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. =)

Imma Mommy Over You!

Some doors when closed, will never open again.

Maybe you won't even be able to find that same door a second time.

Rather brain dead but life has been good.

It has been tiring. =)

{edit}

Wed: Caught up with Ken Cow Moo and AndreaLesbo at SunsetGrill. It was a disappointment- they forgot A's orders despite a million reminders, got our orders wrong, and the food wasn't that fab either. =( It was only the company that made up for everything gone wrong.

Awesome to see these two after so long, Hongrui you're missed much!

Then we wanted to take pictures with the pretty airplanes but got chased by the security guard. Mmmmgrumbles.

Oh yes and Lindt chocs from Moo with love from France! Favourite! :D

Comeback Kings

I get a week off work this week! Not because I'm trying to skive, but because the equipments aren't available so there's nothing to be done anyway.

I have to backtrack more than a week of events and activities, kinda hard for me to pen them down now actually.

I'm finally coming to terms that season is over; we had an awesome preseason leading up to IVPee and now it's hard to say goodbye. The Aussie trip definitely benefitted us, both in terms of game sense and team bonding. After 11 days, we came back a completely transformed team- we were closer, and stronger.

"Imagine you're in Heaven and you're playing touch." - that's what Coach said before every game in OZ. We were stressless, fearless, got thrased upside down. But we always picked ourselves up and hung on for our lives (we were only playing with 11)

And as always, by tradition, the best games are not caught on camera.

We lost IVPee, but this season was AWESOME. It barely felt like we did, though yes the colour of our medal reflects the team standing. I wasn't upset when the final whistle went- it didn't feel like we lost. Of course there was a tinge of disappointment- I could hardly believe that we lost but we never gave up and I'm so proud of ourselves.

A friend labelled us the "King of Comebacks" after what happened in both semis and finals. In Semis we were down 2-0, then caught up 2-1, equalized 2-2, down 3-2 and eventually equalised 3-3 just before the hooter went. Sudden death til 3v3 and we proceeded to finals. It wasn't a smooth ride up, but we made it.

Then Finals: we were 2-0 down by first half, 3-0 down just as the second half started, then caught back up 3-3. We lost sudden death upon the first tap though. Guess you can never be lucky a second consecutive time.

I told the team I was proud of them; during S.unig we were intimidated and under too much pressure and fear. This time, we played fearlessly, and proven to be mentally strong. S said it doesn't feel like we lost cos we played like a champion team (finally), and I guess he's right.

=)

Apart from Ivpee, I've been spending too much time in Hall. Am officially roomless after the new roomie shifted in last night. Due to all the IH track/road relay (dreads) training, am back with lotsa time to waste.

Hence, I've been room hopping! Attended BabyJ's elective with her on Monday cos I was bored shit, and spend lotsa nights with the successor over ipod games (Rotten apples!!)

Yesterday: Lunch with one of my favourite couples! G.ibby and S.iying at H.all13 (: then wasted time at N.IE library helping with English homework: simple present tense, perfective, progressive, active passive voice, Modal: degree of possibility, statement about the future.

Never knew English could be harder than it already is. =)

Dinnered with Penguin and the Loomies for the last time yesterday over Pizza and chicken wings =) Yums. Took lotsa pictures with the Blackbird =) I've yet to see the first roll of film and I'm already excited about developing my second roll! (:

Need to head down to the Bestie's soon to scan the pictures =)

Went down to Terminal1 to send our dearest CANG SANG the fish aka wongjingyu aka Federer's-nanny-to-be while she departs to the Land of Federer (Swiss!) (:

It was a 1am flight but TEAM LOVE > midnight cab fare so most of us went down anyhow =) Also celebrated Buddy Briggy's birthday while we were there. Team love is the best =)

Then 11 of us squeezed into a van as we embarked on the long journey back from ChangiAirport to PulauNtu. =( It was an achievement. (Y)

Dearest Road Rice also found out her MRI results yesterday: Complete ACL tear and partial MCL tear. Op to be done in March after 6 weeks of intense physio. Fat hugs for you dearest! Stay strong and I'll be here for you =)

Bring A Friend

I finally made it for service this morning after many, many months.

