Day 0331: Comfort in the Dusk.

"...Because this is the last time I'm going to say 'Sorry'...."

I felt bitter throughout the whole day. Can't explain why... but I guess it's because it's all getting to me.

SYF's nearing. Should we start screaming like it's Judgment Day?

Nah. Screaming never suited me. At once, maybe, but not now.

I just need to stay able to survive, right?

My report slip came in.

L1R5 = 18.

My mother commented: You did well for everything, but your Combined Humanes pulled you down.

E8. Bummer.

Not that I really care.

Not that I actually cared for anything since the start of this year.

I don't know why...

Maybe I've given up...

Not that anyone cares either.

Guess I'll live through this on my own....as I always have.

"I'm still an irreplaceable part of someone's life! He said all that.... to me!"

Day 0322: Draw With Me.

I'm impressed.

Holidays come to an end in approximately 12h, 25 min. Sigh... not much of a holiday after all.

Not that anyone cares...

Day 0320: Icing it Up, Walling it Down.

I appreciate Lynn, Tri, Terr and JS for coming down on Monday. It made me feel like the planning of the event, or the lack thereof, was not wasted.

As agreed, we all met up at Kallang MRT. Lynn kept telling us how she was there from 10.15. No-life. I left house at 10.15 as well, and got there by 10.30. From the moment I saw a girl standing there spamming messages, and not taking either train, and waiting near the elevator as agreed upon as well, I knew it was her. But, just for hell's sake, what's life without some fun, right?

Right.

So I stood about 1 meter from her, and messaged her constantly. Kept hinting, and it took her awhile to find out.

So after she found it all out, we waited for Terr and JS, who was quick to spot us, quick to greet us, but was slow to take off.

And, it started raining. Not that we ran, of course. We walked. Slowly. To the bus stop.

And I don't know what the hell Terr and JS were doing, who the hell they were talking to, but since all our voices sound like we just came out of a f**king freezer, they tried to trick that person through the phone by mixing up their names with voices. Trust me, they had me confused.

Upon hitting 16, and hitting KLP's outer roads, we made a 'break for it' through the rain. So we were basically walking in the rain. No dancing.

So after that, we loitered in KFC, had a nice lunch, commented on Lynn's anorexic habits (ahem), and bailed to the arcade. I played Wangan for the first time in 3 months, and I teamed with Terr and JS (on-and-off) in Time Crisis 4. Needless to say, I owned them when scores were compared. But we didn't even get through the first stage. Only through 1-2.

Tri messaged Lynn constantly, commenting that she was lost. I tried calling her, but she, being afraid, didn't pick up. Figures. So we went bowling first. Lynn passed her phone to me, with Tri on the line. So I gave her some directions, since she was already in the KLP through I have no bloody idea what method.

I told Lynn I saw a girl outside, and suggested that maybe it was Tri. So she went.

And I stole her frame. *coughcough*

Anyways, JS, you bastard. Can't believe you beat me by one.

Oh, did I mention I saw Nads, Alv, Kev and a hell lot of other TK peeps there? No kidding. Jared, Alston and two girls, and those 3 back there were all bowling. I was all 'what the hell are you guys doing here?'

Check Nads' blog for the linking of the events.

Meanwhile, we bailed to the arcade, and played around for awhile. Then we started spamming claw machines. I only took one try - wasn't really interested.

And we didn't get anything.

But a Malay lady (not meaning to be racist) kept getting a hell lot.

After that, JS and Terr bailed on home, and Lynn and I spent 1 hour trying to convince Tri to go ice skating. If any of you saw three people sitting at the pillar near the ice skating counter, that was us.

We had another round of bowling, just Lynn and me, before we finally went ice skating.

And that was the craziest 2 hours of my day.

I finally learnt how to turn a ninety without losing much speed, in short, a bit of running sideways. But, it causes a bloody big blister.

Lynn and Tri kept hanging on to the wall, calling it their 'love'. Sheesh.

In the end, they managed to get the hang of speed, but not balance.

Sad story.

And hell, am I glad I was wearing pants.

The rest of the story shall be censored for Tri's sake.

Thanks again, -RDM-.

Day 0314: Sound data unrecognizable.

I was wondering.

I let loose everything 3 weeks ago.

But I feel it all piling up again.

If I needed to shout it all out at someone,...

Would anyone be there for me?

....No....

Didn't think so.

Day 0308: Sleepin' on the Matress

Yes, the title's a ref to the last post.

I returned from camp.

Alive.

Day 0303: 2nd Day/1st Day.

Icebreakers were...not that interesting to me. I vaguely remember the balloon game, maybe my friends will have more info. Anyway, one trainer commented about the balloon sticking on someone's poncho, but he didn't know who did it. For all you curious people, that guy was me. I made that thing stick on Daryl Gan's back.

