my silence

Innocent children, they, i envy
face beaming and carefree glee
Afar places robbed my time
Still I trust there is a reason..

A knock on door stills the room
My legs yearn to sit still
Timid I grew though none expect
Why oh why my soul you sigh?

Dirty words incessant tempt
Mercy i pray bestowed on me
But my strength is weak and my heart faints
Could this all come to an end?

Your body is a wonderland..

..as the title says.





I would like to first clarify that the tone of this post would slightly differs from my previous ones. No..No, it would not sound 'clingy' or 'sexy' in every bit, i apologize if the title happens to lure you into such thought. But i would like to warn you beforehand that this post has the capability to bore you to sleep especially when you fall under the category of human beings that lack vitamin I..'Imagination'.





As you go through this post, i would love it if you could envision me as a teacher (tall preferably) wearing a green-coloured collared shirt with a grey vest on the outside and a pencil-shaped beige skirt with a creme coloured heels, standing straight in front of a classroom, hair tied neatly in ponytail. And you happened to be one of my student sitting attentively in my class.





I start speaking:





Up to this time, the media has faithfully boasted some gawking statistics of people, young and old that committed suicide for various reasons, take drugs.. not forgetting trading them too and smoke for reason as vain as lookin 'cool'...





Nope..nope.. i am not saying they are guilty in any way neither do i accuse them of being 'stupid', 'ignorant' or 'lack of proper guidance'





All i am interested in is to carry out my solemn duty as your teacher and take you on a 'tour' as to what is in your body. o i forgot to inform you, I am your Biology teacher and erm so, please stay awake..





You probably asked how in anyway does Biology related to those previously mentioned statistics of suicide cases, drugs or smoking. I am afraid i can't answer you first or else I get bored very easily in my explanation and as a teacher who is paid meagerly teaching in this school, i am not at all so anxious in answering all of your questions. I am just here to carry out my duty and please stay awake that if the headmaster passes by, your 'attentiveness' will impress him and this is certainly crucial for my bonus this month.





Anyway, i would like to start from the most cliche word used in this 'CSI' generation..DNA to be exact. The structure of DNA is like spaghetti wrapped in meatballs. Literally. You can google for the pics as homework. But this is not the most boring fact about it, the 2 metre length of sphaghetti strand is actually rolled up to fill a 5 micrometer diameter of a nucleus (a hole smaller ..i mean smaller to the power of 3 than the tip of your hair). So, it's like having a strand of thin rope as tall as Yao Ming and rolling it up to be as big as your mole..i mean..as small as ..its even invisible to your eyes. So, when you grow up and are interested to open a packaging company, please consult your DNA. Nothing in the world beats its compression ..or if you are a frequent traveller and have trouble in packing your luggage, you can learn something from here..hopefully. I mean it is not extraordinary at all but you can still consider it.


Next, I shall move on to the more advance stage of this module meaning from first chapter, I shall now slide my way to the 5th chapter. For your info, chapters in between are to be studied on your own. My apology but I just can’t stand talking about things which are too basic, it literally bored me to…life.

Do you have any idea how different are human beings(like you and I), from monkeys? Well, im sure most of you would try to stifle your laughter upon hearing this question and I’m pretty sure that all of you would have known the answer. Yes, indeed we are 90% similar…..(roughly).
But perhaps you do not know that actually, we have very very very similar DNA with them. And cross your finger and thank God, if you believe in one, or if not, count it on your pure luck, that by chance, you are not one of them. Because the only minute difference is the kind of protein generated in them and in us ..phew huh…

*******Rrrrrr-----iinnnggggggggggg******

Ok class, we shall continue tomorrow…please read up, or well, up to you. After all, you are not monkey right.