With trainings, leagues, etc on Saturdays, it's impossible to go for Youth so 11am is the next alternative and yes I got my fat ass down today! =)

10 of us had lunch together and we had to open up two tables so that we can sit comfortably and ordered a whole duck to share. Yums =)

And just as I headed home, I got a text to head down for "Bring-A-Friend" Day.

Hmmm, I scrapped initial plans to snooze and left for LowerDeltaRoad to a gathering where I only know ONE person (My #8 successor, haha)

Phil so brave.

Of course, I felt awkward and out of place but I guess it got better as it went.

Plus, there was awesome cheesecake to make up for it so yay =)

******

Yesterday:

W.ANTOKS TRAINING!! (: As much as I was lonely without my fellow teammies, it was good to be back. (: Esp to see Captain Khoo! :D

We trained for almost 4 hours under the freaking hot sun, and I left my water bottle there :( :( :(

So Ro and I headed down to get KOI to reward ourselves after training, and I was supposed to head down to Yck from Amk.

Thought I'd take a bus with her though it's just one stop away and saw that 136 will pass by Yck.

Very very long later, I was still travelling on the bus, passing by Kovan and Hougang, I really really needed to pee. Held it in thinking I'd reach soon but eventually realised: I AM ON THE WRONG BUS.

So I spotted an LRT station and quickly alighted. NO TOILET AT THE STATION. :(

And great, I'm stranded somewhere in Sengkang.

Walked towards the bright lights and still couldn't find a washroom anywhere. That was when I had half a mind to just pee at the bushes. But I saw CIVILISATION so I headed towards it. After climbing up and down a few times, I finally found the toilet which the security guard pointed out to me.

Walked to the nearest bus stop (which wasn't exactly near btw) and saw that I've a direct bus home. So I ditched plans to yck and waited for my bus home.

Apparently, 136 goes to yio chu kang ROAD aka Sgoon stadium, not yck. =(

And the best part is: 2.5 hours after leaving Amk, I still wasn't at Yck but S didn't find it weird at all. Texted 4 times and gave a missed call but his phone's screwed so he didn't check?

Boohoo. Mega upset. :(

You're The Direction I follow To Get Home

1)WORK

IA this week's been goodie goodie. (:

Finally starting on experiments: sample prep, gold deposition (unfortunately, I don't have access to the Au otherwise I could steal some and we could all be rich!), lspr measurements, bilayer formation and next week, more molecular testing, more layer by layer depositions and even SEM training!

Okayyyy, I know I sound like a complete nerd now. But I really like it!

I've been working OT the past two days and yes, I've been complaining (though I don't quite deserve to cos I have DAMN slack days too). Just unlucky the OT falls on days I have a tight after-work schedule (non-leisure related)

Lunch breaks have also been awesome with my aN-yoU-aSs pallies, with fellow course mates and the lonely Hub, with my dearest OG mate ongjunx(: , getting used to the way around campus and eating out of school.

Despite the reallyreallyreeeaaalllly low pay, I'm pretty glad I was granted my first choice company. When I'm bored or waiting for results, I can just head over to the Computer Room and I'll always find someone there, or head down to L3 library and disturb Ah Chu. =)

Today, Junx came over while taking a break from his Fyp report and I was showing him the experiment. Also taught him how to use O.rigin to smooth curves (which he still doesn't know how to do after 1 year in Im.re) and he is impressed by me! :D Yay. I also hit my head against a cabinet which has never happened in the past few days but it had to happen when he was around.

J: "Don't worry, I won't tell G you knock your head."

Me: "If you tell her, I'm gonna ask her to 'boxbox' you!!!!"

=)

I win. Heh

2) IVPee

Only 1 game this week instead of the supposed two. Tuesday was our second game against SPee. Anyway, just as I thought I was doing fine, I got sat out TWICE in one game. Apparently I "needed to get out for a while before more possession lost or losing you (me) altogether". In other words, I was being destructive then self destructive/destructed.

We won anyway, 6-2.

