Hello.

Level closure. Today was fun, kind of emotional. But I went into hysteria, and I'm glad I did! So let's see, our group for Art won bronze, like WOAH. I thought they were just going to display it, but haha, cool. My first official art prize. And then it was spring cleaning, we (meaning my tablemates and I) cleaned all the tables. But we finished amazingly fast. And then we went to set up Munning's drums. We climbed the stairs okay! And the stuff was really heavy. Recently I've been getting my sufficient hand pt in unique ways. Mainly carrying back-breaking, muscle-stretching and skin-pulling stuff. Okay it isn't that heavy, because I managed. Anyway, we took really long to set up. Because Munning only had one functioning hand, and she was the only one who knew how to set it up. So we did most of the manual work while Munning attempted instruct us. Then it screwed up, because for some strange reason the amplifier was really soft. So we had to shift everything around, trying other power sockets, speakers etc. We spent a lot of time racking our brains for more ways to try and unscrew the whole thing. But I enjoyed myself a lot. At least I got to spend my quality time with my dear tablemates.

During break Grace had to run and go sell stuff. I had to go meet a teacher for the emcee thing, and Munning went to look for a Multi-plug. I spent the whole of break running around looking for people. After that it was class closure. Hulaoshi talked to us. I'm starting to think that all FTs get really emotional with their classes. At 11 we proceeded to the music room. We locked Mr. Chia and Hulaoshi out, and rehearsed a bit. Well not really, the class was practicing and talking amongst themselves and Grace and a group of us were at the piano. It was kind of funny, because Grace was trying to figure out the chords for the chinese song, and then Weimin and Huizhen were helping and giving opinions, and then they all had different opinions so they turned to me. Lol. I was like, I don't think the rest will actually see the difference. Haha.

The performance was really good. Even though we never rehearsed the whole thing once together. Cool right? And Mr. Chia and Hulaoshi were really touched. They started getting really emotional. And they made us emotional. I was on the verge of tears. So I just looked down. Good thing I couldn't see clearly, I'm sure I would have cried if I could see their faces clearly, all i heard was their voice, and I could clearly hear emotion and 'tears'. Mr. Chia makes us emotional everytime he talks to us. Would you call that his gift? :D I'm glad I didn't cry, I didn't want to start it, and I know it would make me cry more, and I didn't want to spoil this special day.

Next it was level closure. It turned out to be informal! And everything we planned was formal! So we scraped the entire script and changed speakers. It was so rush! And then our montage screwed. SO Jan and I took up montage time to talk. I think the others were sian-ed dead, but I'm glad 207 enjoyed it, it was all for them anyway. Jan and I were super nervous! I told i had stage fright. And we improvised a lot, and forgot a lot of stuff too. Jan rocks at improvising I promise. Some of the classes had really really nice montages. But I have to say that 201 had the best. It was really artistic and cool. And it gave me a really good idea :D

After that we were sort of officially dismissed. But we all stuck around here and there. We watched our class montage and talked and retarded here and there. I was starting to move towards hysteria. Meaning, I started being really really retarded. Amanda Alyssa and I (Triple A) went to the broadcasting studio for our recording. That was when I really entered hysteria. I started being really retarded. You can ask them. I did taiji. I played speed throw catch with Amanda, and I did tennis taiji. Seriously. Both slow-mo and fast-mo. Turns out we were at the wrong place. There's an actual recording studio we never knew existed!

It is extremely cool! Mr Ng taught me how to use it. I promise I really really felt like an actual director. We recorded our monologues and did sound effects and everything. We had some moments of retardedness. We recorded songs! And played with the sound to try out the effects. It all turned out really funny. And I felt so professional. Amanda has this picture of me editing! I looked like a real director! Cool. And I love it. And now I'm officially their director plus agent. And I must say I love my job.

After that Elena Manda and I went for grad night duty. Manda and I did ushering at the stairs. It was kind of funny, we had like a sign language for solemn face when we started laughing too much, and one for smile which is the look we had to put on as ushers. It was really cool. I was entertaining Amanda with my hysteria. I felt like a real real usher. Like you know, those in black suits, sunglasses and an earpiece! The parents are so funny, its like they walk all the way to where we are and they have no idea where to go!

Then our posts got 'stolen' and we started drifting. There was no place for us. So first i went to the gym to greet Wulaoshi and tell her I was helping out for grad night and got my letter and bug's from Amanda. We attempted reading, but then gave up after a while, we were kind of lazy to try deciphering her handwriting. We drifted everywhere for a long time, looking for somewhere we could help out at. At one time we admired the art works! Haha, I played piano a bit and got scared that someone would come looking for us and scold us. Then we had dinner. And drifted more.

