this blog is stale stale stale. and its gonna get worse cos school is starting and hols are ending. boo. belated christmas and a happy new year's eve! ok so it isn't that happy. and i dun want to start school cos its like starting the cycle all over again. stress is back! and probably bigger. i hope they don't do any teaching for the 1st wk cos theres like cca concert and sec1 orientation and i need time for class bonding!!! i have only like 2 actual days to class bond on the first wk of school. oh wow... 312 do me proud! and i'm praying for GOOD teachers. i dun mind if they're abit quirky but spare me the boring old normal ones. esp for lit. i want good teachers.i realise my personality is quite split in some ways. well i guess it depends on who is it. 3rd lang class merged! and yay its a jap tcher. like born and bred in japan. i suppose its a female. ok i think. setsuko hagimoto. girl? guy? oh well so long as he or she keeps my 3rd lang flame burning bright. ok i'm LATE. i realised. and countdown today? i dunno... see first. if there's actually ppl going. haha. how many failed attempts to meet up have we done? shiyun.belongs to 312'08 in 2 days time.

short post. hehe. no time... sry.council camp! yes the seniors were right i guess. it was tiring but after camp you'll start missing it. a really different experience from all other camps. lots of PT and cheering but good bonding time! right. well, i will see how i go along in my council term next year and jiayou jiayou jiayou! i know i have all my council mates alongside with me. today got back to cca realised i had to catch up a bit. but anw saw lots of p6-ers today buying books and it was like nice to know you're a senior! =) well we'll all be juniors and seniors in our whole life so... haha. and i'm currently quite good now cos i just finished my stupid chinese book review thingy... and it was like write abit then think and think and think, then write abit again, then think again. wrote quite alot la but didn't think it was VERY good. well... reminiscing hokkaido, council camp, 203... things will be quite different come next year... lots of things to do and manage. oh well... its just not very fun to adapt to another kind of situation like sec1. haha. but oh well... i'll get along. =)christmas christmas christmas. its like all the festive seasons are here again and school's reopening soon. there's always this bittersweet feeling you'll get at this time. sighhh. haven't packed my sec2 stuff to make way for new books. and talk about studying...

HELLO i'm back after weeks of MIA. hokkaido was great! ok so it wasn't the best but it's always gd to get out of the country. not gna write much anw...
DAY ONE:
travel travel travel. the plane had very few nice movies to watch anw so i was basically playing games or sleeping throughout.
DAY TWO:
sapporo. basically alot of sights to see... still wasn't snowing yet but the places we went were very pretty and nice... yeah. salmon aquarium, chocolate factory... i can't rmb. we had hotpot! with diff kinds of seafood. like scallop and sea urchin RAW. very very good.
DAY THREE:
asahikawa. more sights. and this time we saw snow! very nice night atmosphere.
DAY FOUR:
went sledding. ok the very cheap one cos no one knew how to ski and we had very little time. so sad. i'm gna learn skiing. soon.
DAY FIVE:
sat the snow automobile. which was fun but not thrilling. and they said only ppl over 16 can drive but i drove anyway. illegally. and the mountain area weren't that high and dangerous so half of the journey i thought it was just a trial run. but still fun. and i met yi ming there. sososo coincidentally. and we had teppanyaki. very very oily.
DAY SIX:
shopping like crazy. scoured the streets of sapporo, bought a whole lot of goodies. ate ramen.
DAY SEVEN:
woke up at 4.30 to rush to the airport in freezing weather... yeah. travel back.
ok a highly brief account. i really dun mind going back to japan anytime. or mebbi its bcos learning the language makes you very very interested in the whole country. it's nice cos even in the bus i was trying to make out signs and words in jap. and try to understand japanese shows in the hotel tv. and trying to communicate with ppl when shopping. it's FUN and i'm quite sure i'll go there again. so it was a nice trip, i mean my tour group was quite interesting in a way and the tour guide talked alot which was good in some way cos i had interest in it and with my family and my neighbours it was quite fun.
i'm going back to japan soon. and i'm gonna learn my jap till it's fluent and good. i realised it's something i really want.
ok so back to reality. and i realise i have alot alot of things to do. and i get stressed. even before i reached changi airport.
1. i haven't bought my stuff for council camp
2. i haven't really memorised stuff for council camp
3. i haven't even started my chinese essay
4. i haven't finished my CAP portfolio
5. i haven't packed all my sec2 stuff and get ready for next year
6. i'm still in hokkaido mood.
7. i'm getting fat from all the food in hokkaido. and guess what? council camp's gna be physical.
8. it's 2 and a half weeks to school reopen.
guess i idled my holiday days away...
time to get cracking.
and i'm hoping next year won't be too much for me.
