"the horror!"
Finally I have access to google sites! Woohoo! For those who didn't know google blocked my ip address for the past few days or so for reasons of breaking some sort of terms of agreement that I don't think I have committed but hey, I'm free now lol.Since I haven't written anything for the past days I guess I'll make it up some sort.
28/03
Friday, the last school day of the week. Somehow it didn't feel much like the last day of the week. PE was pretty "fun" today. The 5 rounds around the track was accompanied by other sorts of training in between the rounds, which made running 5 rounds less a chore. After PE ended, there was 2 hours before the dialogue session was going to start. Unable to borrow a bball from the bookshop, and feeling quite drained, I decided to head back home to take a bath before coming back to school.
My parents attended the dialouge as well. I felt that this session was targeted mostly for the parents and guardians, as most of the information covered was already made known to us like a zillion times before. Comments: A total waste of time.
29/3 (Sat)
Nyjc's Sports Carnival today over at ccab. Reached there about 7.25am or so. Met up with some of my ct mates over at the steps leading to the ccab office. Couldn't find matthew so gave him a call only to find out that he just woke up lol. The people present for orienteering at that time was only dansu, ck and I. The 3 men trio in action? Soon jj and wangyu joined us so our strength was up to 5/6 hurruay! With matthew's impromptu attempt to get to ccab, ck was the stand in leader. We were given a sudoku puzzle to solve - meaning that my phone's sudoku solver could come into great use! While keying the given numbers into my phone, my group was already half done. With the help of the solver, we managed to finish the puzzle in minimum time. "Awesome!" as matthew will say.
The other half of the class who were taking part in touch rugby and frisbee reported too early as their match only started at 10am and 9.30am respectively hence they headed to Mr. Prata which was across the road to get some pratas.
We set off at around 8.40am and headed to botanic gardens. Overall we were given a total of 15 clues to solve. The points were all over the place some were obvious while some made us walk in circles within the vicinity of the given place. Matthew managed to catch up with us at our second point after getting himself all the way to queensway or some sort and took a cab to botanic gardens.
Halfway through, we found a store selling tibits and drinks. Wangyu got himself nachos and fries, while matthew got himself a bottle of h2o @ $3, a wooping 200% mark up of normal market prices.
and so blah blah blah.... we finished the 15 clues, jj was super exhausted and regretted joining orienteering as he didn't expect it to be that physically challenging. hahaz.
We headed back to ccab, handed up the map and answers and decided to look for the rest. We saw a familiar damsel in distress on the way who turned out to be lan lan, who just arrived at ccab breaking matthew's record set for being the latest person in our class. We made our way to the multi purpose courts, noticing that our class had already played in frisbee and won a wooping 20 points and currently playing touch. We saw zhi peng and andy at the court and when we made our way over to their court, the match was over and we tasted a match of defeat. It seems our opponent was a super formidable class with rugby players and stuff and I guess it didn't really matter whether our class won or not.
After that it was pretty chaotic as half of the class was looking for a way out of ccab, while the other was sitting on the fence whether to stay and watch the teachers play frisbee or leave. In the end some left while some stayed. Mr Quek played too and made some pretty nifty scores.
After an hour or so, it finally ended and stuff and we decided to go to plaze singapura to have lunch and stuff. Halfway to the bus stop, the damsel in distress saved earlier was in yet another nasty situation. With her bag passed to ling who was following our small group, she was stranded still at ccab, up to now I still know not why she was separated in the first place. So Aaron and Ling tried giving lan lan directions but failed thus we had to walk all the way back to the prata shop to pick her up. It seems she walked almost all the way past the botanic gardens to the highway or so lol. After that the 4 girls got a cab and headed off to ps 1st, leaving aaron, kau, ling, sjj and I at the bus stop. We tried to get a cab, but failed to get on it because the taxi can only take a max of 4 passengers. Thus we took a bus to Newton and changed to a mrt.
