First trng almost killed me, that only shows how unfit I've become. I promised myself I'd run regularly during the hols, but in the end, I didn't keep to my self-promise. I was so disappointed in my run yesterday. Had a surprise test on our fitness and ball skills, and it really woke me up. Like c'mon! I need to work way harder than this to pass the test man, and not like it was a typically hard test, just that I'm really unfit now. I am ashamed, but I will WORK my ass off to gain back my fitness, to be better than before! HO YEAH!

Looking for Jiemin's hardlens on the field = looking for a needle in a haystack. It was so tough, but after all that work, we still couldn't find it. )):

Testimonial match today at ECP. But we're gonna have another one (: yayy. It was really great fun, playing with the seniors and coaches, juniors and teammates. Had the time of my life, although it was pretty sunny and scorching. Romantic dinner by the beach, with the nice landbreeze and "damn chio" stars filling the sky!

Bus ride home with Amelia Bing Simpson was a terror. Half the time they were kachiau-ing my neck! Eeeeeks! WARNING, my neck is out of bounds. Risk getting your hand 'kiap' ! XD

Its been a horrid week, but its finally over! (:
Exams ended on a much happier note today, skipskipskip the pulling-of-hair part in the hall. Studying with Bing at Esplanade a few times had been rather productive, if you skipskipskip the sleeping-music-eating parts as well. I've maintained very good self control this week by not watching Slam Dunk, partly because Korkor hogged the comp all the time too. Well, midyrs are over and I promise its not gonna be pretty when the grades are out. Oh sheesh whatever, I'll let them deal with me when it comes. :P

Drastic change of plans today. Supposed to have a japalung outing to ECP to scream and cycle. Changed it to a darn long lunch at The Caffe Bar at PP followed by Get Smart at The Grand Cathay. I bet we were all so embarrassing in the cinema, because when we went in, we were the only ones around. I realised something today, wherever we go, noise follows. Hmm I wonder why. Got to try our Many-rounds-of-super-IJ-goodbye-hugs on Bing and Tano, I know they love it! I saw that secret smile on their faces, hahaha! Had a 2 hour long dinner with the sweets, and the most fabulous chat in like ages, all the reminiscing of our past, plus additional gossips! Heehee, I love those guys the ultimate chatty mates! (: A pity the others didn't join us, or else we'll probably tear the house DOWN!

My normal life starts once again. Back to school and training. Oh whee. Oh boy, I just realised I've been seen as a toot-head tapping my mickey mouse pencil box on the bus sensor. Well that's because my ezlink card is inside, all thanks to exam! And I just merely forgot to take it out thats all. XD

I am so NOT supposed to be here now, but instead mugging my brains away because I know I've screwed my other papers to shitscrewedstate already. But I have so many reasons why I wanna shout and scream and kick! I swear I'm going to die of internal stress one day, without even knowing that I'm stress. Geee. I swear its that 'round thing' thats giving me all the pressure. Live up to expectations for that 'round thing' and related stuffs. rawwr I can't wait for Thursday to roar it all out! Okay I better hit the books again or I'll live to regret it.

I give my best.
But sometimes the best is just not enough.
Is it ever?

Aline roars!!
I'm feeling so irritated and angry and freaked out at myself. Whyohwhy!?
I'm such an easily influenced person. I let myself be easily affected by what people tell me. Why do I feel so sad when someone tells me that she is sad? Why do I get angry at the same person someone is angry at too? Why do I let my mind get affected so easily, which in turns affect my whole day. I'll be feeling that bleddy emotion the whole day. I'd rate my day today as 1/10. Felt like I wasted my whole entire freaking day, when I could be so much better off waking up late, and sink myself into the world of Slam Dunk and horrible notes. Rawrrr.

