Was forced to wake up early in the morning at 9am by my mother who promptly switched off the air conditioning and cut off my ventilation in a bid to get me out of bed fast. After which I bathed and went back to sleep for another 2 hours. This holiday business is turning me into a sloth.

Went shopping for Eugene's birthday present at AMK hub. I now proclaim that it is a MYTH that shopping with guys gets things done a lot faster because guys are just as indecisive and fickle-minded - they just don't bother in recce-ing much, which isn't necessarily a good thing.

Halfway through, the weather, behaving every bit like a petulant child, decided to deal us with an outrageous downpour which totally screwed up plans for outdoor Physical Training and caused the transport back to school to be highly inconvenient. Nevertheless we managed to board bus 88 back to school when another episode unfolded. (My life is full of drama, I tell you)

The moment we plopped ourselves down on the seats, a middle-aged man decided that we looked stupid and decided to come up with a series of unconvincing and irrelevant stories in a futile attempt to gain sympathy and thereby con us into giving him money. He must've been quite stupid, because Yixuan was wearing the school PE t-shirt, and I suppose that being from a reputable school in Singapore, we were less likely to be buying his stupid lies, which were unoriginal and INCOHERENT.

First, he identified himself as a Singapore citizen (to gain credibility? I don't know how the below-average mind works, sorry) and proceeded to talk about how he lost his EZ link card (ORLY????) and international passports TWICE (because absent-mindedness deserves social sympathy and donations from the general public) and how he got chased out of the house (FOR BEING INCOHERENT AND GOOD-FOR-NOTHING MAYBE?) and whatever relative who was sick and asked the MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION: "Do you have coins?"

In case it wasn't a scam, and we were being rude, Kenneth asked "How much?" to which he replied "$5" and he was immediately identified as a Bad Conman. We all said that we didn't have coins of course, surely no one has $5 worth of coins in their wallet at any point of time? "$2 also can..." Kenneth being the nice guy that he is, gave him 40cents (giving him ANYTHING AT ALL would be considered nice already)......

YOU'RE NOT GETTING A SINGLE CENT FROM ME MAN.

At this point, I was pretty amused by the man's awful acting - I think he was attempting to SEEM like he was on the verge of tears, but all he managed to look was CONSTIPATED, and Zhefei and I were trying SO HARD not to laugh that we took out books to read and pretended to be laughing at each other's literature when I was reading a novel about twisted minds. And Kenneth just shut his eyes and pretended to sleep (or was he praying? I don't know) and Yixuan.. Okay well I don't know what he was doing, it was all very awkward.

Realising that we would not give him any money at all, he wanted to borrow our PHONES TO "CALL HIS MOTHER" which obviously none of us obliged, even though it was the second level of a double deckered bus and it would be rather hard to make off with a handphone, I would not allow his dirty hands touching my phone. Then he asked us whether we had PHONE CARDS or not. Oh gosh, this is just stooping to new lows seriously, PHONE CARD ALSO GOOD TO STEAL?!!!?!?!

What a hassle isn't it, just to get 40cents out of 4 people? Here, let me introduce you to a new method of getting money quickly. It's called EMPLOYMENT, DUDE.

We decided that it was too awkward a bus ride, so we decided to pretend that we were getting off and relocate to the lower deck, but Kenneth was too fast for us and flew off the bus, so we made a transfer. We would rather lose 35cents for a bus ride than give it to that good-for-nothing.

Wow that was a very long story.

After we reached school we commenced physical training which involved running the perimeter of RI and RJ and random exercises such as wall sits and assorted things which I am sure you are not interested in. So in order to make my blog more interesting, I am going to provide a picture!!!!!! So awesumzzz.

This has been a sufficiently long post, be happy!
