Letters to God.
Went to support Anders at his basketball tournament today. Got a morning call from him at around 5.50am... Surprisingly, I was able to hop out of bed despite the fact that I went to bed at 2am.
On the way to Orchard, Vincent text-ed me to tell me that he can't make it. =(
Met Anders at Orchard. He was kinda disappointed cos his team bailed out on him. Poor guy... Wondered if he can even play seeing that he doesn't have any team anymore.
Reached the School of Physical Education where Anders got news that he's able to join the group that he formed a week or so ago. Waited for a looong time for them to play. Butt cramp, leg cramp. In addition to that, I was nodding off due to more than a month's lack of sleep. Managed to keep awake till Anders' group was up to play. Anders shot two hoops. One 3-pointer, and one normal one (Forgot what you call that.). They were actually leading 5-1. But suddenly, the other team cauught up. It was a draw in the end (5-5) and the other team won with the free throw. Ah well, It was a close match though and Anders' team did much much better than the other group in my opinion. The guys were disappointed in a way but they got over it soon.
..Not.
They started talking about it from the court all the way to the place where we had lunch, during lunch, and after lunch (for awhile). They even blamed the ground for being too slippery!!! Haha... How cute is that?
Took a bus to the Heeren where Anders went to wash up. Went window shopping around and spotted potential items for Ain's birthday present. Then Anders, Ong (His friend), Cedric and I took a bus to Changi Airport where we all slept along the way. After an hour or so on the bus, we FINALLY reached the Airport where we rushed to take the train to the Expo. Met Vincent at the station and then went to meet Cindy and the rest at the Foodcourt. Had my first ever B.S. lesson one-on-one with Cindy before heading to the hall.
Had dinner. Burger King once again. Talked alot of crap over dinner. I started feeling sick for some reason. Too much Pepsi I guess... =/ Asked Vincent and Anders if they want to catch a movie on Sunday.
Headed home with WeiShan. Waited for her at City Hall for 15mins cos I took the train a bit too early. After meeting up with her, we took the same train back. Anders called halfway to ask if I'm home yet and to ask about the movie.
Reached home, played with Holden for awhile before hopping on the computer. Checked the times out for the movie, Eight Below. Got pretty excited when I heard about the M.I.T. meeting on Tuesday, gonna meet the whole M.I.T. OGLs once again. Weee...!
Here are some pictures taken today. Enjoy.

Stop, turn, take a look around.
We had the trial run for Xtreme Venture today. I was one of the Station Masters along with Firdaus. We were in-charge of the game called "Bartender's Cup". You can say that we spent 3/4 of the time stoning there, waiting for teams to come (there were only 3 teams).
Firdaus started getting all emo while waiting and started singing "I won't see you tonight Part 1" by Avenged Sevenfold whilst drawing this:
If you can't figure out what the word is, it's "Death".
Now tell me how emo is that?
Haha... Anyways, through the waiting and boredom, Firdaus and I got to know each other a lil better. We talked and talked and kept each other company whilst swatting the flies away. Really enjoyed talking to that guy. =)
Went for my first ever I/C meeting (I replaced Hairul and Rico for that session as Rico has an eye infection while Hairul was tired and wanted to go home early for the proposal.). I kinda felt out of place there as I wasn't an I/C in the first place to start with. But I guess I warmed up a lil, but not too much to be fully comfortable amongst everyone. Haha... I guess it's just human to have felt that way. ;)
Went to S11 for dinner. Messed around with Kamal, Yew King, Mervyn and Eileen Neo. I found out that Rico won't be back tomorrow (Thursday), but only one and a half week later. Got a minor heart attack... Ahhhh... Then Eileen and I decided to scare Xavier (Our Overall Event Advisor). So when Xavier returned with his tray of food, I beckoned him over and was like, "Ni Ok Mah?" ("Are you ok?") in Mandarin as that is his most commonly used line. Then I asked again, "Ni really Ok Mah?" ("Are you really ok?") And he gave me that -_-'' look and started to walk away. Then Eileen dropped the bomb on him.
"Rico won't be coming back tomorrow, he'll only be back one and a half week later..."
*Sudden Silence*
"Ok, Wo Xian Jai Zhen De Bu Ok" ("Ok, now I'm not ok")
*Walks to table, rests tray on table, walks back*
Xavier came back with a worried face and asked us about Rico, and stuff. Got updated, told us what to do and went back to his seat.
I dared Mervyn to eat a weird combination of chilli, soy sauce, "atapchi", curry. He ate it, yes. Then I had to try it and be dumb.
It tasted HORRIBLE! I swear... First, I felt how sour it was, then when the different stuff began to sink in, i felt the spiciness of the chilli and nearly threw up. In addition to that, I didn't have any water at hand with me and I had to drink some cherry water from the remains of some desert (don't know what's it called). Man...
Rico come back as soon as possible please please please... BandzOut 2006/07 needs you really. Get well soon dude. =)