Finally we ended up lying down at the top of the field steps. We admired the sky and view and just talked. We watched the sky turn from light blue to black! And we watched the clouds move from right to left. We took some really cool photos. And we just talked and sang. When ti got darker we started talking. We talked about everything. Friends, family, I told Amanda my 'secrets'. The friends part is our usual topic. I love making impressions of Grace Munning and everyone else. I think I've told the same things so many times that now Amanda can finish my sentences. Of course, I still haven't ran out of impressions and things to say about them :D I think I'm going to have to start keeping a sharper eye on her, she knows too much. Haha. It was nice sharing myself with her. Its hard to talk about certain stuff. And Amanda always seems to be the one I share it with. I guess she's the only person I ever get alone time with. And she's a pretty good listener and a really funny bimbo. Its like the old days. So thank you Amanda! It was nice being somewhat 'girly' with you. Girls share everything don't they? Haha. But don;t you ever there to ask me that truth or dare question. I'll kill you if you-know-who is there. I'll most probably end up hiding in my toilet bowl for a few weeks if she knows.

When the ceremony ended we went back to the canteen. Amanda had some leftovers and we drank tea! Then we found Mr. Chia and chatted with him. It's fun, I can be myself completely with him. Like when I'm with my friends. It was really funny. I can't really describe it. We talked to him all the way to 10! Even though we got interrupted here and there, after we went to the pe dept we talked for really long. He asked a lot of questions about us and the class. We told him about level closure cause he missed it.

So overall, I'd say today was one of the most memorable days of my entire life. I think I've had quite a number of different emotions. And I'm glad that I spent it laughing and being really happy. I guess when I'm with my friends its hard not to smile. But the hugs made me a little sad. Now that I'm away from them, the fact that today is the last official school day and sort of us being a class, I'm feeling really really sad. I can't bear to leave them. Our class was just so special. Everyone unique in their own way. And I can't believe it's really over.

Let's see. The whole of last week, felt pretty long.

Tuesday&Wednesday

We got back our results. It was torturous. My results are soso. I managed to achieve most of my goals. But I just feel really really terrible about my Science results. Don't 'Abigail' me or something. Because you won't exactly understand. First of all, Science is supposed to be my second best. I mean it still is, but seriously, everything was so disappointing. I felt like killing myself, seriously. Anyway, it was kind of boring, because we didn't really have to do corrections. And anyway it was hard too, because some teachers went pretty fast, and some of the corrections were really long so I didn't bother.

Thursday

We had the volleyball inter-class comp. It was extremely fun! :D Okay we didn't really really play. Because our team had some really really good servers. It was kind of retarded. We won points from all those serves. Lol. We did play a little here and there, but yeah. We didn't get to play for 3rd because there wasn't enough time. Which was really sad. Our class did really well, we won sth in all divisions. For cup we were 4th, for Plate we were 1st and for Bowl we were 2nd.


Okay I accidentally forgot to finish this post and now I can't rmb anything D: haha.

Don’t lie to me, you suck at lying.

Think happy think happy think happy. Oh wait, I think I forgot something. Oh yeah, it doesn't work it doesn't work it doesn't work!

Hannah and Weimin came over today for drama. Sort of at least.

My dad went to the KAP drive through and we got a double cheese burger meal upsized+ a 9pcs Mcnuggets. It was our solution to all our 'cravings', so called. I wanted nuggets and a meal, Hannah wanted fries and a drink, and Weimin wanted a double cheese burger. So we shared everything. And while we ate we watched 'SHE'S THE MAN'! It was extremely funny. It might be my gourth time watching it, but still I never get sick of the funny parts! I love the show!

Even Weimin said it was her favourite chick flick! And finally someone agrees that the guys were pretty cute. Or rather just Channing and Robert Hoffman. Haha :D I find guys cute really easily I guess, cause I usually fall in love with their character or sth. Then I'll think they're cute. But I never, in my entire life, felt that anyone I've seen was 'hot'. Seriously. I guess the physical side doesn't attract me as much. I mean of course it does affect everyone a bit. But i'm more drawn to their characters.

I LOVE MR. DARCY! haha. I don't why. I just really like Pride and Prejudice. I watched it on saturday. And I am so glad I bought the Dvd. It was on sale, haha. I was so irritated with Elizabeth. It was so funny. Throughout the show I was like "Dang will you get over it already?" and I was hoping she'd just decide to go find him and tell him she loved him. They're both so stubborn. I was being so impatient for the part where they finally got together. And that part lasted so short! Well there was an alternate ending which was kind of funny and retarded. Haha. I get really engrossed I guess. I knew they were going to fall in love cause I read the cover, but the show somehow twisted everything and it seemed like they'd never get together. Anyway, its a super super nice movie. To me at least. And I'm going to watch it again, when I find time :D Did I mention I spent like don't know how long replaying all my favourite parts. HAHA!

So anyway, after the movie they read through the drama script I did. And Hannah made some minor changes. And then they left. I touched up on the script, sent it to everyone, and I even completed the prompt script. Well at least i did the most that can be done. Now I just need details like the songs Weimin chose. I already wrote in everything I know. And of course I'm going to get some people to help me decide on lights and everything. I feel so busy. But I kind of like it. it isn't always nice to be free.

