"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.

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...

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.
