Hi peeps,
Some people have been asking why am i known as a buffalo. More accurately, its a Bubalus bubalis (some people like to call it water buffalo, I prefer to sound smarter ;D). But anways, there's a tale of how i became to be known as such an animal (AND NO, IT IS NOT BECAUSE I LOOK LIKE ONE. whoever has the balls to say that shall be sorry.  )
Anyway, back to the story. It all happened a long time ago (historians, using a combination of carbon dating and electron microscopy, date it back to about 2008). We were having our Ventures initiation hike. Now ventures initiation is a tough event, as any Venture past or present will tell you. The horrors you go through turns you crazy. (And in case you were wondering, BENJAMIN NG CHERN WEI was sick that day, which is how he maintained his sanity)
So well, after a tough hike, Mr Eugene Lee, our teacher I/C at that time came to us with an evil smile on his face, "Hehehe boys, now take out your water bottles." I swear we all would have run away before he got the the 3rd he, if we hadn't already trekked to the North Pole and back (In any case, he had a van, so there wasn't any point anyway). So, we took our water tanks out of the 3-ton deadweight on our backs and proceeded to drink up.
Some joker couldn't finish his water. In fact, he had something like 30 gallons left. (I believe it was JoviFong. Everything bad should be somehow be traceable back to him). And all of us were chock full with our own water. The situation seemed bleak at that time (For illustration purposes, try to imagine the time LOTR when Rohan was broken and orcs were swarming into the throne room). Then to get a picture of what happened next, imagine the part where Gandalf appears on the horizon withthe sun rising behind him. Yep. Now replace Gandalf with a buffalo.
No, a buffalo did not walk out of the woods and steal our water ^-(..)-^ . I drank it all up in one gulp. It still amazes me how i found the stomach to. But anyway, I did and from then on they decided to give me the honorary title of Bubalus bubalis (Maybe it doesn't sound that honourable, but quit laugihng will ya?) And since then, I've become buffalo.
And so thats the legend of how i came to be a buffalo. Maybe, like every other myth, it was abit twisted and exaggerated after being passed by mouth through countless generation (what? i count as one generation k?). But thats the way the myth is. If ya dun likit, go write one yeself. Hmph
