The Fire

Look, you were at the scene of the fire too.
It wasn't as if you weren't there.

Dressed in expensive evening garb,
with faces delicately powdered,
eyes thickly framed with mascara.
you were there, before we came.

Right at the front line, you stood,
gawking, exclaiming, staring.
Not unlike the audience of a circus.

So why is it, when we came,
you became the righteous,
berating us with words so vile.

how we were merely busybodies
noseyparkers, such a disgrace.

sorry young ladies,
i am sure you must have gotten a great shock
to see fire jumping out of a florist's
while you took your dainty evening walk

i've got a question though,
and i'm sure it will stand.
for, do you often go for evening walks,
laden with bracelets and dressed to kill?

admit it,
you too were there out of curiosity.
don't pretend it was out of care for humanity

I rang 995 when i saw the fire.
did you offer any assistance at all,
other than your very valued comments?

'typical singaporeans,' you said
with voice dripping with disdain
but look around, my dears,
for no one is more singaporean than yourself.

The Anderson Family (as presented to me five days a week) [REVISED]


biology (lecture):
still speaks intelligibly. frustrated students have resorted to entering sleep mode the moment they ease themselves onto the (very uncomfortable) grey plastic chairs. has a bad habit that consists of clicking frantically on powerpoint slides. moves mouse pointer erratically so that everyone gets motion sickness just watching her point out which parts of the saccharides are hydrophillic.

biology (tutorial):
one word - Smithers. Perfect likeness.

chemistry (#3):
a little low in the mental acquity department, she insists on asking perfectly redundant questions. has a history of bad movie making, on the topic of Titrations. displays porcine malovence by horrific screeches that send everyone diving for ear muffs. someone let her come down with laryngitis... PLEASE!

teacher-in-charge:
finally. he returns from outer space with chronic sleeping-illness. the only teacher who can drift off into a slumber while conducting a lesson. very impressive ability, i must say. likens himself to mandarin pop-singer a-do, (go ahead, laugh at the name. i too find it hilarious) which, is a very repulsive idea considering the fact that he is about 50 years old with dark eye rings.

Some Swedish for the day...

fan också -> devil, too! (swedish swear-word)

färdig -> finished

att vara eller inte vara -> to be or not to be

självklart -> obviously

gengångare -> someone who haunts you

skitbra (!!) -> shit-good =)

skratt and gråt -> laugh and cry

ok, that's enough Swedish for the day.