Training is inching closer. I'm not sure what to feel. Scared? Excited? I was looking forward to it. Until everyone influenced me with their feelings. Everyone seems to be dreading training. Why? I thought when we left it we all agreed we loved it. And then now? But I have to admit I am scared. We're going to start death-training. Because they have to start preparing us for comps. Despite whether we're going next year or not. They're only picking comps people in Dec for hell-training :D I really really love gym, and I really really want it. I guess it's the only thing driving me to live through all this. I just really hope that I haven't lost too much. We did work hard to reach the point we were at. It'd be sad if we had to go through all that again.

Other than training to worry about. I still have the Dance cip. Oh gosh we only have like 3 weeks to choreograph an entire dance? And we hardly have time to meet up since we're all so busy! And other than that there's still drama. And to add on, we need to choreograph a longer routine for Layla's dance scenes. Blehh. But I will not take it out. It's one of the beauties of our play.

Come on people. We'll live through this. We've lived through so much already haven't we?

Oh gosh, I have terrible terrible terrible results.

I promise my marks can't get any lower. I feel super demoralized now. Because all my classmates are getting smarter and I'm the only one who's getting dumber. Its like they're all draining my brains D: And you know when I say this, they reply with complete silence. It just goes to show how true it is. Since they can't find one loop hole to make me feel better.

Seriously, I was more or less dead today. Well at least on the inside. I did try, to be hyper and everything. You know smile so I'll feel happier. That advice sucks because it doesn't work anymore. Its just procrastination. The feeling's going to come down on you harder if you try so hard to avoid it. It's as if it's this super impatient thing that will get pissed off if you avoid it.

Oh gosh, I really screwed my eoys. And I'm going to screw the rest tomorrow. I think I've given up hoping that I might actually do well. Well first of all, there's the feeling. And yeah that's all. I'm pretty accurate with it you know. I just spent hours in that same spot screaming inside "Gosh how could you screw this?! I can't believe you screwed it!" or simpler, just "Screw! Screw! Screw!"

Please don't say I'll do well. Don't say I won't fail. It makes me feel worse. I hate it when people have such expectations from me. Honestly I wouldn't say that I'm someone who often fulfills these 'expectations'. You might not mean it that way but its the same. And I hate the feeling of disappointing people. But I guess the person I let down and disappointed the most was myself. Why did I have to be so stupid? Stupid stupid stupid me.

Quiet, alone time with yourself can be calming, soothing. But sometimes it seriously sucks. There's so much free space to think. All your feelings come crashing down on you. And I hate it when I think too much. Its just that when I think more, I convince myself more, I seem to make more sense, and I realise that, gosh I really really suck. Dang it.

Hello hello hello.

I'll just start with yesterday. Okay, church was okay. I sat through a seminar that was supposedly meant to be compulsory for everyone. Well it turned out that I was the only teen there, so yeah. Anyway, I played with Hannah for the most part, so yeah. She is so adorable. She kept like taking stuff and giving it to me and then taking sth else from me. And she couldn't decide which she wanted more so she kept switching. She gave this seriously cute expression when I received a message and my phone vibrated in her hand and lighted up. It's hard to describe so I won't. Oh yeah, Natalie brought a leopard. And she was telling me about it I think, but I didn't really get what she said until I went like, "What's that Natalie?" and she was like "Leopard!". She is super adorable. (She's the toddler I talked about who says simidaiji, however you spell it.) The way she pronounces her words are just so cute, like she accents at weird parts and you know.

So after that I went to Elena's house straight. I thought I was late but I was still the first to arrive. We spent like 2 hours? Flipping through random videos, until Jiayi came. Then we started being a little more serious. After a long time, we finally managed to come up with a list of songs. And then we voted for the songs we wanted. So now it's more or less decided. But we still have long way to go, like choreographing the entire dance? Dang. And ccas are starting.

I went straight to my grandma's house. And then we had to rush a bit, because Cherie and Claudia were coming over and I hadn't bath and all. So anyway, we went to Kap first, I went to borrow some movies. I took a really long time to decide. Oh and there was this super good offer for tv series. And they had all 10 seasons of friends there! So tempting. Unfortunately, my parents so aren't going to let me buy. So I changed my mind, I'm going to try and get people to help me buy, or convince my parents to get for Christmas. Whichever. Oh gosh, I was so inching to buy it. I wanted to rent too, but i knew my parents would get mad and all so I didn't bother. But guess what? My brother got to borrow OC! That is so way more scandalous! Oh okay, maybe its cause my parents never heard of it! D: Anyway, then I went to cold storage to get ice cream and chips. And then we rushed home. And guess what they weren't even close.

I called Cherie and she was still on the way. I thought she was reaching because I thought I heard her say she passed sch like 5-10 min ago, which meant she was probably like one stop away. But later on she called to say she just passed Kap. Or it could be that there was a jam. I don't know. So I was like sitting downstairs waiting for her. Because my brother didn't allow to bath because she said she was reaching and he didn't want to have to open the door for her. I called Claudia and she was still at home!