School-studied with some soccer peeps and seniors. Ate at marine terrace and realised walking back is actually pretty near. Discovered the 'shortcut hole' thanks to Xin. My stuffs got stolen by Chua Yan Bing and accomplice Charmaine 'Moon' Ng. My pencil case got stolen again by Xin Yi and accomplices Bethany and Sock. My MP3 died on me. Had to rush home from soccer halfway if not I'll probably get killed. Feeling all pathetic now. ): PW's totally screwed. Weiting and I have a common goal: To slaughter that China Man (Zhong Guo Ren) when he decides to show his face. Can't do EOM and shan't do EOM. Life sucks take drugs and throw 10000 yam paus and splash strawcolate milk all over the place, then maybe I'll force a smile out. (Quote Bing "Plaster a smile") :D

Sorry people if I was very irritable today. Probably got up the wrong side of my bed. Although my bed only allows me to get off on ONE side.

Anata ha okottara sarani ikinasai. Watashitachi ha koufuku wo owanai!! :X

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO MY DEAR PARENTS yesterday
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO DADDY today

Mummy was so funny today. We had tuna sandwich for lunch and extra tuna. I asked her what to do with the rest of the tuna, she said "Set them free" O.o

Study sessions with the soccer girls on Thursday and the funfunfun part of the day-small sided game. On that particular day, a lot of people got hit by the ball. Ooooh.

I bought new sport shoes, happy me. My old one, the soles are coming out, I glued it back but bet it won't last long. Plus considering the amount we will RUN(!) when training starts again. XD

Sleepover at Yilin's on Sunday night with Ning, a girls night out with no parental guidance. Coolbeans night, never had such relaxing time in ages. Chilled out in front of the teevee with ONE TREE HILL and lots of fried junkies and chocolates late at night. Chatted till 4am before hitting the pillows. Monday noon was a good meal of wanton mee+cheesecake+apple+fried junkies once more and old faithful ONE TREE HILL. (: It got me addicted but ohNO I know I mustn't. All because of 3 letters : M-Y-E ))): BOOOOoooo!!

Monday night NJC Harmoc Concert. Went with Gabriel and Huiying to support Ness's First Ever Concert! Wheee. Met EeeePeeeWeeeeee my Grandmama and her Mama along the way, then saw JiaHui who was going too, and met Sherlyn fellow mentee! How fun, seeing all the familiar faces around, hee. We were late, missed the 1st 2 songs. Surprisingly, it turned out way better than I expected a harmoc concert to be. The recital studio was pretty small and crammy, but the music was interesting and good. Just that rawrrawr Gab keep teasing me for not knowing all the "popular" Chinese songs. Geee I better start listening or just knowing a few Chinese songs, if not people will really be convinced that I'm so not Chinese.

Bob and I-our famous upperteeth smile, lowerteeth smile, all teeth smile

oooh the great delightful sins we've eaten all in one day! I'm glad I didn't attempt to weigh myself last night, or I'll probably scream and faint.

Woke up at such an unearthly hour today to do CIP at ECP. We had to help out with the Saucony Passion Run, doing the sai-kang! ): Open thousands of 100Plus can drinks until we became damn pro, until our fingers bled, until our nails broke, until our clothes and shoes were soaked. But as Chuen said, do this for the better good. Hah! Still, it was the company that matters as usual. Spent time with the Soccer girls and Silly ol' TANO(!!) doing stupid stuffs, like our can opening compeitition. I'm so freaking tired now, lack of sleep from the past few days. Still gotta START chionging for MYEs already. I'm so dead. UGH.

