Lalala~!
Hey Victoria and people who read this blog regularly whom I don't know!
Hey Victoria, was I supposed to go to school on Saturday for the making popsicles for Girl Scouts thing again? Because I, like, didn't go... Yeah. I had to go for some stupid workshop. It's a Debate thing, and it was, oh I don't know, something along the lines of...hmm... TOTALLY BORING, maybe?
First day, it was just my luck. We were split up into groups and they named us countries and we had to be delegates of the countries. I was Myanmar. I was like, great, I have to talk about killing monks.
And to make things better (*cough* Sarcasm!*cough*) I was stuck in a group with a boy. Tch. Trust my luck. We were the only ones, I haven't a clue why the others didn't show up. Anyway, we had to have an "ice breaker" and we had to tell each other stuff. This is our first conversation.
Me: Uhh... Hi.
Him: Yeah. Hi. So what's your name?
Me: I'm Yeung Wan.
Him: Oh. I'm Lloyd.
Me: Um. Hi.
Him: Yeah... So... What grade are you?
Me: Secondary One, Two next year.
Him: Oh. OK, I'm Sec. 4.
Me: Um... OK.
Him: Yeah...
*Stare at each other for a few seconds, then both slump forward in chair and go "Siiiiiiighh..."*
Interesting, ain't it? Anyway he has this friend called Adwyn, but we all call him Crawshaw (I don't know why we do that...) and he's very funny and amusing. He knows me because he often goes to our tiny group of two to talk to Lloyd. He just smiles at me, a very small smile. He's never still, he's always moving about. When he's standing, his feet do this little dance. When he's sitting, he shakes his leg, leans forward to ask a nonsensical question and makes everyone laugh, and shakes his leg, then etc.
Then there's this CHIJ girl who's always talking into the mike, telling us what to do. Her real name is Yi Ping or something like that, but on the second day we made up a new name for her. Each country has to suggest a name, then we vote on it. So some countries were very practical, with stuff like "Isabella". But Peru, equally crazy as Myanmar, chose a name called "Appollononaire". Then it was our turn, and we looked at each other. We didn't know what to say, so Lloyd said "Anything." Then this girl in front of us from Peru said "What? Lingerie?!" and everyone laughed, so we were like, OK, Lingerie then.
Then our name got the most votes. So Yi Ping was therefore christened "Lingerie". But we pronounced it was Lingeree, not LawnJerry. Then we decided to have fancy spelling for it, and this guy wrote it on the board.
Lawngheray.
That was the new spelling!
Then... Yeah, I'll just list the funy events. On the last day, which was on Saturday, everyone was like, happy. Last day, that's why. So then this girl called Francesca, she gets into a play fight with Crawshaw. I don't know why, but it was all playing anyway. Then we all started chanting, "Crawshaw and Francesca, sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Then Crawshaw started saying how he wasn't interested in her or something like that, and the girl from Peru (The one who said "What? Lingerie?!") said "Hey Crawshaw, blablablabla...." I can't reember the rest. Then Crawshaw was like, OH, so why are YOU so INTERESTED in my SEX LIFE? Have you been RESEARCHING it? Is that why YOU're always STARING at me? Then everyone was like, "Oooooooooooooohh!" and we started joking around again. Then Francesca yelled out to Peru Girl, and said "I told you he was gay!". Then Crawshaw was like, "Oh, so YOU've been looking in on MY sex life too, aren't you?! I wonder WHY!" *Stare* Then this girl calls out, Francesca I suggest you shut up, and Francesca says, Fine!!!
Then Lawngheray started telling us to sit down. And her legs weren't crossed yet, so when everyone was sitting, she crossed her legs. Then Crawshaaw was like, Please, don't lift up your leg. I can see *tone of disgust enters voice* EVERYTHING. We all started laughing. Lawngheray, who'd turned a little red, said, "Then why are you looking?" and we all went "Oooohh!" again, because we thought Crawshaw wouldn't be able to think of anyhting to say, but he immediately replied "Oh please, don't encourage me!".
Yes, he's very funny(:
Oh yes, and on the first day, we also had to do a skit. Since there was virtually only me and Lloyd in Myanmar, we got a girl from Brazil called Melissa to help out with this. Our skit was about this guy visiting all the Myanmar prisoners in secret and asking them what they did.
CharactersLloyd: Interviewer
Melissa: News reporter
Me: Prisoner
Melissa: We are here with BLAH (I can't remember the name, so I'll just put BLAH), and he has miraculously managed to sneak in to the prisons. He is now interviewing a prisoner, who is waiting to be hanged for protesting for human rights. BLAH?
Lloyd: Yes, here I am, with a prisoner! Tell me, what did you do to get yourself in prison?
Me: *Forgot my lines, so improvised* I was protesting... against... Animal cruelty...?
Lloyd: *Speechless then recovers* Right, interesting since I thought you were protesting for human rights.
Me: Uhh, yeah, I forgot because the junta banged my head against the wall so many times for not eating my meal of stale bread and mouldy cheese.
Lloyd: Interesting. How else do they torture you?
Me: The dunk my head in icy water, the bang my head against the wall, and the tied me up plus chained me for dual protection!
Lloyd: Wow. So who do you think will save you?
Me: *Forgot my lines again* Umm... I was kind of... hoping you would? since you came here and stuff...
Lloyd: Umm... OK...
Me: Can you untie me?
Lloyd: Is that the junta I hear? Oh no, receptions bad, BYE!!!
Yes, that was it. Then there was this group with a guy called Jerry in it, and their subject was human rights I think.
Girl 1: Oh no, they're coming!
*Girls 2 and 3 approaching Jerry and Girl 1*
Girls 2 and 3: We're hungry!
Jerry: *Sissy voice, stroking toy giraffe* Go away!
*Then blablabla, forgot what happens, but somehow Girls 2 and 3 get into a fight and try to hit Jerry.*
Girl 1: No, STAY AWAY FROM THE QUEEN!
*Everyone starts laughing uproariously, after all, Jerry is a boy.*
Jerry: *Stops stroking giraffe* Oh no! *Pushes Girl 1 in the fight* Charmander, I choose you!
Yeah,
vair vair vair funny(: Gotta go now!