Anyway, when Cherie reached and quickly went to bath. When I was about done I could hear Claudia downstairs, trust me she speaks really loudly. She is retarded. They chose Sydney White in the end. Oh gosh it is a super retarded show. According to Claudia its super exaggerated. And the bimbos are seriously, the most bimbotic ones I have ever seen. They have pledges and everything. And then Claudia was being super retarded through out the movie. She kept making her own jokes and laughing at them! Overall i thought the movie was really nice anyway. Entertaining. Claudia and Cherie are so mean, they kept saying that Amanda Bynes was fat. (She's the female lead.) Oh but its so unfair that she also gets cute male leads. The male lead was pretty cute. And then there was Channing in She's the man, and Robert Hoffman, and then the guy in what a girl wants was pretty okay too.

Then after the movie they went to play on my piano. Cherie's grade 8! How irritating. And she's really good. So is Claudia, she's like Weimin. Sort of. She played a song she composed, it was really short cause she's not done but it was really nice. And Cherie is super free okay, when she gets bored of her pieces she goes and learn her sisters pieces. And she can play and everything. Oh she also knows quite a few 'pop songs'. So retarded. She can play A hundred years and Better in time. After that we went to use the com. And ended up watching friends.

We ate ice cream and watched like 4 episodes of Friends. I didn't rent it too because I thought Cherie thought it was too scandalous. But apparently its Tessa and Banana. And she likes it too! Claudia was so retarded, she kept telling us the story of certain parts. Oh but it was really funny and fun. I wanted to show them parts of TOW the Hypnosis Tape, but we ended up watching the entire episode. After that we went up to sleep. it was like 1.00am. But then we started talking. And we just talked for a really long time. Until Claudia was tired then we went to sleep. Cherie was so excited she couldn't sleep. Apparently its her first.

This morning Cherie woke up really early. My alarm went off at 8.00, but Claudia and I just stayed on in bed. And then Cherie kept trying to wake us up. She just kept going "Wake up wake up!" And then she pretended to be my dad coming to wake us up, and she tried stealing Claudia's blanket and tickling her. But anyway, we got out of bed at about 8.45am. my dad cooked pancakes. Then we just played piano again and walked around and then we prepared food for ECP. We thought it'd be nice and also we wouldn't have to eat too much Macs or anything.

When we reached it was raining. It was drizzling and then it got super heavy. So we played cards and Macs, then we got chased out! -.- So we went to one of the shelters and played until like 12+. Then we ate the food we brought while still playing. And when we finished it stopped raining. It was really fun nonetheless. We played Bridge and Daiti. It was really really funny and fun. Cherie and Jo kept getting confused with how to arrange their cards because we played Bridge and Daiti on alternate.

Then we went cycling. It was really nice. Cycling is calming. And there were very little people. We stopped at the sand castle place again. Claudia was being super destructive. She when to stand near a sandcastle and the whole thing just gave way! Then when we went to take with the Aladdin sand castle, she broke the back of the lid of the lamp. She was pretending to take off the lid, apparently she did do it literally. We took this really retarded photo. I pretended to be Sir Stanford Raffles and stood in that same position of his statue. Then Jo pretended to be the Statue of Liberty. And Claudia decided to be a model tourist! Haha. Oh Cherie and I and Jo took with this sand dolphin! We didn't let Claudia near it just in case she destroyed it. Then we started drawing stuff on the sand. Claudia and Cherie drew pigs and they were like "Drawing a portrait of yourself is it!" Haha. I drew a turtle and a jellyfish. Haha. And Jo drew a octopus which looked like a paw print upside down. Then we made a birthday cake out of sand and celebrated all our birthdays. We didn't want them to just celebrate ours, so we just celebrated Jo's and Claudia's even though it was quite long ago. After cutting the cake we destroyed it. I was like "Okay now we destroy it." And then Cherie was like " No need, just get Claudia to stand near it! " Haha.

After that we just cycled for a really long time. like 2 and a half hours. Well I sort of crashed into Cherie. Because well I was with Claudia and I thought we were turning but she went straight so I had to make a quick turn so i wouldn't crash into Claudia and then Cherie crashed into me because she didn't know how to brake, I didn't see her coming. So we crashed and fell. Cherie was worst then me, I got scrapes and bled a little. But Cherie got scrapes and all her scrapes had a little blood. Because we fell in her direction. Some guys saw us crash and just went pass us. And after we were sort of done cleaning our scrapes they came back and were like "Do y'all need help?" And they toppled Claudia's bike. Haha. I guess they were really nice, but kind of late. Haha. Then Jo's bike's gear had problems. Then Claudia and I had to fix it. Then our hands got really dirty cause the gear was stuck in a really odd way so we had to really use our hands. Then fortunately there was a toilet nearby so we went to wash up. Then we just continued to cycle again. We went at an ultra slow pace I tell you. Because Cherie kept braking and there was always one of us stopping to do sth. But anyway we cycled all the way to the end. And I sang and cycled. It was soothing. Oh yeah also, Claudia and Jo were trying to avoid Cherie, because they were afraid she'd crash, so we went slower. And then they were talking about training and all and teasing each other. The usual. But on the way back I chatted with Jo. It was really nice, because there was hardly anyone, so we didn't really have to watch out for anyone. And then we were going at a very leisure pace. Then we lost Cherie and Claudia. According to Claudia Cherie kept braking, and then she can't talk and cycle as well. Haha.

