1 Star Kayking Course - Day 2

Right so day 2. Started off early again, sigh. MRT drama with jia zhen. Don't ask. We're just not good at coordinating mrt stunts. So we were late. Again. But i think the guy's used to us being late haha. He asked us "who was late this time?" Eileen, jz and me refused to answer him. We just said we will not sabo each other.

So off we headed off to the dirty water again for our second day of kayaking. Aiyo, drama with the kayaks again. Felt so pathetic. -_- Everyone headed off in their single kayaks so fast, so i had to pair up with someone else. Aiyo i dare not pair up with the capsize fella. He's damm funny. Later i'll explain. And you'll see why i'm lucky not to have him. Haha OOPS. Anyway i paired up with this super zai guy. Wah heng. Haha. But he seems to have a lot of breath. Constantly counting "left, right, left, right, left, right", like not tired. A bit noisy haha but he's fun. At least he entertained me. It was have been worse if my partner is super quiet, then wah awkwardness!!

We all learnt more technical skills. Goodness, so tiring. I really dislike the side movement --> The draw stroke, and the classical draw etc. YUCKS. Couldn't get it for so long. But of course, yours truly got it at the last moment, and out of pure excitement, yelled that "i moved!!" and embarrassed myself. again.

Day 2 was more of learning how to rescue people. It was super crappy. I really hated the rescue thing. I know the rest did too, because they were so tired, poor people. But i hated it for a different reason.

1) i didn't learn anything
2) i felt super pathetic, like a loner. zzzz

Cause we had to practice the rescue stunt in groups of three. There were ten of us, so guess who was the last one? Sitting at some random corner of the beach, playing with litter in the water. -.- Usually when Eileen and Jz are out in the water, i watch them and learn. But this time, they were so far out in the river i couldn't even see what they were doing. So die lor. Sit at some corner and sleep. zzz when everyone came back, they were all too tired to redo the rescue thing with me. So basically i learnt how to be a VICTIM only, not how to rescue use. And bear in mind that being the victim requires me to CAPSIZE. Again. Not something that i like to do. I mean i like dipping in the water, dirty water and all, but i don't like somersaulting in it. Pah. Eileen was part of my rescue team by the way. See? A good girlfriend (her) always rescues her boyfriend (me) ! Okay jz "kind of" recused me too, since she was in the doubles with eileen. She was the one who held all the paddles. The other guy who rescued me was the fella who constantly capsizes. Zzz i also scared. haha he was with another fella in the doubles, but this one didn't help. Just eye power me only. Haha technically cannot help much, too far behind.

Anyway, we did a few nonsensical stuff. Such as playing water polo with one guy's crocs slippers, and rafting up for all of us to stand up together. Zzz we never managed to get the whole team to stand up. Cause people kept capsizing all the time. I was one of the few. I was holding on to jz's hand, when i lost my balance and fell into the water. I THOUGHT i fell into the water, but eileen and jz said i JUMPED in. I guess i must have been too panicky and reflex jumped in. Eileen was funny. Haha she was wobbling, and kept standing up, and squatting down. The fella who always capsizes for no rhyme of reason was beside her in a doubles kayak, with another guy. Don't know what happened, one moment eileen was standing up with them beside her, the next moment eileen was squatting and they capsized. Ahahahaha shoot. You really wonder how they capsize. And the fella's partner said "wo shi wu gu de!!" ahahahaha damm funny. Now what did i tell you? Suay to partner the capsize king right? Hahahha not to be mean la, but he really does capsizes every few moments. Don't know how he managed to capsize also.

Oh yeah, we rafted up to change kayaks too, meaning eileen and jz, who were in the doubles, changed to single kayaks. Eileen took some guy's kayak, and jz took mine. While exchanging with jz, i was so scared i would capsize, i just plonk plonk into her hole, in the process hitting both my knees against the edge. WAH PAING. now blue black.

So after that, we hung around in the water, stagnant. Eileen and me were bored, and we were simply drifting near the shore. That silly woman, called me. So i turned around the talk to her, and found myself drinking kallang's water. SHE SPLASHED ME!!! Grrrr... gotta learn how to do that. Silly brown hair guy was laughing at me. And he's the one who's always laughing at me la! I always close my eyes when i collide with people. First day i closed both eyes, second day i close one. So he told me "wah good improvement. Now close one eye only". Zzzz -_________- But he's one of the few who entertained me la. Otherwise i will be super bored.