Met up with the rest of the class at yoshinoya and had lunch there. After that the class split into 2 groups. 1 went to cineleisure to catch a movie while the other went to the meridian to play pool. I went along with pool though I've never played it before. Aaron made nice shots though saying that he just learned pool a day before. Sjj and Kau also knew how to play pool. Marjy and trix seemed very experienced as well, leaving ling and me the only noobies ._."
I played 1 game with ling. Lost in the end lol. Ahahahz! boohoo! The whole game costed $24.60 if I'm not wrong, pretty ex if you'd ask me. On the way out of the shop, I met a friend who was going to pool inside lol.
After that kau and ling took a bus home, sjj, aaron, trix, marjy and I waked to the mrt station, stopping at a roadside car simulation competition to get a glimpse and after that went our seperate ways. =S
Night falls and so does my com. The graphic card seems to be fried -.-" sad... left with my sis com to use now haharz...
30/3
Com's down piles of homework to complete. 2 test past, and i'm already feeling that I'm slacking too much. Physics test was totally screwed up. Computing surprise test left me a nasty failure mark impressed in my heart. PW research topic is killing me. I spent 5 hours looking through my pile of newspaper just to get the article I wanted to no avail. In the end I used google search and found it in cnn webby and st webby... should have done that earlier... the news I was looking for dated back to january lol.

pe shorts size xxxl?
Alright I may have gained some weight as compared to the year before but a xxxl pe shorts? The bookshop finally got the stock of the long awaited pe attire. As usual, long queues were seen as students squeezed through the crowd to get their hands on the limited stock that was brought in. Not wanting to fight with the pre- pe lesson crowd, I skipped the thought of purchasing the pe attire during my first half hour break.The next one was at 3.30pm. The bookshop was still quite crowded with students even at that time. My turn soon came and I told the auntie that I wanted a size 40 house shirt (thinking that the shirt comes in number sizes - 1st mistake) and also pe shorts. The PE shirt was down to two sizes, 38 & 44, both which doesn't fit me as I wear size 40 => (I didn't buy it). I paid up for the shirt and shorts and stuffed them in my bag as I walked away from the bookshop (2nd mistake - never check the sizing.)
Now at 9.27pm, I finally decided to open up to check the fittings of my new house shirt and pe shorts. The pe shorts looked very baggy and indeed to my horror:
The house shirt was a medium sized shirt. Rather small for a medium.. guess I'll have to get them changed tmr..

gd friday
Woke up at around 9.30am today, washed up, took a shower, went to the nearby coffee shop for breakfast, then took a train down to city hall to meet sjj. We wanted to attend the cabal event held in suntec, to be more precise, we wanted the goodie bag *o*.Alright by the time we got to suntec, somehow the place wasn't in the mood of an event at all. Both of us read that the event was going to be at suntec but didn't bother to read the rest of the venue. We went up down left right in the convention centre, got a bite, and started to wonder whether we were in the right place. So I called my sis to help me check the cabal website for the details, as sjj and I went gallivanting. When my sis called back, she told me that it was held at suntec tropics atrium. Sjj noticed one of the signboards ahead which shows the direction to tropics atrium. We followed the signboards and found the location at last. The place wasn't too crowded at first glance. We scanned for the goodie bags counter and found it within minutes. At first glance, the queue wasn't all too long. There was a queue master at the end of the line and thus I headed there as I thought that was the end of the queue. Just when I was going to enter the queue, the queue master told me to join the end of the queue.
I was puzzled. Wasn't this the end of the queue? He pointed to the direction behind me. I turned my head towards where he was pointing and noticed yet another queue at the other side which was uber long. We decided in the end not to join the queue as the goodie bags were on a while stock last basis and the pre requisite was to verify the asiasoft passport account or open a asiasoft passport account at the counter. Both sjj and myself had already verified our accounts at previous occasions, hence it was unclear whether verified members like sjj and myself were entitled to the goodies.
