Hello, Today I went for the Army Open House! Its really fun :D Personally, I enjoyed the 'climbing over the bars' station. The bars look like typical busstop railings. I liked it because I learnt to climb over railings in a new fashion. First bending my body over until it looks like an inverted 'V' then grab the bottom bar with the right hand, cling tightly to the top bar with your left. Then throw your body forward!
Oh, I tried it for alomst 10 attempts. My dad and my sister were queuing for the rope course, he told me my sister was laughing at my silly actions because my hands were too short to reach the bottom bar. It is, really too short. Then I had to swing my lower body, swing, swing and swing.
Then my second favourite thing of the day would be playing the 'Gunner' at the Signals. Its like playing a video game, and u shoot the enemy tankers down ! WOW. I would really like to be a soldier if i get to do this everyday. Thrillness.
Army Open House IS SO COOLIASTIC. and u don't bother checking the dictionary.
Throughout the Open House, my mind is filled with : Mein Kampf I think I've read too much of IH today. :(

Moments with friends old and new
I haven't been posting for quite some time I realised :)
Time for blog revival!
Right now, I am watching Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
I think its hilarious XD
I finished watching
- Witch and how to build bridges
- Three Questions
- The Annoying Peasant
- French Taunting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9V7zbWNznbs&NR=1
- Holy Hand Grenade
Of which, I find the first four videos most interesting.
Today is the second last day of boarding for this term.
Time seem to pass like the way you watch a resting bird take off.
I think its really quick!
Today, I had fun :)
because 1) I attended Formal Logic lessons. (I had wanted to since start of boarding, but missed it.) and 2) I somewhat felt happy with my classmates as we had a end of term celebration today. :) We had games like Amazing Race (which I missed it for Logic lessons) and Twister while the rest are playing and singing along with the guitar. Amazing Race as my friends described it, is rather fun! They had to run around, stuff many marshmallows (big ones, mind you!) in their mouth and others had to guess what they were speaking. Also, they ate CHILLI OREOS. XD
I'll give today 4.5 smiles out of 5.
Today, many students from my cohort went for the Army Camp Open Day. One of my classmates, RuiZhi seem to have enjoyed it particularly much. He seem like the only one that participated in the games, because when I saw him I was laughing so loudly!
Do you know what made me laugh so loudly?
The camouflage paint on his face! He looks like a watermelon with 3 beige holes (mainly on the spectacles, and his mouth) among a face of green and dark green lines. I thought he went for drama. My friend seem surprised at my reaction. XD
Its really hilarious because I have never seen something really like it.
And I have this friend from 305 who has so much in common with me XD
I think we have the same kinda looks (some teachers thought we are each other), hairstyle, black phones, height (150cm LOLS!), ambitions, Astar science awardee, AND ECAREER test CAREER generated.
HAHA! as we were talking to Mr Tan / Dr Tan (because he is Mrs Tan's husband and he has a Ph.D.) we found out that our ecareer test results were the same. HAHA!
I'll post our pictures someday.
Shooting:
Coach Zhang is nagging at me for being such a practical spender. I don't buy new rifle, I don't want a shoulder piece, I don't want to go on the China Trip. Thats because I think I can do it without splurging on such high-end stuff. Always make me seem like a stingy young girl who refuses to part with her PARENTS money for equipments. tsk. That irritates me a lot. Also, today she sees my card and passes it back to me without any comments. That irritates me too. For today's training, my second card was the best. but I am not happy with it still.
I think without the constant guidance of a coach (like Joseline) I would lack the diligence to remember to check my alignment, relationship, and stuff. Instead I get the habit of aiming at the card and shoot out a 10 because of it. I find that nothing essential to me (center of gravity and trigger firm)is achieved. All is seen is just a meaningless bullseye. I feel that I really need to fit more keywords into my head so that I can concentrate. And yesterday's Internals.. I didn't set a target I wanted to reach for myself. I think its like a 'just shoot because you have to' kind of shoot. Its a bad mentality to me. Moreover, I was held back by a leaders in boarding lecture and was approximately 20 minutes late for my detail. I quickly shot my sighters and did not care more about it (I should!). In the end.. 381 ): ( 96 97 96 92 ) I shot an 8 at the last series.
Zhong Yi can really nag at me to finish my projects and homework.
Go study,
Wenying
Oh! I really want to thank my JiesandMeis for their company on Monday.
Geokmin, Clock, Cecilia, Bernice, Weili came over to my house. We had a great time together. All were late, but Bernice and Weili was the earliest of the latest! Mindy and Clock were in cahoots as they cheated me saying that they bought lunch and had to eat it first. But to my surprise, it was a pleasant chocolate cake! The cheating is not over yet. I was even gullible to believe it was Weili's birthday! HAHA, but I really really did not expect it.
The cake was for Bernice and I. (since we are the september babies, she is 9th and I'm 10th)
At that moment, I felt a familiar feeling of warmth. Just like the way I used to feel it when I'm with you girls last year. We sang song, ate cakes, drank sprite, laughed a lot, camwhored, played with ribbon, guzheng!, and chat more. What more can I say?
Later, we hit the movies at Plaza Singapura with yuhui, minus clock (she had her passport business) and we watched : A Proposal, it cost me $6.50. It was a cool movie. I'd rate it 3/5, since the scenes are quite predictable. I think the girl's personality (work) is maybe a bit like mine.. ._.
Then we played at the arcade! I spent five dollars on games that are less than one minute. (CECILIA, REMEMBER THE HOUSE OF THE DEAD 4!) OMG, haha the house of the dead!
It was the first time I was playing this game and ITS SO EXCITING XD
BOth she and I are noobs at it. Being a shooter doesn't give u an advantage at such games, because u shoot stationary targets, not jumping zombies. so.... I was so enraptured at the graphics that I didnt even aim while I shot! I was just pointing the gun, using my right hand at the zombie and spammed the trigger using my left hand. Wooo~~~
I love you to the end of time. JIE MEI MEN ! <3>
Teachers day I went out to Macs with Jia en, Joey, Rachel, Clock, Xian Ting. :) But i didn't go back to xinmin. everyone was heading in the other direction of the gate already. If i went there, it would be pointless. Till Next time :}
Then i went out with the YCK 6/1'06 friends. I think I can blend in quite well with them! XD
Its realy fun to hang out with old friends.
We went to IMH too. (Institute of Mental Hospital)
To play basketball!
HAHA you must be think why there of all places!
because we never been there to play bball before.
and we played will the weather forbid us to. (it started to drizzle)
wait tilll next time for pictures!
