Before I forget (becauseIpromisedPriscilla), today we had an English lesson on narratives. (which was a godly blessing considering we have been doing oral non-stop since the beginning of term 3, but had done nothing to help me in my oral whatsoever, since I probably FAILED it. And this side note is getting a little too long...)
ANYWAY.
Mr. Cheng was talking about narratives, and how the best protagonists were based on people author's knew, so they had tne entire character in their mind even before they write their story. (And there was also this weird word in medias res or something that he talked about but I kinda forgot) Well, apparently when students name the protagonists, they actually give the true name of the people they base off from, only varying it by changing the consonants, such that Sharon Tham became Tharon Sham.
So I heard Zhiling messing about with other people's names before she started laughing and went, "Priscilla, your name..."
To the illiterate, Priscilla Too would become Triscilla POO.
Then all of us just kinda started laughing, Cilla, in particular, who practically laughed the entire lesson away partly because she was also in a good mood. (wonder why? =D=D=D) I think both Hui Ting and Priscilla cried laughing..... lollllll..
And oh, I got caught by Mrs. Lee again. This time was for socks, yesterday, hair. And whilst other people like HUITING and TANGYANG weren't wearing XMS socks, I was caught merely because it was BELOW MY FRICKING ANKLE. When I pulled it up, I had to buy socks ANYWAY, because Mrs. Lee wasn't satisfied with my magically reappearing socks, which in truth, wasn't quite my fault because it usually drops below ankle by itself. So anyway, I was forced to pay $3 to buy a new pair of socks, L SIZED and write my name down.
The stupid thing was, those who weren't wearing xinmin socks had to take off their old socks and put on the new ones. I didn't know that, and I took of my socks and threw them away with the others DESPITE IT PERFECTLY ADHERING TO SCHOOL RULES AND REGULATIONS.
Then when I went back to class, Mr. Lee was already inside and I was forced to share a book with Priscilla to do some Human Reproduction questions... And as the lesson proceeded, he boasted about his IT skills and his ability to type more than 100 words per minute. Impressed, I asked him to demonstrate and he tried typing without looking at the keyboard, showing off ("I can also type like this!") and wrote:
Revecca, you evil chi...
It went something like this.. Me: Mr. Lee, you can't even spell my name right! Mr. Lee: Whatever! Your name is now Revecca! .... (later on) Mr. Lee: How many of you have been to moodle? Me: But you only have notes to one chapter. Mr. Lee: Of course, you cannot expect me to upload everything all at one shot, can you. Actually you guys are very lucky, you know. Because this moodle actually gives you a step up before everybody. Me: Yeah, for one chapter. Mr. Lee: Rebecca! You very evil! I know, I'm calling you Revecca from now on!
Which brings the origin to the blatantly horrific misspelling of my name.
.... And is used on Huiting's blog, if you noticed.
Haiz, and EMaths was a nightmare. I'd be grateful if I passed. I'm just trying to make myself feel better that there'd probably be only probability question in the whole 'O' lvl EMath paper.
