LOL...i'm compiling e list of ppl that we're rejecting now. nvr knew tt volunteerg is so hot in NUS. LOL. i'm not like even half way done and i have like 170 ppl on my list of rejections. and i'm waiting for e stupid permit thing to be approved for gc...worried. y's e police so slow!!!!
anyway i had another cool day yest. i woke up at 630am though i wrote tt i wanted to wake at 6...my dad woke up and nua-ed ard! and din wake me. then i tot of ponning coz i was seriously tired and sleepy and wanted to hibernate. so i smsed nu-er le...but i cldn't get back to sleep. just have a naggy feeling abt things. so i cabbed down. like how rare lahz! okie...so i reached and we all waited for sh who was like 1hr+ late!!!! and he still had e cheek to laugh when we announced that our new policy for latecoming is to wait for everyone to reach before starting. and indeed my instincts are right. e station i/cs were so new and joh was so new...then when it started to drizzle no one did anything and chris was playing. -_-. and i had to give joh and e i/cs instructions. irritating. in fact joh irritated me again yest. but oh well...u get used to daily occurances. LOL. anyway...so i was in sch from 8am till 10+pm. gosh. my days are like spent in such ways. BUT!! today is sorta my free day. LOL.
anyway i have to say sth. it's actually quite hard to get angry in an amused way at someone. and i'm amused and glad that u are. =D.
with renewed energy...i continue to pursue my work.
...
another hectic day...key happenings..
1. made sure that i wld be on time for route recce. i was but no one else was. *grumbles* but the recce was fine...somemore this yr our routes seem more equitable though we were a bunch of gals throwing out the names of places to insert in to the routes. *applause*
2. i realized tt i'm quite gd at finding places. bus instinct. =). and i do love bus journeys alone. feels like u have all e world to urself to think abt things, to appreciate things. coz on buses, u dun feel obliged to do sth productive.
3. was wondering how i wld settle my lunch alone...then i tot of ritch! YEA! so we had lunch at our neighbourhood kopitiam then we bus-ed down to bugis while he kept insisting that i'm cheating by skipping vivo. realized tt it doesn't matter wat u eat or e mode of transport. it's e person you're with. or at least i think so. lunch at e kopitiam was fun while we discussed all kinda stuff like 'whatever', eth etc. he was laughing so happily at our misfortune. LOL. then on e bus...we ran into MT!! who was sleeping and who finally woke up to wave hi. it was totally fun discussing the route with ritch..LOL. simple things can be so amazing. and yes yes...i cheated. hit my finger lorz! =P
4. completed e route!!! the last leg was e worst part coz i finally fell asleep on 33. almost cldn't wake up. but C kept calling me to confirm their location...zzzzzzzz. didn't noe tt i'm tt shagged and tired coz i was on a high most of e day until e last leg which just killed me off. debrief rolled along and finally i left for clementi for my usual sessions
5. i waited half a hr for liy and got worried. coz she told me at 6:10 that she'll reach at 6:30 lahz. since she sounded so sure i was certain she would turn up. she didn't. i left at 7. finally her mom called me back coz i was calling her to ask abt liy's whereabouts and liy smsed me using her fren's phone tt she'll reach at 7:10. i told her tt i'm off to sch. coz really....i dun see y i shld accommodate her so much. in this world, no one wld do e same. u make a promise, u keep it. she cld at least have smsed me earlier but no. discipline needs to be enforced sometimes really.
6. so i got to sch for my grp7meeting. it wasn't too bad...=). esp coz i had kfc meltz during e meeting and we got to laugh at T's english...=D. esp coz he pronounces bond as porn. like...'we can porn the councilors' zzzzzzz. LOL. then me and T has a nice chat on our way home and yepz...we realized tt u can be really gd frens with someone yet have nothing to talk abt on e bus home coz he was thinking abt himself and chri...which surprised me. i guess.....tt e only one who wld nvr have this prob with anyone wld be crappy ching. i felt e same way with xr in e morning lorz. LOL
i simply hope....tt you feel the same magic as i do.
...
i wld advise ritch to not read on...unless u want to hear abt politics.
as i speak over msn tonite to my dearest grp7....i realized some things that somehow tugged my heartstrings...when laogong disagreed with e slpover thing...i just felt my heart sink. coz i know him to well to noe that he wld impose his will on e others. we discussed as grp7, we voted, we trashed things out...but really...every PD has diff styles. and his is an authoritarian style. i dun discount that perhaps he noes best with his wealth of exp...but a proj is abt everyone taking ownership too. if all decisions are made by one person..there's no need for a comm but for a grp of lackeys mahz. i just felt sad tt T is living under his shadow and trying to effect his decisions when he himself doesn't agree fully with them. acting-pd dun mean acting as e pd himself mahz. but acting e role. sigh. and being unable to escape from laogong's shadow...i have no idea y T ask me wat i wld do for every situation tt arose, every issue that needed to be resolved and i realized tt in some warped way...he's been acting out wat i wld do. and he told laogong tt he dunno wat he cld have done/wld do coz i admitted that if i was in chr's position...i wld have agreed to e slpover too. and T reluctantly agreed coz i wholeheartedly agreed. just a tugging feeling...coz i feel tt T can be capable of so much more if he has his own style, his own voice...
then i felt sadder when i see my dearest er zi struggling to get his tots heard...he has idealistic tots of a utopia tt T and laogong cannot appreciate. he felt e need to air them and it made me sad to noe tt actually er zi is really very capable. yet, e role of acting PD was not passed to him coz he's still young and ppl won't listen to him. i agree tt there will be ppl who dun cooperate coz really...he gives too much autonomy to individualism, to freedom of choice, trust that everyone's adults with brains. but...it's sad that things are like this. my struggling er zi.
i rem wat yf asked me e other time...abt who i think is a better catch, ritch or er zi...and i said tt er zi is too playful and childish...not stable enuf, not mature enuf....i definitely was wrong abt e not stable and not mature enuf thing. and i'm proud that er zi chu dao into e club partly from my encouragement. and yepz..chong mama's personality test is very accurate. me and er zi are really twin souls with very similar ideas, tots, maturity, madness etc. from our coconut dances to our discussions over the autonomy that members shld have.
tugs at my heartstings to noe that such a fine talent is buried somewhere in e politics...sigh
...
now for e 2nd part. LOL.
after gc...taking C's advice i took bus to bishan and i'm proud to say that i found e way! LOL. changed bus a total of 3 times to get to e home though. but i'm on concession in prep for e route recce on tues. wheee...quite fast though. he's right...takes abt same time as taking bus to mrt station then mrt-ing down then taking bus again. =D.
