-guffaw- YJ is such a lame guy! We were just chatting on MSN, and the topic of our conversation, of all things, was Toilet Bowls -.-" To think that when I first met him I had thought that he was just another typical arrogant guy who loves acting cool, lol. But after working with him on PW for some time I began to realise that he's really a very funny guy; he has no qualms about doing damage to his own 'image' by acting out the extremely-crappy-and-yet-so-funny-that-it-can-make-you-laugh-till-you-cry script which I have written for our PW skit, he shares a sense of humor which is very similar to mine, and sometimes his jokes are so lame that they make me laugh non-stop. Here is one of the scenes from my script:
SM (Teacher): Now, does anyone have anything to say? YJ (Student): (raising his hand up excitedly) 'Cher, 'cher, I have something to say. (proceeds to say something which sounds very stupid, but at the same time is undeniably relevant to our project and necessary in our skit.)
He sounded very funny when he said, " 'Cher, 'cher," lol. And to think he actually managed to look really enthusiastic when he raised up his hand. You need a certain degree of lame-ness to be present in your character before you could execute this scene with such natural fluency. He was so laughter-inducing that he makes me laugh whenever I replay that scene in which he raised up his hand in an oh-so-elated manner in my mind. Hey that is a compliment, I love laughing and I like people who make me laugh -beam- But you can argue that I'm always laughing so much that it is rarely an achievement to make me laugh.
Oh ya there was also this scene which required ZX, Hsiang and him to record their lines in a casette tape so that it can be played during the skit as narrations of their inner thoughts. ZX's was extremely hilarious, lol:
ZX: I really do hope that she addresses my PROblem... My FAmiLY is in DIre straits now, and I don't Even KNOW if I can afford to continue my studies ANymore... I WANT to apply for the school's pocket MOney fund, but I'm afraid that my friends will thus look down on me... I do not wish to quit school and go out to work, just to support my FAmily...
Her intonation was so hilarious that it just cracked the whole class up, lol. Initially we were wondering how we could make the audience understand that the recorded narrations were actually the inner thoughts of the characters in the skit, and several lame suggestions were brought up:
SM: I know! (she rests her elbow on the table and sticks out her right index finger with a sudden jerk, and then touches her temper with it while resting the weight of her head on that finger, and at the same time looking heavenwards with a thoughtful look) How about that? It is a clear indication that the characters are in deep thought.
ZX, HL, YJ and I: (laugh)
SM:Oi!
ZX, HL, YJ and I: (stifling our laughter) OK, but... It is not normal.
ZX: I know, I know! We can do this: (clasps her hands together, and holds them just under her chin, while looking heavenwards with a I'm-cute-so-give-me-sweets expression)
SM, HL, YJ and I: This is even more abnormal.
And at this point in time, someone from another PW group came to our rescue! (imagine Superman with his fist in the air as his cape moves along with the rhythm of the breeze) TA-TA-DA-TA-DA!
Someone (uhh I don't remember who): I know! All of you can stand up and pretend to look as if you're in deep thought as your pre-recorded narrations are being played!
HL, ZX, YJ: HMMM!
And HL, ZX and YJ actually agreed, lol. They looked absolutely cute when they acted that scene out; in fact they looked so cute that I wished I had a camera-phone to record it down lol.
I love my PW group :) ZX, I'm so going to miss you :(
