Okay, time for tag replies.

I know I was lazy, and though I promised everyone millions of times that I'll do tag replies, but I never did them, as can be seen?

So I shall. Because, I dunno, maybe its time for me to start keeping my promise. And mind you, I've promised millions of people stuff. I've promised my Godfather never to kill myself. I've promised Clarence that I'll win the 5 buck bet (but he didn't accept, which is sad). I've promised my pillow that I'll see my pillow everyday next year. I've promised myself that I will keep my promises.

Okay, so its time to keep my promises. I promise?

WHATEVER.

Yeah, Janice Dickinson is irritating. But she's a top model! But she's still irritating. I guess things are always like that. If you're successful, you're sometimes irritating? I dunno. I'm irritating but not successful. So the theory doesn't work.

You finally decided to return mine and Juanita's vibes when we were singing the Badger song while waiting on the MaChoker, right? You suck. Okay, I just decided to name the burger which chokes everyone becauses its too dry the MaChoker. I'm quite curious as to since when we left insanity. If we didn't leave, how could we go back? :D Yeah, you just didn't seem like you give orders then. They're so stalkerish, I feel so threatened. Gosh, if you told them you live so near school, they might wait for you at the gate! Then Jia Yi will go: "Hyeonie Hyeonie!! Why are you carrying an A-Math textbook? What is A-Math? Is it difficult? Are you feeling okay today? Your wrist is cured ah? Michelle is retarded right?" And then everyone would agree. Bloody hell. You look like the Techno person - face it. Its purple. You're colour-blind. Alot of people asked me if you were okay, you know. And I told them the slash-wrist story, and they were like, "Yeah, she seems like that sort of person." Punkia looks the same. I think he's still emo. And you're the les one, not me! I didn't kiss a girl. The good thing about the seating thing is that we're quite near. Which is so surprising. I thought they would put me in-front of the teacher's table with Qian Qian, because she's top, and I talk.

Ashley Tisdale has too high a voice for me to like her. And Ashlee Simpson looks far too retarded to be liked. Zheng Xian's emoing far too much, it does kinda freak me out. But his love life is damn sad, I must say. Its so weirdly screwed up. I mean, its screwed up in a weird way. Like, its screwed up not the proper way, but a weird way. Okay, lets just say that its screwed.

Vanessa:

NO, Manchester United will not win, because Arsenal will! But for now, they're level. Stupid Birmingham. The class gathering was so sad! It was like, the last time we saw Timothy. And Zheng Xian's like, this monstrous creature. :(

Clarence:

Uh, since Primary 5, when I met a Liverpool fan and highly disagreed with him, and kept arguing with him all the time. Yeah, since then. And I had to know about soccer statistics. I'm not arguing with him anymore, though. Heartbreak Kid is funny okay. Its starring Ben Stiller. How can anyone not watch it?! And how can it be rated R21? I'm so disappointed. And I don't owe you 5 bucks, okay. You know it yourself! I am so pure, and I totally rock. I'm not gonna practise pinning the badge on a soft toy, seriously. Never. My soft toy's gonna have holes! And I'm not gonna practise anyway. Its just one ceremony! And no, she wasn't sad. She was abit too damned happy, because my inability in pinning her badge gives her some sort of evidence that I'm retarded. The damn thing was so shocking! I shall give it to you for your birthday present. Yeah, I owe you one. I shall buy that for you! And you'll know exactly what I mean. And then again, since you don't have delicate hands, you might not be able to feel anything. Oops. My bad. :D HAHAH, am I being bad to you?

Azalea:

Hello dearie! Yeah, Sec 3. WOAH! HAHAH. ELDDS is gonna be given to you people on a gold plate! The one we have in the Prop Room. HAHAH, anyway, thanks for your help during CCA Orientation! We sure created lots of chaos and fear amongst Crescentians. Although I'm not so sure if its a good thing or not. Priscilla has gone around terrorising you too?! OMG, we must sit down and have a heart-to-heart talk with her. Like, maybe tell her doing ballet in public is quite indecent.