anyway by e time i reached..most of e things were done and i simply helped to prep the things we need then looked at e PA system, try to rem oldies that we can sing etc. can't really rem wat i did coz i was so sei then. told myself not to sleep on e bus though i almost fell asleep which is rare for me. not a bus-sleeper. anyway...i was amazed tt i made a meaningful comment during e debrief despire my sei-ness and me not being ard for e stuff they're debriefing abt. LOL.
after all tt sei-ness...finally we got into e car and i was wondering y ritch din ask everyone if they wanted to have dinner..but it didn't matter coz my after-pah-activities schedule is just to follow ritch and e car. so i got on and tried to fall asleep. and after a short while, dinner was mentioned. LOL. and we went to ECP!! for seafood!!! at that long stretch of shops place. forgot e name of e stretch. but i realized tt i am quite timid sometimes. LOL. coz first time there and first time seeing such aggressive waiters/waitresses trying to get us into their shops. it's like i din dare to look at them. LOL!! then stupid ritch told me to find a shuai ge then we can enter. LOL. i wanted to say sth back to him but i didn't of coz. LOL. =P. so we walked ard quite abit coz i can't find a shuai ge when i'm afraid of looking into their faces. finally he gave up and told us to choose betwn his two fists which represent diff eateries so i randomly hit one of it then we went over...and gosh. he's seriously a chinatown boy. LOL. coz he was in a singlet and chewing his gum...then he asked if they have discounts for any credit cards..they said no...then he motioned for us to walk off.. LOL.it was e way he did it. LOL. like a chinatown ah seng. not bad...cluedo shld recruit ppl like this. hidden talent. and he had a green worm tattoo too! (from e paint). then i realized tt i felt abit scared of him...but e funniest part was that i was scared of him but wanted to hide behind him coz i'm scared of him? must be e lack of sleep. LOL.
anyway...after some ah-senging at diff eateries...we settled for jumbo where he didn't even ask if there's discount coz he liked e place. -_-. LOL. so we had zi cha...nice nice..e food was fantastic..and e scenery was really nice (oops! i can't rem if we cld see e sea/pond) but can see e sky. and as of the day before....the same surreal thing happened..ppl talking abt me in front of me. LOL. this time it wasn't joh trying to scandalize us but ed trying to scandalize me and ritch coz he wanted water...zzzz. and he asked if ritch wanted 'wan' and ritch said tt he wanted 'one'. which was absurd. LOL!! coz he wanted water and not one mahz. LOL. illogical arguments...think we all very sei. anyway e conclusion was tt i'm not 'wan' in e first place. then i said tt i feel like i'm full of rice (like a wan/bowl)
then we played zhong ji mi ma to finish e food though there were many ppl waiting. then e waitresses kept wanting to clear our food but we refused to let them clear..coz we playing mahz!! and e front part was super funny. coz ed and hm kept eating and me and ritch were on a winning streak. then of coz...luck ran out. and i ate quite alot of rice lahz....coz e other thing left was like capsicum and onions. -_-.
anyway it was fun and we took many many photos esp me and hm..LOL!! quite fun. and oh yah!!! can watch ppl do e cable-windsurfing thing and laugh. LOL. but it's really cool. too bad i can't swim for nuts.nice watching e 'fatties' fall and e 'terrorist' with his stunts. they were so evil lahz. esp when this guy did a thumbs-up to his gf. then they said he show off..then in e next round he really fell. LOL! then they were so happy. LOL. goodness. great way to disstress..got nice wind too. anyway we did that before dinner. and we had a stroll around e rather big pond after dinner with a few PRCs commenting that e 'hai (sea) very nice' or sth. then i said tt i shld teach them abt scale. very geographical then finally ritch was nice!! and we drove hm home. =). then we were driving in e general direction of home when he decided tt he wanted durians. then he asked if we wanted. as usual i'm okie with anything with regards to food while ed say 'okie lorz....' then ritch said 'so mian qiang then forget it lorz'...then drive somemore then he said 'so..want not want not??!!' LOL! and tt was how we ended up in chinatown with durians. yumz. LOL.
tt's generally my summary of e day. and i realized tt it was a very sei day coz my gs ppl were all abit sei..and my pah ppl were even more sei. LOL. oh yah. ritch's fav line when he's sei is to ask me to drive us home. so finally...i made him a promise tt i'll learn driving within the next 5 yrs and drive him. promise. LOL. but still...will prob have no car then. but promise le.
...
i looked at my results yest..and k ahz. i lost my sem-to-sem upward trend. gosh. but it was totally expected and i am grateful that overall...my CAP still improved. though it's by 0.01. i'm quite baffled by one of my mods though. tut participation was 10% (i won't blame e tutor for failing me for that i guess...though i dun think he failed me since i had MC for one and went for make-up tut for e other one tt i missed] but still..e CA was 30%..i got A+ and i got a B overall. hmmmm. thinking whether to do a review.assuming that i got 0 for tut participation...to get from a A+ to a B (esp when most ppl din do well for e term paper) would mean...then i got like only 58 marks for e exam??? i didn't think it was that bad bahz....thinking. but still....it's mafan and i'm just...........not a slicker for grades. *shrugs* not that ppl who do reviews are lahz. just that i rather spend e thing doing that admin on other stuff like doing my MOU for example (also admin but i feel as if i get money. though i dun keep it..LOL!!)
anyway...it was fun checking results together..every yr i check my sem 2 results with e gc ppl. and we flashed it on e big LT projector screen this yr. more exciting with more ppl checking together. LOL. anyway i was pleased with my tourism mods. indeed a gd strategy to do them tgt. ;).
gc went on fine. hosting wasn't that hard. though i felt a lil like a flower vase yest. but well...it feels gd to look extra nice once in awhile. =). e kids were interesting and had quite a few funny qns. though many were valid. looking at e kids made me think abt my attachment. hope i get nice kids for attachment too. but perhaps e kids will kill me during attachment. i realized that i have a weird habit. i will ask a qn and expect everyone to answer en masse. like 'are we ready?' then i will wait for a 'yes'. LOL!! hope i get responsive students in future. i dun want to talk to myself manz.
anyway prior to gc (2 days before)...i must say tt i was super pissed. coz we were supposed to have a briefing e day before e event as well as a dry run. no one knew wat time we were supposed to meet lahz!!! no coordination at all. and in fact...i got so pissed that i decided to imprison everyone in e clubrm prior to the event which explained e sleepover and resultant popsicle-ization. LOL!! all of us woke up the next day with a slight cold. but i must say that it was really fun. for me...it was e first time i slept over in sch for a gs event. it just feels diff when u sleep over before an event. seriously feel a sense of ownership. e more u pia for sth..u more u feel for it mahz. applies to all things in life. but my anger had dissipated after having a chat with S over e phone before we met in sch le. so i went over as crazy as before. it's really freaky when someone who's usu not angry gets angry. if i'm in SAF...there will prob be many emergency mobilization exercises. LOL. i just called/smsed everyone at at 2am telling them to bring sleeping bag, change of clothes and toiletries lahz. emergency mobilization...they had like 12 hrs to pack (assuming they dun sleep) tt kinda thing. i'm mad.