When we got back we were like 20 mins early, but we just returned our bikes because we wanted to go get drinks and stuff. So after returning the bikes we went to Macs so Claudia could get her ice cream, and then we went to seven eleven and Cherie Jo and I got slurpees, and I got a mash potato too. Then we went to eat at one of the benches and just talked. We were talking about random stuff and then suddenly Mian Jun came up in our chats and I talked about Peer Mediation. And then Cherie and Claudia wanted to try it out. It was super funny. We didn't really have a full one. But Cherie and Claudia were acting super bimbo and everything. And they were like "I'm prettier, no I'm prettier. No I'M the prettiest." Super retarded. Then they kept doing it. Like pretending to be disputants and mediators. After we were done with our food we started playing again. But we only played like 4 games and then we waited for my dad to come.

So that was it. My dad dropped them off at Parkway Parade, and when I came home I was so tired i just went flop on the mattress and slept. Until 7+, then i got up to bath because I was feeling sticky and disgusting.

Now i have to finish the last of the drama script. Can't believe we're getting back our results tmr. I have a bad feeling that we're going to get chinese back tmr. Because for everyone i asked all their guessed were Chinese. But somehow I was just so sure that it was Wednesday. Oh well. I hope I'll do well enough to stay in Nanyang. I'm not done here yet.

Hoho. I think the previous post is possibly the longest post I have ever written. To think that this was the shortest camp I ever attended :D So I'm just going to continue but try to keep everything as brief as possible.

Day 2. Friday

We were debriefed and then we headed to the quadrangle for 'linear physical training'. Basically we just played some lame games that required some running and moving around. Then we had breakfast. After that it was "So you think you are right" it was some debate on who should be blamed and who should compensate the most on a car accident scenario they gave us. It was pretty okay, I didn't do much, and anyway, the argument was between the paramedics, Jane, and the traffic police. The rest hardly blamed anyone else, so we had nothing much to defend and all.

After that we took group pictures. All the groups formed the letter of their group using themselves and XiaoEn took from above. That part didn't take very long. Then we moved to the quadrangle to take a full group picture with all the PSLs and also with the teachers. This took a while. After that we went to have lunch. We all ate quickly so we could go up and pack our bags. but I realised I was pretty much packed already, so I just took out my dry clothes and all and changed into my dark clothes for the water games.

Then we had a long long discussion on improvements for the sec 1 orientation, for next year. First we discussed about the structure and all as an overall, then we did another long session on PSS. This whole discussion took a seriously long time. There were lots of good suggestions from the PSLs, and I hope they'll try to see if it can work. It was pretty a lot of changes suggested, so I don't think they'll all happen so quickly. Actually i think XiaoEn's idea of the exco getting the help of the rest of the PSLs was a pretty good idea. That way the exco won't be so stressed and the other PSLs get a try at organising stuff.

After that it was finally time for the water games. Our first station was not exactly very wet.we divided ourselves into half and held a bucket up with our feet. And then the facils slowly added water to our bucket. It was extremely easy and nobody's bucket toppled. The facils were like "it's suppose to topple, why isn't it toppling?" So they got us to lift it up as high as we could and then put it back down. Again it didn't topple at all. We were only a little wet because Evelyn purposely spilled water on us when she was filling up our bucket.

The next station was super fun. They connected 3 benches and put soap water on it. Then two people from the two groups had to slide across the benches as quickly as possible and meet each other halfway and then we had to play scissors paper stone and try to get across all 3 benches. It was extremely fun, and I'm glad I never got over. Because I got to replay it so many times! It was really retarded. And our butts got all soapy!

The next station was the one that got us all wet! Half of us were blindfolded. I was one of them. And then we partnered up and our partners directed us to pick up sheets of plastics, it was amazingly easy to recognise Livia's voice, even with Nainai shouting away at me. I managed to pick up loads of plastics thanks to Livia! Then they made us use the plastics to protect ourselves as they poured water on us. Of course if that plastic you couldn't protect yourself at all! Plus I was blindfolded! But it was still extremely fun. Rachael didn't play so after that we all when to hug her. I went to hug Nainai too!

This next station was the craziest. We had to use soap and water to style someone's hair into a certain hairstyle the facils gave us. I went and volunteered, though it was before they really told us what to do. And we got the astro boy hairstyle! It was so retarded. And my hair got shampoo-ed like mad with sunsilk! And it was really really funny and retarded. The other group got Marge, from the Simpsons. After that I got a full shower. Because when they poured water over my hair to get the soap off, they also poured on my shirt. And ended up pouring it down my entire body! After that i had this really really strong smell of sunsilk in my hair!

So after that we all got changed, and had tea, which was a box of beehoon. After that we had spring cleaning, my group cleaned up the canteen. We were pretty lucky, because the original arrangements was that we were supposed to clean the toilet, haha.

