i had said that i would cease to make fun of other people's tuition kids, but i must make an exception for su-lin's newest boy, because anyone whose world is filled with pink bruised clouds in navy skies and ravishing smiles wrapped by juicy lips and carrier bags that would put ostrich eggs to shame is just asking for it. (though her other one is not much better - his people are found falling down simultaneously, one by one, doubtless because they are brought up in universities and therefore are weak and have soft backbones.) i asked su-lin why she took such torture upon herself with 10 days to go and she says that $240 is nothing to sniff at and that with a sensational imagination like his she would have at least something to work with. it is her belief that she can cure his incredibly bad style before the o's, but i maintain that it would take a lifetime of ruthless trampling on his feelings before she would cure him of his style. in this particular case a number of us have taken interest and await developments.
