Aha! today there was CO, slept like some dead pig until 11.15, left home round 11.30 just in time whew. reached school at 1230, saw miss hannah and a few other guys from 3rp at the concourse so dropped by to say hi, and yakked awhile. went for CO and had prac all the way, left halfway to pass dyane her VCDs. ended at 5.30, went to cut my hair, and my dear fringe is all gone >.< cause mummy says fringe is bad and it makes me look like someone who does drugs. so i now have very short fringe. SIGH. haha and tops that, i hurt my knee at home and now there are two parallel one inch wide lines spurting blood and nothing but blood. what a day uh! haha
"i'm back, i'm back!"
yay! i survived 4days and 3nights away from home, at a small island far far away from beloved singapore.
arrived in school at 7.30am on the morning of the 13th, assembled and took a long busride to punggol jetty. went up a huge boat thingy, and set off for Pulau Ubin! reached the Outward Bound Singapore campsite, where we got divided into 3 groups. my group was Kim San, named after some guy. group members were Shuhua, Jamie, Belinda, Sheng Xian, Hui May, Jacques, Weeming, Guoxiang, Anthony, Bryan, Zhenyang, Jason and me! and our instructor was Shukor! arrived at our pretty bunks, checked out the cool double beds, and divided the sections for girls and boys. had a briefing about different sorts of ropes, and different knots such as the figure 8 knot and so on. went on to start building a raft out of long heavy tubes, barrels and ropes. tied the ropes like crazy, hand ached too. the guys were very helpful in lifting the raft while we tied the knots, and also carrying heavy stuff about. managed to get our raft to float, and it was pretty fast! that was until the instructor made us jump into the water and manually paddle. so when we tried to get back on, the barrels popped out of the ropes, and we had to push it all the way back to shore. it was tiring, yet we had loads of fun :)
at night, the girls played bridge, and i was sitting there and trying to figure out what it was about, but still didnt get it. guys ate like half of my gummies >.< style="font-style: italic;">
last day! climbed a high element obstacle course called the inverse tower with shuhua, and it required us to help each other here and there. it was slippery on the logs, and we had to support each other to make it to the top! and we did :D belayed a few people, which is kinda tiring, yet fun! after that, went back to the bunk for the last time, and cleared everything, and packed our stuff. went to the souvenier shop and bought Tshirts! all at low prices hohoho. took some time to do an evaluation form with our instructor, taking last minute group photos etc.
boarded the Symphony (boat) and headed back to lovely Singapore! where jacques dad kindly gave me, anthony, guoxiang, weeming a ride to pasir ris :D and here i am, home sweet home :D
this camp was pretty independant, and the instructors did not really watch over us as much as the OAC instructors. gave us loads of learning opportunities! 4days passed in a breeze, hope you guys going for Course 2 will enjoy every memorable event that will take place!
D'best team ever, Kim San! <38:43 PM

God bless myself lawl. &i'm only done packing halfway! crapsticks. i needa get prickly heat powder, small bottles of soap/shampoo blahblahblah. 4days and 3 nights of mosquito bites and i cant find my mozzie repellant. ugh >.<
anyway, wish me luck =P =P
10:34 AM
hoho my pretty ass hurts. and i mean it.
try cycling 16km on a gigantic mountain bike with a seat that sticks up your ass. owch. was shaken awake by sister who dragged me along to bike with her. walked 2km to pasir ris park where we rented the bikes. then cycled around pasir ris park, which to my astonishment is very big, and very pretty. set off on the 2.5km cycle to tampines sun park or whatever. halfway almost died while going up the slope of overhead bridge. think was cause of no breakfast, so grabbed food at the petrol kiosk. felt better after that, and cycled all the way to bedok reservoir park, bloody 6km or so. took pictures blahblah, cycled back. 16km in less than 2 hours, and 4km of walking. ahhh, i'm beat and T-shirt tanned.
tmr's ms tay's wedding! CO people will be sharing some jewels from SooKee. mmm ^^
Falalala the world's a brighter place.
2:06 PM
parent teacher meeting sucked. although i feel that stuff she said was true.
about my f'ed up grooming, how my hair always covers those eyes, how my shirt is always halfway out, how i wear black shoelaces, how my skirt is above the knees and how my socks are always at the ankles. damn, i give the wrong impression to the teachers. and i'm called a
bimbo? an
ahlian?
i'm kissing goodbye to my freedom this hols. &next year i'll change. i told her i would, and i'm going to.
disappointment comes with a will to change myself. self-pity isn't enough(?).
anyway, went back to SHPS with jourdan (who made me wait again) and elroy, they wanted to get their W.O.W concert tickets. i just followed because i wanted to see my primary school. kinda miss those days? ohwell, the ticket manager wasnt in school, so we went to find mr soong who helped us book the tickets (kinda sorta). had a very long chat with him. discussed just about everything, from relationships to religion. which was very meaningful and enlightening. hmm i miss being in primary school.
and damn, i'm scared.