Skipping the idea of getting the goodie bag, we looked at the event plan for the day. Nothing caught our interest and hence we left tropics atrium. Since we were already there, we decided to go bowling at marina square's superbowl, which was super ex today as good friday is not that good after all -..-" $4.30 for each game and $1 for shoe rental. Sjj didn't have socks so he had to pay extra for the socks. We only played one round. I managed 2 strikes and 2 spares, finishing with a score of 113 which isn't all too bad considering that I have not bowled for a long long time. Sjj was quite new to the game. His balls always travel in a straight line towards the left side, and never travelled to the right side througout the game lol. After the game, we went our seperate ways at the mrt station.
Went chinatown with my parents for lunch. Had the famous crayfish hor fan for lunch. Missed it so much! Haven't had it for ages. Rest of the day spent at home rotting in front of my com / books, blah blah blah. uber boring day... haiz

IQ - 159?? dumbfounded x.x
Free-IQTest.net - Fun IQ Test
I bet this IQ test isn't that accurate.. most of the questions are pretty straight forward.
Hmm too lazy to write anything today so I'll just share this series with everyone:
Monday, March 17, 2008, 11:08 PM
??? who is this guy!!??
Reached school @ 7.30am++ even though our first lesson started @ 8.40am. JC2 were having their block tests so they had the morning assembly first. Even though I wasn't part of the JC2, all those in the canteen needed to stand for the morning assembly. no comments. Anyway Matthew was already in school by the time I arrived. Seems he slacked through the one week break as he was doing his binomial expansion worksheet. Hmm I wouldn't be honest if I say i have already finished my work by then as I skipped all the parts which required to find the term in x^n as I found it troublesome to find the common term in the expansion. Lazy right?Aiya, aside from maths, our first lesson was GP. The tutor's quite a cool guy who wants only to be referred as Mr Shane or Mr Koh. No "Sir". Matthew volunteered readily to be the gp rep when a volunteer was requested and "accidentally" due to habit keep referring Mr Shane as "Sir". L~O~L. After the brief introduction of what gp covers, Mr Shane calls up 2 names from the name list. So suay!!! Aaron and I got called out for the first activity. Well the activity was something like charades, only that we could describe verbally what is on the piece of paper. So Aaron did the guessing and I did the descriptions. Well I as I skimmed through the stack of names given to me, I realize that I was in big trouble. Names of the different ministers was written on the paper. Alright, most of the names seem quite familiar, but I didn't bother getting their different posts in my head. Thus I only manage to describe Lee Hsien Long. How pathetic! T-T... At least after the class ended, I can remember some of the ministers of Singapore.
PE was next, height and weight being the main objective of the lesson. As we were the last class to fall in, the weighing/height measurement machine was used by the other classes. Thus we did 3 laps around the track to train up for our nafa test in april. We had 7minutes to complete the 3 laps. I wonder when I last got to exercise. My stamina has dropped dramatically. I was almost out of breath during my final round. We did some sit and reach exercise next, followed by taking our height and weight. Somehow I don't trust the invention by NYP fully. My height seemed to be shorter than my last medical checkup's height measurement. I can't have grown shorter during the holidays right?
PW question released at last today in LT4. Interesting topics this year: Journeys & Modernization. Journey perceives to be the easier between the two choices, but modernization is quite a broad bass topic which can be viewed in different perspectives. I guess I'll have a hard time choosing between the two choices. And gosh PI has to be submitted soon!
Well I'm almost done with my computing homework. Practical 1 is completed while I've already almost done with the first qn on Practical 2. Well it took me quite long at first to get one question done cause I have never used C++ in my life before but now that I look at it, it's actually quite standard. Even though its different from html, they share some concepts.
I've decided to abstain from Cabalsea for a while to prevent myself from getting too addicted to it. My chionging ambition must be put aside for the greater good. My laptop is still infected with the stupid trojan PWS-LegMir.dll thingy. Mcafee already updated the trojan info but have not really found a way to get rid of it. The trojan is also not in the database of stinger so I can't totally remove the trojan from my computer. Sianz!! Worst still the trojan tags itself to any autorun programs like msnmsg, external harddrives and the virus executes the trojan once the autorun program is launched. How frustrating! =(

the cat's still there!
