Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
I am Yours

Scripting is insane.
Anyway, we, or maybe just I, had a blast at P.E. today. Boys Vs Girls, and I daresay girls were much better than last time. I sweated a whole lot. It was awesome.
At Art we were dismissed late for lunch, and on the way back to class, Vivian, Yanting, Wan Zheng, Yea Wen, Olive and I encountered our principal talking to Jeremiah and a few of the other guys. Then he rounded on us and introduced this little laptop to us, asking our opinion. The screen is too small, I say. But our prinicipal is a good guy. He's truly Singaporean, but very Nan Hua as well. A father figure for the "Nan Hua big family".
Then after school I sat for English oral. Gr. I was nervous, but I thought I did okay. Swallowed my words a bit, I think but otherwise it was okay.
So... today's topic? Let's talk funny.
Funny has many definitions. Hilarious, and weird. Hilarious as in something which makes you smile or laugh and there is nothing to talk about that. We want to talk about weird as in unusual and not normal.
What makes you think something is funny? If it is not ordinary? If everyone else does not think it's normal? Let's talk people. What makes a person funny, weirdness-wise? If that person is not like others? If that person is not well-liked?
I sit at the edge of the classroom, so sometimes I get left out of conversations. I'm not really the kind of person to initiate conversations, so I wonder if I didn't make friends with the people around me, would I be considered funny? If I didn't make myself accepted, would I be outcast? Then what chooses if we are funny or not? Is it ourselves? Or is it inevitable? Is there a way to make yourself unfunny? Then what defines unfunny?
Is it that we make ourselves to be liked so we won't be called unfunny? How do we do it then? Subconsciousness maybe.
Oh well. I don't have time to think much. I have exams to revise for, scripts to phrase and videos to watch.
By the way, Stacie Orrico was marvelous on Singapore Idol yesterday. I watched the whole Extra and Results Show waiting for her to appear. She didn't disappoint. Lovely.
Oh, while we're on the subject of funny, this is Fun-Nee.
