Mnemonic


[sh-] Shrek is in [1] front of the [-a] auditorium, which has a "NO 沙 SAND ALLOWED" sign posted in front. Unfortunately, Shrek is covered with 沙 sand, left over from the mud he always has on him that has dried out. He shakes himself like a dog, and 沙 sand 氵 sprays in every direction. He then tries to enter, but the bouncer won't let him in, pointing at Shrek's forehead, which still has a 少 few grains of 沙 sand on it.
