Wentao is psychic! I had just taken out my pad and started practicing when he started a convo to discuss double strokes and its associated technicalities... How fun :)

Who: Me + Si Kai
When: 9.XX am, Friday. CT period.
Where: Storey one Teaching Block
How: -.-

What:
Ben: Have you been practicing?
Si Kai: Nope *grins*

Why: Si Kai is a naughty boy.

All in all: Very disappointing.

And then Yu Chen comes walking along, oblivious of the two of us, and then WHAM Si Kai rams into him. Whatever. Our sec 1s are hyper. And I bet they won't read this post :)

After school on the same day I was really tempted to ask Yu Chen whether he has been practicing. Jerald remember you pointing to Yu Chen outside the ORA thingy? Yeah.

And they complain that they are noobs....


6 days to next band prac. Good luck sec 1s.

One. Think of 17 short bits of interesting stuff about yourself. And they've gotta be true.
Two. Come up with 3 false statements regarding yourself, but for fun's sake keep them in the threshold of believability.
Three. Jumble them all up together and list them in any order.
Four. Post them on LJ *ahem Blogger* and let people guess which the five THREE false ones are!
Five. Get 5 others to do the same.


1) I was born on 1/1/1993. Ahem. (Yu Chen and Si Kai will probably not see this anyway... so it's safe to put it here xD)
True. Need I say more?

2) My favourite colour is yellow. Ever since primary school.
True. In fact it is so for as far back as I can remember, which is primary school. Yellow is so nice! Contradictingly/Ironically I've never been in yellow house ever. Only Jerald did not fall for this. And by the way "primary school" can always mean P6 ;)

3) I spent one year with Chess as my CCA.
True. Then I changed to GEP in P4 and became a band member, because there wasn't vacancy for Chess. And I never regretted that move.

4) I have only lanned four times as of date: Invest'05, BatchOuting, BandCamp'06 and Investiture'06.
True. Though Jianwei still failed to make me "addicted to LAN" as he said in the canteen *sobs* in the afternoon of invest. o.O I still remember.

5) In my secondary one days, I found strokes boooooring.
True. Sectionals was hell to me... about the same as drills. No offence Jianwei...

6) I had an appendix operation when I was six years old. They removed it from my body. Ewww.
True. It left a scar on my skin which lasted for years and I still have documents relating to that. Ewww.

7) Chem is my favourite subject. YAY CHEM!!!!
True. But by a small margin. Maths was my favourite subject in primary school, primarily because Science never touched on the periodic table. And when my father bought me a Chemistry O level book in P6 I got sooooo engrossed in it I neglected PSLE mugging. Ok, not that bad, but I especially love reading the chapter of Periodic Table and Reactivity over and over again. Of course, while Chem can help in my future, can Maths do the same? No offence Kinchun.

8) I am against SE/GE merger. Boo merger....
True. Some of you would occassionally hear me whining about merger, though it is in the "best interests" of the teachers...

9) Honey in bread tastes nice.
True. IT DOES!!! Come on, it takes so sweet... all of you should like it too, provided you don't have a feud with honey in the first place. Jerald and Kinchun try it sometime...

10) I cried at home after going back from lanning on Investiture '06.
True. Like Jerald, except that his was after lilies. And until now, I've still not gotten over it.

11) I don't have a blog of my own. That is why this is being posted here.
FALSE!!! Confession: I did have a blog. It was in Sec 1 that I made it, not as old as the Cheungsters, and since Jerald had wanted to make a blog for two years (right?), all I can say that I was laggy. However I got bored of updating it and deleted it. Anyway benjaminni.blogspot.com is a lame URL. No one got this correct.

12) My (Piano) Theory grade is null because I have never taken any theory exam yet. Though I've been educated about theory... what a shame compared to my practical xD
FALSE!!! I got (revived) music lessons somewhere in mid-sec 1. Then I took theory this year, but never revealed it to anyone. I had it on the same date as Jerald, and the same time. But because his was Grade 6, and mine one grade below, we did not get to see each other. At least we didn't. If not I'd freak out. By the way I was almost late, got out of bed late :( No one got this either!

13) I love keeping long fingernails... well at least before I came into band :)
FALSE!!! Duh. I only keep long fingernails because I'm lazy to cut them. NO ONE GOT THIS RIGHT???

14) Mr Jee rocks! xD
True. Need I say more?

15) I never used MSN messenger until one of you introduced it to me (Jerald, right?)
True. As said before, I'm a lagger :(

16) The new S Rajaratnam block is WAYYY COOL!
True. Why did EVERYONE choose this? The block is cool! The bulletin boards are made of strings! The project rooms and the cupboards are so fun for laughs! And the view... so niiice, up on the 5th floor. Yes, I hate the move because I need to climb 5 storeys, but the block is COOL, and that is why this statement is true.

17) I still watch cartoons on TV.
True. Mostly because my sister watches them. I go to the computer when girly shows start coming up.

18) Brian is the bestest senior ever. (Awww...)
True. *ahem*

19) I loved Sec 1 Orientation camp, I loved my PSLs, and I loved my class. In sec 1.
True. But, RI kids being RI kids, destroy everything our PSLs gave us... the special item from PSGM that we recieved should've been gone by now, our flag was used as a weapon -.- and yeah. No one remembers about them anymore, perhaps except me. But I still loved my PSLs, and I love my class. WE GOT SECOND BEST CLASS AWARD! Woohoo!

20) My register number in class is less-than-three. No other meaning intended.
True. Jerald go re-check. It is 2. Don't know why Zhufeng and Anon took this one as false, though.

Results:
Jayyh: 0
Brian: 0
Zhuf: 0
Anon: 0
Togo: 0


Actually, Jerald should have gotten 2/3, but because I started giving out false answers, he fell for it and now ended up like that xD. Sorry for my burst of cunningness! *ahem* Try harder next time :)

=D

Tasty.

Also from the above website:


It all began in junior high gym class in Merrick, Long Island. Two boys, running around the athletic field, had found a common bond. Ben Cohen & Jerry Greenfield hated running, but they loved food. In 1978 they decided to go into business together. With diplomas from a $5 correspondence course & their life savings ($8,000), they converted an old abandoned gas station in Burlington, Vermont, into the original Ben & Jerry's & stated making Vermont's Finest ice cream. They used only fresh Vermont cream & milk, & the best & biggest chunks of nuts, fruits,
candies & cookies. It wasn't long before the lines for ice cream stretched out the door, & that was only the beginning. You see, Ben & Jerry wanted to run a business that would share its rewards with its employees & with the
community.
