Good evening, for today's documentary, we shall we dive into the mysterious origins of one crazy fifteen year old male teenager's habit he is subjecting many people around him to, some may be familar with it, some respond by doing it too, others flee, some smile, some scoff. What habit is this?
HAND SNAPPING. Yes Joel, Hand Snapping ^^
"What is hand snapping? Not talking about finger snapping, are you?"
Uh-uh. Hand snapping is a entirely different thing. It was derived somewhere in warm May, I do not remember the exact date, but it was during a Student Leader Investiture '08 practice. Everyone was playing the game where you clasp one another's hand, and they 'Scissors-Paper-Stone!', winner slaps the other's hand hard. I played as well, and I withstood 6 "Ngo Yu Sheng Hits" before my skin torn and I give in D:
We were playing and playing then suddenly when I gave in to Jason, I snapped my fingers while holding his hand o.o Odd. Then some weird conversation exchange, I snapped Jason's hand and ask the oddest of questions:
"Are you feeling better?"
AHHHH. It just stuck onto me ever since then. Then Joel came out and I think he played for awhile, and I snapped his hand, he was like "EH?" then he tried it too. OH NO WE'VE BEEN HOOKED XD
Then I lost a match again to formidable Yu Sheng. Then I was like "AGH MEDIC MEDIC" and Jason came, grabbed my hand, and snapped it.
"Are you feeling better yet?"
"Much. XD"
Yes, it is proven: Snapping hands CAN cure people. It's a form of...mental "first aid" XD Because it's usually accompanied by crazy laughter.
But Jason became adverse of it ever since O.o Joel and I do it all the time as a form of greeting whenever we pass by each other XD Yes it does heal! You can't disprove it until you try it yourself :D
Currently, Joel and I can snap 140 times (I snap once, he snaps again - thats two snaps) in one minute. We're gonna bring that up to 200/ per min! That's 100 for each of us to cover in 60 sec, oh yea it's possible. We have the video for 140, we can do 200 ^^
It's possible to snap your own hand as well.
Joel? *snap*
Oh, during today's walk, I found a quiet little haven of my own: a sand pit, three swings, a view of a field of trees and green grass, with winds from the east =)
