Journalism

Her: "Have you heard of anything else happening during orientation games? Other than taupok, pillaring, urine bombs, salted cookies?"

Me: "Nope."

Her: "None? Which secondary school were you from? What about then? Did you guys do anything outrageous or scandalous?"

Me: "Nope. As a matter of fact, we were really quite *guai."

Her: "Oh. Okay then. If you know of anyone who has anything..."

Me: "I'll let you know."

I'm not ecstatic about this brand of journalism. If you want to tell the whole story, tell them what I said about being guai. There are actually clean and fun ways to get to know people. (While we're at that, let's do away with the ketchup and starch, please!)

Let's not give parents the impression that all teenage activities are health hazards.

Name has been withheld to protect said journalist. Don't know why. I'll think of an excuse later.

*guai = obedient