anyway...e day before gc (sleepover day) was off to a bad start when S smsed everyone a diff set of instructions from me. -_-. but it didn't make a diff..LOL. coz all who cld meet just met at e time i told them. which was damn sad. but it's a blessing in disguise coz we met at 1...did e log stuff, setting up etc till 9pm. imagine if we met at 5 which S set...we wld set up till 1am!!! in LTs with aircons tt off after 12. and i wldn't have had my 3hr meeting. can't imagine how i had a 3hr meeting when there was only 2 msgs to convey. but of coz they were impt enuf msgs for everyone to end up sleeping over. but somehow...i conveyed them with no hard feelings and we took photos with e LT clock that showed 00:54 (can't wait to put tt pic on msn)...LOL!!! val dear commented that it's the latest meeting she had ever had excluding FOC meetings. (but FOC meetings were also conducted by me last yr mahz!! no choice. val dear....u're stuck with me at nite for meetings...muahahahah).
then yepz...we proceeded to clubrm to sleep and say C and J. J as usual was a gentleman to everyone...and as usual...all my frens who see him will ask me abt him and his English gentlemanliness. LOL. as we discovered that val has some flair for telling if two ppl are attached. coz typically if u walk into a rm at 1+am...and see 2 ppl watching a movie on e sofa and they're going to be sleeping over..just 2 of them...u wld think they're tgt mahz. so i tot i shld clarify for them and when i told e rest...val said tt she cld tell. like WOW!!!
anyway...after e popsicle-ization...i had 2 tau sa paus for breakfast!! papabird has made paus worth mentioning. then we had our event. YEA!!!
one part down..two parts more to go. more flower-vasing in due time.
on a side note...2 interesting things happened:
1. joh trying to scandalize us to J but i absolutely ignored him and continued g-chatting with rubz even when he leant really close. LOL. so he failed. anyway J doesn't carry tales. but joh was super zzz saying things like he joined eth and gs only coz of me and stuff like he'll follow me anywhere....kinda thing....it was just a laugh coz he tried scandalizing someone who doesn't care wat he says to someone who wldn't care wat he said either..super funny!!
2. xr was funny too. coz he came to sch at 5.30...thinking we had to meet at 5 and he was pissed coz he called zq who gave him e msg who din ans...then he called S who din answer either. then finally he called me and i told him tt briefing's at nite and that we're setting up now and he was angry (rubz's right..we'll be too if we're in his shoes....but oh well!!). and he scolded me!! LOL. then i just said sorry that he got e wrong msg and kept apologizing lorz. then we put down e phone. then he smsed me sorry and he's super apologetic he did that and everything and he said tt he shld have scolded S and not me. then i just ignored him sms lorz. LOL!! then he smsed S to scold her!!!! and e funniest part was that right after tt sms...he sent another to apologize. totally bizarre. but S ignored him too..LOL!!! then finally he called rubz today (aik!!) and asked if i cried. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he asked if i hid in a corner to cry. super funny. i totally forgot that he scolded me e moment we hang up lahz...rubz was so amused that she had to call me str after e call to tell me tt xr was wondering if i cried.
my tears are reserved for special ppl.
anyway...i told rubz that he shld have told him tt i cried just to make him feel guilty. then we decided tt i prob had fled to e toilet for super long and re-entered the room with a red face and that i was pensive and quiet e whole nite. that wld conform to expectations. LOL!!
updates on pah on e next post
...
yest i got to watch a vcd...that i bought a yr ago. LOL. it was indeed interesting. didn't really watch it coz i didn't like gore in movies and it's some boxing thing. LOL. but!! i bought it coz richie ren's in it (now i feel weird typing that name) anyway yea! i love richie ren (e artiste). LOL. he's just super cute. nice hair, nice tan, nice smile. *dreamy* anyway...miraculously...it wasn't a bloody movie. though it's not exactly nice except for e fact that richie looks nice in it (feels damn weird typing this..surreal feeling) anyway. yah!! richie ren. LOL. but he really looks very nice in e movie (repeating myself not coz i'm crazy abt him but coz it feels surreal and i want to make sure of i dunno wat). argh!! i think i lack sleep. but u get e idea. he just looks nice in e movie. his hair and smile were e perfect combi. but despite e lacklustre movie which was slightly redeemed by his brilliant smile, e movie was just weird. surreal! keyword for today. coz at e end of it...i listened to e song that accompanied e credits (i usu do that for vcds. no peer pressure to leave). and wow...at e end........there were MTVs!!! like wth. LOL...and e funniest thing is that e songs were by nice artistes like rene liu (liu ruo ying) but they were obscure songs that sounded horrible!! like utterly tuneless. LOL. madness. then finally e last MV as a song by richie ren. in fact he was a co-director of e movie that he starred at which included an MV that he recorded for his song???? super weird vcd. and it's bought from HMV for goodness sake!! LOL! but his song sounded even nicer after 3 tuneless nonsense before that. LOL!!!!!!! i realized tt he has a nice sincere voice.
anyway. today. LOL. did log. wouldn't want to bore with details but i am getting better at reading e street directory!!!! yea!! i was nice though. got doughnuts!! and lucky ritch, zq and mabs benefitted. LOL. oh yah...me and my mom too. yea! tasted good and e best thing was that i saw my junior selling them. it's really been awhile and she looks even prettier now. can still rem e poor gal and her heartbreak over e jerk. LOL!! no choice. i am just prejudiced against that guy..esp since i noe like 3 ppl who were so upset over him.
anyway!!! yea!! funnies:
1. ritch told us that we were supposed to walk into this entrance thing at e newat*r plant. and we believed him though that place looked really really weird and did not resemble any entrance and was empty. having walked like 10 steps into it..we discovered an overwhelming stench. and escaped!!! LOL. then we looked to our left...and saw e office. -_-. thanks ritch for e nice tour to demostrate e stinkiness of e plant and making us walk into a 'shithole'. LOL!!!! we....hor-lanned (got lost) on foot. once again...thanks to ritch. LOL!!!
2. okie...this isn't really funny...but i realized that e best way to stack things is to layer them in a criss-cross manner!!! wonderful! since we're on such 'things learnt'/debrief/post-mort em stuff...i also learnt that it's not useful to buy doughnuts to eat on e road coz ritch is busy driving and i'm busy reading e map. how to eat??
