Memories Top-40 EDITED! (i added another 10)

okay considering my last (and first) post was so unemotional and uninfluential, i shall be nice and blog about the top 40 memories we took away from this trip!

1) the scenery at the dining hall (hohoho by the way some guy from my class told the whole class so now everyone's asking me for pics of the hot italian guy, OH MY GAHD)

2) my classic fall right smack on my bum which pretty much entertained everyone for the rest of the evening even though i couldn't exactly walk properly after that (not like i normally walk properly, haha which brings me to the next point)

3) everyone's attempts to walk/waddle like me (and you-know-who, haha) so much so i think we're all getting it, the whole world's gonna walk like pamela loo!

4) "i'm sure lah!", "sian diao!", "oh my tian, tian my oh!", "titan is the 2nd largest moon in our solar system", "MARIAAAAA!", "who's dna is this!?" etc etc

5) suat's classic act: locking herself out, which pretty much went like this:
BANG.
"AHHHHHH!!!"
pam's door opens and pam peers out, asking,
"suat, did what i think just happened just happen?"
suat laughs hysterically and begs liling to make her daily visit to the porter (her newfound best friend) with her, hahaha.
pam goes in and reports the incident to crystal, who laughs along.

6) ee chong's many attempts to serenade people (more like traumatise them)

7) mel's ability to turn anything into a song (including three empty glass bottles!)

8) the countless times i had to sit through listening to 'when you tell me that you love me' and 'phantom of the opera' (thanks to crystal and chinyue/liben/mel respectively)

9) mel-aria, mar-iben and OH MY GAHD i'd rather not mention anything else

10) our dares to each other (for eechong to take off his shirt - a sight to behold omg who am i kidding!)

11) rounds and more rounds of indian poker, bridge, POMELO!

12) 86p lunch packs, tiramisu, raspberries and ORGANIC milk

13) clara's many attempts to stop us from eating koala biscuits

14) our many attempts to squeeze the magic letters out of liben's mouth (though it shall not be disclosed on the world wide web)

15) *chinese pledge...* ping2 deng3 *hysterical laughter*

16) the shakespeare play director's many visits to our rooms ("excuse me, would you mind closing the window please? thanks.")

17) "QIAN HUAAA! ARE YOU AWAKE!?" *sharon bangs on door*

18) suat's occasional sputtering of nonsensical expressions or random outbursts of laughter

19) the heart-to-heart conversations with crystal in the room before sleeping (sounds wrong, haha)

20) our many attempts to dirty chinyue aka cleanfreak's room, upon discovering that he uses a torch to look for breakcrumbs on the floor and writes notes to the cleaning lady

21) trying to guess what LCBF calls miss chua (someone guessed 'xiao sai' I'M SURE LAH!)

22) LCBF's crude comments (e.g. to qian hua,"ni jing tian da bian le mei you?")

23) qian hua and all the tricks up her sleeve! (our classic prank on miss chua! video's with me by the way; plus mel mel's attempt to look innocent)

24) recalling disney songs in sharon's room (liben's sudden "and a 1, 2, 3, 4...*elephant trumpet*)

25) mel's performances on the piano!

26) our trips to the fellows' room to kope cookies, so much so mr sze even joined us!

27) clara's caught-red-handed act (openly taking photos of a certain someone!)

28) our not-so-dignified trips to and fro the cafeteria while the cashier was away/wasn't looking (some people even went to the extent of drinking juice at the juice counter before going into the dining hall to avoid paying!)

29) all the horrible dares we did (asking chinyue to kiss a soundly asleep liben, asking liben to take off his shirt and let mel smell it!?)

30) "let me show you de see-see-tee-vee of my stall.
first, you point to de mee pok.
den you say dlai.
den you point to the jeelee.
and you sake your head.
but you newer say dat you nowan ter kua.
so you eshprain to me, why you say dat you say dat you nowan ter kua when you newer say dat you nowan ter kua?"
(crystal soh's obsessed with this she made me repeat it like 2093467042 times! liben don't break this number down to analyse it haha)

31) derrick from MJ's hilarious jokes (he doesn't actually have to try to be funny! he just is, right guys? hahaha)

32) our afternoon games in the soccer field/basketball courts against the guys from MJ (i just realised it was always warm-up games, did we ever get to actually playing?)

33) sharon's super sophisticated conversations with her mum on the phone (full blown cantonese!)

34) the almost-fight in the cinema plus the attempts of the couple behind us to get into our photos after they were done with their private business haha

35) mr sze's many many maaaaany pleas for us to start blogging (and we did!)

36) our many attempts to kill/drown in coffee/enclose with glass/run away from bees in the dining hall, but then thankfully maria the maid somehow managed to get them hahaha (grins)

37) trying to laugh/gossip/play pomelo/bridge under hushed voices so the kind lady next door won't come screaming

38) cleaning the oven in the guys' kitchen (getting rid of stains on the sides left behind by our explosive 86p lunches, shall not comment about the upper surface)

39) kachiau-ing mel about his sitting in first class on the plane to and fro (the poor boy missed his caviar/foie gras; "aiyoh, business class ah? POOR THING!")

40) AND OF COURSE, THE LESSONS WE ACTUALLY HAD!

k it's getting late i was supposed to be in bed an hour ago. you can add on to this list, my brain isnt's exactly functioning now so my scrub jay episodic like memory isn't working either!
