i've been inspired (after months and months of annoyance) to do a list of
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND(s): (this shall be an ongoing list)
1. how my dad can turn up the volume on the radio tuned to the uncle of all morning shows on 958fm. never mind that, but during the YOU HUA ZI JI SHUO segment. which must be the most MOST annoying thing since.. whatever. (if you are a fellow sufferer, my sympathies, and let us thank god that there are such things called mp3 players.)
2. what the boliao uncles and aunties of singapore do in their spare time.
they either write in to lianhe zaobao to complain about judges not being fair on that superstar competition (cos some eliminated contestant is student of some judge. don't know. don't care), or they call up YOU HUA ZI JI SHUO and complain about culling cats (still??) or peanuts (ha ha)or some random kid making noise at the void deck of their HDB apartments.
i'm sure it'd do a fat lot of use, you know, complaining on a segment on a show which no one listens to except eighteen year old students going to school on her dad's car who has no choice cos dad doesn't understand class95, and then subsequently make fun of you on her blog. oh and i'm sure the fact that it airs at the ungodly hour of 6.45 to 7.00 is just a coincidence. and the fact that it is only 15 mins. (i may be wrong. but 15 mins of those obviously memorised speeches is more than enough)
3. how my mom can stand those korean dramas. (i for one, loved winter sonata, but there are terrible exceptions).
those characters either cry throughout the whole show or yell. and when they cry, i mean CRY. like howling-cry. of course that's good acting for you. but all it does is make me want to ask my mom to please turn down the volume.
that or they YELL really loudly at each other. like HOWLING-yell. and they do it SUDDENLY. so that more than often not, i get scared real bad.
4. how some people, when are actually saying that basically means you-stupid-lazy-bum-of-a-student-who-does-not-participate-in-class-discussions-so-you-are-a-misfit!, they can make it sound real nice, but at the same time, not betraying the ill-disguised tone of disgust in the voice.
(i think all these was just to make me feel guilty. but i do not buy it. sorriee!)
ahem. neither do i buy dota.
5. how people, girls in particular, can backstab each other, seconds after said person walks away.
true incident during music fest:
group of year one girls sitting behind us, bitching about practically everyone they know.
their senior walks past them
"oh look it's *****!" -air kiss air kiss- (of course not. but you know what i mean) they exchange pleasantries. chatchatchat.
five minutes later the senior leaves.
"oh my gosh. she shouldn't have worn that pair of jeans, her ass so big, makes it look even bigger!" "yeah!" -snickersnicker-
sigh. nice girls and all yeah?
6. what the whole point of having a inter jc blog competition is.
7. what's the big deal about being the no. 1 favourite jc blog!. and why people actually bothered to do a live-ad just to ask people to please vote. must be to win raffles lah. what else. cannot win them (in most things) so must win this.
oh this is nice. to be continued.
