Do the honours. You tell me what happened. ._.

That was... a mighty strange way to wake up. ._. But it sure is more effective than any alarm clock though.

As it goes, I had the strangest dream. ._.

It starts of with me in a staff room for goodness knows what reason! D: (I soon realise I almost forget myself but wait a little.) The place is unfamiliar, and I get lost (being directionally challenged as I am) walking about into strange teacher cubicles of which the adjective applies to both the teachers and the cubicles. I realise it isn't my fault I'm walking about aimlessly in circles, it just what the place was intended to do! The whole place is like a maze. @_@ Still with me?

I feel uneasy about my surroundings in general (well, it is a maze. ._.) and find an empty room to hide in. Cardboard boxes line the walls erratically and a worn out table and a couple of broken chairs are in there too. I look out a window and realise the school (as my subconscious tells me it is) is barricaded with a high wall. Not to mention the place is eerily quiet. And quiet. ._. No students anywhere from what I can see. I look around more in panic and see a stairwell close by. Checking the coast is clear, I try to open the door which leads to it and it opens. o.o What joy! Following which there is an announcement requesting someone to check on that stairwell. Ah. Killjoy. Anyway, this disturbs me so I run down and down and bump into the person meant to check on the stairs. Thankfully, she doesn't drag me by the collar and tie me up but is surprisingly nice and seems to glow from excitement that someone isn't affected by 'their scheme' and is trying to escape. HUH?
Anyway, she hurries along and I'm about to continue running when I hear struggling and dragging from the floor below. It's dark and I can't quite make out what's happening but another student who seems to be Yi Ting is in the clutches of some man. Thud. The door closes. But that can't be right? o_o I tell myself I'm imagining things and run to the ground floor. I try not to look too suspicious and find a class to blend in with.

There's a break in what happens here, but it continues with me hearing an announcement regarding Hsu Yi Ting's capture for attempting to break out. WHAT. ._. Oh great, so now I've dragged her into a pot of water I unintentionally boiled (if that's logically possible). Guilty and worried, I take it upon myself to get her back.

Another gap in my memory or the dream itself, and here I am, at a stairwell. I depress one of those white squarish buttons our school has to open the door. I look back and damn! Careless mistake! A teacher in the vicinity smells a rat (or a penguin, since I suppose they smell fishy) and tails me. 'Ms Tan...?', she calls. I speed up, trying to make my footsteps sound like heels, and click the door open on the second floor as I pass it, in hope that she would fall for it. Apparently, this one's not stupid. I pass the 3rd floor and open another door. I'm almost at the top floor and out of option when another male teacher pops out from outside on the 3rd floor and I hear him ask her why she looks so flustered in relief as I slip out the 4th floor. I flee down the corridor and down a different staircase to the 3rd floor, praying it'll make it harder for them to find me. I climb into an empty classroom through the window to rest and get them off my tail for the time being. I wait for a long time (relatively speaking), watching the clock from beneath the side tables, until I hear more than a couple of sets of footsteps go by. I look out from behind the classroom door, and notice those opposite have the curtains drawn, so I draw the curtains I just notice in the class I'm in. By the way, I realise that the classroom is mine. ._. (This makes some kooky sense since it the first class if you turn left in the science block, you know?) I find my belongings, and am about to take them with me as night falls. ._.

Sometime in the middle of the night, 'cause I'm obviously in no mood to be out like a light, I get up and try again. In case you're wondering, it seems the staff rooms are all on the 4th floor, so I reckon Yi Ting would be held there. Anyway, I go up to the 4th floor again, and peer into a room leading to the office. I sense someone coming so I duck behind the back door of the room so he can't see me. The teacher that was tailing me before is sitting inside the room at a desk. The room is practically decorated with colourful files. ._. They start to argue about something I can't quite hear, and the male teacher is so fed up that he takes some solid and dumps it into a test tube of liquid (both of which he found on the table. Tsk tsk, lady teacher sure keeps some dangerous things around), protects his respiratory system with a handkerchief, and sticks the test tube under the woman's nose. She faints. o.o Apparently that gives me an idea for chloroform so I go to the science labs. ._. Don't ask me why a school laboratory would have chloroform in its inventory, but then again, the world in the dream is warped, no?

