- In humility and retardation -
I hope Anthony doesn't mind me calling him Ant >.<
But dialogue-ing is hard! But yeah yesterday was another adventurous day at uni, as it always is! We have expeditions, sometimes failures when we meet our nemesis, and soemtimes successes when we conquer the castles evils. ANd other shit like that. Yeah, right here in ol' UWA.
But yesterday was a different sort of adventure. Not the usual slay the dragon type of adventure. But slay the scientific myth of mentos with Coke. The shit that we did to get our stuff! We had everything there. And our first attempt failed cos we used normal coke. In fact, it was diet Coke instead. So we trekked back to our 'resources' centre to get our 'diet' coke. Only to find out that they were going to be a delay to our mission! Darn resources centre. So we bought ourselves a small bottle of diet coke, and tried that out.
Even though I recorded this mission with confidence to show everybody our successes, I rather not show you ... yet. But here's is the dialogue.
(So we started to set up everything, yet Michelle already foresaw failure)
mich/omg! its not gonna work!
ant/maybe try unscrew the lid a little bit.
mich/ why wont it work!!
(watching the mentos fizzle in the bottle)
lis/this is getting uninteresting
ant/ you gotta stick more in
lis/yeah we only put one in!
ant/ yeah we should've put three.
mich/ wat the hell, this is stupid!
ant/ wat if it doesnt work
mich/ it looks like its gonna work
lis/ ok i think you need two more - two more!
mich/ i think its coming up
lis/ two - one more!
ant/ ok go go go go!
mich/ no its coming up!
ant/ yeah we want it faster!
ant/ here it comes..
lis/ its gonna be like...
*FAILURE* (and all break into histerics)
ant/ this is so bad!
It was much more interesting while we were there. I was in histerics the whole time. I felt like a little kid. I think we're gonna attempt it again or soemthing. But properly this time. 2L of DIET COKE and a TUBE of mentos. And we put at least FOUR in together.
I wanna play with fireworks hey. This all reminds me of my childhood memories in Malaysia...
maybe i'll put up the vid. but i don't know if i'm ready to humiliate myself on my own blog.
Speaking of humiliation, I don't think I can show my face around Burswood anymore. Because I've been there, what, how long? AND THERE's ALREADY RUMOURS ABOUT ME =((
Not happy, not proud (in a denying sort of way) and what can I do really?
Quit? And this is what my friend told me when I asked her about it:
This is the OFFICIAL welcome to Burswood Convention Centre staff.
eh?

(Michelle kindly -involuntarily- walks to put more in)
mich/ ok if it explodes in my face when i get there-
lis/ we'll compensate you with coke!
mich/ i think i'll have enough coke for a life time(Michelle puts in the mentos and runs of like it was really gonna explode. Aparantly we did as well the first time)
ant/ i think we need more hey
