" AND... she executes a perfect one-handed base dive!" to the perfectly hard cement floor on the fourth floor open area connector from the admin block to the classroom block. I believe the first words out of my mouth were, "I feel scuffed." As in, scuffed like the bottom of Lesley's shoes when she walks. That area isn't one of the cleanest places to fall, much less get rubbed across the floor. My perfectly executed dive, which I have never actually used until now was made upon running across said area back to class from GE Brekky to IH lesson, because from 2 years' of experience, you never go to IH late or be prepared to face Ms Tan's wrath, especially if she's already had a bad day. Like seriously, one time I was walking past another of her classes, not talking particularly loudly and she called my name and shushed me. Hmph. Anyway, don't get to class after she's already reached (she's pretty punctual, mind you) unless you have a really good reason (for example, falling down trying to get to her class before her). I was all prepared (and my other fellows, Shi Min, Emmaus and Vivian) to "get down on my knees" (stutter and stammer) to "beg for mercy" (explain our reasons and point out my blackened uniform to prove) and she didn't notice. At least, she was to busy to make a fuss. Which was kind of disappointing. I am secretly attention-seeking. But only in good or hilarious ways, mind you.

Hmm. So today there was LA and Mrs Soh was in class and we were taking a pretty long time to get settled down. So happened that there were a few IH notes going around the class and Liau asked me to get something to see if I already had it. And well being in the "first" row, Mrs Soh was standing right in front and I was obviously distracted. I already decided that I already had that worksheet, and she was like, don't touch anything in 3... and then I just dropped it back onto Liau's table as if I had been electrocuted. And she said, "I like that reaction, it was like, 'I don't want it anymore'." And after that I couldn't stop laughing at myself. We had a hilarious day today.

Okay well I didn't wanted to quite talk about this, maybe I'll start another post for what I actually wanted to write about, but since I've already started...

Today we also had a haze drill. For us having bad haze is like a score! Because our 'pathetic' classrooms don't have air-con so there is no excuse for us to stay in our classrooms and if we can't stay in our classrooms, we can't have lessons, much less Sec 2 and Sec 4 combined lessons. Ridiculous. Yay. And for assembly my backyard neighbours are 413! :) But I have Clarie right behind me and she tends to have something to say about everything. Hmm. And I also have Mrs Soh to my right. I wonder how she took Clarie's opinions.

Well, so we're having a herb and etc. garden and a cafe at the once sad little corner of the science block along to sheltered walkway from the guard house boarding school side. Well, I don't have really much to say about it except that it sounds really cool. Wait, okay the first part of that last sentence was a lie, but I have too many emotions going through me right now. I'm quite excited for it, I'm glad it's happening, but its attracting TONS of attention (which I hate) and it's attracting TONS of attention (did I mention I hate that?) And just like the ice-blended drinks and fruits stall, I'll probably never buying anything from it. I'd like to be a barista, but isn't that what everyone wants to be? So, no. I think I'll stay away from it pretty much. But then I can't have a peaceful walk down to the benches anymore because the whole walkway will be pretty much cramped up by coffee-crazed people. The healthy cakes and free trade beans are real nice and all but the introvert in me is pretty much screaming stay the hell away. I wonder what Mrs Soh thinks of me. I just pretty much sat there calmly and at best just shifted in my seat. I didn't "react" to it. I'm going to love the garden. I can give butterfly tips. (Yeah)

So today I also went for SMP. And the lady and I were crying at one point of time because she was talking about something really sad. So we cried. For a while. And I guessed rightly that someone in Mrs Soh's family passed away. I just, kinda, KNOW these things. I mean, the reddened eyes kind of gave it away. And the surges of emotion. Like, when my grandpa passed away, my mum turned up earlier in school one day to talk to the teachers and bring me home. The moment I saw her walk past the classroom, I already knew. And I was holding Huiru's shoulders from behind and was muttering something like, "No, it can't be." And the other time, my great-grandma passed away, and my grandmother called at like 4.30am (seriously? even I only wake up at 5.30 for school) I heard my mum talking, and then later when I woke up for school, mum was all sad, and I knew, she had passed. It wasn't surprising, seeing as to how she had actually out-lived both my grandfathers (that woman is a fighter). We'd not been expecting her to hold on for much longer. I mean, I've only ever seen her shuffle to the toilet and eat at the table (when I was like 5) and then after that she was only ever in bed. As in, I visited every year, but she was bed-ridden. I mean, if I were her, I'd think my life was pretty sucky.

Okay enough morbid stuff, I'm going to go on to my... oh it's even more morbid. Right.

And then I realized it's not fair to call this post coffee shop and not mention BAP's Coffee Shop! Yeah, I really like BAP. (More than SHINee?! I still like Onew!) Yay, spazz. Daehyun is sitting in front of the fountain in Manhattan (Angels take Manhattan) and I think that might be one of the steepest streets in the world? Basically, all shot in USA, some of which I think I recognize.

AHMAGAH! Distracted by DGD!!! My animated show ever!! Even since primary school! I'm not going to reveal the show name, I'm shy.