As titled, the cat who decided to nest itself on top of the atm is still there! Here's the proof:
Arrr school's starting in a couple of hours time. One week of free and easy time is all over. Looking back at the past week, I probably regretted how meaningfully it was spent on catching up with my daily sleep and also familiarizing myself with cabalsea. I joined my guild with GPQ on friday using my arch mage at first and later using nick's noob juzguardian for the noob slot in GPQ. I realized that I really hated jumping those jumping maps as it was a taxing, vexing, nerve wrecking, irritating...... you get the picture right?
I came across this book at the bishan community library yesterday and went roflots. Wanted to give it to the someone who needed a life. Read the synopsis for the book but didn't find it all that interesting. Probably it's my taste of storybooks, maybe you'll like this book. =p
Friday, March 14, 2008, 3:15 PM
lol... sch's starting le....
School's starting and I have hardly sorted out my homework yet... I'm dooooooommmeeedddd!!Anyway remember the pic I posted a couple of days ago? Guess what the cat has hardly moved an inch from the atm. It's not dead though. Probably feeling cold and stuff because of the weird weather Singapore's experiencing this past couple of days. I still can't remember a year where we experience so much rainfall in march. Gosh at least I don't have to use my air conditioner, least a fan!!
OMG!! I think I'm already getting addicted to cabalsea >.<" I leveled to lv 24 in 2days. I'm playing in mercury server, ign: nytopz . LoL!! SianZ!!! school break almost ending le.... arghh!!!! I think I'm too used to school holidays to...
Time to get my hw done... cyaz!
@kl: kk lol took ur link down le lar!! lol =.="

untitled for no reason
Slept like a pig last night or perhaps should I say this morning. I woke up around 10am ate some sandwiches my mom prepared for me and then followed her to amk hub's ntuc xtra to get some items for our lunch.After shopping, I met some of my secondary school friends. All of them were wearing CJC's school uniform... seems like they had to go back to school for some extra curriculum.
Finally got my game clients installed. Haven't logged into maplestory for ages... I wonder how's everyone faring. Gosh my audition skills have reached rock bottom from the 3 months break I took from it. I downloaded Cabalsea too but haven't got a chance to try it out yet...heard it is a rather interesting game.
Here's a picture to share:
Guess why no one withdrew cash from this atm.

blog makeover + P6 reunion
For those who have visited my blog before you'll probably notice that my blog just got a major makeover. Finally I got some free time to get some skins for my blog so tataa~ Some older posts would be published this week, and more links + changes would be made. If you want/don't want your blog to be in my link list, please send me a sms, email or just tag me.Anyway I attended my primary 6 class reunion today at Kovan Melody. Gosh Kovan Melody is just beautiful, they've got state of the art swimming pools and gyms, tennis/bball courts and even a little flying fox corner. Well before even laying foot into the condo, I met up with two of my ex-classmates, timmy and danz. I didn't recognize timmy at all! In fact I sort of walked past him without noticing his presence. Gosh he has really change quite dramatically since the last time I saw him. More muscular, less sissy and overall, more manly.
Of all days to rain it must fall on the day we plan for a bbq.. To protect the fire from going out, raincoats and umbrella's were used to shelter the top of the pit. I recognize most of the faces almost instantly when I reached there, although there's been quite a lot of changes in appearance after this four years of separation. Ratio really must have worked out lots lately. He looks like Jun Hong no.2. ROFL~ The girls generally have become more open, and of course prettier *laughs*. Nick lim is as suave as ever while nick goh has really shot up some height. Wilson got himself a total "L" look and from certain angles it was quite hard to make out whether he was a male or female.
Halfway through, the girls needed more charcoal, thus nick lim, merilyn and I made our way to the cold storage to get a few bags of charcoal. We didn't have a umbrella with us so we literally braved the rain. Merilyn must be very popular in her school. On the way to cold storage she met a classmate and later in cold storage yet another friend. Harz. We picked up the charcoal plus a 100 paper plates and also a packet of chocolates(for lyn) and headed back to the bbq pit.... only to find only the girls bbqing the food while the boys were back in Sandy's house having their dinner and chatting/ playing cards. Blah blah blah and blah and time for phototaking:
i'm not in this pic! boohoo lols!
