Where are my acquaintances?

I still remember this buck-toothed guy called Shawn.
He was from Glassgow, the house, not part of the United Kingdom, in case you forgot or you're totally oblivious.
We played a friendly game in the toilet, I only met him in the toilet it seemed.
Whoever walked into the toilet and saw the other at the urinal, he would stadle up next to him a respectable one urinal away. Then it would start.
'Stupid Shawn.'
'Stupid Ernest.'
'Stupid Shawn.'
'Stupid Ernest.'
'Stupid Shawn.'
The we shared a laugh and walked out of the toilet. The guy with the last line (and usually first to finish) would win and the looser graciously accepting defeat by continuing to stare down into the abyss below his crotch, as most guys do when they are alone. Mind you, it is the abyss and not the crotch we're staring into/at.
Strangely, I never bumped into him outside of the toilets. He was a doubtful figment of immagination then and even now.
Where are you Stupid Shawn?

Updates

The China trip is confirmed. They reached Singapore this morning at 545. Didnt go down to get them,I slept for 15 hours yesterday.
Chris's grandmother didn't 'gua' when he got back.
It was quater a caffnine pill not half. And you dont have to scratch it to a powder.
I didn't go back to Roysth, i ended up along the beach with Kenneth, Terance and Law. We had those 7 Eleven thingy drinks. Actually they lured me by asking them to go trash Law's house. But somehow we decided to go bowling, where it was too crowded so we ended up talking about the 2C Victorian Challenge while stuffing ourselves with donuts and kit kats. Then we played at the HDB playground for a while. Kenneth didnt.
Ha. Then we went back to our primary school, Ngee Ann Primary. Actually it was just close by and I thought aloud. 'Why dont we just pretend we were from Ngee Ann Primary and just walk straight in.' So we did and we were from Class 6-3 and our form teacher was a generic Mr Tan. Some Victorians caught us and foiled our plan. It was then that we fled and in our hurry, I dropped Terance's handphone.
Then I went home and slept for 15 hours straighh. And watched 3 and a half DVDs and a EPL weekly.
So how was your Chinese New Year like?

A Birthday, A Secret, A Crush, A Funeral, A Trip to China, An A Maths Test and a Caffeine Pill soon.

Today was very eventful. It was just begging to be blogged.
Today was Chris's birthday. All the lack of action (subtle chasing around classroom) and plans of jacking or flag poling is a general silent rule when it's Chris's day.
Roy was helped into expressing his secret crushy feelings for a certain LT.
Birthday boy had to go back early cuz his grandmother was soon going to , I quote, 'gua'( with that cute sound Chris makes) soon. He has to travel straight back to Malaysia. I didn't know how to bid him farewell. How do you show sympathy to a macho giant? 'Have fun!' sounded a little offensive. I tried mouthing the words to no one in particular to see the effect. So i just uttered a weak 'bye'.
I was somehow choosen with See Kiat, Wei Shan, Kyne, Clement and Ray Hng to go for the BaoDing exchange. The Chinese are coming down next week. Good thing we dont have to entertain anyone at home. We don't really celebrate Chinese New Year.
Then relief Sensei Nakazawa gave us the A Math test. (Qn 3's answer is 3%! I got that right!)
Roy, Zad and I discussing his options about LT on the bus back home. Joel and Timothy totally oblivious with their headphones on. Only Timothy could be seen laughing silently when he heard Roy going 'LT is mine I tell you, MINE!' I not dozing off back home today. Need to take a caffeine pill later. The trick is to use a penkife to scrape half of the pill into powder. Dissolve in Gatorade and served chilled. Recipe courtsey of National Geographic!
