Today it dawned on me that the reason behind all the recent pent-up emotions and wild-running thoughts might just be due to the fact that I've been cooped up in my crib. So today's venture outdoors was good for the soul, even if the reason was to take an exam.
And there were lots of laughter to boot! Her mockingly-woeful whine, "xxx doesn't love me anymore, he didn't message me good-luck for the exam!" was said with such doleful eyes coupled with a melodramatic sigh, it was an unmistakable cue for a good, hearty laugh.
This is the same girl who looked me in the eye with all honesty over dinner, saying, "Haiyah, you should really get together with yyy. Cos I think he has really nice eyes and you have nice eyes too."
??!!?!?!!?
HAHAHA!!!
Ooooh I love you babe. :D
Ooh how can I forget those exam questions? Indubitably some of the funniest I've come across to date. Seriously, they should set a law banning all exam questions with the slightest sense of humour, because I just get flung off the serious mode, gagging from trying my best not to burst out in uncouth, raucous laughter.
Here're some examples from today's paper:
14. Spiders extrude their silk from
a) Nipples
33. Which of the following simplified procedures is currently used for cloning animals?
c) Take a starved donor cell and implant it into an egg whose nucleus has been removed. Cook the egg using a microwave and implant into the surrogate mother.
This one totally got me man!! I had to succumb to rocking in my chair and jiggling the slipper on my right foot just so I could channel the suppressed energy elsewhere. In my mind I was bursting out in (very) audible laughter, whilst one hand was slapping my thigh and the other was banging the table. Imagine the precious time wasted just to compose myself and will my mind back to deep concentration!
Out with all funny exam questions already!

Today my God gave me the tiny assurances that I oh-so-needed. Like a journey made one step at a time, I say, do this one day at a time.