Ahh nearly forgot. Our instructor made the whole team mass capsize, and think of ways to rescue ourselves. Wah piang. Haha, capsize, AGAIN!!! ROAR! Somersaulted, drank water again. What else is new? I was the first girl to be rescued. It was actually jz's kayak, but jz and eileen didn't want to climb up la. Wah sigh. So i malued myself again by attempting to assist in the rescue, but to no avail. In fact, i was quite useless -.- The only thing i was good for was to help carry paddles. Zzzz...

Next was the water polo game. HELLO PEOPLE! Haha eileen and my team WON!! Wahahaha hee! Jz was in the other team. Show me an "L" jz! Hahahhaa okay okay won't be so mean. We have tactics okay. Hahaha fun. =) But wah, chiong like mad. They anyhow bang the kayak here and there. Super jia lact.

I guess that was about it for that day. At the end of the whole thing, i played with the dog there. Super sweetie pie. It's a girl =) Sigh... We used the hose to bathe ourselves. We couldn't tahan the showers there, so we walked to the park to shower instead. Wah super sickening. Some random indian worker came into the LADIES' TOILET and stared at me la. While i was wearing my swimming costume alone!! -cries- feel so violated. He saw my bare legs and arms and all. sniff. Sigh, oh well. Whatever. Hope he goes blind one day.Well we changed and had dinner at geylang. Was starving by then. Walked past don't know how many lorongs to eat nice food, which in the end was SUPER spicy. Lucky the soya bean and you tiao made up for it. =)

If you want to eat nice bean curd and soya bean, go to geylang lorang 27A. It's called Yong He something something. It's a whole coffee shop. VERY NICE... =)

Yep we've come to the end of it all! We're gonna get our 1 star certificate soon! Can't wait! Maybe, just maybe, we'll go for the 2 star kayaking course as well! Wahahhaa, but as for the 4 and 5 star one, erm overseas, er... maybe not. Er.. haha!!

I think this course was worth it la, in terms of the certificate, and we DID learn stuff. More than we ever could in any camp. Only thing was that i felt a bit pathetic sometimes, but no matter. I enjoyed the single kayak =) Sigh happy. FULFILLED!

Congrats to Eileen, Jia Zhen, and Me! The kayaking sopranos! -_- hahaha

1 Star Kayking Course - Day 1

Right, so Jia Zhen, Eileen and myself signed up for the 1 star kayaking course. FINALLY. Haha after we've been planning to kayal since... the beginning of time? Sadly, Cherie couldn't make it. We really must find out if it is neccessary for EVERY single "kayaker" MUST have be certified with the 1 Star thing in order to kayak, or can just one person be certified? ANYWAY, today was day 1.

I went to bed at 3 plus in the morning, but i fianlly fell asleep around 5? SIGH, and i had to wake up at 7.00am in order to make it to Kallang Mrt station by 8.30am. SUPERBLY EARLY snoreeeesss... And guess what? I woke up at 6.50am. Why? Cause i didn't set my alarm properly. The alarm hand was set at slightly before the number 7 on the clock. Sickening. Wo hai zi ji (-.-)

Guess what? We were late anyway haha. We reached Kallang around 8.50am. OH WELL.

We started off with learning how to use the paddle and the kayak. Aiyoo. Three of us can't fit into one kayak, so Eileen partnered Jia Zhen. AND GUESS WHERE I LANDED UP? With the instructor. Darn. Haha. Was wondering if that's good or bad, i decided it's bad. Why?

1) Intimidating. Cannot have fun. Must paddle nicely with the instructor, who sat in front. I was at the back.
2) As an instructor, she has to make sure everyone's doing the right thing. So she had to look out for the slower ones. So. i didn't paddle much. I just sat there, while she instructed a particular kayak which was constantly going in the wrong direction.

