chicken banana backside

Some of you will love me for this, some will hate me for defiling their brain cells by making you people read this. Heh, enjoy!


While reading a book in the library, you heard the librarian scream. The librarian, a young man, was standing on a chair behind the counter. He looked very scared.

Write a story based on the above situation. give your story a good ending. Your story should be at least 120 words in length.

... (detailed help for the clueless primary school kid that I'm too lazy to type out)

- LEARNERS English Test Papers Primary 4

Picture Composition Draft 1 - Lim Yu Cheng

The sun was shinning brightly in the peace blue sky like a big yellow cheedar. A young man was going to the Jurong Point library.

As the young man reached the non-fiction secion he saw tons of non-fictions books. He took the book to read and borrowed some books. He went to the librarian to borrow the book. "EKK!" The librarian screamed as a rat scurried across the floor.

The rest of the people panicked but the young man did not as he was brave and strong. He took the rat exterminetor spray. With one spray on the rat, it was dead. The librarian thanked him for doing a good deed.

As he borrowed the book, he went home happily.



Now he's eating milo balls by sticking his head into the bowl. You know how horses are fed, you know how dogs enjoy dog-biscuits, you know how my brother indulges in milo balls.

Yup, it's a perfectly normal day in my house.

Did i mention I'm not paid enough?

we all have em' moments

Tree: I'm feelin' the love alright.


Tree: Back off, hungry.



Tree: ARGH!!! Get offa me human! You vegetarians have gone too far!



Yup, this is one of my moments. No offence to vegetarians though, some of you are hawt like Maggie Q, okay? Lastly, I assure you I'm fully omnivorous.

I'm not much of a treehugger though. The first picture proudly displays my unglamorous teeth and the fact that I forgot to adjust my top. Oh well. FOR POSTERITY!

To my JC friends (wow first time saying it and it feels strange), stay in school, enjoy your orientation and eat your veggies.

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you ever tried. - (Murphy Laws Site)

Hey people out there. Being the tutor of a primary school kid isn't easy. Teaching Math isn't my thing .. so I stuck to English. Pretty much everything is going well with everything but compo. I've got absolutely no idea how teachers do it. Maybe its just that I've seen too many sec sch compos. Anyways... here's my brother's essay (p4), quarter-complete.

I'll whip him into shape tomorrow. He's actually serious about sending this in to the teacher. Sigh, how I miss the days where pri sch kids were forced to write it down.

The beauty of the backspace button...



The Misery of Drug Abuse - by Lim Yu Cheng

One fine and superb day ,I was walking home from school . as I was at the bus stop,I saw a guy he was holding drugs in his hands and he was about to eat it but luckily I stopped him from eating it .

I told him not to eat because it is not enviorment friendly he said to me shut your big yap up. I called the police and ninonino the police arrived in a rail of sirens and underwears.



(to be continued)

... I'm amazed and I know not what to say. Something tells me I'm not paid enough.

Kids DO write the darndest things.

CNY 2009 - OXOXOXOXOXO

Hugs and kisses baby. Mostly pictorial and chronological post coming right up. (Lazy readers say "Hooray!") Hongwei's Dumpling blog inspired.



Ay lovey, how did you spend your new year?



Chu Xi - (New Year's Eve)

Had church before heading over to Ah gong's house and yes, I came into contact with some wonderful new friends. Gotta love what the girls are wearing. As for Samuel, he looked like he popped out from a Qing Dynasty film. That's okay, we still love you.

Thanks Samuel for taking the picture :) Your skills are impeccable or we just make the picture look good. Can't see my green top from the picture though. Gosh, is it me or do girls (or "matured" ladies) in church just look more beautiful?


After that, I headed over to Bishan. Geraldine *aherm* left me there to rot by myself. No wonder you're my favourite cousin.


Chu Yi - (Day One of New Year)

(pic coming soon)

Headed over to Lavender where we met the mama's side of the family. Undeniably, this is the side that I feel closer to. So many supportive cousins and relatives. They're ever so sweet and encouraging. Too bad Jasmin's family wasn't there. Wisdom from the elders:


1) Praise the Lord!

2) Engineers built Singapore. - I did learn a lot about engineers and all. Too bad they're a dying breed here. It would suck if we had to import more PRCs when we actually encompass the Singapore brand. Sigh, it's like trying to replace all the hawker centres in Sg with Macs. It just loses the local touch. Made in China? That's everywhere. Made in Singapore? Now that's something you don't see everyday.

3) Poly life is good. You don't need a supposedly fantastic start to be successful in life. Going off the beaten track is stimulating and it doesn't make you lose out if you try your best.

4) I have to fix my finger by attaching a "splinter" to it.

5) Little boys are destructive. My father still loves little kiddies though. Guess he's missing the time when he could baby my brother or me. He still babys my brother though. Everybody go "Awww".


Intellectually stimulating, yes. Boring, slightly.


Chu Er - (Day Two of New Year)


Ladies and gents, I present to you, my cousin. Gosh sometimes I can hardly believe we're related.

Freak of Nature!


Oh no! She's getting consumed by the mass of hair! Haha yeah, she was just telling me how she feels camera-shy. Picture speaks for itself. She's doing a Romeo to a pair of my Ah Gong's pants.

We have nice cheem English names, but everyone chooses to call us by our sillier pet names. *facepalm* Ping ping! Ah Ping! Bao bao!

Thank God I get called by my Chinese name more often.

Heehee, remembering one of my creepy nightmares... I was washing my face and looking into the mirror. I saw Geraldine in the mirror, screamed and promptly woke up. So now you're the stuff of nightmares.

So much for A1 in O level English. If you're reading this G, get to your compre after you're done with my post. *pauses to stop self from saying anything that will make her ego explode with glee or demoralise her*

Gave my rotting brain a slight workout by picking out the points for her summary and teaching her the basics. (Girl you were supposed to write it down properly, but noooo...)


Don't get mad girl, it's you as you are and I love it. You're everyone's favourite bad girl okay?



Of course, no CNY would be complete without some tots in traditional Chinese costumes.

Left to Right: Sarah/Dionne, Jolin, Dionne/Sarah engaging in CNY bonding


Can't tell them apart, but aren't they cute? Cute as a button baby! Well at least the twins are. Jolin's the most kaypoh, nightmarish little girl ever.
Somebody restrain her. Or give a kick to the pigtails is pretty good too.

Oh and Dionne's named after Celine Dion.


Photobucket


Ain't I a peach?


Pardon the blurriness, but she totally captured the joy of children in that shot. She's practically bubbly with amusement from a very simple game. Darn, nothing makes us grown-ups happy like that.


Photobucket


Nappy time! Spread the love and the drool!


Mmm pics are blurry cuz I was really tired then.


Ladies and gents, I present to you, my brother Lim Yu Cheng in an unglam shot!


Photobucket


Who said I wanted a nit-picking session you chimp!


Haha, he had his finger between his toes before that. Yes, that's Jolin for you, constantly popping out of nowhere. Hmm my bro looks annoyed.


Of course, hanging out with Geraldine is fun since she does have a great fashion sense, perfect for the tropical Singapore climate but very copy-able. Nothing like browsing chick mags with her or talking about clothes and retarded incidents.

Resemblances?


Facial, yes. Attitude, behaviour-wise... that leaves a lot to be desired. Ah well, it takes all kinds to make the world and the family.



That's all folks. I'm dead tired and Chu San, Si, Wu, Liu will be updated soon enough. Yes, hongbaos and memories coming in everyday.
