Jokes of this week!
















Erm.. for those who doesnt know this fellow.. Kuranyi, a footballer in the Germany national squad. He scored a goal two days ago and he was injured..

Someone suggested that now he bears the trademark of Harry Potter...

=============================

A few days ago, I was studying in the library with my friend till midnight. On our way back, we were walking on this quiet road, then my friend (who wishes to stay anonymous) grabbed my hand n said.. "Bear bear.. behind the tree.." I was like "Huh? What bear? where?" Then the person used a damn freaked out voice to tell me "behind the tree... let's walk.. quietly.." Somehow I remember someone told me that there is no bears on campus.. When we walk nearer, argh!! It was just a rock! (maybe that's why the person wishes to stay anonymous..)

=============================

Today we had some linear algebra test in class again.. When I went there, most of the people were busy reading their textbooks.. Then I saw the lovely green color-- the cover of the book is blue, BUT, there is such "low price edition" circulating in the market, the low price edition is green in color, 1/100 of the original price.. (my low price edition costs only $0.99 online, where the original one costs $128.00) BUT, "This edition is manufactured in India and is authorised for sale only in India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka and the Maldives.." I was quite suprised that many of my classmates are using the low price edition too..

Then the faked Rooney(prof) came in, he looked around and said, hmm.. seems some people in our class are from India, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka and the Maldives.. So all of us actually blushed, then the prof said, "Well, I used to be an Indian in my four years in college.. I understand.. Really..." =_=

=============================

ps: Do I really have that kind of innocent face? When I went to my English teacher's office hours, she said she thought that I was a poor little baby.. Like very fragile like that.. I was like.. Erm.. Okie..

People have asked me why my name is so damn bloody hard to pronounce, I would say it's not my problem. Just in case anyone who is interested to find out what the name actually means, here it is:

萱 pronounces as xuan, is the flower called daylily pictured above;

仲 pronounces as zhong, means I am the second child in the family

弦弦诉人意,弓弓道世情

可以高贵,可以平凡
可以不问英雄出处
可以痴情风流的二胡
一弦可以大江东去
一弦可以月游西湖
一曲未了竟有琴弦启开江南
让俏丽的姑娘
用浓浓的茉莉花语
从红袖里伸出酥手
把一个河山香透

My Erhu, My Forever Love