That kayak was a two seater one by the way. (funny. As i'm typing this, i feel like i'm rocking on the choppy sea. Headache.) I realized why they had so much problems. They were not coordinating. That's why i think individual kayaks are more fun. I means it's nice if you get to partner a friend and kayak together, but it's so difficult to coordinate. For example, if you suddenly want to turn right, you must tell your partner you are going to turn right, then BOTH turn right together. Wah mah fan. If you're in an individual kayak, you do what you wanna do! Hahhahaa

After drifting in that kayak with the instructor, we did capsize drill.

Capsize Drill
1) Capsize (DOH haha)
2) STAY in the overturned kayak and hug the bottom of the boat, together with the paddle
3) Tap the bottom (top i guess, since it's overturned) of the kayak 3 times
4) slide out of the kayak with the paddle in your hand
5) Shout for help
6) And then swim back to shore with your kayak

I was laughing at Eileen when she tapped the bottom of the kayak 3 times SUPER QUICKLY, like taptaptap! Mind you, it ain't easy staying underwater STILL IN THE KAYAK. My bad for laughing. When it came to my turn, my arms were so short, i could barely hug the whole thing to reach the bottom. So my taps were like --> tap... Hand slip... tap tap tap... slip... forget it. Just get out of the kayak already! THEN...

Wah OHH MY GOODNESS! Blurb blurb blurb. I have this tendencey to somersault under water. So that's what yours truly did when she got out from under the kayak. Somersault. And blurb blurb blurb, all the water went into the nose. WOW. Snorts out water. Ah well. Whatever. Just swim back to shore. Then i realized, wah piang, i wasn't moving. It's super hard to swim with the kayak. So i was told to to backstroke. So i backstroke lor, without looking at the back of me, and backstroked all the way literally to shore. ZZZZZ

Another part of capsize drill was getting back on the boat in deep level, meaning out feet can't touch the ground. ZOMG that was the worse thing ever. I really, had no more strength left. My legs were wobbling. We had to jump up onto the bow of the kayak, and slither our way back to the seat, which isn't near the bow at all, by the way. Gah. Each time i got onto the kayak, ALREADY got ONTO it, i slipped off. Probably about 5 times? It's so hard getting on ONE time, and i had to slip off every single time. Frustrating. Finally got it though! Achievement! Eileen and jia zhen had it harder. Jia zhen didn't manage to complete it, because the string of ther kayak broke, but eileen did it, after quite long. It's REALLY hard. Me and Jia zhen encouraged her at the side ahahaha. See how much we love you?

Had lunch. ARGHH not so nice but we all ate it up, to get energy for the next part of the course!!

YAY! We could re choose our kayaks! Ahahaha hee! I pleadingly asked for the single kayak haha. YAY GOT IT! SO i was on my own! Whoa exhilarating...ly tiring. -_- Gosh, if you thought two people kayak were bad, one is worse!! But like i said, you do what you want ahaha. =)

ahh shiok. The rest of the day was on my own, in my tiny little kayak! A little lonely, but feels so good. After that back pain, legs pain, wrist pain, arm pain, everything pain la. Haha

Worst was yet to come though. When we were done washing up all the kayaks, paddles, and life jackets, AND CHANGED INTO DRY CLOTHES AS WELL,

drip drip POUR POUR MONSOON HAILSTONES...

okay not so exaggerating, but it was really pouring buffalos. The three of us were stranded there for super long... Jia Zhen and i decided to brave the pouring buffalos and went out to scout the area, to see if there were any bus stops nearby. We failed, miserable, and wetly. If was terrible. Kallang FLOODS can. Drainage system is terrible haha.

We were walking in HUGE puddles that might as well have resembled ponds. The grass patches became swamps, the canals rivers, the rives opens seas, the open seas tasunami... okay i'm getting carried away again, but you get the idea. The half the road was flooded, so it was inevitable that we would get SOAKED whenever a car zooms past? ARGHH

We went back really grumpy. And we couldn't find out way out of kallang as well. So we waited there some more, and FINALLY the rain slowed. Thank you Lord. The three gung ho females made their way back home.

Time out people! Muscles aching. I'm still floating on the river. Stupid computer screen making me real dizzy. Good night! Tomorrow's day 2! We'll be learning how to RESCUE people!!

The Rainbow Rangers --> TO THE RESCUE!!

Right... see ya! I love kayaking =) Just don't like the consequences after. hahahaha

18th march 2008

haha i told Jia zhen i wasn't going to blog this til wednesday, but as i was brushing my teeth, i came up with so many points for my mini essay, i just can't resist not putting them down.

