A boring Sunday full with Linguistics, literally. Alternating between studying for Linguistic quiz (gag me) and doing Linguistics assignment (surprisingly, writing about chimpanzees is fun). Add in a few doses of chocolate and junk food, that's pretty much my Sunday.
Well, until an hour ago. The proud members of K3E, well, half of it anyways, brave the hair raising experience of becoming plumbers for the Sunday night. It all started with us discovering that our pipe in the bathroom was stuck, for when we shower, the water won't go down. Well, it will, just super slowly. It soon turned to a pretty scary experience to shower, what with all the guggling sound that the blocked pipe will make and the glimpse of mouse like thing that I saw during my peek down the black pipe. Okay, fine, so I admit that it wasn't a mouse, it was just moi blind without my specs, but nobody showers with their specs on, okay?
So, anyways, it all started with Zaza trying to unscrew the, er, the thing under the sink that supposed to trap dirts and whatsorts. Unsuccessful but not giving up, we went on search for a plunger. Borrowed one from the house on the floor below ours, but it wasn't successful because the plunger was too small. So Zaza and Amelia tried poking the hole down the pipe with disposable chopsticks. Loading the hole with water till it flooded, still, it remained stuck. Never mind, we returned it back, and borrowed another one from another house. This time, the plunger was slightly bigger, but unfortunately, it didn't help much with the situation too.
Feeling dejected, we decided to try poking the hole with a long stick. Found a suspicious looking ball of something icky. Out came the flashlight to aid our vision, and it turned out that the mouse that I saw was literally a hairball. A big one, mind you. So, the bravest of all, Amelia came to the rescue. Despite fearing that it might really turned out to be a dead mouse, Amelia bravely stuck her hand down the hole and took out the disgusting ball of hair. People, give her a round applause! That, my dear folks, is truly an act of bravery. Imagine taking out the disgusting gunk that MIGHT be a dead mouse. If it's a dead mouse it will truly be an experience that will scar us for life.
Okay, after getting rid of the disgusting hairball, we filled the hole with water again. A blue cap floated up, but after that, it was all good. The pipe isn't stuck any more. Yay!
Salute to the brave Amelia and Zaza who got themselves dirty while trying to unstuck the pipe. Your bravery shall always remain a historical moment in K3E. Cheers!