Question Everything.
Spent quality time with my cousins today. Nice change from spending time with friends.
Friends... Friends... Friends...
Have been seeing the same faces for the past month or so already. I miss my family like adkjhfajkdhfajkdfjkd!!!!!!!!!!
People ask me if I would choose not to join the camp if I could turn back time.
Hell no.
I joined the camp and I'll stick to it till the end. Ex-co or not.
Kamal told me to show people what I really got. Hate being in the shadows, as a supportive character. But I guess, I'm good at it...
I guess the only people that I want to talk to at the moment are [According to rank]:
1) My family
2) My freshies. MIT0602 I miss you like crazy.
3) Jayashree
4) My Homegirl
5) Some of the seniors that I always talk to. Yep, you guys are fun...
6) Ain, EmoBoy
7) Yew King
8) Wee Kiat a.k.a. Joseph
9) Sean, Swee Hong
10) Holden, my doggy.
The rest of you can shove aside. =)
Sorry but there are moments in your life when whatever a particular person says to you, as long as you don't feel like talking to him/her, it becomes offensive and irritating. Ah well, life... Humans... We all would crack and shatter at one point. Too bad it's not my time now.
And how irritating is it to have a friend of yours give you the feeling that he/she is acting in a certain way just to gain some attention and symphaty?
On a lighter note, let me talk about the awesome, magnificent dinner I had with my cousins and aunt and uncle.
Went to Suntec's Kushin Bo for the buffet. Started on the crabs... Oh man... They're good... Oh oh oh! The salmon was mm mm mm yummehhh...!!! And if you've been to Kushin Bo's before, you know that announcement for the special stuff? Yeah, the song would pop up first, then a woman would announce that they're having lobsters, for the first 40 customers or something. Well, I think Nicholas, my brother, developed a special skill to fly to that place the minute he hears the song. What I would call a true blue, typical Singaporean. Hahaha... Went LAN-ing after dinner. 4 of us against Gregory. Got trashed. True blue n00bs haha... But hey, we did well as n00bs. =) Chatted about everything on the way home in the car.
Oh man... I miss my cousins now... Even as I type...

Weird dreams
Just woke up from this weird weird dream...
I dreamt that I died.
That dream was super messy, and super noisy for some reason.
One minute I was in a car with my brother and mother. Then the three of us were brought to the police station. And I heard the word, "Night riders" being mentioned. Then my mum went into the police station and my brother and I stayed in the car. After a long wait, I decided to go into the station. The min I stepped in the station, it became a freakin supermarket!!! [???] Then I spotted my mum and auntie Emma. [???] My mum pulled me aside and asked me to pretend to cry over a packet of seaweed. WTF?!?!?! Well so I acted pathetic. Then I got comforted by some police officer.
Then it gets weird-er.
I was suddenly all alone, the car that we had was gone. So I "stole" a car. Before I could gain access to the car, I had to unlock the sterring wheel lock that seemed pretty easy for me cos I seemes to have heard what some police officers were saying. So when I gained access of the car, I started driving and suddenly I was on a bicycle in this place that I don't really know. I rode past a woman and man. The woman was supposedly my mother. All of a sudden, I was alive?
Then I woke up.
Freaky as it is it had this enlightening touch to it.

Sucide Notes And Butterfly Kisses
Sore eyes... Or should I say itchy eyes... I don't know if I should help out with the props today cos my eyes always seem to itch whenever i get close to the paint and stuff.
But the props are more or less due on Monday... The orientation starts on Wednesday...
I better go today...
Had dinner with some of the usual people after we moved the props from school to Mervyn's house... Took us all nearly an hour or maybe less cos the props are HUUUUGGGGEEEE!!! Trust me... And it's not as if we can fold it or anything. Senior Ridzman, Senior Mervyn and Senior Andrew were with us from the minute we started moving the props to the min we finished moving the props so a huge Thank You to them. =)
Had dinner at S11. Senior Mervyn and Senior Anndrew joined us. Shared a claypot with Mervyn. I never felt so hungry, and thirsty... Then Nicklaus HAD to pick up a bottle, place it in the center of the table and start the oh so dreaded Truth or Dare game... Senior Mervyn and Senior Andrew added this interesting twist to the game. Some of us had to name three OGLs/Ex-Cos that we would kiss, or three OGLs/Ex-Cos that we find irritating or three OGLs/Ex-Cos that we would court. I got the "Three Ex-Cos that you find irritating" at first but being the nice girl that I am, *cough* *cough* and seriously, I don't find any of the Ex-Cos irritating whatsoever. So they switched my question to, "Which OGL would you kiss... In order of rank." Holy crap... I should have stuck to the first one... As I was thinking of an answer... Which I already actually had in my head, I had like 9 pairs of eyes piercing into me. Nicklaus and Ain especially... So in the end, I came up with these three guys and the first one was utter bullshit cos yeah I guess I fucked the ranking up on purpose. [shifty]
After all the questions was asked, we started walking to the MRT station and Senior Mervyn and Senior Andrew was informed of my lil secret... So now I have about... 14 of my buddies, including the Ex-Cos who knows... Jeez... It's not much of a secret now eh? Gosh...
Anyways I'm kinda stuck with this lil delimma... Even after we're all off-tag, I still feel this need to call the Ex-Cos Senior [inssert name here]. I guess maybe I'm just too used to it already and it's also a form of respect. [???] Even if we're off-tag... Oh well, The Ex-Cos are really awesome people and I'm hella glad that I joined Camp Eagles in the first place. =)
Better rush to meet Kamal now.
Take care all!