Sam:

Yeah, Sec 2! I'm never gonna get used to calling you Sec 2, though. You seem so Primary 2 to me! And I'm not sick, I don't have a fever. And whatthehell, what kind of ELDDS member are you? ELDDS people aren't sick. They are healthy people. Just that they're way of thinking is abit screwed up at times. But still! Stupid Sammy Wammy. No wonder you're P2.

Rachael:

I totally am allowed! And if you break the rules, you get mass punishment from every single ELDDS Committee member. Speaking of which, I should start having a talk with Stephanie. And Eugenia would totally support my stand, since she loves me so. And I'm still planning how to murder you for smearing chocolate on my shirt and spraying me with flour. Practically scaring the hell out of me. I was screaming and totally ruining my reputation. :( I feel so violated.

Uh, I guess our definition of porn is different. I'm using the word "porn" as a personification. Not an adjective? HAHAH. The grass isn't greener on the other side, I must say. You should try planting flowers on the other side. That might help, maybe?

Juanita:

Yeah! The fate of the Michelles under Mr Choy. I empathise with any Michelle who come under Mr Choy next year, or the years to come. But I do kinda pity Mr Choy sometimes. First the Michelle Teo, now the Michelle Lee. But the good thing is, Michelle Lee and Michelle Teo are nice people. So he's kinda lucky.

Iman:

You're so damn easy to cheat, I can't believe it. And I think Mr Keong knows that your love for him is overwhelming. Although you're like, pedophilic, and all. But those babies on your blog look damn cute, though! Although I'm so much more cuter. :D

Hello dearie!! Miss you loads! Tuition must be damn boring, because Clarence doesn't talk, and Michellina's mute. But at least you have Clara! And Sherica! And congratulations on your growth spurt, dear!

Manasa:

OMG, ELDDS misses you badly. When are you coming back?! Guess what? Eugenia's our new President! Mr M made her our President. Our Drama VP is.. No idea, I forgot. Sumukhi, I think. Or Varuni. I forgot. You should have come back during CCA Orientation! It was so fun.

Jerene:

NO, you're the psycho one. What's his name, Randy? Nicholas? Royvin? Peter? George? Stanley? Tom? Dick? Harry? Girl, you have billions of boyfriends. GOSH, I'm so damn disappointed in you! Can't you just stick to one guy instead of nine-timing them? Really, Jerene. I didn't know you were so wild. :D And the NUM jacket's PINK! EWW. :(

Dhashni:

Azima didn't help me, I helped her! I passed her the starch and diastaste, and she did the pouring. HAHAH!! That was damn fun. We should do it again! But Mrs Yip might murder us or something. Or Ms Angeline Ng. :D

Michelle Quek:

EWW, you sick minded person! HAHAH! Insulting a fellow Michelle is fun. Insulting Michelle Quek gets me lots of flowers from the general public. Don't be upset about Assumption English, okay! Its alright!

Thank god its over. Let me count. I had to reply 17 people. But that's okay. Its over!

Yesterday during training, we were talking about BOYFRIENDS.

Yanlin said that one day, we should go organise a field trip to go out and swoon at guys. HAHAH! I think that's such a funny thought.

Michelle Quek is officially going after old guys. Like, the salespeople at Robinsons. I dunno. Michelle Quek, why don't you go after those Deal or No Deal hunks? At least those people hold suitcases and smile and charm everyone on and off screen. Or, at least, they try to charm.

I just read an email sent to me by Valerie. I know its supposed to be serious, but I find it quite amusing. Here:

Through a Rapist's Eyes (No Joke)

This is important information for females of ALL ages .
Please pass it along .

A group of rapists and date rapists in prison were interviewed on what they look for in a potential victim and here are some interesting facts:

1) The first thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle. They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun, braid or other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed . They are also likely to go after a woman with long hair . Women with short hair are not common targets.


2) The second thing men look for is clothing. They will look for women who's clothing is easy to remove quickly. Many of them carry scissors around specifically to cut clothing!


3) They also look for women on their cell phone , searching through their purse, or doing other activities while walking because they are off-guard and can be easily overpowered.


4) Men are most likely to attack & rape in the early morning, between 5:00a.m . and 8:30a.m.


5) The number one place women are abducted from/attacked is grocery store parking lots . Number two: is office parking lots/garages. Number three: is public restrooms.


