Hello! I'm ever so thankful my dad's operation was ok. Thanks you Lord for taking care of him. :) How about starting of with yesterdays events? It was gabriel's birthday yesterday. Happy birthday! :) Anyway, the minute I got there I had two pair of eyes that were staring at me. Neither one I knew personally, but more of as gabriel's girlfriend and gabriel's girlfriend's good friend. Gosh. Engilsh fail. ANYWHO, how could you expect me not to be annoyed when they were staring. HELLO? I'm not alien you know? Ever heard of the term homosapiens??? Ok enough about them. The party was TRE-BORING. I hate barbecue's, can't complain about that, I had barely anything to do besides eat because i was pretty much being daoed and the best part was the birthday boy was playing tennis while he had a party going on. Hello? Your party much? I think I wasted a good solid 3 hours when I could have probably been doing something more productive at home. Sorry. But i really didn't have any fun AT ALL. School was school. Again i felt uberly stupid making so many careless mistakes for our chem redox quiz. PURELY CARELESSNESS. Chinese oral was the highlight of the day. Sandra the munchkin was giving me tips for the oral. And telling me which lao shi to avoid. HAHA. Only one lao shi, and UNFORTUNATELY, she had to be my examiner. WHOOPEE!!! Sandra was giving me the 'OMG. You're so FREAKKIN' UNLUCKY!!!' look outside the hall. And the topic for discussion was even better!!! Topic: A lot of teens are using the blog nowadays, why do you think that is so? Talk about AWESOMELY BAD LUCK. Well on the plus side it WASN'T about recycling or global warming. Yawn.
Conversed in chinese (VERY SIMPLIFIED).
Lao shi: Teens nowadays often blog and they spend a lot of time on it. Why do you think that is so?
Me: Erm. (BAD MOVE) I have a blog too. (TOO? FREAKKIN HELL WHO?) I think blog's are where people wish to express their heartfelt moments and want other people to read it and emphathize with them.
Lao shi: Why do you think teens want others to know about their life so publicly?
Me: (Stares at her blankly for about 10 secs) Erm. (DOUBLE BAD MOVE) Because they want others to understand them better because maybe no one else gives much attention to them? Some people have views about quite controversial topics but are afraid to bring it up. But this creates a lot of damage as it may appear in the newspaper? (CRAP)
Lao shi: So it will hurt people?
Me: Yea?
Lao shi: So why do you have a blog? Because it is a trend?
Me: Yea. And I don't like to write my hands get tired? Diaries waste paper and are troublesome. (DOOMED)
Laoshi: So why do you think teen prefer to blog rather than tell their friends directly about their problems?
Me: (Why did it have to be that question?!) Because sometimes some situations are too embarassing or sometimes on may be shy to tell her friend. Then, (That, was in english. OH NO.) sometimes a person is too shy to relate her problem to her friend cause she's afraid her friend will avoid or be weirded out by her and eventually abandon her. Crap. (I ACTUALLY MUMBLED IT.)
Lao shi: Thank you.
Me: Thank you. (Trying desperately not to laugh)
DEAD MEAT.
