Oral Examinations

Yesterday, I had my english and chinese preliminary oral examination. When I was in my school canteen, I waited only 5 minutes as I was nearly late. We, the morning group, then went to the school hall.

There were chairs aligned neatly with labels on them telling us our group and the room number. We went to our chairs with our assigned groups. We were then told to sit in our register number. Although there were 7 classes and six numbers in my group till me, I had to wait for an hour. As I waited for the hour, I revised my oral examination notes and read a science fiction book that I brought.

I made a mistake for each of the examinations, Chinese and English. For the English examination, when I said that my neighbourhood was peaceful, I said something that was different from it.

For the Chinese examination, I didn't say anything about the driver looking very surprised.

After the examinations, I walked to the Lecture Theatre only to find that there was a movie going on about Raffles. (They did not tell us about that.)

Killer litter


Warning: This article contains chinese characters.

While I was reading my much loved Reader's Digest, I heard shouts coming from the opposite flat. I immediately rushed to the balcony to see what had happened. A couple were standing beside the window.

At first I thought the shouts were from the man, but when I saw another man throw down an incense burner, I knew the shouts were from him. He started to throw other things down, like a bicycle, a potted plant, a red cloth, something that looked like a dustbin and its cover. He shouted at the residents who were looking outside from their windows.

It was not long before the police came, and the man kowtowed to them. The man was arrested.
There was a post on about the litter, by 小彬彬.

"今天早上真是有够drama的!

早上八点多还在睡梦中,就被巨响吵醒。以为没什么还想再睡,就听到楼下很多人七嘴八舌,还有很多人跑来跑去的声音。于是走到窗口往下望。不得了,早地上一堆杂物,有鞋子,盆栽,还有脚踏车,和烧冥纸的桶!

听说是一名男子突然攻击一对男女,据说男子还想抢女的项链。后来男子追到楼梯口,见到东西就往下抛!所以咯,把人家的脚踏车、鞋架、盆栽什么的都往下丢!就连烧冥纸用的桶也不放过,全部一律往下丢。

还好警察及时来到,把男子押上警车。不过男子好像想逃走,在警车里大喊大叫!

不懂后来男子怎样了!幸好他丢东西的时候,没有人再楼下,要不然就惨了!"


(By the way, the man was throwing the things down from a staircase, almost similar to the case my dad saw.)