Overall I would say this is one of the more successful P6 reunion so far. Wish that I won't catch a cold tonight! Hmm better tuck myself in! Gdbye ppl!
edited: more photos! hurray! =3

mad prices=good deals
It's the last day of the IT fair which means mad prices + good deals! =pWell since Matthew wasn't going to the fair anymore, I decided to go there with my dad. He parked his car at Newton Circle and we had lunch there before taking the train a few stops to city hall. As expected Raffles city was jam packed with people. After what seems like hours, we manage to get ourselves to the 4th level of Suntec City. I had already collected a handful of brochures by the time we took a step inside the 4th level hall.
Studying the map at the side for a while, we visited the hp booth first to check out the prices of the print cartridge for my printer. It was a whooping good deal! $19.50 for one black ink cartridge would save me at least $7 if I were to buy it from NTUC Xtra.
Next we headed to the 6th floor. I wanted to get some thumb drives for the best of price hence we went searching for the cheapest thumb drive in the whole 6th floor. In the process , I found the Pluto booth- my computer's brand. Gosh the cpu casing was superb! Dam I wish I could get my hand on the Ultimax casing...
I got myself a couple of thumb drives for quite a reasonable price and hence my father and I left the Suntec convention centre at around 3pm to go back to Newton to get the car and fetch my sis from the community centre. My sis helps tutor primary school kids in their work almost every weekend. Isn't she great??
Oh yea there was this cool F1 racing car model on display. My dad got all hyped up about it, thinking that it was a real racing car. Here's the picture:

end of O2
It's the last day of all the fun... how sad T-T. As the saying goes "All good things comes to an end." I guess I'll just have to kiss O2 goodbye~ and prepare for the worst...The first activity today was the continuation of what we did not manage to complete the day before - standing on a table and shouting out your goal and why it's so important to you and stuff. Luckily I've already done this yesterday.. those who haven't got the chance to do it yesterday had to face a bigger group as the whole ct combined to listen to our classmates. I won't dwell to much on this activity as it wasn't one of my favorite activity.
The second activity was "Trustfall". Basically you have to stand on top of a couple of chairs stacked together and fall backwards, while your classmates will form the cradle with their hands to catch you. Each Olympian is given 3 choices - 1. Choose to go w/o blindfold ; 2. Choose to go w/ blindfold ; 3. Choose not to go. This was my favorite activity for the day. As I had made a risk to volunteer to go first in the second activity, I participated in this activity first. Well I was quite excited being the first one going up, but the choice to fall with or without blindfold troubled me quite a bit. If I fell with blindfold maybe I wouldn't be that scared of the height while standing on the chair. In the end I went up without blindfolds as I wanted to take a step forward to conquer my fear of heights. Surprisingly, when I was up on top of the stack of chairs, the feeling wasn't all too bad. Even my facilitator commented that I was surprisingly calm. My hands was cuffed to prevent them from opening up during the fall which could cause some injuries to the catchers.
"Cradle ready?" I asked as instructed by the instructor.
"Ready!" I heard my ct shout.
"I, Nicholas Yeo am ready to fall!" I shouted.
"Fall!!!" came the reply.
My facilitator let go of her hands supporting my shoulders. I took a deep breath in and took one final look of the view in front of me. I closed my eyes and fell back, expecting the worst possible impact that I would experience. It was over in an instant. No pain was experienced. I gradually opened my eyes, and the first thing I saw was my whole ct using whatever energy they can muster to support my 5x kg of weight. There was a tat of awkwardness yet also heartwarming.
"Jiayou!" I whispered while lying in the cradle, only to be shushed by my facilitator.
I closed my eyes for another 30s or so till the instructor gave the instruction to open my eyes. I was slowly lowered to the ground foot first. I managed my footing while one of my friends helped take of the cuffs from my hands. That was it my "trustfall" was successfully completed. A round of applause from all around the hall for all the Olympians who had took part first in the activity was heard. I couldn't manage a smile, exhaustion from anticipation was overwhelming me yet a sense of achievement was felt. From my facilitator's feedback, my fall was considered a "nice fall" as I fell without falling butt first.
