o man i'm so tired.
came back from mcyc camp earlier today.
mcyc camp.
well started in school, broke into groups, painted group flags.
i think my group flag rocks! and we called ourselves
L ots
O f
L ove
LOL!
had lunch. to the campsite! like some ulu punggol area at the edge of singapore.
then you see the sea and then malaysia at the other side. wow.
thankfully it didn't rain during station games 1, so we could play irish cricket and dodgeball.
but i didn't play!
part of the GandA committee. games and activities.
basically we do everything except meals and worship.
fantastic right? gosh. haha but we're a cool and effective bunch of people! (:
dinner. worship and message. discussion. and they screened a movie.
spirited away. but well apparently only the bb people watched it.
and then i stayed up with some of the primers until 2 something
haha playing poker! texas hold em
and ryan wong suggested push ups as chips.
man i ended the night owing 78. others had 100+
haha then pay back half before going to sleep. pain pain!
next morning there was a bit of rain. so station games 2 was pushed back a bit,
and kind of made optional. played texas hold em again.
but after paying back around 70 push ups. the 8 was cleared for free!
new game. great. in total for that game i owe, i think 215 or 225 push ups.
i owe 140 now.
man my chest hurts when i move my arms around, especially when opening it up.
war games haha. everyone just throwing water bombs at each other. not surprising.
bbq dinner. ok no comments on this and the evening's other activities.
stayed up till 6.
they screened zoolander. o gosh it's such a stupid show! haha
MAGNUM!
it ended at around 12someting or 1 something. or maybe 2 something.
played bridge after that, before changing to texas hold em when more people came. haha
no more push ups. now using cups of water. haha
i don't owe any. like 2 cups i think. and i've paid that back easily (:
somehow we stopped and played taboo instead. haha
before some decided to sleep.
then i went to do qt, came back and they all were sleeping except amanda
so we practised for leading worship tomorrow. 2 songs. haha
then went to play random songs before talking randomly.
or rather i talked while she tried to stay awake. haha
we eventually slept like 6 something. woke up at 8.30
tired..........
some clearing up, packing. a last morning devotion which started without the worship
so we didn't have to lead in the end. haha
then go back. so tired....
i like this camp better than last year. haha
some people who were there last year are back again! haha
plus i know the people in my group, actually talk to them and stuff.
it's so much more fun. haha basically i think mcyc and bb are getting closer.
good good. haha and i'm glad to be a part of that.
now back to doing work. stupid slacker sam chan.

went to clementi to visit my grandfather.
like a normal saturday where i do not have bb or something on.
ran home.
another approximately 1 hour run.
a few seconds to cross the railway at AYE,
more than a few seconds for the red man to become clean and green
and that happened twice.
hopefully i got a tan. slight one i think.
i hope my thighs get tan. they're a sickly white.
i'm starting to like these 1 hour runs.
but i'm unfortunately, still as fat as ever

o i went for my flu jab before that...
then went to jurong point from school to buy long john silvers lunch for my sis, and myself too
since she said she'll pay for my meal if i go buy.. haha
but it was raining. so troublesome. took a bus from jurong point to nearest bus stop
called my sis to bring umbrellas so that can walk home. haha
yesterday was a stay at home day!
mostly. i didnt have to go out. yay!
i spent the day like reading new moon.
i finally finished it. gosh!
yeah i agree with benavon, new moon isnt as good as twilight.
o well...
then i decided to run. first time in at least a month.
gosh i died. i could barely run 2.4km.
o wait i said this yesterday.
so crap. i hate it. im super unfit now. wth
and i went home to type worksheets for my mom. haha
before going to billy bombers for dinner with my father and elder sis
my younger sis didnt want to go
claiming she was full from lunch.
she went seoul garden with her friends i think.
o well...
brainiac was cool. haha
i had to go out today!
to go for math tuition. seriously i died.
partial fractions. like what?
i was super slow!
i felt really really stupid.
everyone could get it really fast, and i was still at the stage where one goes
"HUH?!"
sigh...
went home to slack...
eat lunch rather.
as usual, i got my elder sister to cook instant noodles on the condition she cooks, i wash the dishes. haha im not a very good cook i think.
never really tried. don't foresee myself trying in the near future
haha and then while eating, i decided to watch
10 things i hate about you.
like omgomg that is such a nice show!
super sweet. haha o gosh
i could literally fall in love with kat and her boyfriend.
i cannot remember his name. haha
kat is acted by julia stiles. and her boyfriend heath ledger.
ooo so cool. haha i shall go watch again one day.
i like the songs too.
and well, i was like i want to get the soundtrack!
and then my sis, who had her laptop, went online
and downloaded the songs. i think
haha now i can listen to them! yay!
i slept after that. haha
then my parents came home and my mom started nagging
as usual. like how lazy we were and what not
then they went out for a meeting if im not wrong.
so i went to prepare dinner.
like pizza.
took the dough, spread the tomato sauce thing...
put the shredded ham on..
decided not to put mushrooms because my elder sis and i didnt really fancy them
then the mozarella cheese. wait i think i spelled wrongly
o well. haha we just put a substantial amount i guess...
haha
cheese and ham. not exactly very fun. o well...
put into the oven to bake
and then i went running for a short while. like at most 20minutes.