Thanks Sugar Fairy for running down from N.us to watch the game! =)

We also caught IVPee Bball girls semis on Tuesday after our game. It was an extremely exciting nerve-wrecking one between us and aN-yoU-aS. From trailing by a-few-points, we caught up to a draw, then to a lead, then gave away free throws and the match ended with a draw. (The coaches of the opposition were so fierce, they even threatened the officials)

So it was extra time of 5 mins where we had a good lead initially until opposition caught up and the aN-Tee-yoU team had to work extra hard to take the lead again.

Eventually we won by two points and it was an awesome, awesome feeling. Plus seeing our fellow (ex) teammie playing so well, leading her team and scoring- we were so proud of her =)

So yesterday was the finals, which we rushed down after training. We were already trailing by a bit, but the bball girls kept trying to catch up. Each time they narrowed the gap, an unexpected (but freaking accurate) 3 point shot will come from the aI-Tee-E girls.

There was a period of time the aN-Tee-yoU team was ON FIRE but it wasn't enough. :(

We lost in the end, by 4 points ( I think?) Cyn still played awesome but it was really sad to see her cry :( She didn't cry when we lost S.UniG and she told us to be strong. So it was really saddd =((

3) FOOD

Been eating way too much fast food, Macs after watching bball on Tues (twister friezzz!), BurgerKing on Thurs and Macs again todayyyyy! :\ Had bubble t on Wed too, and a major frogurt craving due to the insane sun. The BenJerry's at Vivo's closed for renovation too. :(

4) MISC

Work ended early on Monday so I went to fix the oh-so-terrible hair of mine (I snipped my own hair and it was hideous).

Caught Blindside on Wed with liangshit my Curly Hair Friend after lunch with Ahgong and Yanns in campus. =) The show's really really good. =) We both enjoyed it. Shopped for Ahgong's farewell gift before heading down to his place for the (not-so-)surprise farewell party. (:

what will I do without you, Ah gong.

Have a safe flight to London.

Hello from eem-Ray

Nothing to do til 330pm..
Alviniaowyong where are you.

Scissorhand.

More pictures from Aussie(:

Feeding the ONLY white Roo in the zoo, in the rain (explains the Umbrella).

FYI, it DID eat from my hand! (:

Beddie XP and I + Intruder Alisa in the oh-so-messy room on the last day!

It's v messy, I know.

Players' Player ball! :D :D

Thank you all (:

At Dreamworld while queueing for Cyclone, it was damn gooooood! :D

Would've sat again if not for the infinitely long q. :(

Team picture at C.oomera Comets playing ground.

Halfway through the game, the kangaroos from the other side of the field just RANNN across our playing field! (: (: It was beautiful.

**************************

So anyway. I have cut my hair! Both fringe and hair after yesterday's disastrous trial with the scissors in my own hands. Muahaha.

It is still long enough to be tied for IVPee but can't wait to chop it off after season =)

Lab test today was pretty easy, besides the open discussion we had among ourselves, we had another one WITH the coordinator before submission. Teehee.

Ended work at 2pm today (started at 11?) but today marks the last of my half-day-work life.

Finally get to start work in lab and I'm excited! (:

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.

Backdated o9.

So that was picture post of Aussie,

figured it'd be better if I posted a separate entry on the trip! :D

Before Aussie, here's how Christmas went:

We had team bbq steamboat on 23rd dec where the theme was "Different persona":

We had lady gaga, jason mraz, powerpuff girls, popeye and olive, bella swan, amywinehouse, william hung, ...

Was complete fun and M-E-S-S.

We also had gift exchanges(: Where I got buddy brig's starbucks bottle! :D

We ate from lunch til dinner then I left for PRAWNING! (: (: Favourite activity with my favourite people! We had 3 rods (compared to 2 last time) and caught much much less. :( Business was poor.

My giftor was Chong(: As I suspected! Hehehe. I got an orange laptop sleeve which "exceeded budget" (: Very nice. My giftee Wenlong didn't come :( We prawned and ate til 5ish despite Wayne's whining and protest to leave early.