3. e last funny isn't funny. =(, maybe i shld stop classifying this section as funnies. they aren't funny anyway. shld just call it 'random nonsense'. anyway...this guy called me...cldn't understand wat he was saying so i hung up. and he called again lahz!! unknown number mahz..so had to answer e call. he asked for 'fourteen cans' or so i heard. which was surreal. reminded me of e green tea tt we got for free today coz of our purchases. anyway i told him tt i dun sell stuff and hung up thinking that he's just some weird guy trying to place orders for something while may explain his weird slang. then he smsed me!!!!!!!!!!!! and he typed what i tot was fourteen cans as 'fu*king can?' super super zzz. so i replied (great..i'm talking to a pervert) and asked how he got my number! and he said he saw it from a toilet door and he's from m'sia (wonderful. an overseas pervert) then he started asking me like where i'm from etc and i ignored him. LOL. super weirdo.
...
i was thinking today....tt it really boils down to wat kinda life i want. a peaceful ride or one with bumps and slopes tt go up and down. most ppl who noe me prob noe wat kinda rides i like...but maybe nowadays...i'm on e road more...i realize tt nice peaceful rides are nice too..though ritch calls it automat-dunno wat. LOL. of coz i would opt for e bumps. but tiring. really really tired. more tiring than standing ard with shoes tt bite me. speaking of tt..really proud of myself. i think i bought e correct set of thingies for my wound. LOL. din get plaster coz wound too big!! and i got gauze and e brown tape thing. looked pretty neat. prob was tt i din wash my wound before sticking e things on. LOL!!!! but well..better than nth...
i felt the distance. feeling very luan. u make me wonder. you make me doubt.
it's like i'm in a bubble tt can burst anytime...and i'll simply drop into an abyss and i wouldn't even noe wat lies beneath. e distance is suffocating. i cannot express how much i wld wish to reach out and care for u. yet everytime, i fear to only touch emptiness.
it's true tt u cherish above all else e things u lose. i nvr thought that sth so small can be significant to me until today when i felt so lost without you. realized tt you're right..i'm dependent. but i believe tt i am brave coz of u as well. all depends on e scenario.
i wonder y i keep having to go thru this all-too-familiar cycle of love and loss and then new love.
...
realized tt i can type chi on my pc!! thanks to C who has been corresponding with e taiwanese students in chi!! so finally i can express some of my tots in chi. not tt i'm cheena...but i've always felt that chi is an emotive language...and beautiful language and can convey certain feelings better than eng. always felt that chi is e lang for sadness and eng e lang for anger.
so all i want to say it:
我愿意等待。但我 到了尽头。。。 能还是一无所有。
那么得没把握。。 。。却又不肯放 ,不肯灰心。
多希望你有一样的 觉。 我祈祷,你的生命 终究能有一个我
anyway...on a less depressing note...i bought:
2 pairs of shoes
1 shirt
1 necklace
1 jacket
4 hairties
1 hello kitty cushion.
no time to shop mahz..one time buy everything. had great fun. thanks grace dear!!
...
very amazed, very gan dong and very xin tong.
all at e same thing. really can't believe tt ritch got home after driving from 9am to 8pm and managed to type that insanely long email. really a very gd PD lorz...too gd maybe. but everything is running smoothly coz of his constant surveillance bahz..every minute detail. really gan dong tt i have a PD who feels so strongly for a proj and who's so willing to sacrifice sleep, sanity and health. and very xin tong too.
it was indeed a fun and crazy day. went to HM's place and picked up tons of newspaper (felt so garang guni). after much carrying..i realized tt i haven't sweated like tt in a long while. and 3 of us were like dripping sweat after tt lahz. LOL! but a worthwhile experience. then we picked up more supplies then went to sch then went to e home. =D.
e funny part was that i was supposed to read e street directory and e route thing. i was okie for e first and second stop. LOL!! e third was just mind-boggling. e stupid bedok reservoir rd stretches for eternity lahz. had zilch idea which part we were on all of e time. LOL! and e online guide mentioned an exit tt we did not even see. but of coz we survived by e miracle of well-linked expressways in sg.
and of coz it was heartwarming tt when we were moving things at clubrm...JK woke up to help us...yz too!! despite their lack of sleep...see!! they are nice. well everyone agrees tt JK is nice. nicest gentleman on earth. shakes hands with u everytime u sees u and says 'good day/good afternoon/good evening' to every single person!! esp nice to all gals. LOL! and yz is nice too!! hint to ritch.
anyway...during e moving..i realized a few things...comserviceclub guys very nice..like to snatch things from me to carry. and also tt e gals are strong!! LOL. and i realized sth else!! tt ritch can run faster than me and carry heavier stuff than me. i see this as a physiological disadvantage. unfair. but although he pants after climbing stairs and i dun...when he really is commited and passionate abt sth (moving log). he won't pant!! and he can sprint up stairs. and i run slower than him up e stairs. -_-. but it was fun..like an action movie...we grabbed our last things. yz came to help...we chiong down. ritch was at e bus stop...and i shouted 'go get e van!!' then he ran to get e van and we all loaded our stuff. like action movie!! okie..i'm easily amused.
but today..really xin ku HM le...coz she sat with e log at e back...*bows* and sorry to ritch for making u hor-lan and for blowing e straw paper thing at u when u're so seh. but din noe tt u're tt seh till after i blew it and saw ur face..like oops. *bows*
really really thankful tt i can help e ID
really really thankful tt i got to noe so many ppl better esp my fellow siao char bohs, HM, my fellow lye aka sister, JL aka da bao and of coz ritch.
and of coz i'm most thankful for e fact tt i'm in e proj
fate works in such a weird way tt sometimes...it's not e time tt matters as well. u can u/s someone so deeply w/o noeing e person long. maybe e more u noe someone...e more irreplacable e person becomes. i'm really quite lousy. LOL. i think i noe u well...yet i can nvr be sure tt wat i think is correct. dense? a lack of confidence? instinctively noe tt i am biased in my view of things?
but i guess tt all tt matters now is that we're happy and most imptly that u're happy. really. =D
...
i wonder if i expect too much from ppl. maybe i take things too personally. everyone who works with me/work under me/works above me...i treat each and everyone as my child, sister, brother...i cheer everytime u all take a step forward, overcome a difficulty. but whenever u ppl make a mistake, give up...u ppl walk off noeing tt e mess will be cleared up. everytime i watch u ppl do sth like tt, my heart bleeds a lil.
every fatal mistake makes me wonder if it's a lack of aptitude or a sign that u dun care enuf. every white flag makes me wonder if i'm not doing a gd job motivating each and every one of u.
i hated it when S din turn up for meeting when she's e PD.
i hated it when dan said he wanted to drop out of FOC coz he has cheerleading
what made me snap was when J told me tt he can't call 83 schs coz he has other commitments. esp frustrating when J's other commitment is ethe. and i'm in both and more. why cldn't he understand tt being in more than one proj doesn't mean sharing ur efforts into some 50%-50% formula? but a 100%-100% total 200% formula? i can frankly say tt i'm putting in at least 90% per proj. heartbreaking tt ppl dun even try putting in all they can but just claim that they cannot do anymore than 50%.
really really heartbreaking. mamaleong was rite...i treat my ccas as if they are my babies...and most than tt...i treat everyone in my ccas as my dearest children. i cannot take it when one gives up trying to walk and say tt he's contented with crawling for e rest of his life.
