Forever friends
At the beginning of every semester, I send out my timetable to a few close friends; I did this at first by request, then out of habit. I figured it'd be easier to arrange dinners and even mid-lecture lunches, if we were in the vicinity of one another. It caught on. Now during the semester, I always have a couple of timetables -- that are not mine -- stuck onto my notice board.
A couple of months ago, X asked if I were free for dinner.
"I have an evening lecture," I sighed. "Why don't you just print out my timetable and stick it up?"
"Okay, I have something to confess," she stammered.
"You're too lazy to print it out?" I guessed.
"Worse!" she replied guiltily. "You know how you send me your timetable every sem? Now I always wait for that e-mail to come so that I can modify it and print my own timetable!"
"And the reason that you cannot draw up your own timetable is...?" I inquired.
She replied sheepishly: "I don't know how to draw tables, lah!"
You know it's a friendship built for life when this ranks as the most major "confession" in our history.

(Don't tell anyone, but I think your friends might secretly be flattered that you'd want to use their timetable for your own! :p)
