Before I forget, thanks to XW and Emily for the emails containing "Happy Birthday", to my Sunday School people, Delia, Louis etc for wishing me Happy Birthday in church, and to JiaYun, KX and Mel for the smses, Jessica for the late wishes over msn, and this unknown number whom I'm too lazy to ask who it is.

Anyway, I was thinking about how it's going to be elections very soon. And it seems only yesterday we were sitting in LT5 listening to the speeches of the then J1s, when Cheryl Sim was running for P with that poster thing, Prashanth was running for Treasurer, etc.

And then the year after that when Deborah, CL and I think Tammy were running for P; I remember XY being the only guy running for VP; CW promising not to use choir funds for food if she was Treasurer, and it was held in LT2/LT3. Also the year when I became SL. I remember how my legs shook after our names appeared on the powerpoint slide.

Last year it was held in the AVA, and of course I know everyone who ran for the posts. It kind of makes you feel old to know you'll be sitting through your fourth election in a few days.

I just finished my GP comprehensions, all 4 of them. Wow, I feel SO ACCOMPLISHED. Do you hear the underlying sarcasm? Because if I hadn't been slacking, I could've finished them in a day. But I've been taking 3 hour breaks between each paper. 2 papers a day. Breaks between the paper sections, even. LOL.

As for something funny, I was watching a cartoon this morning out of boredom (House of Mouse on Disney), and in the cartoon there was a power failure because the main battery had been ripped out by the villain and left on the floor. Then Mickey Mouse exclaimed "Oh no! Someone assaulted our battery!"

I found it funny, because I think people usually sue for "assault AND battery". Maybe I'm wrong.

Another cartoon (Powerpuff Girls) I saw when I was bored was a story about this psychic who was a conwoman. She was flying on her evil bird sidekick when she got shot out of the sky and fell into someone's barbecue pit. And the narrator said, "It's rare to see a medium so well done."

It helped that we were eating steak when I retold this on Sunday.
