Amazing how you look back on the week every fri about how the whole week went by so quickly, but somehow, when you're in it, things happen so slow (especially when projects are in the picture). What all of us would give to have 5 weekends and only 2 weekdays. hahaha.
Recently, i've been quite intrigued at rhetorical questions, about how stupid some can get, but still make sense to a certain extent. Ben lim (Mr whole-life-revolve-around-guitar) seems to be crazy about it and even made some to call his own. And no, i don't blame him, JC would do that to me also if i were in there studying. haha. Sometimes the way people describe the difficulty of jc pass the line of education and into another realm of itself, which actually scares some, including myself occasionally. Maybe i should compile it all," Marcus Lee's true JC stories". An all black cover with all editions having 2 eyes staring straight at you, namely the principal's. haha. Back to the point, here are some of those questions, i especially love 6 and 7.
1) If water is clear, why do clothes get darker when you wet them with water? 2) Imagine you're driving a car so fast till you reach the speed of light, what would happen if you decided to turn on the headlights? 3) When you shout," I'm behind the tree!" How would you know you're behind? 4) Where does the white go when snow melts? 5) Shampoos/Soaps all come in different colours. But why does the foam always turn out white? 6) If one synchronized swimmer drowns halfway, what do the rest do? 7) Imagine a pair of identical twin sisters, marry a pair of identical twin brothers. Both pairs of twins have no relation to each other. If both couples give birth to a son, will both sons look the same?
If some show like brainiac or mythbusters were to engage in qn 7 and solve it, i shall place all resources i can to the experiment and i hope you would too. Tell me if you're an identical twin. It would surely help. hahaahaha.
Anyway, the week's been great except for various clashes, which all happened on the same day. You know, the kind where you don't want to disappoint either group of friends but still have to make a decision. Everything aside, on tues, i went along with my theatre friends. They are a really fun bunch of people, and i would say a good mix also. haha. Some of us even have curfews at 7pm!! But of course, we still love them. =) So, we went out to watch our teacher act in the play "Macbeth". I'm sure many of you have heard of it, the one by Shakespeare. But stop to think for a second.......do you know what it's about? What stupidity, being in the know of such a story for so long but never knowing the story. haha. The only Mac we know would probably be macdonald's.
Well, i decided this play would do me some good. At least i could finally be conversing with literature enthusiasts about something. And i was on my way, macbeth macbeth macbeth. I am going to find out what you are all about! So we got to the place. Ben drove the girls there (flirt. haha.) while the guys took a cab. He also brought his SLR.
Nanyang academy of fine arts. We were gonna watch a fine art. Notice the clock, 18:52, 8 minutes to 7pm.
We realised we were all there a little too early, so we stuck around for a bit.
Before long, it got hot and we decided to head in to wait instead. The place actually displays their props openly. I say good way to showcase and at the same time, maximise limited storage space. Handsigns at 7.
Just outside the exact venue. Being too early never is fun, we waited around again.
Till we forgot it was past 7! I had to capture this moment. This is Edah. A rare find these days. Shan't disclose why. haha.
And finally, we went in for the play. None of us had any real tickets cause we got them at student's price. Our ticket was just a paper stating," 9 students" and signed. I wanted a stub! haha. The play wasn't bad at all, though i couldn't control my fatigue at some points. Thank God for that interlude part, i really needed it. No pictures of the play. Copyright. haha. So to the end.
This is our teacher Mr Sonny! He played Macbeth, the main character (of course). His head was supposedly to be in the black bag nic (right side)was holding.
I dipped my hand into the bag and got myself another head.
And that concludes Macbeth. We went for supper nearby and laughed so loudly every other second, i would hate us if i wasn't part of us. haha. Filled up, we got into Ben's car where he drove us all home. I love him. hahaha. NOT the car but him. It was a blast in that vehicle of his.
As i took the short walk home (car to lift to house), i realised one thing though. WHAT IS MACBETH ABOUT??
So much for finally being able to find out. haha. till then.
