A lil' lesson on sacarsm

I talked to my parents on Skype last night. My mum wanted to tell me not to get into arguments with other people in class as she thinks someone might just walk into class and start shooting all of us. If only she knows how classes are like here. You cannot NOT participate, since it would constitute you turning into a shadow and earning a big fat zero on your class participation grade. You just have to be civilised and coherent in your argument and no one will want to punch you ever. They will just respect you more.

And being Chinese-educated, she dosen't get my sacarsm (please check the dictionary for sacarsm mummy) on my blog entires at all, so once and for all, I am not unhappy or having a fight with my room mate. She is nice and extremely funny. She just doesn't like to have her name and pictures posted online for the whole world to see. And it dosen't help that my sister is too lazy to explain my entries to my mum.

Please stop treating my words so seriously Mummy. Or else I might just have to blog in Chinese, heaven forbid.

Good heavens "Boggart" please do not blog in chinese or I'll be in trouble. I'm enjoying your blog so much and it amuses me at times. I can see your mum's point of view. There're lots of news regarding shooting in US uni of course she's worried. However, participation is good otherwise you might just as well not be there. Your sister is probably too busy taking care of her kitty! And by the way, what is wrong with Australian Milo? They're nice sprinkled in ice-cream. You're right. That tune is annoyingly buzzing in my head!!

Hi Aunty Di,

Australian Milo has a weird milky taste which I don't like. How's Uncle Georges? I have been picking alot of French words recently as a result of often hanging out with five french girls. Comment allez-vous?
