Freeze!
Have you heard of Improv Everywhere? They’re a group that does fun pranks in New York. One of their most famous missions was the one where they got over 200 people to freeze in place in Grand Central.

That mission spawned numerous freezes around the world. And today, I was lucky enough to witness one. :D
I was at the 5th floor of the Pavillion, hunting down printer ink, when I noticed quite a lot of people looking down over the railings. Looking down, there were about 50-60 people who just froze there. Man was it fun to see the looks on some people’s faces. Most were just completely confused, some were laughing, and many, many people whipped out their cameras to take video. I would have taken pictures, but… it’s be pretty useless. And my h/p video is so bad… :(
Gotta find a video of that. -
This is madness
On the way to school I hummed “Bad Day” (Daniel Powter, of course).
Today was debate day, where we (finally) debate for the Paramount Championship in school. Our opponents: IB2. That’s the equivalent of A-Levels in Cempaka. What a great way to start off my first ever debate. Of course, that’s not the real problem.
First off, our second speaker got a sore throat. Once again, fantastic timing by Ms. Luck (she’s not married cause she’s a bitch). So we replaced her with K, who (no offense) can’t really speak well, plus hasn’t prepared a thing for the debate. That still isn’t the problem.
Then hours later, at 5 (yes FIVE) pm, the debate finally started. By the way, the topic was “Cosmetic Surgery Should Be Banned”, and we were the opposition. Anyways, at 5, we started, or rather, tried to start. However, it turns out that IB2 was also the opposition. WHAT
I don’t blame them though, they were told that they were the opposition. We on the other hand drew the lots and got opposition, but she of course wrote it down wrongly. Sigh.
Anyways, we debated. Opposition vs opposition. This was probably the funniest debate I have ever watched. Picture two sides, talking about the same points in different ways. Imagine having to contradict your own points just so you can rebut their points. Imagine that the whip (that’s me, I’m supposed to only rebut points and reaffirm my side’s points) rebutting by saying that cosmetic surgery is BAD, then on the next sentence saying that we need to regulate cosmetic surgery. Now imagine that both sides were doing that.
Well anyways, they won. That was expected and not at all surprising. What was surprising was that it was apparently a close fight. We are almost as good as IB students? :O
Also, I have “potential, please try again next year”.
Oh, and THIS IS SPARTAAA!!!