...
feel like 'bao-ing'...i.e. exploding. sigh. it's always e same person and e same proj tt's giving me problems. cannot understand y S will tell me tt she done checking e letter and ask if i can send it out today. when i replied tt i'll send at 2pm...she din reply.
at 2pm...i realized tt she din send me my letter back so i dunno if she edited it. so i called her, no response..i smsed. and waited for 2 hrs. then she gave me her email acct password. zzzzzz. i dun u/s y some ppl can tell u to do sth yet not foresee that u are unable to do it coz tt person has not given u e item. it's like...telling u to pare an apple when tt person nvr give u e apple. zzzz. and u can't buy e apple from anywhere else either. really confounding.
anyway...finally i settled more GC stuff since i'm in sch and i compiled my pah list with e details from e others...abit worrying tt abt 10 ppl dropped out from e 9th on P's list. must really plug in e gaps. came to sch with e intention to call volunteers lahz. but problems. sigh.
okie...next up...time to read my ethe program proposal to prep to comment on papabird's program later.
it's times like this..when i feel overworked tt i just want to find a field somewhere with a nice breeze...lie down and not think abt anything except for e cool wind against my face. i shall not look at my calender to select a day. it seems rather impossible.
for now...i just want to be a simple gal.
...
so busy tt i am forgetting my name, my earrings, my tv shows..even forgetting tt it's time to sleep. but i haven't forgotten u. =). i smiled. LOL. hope tt's e right reaction.
anyway...yah..busy. i dun understand how anyone can end up with so much work...but really really really have to thank 3 impt ppl...
1. e most impt one..is my nu-er. for being ever so willing to 'snatch' my ethe work from me. thanks so much nu-er...i noe tt when we started we agreed tt i'll do more during term time and u'll do more during e hols coz u want to study. but still...paisei abt u doing say...70% of e work. =X. and i noe tt u're free-ing me up so tt i can advise kris more for her duties. but still paisei. coz advising isn't as shiong as admin mahz. though u will argue tt u noe less abt programmes. but still..nu-er..i love u!! LOL. really mei you sheng cuo ni.
2. JL and ed for offering to help with PAH stuff and even offering to take some of my part. especially thankful to JL rather than my gals coz afterall they're not in my cell mahz. esp coz JL called 60 ppl. LOL. and amazingly he finished. okie lahz..i'm not bad too k...i called slightly over 60 le..just tt my list has 200 ppl mahz. LOL!!!! and really..i realize tt e ppl who have indicated dates more enthu. quite a few ppl from my 60+ are working/interning.
3. ritch for giving such clear deadlines and for settling some of our games for us..from conceptualization to e log. feels weird to have e PD do stuff for me then ask for our comments. and i commented tt he shld change part of e thing. LOL!!!!!!!! but thanks really.
my worries now are endless...
1. ethe w/o a PD. realization that there is a need to babysit. and realizing that somehow e task fell upon my lap since i'm e only one who has ever PD-ed a camp in e com. and tt somehow i can think of programme-related issues. i'll jiayou.
2. gc. dept breathing down on me...S feels so inexperienced, slow....she can't even make a timeline. sigh. and she still hasn't emailed everyone e timeline despite telling her so. crawling crawling crawling. i'll have to remind everyone tt we start 26th. it's now e 14th in case no one has noticed. more babysitting.
3. clashes. coz of gc's timeline changing drastically coz of funding issues and dept intervention..now. both of e dates of gc clashes with PAH.
i'm kinda sick of babysitting. i've nvr liked to babysit. i used to tell ppl back in JC tt i can lead..but at any time of e day. i wld much rather facilitate/advise. i believe tt ppl have e ability to learn on their own lehz. but sometimes........e learning route is too long. and we got no time i.e. gc, ethe. i used to give S alot of autonomy and authority. suddenly...these days...i'm snatching things from her/telling her wat to do step by step. dun like e way things are like.
life's fun though esp in e clubrm. LOL. stupid scandal creating. e scandals are so stupid tt i have fun laughing. they have stupid things like us doing banana split?? watever tt is also no one noes. LOL. they just laugh at wat they dun understand. LOL. then there's stuff like how i tie up ritch's hair?? which i cannot imagine anyway.anyway e funniest part was tt laogong kept saying tt he's sad to leave coz my scandal is so happening now. -_-. in fact he invented all e stories with tiong lahz. two of them invented a basket of stories and editted existing stories...from 'i just had my meeting at ritch's place lorz...then so fun!! me YT and P played volleyball with his cushion!!' to --> 'i went to ritch's house. so fun! we played volleyball with his cushion'. zzzzzzzzzz. no mention of meeting, change of e ppl i played volleyball with.
anyway...yepz...tt's it.
few things i've been pondering over:
1. cca...it's not e number of ppl in e comm that matters but e willingness, drive of each of them. [comparing gc to pah]. and it's not just e willingness and e drive...but sometimes..it's e ability and e experience too. [thinking of ethe]
2. love. recently i realized tt most love is selfish [with regards to ting's case. it's usu a 'but i need u coz of this', 'i'm happy with u']. i realized tt i am loving w/o agenda. which freaks me out. i dunno y but i dun care if i'm happy...if i'm doing things in vain...if i'm thinking too much. i only care tt i am respecting ur decision, ur choices, ur actions. even if they contradict...i dun qn. that's really freaky to me. when u do/say things tt make me happy...tt happiness is magnified. but strangely...when u do things tt upset me, they become a passing cloud. coz i feel that if tt's wat u want/feel...i can respect tt coz u have ur reasons. and i dun want to force/push/stress u into anything.
haven't been upset for quite awhile actually. =D

张信哲-做你的男人
东京纽约每个地点
带你去坐幸福的地 铁
散步逛街找电影院
累了我就帮你提高 鞋
塞车停电哪怕下雪
每天都要和你过情 节
星光音乐一杯热咖
只想给你所有浪漫 节
让我做你的男人
24个小时不睡觉
小心翼翼的保持
这种热情不退烧
不管世界多纷挠
我们俩紧紧的拥抱
隐隐约约我感觉有 笑
藏在你嘴角
让胆小的你在黑夜
也会有个依靠
就算有一天爱会变
人会变老
就算没告诉过你也 道
下辈子还要和你遇

whirlwind of events these days. finally i got more sleep yest. =). since i only had one meeting at 3pm and it's at ritch's place. thanked my lucky stars. i even had a wonderful wonderful wonderful dream tt i cannot forget! LOL
it was a really fun meeting of coz...with ritch's swimming dance, my 'activities of daily life dance'. it's really fun creating dances for IDs and prob kindergarten kids too. you just feel llike u can teach them anything. no need for being on e beat, no need for perfection. just have to be urself really. which explains y i'm even crazier these days after seeing e ID. just feel a sense of...'being myself' which equates to madness. and e best part of e day besides e dancing was volleyball!! ed was e pioneer of the game but he grew sick of it. hence, me and my VM-ies took over and had a truckload of fun. btw..e volleyball was a soft cushion. ;). totally fun. LOL!! i love my VM gals. =D. anyway...our avg height (3 of us) is 156. told u ppl tt i'm tall!!! =P. LOL!