Yeah. Anyway. I get chased again and since being chased is boring let's cut to the chase and continue with what happens after it. This time, I'm sneaking around the 4th floor again, waiting for a teacher's meeting to start. Loitering around the toilet, I seize the opportunity to knock a teacher out (not with chloroform, I didn't manage to get any~ D: But crudely, with a stick. THWAP.) to steal her clothes, and lock her in the janitor's storeroom. ._. I walk out of the toilet and see a crowd of students walking up the stairs. One of them is Sai Ying for goodness knows what reason. I go up to her and call her name. She looks at me with a puzzled look on her face, and tells me she doesn't know who I am and says her name is 'Ying Tse'. What?! Yay my dream gets weirder and stranger by the second. -.- I see another teacher walk past, scoot away from the flock of students (they felt like sheep for some reason), act like I'm ambling towards the staff room as well, and hear her mumbling about something being suspicious about people who 'pretend to have a stomachache'. Ah. Perhaps the one I knocked out? ._.

Uh. No idea why I haven't been caught yet either. ._.

Anyway, I sneak off again (somehow back in hongzi and not the ugly powder blue jacket the teacher owned with looked creepily like the new school jacket) and break into a mad dash down the stairs the seemingly incessant crowd of students are walking up. Run, run, run, to the first floor and I run into... Susi?! ._. I left and right and spot Sarah and Ching Yee with her too! Susi, Ching and Sarah are half obscuring the '武' on their jackets with their arms, or by wearing another jacket over. Shrieks of excitement and disbelief break out~ :D But cue the anticlimax. The PA system blares something about spotting illegal wushu jackets 'cause we were disbanded. I scan the area frantically and spot a teacher staring right at us with a microphone in hand. Reflex action: RUN! (through the canteen which has no tables or chairs whatsoever. ._.) We catch up about what we suspect happened to the school and about memory erasing and how wushu people still remember who they are although everyone else has gone cuckoo(whut?) and them holding on to their jackets as mementos by hiding them from the school, which burnt all CCA jackets they managed to get students to cough up or locate while running. The end seems to be in sight; the wall blocks the road to freedom! Eh. Now we jump up a bin for leverage, grab onto a water pipe to swing ourselves halfway up the wall, climb up one of those ladder like metal rungs you see in big storm drains and get over a sharp pokish wire thing. Maybe there was a moat but I wasn't looking on the ground. Yay! ... ... ... Almost. Taking in the surroundings, we're on this sandy strip of ground in between the wall we just climbed and the one in front of us. So we make our descent. Susi, Ching Yee, then Sarah... gets stuck on the wire. To make things worse, cars start rolling out the driveway, and the principal (some uncle going through mid-life crisis and hair loss issues) spots us, gets out of his car and scales the wall too! AH? D: And he's quite fast for an old man. He tugs on Sarah's leg so we kick him a few times before he surrenders and lets go. In the nick of time before reinforcements arrive, Sarah is free and we sprint after the other two. Apparently the cars of the first batch drove after them, so we all take a long meandering route until we lose them and run across the overhead bridge.

And that bridge's the last thing I see before I wake up in confusion. ._.

Ludicrous. Preposterous. Ridiculous. I know. But what can I say? I'm not the one who thought it up~ :D Kinda.

Damn the whole dream is like fanfic material. =_= It even includes cliffhangers: What happens to Yi Ting? Where's Grace and Ah Bean? Why are we running to HC? How come my classroom was deserted? What happens to the other students? What's wrong with the school? By the way, it was expanded with shiny things like glass and metal. ._. But still only has 4 storeys. Which is good.

I should turn it into a story to amuse the person in Taiwan~ =_=

*SIGH* I THINK I JUST MISS YOU PEOPLE TOO MUCH. D: It's boooooring at home! Haha Ching Yee and Sarah you should expand on the idea you fanfiction writers. xD

Comments?

I own at cooking weird food. .-.

Hello!

Haha.

As the title says, I'm starting to realise I cook weird things. That is... I ate egg fried with green apple and discovered it wasn't really nice, so I put copious amounts of black pepper and chilli oil over it so it became edible. ._. Hmn. Did you know that if you want to cook only one bowl of rice you have to boil it in a pot? :D Yes, you have to. 'Cause the rice cooker can't cook such a small amount of rice. -_-

Heh. I have concluded that my batch does strange things with our limbs and such. ._. You should see Susi put both legs behind her head. Or Venus wrap her arms around herself from the back and flap. It's astounding. ._. And Yi Ting with her twistable arm. Plus Grace and her bendable fingers. o.o

It's Earth Day today, so the lights will be off from 8.30 to 9.30pm. But I think I might as well not switch on any lights to begin with. 8D

Yay. This has been a short post. =3

ひさしぶりだな～！

Helloooooooo. xD

Especially you, Yi Ting. ._. 'Cause for all I know no one else reads my blog.