8:12 PM
okay, so my gigantic urge got the better of me, and now ima school truant.
nah just joking. main reason was because i overslept =.= and woke at like 6.50am. figured if i reached school it would be at like 7.45, so can't be bothered to get into double trouble with all that kinda thing.
sigh tmr's the last day (unofficially?) of school. i'll miss all you guys.
parting is such sweet sorrow, ain't it?11:52 AM
hello. ima self proclaimed glutton from now on.
hehe i ate like 3000calories today? fwahahahaha. had a bloody big bowl of bachormee during recess (which also splattered on my uniform), another bowl of noodles for recess, a tea egg, a banditto pocket, a bottle of justea, a cup of coke, mashed potato, huge chunks of minced pork, egg tofu, veg, and another huge chunk of rice. bleh and i'm still gonna stuff myself with full cream milk saturated with calories tonight. pre-obs weight gaining hopefully to form muscles :D
anyway, today had our Heritage Tour, was quite okay lah. sat on the ditzy bus to Fort Canning, went into some guardhouse with really heavy doors and a damned creepy stairway (AHEM shujun). walked to some excavated cemetery, andandand the Spice Garden! which was pretty nice on account of them having samples of the spice for us to smell blahblah. FCP is like next to ROM. next time when my sis ROM's i'll pull her there to take pictures with those beautiful architecture. mmm yummy.
lunch break at Funan IT Mall, yakked with Mdm Toh, she's pretty nice out of class after all. hehe. talked about studies (& she called me a bimbo
again) and other stuff about teachers, principals etc.
proceeded to walk around suboordinate courts, supreme courts, city hall. went into city hall and took a look at the biennale 2006 exhibits. had pretty chairs made out of cardboard, and a few of the court rooms were open for us to play about and we girls had a fun time on the judge seat. mmm! there were many art pieces on display too. ahhh. last chance to see it is on 12th of this month. quick!
went back to school and had a nice surprise over something. walked out and met shuhua, took 32 back with her (& fongzhi too) and yakked about OBS stuff etc.
and i have this BIG GIGANTIC URGE to pon school tmr. i'm sick of J___ N_'s lessons and her handing out of detention slips as if watering the plants. oh whatever.
surprises are so ecstatically nice (:8:26 PM
one day into extension week and i'm already hating it.
where's the mood baby? you think anything that is being taught in class during this period of time will fully go in 100%? nuh-uh i don't think so.
doesn't the school ever believe in
second chances?
what happens to ex-convicts when they're released from jail? they get a second chance to become a better person, and learn from their past mistakes. so why isn't it the same with our school?
anyway, next year our class is so gonna
die. lets talk about having 3 teachers from the discipline committee teaching our class. mr soon for social studies, mr chua chor loon for geography, miss lam for biology. crapsticks. it's like predicting your own death.
back to messing with my EMath project.
9:35 PM
hello world.
these few days have been nothing but being crammed full of activities.
such as cchms open house 2006, and last minute ELearning marathons.
dang~ ELearning is stupid. why can't the teachers get that into their head. it ain't effective to a large extent in helping the students learn by chucking them a ppt and making them complete stupid worksheets. just maybe one itsy weeny bit.
thinking back, this year passed in a flash. it's already november. last year's november, we were still happily playing MapleStory and training on monsters. sigh. can't say MapleStory is an interesting game, but i do miss those times. and shit, next year ima sec 4.
sigh, are my hols supposed to be dedicated to studying? i think so.
12:42 PM
Aha just got back from class chalet in the afternoon. hehe t'was situated at some ulu place in changi next to the creepy Old Changi Hospital. ms mong helped us to book & she arrived in a red car driven by her brother/boyfriend(?).
mum & me marinated like 5kg of teriyaki chicken wings the night before. was supposed to meet the girls earlier to buy stuff for bbq but overslept >.< ended up tugging the food all the way to tampines and causing my arms to almost break. checked in and prepped for the bbq. it was kinda fun, fire got started quite soon thanks to the pro guides and others hahaa. started the bbq and ate and ate and ate. loads of people arrived (around 30?) and even a gatecrasher came (hohoho).
mum & dad came to check out place to see if it was safe for me to stay, and miraculously allowed me to! first time uh! fwahahahaha. they left and we continued frying the food. there was crabstick, taiwan sausages, cheese stuffed sausages, wings, prawn, sotong, different kinds of balls (and i mean prawn, fish, sotong balls you dirty minded fools) andandand loads others lah, heh. and miss shujun bbq and bbq and bbq the whole evening away hoho~!
then after, we opened up the bacardi fwahahahha. tipsy baby! hahahh. guys went to play pool and spammed dota at Gamers Inc. and only went back like at 8am and KO-ed hahhahah.
at like 1pm most of them left cos of resilience camp, and cca, so i stayed in with a few others and sleepzzz. woke up around 5? there was leftover chicky wings so i decided to cook em up. and broiled/boiled/fried them in some wok that was provided. added some spicy thai chilli and it turned out DAMNED DELICIOUS fwahhahahha. not a wing was left heehee. watched Goong, headed out to changi village with meng, eddy, aaron and ben low. ate teppanyaki mushrooms. went back and fried instant noodles with oyster sauce and spicy thai chilli (again). aaron and eddy finished like 5 packets of those by playing cai1 quan2 -.-
started a water fight at 1am and dragged everyone out of the bungalow and drenched them in cold water hahahaa. then the ah bengs living opposite were like kp-ing and complaining that water was precious etcetc. but we heck-ed them and continued playing. then edwin took shampoo out and we were like shampooing our hair in the middle of the grass patch HA HA.
rest of em played dai-di till 5am, and i was half asleep by then on the sofa because it was too cold on the bed. shivers. and the blanket was holey (holy?). KO-ed soon after the lights went off. woke at around 12, girls started packing up. helped a little then went to slack thereafter. girls decided to go rollerblading, but it was gonna rain. so packed my bags and left with sean and benlow. went home sweeeet home and slept again.