Instructors: Ping Wen, aka PolkaDot, aka Donald Duck, aka Mr Tan.
Jace, aka Mrs Tan. (see above)

They both rock.

Navigation game was...fun. Thanks, Ping Wen, for the lame jokes and the laughs. I'm sure our small group enjoyed it. Thought you never did get Jace wet in the end.

The rescue thingy at night was just...wrong. Our 'patient' kept saying his name was Pussycat Dolls. We were all WTF-ing. LOL-ing included.

Lucky they were all sane. In short, acting.

Chalets, bitch!

Day 0304: 3rd Day/2nd Day

Today, during breakfast, we played Truth or Dare. Needless to say, I got hit quite a few times.

And that's when I told two people who I liked. But for privacy issues, that shall not be revealed.

Kayaking was a killer. Both to skin, and to arms.

Skin = F**king sunburnt to hell. I look like a Red Indian now.
Arms = F**king tired to hell. If it wasn't for Kimberly, I think I'd be stuck there right now.

According to (unreliable) sources, we kayak-ed for 5 km or more. Unbelievable.

We had to stand on our kayaks on one occasion, as a game. Guess what? I was one of those, and while trying to move/stomp our feet, I slipped, lost balance, and my feet/leg hit the water running 5 times. I almost pulled Putra and Gavin with me. Who were beside me. Some scene I caused.

Then I made our boat capsize. Ain't I awesome?

Our cheer that we prepped? Not so good, but at least we showed the enthusiasm.

Day 0305: 4th Day/3rd Day

I remember waking up on this day at 5 f**king 30 on this day in the morning, even though we were supposed to meet at 8.30. So, I took the chance to sleep for another hour, while everyone was playing Poker. Then I went to bathe.

Hey, go with the flow.

We were supposed to have CIP Nature Conservation talks and all, but, as usual, we didn't go. Instead, Polkadot promised us that we would go tekan the Sec 2s.

Not that it ever came true.

After the bridge picture, which is ALL OVER FACEBOOK, we turned back and gathered for the Waterfall briefing.

The trek there was a killer. Glenn and I spent the whole time playing 'Word Web'. And by right, I lost first.

In the forest itself, Nadira and Glenn in front of me, I started spouting out random cheers. From the infamous 3A's 'YAAAAAAYYYY' cheer, to singing songs like Check Yes Juliet. What's wrong with me, I don't know.

Then Alston started singing 'If You're Happy And You Know It'. Which, of course, everyone joined in.

Once we hit the waterfall, which is so measly that it's only as high as a ceiling of your room (Except you, Ant. You're an exception.), we took a photo, after which Darrel Chee started splashing water all over us. So, everyone was wet.

Blablabla, useless crap, blablabla, invention of 'Do You Know The Bak-Gua Man' and 'You Are My Bak-Gua', blablabla.

Walking back, everyone lost their enthusiasm, so not much singing left. The campfire was awesome, and it's the first time the ex-2Cians of 3A chanted 'Sir, Your Handsome Sir!' to Aniq again. Yes, Aniq, the guy from last year.

And that's when I officially lost my voice. Thank goodness I ain't a Tenor.

In the afternoon, our room's circuit got busted, so at night, after the campfire, we returned, and Polkadot told us to pack our stuff and switch rooms. Daryl Gan and Alston were SO excited that our room was directly beneath the girls'. Daryl's case is obvious -- Liang Yi is in that room. Alston's is also obvious -- Pervert.

And we had a f**king single bed and double bed. Woo.

Day 0306: 5th Day/Last Day

Woke up at 6, so I was quite franticed. I was the 3rd last to use the shower, and we packed like ants, bailed, and got ready. We managed to reach the canteen in time, and that's when chaos happened. Trainers started during KBox. Okay, not really, but they took the stage and sang as an official event.

Everyone's voice was zhao xia, so we were pretty quiet. Some of us tried cheering loud, but we couldn't.

The ride home was squeezed. Me + Daryl eventually became Me + Daryl + Glenn, then became Me + Nadira + Glenn.

Ouch.

Then on the bus in Singapore, while going through the highway that lies beside the CBD, we started singing songs, courtesy of Zicong's phone.

And the rest... is history.

Day 0302: Sleepin' with the leeches.

It's back to Kota Tinggi in approximately 12 hours.

Joy.

Common Tests so far....looking good.

Chinese: 29/50. That's the first B4 ever in Sec School.
A-Maths: 40/40. That's the first Ace ever since P3.
Bio: Unknown. But most likely terrible.

So, there you have it.

As I said, it's back to Kota Tinggi.

Yes, Kota Tinggi. The place which I described in no detail back in 03XX of last year.

You won't miss me. I won't miss you.