6) The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman and quickly move her to another location where they don't have to worry about getting caught.


7) Only 2% said they carried weapons because rape carries a 3-5 year sentence but rape with a weapon is 15-20 years.


8) If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that going after you isn't worth it because it will be time-consuming.


9! ) These men said they would not pick on women who have umbrellas , or other similar objects that can be used from a distance, in their hands. Keys are not a deterrent because you have to get really close to the attacker to use them as a weapon. So, the idea is to convince these guys you're not worth it.


10) Several defense mechanisms he taught us are: If someone is following behind you on a street or in a garage or with you in an elevator or stairwell, look them in the face and ask them a question , like what time is it, or make general small talk: 'I can't believe it is so cold out here,' 'we're in for a bad winter.' Now you've seen their face and could identify them in a line-up; you lose appeal as a target.


11) If someone is coming toward you , hold out your hands in front of you and yell STOP or STAY BACK ! Most of the rapists this man talked to said they'd leave a woman alone if she yelled or showed that she would not be afraid to fight back .. Again, they are looking for an EASY target.


12) If you carry pepper spray (this instructor was a huge advocate of it and carries it with him wherever he goes) , yell! I HAVE PEPPER SPRAY and holding it out will be a deterrent.


13) If someone grabs you , you can't beat them with strength but you can by outsmarting them If you are grabbed around the waist from behind, pinch the attacker either under the arm (between the elbow and armpit) OR in the upper inner thigh VERY VERY HARD .


One woman in a class this guy taught told him she used the underarm pinch on a guy who was trying to date rape her and was so upset she broke through the skin and tore out muscle strands - the guy needed stitches. Try pinching yourself in those places as hard as you can stand it - it hurts.


14) After the initial hit, always GO for the GROIN . I know from a particularly unfortunate experience that if you slap a guy's parts it is extremely painful. You might think that you'll anger the guy and make him want to hurt you more, but the thing these rapists told our instructor is that they want a woman who will not cause a lot of trouble. Start causing trouble and He's out of there.


15) When the guy puts his hands up to you , grab his first two fingers and bend them back as far as possible with as much pressure pushing down on them as possible. The instructor did it to me without using much pressure, and I ended up on my knees and both knuckles cracked audibly.


16) Of course the things we always hear still apply. Always be aware of your surroundings , take someone with you if you can and if you see any odd behavior, don't dismiss it, go with your instincts!!!
You may feel a little silly at the time, but you'd feel much worse if the guy really was trouble.


1 . Tip from Tae Kwon Do : The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do!


2. Learned this from a tourist guide in New Orleans. If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM . Toss it away from you....chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you, and h! e will go for the wallet/purse. RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!


3. Ifyou are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy. The driver won't see you, but everybody else will. This has saved lives.


4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc.) DON'T DO THIS! The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, put a gun to your head, and tell you where to go. AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR, LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.
a. If someone is in the car with a gun to your head DO NOT DRIVEOFF, repeat: DO NOT DRIVEOFF! Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking the car. Your Air Bag will save you. If the person is in the back seat they will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes bail out and run. It is better than having them find your body in a remote location.


5 . A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot or parking garage:
A.) Be aware: Look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor, and in the back seat.
B.) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women are attempti! ng to get into their cars.
C.) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)


6.ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. (Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot. This is especially true at NIGHT!)


7.If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times. And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN, preferably in a zigzag pattern.


8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP! It may get you raped or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well-educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked 'for help' into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim!


9. Another Safety Point: Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late and she thought it was weird. The police told her 'Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door. 'The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get! run over. The policeman said, 'We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do, DO NOT open the door.' He told her that they think a serial killer has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby. He said they have not verified it , but have had several calls by women saying that they hear baby's cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night. Please pass this on and DO NOT open the door for a crying baby ---- This should be taken seriously because the Crying Baby theory was mentioned on America's Most Wanted this past Saturday when they profiled the serial killer in Louisiana.


I'd like you to forward this to all the women you know. It may save a life. A candle is not dimmed by lighting another candle. I was going to send this to the ladies only, but guys, if you love your mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, etc., you may want to pass it on.

I know its not supposed to be funny, but I can't help laughing. :D
