Hmmm going to my grandmother's house to stay from tmr. So going to have not much access to com again for quite some time. Until I come back from youth camp I think. Think it'll make it must easier for me to do the SPAM(issit called spam? Cannot remember) thing since got no com to tempt me. But I might collect a lot of dust during that period. The tv in my grandmother's house is like on almost all the time. So I can just stay in the room and collect dust. Oh no! I just realised that I forgot to buy newspaper today. My very smart sister told me to buy tmr. ya right, like they sell today's papers tmr.

ok, this is the general post for the big 4 outing yesterday written in my point of view haha. Cuz Calvin and Justin too lazy to write. Shall not write it too narratively to compliment both of thier style, esp Calvin's summary type of post. But i think it won't work.

Hmmm... after distribution, we took 173 to clementi then took mrt to changi airport. Went to T3 to look look see see. Actually nothing much to see cuz quite a lot of areas not open yet. But the guys, esp Calvin were having a great time playing with the disinfectant in the toilet cubicles. Use to wash hand somemore. It was only after we went to T2 that he realised that it was supposed to be used for cleaning the toilet seat. Yea, at T3, we found a lot of uses for our 7% gst, like the carpet, disinfectant, ceiling etc.

Then took skytrain to T1 and just walked from one end to the other and tried to find somewhere to eat dinner but the food there like very ex so went to T2 instead. Took skytrain again to T2. Then we realised that the food in T2 is just as ex except for the fast food like Macs and burger king. In the end, went to fish and co to eat. All of us ate fish and chips. And they were seriously short of staff. Raised our hands so many time, nobody see. After they saw, they listen to what we want then they forget abt it. We had to ask 3 different people for 4 cups of water before it finally came, brought by the 3rd waiter. Then the 2nd waitress finally remember abt our water so she brought 4 cups of water and happily walked to our table only to see that we already had the water and turn back. Justin was laughing like crazy after seeing that. Then we left after paying the bill. They gave us free sweets when we paid the bill, and Calvin wanted to ask for somemore(sweets).

Yup, then we went to see planes. There was a double decker plane but not sure if it was A380. Yong Chian said that it's not, then after looking for a while more he said not sure. But quite a lot of ppl were looking at it so it might be. Hmmm, then went to the toilet and Calvin was playing with the disinfectant again. It was still quite early at that time, ard 7 plus so we deicded to go to the esplanade there.

Walked ard outside the esplande. Then Calvin wanted to take a pic of the poster cuz someone inside was doing something that Josiah always does(i think). While he was taking his pic, the other 3 of us pangseh him. We ran to hide behind a pillar and after he walked away, we ran into the esplande building. After some time, we realised that his phone no battery and cannot call us so decided to be nice and go back to look for him. We went back and found him with someone. Hmmm such a coincidence.

Then we went to the other side of the esplanade and saw some band playing. Stand there and watched for while. Wanted to take a pic but there was nobody around except for a policeman and Calvin didn't want to ask him. In the end, we asked a security guard cuz someone else asked him to help them take a pic too. This is the pic.



Justin treated all of us to a drink(Thanks!) and we started walking to Clarke Quay and past Clarke Quay. Quite late already so decided to go home. Yup, walked down 90 steps to reach the mrt station and took train back. Yup, end of outing. It was quite fun:) Can go out again next time.

Saturday, November 17, 2007

Haha this post is typed out in microsoft word then copied over to blogger cuz the blogger page is loading super slowly. This post is going to be very long, like what calvin said, cuz quite a lot of exciting stuff happened haha. Ok, actually just posting abt cell bbq only. I’ve been looking forward to it so it should be exciting. But there’s going to be a lot of narrating.

Ok, charlotte met yong chian and I at the bus stop then brought us to her house. Justin and Calvin were supposed to purposely come late to put the present together while I was supposed to go early and collect the presents frm everybody. In the end, everybody turned out to be only 2 ppl. Yup, then later we walked to kap cold storage to buy food for the bbq. Unfortunately, not a lot of stuff could be found there. So yong chian and I went to bukit timah plaza ntuc and the rest met us there later.

Ok, start on the bbq. The 2 RR ppl had a chance to show off their skills cuz Joyce couldn’t come that early. It was the battle between the long charcoal and the short charcoal! Haha. Yong chian got the long ones and Justin got the short ones. Both did quite well and they got the fire burning:) Not like everytime band outing take super long to start fire(digression). Yup, then we started cooking.

