Another day of suffering has ended. I was asleep most of the time in the staff room so no one bothered me with tonnes of relief jobs (lotsa teachers took MC after the camp). The ppl on top just wont shut their wagging tongue and rambled on about their very important issues over my head. Mainly outbursts of bad feelings and frustration from others invading my privacy. I packed my books and walked to another corner to mark -- silent protest. Many before me had resorted to retreat yet THEY never get it. THe deaf shouts the loudest.

Back from camp. Poor kids, I'm thankful I didn't have to go through those teambonding acts. Kayaking far out into the sea was fun; away from the maddening crowd. I overheard some gals saying, "Let's let oursevles be carried by the currents then don't have to go back to shore." Hehehe, my slacker sentiments exactly. I read a penguin boring budget paperback about the author's schoo life which was even more boring than mine. Catcher in the Rye still rocks on!

As I was alighting from the bus, someone addressed me from behind. It was somebody farmiliar but as usual, seeing some hundreds kids a day, I can't rem them all. When I step into class today, I realise he is a student from the class I can't stand most. It touched me for a minute that he bothered to greet. He talks and walks eccentric but a nice fellow. Only eccentrics would be nice to ppl I guess. The rest are too busy being normal. I've been taking cabs almost everyday and I enjoyed it. Yeah, I'm getting paid and I'm bragging about it. Talking to the taxi drivers is probably worth every penny of my bloodearned pay. The more interesting conversation today happened during my way back to the condo. The driver got interested when he knew where I was heading for and asked for the condo's name.
"Oh, are the sharks still there?" What sharks? Gosh, I've always taught those are merely big fishes!!
"Erhhhh, you mean the baby sharks?" He's probably mistaken.
"What baby? They must be grown up by now!" He filled me in, "I use to be a housing agent 4 yrs ago. Last time, a young boy tried to climb into the tank and the security guards screamed and panicked."
Wow, I can't believe this place use to be a Jaws themepark! The only condo in Singapore with shark menace. It's unbelieveable what those capitalists do to sell themselves.
The most valuable info from this guy who nearly got me killed by swerving in front of a bus was this Indian coffeeshop not far from the condo which opens till late. The sucky part is that he had to add, "Do you see any tiny bugs on your walls. Be careful, they suck blood when you sleep at night. It only happens in condo."
Wat next? Killer Sharks, blood leeching bugs....... As if there were not enough predators in the office, now there are more at home. It's hard to survive isnt it.
"Try to use the 3-in-1 anti-bacterial paint for your walls. It works very well."

Talk about lesbianism, how would you react if a waitress in a pub sits next to you and presses her buxum on you then give your arm a squeeze every now and then [this question is directed to females only]? I was watching EMOT playing in a pub yesterday and the friendly waitress started talking to me and while I was dozing from the lack of sleep, I found her sitting right next to me and chatted about bands and drinking with patrons. She likes to hold my hand and kisses me on the cheek. Well, unfortunately I was not aroused cos I didn't think much of these moves. But still, I prob wont feel so singled out if she does that to everybody. I think it is my cool haircut.

What's going on in this world now aside from the Live 8 gigs all around the globe which I didn't manage to catch and the local controversies which Miss B.Low is keeping us updated on in her Punchoroma?
I'm trying to settle psychologically into the new place and get work done while controling my compsulsive paraonoia. The pool is great so probably get all you readers down while Euge is busy with morphy jams.
