the one where i recap my week.. so SLEEPY..

awakened at 3 on friday by longteng asking whether i wanted to join them for shopping at bugis before going down for carolling.

do i look like i would pass up on an opportunity for a free ride? nope *grins*

tagged along with longteng, shilun and shaopeng as they shopped for christmas presents. then rina came along and i went with her to get her christmas present for longteng. haha she was so secretive it was quite obvious what she was doing...

hungry after that, so we went to eat chicken rice at some shophouse place.

it was already 5.20pm.

we were supposed to meet for choir at 5.30pm.

and we had just had a 'discipline' talk the day before.

in a start i noticed that i was the only freshie amongst the yr3s.

talk about attitude. and they kept reassuring me that it was ok as long as i walked in together with them but doesnt that make it like worse?! lol.

so we strolled in at 6pm

questioned by brandon, rina simply told him we had taken longteng's car and he straightaway nodded like he understood.

it rocks to be a senior.

went to eat at some noodle place at suntec after carolling.

short kiat ordered a kid's meal. hilarious.

then to bugis shaw to watch the chronicles of narnia pretty good. 3.5 stars.

reached home ard 3plus. knocked out.

saturday. dinnerd at out of the pan.

walked aimlessly to esplanade. it was so chock-full of people it was crazy.

saw jocelyn n sigmund.

decided to watch king kong at marina square.

did our christmas countdown in front of marina square. plus our wonderful rendition of merry christmas.

king kong was boring. except for the scary natives. 2.5 stars.

loser weiling actually cried. *snickers* it wasnt even sad for crying out loud! (pun fully intended.)

reached back hall ard 4.15am.

last day of carolling yesterday!!

went out shopping with ah wen first.

got my pretty pink adidas cap. plus a tube top. and a sorta sweater from mango. and face towels. and my pouch.

i dont know how much i spent and i seriously dont wanna know. hah.

on time for carolling! for the first time on the last day. lol.

went to chomp chomp for dinner after that.

ordered so much food.

im becoming fat. and i have a sneaking that's all part of their plan. hmm.

staggered home for mahjong. used to think that i was losing because i owed ppl money. apparently tts not true cos i was the big winner yesterday!

finally slept at 530am.

woke up at like 11 when my parents came to hall to pass me the sim card.

stupid kolay! i dont even wanna repeat what happened.

  the one where i comment on our week... the start of an eventful week.

after ih on tuesday i had to rush down for carolling.

same on weds. had driving until 1plus thn came back to hall to sleep before going down for carolling again.

carolling is tiring.

dinner-ed with amanda and cindy lim and gerri. went back on mrt together with them plus huimin and changfan.

came back and played the 'either/or' game with weiling. hahahaha. until we came across one that was so diff to choose that we rushed over to swan's room to force her to make a choice. hahaha. and ended up gossiping in her room for 1.5hrs. until longteng, william and shaopeng came back from pubbing at mount faber. talked sommore outside swan's room until her neighbour came opening her door to glare at us. what nerve.

yesterday we were all zonked out and dazed after choir. dinnered abit with geri, shilun and william. came back all tired and drained. went to help robin paint the banner for publications. it'a quite sad to be painting a banner all by yourself especially when u're the publications head and have so many subcommers under you. so i went to help him but essentially he was doing everything; i was just painting in the emulsion :P haha.

really tired after that. but hungry too. weiling came back from hockey training around 2plus and i was already knocked out on the bed. wanted to ask her to buy something back for me since she was going out for supper, so there i was all nicely tucked into bed and reading a book and trying not to fall asleep while waiting for weiling to finish bathing. my biggest mistake was not shutting the door after weiling left it open.

cos shao peng suddenly appeared in the doorway. and walked right in.

followed shortly by shilun.

and then longteng.

and i knew my good time had come to an end.

they made me go out for supper with them plus william wee and william pres.

tiredddd.

all of us were actually. tired and hungry. could hardly keep my eyes open while eating my prata and noodles.

today was better. after carolling a whole bunch of us went out for dinner. tiff, cindy lee, cindy lim and me were in longteng's car; weiling, william, shilun and rebecca were in gavin's car.

had beef hor fun at geylang.

walked around abit to see the proverbial 'fishtanks'.

went to deska road to see the old transvesites. were just about to enter the alley when we were called back by the people who were keeping a lookout for the alley. mean-looking pudgy old men who hollered at us. bloodyass pimps.

came back for chocolate tangyuan courtesy of weihong!! apparently today is the day for eating tangyuans...? *shrugs* i just like them.. :)

really good. all thumbs up.

they all gathered in the room; short kiat,both cindys, swannie, longteng, yiling, rongshan n her bf, weihong and later, jael and welly. plus weiling n me it was really a crowd.

after they had all left, shilun, william and shaopeng came over to finish up the tangyuan.

they were really really good im telling you.

so we talked all the way until now. until they left to sleep. shilun and william kept saying they couldnt take it anymore and wanted to sleep; but they still stuck around. and we had to entertain them even though i was feeling bloody sleepy myself.

shilun was laughing so hard he had to lie on the floor. and knocked his head on the kettle. lol. that was funny.

now im really dozing off...  ¶ 3:41 AM 0 Comments

  the one where we win hall VII... yayness!! we're into quarters!!  ¶ 3:08 PM 0 Comments

  the one where i sleep the whole day through... hmm i should start from our 2nd match on saturday..

well we beat hall 15. thanks to kc's ploy. i think. but then again it was left to the mixed doubles to be the decider. this time i was to partner kc. weihong's lucky his opponent was way off-form that day. as was kc. as was i. thank goodness we managed to win even though the score was once again bloody close. 21-17 i think.