Yay! We're all back from Graces camp today! :D Who knew going to an etiquette camp could result in injuries like bleeding blisters and muscle aches? =\ But it's more due to the lousy mattress and running around in heels than anything. xD

Don't ask me for photos 'cause I didn't bring a camera there. ... ... ... Ask other people for photos. ._.

The amount of food they give us there is crazy! We eat 5 times a day. o_o

Hmn. I am at a loss for words today. =x

I need water~~~ -.- *goes get some*




Hah.

Okay, on a side note, which means the next comment is unrelated to Graces. ._. Which was quite uneventful anyway.

I discovered that I don't mind (and occasionally quite like) noisy music as long as there's a tune to it and the volume is turned down! o.o Like for example, 'Welcome to the Black Parade'. ._. Just got reminded of it on the bus ride back when 4/9 was singing it~ xD I think that's a nice song, although the singer's... shouting his head off by the end of the song. o_o

Oh yeah! I remember something eventful from camp~ Most of us are dismissed from school so we take a bus back to school, but some people who live around the area are allowed to leave from the venue we were at. Our monitress is one of them, so she left from the place a lot earlier than the rest of us, who had to wait for the bus.

After a short drive, the bus uncle stops to answer a phone call. As we wait for him to finish, guess who we see? xD Joy! <3 All 30 people in the bus start waving around like windmills in a typhoon and hollering, whooping, screaming and making noise in all manner possible so we sound louder than a fish market and make it look like our destination is the IMH. =x And wonderful Joy drags her luggage into the distance, looking like a lonely lost soul... ... ... and DOESN'T notice us. ... At all. o_o AAAAAAAHHHH! We've yet to tease her about it. :D

(Oh but thank goodness she had to wait at the traffic light to cross the road, so we got her attention in the end after driving past that. xd Hee~)

I doubt I have more to say. ._. Tongue-tied, remember?

Oh but ASK TO SEE THE OTHER WUSHU PEOPLE'S PHOTOS! They looked awesome! >D

Seriously, bye. =)

The following has to do with yam:

As you probably know, weird conversations come up over dinner at my place. xD This time 'round, my grandfather's cooked yam soup as one of the dishes of tonight's dinner.

My sister: Why are you eating that?
Me: *in the middle of eating yam* It's nice.
Sis: You like?
Me: Yeah, I like yam. =D I like yam paus, and yam cake too.
Sis: *incredulous* Hah? Do you eat yam ice cream too?
Me: =3 Hmn? Nice what.
Sis: ... ...

Hah.

By the way, contrary to popular belief yam is not an obscure tuber, but in fact is nice to eat. I personally have no idea why, but it tastes nicer than a potato. ... ... ... The potato itself has not much of a distinct taste, but that's not the point. ._.

"Yams are high in vitamin C, dietary fiber, vitamin B6, potassium, and manganese; while being low in saturated fat and sodium. Vitamin C, dietary fiber and vitamin B6 may all promote good health. Furthermore, a product that is high in potassium and low in sodium is likely to produce a good potassium-sodium balance in the human body, and so protect against osteoporosis and heart disease.
Yam products generally have a lower glycemic index than potato products, which means that they will provide a more sustained form of energy, and give better protection against obesity and diabetes."

Courtesy of wikipedia~ xD Heheh.

Why am I still stoning. =\

Eh~ I picked up a new anime to watch~ xD 'Black Cat'! It's nice~ ^^ But it's so hard to find episodes. D: I've resorted to watching Chinese subs on a China video sharing website. o_o

AH. ._. Six episodes in and it's sad already. o.o

And episode 7 is taking FOREVER to load! And's it has an important turning point in it. D: D: D:

Heheh, our batch has taken to having extra training *cough*picnic*COUGH* during Friday lunch. xD

Rah. My mum just whacked me over not being interested in an advertisement of a stationery bike in her newspaper. =( Random~

._.

Things you discover when holidays get too boring.

