Belly-Lally
Today, your captain is not going to fly you anywhere. Instead, I'm going to tell a story I heard yesterday.
Belly-Lally (pronounced be-li la-li) is a fourth year medical student. Many people used to wonder why is she called Belly-Lally, but that is because they do not know that Belly-Lally is a very famous belly-dancer.
She is a BELLY Dancer, not a BALLET dancer, as many people mistaken BELLY dancing to BALLET dancing.
She is based in Saudi Arabia, and she has fans from all over the world that would come to Arabia just to see her perform. She has performed for Sheikhs and Sultans, Kings and Emperors, and she is paid in GOLD BARS. Not Oil, not myrrh, not Arabian currency, not US currency, not Sterling Pound, but in GOLD BARS. The Oil, the myrrh, the Currencies, they are but gifts for these excellent belly-dancer.
She has a big palace with swimming pools, fountains and huge gardens. And this Palace, Belly-Lally's Pally is situated in a place that not many knew about. There is a room filled to the brink with GOLD BARS, so much that it could easily rival Fort Knox and the Swiss Bank added together. And in the palace's Royal Theatre is where Belly-Lally performs for the powerful people of the world. Royalties from all over the World meet here to see her perform. Scantily-clad, Belly-Lally seduced and charmed these men of Power. It has been said that Belly-Lally holds the power of the world in her hands and her dancing, that it was her dancing that decides the fate of this world.
Rumour has that, her biggest fans are people like Osama bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, Yassir Arafat, Ariel Sharon, Mahathir Mohammad and the recently deceased Hamas Leader. George Bush Junior, Tony Blair and Colin Powell has been said to frequent Belly-Lally's Pally. It has also been rumoured that the cause of the Iraq War was actually because Belly-Lally had belly-danced on Saddam Hussein's lap instead of George, so out of jealously, Georgie-Boy had attacked Iraq to lay claims on this fabulous belly-dancer.
But, as far as rumours go... who knows?
But I digress.
At the age of 21, Belly-Lally was forced by her parents to come down to Malaysia to take up the course of Medicine. Don't ask me why, but parents can be crazy sometimes, so Belly-Lally came to Malaysia to start her medical course. She disappeared for two months, two freaking months, and wars started exploding right and left. Her fans were in an uproar, the press was going crazy finding for Belly-Lally. Everyone insisted that she returned to continue her career of belly-dancing, for only then peace would prevail.
So pressured by her peers, her fans and the entire world population, Belly-Lally now returns to Saudi Arabia every weekend to perform for her fans. She is now still famous, her number of fans are still growing.
Belly-Lally will one day pass on,
But her legend will still carry on.
To Belly-Lally.
I got this story yesterday from Belly-Lally's public relationship officer, and confirmation when Belly-Lally herself made a presence in front of me and my mates. I got to speak with the magnificent Belly-Lally, and whoa... it is just so cool.
And now, it's back to lectures.
You have to understand, TJ.
Girls are supposed to prevent boys from having fun.
It's just their nature.