After that it was time to break camp and all. So they announced the results of the night trail and debate. And also a new demerit point system. Everyone was so scared they all kept asking questions on it. It is seriously extremely extremely strict. Lastly it was the prize presentation. Every group got sth, because it turned out all the funny names were from their facils for the groups. Guess what Evelyn gave our group? The Most Marathon-loving group! Lol. Because of our amazing race. Haha. She was so impressed by our brisk walking apparently.

So that was it, we took some group photos, I went to give hugs to NaiNai and Evelyn before I left. I fell asleep when i went home, and decided to cancel piano, or rather shift it to some other day. Took a shower blogged a bit and went to bed.

Phew, now I'm finally done. Haha, and off for lunch.

Hello, before blogging about way past stuff. I'll blog about sth much more recent. Since it's still fresh and all. And that sth would the PSL Camp I just came back from. Oh gosh, I know it was sort of impromptu, but still it was really fun, though really really short. And I guess it was really worth missing our free marking days for this.

Day 1. Thursday

Reached at about 7.40 and waited for Rania until I got my shirt, and then reported to the conference room together. After we the debrief and all we set off for our first activity- The Amazing Race. It was supposed to be around Singapore, but the teachers were kind of worried, this is in fact the first time they had an Amazing Race outside of school (Wow). Our group was kind of lucky, our first clue was extremely easy- the Esplanade. So like we immediately rushed to the bus stop, like even before half of us got to see the clue, lol. And when we reached the bus stop, our bus just arrived. The ride was pretty long actually, the people on the bus must have been so freaked to see a bunch of green girls squeezed up on a bus on a school day. Anyway, we stopped at Orchard MRT and trained to City Hall.

The whole thing was crazy walking. And it was all in that area. So we were constantly going all the way back to the MRT station and to another place. In total we went to the Esplanade, Raffles City, and different parts of Suntec City, and also attempted another station near S'pore river. But it was too far away so in the end we just headed home. The stations were pretty fun. For the Esplanade one, we performed a fairytale and it was video-ed, we chose snow white cause it had the most characters. I was the military dwarf, completely made up. Extremely retarded. Then there was the station where we had to find where certain pictures were taken and take a different pose at each one. That was really funny and really fun. We came up with the most retarded poses. There was a station at the fountain of wealth. We walked around the fountain with one hand in the water and made 3 rounds wishing. Lol. Then we had lunch. And we made a video saying "WE LOVE SINGAPORE" with some Indian tourists. We ended up taking like more than 10 vids with them saying "WE LOVE INDIA" lol. Because they requested and we kept having to take it cause more and more people wanted it. So we had like 3 0r 4 rounds and each time there were around 3 cameras. We spent like more than 10 mins on that I think. But at least they were friendly enough to agree. There was also a station where we just fed fish fish food, and one where we bought subway snacks. On our way back, we got slurpees. And we were again super lucky, because when we got on the MRT it was empty, and then we got on the bus a few stops earlier than two other groups, so we sat while those two groups stood all the way. And it was a really long bus ride.

We were all extremely tired after that. We had free time for about an hour, and then it was time for workshops. For us Sec 2s and 3s, we didn't have much to do, so we rented Army Days from the library to watch. It is such a retarded show, but I didn't really get it. After that we all went to play captain's ball. It was all really fun until it started raining!

Then we had this Peer Mediation workshop. It was really fun. The instructor had quite a few activities for us. the first one was to seat face to face in pairs, Person A tells Person B their 3 favourite food and B tells A their 3 favourite movies. And we had to remember what the person said. And when she blew the whistle all Bs had move down a seat. I was Person B, but I didn't know what my favourite movies were so I changed here and there. The second activity was also using the same arrangement. A tells B sth, and B has to try to guess A's emotion and get A to talk about their feelings.

The third is my favourite. We did actual Peer Mediation sessions! I volunteered for the example. So it was the Twp instructors as Mediator and Co-Mediator, and Myself and Amanda from 213 as Disputants A and B. Being a disputant rocks. It was all impromptu. We quarreled over Amanda's pink pen, I sort of broke it and denied breaking it, and Amanda wanted me to pay. And my solution was we sign a contract to be clear. It was really stupid, I made the whole thing up on the way.

Then they let us try in groups of four. So it was Jan, XiaoTong, MianJun and myself. We had the most retarded scenarios. Jan and I fought over who was hotter, McSteamy or McDreamy :D You should probably know who was on which side. And the sit was we both believed that the other was disrespecting their choice of guys and trying to force the other to like their guy. Lol. XiaoTong and I fought over project work. I did more, she did less and we got the same marks, so I was unhappy. XiaoTong and MianJun fought over AV duty. The sound system screwed up during a choir concert and XiaoTong who was in charge went to the toilet during the period it screwed up. So she was scolded though she claims to have told MianJun to take over. Jan and MianJun fought over boyfriend problems. Jan has a boyfriend called Ethan (:D), they are on rocks and are working it out, and then Ethan was said to have started dating MianJun, and MianJun and Jan are bestfriends. So Jan is accusing her of stealing her boyfriend. That was really retarded. Lastly Jan and I fought again, this time over a pair of pink heels. Jan saw some heels she loved but didn't have the money. When she finally got enough money the shoe is gone, turns out I bought it and it was the last pair. This was super fun. I love disputing with Jan. But seriously, all four of us are equally good at all the roles. It was really really funny and retarded. And I completely irritated people, not bad.

