squeeze some juices out of this expired brain

ahhh.... the inevitable question.
"how's it like being a new lower6 student in MD?" "how's MD like?"
of course, you can never expect same answers coz after all, everyone has different opinions.
so all ye shall listen to MY version! mwahaha!

i did not prepare any new stationery. i dont even have new shoes. hahahaha. all i have new are my uniform and tudong ;) and since we get a new bag in our $117 orientation pack *scoff!* i am going to USE IT! i paid 15freakindollars for an MD school bag, why shouldn't i use it? at least for a few months. im using my old pencil case and folders and had just bought a new pair of shoes just a few hours ago and.. OH CRAP IM GOING OFF TOPIC!! back to about md.....

when i first stepped out of my car, onto md compounds, a girl asked if i was new and walked with me. she blahblahblah-ed in malay for 5 mins and when she asked me a question and i replied her, she said "ohmygod, im sorry i didn't know you were chinese." hehe. she's cute.

first, there has to be the orientation. of course we have to listen to the teachers talk about the school, of course we do, we dont know one speck about MD! but if i hadn't had a full 12hour sleep the night before the first day of orientation, i was surely to have fallen asleep. and also if it weren't that hot in the auditorium. terrible, 891 lower6 students (highest record in MD) packed in it, plus prefects, MPs, staff and all. ohmygod. HOT!

2nd day of orientation, i really fell asleep throughout most of the speech. had to go to the loo to freshen up. did NOT bring my folder with me. back to seat, seatmate Lily told me "the prefect took your folder away!!" by now, we should all already know that abangsayang and kakaksayang all do that, then make you go up the stage to get ur folder by the end of the day. 

so break time at 10 came and i went to the foyer, feeling a bit irate. Michelle congratulated me. HEH. my usually-not-so-observant-eyes noticed a stack of stuff in the drawers of the tables outside. HAHAHA!!! guess what i found ;) i am one lucky ass.

and fortunately for gloriana too that she's a friend of mine (heh-heh!), when joanne told me hers was taken too, i snuck back there to grab hers. you love me dontcha glo? nyarhar. i got the phone number of one of the seniors in my folder. "call me when you're free". should i?

speeches thereafter i slept some more, overhearing the prefect behind me say "kasian jua ahh durang yang inda paham melayu. inda ketawa wahh.." referring to the apparently comedic teacher giving a motivational talk. ZzZzZzzz

3rd day - LESSONS!! =D
you canNOT possibly know how excited i was about starting lessons, i couldn't wait to start utilising my brains!! i even went and bought a purple butterfly brooch to match the skirt hahaha! the night before, i slept at 3am... nonetheless, i still woke up with high spirits!! =D

first lesson was physics!! im in the same class as hafiylah! woohoo, now i got someone to call in case i didnt catch the homework questions. my phys teacher is just a temporary one till april, coz the actual teacher's on a course somewhere till then. but mr.kho, he's cool. gave us homework.

next was chemistry. OHMIGOD my teacher gave us a TEST! @#$%^&*to be done in 15minutes!! whereas alison, same test, different teacher, gets to bring the test home even! ohmygod how unfair.

anyways, about the teacher, when i asked him if he was married he said his fiancee had passed away. oops. IS HE SERIOUS?? he told us to call him "sir" i told him i'll call him "a-yap" (after jasmine). he's cool. there was a guy sittin in front of me, chatting with me for the whole period and by the end of the lesson, he saw my name tag, and realised i was chinese. -_-"

after that, was biology with Ms. LimHuiHui who insists us calling her HuiHui. interesting. she reminds me of a younger version of t.veronica. I DONT KNOW WHY! she hates heat (just like me! i think we'll be getting along just fine..) , told us we're coincidentally a batch of distinction students (whoa...) and the first thing she told us was "and no, im not married." ? she's cool.

english language & literature!! had so much hassle looking for the class. went to the english block, FINALLY the list was published on the notice board. ICT1. rushrushrush, that's a whole 3 blocks away!!! elisa, shenny and jenny were laughing when they saw me huffing and puffing my way towards the library. reached the room, within the library. hey, im actually the 2nd to reach! and i was already 30 minutes late. HAHA!

ck.mashayu then asked me to go check if the students were misdirected to room008 and so i did, sending students her way.. i saw a group of boys looking lost outside the library and when they saw me, they approached me. i asked "can i help you?" and one of them responded in malay asking if i could tell him where's the ELL class. so i replied in malay laahh~ 10 mins later back in class, after we do our self-intro, i heard him, sitting behind me, telling his friend he thought i was malay. HAHAHA.

ck.mashayu told us that ELL's been getting 100% passes since it was first introduced, except one failed last year. she was away on a course for the whole of 2005. "now, could that be related?" she says. HAHAHA. she's cool. I AM GETTING ALL THE COOL TEACHERS!!! (or maybe it's just that it's the first day). looking forward to maths on monday.

after lunch was closing ceremony of the orientation. i slept for the first hour ZzZzzzz. i was shook awake by the choir singing the national anthem heheh.. next came Khairul's mini-skit hehehe he was funny. and then also, a malay skit presented by the arts club i think. honestly i did not understand it, except for barney's "i love you..you love me..we are happy family.." HAHA! after that a few more songs from the choir (the soloist was AWESOME!) then performance from the gulintangan club which was interesting too.

FINALLY, TIME TO GO HOME!! MWAHAHAH!!!

that's the end of the orientation week, from my side of the story. i had fun.
oh, and remind me to cut my nails and wear white socks.