By the time I got back to hall and showered, it was already 6am and I could barely sleep and I went for training at 9am like a walking zombie. :(

Lunched and packed and headed home, then dinner at a family friend's place of S and midnight mass. Concussed and met Yanns and Mal for brunch on Christmas day(:

Goodies from Japan courtesy of Ahgong! :D

Then S and I caught SherlockHolmes with his parents and got conned! We parked at this place that cost $2/entry and an additional $20 for parking after 1030. We debated before we entered and thought the surcharge was if you entered after 1030 so we parked there anyhow.

Left the carkpark at 1040pm a grand total of $22 was deducted from the cashcard.

So the entire movie costs $10 x 4 + $1 booking fee + $22 parking. Gasp.

Had BCM @ thomson where the NUSBFF cycled out to meet us for a catchup(: Whee.

Then prawning with awpapa, kin & their gfs. (:

S caught his first prawn and it was hugeeeeeeeee.

We were on a roll that night, caught too many (more than 50, lost count along the way) and they were huge. (:

Contrary to that night I went with Trojan.

Went back to school the next morning specially for capts ball then packed and left for home after camera shopping with Gdine. (:

Final training on Monday before we left for Aussie, by the time we settled our training gear and souvenirs it was already 3pm! :(

Then it started raining and I couldn't leave for home.

Met S much later that night, we went to amk with the intention of having yummy bryani but it was closed by then. So I settled for shihlin chicken and he, Chicken rice. Not forgetting.. KOIII :D :D The money changer was also closed by the time we got there so we headed to xiao3 in4 du4 instead to get more aussie dollahs. Slightly scary with the crowd plus I was alone for a while. :(

Then headed home to continue packing for the longawaited trippp! :D

Oh, we also celebrated Mommy's bday and Christmas on 19dec at our favourite SoupRestaurant!

Aussie Oi.

I am too lazy to rearrange the pictures so here goes:

Our hostel.

Token of appreciation from Redcliffe Touch.

Huge koala display at Brisbane airport before departure.

Finally some rice and asian food after 23849053 days of bread and wraps and fried stuff!

We went to a famous jetty and beach.

Insane shopping at Harbourtown Goldcoast and Sporty's warehouse where we bought.....

TOUCH SHOESSSSSS :D

At chinatown where we stood infront of a CCTV of a bank and took picture of ourselves.

Zoooooo!

This was how close the roos were(:

Mama koala and baby koala!

On top Mt Coot-tha where we could overlook the whole Brisbane.

I did the dumbest thing today,

of which I regretted the split second I acted upon my instinct.

Wanted to hide but one person can never hide another person unless you're S.

So yup, made one of the worst decisions in my life by being un-antisocial for probably the first time ever.

Christmas is sooo near already but I'm not ready to live past December. :(

Sometimes,
I tend to give up on a friendship.

There are many reasons why I do.

Sometimes they're not the best decision I make,

sometimes these decisions protect ourselves from future disappointments.

Sometimes, I regret.

Sometimes, I stop myself before it's too late.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Maybe it isn't worth letting go.

After all, I've always had faith that we're friends on a bigger basis than just _______.

-

Down with stomach flu.

Either pancakes/meatballs at I.kea,

okonoyami at S.hokudo,

or Merlionster from Ben&Jerry's killed me.

ZZZZ.

But anyhow, Feng yun was a terrible, terrible movie.

And Trojan gathering was awesome, as always.

And and, I'm glad S is back(:

Haven't been hitting this space cos lately I summarise my days into a 140characters long phrase.

Exams are finally over after a good month (sorta) and the December madness is slowly kicking in.
With interhall, interschool, ivptrainings, w.antoks sessions.. Ooooh, I can foresee lotsa sun balls and grass (:

Last Thursday during training we saw double rainbows. A mommy rainbow formed above a baby one. And they were both full rainbows.
So beautiful (:

Then we headed to sunsetway for dinner and dessert(: dessert was the best! (:
Celebrated aw papa's bday when I got back(:

Attended the pseudo wedding 21st bday party of sheryl's: Disney ballroom themed where she looked like a bride (:
Missed the real wedding on Sunday afternoon :(
Had koi therapy on sat(: hazelnut milk teaaaa!