ok i will not blog about council camp as in what happened and all.
except for the personal record bit. haha
council camp is a 2 day 1 night camp.
mark, peiyi, daniel and i decided not to sleep at all. haha
for various reasons, some just didnt feel like sleeping, others just joining the rest haha
at least i was just joining them
i had to give a workshop in the morning and to give a workshop without any sleep is not really a very good thing, is it?
so we just lie down in the astro turf, looking at the clouds and stars and talked about wherever the conversation headed off to...
after a while, the astro dirt got into our shirts and shorts, making it uncomfortable
so we ended up sitting up in the end and talking.
we decided to do something else, like play cards after a while
time check: approximately 4am
we played bridge, and decided to return to the boardroom after that to slack
time check: 5am
mark, peiyi and i listened to our ipod, shuffle and nano respectively while daniel just stoned. basically we just sat there and didnt do anything. trying not to wake up the rest of the people who were sleeping. we decided to go shower at 530am.
came back to the boardroom at 6. put down our stuff and went to the SAC, which was opened and had lights and air con on. haha we just sat there and not sweat so as not to get sticky again.
i mean like all 4 of us agreed that after that shower, we felt super good and didnt want to get dirty. haha
the rest of the day went on as planned, a workshop by me, breakfast from just for mee, amazing race...
well at east coast park, mark and i had to stone for so long because the racers were slow. haha ok maybe not. dont know. and well, stoning means easy to fall asleep.
so throughout the day, especially then, i have this few seconds where i conk out. like suddenly i find myself waking up...
and i go, huh? o i slept? o ok. few seconds i think. yeah.
that happened a few times. but i slept while on the bus to suntec from east coat park...
so sad! like i dont know, maybe 10 minutes? 15 minutes. so sad!!!
basically, the last time i slept before that was yesterday morning. i think. i dont know
haha so little sleep. first time. so fun. yay!
now im tired. time to go watch tv

whee!!
yesterday went all the way to kembangan mrt at 915 to meet up with some people to cycle. haha which is like,
lakeside - chinese garden - jurong east interchange - clementi - dover - buona vista - commonwealth - queenstown - redhill - tiong bahru - outram park interchange - tanjong pagar - raffles place intercahnge - city hall interchange - bugis - lavendar- kallang - aljunied - paya lebar - eunos - kembangan.
by the way, i didnt check anything to type that. its all from memory. so i could be wrong.
did i mentioned that i have memorized the whole East West Line? including the expo-changi airport bit.
not to mention the whole North South Line and the North East Line. however since i dont really use those lines, i cannot be 100% sure that i'll be correct all the time. about say 97%?
once the circle line is out, ooooo i have a lot of memorizing to do!
i wonder if what my friend said is true.
that was in 2004, when i memorized it then. she told me it was a waste of memory space. haha
yeah so after everyone came, we walked to east coast park.
in the hot sun. seriously it was super hot!!
but i didnt mind, haha i like the hot sun! (:
with russell leading us in the correct way, we walked and walked for er, at least 15 minutes i think until we reach east coast.
after some drama, which i will not mention haha, we went to rent bikes.
we rented from a different place compared to the last time i went cycling at east coast.
which was a few weeks ago. haha
then we cycled, and went farther than last time. haha
burned a few times, o man legs tired!
from the rental shop, we went until kallang, then back to the rental shop all the way till near changi i think. haha my quads were dying!
after that we decided to go bowling, but because there was a tournament, only lanes 16 and 17 could be used, but they were already used by others. karlo wanted to wait but i didnt, so i managed to persaude everyone to go for lunch with great difficulty. haha we couldnt decide where to go for lunch. walked past macs, realised there was nothing much to eat and subway was too expensive. haha although i really wanted to eat there. haha
went macs and karlo and russell see shared a 20 piece nuggets. HAHA first time i see someone buy that. haha
i single handedly finished 2 curry sauces and 1 barbeque sauce. with the fries that you get with a normal meal. haha maybe one day i shall try to finish 4...
decided to screw bowling and just crash russell's house, and so we walked back, in the hot afternoon sun!
i think that was then that i really got burnt. i realised towards the end of the journey that all of a sudden, my arms became red. o gosh haha
by the time we reached russell's house, i was red.
there was a dead mynah in his pond too. haha and they fished it out!
i like his dog, ernie, haha.
just slacked and rest in russell's house, talk cock before going home. haha
on the train, i realised how red i was when my arm was against my calf,
and there was a very distinct difference. haha went home and realised i had a V mark on my neck because of my shirt. o well
went shopping after dinner for jeans for a reason i dont really feel like saying right now. so i managed to buy another pair of jeans. too bad it aint levi's ):
o o i managed to convince my parents to buy me new shoes too!
now i have 3 pairs of shoes! yay!
but 2 of them are running shoes, adidas and asics. i wanted non-running shoes..
since adidas superstar is kind of expensive, 119 bucks, something my parents would never agree to buy for me, just got converse sneakers. those 50+ bucks canvas ones. well not that im not happy, haha but i dont know, i dont normally wear non-running shoes. haha
im supposed to be logging for nyaa. supposed to. apparently im blogging instead of logging. the wonders of a "b".

