today was the best day of my life.
so good, it shot my adrenaline level sky high!
today was the day my dnt group presented our dinosaur model!!
TA-DAH!

we were the first group.
when mrs tan called for us, we stood up and slowly made our way towards the front.
palms sweating, knees shaking, cue cards trembling and voice shaky, i greeted the class.
ever noticed that we've been doing lots of presentations lately?
but i always feel nervous before one.
wonder why.
anyway,
the whole presentation went quite well...
up till the last part.
oh my gawd.
we added in a last paragraph to ian's speech about marketing our product
(not that anyone would ever buy it)
and he screwed up for that part.
hang on, notice that i, YES, ME, JACLYN THE INCREDIBLE PRAT, DIDNT, UNDERLINE IN RED, DIDNT screw up?
thank you thank you
ian was supposed to say his new part just before evonne closed our presentation but mr i-know-everything went mute when he was supposed to say it.
all of us looked expectantly at him.
he looked back at us with wide curious eyes.
minutes, hours, days, weeks, years ticked by.
ok wait, thats really exaggerating it.
anyway, i expertly positioned my foot approximately 40 degrees north-west and prepared to give him a real good kick in the shins as a subtle hint to get him talking
but before i could do that, evonne rambled on and brought our presentation to a close.
and as fast as you can say "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" the clueless ian then jumped in with our marketing plans (once again, not that anyone would want to buy it anyway) amid thunderous applause.
wow whee.
but despite our little screw up, mrs tan seemed...
well...
seemed amused and fascinated by how good a job we did with our model
which i might add, isnt easy to make.
"they did quite a good job with their model, and it can move with very big motions, which is very good already."
good? its MORE than good.
"the last time i saw it, it was in bits and pieces and now they brought it back all fixed, its quite a feat."
i couldnt have said it better myself.
haha.

the other groups were quite ok.
but seriously, their models pale in comparison with us.
not that i'm bragging, but its a fact.

when alex presented,
she forgot her lines and she had to refer to them.
which were ingeniously printed out in black ink on her palm.
haha!
the entire class (including mrs tan herself) laughed and she turned redder than beetroot.
notice once again that i, YES JACLYN THE INCREDIBLE PRAT DIDNT, UNDERLINE IN RED, DIDNT screw up.
haha!
ok thats mean.
...
HAHA!
(sorry alex)

here are some images of our wonderful, almost perfect but still quite perfect model-REX!
look at its cute mug!
(did you know that just by turning it's cranks, you can actually relieve your stress? which adds another feather to it's cap by making it somesort of a stress reliever)
mightier than thou.
mwahahahaha!
how cute...
but of course, what lies beneath this supposedly cute woody exterior??
AHHHHHHH!!
the making of Jurassic Park Three.
the looming shadow of doom.
a job well done, ICHIBAN!
