The End Is Where We Begin

We had our final closure a few hours ago- over sashimi, sushi and too-much-jap food at H.anabi. We reminisced good times: Aussie, Semis, Random bimbo moments; laughed over classic scenarios; talked about our future: Club season, Winter League (so long more), graduation (for some), work, post-season-life.

As cheesy as it is, with the end of this season, a new one awaits us. First it's club, then it's S.Unig again. This team is awesome, and I'm really sad to let it go. That as always, after each season we part and take separate paths: Syl and Ek concentrating on Fypee, Juniors still learning the art of the game, some taking time off to do something else meaningful in life, others going back to their real jobs: being a girlfriend, full-time sailor, full-time soccer player, IAstudent (me!).

Team session always heals. I actually felt more energetic than I usually do after work. =) CaptainEK and I got Mvp which made the season a whole lot more meaningful.

I still can't believe season's over ALREADY.

Anyhow, after dinner, we split up. Five of us detoured to Macs and played some card game with cows. Apparently, if you owe something to anyone sitting at the table, you'll have bad luck and lose. Tested and proven; Ek lost the first round (cos she owed me moolah for drinks). So she paid and I then owe her 5cents change. Then I lost all the subsequent rounds! >=(

Was never that superstitious but I better start believing. :( It's not a coincidence.

On a sidenote: S came down to work for lunch today! (: With a bouquet of roses in hand. (I insist they look identical to the bouquet from last year but he begs to differ, hmm) And I stole an orange care bear from AwPap's car. =)

Then over team dinner, Baby gave me a box of self-made pineapple tarts and almond cookies she baked with Elepig(: It even has "XOXO" written on it. :D

Thank you! I feel so loved. =)

Humble Beginnings

****

happy birthday s.

+ First week of work has been rather good so far. Yes I ended work at 1130am on Monday, 10am on Tuesday, no work on Wednesday, 130pm on Thursday and 5 on Friday! By right work is 9-6 but I haven't passed my lab test so I can't get started on research.. don't compare.

+ Spent the entire Monday hanging around N.US - from biz canteen to arts canteen to E.usoff hall to Science canteen, then headed down to S.unset way for ice cream with Yanns only to find out... Dailyscoop is closed (!!!) and so is buttercorn (or is it buttercream? I can't remember!)

+ Surprise xlb buffet on Tues for S where I had to make do with using my knitted sweater as a blindfold, and awpapa totally failed as a cab driver.

+ Then k.uishimbo for lunch on Wed after htht with Jiel, Carcar and Angiebff.

+ Then timbre on Wed night to further celebrate S birthday and welcome Tiancai back! :D "Congratulations on dating a 'Wondergirl'!"

+ First IVPee game on Thursday against NYPee. Went fine, but we can be better. 12-0 to us.

+ Caught "It's Complicated" just now and I like how it's a happy unhappy-ending.

Bella.

I am...

panic attacking for the second time for Wednesday's paper.

BUT : I have a paper tomorrow so there should be no reason for me to neglect it.

S says I should stop thinking about it so I've kept all the notes, past year papers, tutorials, and everything that reminds me of Advanced Materials Processing in a file and hid it under my table.

Spent the weekend in hall, except Friday night and the first half of Saturday.

Surprised Seef over breakf with the other 4 of Bao (sorry you couldn't be there Sheryl!) to celebrate her 21st one day early. (:

So I'm finally starting exams tomorrow! (: About time, when people around me are beginning to E-N-D. :( 7dec sounds so far away, but shall not complain about the time I have on hand to use for revision! (:

Need to go for a run soon. Getting oversized.

My Favourite Hello.

A Saturday ago, we had the first trials for the Summer Season.

Then rushed down to the Zoo where it was flooded with lotsa people.

Made our way through the 6.2km half jogging, half walking. We took lotsa silly pictures, made silly faces (and noises) and said silly things.

Lightbulb(ed) over dinner then headed down for the Surprise Farewell Party for Liangshit. (Whom we said our bittersweet goodbyes to on Tuesday) They gave themselves away quite a few times yet the silly boy didn't know anything at all. (:

Caught up with ex friends, ex lovers, and still-friends. And got a lift home.

*****

This Saturday, it was peaceful and quiet. No more drama, no more trauma.

Simple yet supreme(:

We had our typical weekend morning breakfast, then headed to Turf for our opening game. Which was unfortunately against our own Senior Team. We lost miserably, 11-2. Needless to say. =(

Headed to R.afflescity to get Helium Balloons :D Very very pretty(:

And waited close to 30mins for a stupid bus and watched rugby.

Coincidentally, his number was 11 that game(:

Chompchomp for dinner :D and Ben.jaminButton which I think is overrated. (:

Anyway, call me sadistic but I think I secretly like Surprises-gone-wrong.

Not that it is any funny how something you've planned goes haywire,

just that it leaves a stronger impression and lingers around your memory longer.

Just like the semianonymous flowers. (: Haha. Thank you. (:

Eggcited But Scared.

OMG MY THUMB/PALM IS FUCKING GROSS.

It looks like a chicken drumstick/pregnant fish/pigeon leg.

Yeah you get the idea. Gross shit.

And I was forced to train in slippers and a swollen thumb yesterday.

@$)(%^*$%^&^%&*^&

But S's birthday surprise went pretty ohhhkayy considering the few hiccups,

and we couldn't prawn cos it was damn crowded :( But nvm, next time.

Here I am now, sipping Peach Red Tea with Pearls AND Jelly so I get quite a mouthful each 'sip', with less than 24 hours to go. :( Back to packing, then I guess? SULKS

PS: My jersey is too big for me but I got my 11 so who cares :D