What prompted me to blog about this? Honestly? Cherie's post. Haha. Oh a side note, i'm not rebutting her or anything ah, just decided that it's time to share my opinions, and my own personal experiences. I know, and yes, i DO KNOW, many people, and i can go as far to share, the friends i've made throughout my life; every single one of them, think i am rich, and as good as 90 percent of them have said it to my horrified and annoyed face, which i have tried so often to mask it with an "innocent" look. To this bunch of people, loisa has something to say to you! Oh and this is probably from secondary school up. In primary school, i was considered SUPERBLY poor, probably wore tacky clothes (still do haha), and well, a nobody. *rolls eyes* What can i say? I came from a stereotypically rich school. Haha the female version of ACS i guess. haha

ANYWAY. I thought of blogging about my poor humble background, and YES, i came from a superbly humble background, and my parents included. That's probably why they're working so hard to give me everything a parent could give the child they love so dearly. BUT, i shall not. Why? Cause i do not owe anyone anything. I do not have to make myself sound pathetic and pitiful, to PROVE i am not as classy as anyone thinks i am. Logical? logical. Haha

SO. i shall blog about my CURRENT lifestyle, and why i CHOOSE to live my life the way i live it.

I am an only child. I am all my parents have got. Whatever they have, whatever they do, it's for me ONLY. THAT DOES NOT MEAN I AM SPOILT JUST BECAUSE I AM AN ONLY CHILD. Please bear in mind that. I've grown up. I am not afraid to BLOW at you if anyone calls me "spoilt" (because i'm an only child) or "rich" (because i live where i do). Back to the point. I'm the only one, my parents can afford to send me to this school, and pay the ridiculous fees, BECAUSE i am the only one. I have asked them before. If i had a sibling... bye bye UB. If it makes you (whoever is out there spitting fire at me) feel any richer, i wouldn't be able to get this degree if i had the blessings of a sibling.

Moving on. I never thought about my dog as an asset before haha! Cherie mentioned "expensive pet", which reminded me of Pebbles, who btw, just jumped onto my bed to sleep with me. Disgusting, but sweet. ANYWAY. Pebbles is darn expensive to keep. I mean, the price of her alone is -_-. And the constant feeding, and vet bills (vets are CONMEN btw! haha). Sure is pricey. But hey, i NEED company. My parents, working as hard as they do, are not home to play with me. What do you expect me to do? No siblings, cousins all too old. Talk to the plants?? A pet is my life. I need someone to pamper, to love me back unconditionally. a pet is cheaper than a kid. Pebbles is my life. THE love of my life. I'll do anything to keep her. And don't forget, she's 3 years worth of christmas and birthday presents, relatives included. SO.

Next point. I'm actually having fun! hahaha. All the years of frustrations i guess. My life is simple. I do not crave expensive stuff, gadgets, clothes etc. Okay haha of course i want la, but i don't go all out to get it. The stuff i have --> All below a hundred.

Piano, laptop, dog, mp3 player, for goodness sake, my handphone has NEGATIVE value la. They PAY me to get a new phone. -_-

I spend little. And i am happy. My clothes? To date, the most expensive thing i have are two.

1. GB uniform --> Over a hundred in total
2. Blazer --> about a hundred after discount.

Half my wadrobe, costs 1.90 each. Why? From the warehouse sale. People, understand that i am small. Meaning, i can wear the same clothes as i did, in primary school (because my clothes then were oversized anyway). Why should i waste these clothes? If appearances count so much, don't hang out with me. I believe i am a big girl enough, to dress appropriately when need be. For the meantime, i believe friends should accept me as who i am. I wear clothes that make me FEEL comfortable. I can go to all thsoe expensive stores and buy a few nice fashionable clothes. But questions i have to constantly ask myself -->

1. I am shy. Should i outrage my own modesty to wear low cut stuff and short stuff that will make me look good?
2. I am small. Sometimes, even XXS doesn't fit. Bottoms look ridiculous on me. I look like i'm missing half a backside, and my front is oo, don't get me started! hahahaha
3. How often do i wear these out?