Didn't hear a tone, are you, hello
I never hear a tone, I guess you know
I can't remember what I called to say
I thought you might be home on Saturday
I really can't believe it's been a year
It took a little time without you here
I'm guessing you survived alone somehow
It's good that I can joke about it now
I still avoid the park at Christopher
Never wanna feel the way we were
Unless I'm in a hurry for that train
And that's the only newsstand open late
People change (people change) everyday (everyday)
Change like you (change like you)
I got all the time in the world
People cry (people cry) all the time (all the time)
Cry like me (cry like me)
We got all the time in the world
It's been so long that no one even asks
And everybody's walkin' on the grass
Grass that took a while to reappear
I'd forgotten green without you here
Christmas came and went upon this bench
Tryin' to justify what made no sense
Now the ivy's overrun the tears
But it could never hide what happened here
People change (people change) everyday (everyday)
Change like you (change like you)
I got all the time in the world
People cry (people cry) all the time (all the time)
Cry like me (cry like me)
We got all the time in the world
(Fillin' in the conversation by myself)
(Fillin' in the reason why you leave me leavin', leavin')
(Thinkin' back, the hope we had was more than mine)
The hope we had was more than mine (more than mine)
I know it makes sense to you (more than mine)
Just make it make sense to me
Maybe I'm alive beneath the snow
Maybe you're too petrified to know
I can't believe that you would tell me lies
How could I have missed that in those eyes
Maybe if I only heard your voice
I would understand you had no choice
And though I'm glad it's clear for you to see
I wish that you could make it make sense to me
People cry (people cry) all the time (all the time)
Cry like me (cry like me)
I got all the time in the world
Flowin' in and out your life (people change)
By tomorrow mornin (everyday)
Flowin' in and out my life (people change)
People change (people change) everyday
People cry (people change) all the time
People change (people change) everyday
People Change - Sung by Rockapella
not too sure if they composed it or covered it.
i miss the times we had. i no longer miss you.

i had class chalet from monday afternoon to today morning.
i realised before going to the chalet, fairy point chalet 6,
i went to recce the PA punggol campsite for the mcyc camp.
after the chalet, i travelled to school for a meeting for mcyc camp.
basically, it was home, mcyc stuff, class chalet, mcyc stuff, home.
kind of a not so edible or tasty sandwich.
ok i dont think i am in the mood to blog a lot about class chalet.
although it is quite possible that i just rant on and on and at the end find out i have another long post about what happened. well i played soccer, played a game on ps2, watched people play, played a bit of cards, sleep, become part of the barbeque pit crew (:, watch sheu zhi play fatal frame 3. haha same thing as last year. to me that was the highlight of last year's class chalet, and i think it would remain the same for this year. haha.
o o i saw the sunset. took pictures with my phone camera. i dont think they'll turn out nice but the sunset was good.
right suddenly i dont feel like blogging anymore. pity.
i miss the class chalet. haha

ok. my com is lagging.
i went to esplanade to watch rockapella's concert.
i think the money is wasted onme because my ears arent trained to fully appreciate the goodness of such a group.
however i still think that they are a really insanely good group!
saw a few people i know, haha didnt really expect to see them there.
cool.
nice rain btw.
no sarcasm, rain at night is nice. thunderstorm too.
as long as the thunder does not get too loud.
i really think rockapella is super good.

i'll be at the class chalet from 1500hrs tomorrow till wednesday morning.
ooo more time being away from home. unfortunately. home is simply so nice, so homely. haha
i need to put down all my appointments in my phone to help me keep track of what i need to do and where i need to go and at what time.
so that i do not miss another event, like recceing for the yf retreat. i felt really bad after that.
its at this point of time that i wish i had those super phones, like those with qwerty keypads.
i think i need to go.
