The Tale of the Postiso

"hala! hi-tech lagi na iyang ngipon Ma! mo up and down..."
Damn! I suddenly realized that my penchant for making fun of people started way back... long time ago... "God! i should be punished! but please include those who laughed together with me!!" Way back in high school, i was already a mockerer of human race... once i had a teacher ( i dare not name... too sacred) who despite being rich is having a bad-postiso day always... why bad? because as far as i know postiso is supposed to fit in the gum without loosening, so you have the "real-teeth" experience; but her's is noticeably loose that it goes up and down everytime she speaks... blame it on me if you will, but who could concentrate listening to a lecture when you always have this compulsion to catch the postiso in case it falls... Come on!! BLAME me!! Who cares about the Napoleon Bonaparte, when i only want that damn postiso saved from total destruction once it falls!!!
the whole situation is very much like sitting in front of another lecturer who gives you saliva shower everytime he opens his mouth! How could he pretend everything is okay? Gosh! it was total torture! Come on! are we spit-containers?
Anyway , back to the postiso, Well, me, Lory and Mary..are trying to be good.. really. So we read novels during her class (Judith McNaught), to avoid the inevitable postiso episode.. But Mary got caught... As like all compulsions, needs action manifestation or else we'll get psychotic if unexpressed... so we started the "Tally the Ups-and- Downs" stuff. It was so scientific that we have a tally-sheet and we systemaically synchronized our times so we started and end at the same phase...Man, hard-sweat!! totally hilarious , i could remember Lory's serious face doing it...if got caught, our teacher could throw us out of the window...
Over-all, it saved us from total boredom which could have killed us in that very unholy hours...
Looking back, that Postiso episode had helped me alot in my life... It taught me
  • how to stiffle "dangerous" fun and resort to something safe but with the same net effect
  • that making -fun is not bad unless you get caught
  • that i was a good actress...i could feign pretty well
  • that teeth should be taken cared of...really well.. brush even those you don't need... like those "suhi" teeth
  • if the postiso fits, wear it baby...if it feels good put it on.. but if it's not right then just maybe, it's better if you leave it alone soaked in the baso
  • all people can be a laughing stock...no matter who u are...
  • for secret reason, I took Psychology because of that postiso...

-to the teacher, i onced laughed...Don't worry mam, I will have my time!!
