EPIC FAIL!
I had put up a poll about day dreaming which you can see on the right part of the screen and hadn't gotten any responses so I felt bad for myself and voted! So if you see one vote so far, that would be my vote haha
I have slightly uneven teeth. Every time I slide my tongue across my teeth I imagine God running his fingers across mountain peaks.
What's on Shawabeans' Playlist this week:

"The Buffalo used to say, 'be who you are'"... "All roads lead to Rome with the Buffalo"

Or as Taro the Japanese guy on Mind Your Language would say, the Buffal

According to my mother, I am very precise. If I hadn't disagreed with her statement I probably would have agreed, backing this argument with supporting examples:

  • I wake my brother Luke up for school every weekday between 7.01am to 7.05am

  • My alarm goes off at 6.22am every weekday, after which I hit the snooze button at 6.31am and 6.40am. I then wait another few minutes before switching the water heater on, usually between 6.42am to 6.45am

  • My alarm actually goes off at 6.17am, 6.26am, and 6.35am if you follow Astro time. I set my clock 5 minutes fast but read the time as if it's 3 minutes fast if I'm running late to college and want to feel relieved that I actually arrived at Eg: 7.59am rather than 8.01am

  • When I eat Shredded Wheat cereal, I must have only 7 squares in my bowl

  • I drink water at 7-gulp intervals. Occasionally 5 if I take big gulps
I still think 'precise' is not a word to describe me though. So many reasons why but I'll keep that to myself :D

I have a dear friend who is terrified of b a l l o o n s. I didn't realize how major her phobia was until last week, when I attended the TALENT-LAH event organized by my friend and her PR group as part of our assignment ( I had to organize an event on the day celebrated by victims of Cupid's [not known to dress modestly] shooting sprees, whose arrows inject and in some cases blind innocent souls with a little dose of what some may call love)

After the event (which was successful), a number of us were playing around with the pink balloons. Every time a balloon Popped! my friend would scream. One of my friend's group mates discovered this, sneaked up behind her, burst a balloon in her ear, then ran off like how a little boy would after mixing red dye into his sister's shampoo bottle, not wanting to get caught.

She started to cry. I, typically not knowing how to handle the situation, gave my friend a sort-of hug then left to scold the guy. Problem was that I mistook the guy who committed the crime with another guy from the PR group. My tongue unleashed its fury, shouting and lecturing the poor fellow, not knowing that he was the wrong guy. He waited till I finished, then calmly said "I didn't do it".

HAHAHAHAHA
I don't remember apologizing to him :(

Maurice (to Alex) : My, what big teeth you have!
King Julian (flicks Maurice on the forehead) : Maurice! Can't you see you're insulting dee freaks?

King Julian (in the midst of a meeting) : Maurice, you did not raise your hand. Therefore your heinous comment shall be stricken off our records

King Julian (in a plane crash landing) : Maurice! Lift your hands up like this! It's more fun that way if you raise your hands like this.

Can you imagine a world without music? I think the earth would be miserable. What songs I listen to depends on my mood at that point in time, and vice versa. Songs can change alter my mood almost instantly. So what do I do when I wanna feel happy?
I listen to happy songs!

Below are, in my opinion, the top 3 happiest songs I know (that make me happy):

1. Love Today - Mika
"Everybody's gonna love today, love today, love today! Everybody's gonna love todayy, anywhere you want to, anywhere you got to, love love me, love love me".
Mika sings it like he's high on something. But whenever I hear it I feel like jumping up and down and singing at the top of lungs and doing a sort of a Chandler dance which drives Luke up the wall haha.

2. The Happy Song - Delirious
"Yeah, I could sing any song, of how You saved my soul. Yeah, I could dance a thousand miles because of Your great love!"
I think it takes quite an amount of happiness to be able to dance a thousand miles. But I feel like I can, when I listen to this song!

3. I'm Walking On Sunshine - Don't know haha
The music is incredibly lively! And the GLEE cast has made me love this song even more haha. Only people in a state of blissfulness can believe they're walking on sunshine :D
Oh yeah I found out only 2 weeks ago that it's 'I'm Walking On Sunshine'. I had always thought that it was 'I'm Walking On THE Sunshine' until Josh corrected me hahahahaha.

Now that I've told you my top 3 happy songs, send me a list of yours! I'd like to know and possibly add a couple to my HAPPY PLAYLIST!