After paper we lunched over xiao long bao where chong couldn't get over the last paper :(
Caught new moon, same time same place with sy & gibs.

Yesterday was an awesome day out with the Bestie!
We lunched and had lotsa fun with blackbird!!!!!!
Can't wait to finish the roll of film so I can get it developed(:
Excitingggg(: we had u.dders(:
Then some insane team moments over dinner an uncle ringo's funfair.
Hilarious vids to be uploaded(:

Suppered last night too (my metabolism after trng scares me) : ate curry chicken + bread and fried wantons(:

Today: caught the dumbest movie ever: coupleretreat. I felt so miserable and uncomfortable >=(

Brisbane's also confirmed!!! 29dec to 9jan (:
Need to start saving :(

EXAMS SHOULD NEVER EAT INTO DECEMBER.

LIKE THEY DON'T EAT INTO MAY.

COS DECEMBER = CHRISTMAS = HOLIDAY

AND MAY = LABOUR DAY = HOLIDAY.

SIANSATION.

WAS SO UPSET YESTERDAY I WENT OUT THE WHOLE DAY TO SLACK, REST, RELAX, RECUPERATE, RECHARGE, WHATEVER.

Caught 2012 and it was awesome.

Down.

I'm sorry I always let you down. :(

See you after 10 December.

Seventh Dec.

Two papers down(:

Three more to go.

Am almost half way there, but the most dreadful paper is over.

Didn't have the best of a start to the exams marathon but I'm glad I've finally started.

And a long way to go before the end.

Have finally fallen sick and spent half of ystday in bed to nurse the headache and flu. Boohooo.

Still feeling woozy and out of place today despite taking a nap.

Thought EK's call was my alarm and accidentally rejected it.

I only have 4 days to study 2 modules (an elective and 1 4AU core paper) so I should not be rewarding myself with too long a break like my peers are.

:(

So long.

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.

I am falling sick.

All this time.

Blame it on the changes

Friday, the 13th.

Everything happens for a reason.

Thought I'd meet the Bestie for supper so I didn't want to ask the CarameloFrappo to accompany me study so I didn't go down to study cos I don't like being alone. So I came online to get some company and listen to music and do work in Brother's room.

Company: checked.
Music: checked.
Do work: Unchecked.

Not only did I not get any work done, I also dug my own pathway to find my own grave.
If only something which happened in the previous string of events didn't occur I wouldn't be where I am now.
You're not the only one who knows how to avoid and run away from reality you don't want to face,
so do I. I just don't cos it comes back to haunt you anyway.


So this tallies with how I feel tonight:

I never needed you to be strong
I never needed you for pointing out my wrongs
I never needed pain, I never needed strain
My love for you was strong enough, you should have known

I never needed you for judgements
I never needed you to question what I spent
I never asked for help, I take care of myself
I don't know why you think you gotta hold on me

And it's a little late for conversations
There isn't anything for you to say
And my eyes hurt, hands shiver,
So look at me and listen to me
Because

I don't want to stay another minute
I don't want you
to say a single word
Hush hush, hush hush
There is no other way, I get
the final say because
I don't want to do this any longer
I don't want you, there's nothing left to say
Hush hush, hush hush
I've already spoken, our love is broken
Baby hush hush

I never needed your corrections
On everything from how I act to what I say
I never needed words, I never needed hurt
I never needed you to be there every day

I'm sorry for the way I let go
On everything I wanted when you came
along
But I ain't never beatin', broken not defeated
I know next to you
is not where I belong

What a wet Friday the 13th.
Didn't realise it til G mentioned it halfway into the day.

Closure

End of Winter League 2009.

Time to retire my boots and embrace the books.

its so cold im getting goosebumps

and my womb is contracting. :(

Relak One Corner.

Today, I'm gonna talk about two things:

1. Love
2. Bimbotic Moments

Ok firstly: Love.

It's constantly on the tip of our tongue. Just over supper last Friday, Mamadao was sharing how her friend told her she rather love her other half more than he loves her.

That's cos you can't choose who to love you, but you can choose who to love.

Which is a very self sacrificial thinking in my opinion. Definitely not something wrong with that thinking, but how often do you hear that?