Oh Elena and Xiao En pretended to be Britney Spears and Paris Hilton, and their problem was that Brit's manager was at the scene during Paris' concert and the music screwed up. So there was some commotion. And their solution was damn gay, they decided to make an album together. I mean the idea wasn't gay, it was just how Xiao En and Elena did it. Like in these gay voices and all. I mean the people in my group are just convincing, but we don't go to the extent of gay. Just 'B-chy' and bimbotic.

So after that we had dinner and bath. Rania and I finished super early and even when we were done bathing, the rest hadn't come up yet. So we spent the whole of bath time sitting at the back watching Xiao En lead the Sec 1s in a song session. It was ultra retarded. Well you know XiaoEn.

Then it was the night trail. It was so freakishly retarded. When the two "ghosts" came in to give instructions, and they said Murder of Matthew Chua, everyone started laughing cause of the retardedly random name, it was so anti-climax. Our first station was pretty easy to guess, the photocopying shop. The thing was the photocopying shop was super in, which equals super freaky. And some of our group members were pretty scared, and they scared themselves and the rest of the group too. So we just stood in the light at the staircase in the admin block in front of the hall. Then we went back up to tell Ms Lai that we couldn't go. Because I mean if we left the scared people behind we'd be dead cause there'd only be half of our small group left which is like 3 people? Then we went down again and finally decided to wait for the next group to come. The other group was huge. And they just went pass us to the station so we went with them. In the end it wasn't scary at all! Because the light at the rock wall was on, and we only had to stop there. We had to make as many paper cranes as possible in 3 min. And in our group only Hilary and I knew how to make I think. But we tried our best. And the rest did their best to help too.

After that they weren't too scared. But our next station was the dance studio, and we were like thinking of all the mirrors and scared ourselves again. So again we walked with the other group. Good thing they told us that the police would come if we nudge the doors so we didn't, but we were freaked out like mad when Eva just came out of the toilet door. She was all happy. So it wasn't too bad. But she was kind of freaky in the overly happy sense. She's pretty good at acting her part. We made her a cake out of cups and we put a torchlight on top as a candle. She went back into the toilet after that. And then we didn't know how to get our next clue! She knocked on the door so I was guessing that we had to open the toilet door, but we were all kind of scared. So we ended up sort of kicking the door, and accidentally hit Eva, SORRY Eva. She ended up having to come out to tell us the clue. Apparently she was actually supposed to whisper through the door.

This next station was the scariest. Because it was the darkest. And the people there were one of the most paranoid. First of all, the Matthew ghost at that station had scary fringe, so we couldn't see her face, at all. And then it was the cleaner, who was the one who lost his mind. It was Xiao En btw. We were so confused. Because the ghost was like "Come closer" "Come closer" and then when we got really close she went "Go away" And she kept doing that so we didn't know what to do. We didn't manage to complete the task in the end, because we had no idea what they wanted us to do. So i think they gave up and just told us their piece and gave us our next clue.

Again they used the number thing. Which was super irritating. It was the pavilion. And for this really long time, I had no idea what it was. Mental block. Anyway, they managed to tell me what it was and we made our way there. But before we decided to go, it was kind of dark and freaky so we didn't go immediately. Instead we listed down what we knew and what we suspected. Because in that station we could ask 4 questions that could help us solve the mystery. When we saw another group approaching we dashed across but in the end they went first. It was super hard to hear what Evie was saying, cause she was speaking so softly. And the irritating thing was the matthew ghost was constantly walking in a circle and the pavilion isn't very big you know. The Matthew ghost came to us and was like "Go to the guard house until i call you" in the ghost-y voice. How retarded. That station was quite easy, we had to find 3 pieces of paper with the same number that fromed like a few bars of a Mozart piece. And we couldn't think of questions to ask! And she was hurrying us, which is freaky. We sort of wasted 2 questions, because she said I don't know, and we were like "Dang".

Our next station was the car park. It was Elena's station! I wasn't really scared because no. 1 it was Elena. And she was acting so Elena. So I'm used to it. But she was acting pretty paranoid. Like Elena-weirdness to the max. No.2 she had no costume so she looked normal. No. 3 the Matthew ghost was the least scary. She was like smiling at us and all. And she just walked around at human pace swishing her cloak at our heads. Retarded. We had to sing the school song one word person. First we were out of tune, or rather speaking, so we had to redo. Then we kept forgetting, so redo. And then we kept pausing trying to remember, so redo. And then like when the Matthew ghost started irritating them and asking us to go faster they got scared and broke off, redo. It was so retarded. Finally we managed to sing in tune, it was way way easier to remember the words then. And everyone was helping to mouth along the song.

