Somewhat ridiculous day today. We started off with a Etiquette talk about how to be a gentlemen. The speaker was really funny with his actions and his stories, some really disgusting though. He got Kaiser to spray cologne in public as a demo. He taught us how to stand, walk, sit and introduce others (seniors first)

That talk lasted until 9.40am. Then it was recess, until 11am. A nice lengthy session of slacking. I just got 3 pieces of French Toast, went back to class with Russell, finished it then realized that it was only 10am. Went back to the canteen, got a pack of French Fries, then sat and ate it. Soon after, Benedict came with his own pack of fries, filled with light sauce by accident, and chilli. The smell was horrendous. It's like a garbage bin, seriously. And he still said it was nice. Well, we sat there and talked. Benedict's recess was from 10 to 10.40, so we had twice the amount of their time. Soon after, Tristan came, then Xin Wei joined the group followed by Reuben. We sat and chatted until about 10.55am. Then we went to the hall to watch a movie.

Finding an authorized place to sit was the immediate problem as Hong Fu was not present to organize the class. In the end, Zhi Ming took a random spot. It was a really huge space. Keefe, San Zeng and I followed suit, after which Ming Xuan came. 5 minutes later, the whole class was clustered in that space, but all I cared about was that there was enough space to lie down and stretch my legs because that's the hardest part, sitting in the hall. Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within was shown, a 2001 movie which totally made no sense in the beginning. There was nothing at all to explain the events at the start, but the plot gradually unmasked itself. I felt that it was really lame but it did seem good for a movie in that era so yeah I shouldn't be complaining.

Half of the hall were immature people who clapped at every change of scene which they felt deserved a round of applause which was totally uncalled for. They were really idiots who felt that they were cool, to use a less insulting term. Well, Apollos kept disturbing pupils outside the hall who came to count the number of lights in the hall as it was part of their activity. He gave them random numbers and told them to go away. Meanwhile, San Zeng, Ming Xuan and I, we were fooling around for quite a bit.
