haven't posted since last wk. ok... well contrary to last week this week is one heck of a week. actually this week passed quite slowly i felt. like ever since choral night, 2 weeks have passed but quite alot of things have been done actually. and the freaking bad thing is, i think i'm really losing my nice nice voice ok. like i sound ok when i talk but i can't hit high notes! ever since choral night and i think cheering made it worse. i so dun wanna lose it permanently. SUNDAY-18/11went to escape after youth, finally. it was open but then some rides, the nice ones, were closed for maintenance. and if some rides were closed then actually there's nothing much there cos there's so limited rides there. and there were few ppl only, compared to the no. of ppl who wanted to go initially. we basically sat everything, ok for the ppl who came early (lingo amelia steph) but i didn't sit wet and wild cos it started to rain! oh and amazingly, bimbos could drive a go-kart! and amelia who's usually very pro in everything and i thought she could drive kept banging into ppl. haha. looks can be deceiving. actually all the rides are really mild, even the invertor which turns you upside down. after the second round or so i didn't really feel very scared. and the sao xing haunted house which had no live ghosts at all and then the normal rides which bring you round and round and you just admire scenery kind of thing. haha. and when it started to rain we went to play the carnival games. tried our luck at the shooting the ring at the bottle one cos it had a very cute dolphin toy there but apparently it was impossible. and then watched the horse-racing one and then sandy won this purple crayon toy at the water gun station which got steph really mad cos she could have won it. she could have actually. so... rainrainrain then we got wet being sheltered under a tiny umbrella, took the shuttle bus to mrt, bought sherm's present at white sands and then went home. went to j8, bought mos burger, went home, bathe, eat, watch tv, sleep. TUESDAY-20/11we had pre-cheering session to learn all school cheers, council cheers and song. and then after that i rushed back home, hastily last minute packed my bag and rushed out of the house again for cca grad night. to parsir ris. AGAIN. but in the end i didn't use like half of what i packed. anyway grad night was FUN! and it was more fun than class chalet actually. ok it's not very nice to say that but then cos the seniors got everything planned out, we played cards, monopoly, wacko, barbequed, snacked. so it was like every minute you got something to do. and FINALLY ok since after exams i've been asking ppl to play bridge with me and then nobody knew how to play, i got to play round after round of bridge! HAHA. barbeque was GOOD. ok partly because we were just eating and the sec3s were barbequeing, but then the food that they barbecued was good, much better than our class' failed nuggets and erm... burnt ones. but then of course it was nice fanning like crazy during class chalet. BUT anw, this time i ate more than class chalet and played bridge with sec4s! cos i was so bridge-deprived. and then later we went up to the room, slacked somemore, played monopoly... blah. then we had the hand over ceremony. oh and it wasn't as serious and emotional like last year's. each batch had to give the sec4s a batch gift. so it was like a nice tee with the word mercury for van, a nice wallet for sherm, a nice fish necklace for limyu and a pink and white striped bikini for jessie! HAHA. and it was bought on that day cos apparently it was last minute. so it was funny. handover was nice with the candles and all and the sec3s made a very nice booklet thing for the sec4s with photos and all. so sweet! then the speeches by everybody and stuff like that. then after that we walked eiffel to watsons outside the chalet, got caught in the rain... then when it started to get late everybody started going home and the stayover ppl who were not gna sleep were playing monopoly. and i was winning!!! until cheryl paid yingci $11000 for her nassim house. then we went out to the beach at 3+am, walked around, got our slippers soaked in mud, slacked abit then when back. and this time, no more ghostly encounters like class chalet. everybody was kind of dead when we went back to the room and started sleeping. WEDNESDAY-21/11woke up at 7+ and realised only the sec1s who apparently didn't sleep at all had gone out for breakfast and steph was the only one awake by then. the rest were still sleeping and so the whole room was like dark and quiet and depressing. so me and steph went out to get some fresh air. then slacked and random talk... until about 9+ we got this call saying we had to check out by 1030 and most of the ppl haven't got out of bed yet. so woke everyone up and made a fairly fast cleanup and check out. so in the end, the morning was quite useless, like class chalet. went to white sands after that to lunch and vanessa was scaring us about OBS. i realise i'm gonna face alot of physical stuff starting from council camp to OBS... and i'm not exactly fit ok. then slept on the mrt to city hall... went with cheryl to van's house where she blurted out chunks of bsp stuff which didn't really make sense to me. chinese politics and modern history... something i will lose interest in quite immediately. and cheryl was also blurting out weird chinese names and words. oh mann... i realise i'm actually quite limited in knowledge. haha. and i realised vanessa is a very disciplined and hardworking and guai person. makes me feel guilty...TODAY-23/11DEAD tired after today. realised that my arms were totally weak already. council cheering session was a whole wake-up call... i mean i expected that the seniors would be harsh but then it was tough, physically. i mean i'm not the morning person who can get physical in the morning but at least it was something that i cannot forget. council's gonna be tough and i think it's gonna be tougher next year when we really start council work together with school and cca. it's gonna be worse than this. and council camp will be worse as well. just hope i can pull through and become a stronger person. then after cheering session had cca immediately. which meant warm ups stretching yoga, some short device work and it required us to lift our hands for a long long time... so which meant i was working out the WHOLE day. ok until 3 that is. of course cca is easier than council. then went to eat lunch and talked and went home. sweated the whole day, was dirty and smelly... and i slapped my thighs until the capillaries broke. its gross. but i think most of my council batchmates had the same problem. repurcussions of cheering. right... clean and nice. all ready to indulge in some tv and sleep. yay... shiyun.