Oh ya, and cuz it was Charlotte’s birthday, we wanted to give her a surprise. We were supposed to melt chocolate so that it will seem like fondue. But yong chian’s fire to strong and the chocolate solidified and became a bit burnt. But Justin study f and n, so he improvised something which consisted of marshmallows, the chocolate, ice-cream and chocolate sauce. It turned out not bad but then in the end Charlotte said that she don’t eat marshmallow haha. The food was quite nice but had leftovers so we cooked them for the adults.

Ok, here comes the exciting part cuz it’s past midnight already haha. Yea, our bbq lasted for 2 days! We just sit around and didn’t really do anything. Then at 12 plus started to clear up. The charcoal was super disgusting and yong chian used his hands to clear it so his hands became super dirty. Then he asked joyce to shake his hand and to his shock, she really did. After that he was like “I can’t believe that she really did that. I’m impressed” haha.

Went into the house to bathe after that. Shall write the times that yong chian timed. Yong Chian took abt 40 mins to shampoo his hair 4 times cuz it was marinated/ saturated with smoke(according to him). I took ard 14 mins, Samuel took 6mins, joyce took 25 mins, Justin took abt 12mins. And I’m not sure abt the rest. Yong Chian was still the longest. Cannot imagine how long he will take if he has long hair.

Yup, after bathing and getting refreshed, we watched ‘anger management’. It wasn’t very interesting except for the ‘I feel pretty’ part where all the guys were laughing. We stopped watching halfway and Yong Chian, Justin, Joyce and I went for a walk round the condo. Tried to walk past the guard without letting him know but he saw us in the end. Then we went to sit at the playground and talk and gather dust.

At ard 5 plus, we started our morning walk to kap for breakfast. Samuel and Justin started being crazy, like sitting, walking and jumping inthe middle of the road. See what lack of sleep can do to you. I shall not talk abt what happened at kap. But almost everyone slept there, except for Justin, Joyce and I.

Yup, then we went back to the house. Yong Chian, Calvin and Samuel fell asleep on the sofa. Charlotte and I were playing the piano. Justin and Jeremy were playing the com. Joyce fell asleep beside the piano. So in the end left Justin and I haven't sleep yet. He wanted to compete see who sleep later. I lose already lah. Cuz just now I came home to sleep at ard 3. I think he until now still haven't sleep yet. 39 hr record and still counting.

Storm practice. It was ok. Then my auditions. No comments. Actually dun really feel like writing already. Super long le. If next time feel like elaobrating on the auditions then write. Haha bye! (wow, got 10 paragraphs, dunno how to put colour scheme)

trumpets forever - 9:30 PM :)

Tuesday, November 13, 2007

Haha finally home and have access to the com once again. Ok, actually it should be tmr. Going back ama house to stay tonight then come home tmr night. Mummy's coming back tmr! Going airport to fetch her and celebrate her birthday as well. And tmr is also Charlotte's and Rui Ping's birthday! Haha popular day to have birthdays.

Yay! Looking forward to cell bbq on Fri and the big four excursion on Sun. Yong Chian suggested that we go for the excursion on Fri night instead. Midnight more fun. But got no transport so cannot. Sad... Nevermind, it will be exciting as well even if we go on Sun. Going to airport T3 to look around and have dinner:) It's now open to public! Hope that the A380 will be in Singapore at that time. But xiao gu say since only got 1 plane, so it will be flying most of the time and might not be in Singapore.

Actually supposed to have auditions for storm this Sat but I totally forgot that my friends coming over. So blur. So change to next Sat instead. Hope still can stayover at Charlotte's house then try to reach cck by 10am. Oh ya, reminds me, I'm supposed to send out an email to my friends to confirm if they're coming.

Hmmm just had lunch in front of the com. My sister is eating in front of the tv. Oh ya, mummy say she bought a lot of vcds from China, esp Hong Kong serial drama haha. Can watch during the holidays:) Hope got nice ones. And I just found out my grouping for youth camp. It's not too bad lah but I don't know some people.

Oh, today when yan and I were coming back from ama house, we were stopped at the mrt station cuz I was carrying my luggage bag and the person there wanted to check it. Like I would carry a bomb around. So I opened my bag to show her all my clothes and she was satisfied. Actually, even if there was a bomb inside, she wouldn't have found it cuz she didn't look thoroughly.