anyway we had dinner after tt..seldom that i eat tze char with dishes and rice. ritch really brings me to makan places. LOL! it was really fun giving PL more food coz my height (160) is her dream height and she's like 151.5 or sth...LOL. so we kept telling her tt she'll reach 160 if she eats tt extra piece of whatever. LOL!!! poor gal was totally bullied. then had to change target before she puked. so we targetted ed instead. and he resisted by hitting ritch's chopsticks away. so no choice!! me and ed had a chopsticks fight. exciting!!! LOL. alot at stake. might puke if i eat an extra piece u see...alot at stake. LOL.
anyway...tt was e fun part of yest...time for e not so fun part...
i woke up to a recent spate of emails betwn xq and 0sa. sigh. xq being e VP for e club. anyway...i was quite upset after seeing e mails...and e reason was simply strange. it was coz i felt that instead of lightening ritch's load like wat a gd comm member wld do...i added on to it with the trouble. e even weirder part was that i started crying. LOL! maybe not so weird actually...i can understand y i did wat i did. the weirdest part!! was tt xq typed good english!!!!!!! *faintz* and he had to call me to show off and he read excerpts of his email and he marvels at how brilliantly phrased his email was. LOL!!! i guess his reaction holds testimony to the rarity of his flair. anyway e most humiliating part was that i started crying over e phone!! and xq asked if i'm crying then i said 'of coz not' LOL!! anyway he tried to comfort me saying tt he believes that i'm in e right and tt i dun have to be scared etc. but i didn't cry coz i was scared/felt that the others had no faith in me. it was pretty much e contrary. i wasn't scared and wanted to face the issue myself. e last thing i wanted was to mafan the already busy ritch. and i wasn't sad coz i tot that the others had no faith in me. i was touched that there was such strong faith.
life works in amazing ways.......
but i'm okie le!! thinking of fun activities for others work wonders!! okie. it's 8pm now and yousendit has sent my 20mb ppt out. shall go home to a nice dinner and blog abt today later tonite! =)
gambatte everyone!!
...
chionging cca like mad. frankly....i'm glad tt i can still go on. coz it means tt i truly believe in what i'm doing. e stupid piano E guy from eons ago actually emailed e dep director of 0sa. to complain tt i took his bench 2 months ago. wth. LOL!! and i had to settle e matter this morning whilst i met shir and tc for gc this morn. S nicely pang sei me. LOL!! things ended funny. suddenly e dept wants a stake in e proj again. sigh. but tt settles our booking of venues really quickly and i'm more optimistic abt e goodie bag now. fingers crossed. w/o S...it felt like a tripartite thing. with me, shir and tc making all e decisions. not a gd feeling bahz. she's e PD somemore. but she pang sei. argh.
anyway...then after doing e PAH stuff...i asked e 0sa lady for e email tt ritch sent to e Piano E guy just to know our stand with regards to e situation better. but i confess tt it's also coz i wanted to noe if he apologized on my behalf coz tt would upset me coz it would mean tt he doesn't want to fight with me. but of coz!! he didn't. LOL. i guess tt if i were ritch, i would have apologized even if i trusted my comm member coz i believe in solving problems. whatever solves the problem best is e best option. i would of coz explain to e comm member tt although i'm apologizing i trust him/her. but ritch is gd in e sense that he is uncompromising and tt he has complete faith in e people working for him bahz. makes me reflect abt how i would handle a similar situation. hmmmmmm. thought of the day. LOL!! anyway e funniest thing is tt e Piano E webbie types tt irritating guy's title as preseident. LOL!!!!!!!! given the sparseness of e webbie and the perfect spelling of vice president and how it's unlikely that they din spot e mistake....enough said abt his position in e eyes of his members. i'm glad i'm still just a president. LOL!
i can only hope that e dust dies down for this stupid matter. i dun pay sch fees for 0sa to explore the conflicts over the use of benches in sch.
...
another packed day. LOL. i was on my way to sch for FIC meeting..then i got a call from tc. who asked how i'm doing blah blah and finally ask where i am. and i said i'm one stop from sch. and he asked me if i can go over to his office to talk abt GC and e taiwan students thing. LOL!! tc's beating ard e bush as usual. so i made sure that e meeting rm was open then went down to tc's office and we talked. and surprisingly my brain's still gd. coz i tot of a solution which he didn't think of. my lateral thinking or watever thinking skill it is must be getting better. in fact!! i think e suggestion tt i gave over dinner today too. pasting an advertisement for volunteers for this other project in e lunch boxes of PAH. LOL!! imagine they holding their packet lunch and staring at tt ad for half an hr!! effective advertising lahz!!! at least e suggestion got applause and laughter. and tc was pleased with my suggestion earlier today too. coolz.
anyway then i went down for FIC meeting which lasted like an hr. fast, efficient. i love it. LOL. but i think i was really zoned out today. coz i smsed bug instructions abt e meeting rm door but i cldn't find e right words to describe e door somehow and typed two smses worth of stuff abt unlocking e rm. -_-. with content like 'sth like that...i dunno how to say...i think i'm sleepy. sorry ahz...later u will noe when u see e door' tt kinda thing. LOL. and apparently i smsed ritch something which made him think tt i went home tgt with bug. but!!! when my tutee asked me wat's sustainable development. i cld quote her e brundtland report's definition of it. -_-. anyway. e most amazing thing happened. i cabbed back home from sch. first time in my life tt i'm on a cab in e daytime. e only time when i take cab is when:
1. everyone else ard me wants to cab
2. it's after midnight and i have no bus home.
virgin lone-cabbing attempt successful.
anyway...i rushed home grabbed 3 packets of biscuits as lunch and my dad said tt he doesn't understand how i can chiong so much and not feel tired. i guess.....i dunno either. LOL. then i ate my biscuits at everton and reflected upon my commitments. and i realized tt if ritch wasn't e PD..i won't be eating biscuits at a bench in everton not coz e PD won't be living there. LOL. but coz i wldn't have joined e proj. then i realized tt i'm glad ritch's e PD coz i dun regret joining e proj though i'm super busy coz of it. then i tot once again abt me joining gs...totally by chance as well. fate brings me to weird places. weird but interesting places.
then we got down to pick up zq and sj at outram mrt and LOL..we blocked e cars while we waited for them near e bus bay. got some nasty stares and honks but we ignored them LOL. then finally we reached e home. and hmmmmmm...some changes to our initial plans but at least e proj's ongoing. =) and they think that e woman with all e comments is e mistress of e CEO. i just think tt she's an auntie-ish person who wants e wall near her office painted. she's so auntie tt she wants diff parts of e home painted with diff things. LOL!! think e residents will be damn confused. then i suggested tt we shld paint her office red. coz it agitates e residents. muahahahaha. ph yah..e funnies.