That was supposed to be our last station, but Elena gave us a clue. And we went through the talking thing again. Lol. Until they realised after asking us many many questions, that we already finished all our stations. So we ran back to solve the mystery on who was the cause of Matthew Chua's death. We finished our discussion really fast. Cause i actually managed to use reverse psychology and cut the whole convo down. And in the end we were corret. I was shocked actually, I can't believe my reverse psychology worked. But we were a whee bit off. As in we interpreted certain things Xiao En said wrongly. When she said "Accidents can happen" we thought she was trying to push the blame, turns out she was but she literally meant she accidentally killed Matthew Chua. How retarded.

After night trail we had a movie. We watched Step up! Again. But I still enjoyed it, and it brought back memories. We all laid in or on our sleeping bags and watched. Jan fell asleep! I told her she was going to fall asleep in that position of hers. Guess what when she woke up, she sort of woke me up accidentally. Then she wanted to go and brush her teeth. I was still super tired but after much nagging I followed her. When we got back I was like "what time is it?" cause the rest were still sleeping. So Jan showed me her phone, guess what? It was 1.35am! I was like "JAN!" the softest I could managed. She's such a retarded person, waking up in the middle of the night and not check the time! No wonder I was still tired. the sec ones however are retarded people. They woke up between 5-5.30! We only got up to brush our teeth at 6.15. And we were supposed to wake up at 6.30! Of course we were awake due to the intense noise and then the irritating slide. It wasn't even 6.30 and they were the ones who said wake up at 6.30. Cause we were to assemble at 7. Jan was irritated because the moon was still up. She was like "The moon is still up, the moon is still up! The moon symbolizes night, we aren't supposed to wake up and brush our teeth when its night!" now that I mention it, she is kind of ironic. She was the one who woke me up at 1.30am to brush my teeth!

Okay i'm tired, I shall blog the rest tomorrow. Now I shall watch one more episode of friends and got hit the hay. I hope my parents forget about tuition, I feel like just poning, i don't feel like telling my teacher that I'm going to fail chinese terribly. And I don't want to wake up early. I'm tired!

Meanwhile, nights. Oh and I noticed sth, for certain CCAs, the people in it are all really really similar. For example debaters. Oh gosh! They are all the same. Seriously, even their NORMAL actions.

Hello Hello Hello.

Eoys are finally gone. The weird thing is, as stressed as I was, it didn't really feel like Eoys, so now that it's really officially over, it just doesn't seem to be over either. I'm not entirely sure what I feel right now actually.

Well its really late, and even though I was sort of planning to blog like mad cause I haven't been able to for ages (due to a blog ban, you know), but like I said, its late, my room is a huge mess, trust me it looks like the earth 700 years later with Wall-e and all the rubbish, trust me, and like there are people coming over tomorrow. Maybe I won't let them into my room, but you know, it still isn't nice. And my parents have been bugging for quite a bit.

I got carried away watching FRIENDS see. FRIENDS is officially my favourite tv show :D It makes me happy when I'm depressed. And I love talking about it with like Jan and Grace and people who watch FRIENDS, it makes me happy.

Now that Eoys are over I'm gonna be really busy. And unlike most people, I can't wait for training to start, I feel super unfit and I miss the tramp crazy and all the other stuff we do. And I'm extremely fat and unflex now, no its not 'feel' its 'I am'. Which reminds me I have to go do PT later. I've been meaning to start. Well not really, since yesterday. But you know, I better start before training starts, so I won't kill myself, die or whatever. I bet I'm going to be super song, I just hope pt will help.

Well, look at all the time I just wasted. Dang. I will post, promise. Just not now. I won't even let anything slip cause it won't be fun. So yeah, GO TO SLEEP PEOPLE. Yeah it's holidays but you still need sleep. Night.

On second thought I might not post that soon. I'm a busy person okay. I've got drama meeting tomorrow and psl camp the next two days. My holidays are ALREADY packed. And they aren't exactly and entirely here yet. Dang.

You Are From the Moon

You can vibe with the steady rhythms of the Moon. You're in touch with your emotions and intuition. You possess a great, unmatched imagination - and an infinite memory. Ultra-sensitive, you feel at home anywhere (or with anyone). A total healer, you light the way in the dark for many.

You know I always guessed that I might not have been an earthling. But a Moon-ling(?) ? Gosh I'll take forever to find my home, I mean like, how many moons do you know? And its not like rocket-flights are cheap or anything. And gosh talk about long-flights. I might as well just stay on Earth, I don't think I'll ever get used to the whole no-atmosphere-and-all-thing.

You Are a Vanilla Shake

Vanilla, yes, but definitely not boring. You are subtly complex and deeply sophisticated. You're the type of person who has always been ahead of their time. You don't fall for gimmicks or tricks. You are drawn to what's true.

'You're the type of person who has always been ahead of their time.' Now what does that mean? Haha, I'm not sure that's entirely true though :D