Again, my life is simple. I go to school, i hang out with family, at the most boring places, and play with my dog. Go out with friends? But to WHERE? kayaking?? How to wear all these nice stuff out. And i perspire like a mad pig. Don't want to spoil clothes.

I treasure my simplicity. I was raised this way. My money, my future assests of my parents that will go to me one day, is the damm house. THAT, is all i have. If some idiot burns my house down, that's it. I have nothing. Kapish? My parents have chosen to invest in property. That is all. I don't particularly have money to spare everyday -.- Granted, my parents are free and easy with my pocket money, but i am thinking of the future. So i take less. I have a grandpa, who's gonna live for very long. Thank the Lord for that, but also means more expenses. I'm not being mean, it's true. My family is the responsible one for him. I am one child. Responsible for TWO parents. Erm savings people! You know? Better safe than sorry! =)

Note: DO NOT make me compare with you (whoever you are), every little nitty gritty details about our expenses. Don't go that far. Just stop stereotyping me! :)

I love my life the way it is. I'm happy with what i have.

What i am not happy, are people's unneccessary comments, uninvited ones as well, about my financial status and my own "spoilt" personality.

After typing so much, i wonder what's the point of this -.- But since i already typed, might as well post. Otherwise effort wasted.

Dear Cherie, i hope i don't sound like i'm attacking you. I don't mean to. I still love you okay? It just got me thinking that's all. Everyone keeps saying the same thing to me over and over again. Some vicious part of loisa finally snapped! Cool! haha =)

Yep end of long post. Conclusion for today.

I agree there are super giam siap people around who ought to be slapped. As in they are truly kiam. But for those who have reasons, or appear... i don't know. Forgot what i told Jia Zhen just now. But whatever it is, we should never judge, especially by a person's property, and this is a personal reason for myself la.

There are relatively rich people who live in 3 room flats as well!

Be contented with what you have. Maybe, God has blessed us with little (if that's what you think), just so he can bless us with EVEN more in the future! =)

This heart is not
a summer field
and yet...
how dense love's foliage
has grown.

-- Izumi Shikibu

Oh and another one!!

I love you,
Not only for what you are,
But for what i am
When i am with you.

I love you,
Not only for what
You have made yourself,
But for what
You are making of me.

I love you
For that part of me
That you bring out;
I love you
For putting your hand
Into my heaped-up heart
And passing over
All the foolish, weak things
That you can't help
Dimly seeing there,
And for drawing out
Into the light
All the beautiful belongings
That no one else had looked
Quite far enough to find.

I love because you
Are helping me to make
Of the lumber of my life
Not a taven
But a temple;
Out of the works
Of my every day
Not a reproach
But a song.

I love you
Because you have done
More than any creed
Could have done
To make me good,
And more than any fate
Could have done
To make me happy.

You have done it
Without a touch,
Without a word,
Without a sign.
You have done it
By being yourself.
Perhaps that is what
Being a friend meann,
After all.

-- Roy Croft

Makes me wanna cry a little. I think i like the second one best. Yep, my friends are the one who make me the happiest, and make me the saddest too! But these are the feelings i will always cherish. Er makes sense? Aiya, odd. Just feeling a bit.. feelish today. Like feeling a lot. NOT emo, just... okay maybe emo. -.- But emo-ly good. Haha Not the suicidal emo kind. Haha

Thank you for being a friend to me =) And thank you for loving me too! Unless you don't... but if i say you're my friend, i probably love you, so i'll have enough love for the both of us =)

The best friend anyone can have is still the Lord though. He's the life of my life. No one can make me real sad without His permission! =)

Wahhh cherie is horrible hahahaa.. i mean it kindly of course!

Guess what that little dirty poem meant? It ain't about making babies. It's about making SUGAR CAN JUICE. Siann... Literally snorted with laughter in class!!

Anyway, mum read something from a little book of wits today.

Here is it!

There is so much good in the worst of us,
and so much bad in the best of us.
That it won’t do good for any of us,
to talk about the rest of us.


It's so right, right? There's a little bit of good and bad in all of us. We shouldn't point out a splinter in someone's eye, when we have a plank in ours!

Moral of the story? Do not judege. Be kind and patient. Love one another. Yay!

*cheery smile*

12th March 2008

Note to readers: This post is a very naggy long one. If you're not in the mood to read about my frustrations, tune in to the next post of Loisa's. I promise i'll post a happier one. At the moment, need to get this out.