She explained that the way a person falls would somewhat imply the amount of trust you have of those going to catch you. I guess I trusted that my ct quite a lot, or probably it would be how my body would react in a real life situation. I guess I can rule out the latter as I probably would not fall like a log in real life situation. One by one my ct did the activity. Most chose to fall with blindfold. Matthew was the last one to fall. Gosh his weight was insane. There was instances that I almost wanted to let go of him but my inner self told me not to give up. I'm really proud of all my classmates. We did not even have one person who fell through the cradle. My buddy was fantastic too. She fell pretty nicely with blindfolds on. Sadly she left for her secondary school after the activity was over as she was required to be there for some preparation for a school activity which would be held tomorrow.
After this activity, we were given a 2 hour break as the hall was to be used for the A Level Results release. During the 2 hour break, Matthew, Zhi Peng, Andy, SJJ, Tricia, Marjorie, Aaron, CK and I went to drum first to chill out. Before leaving the hall, each of us had to set a specific "risk" that we are to accomplish in the 2 hours span. My "risk" was to call a friend (lawls~) And so Aaron volunteered to choose a person from my contact list for me to call. So he scrolls down the list of contacts and comes across a name which he finds weird- Dolly. So he shows me the phone and told me, "Call this person."
I was controlling myself from bursting into a fit of laughter. He actually manage to choose a kin of mine.. and I doubt that he will ever find out that the person who he chose was to be of such close relationship to me.
"You sure you want me to call this person?" I asked with a smirk.
He nodded lazily. I managed a nervous face as I pressed the call button.
"Hi!"
'Hey how come you're calling me now?' came the reply.
"Oh well I'm actually calling you as I have to complete my "risk" that I had set myself."
'Huh? what risk? You mean you're calling me when you're not suppose to?'
.
.blah
.
.blah (tricia+andy+matthew+zp talking crap to frame me)
.
"Just play along ok?" I whispered.
"Hey are you going for the P6 reunion on monday? Oh okay. See you then! Bye~" I finished my conversation, while the other person on the phone was left wondering what I was talking about for the past few seconds.
"Too easy!" I thought. So the rest of my ct was like pinning on the fact that the call wasn't exciting enough for them. All went well until I showed Matthew some pictures that I took in the afternoon (holes in the sky and stuff) and so Andy got interested and got possession of my phone and scrolled through the contents of my phone.
"He's just browsing to my camera pics.. no worries" I thought.
All of the sudden... "Walao!~ Dolly's not your friend lor! She's your sister lar!!" Andy announced. I stomached my laughter even more when he said that. The few of them then decided that I was to call someone else, and I obliged. Thus Aaron got himself busy once again, stopping at 3 of my contacts which I named Fatty and stopped to ask how I differentiated from the 3 names, after which he got back to work. He finally scrolled to a name of his satisfaction and showed me. -Julia was the name he chose. Dam! Could this be anymore a coincidence? Not wanting the second caller to be another kin of mine, I told him to choose another name, thus letting him conclude that Julia was one of my two sisters~ so we'll just go with that.. lawls!
Not wanting to choose someone I'm too close to, Aaron decided to consult Matthew, who was in the same class as me in Sec3 and Sec4 before choosing the person. Matthew scrolled down the list and stopped at Kai Jun.
"Call this guy. This guy's an ass. Sure give nick hell lots of trouble; lol!" Matthew said with an evil laugh to conclude his imperial verdict of doom.
Kai Jun... Hey I don't mind calling him. His a good classmate of mine back in Sec4. I pressed the call button and the loudspeaker button subsequently as strongly requested by the "audience".
"Yo KJ! Long time no see. Where were you posted to?"
'Har? NP Business *** ( Friends Privacy thus will not disclose further). Whatssup?'