amanda's junior from hall 15, the supposedly strongest player played singles against our totally-cannot-play girl. in the middle of the match she turned around and asked amanda whether we didnt have enough players. that was so mean. amanda was quite pissed.

so we're gonna meet hall 7 again tomorrow. i know we can beat them but then again...

carolling started yesterday. super tiring. and painful. after that rushed back to hall in robin's car. robin's really sweet; he thought i wanted to go back home and offered to wait until 12 for me. awww. but i think im gonna have to stay in hall this whole week. again. what's new.

didnt go for carolling today. i couldnt sleep last night cos it was so hot and i felt so horribly uncomfortable today i decided not to go for carolling in case i fall sick and i still have a match tomorrow.

finished my stage 3 driving today!! stage 3 evaluation on weds. eeks..scary!!

have to meet at 9 tomorrow. i guess that means no mahjong session tonight. BAH.

been going out for meals alot lately in longteng's car with him, weiling, william, sp and kc. i dont know i think kc doesnt like me :( weiling says he's damn hilarious and all but when im there he's really quiet and it's rather awkward. weiling says he's afraid of me cos im fierce; wth?! im not! well even if i am i havent done anything to him. im waaaaay fiercer to se bei bei. and william and sp are ok. so now im starting to feel bad cos they are ultimately kc's clique and it's unfair for him to be uncomfortable around his friends just because im there. but the thing is he isnt like this during trainings. he's...normal; he scolds me, well ok not exactly scold, just keeps telling me to do things, telling me to run, takes jibes at me...well just normal. oh but he did mention that i always blackface him during trainings so now he just calls them "practices". haha. like it makes a difference. then when i laugh during trainings he says im crazy. M*cough*ay*cough*ia*cough*s...then he goes all silent out of trainings...

maybe i should hang out less with them.

what's worse it that i notice these things and it makes me feel uneasy.  ¶ 8:15 PM 0 Comments

  the one where i regret... im really really quite upset.

we lost our first badminton match 3-2 to hall 7.

but u have no idea how freaking close it was.

mine was the last match. mixed doubles with weihong.

we were playing 1 set 21 points.

it went to a deuce.

we lost 22-23.

and we lost it all.

cos next match is against hall 15. and they're even tougher to beat.

fucking pissed with it all. made alot of stupid errors in the beginning. fuck it.

but quite pleased with one of the shots i made. weihong had to dive to save a shot so i was left to cover the court. and i made it count. thank goodness for that.

so many times i missed the shuttle while trying to tap. fuck.

the disappointment was evident but cos it was such a tight game it could go either way. apparently alot of people were watching our match cos it was the most exciting of all; se bei bei even put off going to the toilet until we had finished the match.

glad we could be of entertainment. right.

and they were all so nice about it. i think weihong was worried that i would be upset so he kept putting his arm around me and telling me it was all right and tried to joke. so did robin. and even zhi wei. the zhi wei who tells me i dont move around in court told me i was damn zai during the last 5 balls.

i feel sorry for khai chien. it's quite obvious that he was upset cos we really could have won this but then again...it's all in the lineup and the fortunes. and it so happens that there's an influx of badminton players in ntu this year.

thank u all but the fact remains that we lost.

we lost the whole match by a single point.

FUCK  ¶ 6:22 PM 0 Comments

  the one where i went to old changi hospital... there are some things im not very happy with but dont think appropriate to blog.

raffles hall exchange on saturday. badminton. had to lunch with all the raffles hall people. in the morning they told us to clap to welcome the handsome guys from raffles hall. we stopped clapping. seriously im so so so thankful to be staying in hall 11 cos in comparison, raffles hall is really quite *ahem*..

chalet at ntu's staff chalet. with sigmund's parents. bloody weird. watched emily rose halfway before dropping off.

went back sunday afternoon cos i had to go for the soka concert at night. HAD to bump into kc at hall 2.

met weiling at redhill at 5 to wait for longteng to drive us there. apparently kc was going to and we had to wait for him too. seriously that person has zero fashion sense; well at least he wasnt wearing a hall t-shirt.

met william wee and william pres at tampines mall's bk for dinner before going for the concert. quite alot of hall people were there: both williams, geraldine, longteng, kc, shilun, shao peng and even yiling. looks like william pres and geraldine are really doing their jobs. lol.

went to changi for nasi lemak and to do some trans-watching sans gerri and yiling. it was still early so they decided to explore changi hospital. i wasnt afraid but i didnt really wanna go cos it's best to avoid these places. but went in the end cos it beat staying alone in the car. anyway met another group of 3 people there so we all decided to go together. wasnt really scary, nothing happened but after that weiling got the creeps. weiling who was so enthusiastic about exploring every corridor.

after that went back to changi point to have a drink and to just talk and watch tv, together with the chance to see some tranvesites.

reached home around 130am, which was quite early considering all that we had done. lol.

and now im late for badminton training...  ¶ 4:40 PM 0 Comments

  the one where i had my first clubbing experience... back from the queen of queens pageant at DXO. and no destiny didnt win but she got third so it wasnt all that bad =)

oh the goodie bag was fab.

and the freebies too.

but it ended so early! and our legs were sore from all the standing. the pageant ended around 930pm; we lingered around until about 10 before deciding that it was too boring with no dancing or anything going on. so like a re-run of prom night we went over to the area outside the esplanade with bottled drinks a la the eighties. fun!!

weiling reached around 11 when lz n i were waiting for a cab. so tempted to join them and hitch a ride back with se bei bei but then again i decided against it...couldnt possibly leave lizhen alone waiting for a taxi..

well next time then!! as long as there's a car there shouldnt be a problem cos living in hall really rocks!! can go back as late as we want and maybe even stop over for frog leg porridge or beef hor fun...

omg im drooling already. again.  ¶ 1:24 AM 0 Comments
