A continued post

Okay, so maybe I didn't post so much and so long yesterday, but I can definitely write 1500+ words. Afterall, my post yesterday was 1533 words long. So 3000 - 1533 words = 1467 words. Easily manageable.

You know, I realised that I wrote 287 words on philosophy yesterday. Amazing. I could go out, and get a job as a philosophical teacher. Okay, I'm not being serious. But who says that you've gotta be serious during a post, anyway..?

Okay, I'm gonna number these 1 - 3 again, partly because I have no friggin idea what to name them besides numbers, and partly because it is my.. reaction.. towards your post. Maybe respnse would be a better word, do you not think so..?

1.Gene Pools

Gene Pools. Okay, so basically, its a very weird subject and I've never heard of anyone posting about Gene Pools before, although I've heard of people posting about teachers, about politics, about subjects, about school and stuff. Never "Gene Pools". So.. we are the first two to do so! Congratulations, Rachel!

And who in their right mind thinks that Gene Pools are full of.. sperms..? I mean, if you're talking CHROMOSOMES, at least include some female cells too, like the egg. Like, if you say that when you think of Gene Pools, they are made up of tadpoles and frog eggs, in which the tadpole's the sperm and the frog egg's are the female egg. And because the mammalian sex cells contain chromosomes, which contain genes, hence you can deem the pools as gene pools because.. well, they contain genes. Hence.

I kinda think that the "assume the gene's received" thing was kinda cool. I can make out the typical genes Michellina got.

Stupid + Ugly + Un-sarcastic + A little outgoing + Very egoistic + Bloody short = Michellina Chan

I, too, can make out the typical genes that a person like.. Mr. Siow got.

Somewhat intelligent + Somewhat nerdy + Somewhat outgoing + Not exactly very egoistic + Average height = Mr. Siow.

Aren't I fantastic.

Well, yeah. Our genes are quite similar, hence we are fantastic sisters. Three cheers for the.. Duo!

2. 2007

2007. Tuttut. I have no idea if 2007 poses a threat or a blessing for me. I would love to sit down and have fun and frolick all day, but no, I, sadly, am unable to, when it comes to stuff like homework. And yes, when it comes to distant relatives for me, I am too, speechless. Basically I'm not speechless with fright, but because I have no idea who they are, and no idea what to talk to them about. It is rather unique, don't you think so..? Its not like I'm anti-social or what. People who don't see me talk that often only know me as a shy and quiet girl who sticks in a corner reading. It's a real wonder why they never question themselves, that why wouldn't a normal, typical ELDDS member not utter a single syllable..? Either she's mute, hence she can only act in mimes, or that she's pissed, which is not likely because she can't be pissed everytime you see her; unless the sight of you pisses her off so much that she's intending to shut her mouth up, or she's got a horrible sore throat which just has to happen everytime you see her or maybe, because she and you have no utter common topic! For people who are still wondering what the answer to that very difficult question is, let me reveal the answer. The answer is that she and you have no utter common topic! Hands up who got that question correct -- nobody. So everyone is disillusionising themselves by thinking that:

a) I am mute.

b) I am pissed.

c) I have a bad sore throat.

d) All of the above.

I mean, for crying out loud.. And you call a baby naive..? So yeah, I guess I am in the same problem as you, and I am being accused of being cold. Tell me a funnier joke.

And I wouldn't turn into a China geek. Not for the world. Not for the universe. But somehow, if somebody actually asks me to turn into a China geek for the world, would you actually do it..? Somehow, I'll reconsider. Greed.. Hmm.. It really makes you think twice, doesn't it..? I am sure you will score in your humanities. I am sure that both you and Celestine are humanities person. Me..? I dunno. I guess I've never been serious / crazy / good enough to be an any-subject person. I used to think that I was a language person, but now, not really. I'm starting to think that I'm a Math and Science person. Sad, cos I really like my languages. And yes, although I love Literature and History very much, I am unable to commit myself to Pure Literature and elective History. I hate Geography. It is absolutely pointless. I don't think you should worry about taking stands in history although it happened way before you were born. Man was meant to disobey its ancestors. Man was made to be emotional, just depends on whether you see it or not. I take stands too. Like I was pretty pissed at Adolf Hilter for going to war. I always assumed that he went to war because he hated the Jews for killing his mother or something like that. However, I was informed 21 days ago that he disliked the Jews for another cause. No doubt, even after so many years, people still wonder why he went to war in the first place, and they still come up with other versions of it. Even now, I'm not very sure that my source is reliable or not. Is Horrible Histories reliable..?

2007 wouldn't only spell more work. We forgot something, Rachel -- juniors. My neighbour scored 248 for her PSLE score, and she's considering Crescent. So, new juniors. And because we're gonna be Sec 3 next year, we're gonna be the ones running the CCA. So, you in Guides, concentrate on giving your juniors the toughest training and / or Guides tests ever. Me, in ELDDS, will be stretching for most of the sessions, hence I will get to push my juniors down (literally) and bully them by making them do it all over again. Bloody juniors.

3. Family

My family is branched out like.. A Family Tree. Literally. But I, too, have distant and close cousins. I have.. 8 Singaporean cousins whom I know not their names. Wait, 4 + 3 + 3 = 10. Okay, so I have 10 Singaporean cousins whom I don't know their names. I don't even know their sirnames. And they are considered my.. close.. relatives because of their parent's blood-bond with my father. I recently managed to contact a friend of mine in Primary 6 and I found out that she was in Beatty Secondary school. I happily wanted to ask her if she knew my cousin who was also in Beatty Secondary, but I froze. Why? Because I didn't know her sirname / name / appearance. Its that serious. And I don't even know her anything except her age. Okay, so I managed to find something out and that is -- she is my friend's senior. Fantastic piece of news. Now what do we do with it..? Nothing. There are so many Sec 3 s in Beatty Secondary, I probably wouldn't find her.

I'm not very well accquianted with the "oversea's family" kinda thing. When a family transports overseas along with other relatives, do they get closer or do they drift apart more..? I've never attempted that before. Maybe I should one day. And I, too, regret being Chinese. We are a boring race, even though China is fascinating. But we are not China-Chinese. We are Singaporean-Chinese. And hence, I feel, we have no history at all, because our history lies in the depths of China, not of Singapore. Doesn't this make you wonder why you call yourself Singaporean when you're actually an immigrant by descent..?

Another thing -- I am sick of people asking me:" My, you're Chinese! Could you show me some kung-fu?"

For goodness sake, Chinese people don't grow up learning how to punch or kick. We might punch and kick while in our mother's womb or something, but no 2 year-old kid in Singapore does Shaolin Kung-fu. Maybe someone out there actually does that, but I haven't heard of someone doing that. Not everybody's Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan, you know.

And I'm bloody pissed at my nephew. Yes, the Impotent nephew. Hold it, the.. Impotent Nephew?!? Well, we were talking about going to visit Taiwan yesterday and he said something that sounded like this: "You groin to visit mae?"

Now that is so wrong. I thought he was being cheeky. And I realised he said: "You're going to visit me?" I nearly killed him.

I think I'm done. 1496 words.

So long, farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Goodbye!

Love,

ME

Postscript: I didn't include the Holiday schedule cos I can't find my calendar. Besides, Impotent Groin Man's here.
