The Corpse Looks Dead
By the way, calling her a ‘heartless loser’ for what she did is pretty much indirectly insulting yourself as well.
Every insult you spewed out at her was merely bouncing back to you, do you realise?
I feel sorry for him, but it wasn’t as if she suddenly thought, “Hmm. Hey, why don’t I break up with him, you know, just for kicks? Then afterwards, I can laugh my ass off and then take a shower.” Unless that was actually what you were thinking when you did what she did.
And “Don’t talk about cool when you don’t know anything about it”? That’s the most bimbotic talk I’d ever heard from you.
I never realised being “cool” mattered such a great deal to you. It’s disappointing and pitiful. I thought you were more mature than that.
If being cool defines how enriching my life is, then I should be spiritually impoverished by now.
Oh, the irony and hypocrisy.

“A corpse is sprawled across a pavement in front of a HDB flat. This suggests that.. That… Um.. That the body is dead.”
The prescence of a corpse suggests that it’s dead. That is what came out of my grotesque mouth. WHY JULIA WHY!
The examiner must’ve thought I was demented. Yah, the corpse looks pretty dead, man.
Before the oral exam started, Rui Wen came back to the holding room from the toilet, reporting to us what she saw for the picture. She claimed that there was a body sprawled across the pavement with a pool of blood surrounding it. A woman was standing next to him with a “WTF!” look.
We all began to speculate possibilities of the death of the dude. We even went as far as the dude probably had bet a load of money on the World Cup finals and was in debt. As a result, he killed himself. Hoorah.
When it came to my turn, I realised that the “body” didn’t look very body-like. It looked like a bunch of.. nothing. It was just a bunch of pure nothingly-shit! So I stuck with the “dead dude” story. Halfway through explaining the picture though, I realised I should’ve just left out the corpse part and simply elaborated on the killer litter aspect.
The more I think about it, the more I know I absolutely, disgustingly screwed up.
It was not a body, I’m sure now. It was just.. UGH I DON’T KNOW, just something which doesn’t have organs and isn’t dead!
I can’t believe I actually said something worthy of an IQ of 30.
Anyhoo, TK Golden Run today was… How should I put it.. Exciting, panicky and mundane.
Let’s start with panicky.
I woke up at 5am, in the usual I’m-so-groggy-that-I’m-gonna-kill-someone mood.
The mood remained constant up till 6am when I reached Clementi MRT station.
Teng Hui was supposed to meet me at 6am at the station, but by 6.15, he was still no show.
So my mood began to rise. Where is that Sid?! One thing I can’t stand is people blowing me off, or in other words, pang seh me. I doubt Teng Hui would do something like that, but I’ve been wrong before about other bozos.
Just as I was thinking about soup, he emerged from the train! That boy ran out of the train to run to me, all the while the doors were beginning to close. Despite my maniacal gesturing towards the closing doors, he insistently continued to run like an actor in a Korean love serial on the beach chasing his diseased lover, then I yelled, “GET IN, MAN!” which broke the ambience and he brought along a Time magazine on the train. Awesome.
Okay. Panicky section finished.
Now comes Mundane.
Sarah, Paula, Julien and I walked around the whole Bedok Reservoir, along with three quarters of the school.
The other quater were either happily slacking at the stations or running. Noobs! Mwaha.
Um. Mundane part complete. Boring event leads to boring explanation,
Now the exciting segment.
Ming Jie was being his ultra cute self and danced for the Talentsearch thingy.
Ohmybarnacles, he was so cute that we were just screaming, overwhelmed by his cuteness. Cute cute cute cute arrgghh.
That’s wasn’t the exciting part yet. Um, somewhat, but not really.
Rika and Zaki started dancing, and after their performance was over, the emcees took over.
What they said really shocked the flooshy out of me. They began to insult Zaki’s dancing, proceeded by:
“At least Rika was good.”
Upon hearing this, my jaw hit the ground so hard that there’s a bruise now.
I turned around and saw that Paula’s jaw was sharing the same appearance.
How awfully insensitive that statement was, and furthermore, to be proclaimed to the entire school over a microphone by an annoying emcee. Yes, I find her annoying. Why? Because she touched me inappropriately. Once she touched my stomach, thinking I was pregnant due to period cramps, and touched my legs for God-knows-WHAT reaon. No one touches me unless you’re someone whom I’m actually acquainted with
Anyway, that comment merely increased my dislike for her. I insult people for a reason, and that is because they’ve deliberately done something annoying in the first place, like touching me. But to heartlessly make fun of what might be another person’s passion? That’s just pure evil.
Later during tuition, I was sitting there, thinking about sleeping, then Liz’s and Eunice’s prescence suddenly became surreal. I couldn’t believe I’m lucky enough to gain such friends. Lizard and I talked for a while, before her mum came, and ‘heartless loser’ she is not. Yah, as the cliche says, dudes come and go, but friends stay. Yay. Ooh it rhymes.