After this the "audience" decide to spice up the conversation a pinch with a kidnapped scenario, me being the hostage. Poor KJ was left asking whats going on, before the call was abruptly ended by Andy(if I'm not wrong). To clear things up I messaged him quickly to explain the situation, to settle any misunderstanding that may have occurred. My risk was over and Matthew wanted to get his done as well. He wanted to finish one round around the school track, thus Zhi Peng and I decided to support him as he ran the round. The whole bunch of us left for the track. Matthew was splendid. Although it was clear that he was reaching his limit nearing the end of the 1 round, he did not slow down his pace. Sjj was at the finish line waiting for the 3 of us. We did a short cheer for Matthew, before catching up with the rest who had proceeded to the basketball court (bball court) while the 3 of us was running.
Andy had already borrowed a ball from one of his friends who was at the court. His friend wanted a break thus our class had possession of half of the bball court and the bball. I have not played bball for a seriously long time. The last time and only time I had touched a bball was during pe in Sec3 when my class was to learn some basic bball throws. Bottom line- I was a totally newbie to the game. The 6 boys present decided to play a match. Andy, Zhi Peng & CK VS Wai hern, Aaron & I while Matthew(too tired after the run), Tricia and Marjorie took a seat at the side of the court to witness the match. Andy was probably the best player throughout the match, scoring point after point effortlessly. Aaron according to Zhi Peng was holding back his talent in bball. Oh well Matthew and Sjj joined in a bit later in the game, and well my team just couldn't score (probably cause I can't shoot well and don't know the rules well enough yet). We ended the game when someone else wanted to use the court, got ourselves some refreshment and then proceeded to get what we needed for the next activity- Mission Impossible.
Mission Impossible: There are four sets stacked chairs, placed at four corners to form a rectangle, with a square tunnel hanging in the middle of the rectangle. The objective of the game is to get as many people across the tunnel as possible without touching the structure or moving the structure. If any of the two mentioned is committed, the whole ct must go out of the hall with whatever equipment that they have brought in, and then start all over again. If successful person sent across the tunnel will earn the respective houses points. Here's a fast sketch of what MI looks like:
I know its a bit ugly but bear with it people. This activity was uber fun. We borrowed a couple of chairs from our designated storage rooms and two canteen benches and also the gardener's hose. At first it was hard to get people across the tunnel with our first plan. We touched the structure time and time again, ran in and out the hall constantly and had a couple of different strategies. It took a while to finally decide that the first plan was the best plan, and while we got used to the first plan, sending people through the tunnel became quite a swift and easy task. I don't want to elaborate further... if you want more detail just msn me.. lol
After MI, the mass dance music was played. All of the students got into position and started dancing the practiced dance moves. Sadly I couldn't find a partner in time thus I solo~ed the whole 3 songs.. which doesn't matter too much. After that was dinner. We had catered food from four seasons and packet drinks which can hardly be found in any grocery stalls. The catered food consisted of fried rice, fish, veg & some king of fish cake. Overall it was quite a satisfying dinner.
After the quick dinner, we headed back to the hall for mass dance. Darn I didn't have a partner again.. Zhi Peng kindly offered Matthew to be my partner when the part where the waltz was going to be performed.. how kind of him yea? After the few minutes of total gayness, the lights when off and the disco ball got the disco fever throughout the hall.
Rules of Disco Night:
-No Breakdance
-No trains
-blah blah blah ...etc
Darn no train huh? Andy and Aaron decided to come up with something similar to the train and our class started crashing into other ct groups. I got lost from the pack halfway =.=" Hell it was sure a hard time locating the pack again. Overall I didn't manage to get into disco mood.. sad eh? Ah I missed out the prize presentation which was b4 the mass dance... ah heck who cares yea??
Supper was suppose to be at chom chom over at Serangoon Gardens. However the location was scrapped and new get-aways were suggested. (e.g: East Coast Park). In the end we didn't have supper as everyone was tired and didn't want to travel to far away from home. Too bad we didn't book a chalet! Arh well.. there's many other chances...
Looking forward to the LH chalet which is supposedly to be held in june.. gosh its been a long day... and a long entry.. Thats all folks!
