our favourite friend

if you browse through today's straights times, there's a special fashion piece that has... guess who? Timothy John on it! wow wee! i'm so excited

model boy in his full glory. all you girls out there should start looking him up. What more can you ask for? rich, smart, charismatic, goodlooking(debatable), national waterpolo player etcetc with a whole long list enough to make into a roll of toilet paper.

he tells serene huang from straights times about his life growing up, about his passion for waterpolo and all his achievements. Then moves on to tell the world he's the president of ambassadors in SMU and that he wants to give back to his alma mata blah blah blah. then he starts telling us about his BIG DECISION on whether to forego his internship somewhere or go overseas to train for SEA games or something, where he uses the term "cost benefit analysis". hmm way to go Tim John you'd make all your professors proud. too bad you didn't mention which prof taught you that in the interview, it'd really score some brownie points.

anyway after the paper listed all his achievements, it really occurred to me that they were missing the most important achievement in the whole of Timothy John's life.

That he won the prestigious BOOKER PRIZE*.


*The Man Booker Prize for Fiction, also known as the Booker Prize, is one of the world's most prestigious literary prizes, awarded each year for the best original full-length novel written.
