I've no idea

Photobucket Dear friends, this is quite rare, I suppose. I have no ideas on what I should blog about these few days. Darn it! I don't mean to let you guys wondering if I was still existing in the world...... I really want to have some updates, but kind of hard.

I don't really like to talk about how I'm recently, 'cause sometimes, I feel that you guys don't know what I'm trying to say. Again, very weird! Is that what people say? After leaving for some time, people will forget their friends, including those best ones, will I?
I wonder...
I doubt.
I think.

Ah, yea, boredom filled up the days...
That's is. what a short post!

PS: inspire ME!

Updates

Happy Birthday Wan Ting. Photobucket

Photobucket
Ice-cream cake, ReversO. Nice!

We celebrated her birthday on Wednesday. 'cause we're not free on Thursday, and everyone is back on Fri. Yea, I reckon she felt happy, this birthday should be different from what she used to have in Malaysia. Photobucket

Photobucket
Five of us had just finished our dinner, yet we need to finish another ice-cream cake. Urgh-huh, gaining weight, sob. We forced Wan Ting to finished the remaining herself as she's the birthday girl.
Music plays * Happy birthday to you, happy birth... ... ... *

Next up: 7th MAS
Whoa, I think the right word for MAS is EPIC! awesome MAS. (MAS stands for Model ASEAN Summit.) Some of you might already know I've not gone to school for a week as I was participating this Model ASEAN Summit.

I thought it should be serious and solemn. However, everything is opposite to what I thought. To be precise, this is a fun Summit, everyone is very playful. Yesh, especially our director/chair/delegate of China. You decide, I don't know, either.

Photobucket

Saw it? The delegate of People's Republic of China. He's funny! Sometimes, he'll come out of nowhere and contribute to our discussion. What the press wrote was "The Chinese delegate is widely believed to be SEPCCOM director, Wei Yichen, but when interviewed, Yichen repeatedly insisted that the SEPCCOM director and the Chinese delegate are two different people."
How ridiculous. Photobucket

And of course, we had the delegate of Antartica. (Frankly, I suppose there's no such country in United Nations. Photobucket )

Photobucket
Hungry Penguin. Pathetic. Photobucket Please la, I'm a penguin, and I'm sure that penguin doesn't look like this, should be prettier.

Almost everybody said SEPCCOM is the slackest committee, but we just make the whole discussion to be enjoyable. We also came up with this "SPECCOM; cause we're special like that!" What's more, Thailand insisted to declare war on Myanmar, Thailand used ELEPHANTS and Myanmar used RICE. I've no idea on how they could come up with this "creative" idea. Yea, and imaginative.

Photobucket
Love SPECCOM. (The most scandalous committee)

I miss SPECCOM.

Half day at Marina Garage and LTA

Today was fun. Our school has organized a one-day-learning-journey trip to Marina Garage and Land Transport Authority.

Just after common test, we don't need to face the results. We had this chance to visit Marina Garage and LTA. Quite nice.

Early in the morning, after morning assembly, we set off to Marina Garage which is obviously at the Marina Bay. This garage was Lee Kuan Yew's vision. As we know, Singapore's river was very dirty, full of rubbish. Through the ten-year-clean-up, Singapore has now become cleaner. We visited the 'Sustainable Singapore Gallery' to know more about this garage.

Okay, to be honest, I personally think that this gallery is built to attract tourists and to promote Singapore as a very high-tech and clean country.

NEWater. Singapore has two water agreements with Malaysia!!!!!(will end at 2011 and 2061)

We then went to Land Transport Authority. They showed us how Singapore improved their Land Transport System. my opinion

Photobucket
Old Bus Guides.

School dismissed us quite early today, at about 12.30pm. Photobucket

So, we had our lunch at Domani. I miss spelt it as Domino, and my friend laughed at me. Photobucket
I had spaghetti and pizza, shared with my friends.

Photobucket

I'm going back soon. Photobucket
countdown: 7 days

My Tablet PC

It's awesome, it's lousy, I confess. Tablet PC is really a great creation of the 21st century and it's equipped with multitouch screen.

By the way, there're reasons which make me said that TPC is awesome, yet lousy. You can ignore this.(My one-sided-monologue)

Good point: T-O-U-C-H-I-E TPC is really cool. Photobucket
Bad point: It cost me my dad a lot. Photobucket

Well, this TPC is by Fujitsu. I don't really like Fujitsu, because, well, you know Fujitsu isn't that good in producing TPCs this kind of stuff la. But since our school required us to buy a Fujitsu one, I just follow.

This TPC is quite small (usually TPCs are small). And the most astonishing thing is that, I'm using Windows 7. Okay keep cool, I know it's not that surprising. May be some of you might think that, "Windows 7 ah? I use that too." Ahem, sorry for my "self-overjoyness". Yea, Windows 7 is undeniably better than Windows Vista.