1. ritch knocked down a shrub at e home. -_- with his horrendous parallel parking. now e plant is almost parallel to e ground. -_-.
2. i had e longest handshake in my life. a resid shook my hand for say....20secs?? and i just kept laughing. i really dunno how to deal with ID. i think i am too crazy. i just feel like shaking his hand harder. when they wave at me....i feel like matching their energy. feel like jumping up and down and waving. have to restrain myself coz i won't want them to imitate my behaviour thinking it's normal.
anyway it was another long meeting kinda thing..and we ended with dinner once again then drove home!! and i did sth funny. LOL. ritch tried to wipe this fogged part of his car side window. really small part. but he tried to wipe from e inside. how stupid. LOL. so as we neared my place i took out my tissue. i told him to wait awhile as i got out of e car. then i wiped it for him. just felt like doing it. LOL. then he started laughing and he looked really happy tt it was gone. LOL. so crazy. but i guess tt e small things really make a diff in showing tt u care.
...
before i start with my hectic days...let me demonstrate one of e most absurdmsn conversation tt can ever occur:
A says:
boo!
A says:
u there?
B says:
hey! u there?
B says:
im here!
e reason for e result of this msn conversation is not due to e fact that A and B are tired and sleepy and blur..but a bad net connection. LOL!! coz B typed msgs and A din reply. coz e msgs weren't sent thru. LOL!! but still looks absurd. i think B aka ritch is very absurd today. LOL. i was going to go draw money...and he asked 'y u drawing money?' LOL!!! and i tot i was sleepy. now...tt sounds like a gd prelude to my days as follows..LOL!!
yest: gave tuition. almost died. coz suddenly she had so many qns and i cldn't extend e session coz got chalet!! so i rushed thru e main pts really quickly and ran off!! then i took e bus down to bedok and bought a whole pack of tissue paper coz i had slight flu. i got to bedok and luckily robz was really nice and told me to all my barang into his bag. LOL. which included my laptop. start of a lucky day. then we had okie-tasting hawkerfare and all of us got down to ECP! yea!!! then we played hearts..while ppl like kai had like 60pts...i had 2 pts kinda thing..LOL!! total lead. then i got qi to take over. and she lost. -_-. LOL!!!!! tt was just super funny. LOL.
then papabird and robz went to get e food and me, kai, qi, jj were left. so we played ludo. but it wasn't exciting. they dun kick ppl home unless they have no choice. so sianz. LOL!! e objective of e game is to be a psychotic man-eating maniac mahz!! then...papabird and robz came back. -_-. we were on our first and only game of ludo. LOL!!!!! they went to marina bay and back!
then we nua somemore. or rather..they nua-ed while i typed my stuff which got many curious glances. LOL. e funniest was jj who kept smiling at my screen. he was super amused. i think jj was crazy yest. LOL!!! he was crazier than e ritch who as crazy today. anyway...after much typing and bbqing...i gave up on bbq-ing le and decided to just type. lucky for me, jason, yx, den came with e marshmallows and robz bbq-ed them for me. YEA!!! i love bbq-ed marshmallows. somemore yx bought those with choc filling inside. LOL!! yx loves marshmallows too..we have gd taste! YEA. finally after much eating...and typing..i finished!!!!
then we played stupid games like san-lian-pai. papabird noes e chim-est chi words and kai is super gd at guessing. sockl is as bad as ever. LOL!! cannot even guess zhu ba jie lahz. LOL!!! but tt made it even more fun. watching sockl try so hard. anyway i was happy coz i cld dance ard like some crazy person alot during e game. YEA!! then more ppl streamed in and eventually nite fell. then e social workers went home and robz e pig went home too coz he needed his sleep. e rest of us sat ard playing some card game tt i cldn't win...then we went for a walk on e beach. and stood on e beach for 1hr plus. LOL!! nvr even sit down. just stood there walking rubbish abt di tou shes at geylang, modules etc. while jj was so scared of e clouds and e waves?? claiming tt they are freaky/fierce/angry. and we imagined a sad love life for this gal who was sitting alone and staring at her phone most of e time near us. at 5am..we decided tt we are cold enuf for e nite..LOL!! and went to a bench and played zhong ji mi ma. prob was tt yx wldn't lose at e game no matter how we try to sabo her. so i ended up drinking like 3 cups of water. -_-. and yx still din kanna...finally we gave up since most of us had to drink 3/4 cups. so we went back to e rm and discussed philosophy (at 5+am). abt the different dimensions, 2D, 3D, 4D etc and how as a lower dimension i.e. 3D, we cannot see the beings of other dimensions and they may not care abt us at all and we're just pawns perhaps. LOL!! 5am topic. kai, yx and zm then went for breakfast while e rest of us slept. i had a great sleep. LOL. totally knocked out for 3 hrs from 6am to 9am. whilst poor qi who was sharing my bed cldn't sleep. finally we checked out at 10am.
realized tt my days merge into one..but watever...
today:
after checking out, how did i make it home by 1030? magic. LOL. nahz..coz of zm. been awhile since i'm sat in his car. suddenly not used to his style coz used to ritch's style le. zm drives super smooth. he can park his car at say 30km/hr?? and he zoomed into e parking space in a curved manner e other time. i can really rem my amazement. LOL. and he drives at like 110km/hr? like e time when it was raining and visibility was super low and amazingly he drove at like 100km/hr from sch to e centre near clementi central?? no accident. anyway..not used to zm's style le. when he drives into my foyer, no jerks, no stops, no adjustments, just one smooth drive in. LOL. zm is super like a german car. precision. but not used to it le. LOL.
anyway i quickly showered then went to lunch with ritch and ed. and before they appeared, ting called me sobbing...sigh. coz she broke or rather, initiate a break whilst e guy is trying to get her back. after everything he's done. dunno. no comments. LOL.. anyway me and ting agreed to talk more tmr. lunch was so-so lahz...LOL.not tt nice also.must try other stalls next time. then ritch wanted to buy me marshmallows since i did e typing thing at e chalet and he wanted to thank me. and since robz was unusually hostile in his response to free marshmallows tossed at him...we wanted to eat his share. LOL. but no marshmallows at provision shops like duh.