Which reminded me about what I read weeks back on FML:

"The man who loves me the most, the man I love, and my husband are 3 completely different people."

Sometimes routine, and dependence just leads to the skewed conception of love. It's scary how you've become so accustomed and used to things that you're unwilling to break apart from it though you may not happy.

------------------------------------------

The second thing: about Bimbo moments.

Ok for the sake of everybody, I shall leave it anonymous.

Today, we were talking about the Monopolygame thingy happening at Macs and how there is only 1 SentosaCove available (which allows you to win 50 000$!)

So person A was saying how we can actually sell the title deed and make a profit out of it.

Initially we thought of selling it for $51 000 (and earning $1) and somehow agreed that the profits should be split evenly instead.

Then later a sensible person turned around to ask why we would sell it for $25 000 when the MarinaBay deed was so easily obtainable.

Then we tried very hard to reason him out ........

until we realised we were so so stupid.

Cos since MarinaBay was easily obtainable, you can keep the Sentosacove deed for yourself and claim all 50k instead of splitting it into half with a total stranger.

Haha. We laughed so hard somebody turned as red as a tomato and teared. =)

G: you missed this. Haha

~

Thank you Baby, the cookies are yummehlicious! (:

Now, back to the books.

But tell me how do I get started?

PPS: The terrapin is returned to its owner :( Byebye Ji Lucky!

Goodbye 3005!

Life is.......

hectic these days. I barely get to pause and think about stuff.

Last week, I spent the first half of every day interacting with kids almost a decade younger than me. From tag rubgy, to bowling, rock climbing, vulgarities, flying punches to the face, playing truant ; I have seen almost everything.

Ek and I laugh it off after each day, and we feel really old. Almost 10 years older, yet among them we feel their age. It's like, we've never really grown out of our teenage years..

Rock climbing was super fun though! I climbed til I ached so bad after that. I couldn't write cos my arms were trembling (slightly) so yes, hats off to Ms. KWANJIELING. You're my ouxiang! (: Haha

Over the weekends, I also had two consecutive nights of Steamboat for dinner which was shiok beyond words since the weather was c-c-c-old. (:

After steamboat on Sat with Arthur & Mal, we caught Sister'sKeeper which was really quite sad..... We all expected to cry but the two boys didn't. I didn't cry as much as I thought I would too.

And FRIDAY! Friday was an impromptu supper with Mamadao and nuer dearest! We headed down to C.heesecake cafe then to upperchangi road for some awesome bcm meesua. We talked about life and reminisced about the past (as usual). We also talked about our future, and how the flavour of the cheesecake we ordered reflected our lives............

Wasted my entire weekend on Touch too. :( We had two games on Saturday. One was good, one was way way way below standard. But we were truly worn out by the end of the day. Then Sunday again at Turf for a Day Nat Training Camp. :\ Headed down with fishy. (:

So yes, no work completed over the weekend, thus leaving me with

• Presentation slides
• Presentation Rehearsal
• Sound quiz
• 3007 quiz
• 3002 assignment
• 3007 webcast from Friday
• Tutorials

left undone. It's midweek today and I'm glad half of the above is over. (:

Presentation today was all right; it wasn't awesome. But Q&A was terrible. We couldn't answer a question and were sent back to "do your readings". SIGH.

Sounds was harder than expected: "List 3 journals"

Even the frantic flipping of my notes whenever possible didn't help. The answers aren't even there. -_-

For now, I can finally take a deep breath before I start again.

Need to prepare for another hectic week(end) ahead juggling Touch, Arthur's farewell, and studies.

3 tests next week.

And exams in two weeks.

I. Am. So. Dead.

PS: My neighbours found a baby terrapin outside their room last night!

Hello! It's November!

October passed too quickly I can't even remember how I passed the 31days.

That being said, life's been picking up too quickly,

it's a race against time.

It's hectic and I'm going crazy juggling everything and yes,

it explains the incoherence in my speech and frequent tongue tied incidents.

Save me. I'm sleepy from the weekends. (Of which I did zilch academically. I should be suicidal)
