# Eat The Fat and Drink The Sweet
Thursday
Lemme fast forward to 21's History lesson. An American lesson, rated X. They were rather fast to reach class which is of course a welcomed rarity. And soon the video was on. Although i had to warn them of the impending nudity and mostly-f-up dialogues.
Once again i needed the miracle of screening 120 minutes in 6000 seconds. Well, i tried to help it along by skipping a family fight scene, and a brother to brother moment and went along with what i think was crucial to the story. Also skipped the journey to school a little. But mostly, it was there.
What was the =.= part of the movie? Watching it for the third time. But it actually connected more the third time i watched it. Yup, and the curb stomping and final scene still hurts everytime i watch it. Today was the end of movie week and it ended with a few in tears, some in disgust while other lost in dreamland. Oh well, i hope some things were actually beneficial, other than expanding ur vocab by one word.
The ending was rather silent and solemn, and didn't have to debrief much. 21 seemed to be stuck to the chair as they were reluctant to leave, but lunch was the greater temptation in the end. I too had to rush for lunch as it was relief for Siok's class next. 09
They were rather, hmm, blur for most of the lesson although i did try my best to teach them essay skills. More of a recap actually, but most of them lost the caps already so it was from the start again. Tried to get responses but most were in this form. "Er". "Huh". So i settled on direct teaching with them taking notes. Dunno if it worked. All e best Siok!
Then it was off to 03 with the final groups presenting. Rather normal, but more quiet than usual. I guess genocides aren't the most "lively", pun intended, thing to study. Then it was the end of my day, so i went to slack with the SC, had a nice dinner with some of the guys and met Hosea and Annabelle both at the hawker opposite TJ. Cool coincidence eh?
Nice night to sleep. Yay.
Friday
Day didn't start off too nicely cuz i couldn't wake up early. Oh well, it was freezig cold too. I need a washing machine too. Irritating. Seriously. Three months of living on my own hsa taught me this. Things that are a must for every house
-WASHING MACHINE
-Ironing board, complete with a working iron.
-Microwave oven
-Water dispenser
-Mattress
And today was a nice day because i got back my EZLink card from Siok who kindly took it for me after i left it at the Siglap CC after badminton. Then she was absent for two days so i had to slowly sneak my way in to the staffroom when other ppl opened the door. Finally!! Freedom.. to be confined in the staffroom.. err.. haa..
Final round of presentations today. 21 started off well and ended rather well too. But it was 06 that was rather sad. I admired the effort put in by Verena and co., but time management needs to be improved so that u won't have to do such rush jobs. Sorry to spoil all ur efforts, but i did try to get the class going but it was a rather slow start....
Then i was free and decided to try, try i say, try to mark GP Newspaper Articles with some o6 ppl at the marquee but it didn't turn out too well. Enjoyed a soya bean drink instead. Of course that was after saying all the best to Sek who was leaving for her match against IJ. I think. Sorry to Yumei for taking so long to buy e soya beans. Haha, Sek more important. Lol. I know guys bball won, even thrashed their opponents. No idea abt b or v ball girls though. Update me ya?
Then it was off to scroom. Slacked a lot. Marked some work. Slacked a little bit more. Talked with Hui Min, met Verena, Aruna, Diantha and a few other current 06 ppl in LT1. LEO meeting apparently. Then finally went down to Cartel but met JoJo on the way. And James too. Yay!
Reached cartel and took our reservation for 25. I thought it was too much but in the end, it was jz nice. YES, 25. Oh, what were we doing there? Celebrating Gabriel and Hubert's bdays. Went across to draw money and im seriously becoming broke with all this ex dining. Met Ying Chuan and Winnie opposite and waited for like an hour for everyone.
Finally Gabriel arrived blindfolded with jeans! Strapped to an iPod to cut off his hearing and led in to Cartel!! Ppl took turns taking pictures with him while he was utterly clueless. Some even bullied him lar... cough..FX...cough...! I must say i was innocent of all this.
Had a big meal of St Louis Pork Ribs! Then even had cake. Yup. Ate the fat and drank... water. Haha. Took 12 back. Yay. Oh, i saw the councillors were at the adventure tower at the time i was passing by TJ. Hope ur emo-stayover was fun.