Ok, this post is very messy and the content is like jumping all about. I bet I would fail for coherence if this was an essay. Better stop now, must go vacuum floor and practise piano. Got piano lesson tonight and I haven't touched the piano for more than one week. Teacher wanted me to prac scales somemore, sure get scolded:P

This is the pink paragraph:)

Haven't blogged for super long. Staying in ama house so dun use com so often. Anyway got no time to use also. Ok, let's see what i did during the week.

Monday: Went to library and amk hub with xiao gu and yan.

Tuesday: Kayaking! It was drizzling slightly so didn't really get sun tanned

Wednesday: Kayaking again! Today got sun so put sunblock. Got a little darker and sunburnt on my shoulder. Weird place to get sunburnt...

Thursday: Thought since public holiday can sleep late and slack whole day. But in the end go out the whole day. Morning er shu brought us to eat breakfast. Then go back bathe and went to meet the big four to study. After that went to marine parade with the extended family on my dad's side. Quite a lot of people went, quite fun.

Friday: Kayaking again! Today weather very good. Super hot and the sun super glaring so we put a lot of sunblock haha. Nevertheless, everybody became darker and some got sunburnt. Mr Kuo became red like a lobster. Anyway, the expedition was quite fun. We kayaked super fast so the instructors always let us raft up and break raft. Then rest a lot and still got time to park the kayak on some beach and play captain's ball. We kayaked about 8km (on hand according to ying ming(is that how u spell her name?))went near the esplanade and merlion. Haha we waved to all the tourist at the merlion and on the ducktours. Mr Kuo told us not to scare the tourists then we shout hello even louder. After expedition, finally got our certificate! thern we went to the hawker centre to eat linner/dunch cuz already 4 plus. Yup, then go home.

Kayaking was quite fun for all 3 days, especially capsizing on purpose then try to do rescue. Got a bit darker and got to know quite a few people that i never talked to before. Oh ya, we till have to do a post sabbatical activity. We decided to go rent the kayaks and just keep on capsizing ourselves and do rescue and sit there and tan ourselves haha.

Hmmm tmr going to play badminton in the afternoon and er shu's going to bring us out to eat at night. Haha, looking forward to the satay, chicken wing, stingray etc. Sure get fat, but I don't care. Getting back the calories that I lost while kayaking for the past 3 days. Wei Shan's coming too! (cannot let her see this or she'll definitely get evenb more ego than what she is now, if that's possible)

Wow, long post. Have fun reading haha. I'm not sure if Calvin saboed me to do the quiz but I shall assume that he didn't cuz I'm lazy to do. That's all for now. Shall go sleep, tired after the expedition today. Ahhh i just realised got error on page so cannot change colour:( This long post will be white, so plain...

trumpets forever - 10:17 PM :)

I've decided to blog cuz I may not be blogging much or be online for the whole of next week. Going my grandmother's house to stay(only got 1 com and internet not broadband) and I'll be rather busy with sabbaticals I think. Oh yay, kayaking. Should be fun :)

Went to 2 briefings for the immersion programme with my mum and aunty Pamela today. The first one was at guang hua school then second one at Ananias centre in Clementi. It went quite smoothly I suppose. Parents had some questions as expected.

Hmmm still got quite a few things undone. Firstly have to do birthday card by today. Then tmr going ama house and I haven't packed my stuff. Come back and pack tmr. Ok, that's only 2 but ya, must do before going to ama house. Don't know if having cell tmr...

trumpets forever - 6:18 PM :)

Thursday, November 01, 2007

Haven't blogged for a long time and I wonder why. Was I really that busy? Or was I that hardworking that I was studying for Chinese? Hmmm...can't remember...nvm. Oh yay! Chinese O level is finally over! This is absolute absolute freedom :D

Ok, talk about the paper first. Actually nothing much to say. It was easier than prelims and with some hope, I should be able to get an A1. One of the comprehension came out before in some school's prelim paper, so coincidental. But obviously I cannot remember the answers so not much use. The close passage was relatively simple, hopefully can do better that what I got in the practice papers, which range from 6-16. Erm then Vic-ki, Liting and I went Lot 1 to have lunch. We ate pepper lunch:) haha exciting.

Then today I went for band:) Had sectionals for a while then had main band with Mr Lee. It was rather normal. Hmmm went Lot 1 to eat Pastamania with my section. Then they came my house to play. Shall elaborate more on the section blog.