Hah. I shall post something 'cause Yi Ting's complaining it's dead again. xD

Hmn, as the title says I'm just gonna give you a list of things that seem to happen during holiday season. o.o

1) You find you have to rethink the way your cupboard is organized. D:
Have you realized that somehow you have so many sets of uniform yet? I'm beginning to think I ought to not wear pajamas, but wear my PE shirts to sleep instead. ._. It'll save a lot of money, won't it? I found that some way or the other, I have a lack of black shirts. o_o

2)You start haunting your own house.
No, no, no, not because the boredom of holidays drove you to the point of suicide, but 'cause your regular sleeping (or lack-of-sleep) habits have caused your insomnia to plague you again. ._. You know, the worst part of it is, you have all the freedom to take siestas, and so each day your bedtime gets pushed forward an hour. My current record is 3am. DDD:

3)You spend an unimaginable amount of time on your bed.
Eheheh. =\ I'm beginning to think I hibernate. I slept at 2, and woke up at 2. Beat that. D<

4)You discover and start to pick on the many bad habits your family members seem to have.
For instance~ The fact that your mum holds down the toilet flush for less than a second when she goes in the middle of the night, just for you to find out what's lurking there the next morning. =_= I really didn't need to see that. Or that your sister drops/pulls out her hair on the floor surrounding your bunk bed. ('Cause there's nothing better to do, and so you decide to sharpen your sweeping skills.) Hmn. How come I never noticed when I was doing SIAs?

5)You start getting inspired at the most inhumane hours. (Perhaps due to the state your brain is in when you're just about to fall asleep, eh?)
I designed a convertible tuxedo jacket in my head. ._. For intellectual propert-ical reasons, I shall not post a picture of it on the net, just in case someone needed to get inspired for clothing design, types in 'tuxedo jacket', and 'PING!', steals mine.

6)You find the end of holidays inching closer and closer, but you convince yourself there's more than enough time to finish what you need to get done.
And~ End up slacking the time away. D: Personally, I wasted a couple of days watching Ouran, and a couple more looking up Mayday's ancient songs, and even more reading random mangas which I have since forgotten the names of. =_= I'm beginning to want to hate myself.

7)You actually want to reorganize your room. o_o
Believe it or not, I've decided to use boxes instead of shelves, 'cause I reckon if I put all the things concerning a certain subject into their respective boxes, I'll never lose anything again. Good eh? But I doubt my mum, the 'traditional home-organizer', will ever approve.

8)You have staring competitions with the animals at home.
In fact, I don't mind if you hold a singing competition with Bluey. xD I reckon you'd win in the terms of voice quality, but lose in the terms of Bluey being much more capable at 耍帅-ing. To add salt to your battle wounds, you'll most definitely lose to my Dad's fish, for the simple fact that fish don't posess eyelids. (As another point to note, I've seen them sleeping with their eyes open.)

9)You seem to have lost weight though you haven't had training in approx. 2 months?!
Alright, I admit this probably has nothing to do whatsoever with the holidays, but hmn, it's taken place during the holidays, hasn't it? Ah... No idea about this one, but perhaps it has something to do with not having to eat breakfast in the morning 'cause I'm not awake in the morning. D: *HIBERNATION HIBERNATION*

10)You kill time by thinking up lists like this one.
I mean, how 无聊 (Read in hokkien, yeah?) am I to be doing this? :D

By the way, SARAAAAAH! If you happen to chance on this post, I'm gonna ask you again if you have the piece of paper our batch quiz was on, or if you remember what everyone's classic expressions were like. xD I only recall you (i.e. Sarah) have this one: =3 with flowers everywhere. ._.

Eh~ I shall go back to reading manga. And regretting my procrastination much, much later. ._.

^^

Haha, EOYs have been over for a couple of days now. xD

Whee~ The school gave us more than a week to stay at home and slack! Hahaha, Sarah was wondering if it was a guilty conscience for depriving us of breaks earlier on.

Hmn. I've been trying to find ways to spend my extra time. o.o Heh. Currently, sleeping ranks No. 1. ._. And I found a random manga to read~ Although it's shoujo, it's slightly different and really funny. xDD

Eh, I had batchmates over today. =D 'Cause we needed to finish the gifts for our seniors. Grace is really pro at designing! =D Ching Yee was going nuts reading my manga collection and cleaning fish tanks on facebook. o_o

Speaking of facebook, our batch quiz will be out real soon! Ah. ._. But I haven't finished drawing the expressions.

Heh. I got inspired by Gekidou. =D Working on a drawing right now, though currently there's half a person on it that looks like he doesn't have any clothes on (Wait. He really doesn't.) and a circle in the top left hand corner that's supposed to be the moon. o.o

Is it just me or am I sounding overly high? ._.

Ah well. It's 1:20 am! D:
