I.C. I See.

.
While checking a particular exam candidate's IC during invigilation some time back, I came across this word on the reverse side.
.
Annamite.
.
It was her race.
.
Annamite?
.
At the back of my mind, I began to visualise a colony of people living somewhere in a secluded part of Bukit Timah Nature Reserve whose daily rituals include making molotov cocktails, DDTs and other explosives as a way of life.
.
Or either that, a group of humans that physically looked like ants and liked to eat trees and other woody alternatives for supper.
.
I could have sworn it sounded like that gross stuff Mum gave to us when we were young. Wait, that's Marmite.
.
Annamite. Ah.
.
The Mon-Khmer language spoken in Vietnam.
.
Wikipedia also says that a certain type of rabbit called the Annamite Rabbit inhabits the Laos-Vietnam border. The rabbits are striped, red and very, very rare.

ICs are proving to be very valuable source of enlightenment for the dull regimentation of invigilation.
