'O' Levels English Oral Examination...

The day started on a low note. I was groggy from sleeping at 1 A.M. the previous night, and I fell asleep on the toilet bowl. Really. I was that sleepy. I woke up about ten or fifteen minutes later with really numb legs, and took my shower.

By the time I got out, had breakfast, packed all the stuff I need to bring and got ready for school, the time looked threatening. We rushed as fast as we could, and when the bus came, it was jam-packed with Christ Church b******s. We could only wait for the next bus, which caused us to be late by 5 minutes. Well we got through anyway. The day's lessons went on as usual... And then the thing came after school.

Singapore-Cambridge Ordinary Level English Oral Examination 2004. Aah, the dreaded 'O' Levels. Sometimes it can get to you.

The day's topic: Humour.

Clowns, jokes, sense of humour, funny things, keep your job not boring... The works. I guess I did pretty okay, except for picture interptretation, which I sucked.

Singapore Idol today was slightly funny. Only the banana man, and no other highlights. However, though, this episode is really about the human spirit in the midst of the trash and junk. We've got the brave deaf woman, the man with a speech disorder who sang much, much better than a lot of the other people who speak normally. I agree with Ken Lim on this one: You sound even better than some of the normal ones. We know. And of course the guy who just lost his father. He was really emotional, and if he could keep this up he can go very far.

The only thing I need to do now... Is to find my keys.