finally we ended up at jem's place and i played e playstation games thingie again. okie lahz..won some, lost some. better than e previous attempt. LOL. then we had a 5hr meeting. which was of coz impt and yepz. and i'm glad tt i came up with a gd idea though it was super freaky tt junli had e exact same idea and e same time. like gosh. LOL. ritch was freaked out but being crazy..he was very supportive of e idea and scolded mab for pointing out poss probs telling her not to shoot it down. and told L who said tt she agrees tt e idea is okie not to say tt it's okie...coz i'll cry. zzzz. LOL. crazy lahz. then we had a super long voting session!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL. thanks to who?! but i dun mind..i got e shirt design that i want. ;).
finally of coz. we rounded off with dinner at cartel and my ride home. e ride's funniest part was of coz e slopes and also e fact tt ritch cldn't find e CTE entrance. LOL. i saw it lahz!!! then i told him abt it then he said 'e other side also have one...it's linked liddat' then he attempts to demostrate how his perceived two entrances which was in opposing directions eventually lead to e same CTE. LOL. so we drove in his perceived direction for awhile. then i tot e landscape looked damn unfamiliar. then i started smiling to myself. LOL!!! then finally ritch asked 'have we been here before?' and i said 'nvr before in our lives' LOL. then we started laughing. super funny. then i said 'it's okie..e ppl behind dunno we're lost' then we giggled like crazy ppl...then we drove somemore. then someone asked 'are we lost??' and i said 'definitely not' and cldn't stop laughing. then we ended up at junction 8 once again (which was where we started from 5mins before e comedy). then someone said 'i think we're lost' then ritch said 'of coz not lahz!! we were just here awhile ago mahz' and i said 'yah..we're not lost. wat're at junction 8'. LOL!!! then we took e CTE route tt i pointed out earlier. -_- *smug* LOL!!!
and of coz we ended with a drive thru e carpark and e driving into e foyer, not smooth, not precise. but fun, funny. =). it's really a different experience tt i'll miss when u're gone.
anyway..tot of e day. coz i heard 'when you say nothing at all' over the radio in e car. i used to believe in it. but really...how do u noe that u really understand wat someone else is thinking exactly if tt person nvr tells u? how wld u noe tt u're right?? at least i wldn't noe.
...
having my caffeine boost now. pushing myself...really really hard.
yest: lunch followed by kbox followed by shopping followed by late dinner. got home at midnight, checked email etc. slept at 2+
today: woke up at 8...meeting in sch. i must have looked tired coz tc was really nice and said tt it must be hard on me sitting on so many committees. LOL. so nice of him. sadly, no mentos as encouragement. going to give tuition later...followed by steamboat with my 'family' coz it's laogong's bday today
tmr: tuition at 11. followed by chalet. during which i prob have to type and sort out PAH stuff and type GC stuff and do FIC budget
2 days later: get out of chalet, go for lunch with ritch and edwin then PAH meeting
3days later: FIC meeting followed by visit to PAH benef.
it feels as if....my engine will splatter and die if i stop even for a second. i may just hibernate for days. i feel like some polar bear. nop...i just feel like hugging a polar bear to sleep. it'll feel so nice and soft. LOL!
let me update abt yest...basically i met grace dear...we went to kbox. then wj came late. and wow. actually wj can sing..he was just humble. LOL. not superb. but one of e better-singing guys i noe in this life. then grace started talking to rubz on e phone and looked sad...so i tot maybe something happened...but apparently grace was sick!! but nvr tell us. ended up..i tried to sing some hokkein lullaby for her coz she wanted to sleep and i tot she was just tired.=(. then we observed e guy singing in e rm oppo us coz he was really emotive and danced every once in a while..LOL!! then i tried to imitate him. then grace still nvr tell us tt she's sick lahz...finally she walked out for a long while...and i sang e duets meant for me and grace dear with wj. LOL!! k ahz...wasn't tt weird after all. then finally!!!! grace dear told us tt she's sick...so we walked her to e cab stand and i waved bye to her. and wj tot i was crazy. can tell tt we really not shou. how can he not noe tt waving happily is e most normal thing tt i do.
anyway...after tt abit weird..coz i usu dun end up alone with wj. luckily!! we had an objective. to buy shaz dear's gift. so we walked ard and to my horror...he noes e boutiques at orchard better than me. -_-. or maybe i just lack sleep. LOL. so we walked and walked and walked. until finally e rest came. at least at e end of e adjustment period...i feel more like wj is a common fren. coz dunno...used to feel that he's more of grace/rubz fren who hangs out with us. LOL!! maybe coz he's a king suan-er but he nvr suan me coz not close mahz. so i suan-ed him quite a bit to break e ice..hohoho.
anyway...finally at 9pm...we went for dinner. at e swensons near heeren. and maybe e rest are right...24hr outlets have slow service since they have all e time in e world. LOL!! but i had a really filling meal once again. bloated. then finally we all went home at like 11+. i was hoping so hard that there's still a bus for me. and i starting imagining wat i will do if there's no bus. LOL! and k ahz...bus came after an eternity of waiting.
and guess wat..my laptop soundcard is okie once again. erratic, unpredictable, i feel like killing it for its tantrums. but wat can i do except feel glad tt it's back and continue loving it? and hope that it doesn't decide to die on me again. of coz i can enjoy the glorious music now tt it's back. love-hate relationship really. reminds me of someone. but of coz i wld still prefer a on-off relationship with my soundcard than one tt is completely dead.
...
another packed day. after days like yest and today...i tend to look back at e end of e day, feel like e day lasted a yr..and wonder why i am still alive and not dead from overwork. but i still feel a sense of accomplishment.
today i.....
10 to 2.
woke up early...smsed ritch e pig whom i was supposed to call at 11. i waited. and waited til 1130. then k ahz...decided to go shower. finally he replied tt pig!! and we ended up at kopitiam drinking coke and ice lemon tea. not hard to guess who drank wat. we forever drink e same thing. anyway we had a meeting/bitching session/discovery session. coz we realized tt he can use his home wireless at e kopitiam...LOL!! and i realized tt there was this auntie at e adjacent table smiling at us. and there was this kid who did a scary face at ritch. (at least i got smiles). and yepz. i'm sure we will pull thru this obstacle since it seemed as if e universe conspired for u to receive the news early yah? jiayou!!
2.30 till 515
then i went for tuition with S. happy tt she's improving really well. and she told me tt she got highest in e lvl for her last test. made me happy. since she was originally highest at e end of sec 3 anyway. who ask her sack me then fail since then and hit e all-time low of zero and got scolded by e principal. but she's back. coolz.
545 til 6
went to sch...and saw tt it was quite empty. sad rite?? after exams...go back on labour day. it's like a double hol. but i realized e pattern. i'm always busy on labour day every yr. i grabbed my mountain of fax...and put them into a file and cheonged home.
630
