Kim, STUDY!
Thursday, May 04, 2006
Daniel on sms: "KIMBERLY DON'T THINK YOU CAN SLACK WHEN I'M NOT AROUND. GET BACK TO WORK."
So screams the coach of operation make-Kim-study after he had left for a sushi buffet.
The night before I had called her at 9 to spot check on her, only to find our dear Kim who had two papers today watching cartoons. And so motivated our make-Kim-study operation. We were there from slightly after her morning paper to before her evening paper to force, coerce, coax her into studying. Of course, coaxing didn't help so Daniel had to order her to study, complete with threats (I did suggest her paying for our next Crystal Jade bill if she didn't).
Unfortunately Daniel left too early, about 2-ish for his sushi buffet, leaving Kim reading only for a while, because about 3 plus Kim promptly gave up and declared that she could not study anymore, with the logic that you can't possibly squeeze anything into your head 2 hours before the exam.
And so we sat there munching Daniel's strawberry yoghurt sandwich cookies, which is of course pink in colour (the box that is), until Kim's fellow exam-taker, Benita came along and then they started discussing the abstract concepts of the module.
At 4pm, Daniel's sms came.
Muahahaha...Kim's reply: "I'M CONDEMNED!!! IF I MAKE IT, YOU'LL SEE ME ON FRIDAY."
Next Friday was supposed to be our CSS 2 launch day, but now we have to postpone it because we're even busier after the exams, which is ironic.
Of course, we made to the exam hall. Or rather, Kim made it to the exam hall and I followed her there and saw other friends who were taking the same exam, and who of course, promptly accused me of gloating over their misery by simply being there. Hmpf. What an ungrateful lot, when I offered chocolates to them to cheer them on.
Hahaha...It's not as if I went into the library sniggering at people who are
still mugging right... hmmm.. actually I did go to the library. But that's only because Daniel wanted to snigger at people who haven't yet finished their exams.

To make right the wrong... regarding Xiaohui's cynical remarks on the '10 ways you know a guy is crushing on you' type of article, we did ask her a whole string of questions because by some *ahem* mysterious ways, we could remember some of the 'typical' ways. So here goes:
"What if the guy keeps staring at you?"
XH: "He's looking at my pretty friend, whose next to me."
"What if the guy said 'I love you'?"
XH: "He's only taking me as a substitute for his mother, who can cook, clean and tidy up for him."
Hmm there were many others, which I can't remember at that time, basically because er... I wasn't really listening. Actually I was fighting to keep awake after lunch so Xiaohui had to ask me if I was still there every 5 minutes. Well I heard little bits and pieces, enough to respond sometimes but most of the time stoning or far away in dreamland.
