Killer Chemistry paper aside... almost died today. Really. Like, die. Stop breathing die.

Only of laughter.

JESUS H CHRIST. Chester you are mad.

Okay. Extremely long post ahead. I swear, this is worth knowing about. (I know I'm atheist. Shh. Just a figure of speech.)

Normal day. Went to Mac's for dinner after a free Physics lesson from Alan. ACS(I) paper was so bloody easy. Makes you go "Yea, just pay money to get in. Don't need any smarts." Curry sauce was running out pretty quickly. We finished 4 in like 8 minutes or something. Then Ches dared us to take 10 curry sauce. This sparked off a series of insane, ridiculously funny dares.

We settled for "Take a french fry from a girl" dare. Unfortunately, there were no not many people in Macs at that time. So, we changed it to the "Wear a cap, jacket and mask (those SARS masks), buy an ice-cream, eat it a table away from someone and cough as loud as you can" dare. Chester happily obliged.

We went ballistic the MOMENT he left the table with his attire. Badges off of course, the whole lot of us. We're from St Pats :D. So he bought the ice-cream. The guy at the counter actually asked him "How are you going to eat the ice-cream?" Promptly dao-ed. Nice touch.

Now, picture this. A guy wearing a bright yellow jacket, white cap and mask carrying FOOD. ICE-CREAM. He got stares, naturally, but not half as much as when he started eating. It was insane. Chester gave his trademark hacking cough. I swear, THE WHOLE RESTAURANT TURNED. People were pointing and speaking in hushed whispers. This carried on for 5 minutes, with Bobby filming everything. Yes, even Bobby the camera man got stared at. It's funny. I mean everyone's studying for the exams and they suddenly all look up in unison.

But wait. It's CHESTER LUM we're talking about. Not some run of the mill funny guy. He's a moral failure, man with degenerative principles, social reject type of guy. No, it's not enough.

A bunch of Indian primary schoolers sat down with a large packet of fries and chatted happily. Chester went over, ICE-CREAM IN HAND, MASK WORN and asked "Want to see magic trick?" The little kids were stunned. One boy said "Okay." Chester reached out for a fry, stretched his mask and popped it in. "There, disappear. No more." He left the bewildered kids. Oh, it got shocked reactions from around the area. The mother of the kid was starting and shaking her head in disbelief. Disgraceful? Nah. HELLA FUNNY.

I'm telling you, our table nearly exploded with laughter. Everyone's faces turned scarlet. MC almost had coke dribbling out of his nose. I had phglem stuck in my throat until I had breathing difficulties. Couples, families, Ah Bengs, EVERYONE turned to look. My god. Never laughed that hard in my life. No, it's not funny just reading this. You have to BE THERE. You gotta see it personally and know what's going on.

Congrats Chester, you're $8 richer. Han Cong didn't pay though. CHEAPO :X. You sir, Chester, are my new Jesus.

Oh, that wasn't the only dare. A group of Chester's friends had their own dares. "Switch off the TV" dare. And the never-attempted "Sip a hot girl's drink" dare. Insanity. Madness. LAUGHTER.

I'll tell you guys what. If the guys permit it I'll upload the video in time to come.

Tomorrow will be Bobby's "Take 5 ballons from the McDonalds counter" dare. Good luck buddy.