Oh, and bear in mind, i'm not scolding anyone, nor do i wish to offend anyone alright? Loisa still loves all. Moving on...

-->

OOO last night i was so so so very mad. I'm pretty tired right now, but i need to rant and get it out of my system. Hopefully, i'll have to force myself and keep my tongue in check no longer. It's very tiring, to the extent of having to look down and not get pushed into a conversation with whoever it is.

Anyway, projects are starting to kill me. Okay, they killed me long ago, but this time, it's making me feel real sick, and my patience is no longer... I have no idea if i am becoming intolerant, or if i have reached my limit and can no longer turn a blind eye. Make that two blind eyes.

Okay the story behind this -->

My group had a presentation due today. This morning. With a report. But swell, both was incompleted at the time of 12 midnight. So, a few of us had to rush like nuts, and compile everything. Bear in mind that the word "compiling" in this project, includes editting (A LOT OF IT), re-referencing, formatting.... By the time everything was done, it was 5.30am. That was when i went to bed. SNORE. Was typing rubbish to Jocelyn already. Frustrating, really. And at every corner, everyone was still editing their stuff, so files kept coming in. I was so hopping frustrated. My received files alone had 7 files with the SAME NAME, and 5 others files which had content that looked so similar, i had no idea what the changes were. In my school folder, there were 17 documents.

Hoowwww?

Is it just me, or is the standard of work going down, or just went banonkers in this particular project? It seems that in COM 300 and MGM 301, the same thing is going to happen again -_- It's already happening in COM 300 anyway.

Talking about COM 300, the tabulation is so maddening as well. Yes, no one is perfect, but when called to check, why ain't anyone moving to check their own tabulations? In the end, we have to look through everything, re count, by the end of the whole thing... wah fever again.

A person can only open so many tabs and windows, and can compile only so much. Wah after typing this, it reminds me of some random semester when i told myself "NO MORE COMPILING". Now alamak. Can't wait for next semester to be here!!

Alright, back to studying for the upcoming exam! Busy loisa! =)

AHA! I had my first ever pedicure today! Haha courtesy of Angel. Or rather, she persuaded me to do it. It's kinda cool.

Wanna guess what color my toe nails are now? And wanna guess what color Angel's finger and toe nails are? Predictable. Wanna guess what colors we wore today? Hahaha anyone who knows us well, guess away!!

You got it! Green toe nails, green top, and green bag for me! Pink finger nails, pink finger toes, pink top, pink earrings.......... ALL PINK LA! Haha that's angel for you! ahahaha

I was so sian when i met her at the Mrt station. a PINK figure walking to me. Immediate eye sore. Hahahaha no la kidding =P

The world is so small. I met my mum's cousin's wife at the pedicurist. Is pedicurist a real word? Anyway, yeah i did NOT recognize the lady at all! But she kept smiling at me, and she looked vaguely like an old piano teacher of mine. So i grinned back. When her husband came through the door, ALAMAK.

"MY MUM'S COUSIN AH"

-_-

Note to Loisa: Improve facial memory. No sounds wrong. Improve memory of faces. Yeah! =)

5th March 2008

well.. i was dreaming in my sleep last night. And guess what? That's the darnest hour when inspiration comes to me -.-

So here goes! Something i made up, while levitating above my bed. Yeah right.

A love that never happened, a man she never knew
A girl who never understood,why her time was due.

She longed for him, he not at all.
It was coming alright. What was? Her downfall.

So she cried,
for days on end, having lost all pride.

No longer could she smile
She laughed no more
Even her friends could tell.

Then one day, her soul came back,
and she was set free! Amen!

She spread her wings, and flew, and soared,
a fool she was, no more!

Haha okay. Not exactly the best poem i had in mind, BUT. It's been a long time since I'm miss arty literature-ry!

I think i know what started all this poetry thing. CHERIE'S POEM!! Still doesn't make sense to me, but it's pretty easy to remember. And it's kinda cute. Read it!

Hard in in,
Soft out out
In out, in out,
Juice comes out.

Cute right? Haha. It'll stay right in your mind, believe me.

Right. That's all for today! Back to work Loisa! =)