Girls night sleepover at Yilin's later, without PARENTAL GUIDANCE oh great! Her parents and siblings are all overseas in different countries, and we are accompanying her! Heehee XD

Hey dear all! I am back from OBS!! (: 2 words-GREAT EXPERIENCE. I'll never give it up for anything! Was feeling quite weird at first 'cause all I know was Amelia and Dick. Budddenn, everyone was so friendly, we all became friends. Our school people were splitted into 2 groups-Gandhi and Rajaratnam. This is my beautiful group, GANDHI (with the Indian accent and the head-sliding)
Day 1 at Camp 1 was rather slow going. I realised that OBS is so not like what i expected in the sense of disciplinary stuffs, unlike the ODAC camps I went for. Which was damn good 'cause I don't fancy UG stuffs. Got to know my group mates better, found out that our instructor Sze Juey (CJ) is a damn lame guy who needs English correcting from us. Yet he is very knowledgeable. Why DOES stars twinkle? XD He is super sweet too! I bet he's the only instructor who reads us a bedtime story like Hippos Can Swim! Our OBS was mobile, brought our tents everywhere to pitch, all over the island.

Day 2 was PT in the morning followed by a short kayak trip to Camp 2. Did high elements there, the ladder logs one. It has a name called Balls breaker! Ho ho! Watch out guys! Partnered Mark, the cool accented guy who last came from China but has an Ang Moh accent, haha! We were super high towards the last part, didn't let 2 people come down until they cheered. We 'flag-lowered' 2 people while singing the school anthem. Had outdoor cooking competition with Raja and till now, the result is still unknown.

Day 3, kayaked about close to 10km by ourselves to a campsite, out of OBS centres. There was no lights, no toilets..Did rafting in silence, sold almost all our can food and precious Nature Valleys for extra time to finish our raft. Tested our shaky raft out in the Quarry and OH YEAH it worked really well! The Quarry was plain awesome to the max! Super clear and clean water, beautiful scenery, big open space. We were so high and happy there, at the count of 3, we all jumped off the raft, abadoning our instructors. Both groups formed a circle and sang the school song, cheered VJ cheers, played like crazy. It was ultra fun, I think that was the thing I enjoyed most! (: Cooked by the sea again, washed up. David and I had to use a pathetic torch to scrub the pots in the seawater, it was so hard to see man! Raja set up public toilets for us to change in the open, heehee. Sonia and I woke up in the middle of the night to star gaze, count aeroplanes, hear M'sia karaoke, swat mosquitoes!

Day 4 was trekking, lots and lots of trekking with the extremely heavy bagpacks. Trekked to Ubin Village first, saw some of the metal plates used for ODAC's clues during OLC, brought back certain memories. I never knew campsite 3 was linked to Ubin Village. Most of the girls saw a super ultra hott eye candy, and we all kept it to ourselves until someone said it out, and we all realised we were eyeing the common guy! HAHAHA! So eevilll. But that Ang Moh was seriously damn hot, like those you'd see in Bay Watch or something, some lifeguard comes to save the day. heehee, like so totally 'Oooh-lala' man! Trekked on to the highest point in Ubin next, the view there was SPECTACULAR!! We could see the quarry, almost the whole of Ubin, Singapore..It was sooo pretty. Went on to 'Shopping centre' next, visited the $5 Ah ma and helped her do manual labour, plucked weeds. Headed back to Camp 1, while doing evacuation drill. Carrying the stretcher and our own bagpack sucks, hands burned, shoulders and backs ached, but we all did it together and I'm so proud of all of them!

Day 5 was just packing up and trying our hardest to finish all our new rations! We could be the first group to finish our rations, just that its not fair 'cause those we sold were given back to us LAST MINUTE. Otherwise we would have eaten it that day. Anyway, I think our group is super greedy, eating all day long. I love Gandhi and all the fun tiring high late noisy itchy moments we all had together! I officially HATE sandflies TO THE CORE!!! They make me itch like mad! ): My arms and legs looked diseased. )':

Apart from OBS, had Soccer DSA trials today. Was surprised to see so many IJ girls come, though I only told 3. Thank you Jo, Cheryl, Denise, Constance and Yen Ling for coming down today to just learn something and have fun and at least TRY. We had lots of fun with you girls! Hope you did too! It was really something watching Genevieve-Gavin's sister play. She is so young yet so pro! Like whoa whoa whoa to her! (:

Goodbye everyone! Will be gone for OBS camp for a week! (: Yay :) Miss me till then
