went out wif ruth, christine, dasen, weihao, jonathan and jessica afta tt... went to vila'ge again... twice in one wk... shldnt haf asked for my steak to be well done... those peeps encouraged mi to try medium rare and medium well done e nxt time... mayb i shld haf stuck to rosti... lolz... took quite a few photos after tt... more to add to my album!!! hahaha...

wonder if i shld go ahead wif writin e letter...

after reading ruth's and christine's blog entries about their funny class scenarios, i really must pen down a few of my own...

Scenario 1
setting: class is making a lot of noise. teacher is very irritated with student A, who is making a lot of noise.
me: so student A, if selling price minus cost price gives a positive value, it means i'm making a lost right?
student A: yes!
(whole class laughs)

Scenario 2
setting: teacher is relieving the english class, which is currently doing expository essays.
me: (writes this question down on the board. The trade in weapons can never be justified. Discuss.) in this world ruled by men, do you realise that even their weapons are made to look like their own genitals? think about missiles! they're long and slim and tapered towards the end. and they put a little explosive on top. when it's fired, it heads straight towards its target and when it reaches, it explodes and scatters itself as far as possible and lives are involved.
(whole class shaking with uncontrollable laughter)

Scenario 3
setting: teacher steps into class for the first time.
me: so do you have a maths rep? (class remains silent) who wants to volunteer? (class remains silent) ok... so who don't want to volunteer... (3 hands shoot up) ok... (points at student A who raised his hand first) you'll be my maths rep!

Scenario 4 (this happened with 2 classes)
setting: teacher writes some questions on the board.
me: (writes "You have struck lottery today" on the board, followed by a list of students' names) all right, these lucky people please come up and present your answers on the board. i never assign anyone to any question, so if you're fast you can get the easy ones!
(students ABCDEFG rush up to the board and markers)
student A,C and F: eh, dun want... i want this question!
student B: eh cher... which question i do ar?

Scenario 5
setting: teacher is teaching. class making a lot of noise.
me: the class diary starts today right? i have to grade you on your class behaviour you know?
(class quietens down instantaneously.)

like christine said... itz nt jz fun and laughter in the classroom... itz also fun and laughter sometimes in the staff room...

setting: ruth is marking journals. christine and i slide on our chairs towards her to help her with some of her struggles in grammar.
Ruth: is angry an adjective or verb?
Christine: it can be an adjective and verb.
me: it depends on the context in which you are using the word. in "i'm angry", it's a verb. (i don't know if i was saying the right thing la. but for some strange reason, it sounded correct at that time.)
Christine: "angry christine", it's an adjective.
Ruth: *seems very enlightened* OHH!!! so ANGRINESS is a noun lah!!
Christine and I : !!!!!!!!!!!!!! ANGER RUTH!!! ANGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(breaks into helpless laughter)

after this scenario, the 'angriness' became a laughin pt for christine n mi... hahaha... still laugh like mad when i tink abt it...