Common test are here, next week. So, I'll be off for about one week. Mum, I'll miss you like mad. Do call me often. Also, my fellow friends, I'll miss you guys too!

Malaysia, I'm coming back!

As Chinese New Year holiday is coming, I'm glad that I've the chance to go home! Photobucket I can't wait any longer!

As I told my roommates, my mind has flown back to Malaysia already and my brain, as well. My body will take the plane to Malaysia tomorrow.

Ha, I miss my home very much. You can feel. You can see. Photobucket

I've not been stepping on Malaysia for weeks. I've not been smelling Malaysia for weeks. I've not been enjoying the Malaysian food, such as Nasi Lemak, Roti Canai, for weeks. I've not heard Manglish for weeks. I've not been feeling the slow pace in Malaysia for weeks. I've not been speaking or reading Malay for weeks. I've not seen my parents and fellow friends for weeks. I've not been sleeping on my comfortable bed for weeks. I've not been playing or touching my computer for weeks. I've not been.....

Oh, I miss everything.

After OBS

I've promised myself to blog after OBS, so I do it now. Obviously, right? Nonsense. Photobucket First and foremost, I personally think that OBS is fun, except the fourth day which made me almost died, but thank God, I didn't. We have the opportunity to do something dangerous but fun, something scary but worth trying, something that we can't do beyond OBS. It also taught us that we need to take initiative to do our best so as to achieve our goals. I really felt that I learnt a lot.

From the very first day, we set off from school happily. Photobucket We reached the jetty and took a boat to Pulau Ubin. The first day is when we did our introduction and stuff arrangment. We need to pitch the tents ourselves too! Pitching tents isn't as easy as what I thought before. It's really tiring but when you finished, you will be filled with great success as if you accomplish something very hard to achieve. We cooked ourselves. Canned food and tidbits for every meals. UNHEALTHY! I know but I just chose to survive but not starving. We don't know how to cook the rice so our rice pot became chao tar (burnt). Dejected. We need to clean it lor. Got frustrated with that.

We went hiking on the second day. This is the day when we started to do our main activities. Although hiking is tiring, we were able to reach our destination on time. The word that I use to describe for the whole journey is "TIRED". When I say this in a matter-of-fact way, I mean it, really. When we reached the second campsite, I felt relief. Albeit being frustrated by tiredness, I told myself I made it! Guess what, we actually need to carry those I-supposed-they-are-10-kg backpacks. Photobucket They're HEAVY!!!!!!! Felt IRRITATED! My shoulders are groaning for pain, my muscles are complaining they're cramp! I felt sorry for torturing them!

The third day, we went kayaking which I wanted to try for a long time but haven't got round to. I did it! It's not that fun, it hurt my shoulders! What the heck. I pity them. The sea was rather choppy that day but nobody capsized. We kayaked for about 2 and a half hour and we finally, emphasize on it, reached the third campsite. Wow, I cheered for myself. I "honoured" myself a powder bath. To be more precise, I DIDN'T SHOWER. emo........... I was smelly! I only washed my hair as they were covered with salty sea water. They suck!!!

Before we set off, we practised the capsize drill in both shallow and deep sea. It's really hard to get into the boat after capizing in deep sea. You need a lot of strength to push yourself up to the boat. Really!! There's nothing to support you beneath your legs. NOTHING!! You need to be firm, you need to be strong, you need to be confident if you want to get up to the boat. It's difficult! I got into my boat after several tries. But then, my dank shirt clung to my body, I felt irritated! While pushing myself up to the boat, I felt as if there's a fish swam through my stomach, itchy.

On the fourth day, we went jungle trekking. I went through the lush green jungle and walked for about 9 hours. The whole journey is 15 km. Photobucket shocked! faint! I walked until I nearly blacked out. I'm serious! The word "weary" describes everything. I felt disgruntled! Everyone was in the same plight, though. I hate jungle trekking. My legs were throbbing. They ARE, till now!

It came to the last day which we longed for many days, four days actually. Wow, the first sentence I said when I woke up in the dawn is, "Whoah, we're going home today!!!" Ha! Photobucket We unpitched our tents and tidied the messy dorm. We were ready to go home! After the last reflection, we ended our five-day-camp. We got our Certificate of Completion and signed autograph. We know each other better now.

My friend, she had a very unforgettable OBS lor, 'cause bruises, sand-fly-bites and blue blacks are all over her hands and legs. Pathetic. =(

After OBS, I feel that my hostel has the best food in Singapore, has the best dorm in Singapore, has the best facilities in Singapore. Throughout OBS, we learnt not to whine, 'cause we're actually very lucky as compare to those unfortunates and those who suffer. Why don't we accept what God has given us?

The greatest need of every human being is the need for appreciation.
