Hello! :) I've been somehow extremely packed with activities recently. It's kinda cool having something to do always, but also gets tiring easily. BUT! Oh I just love my life now :D
I went back to school this morning to take my Bio Paper. HAHA. Actually, I went back to meet my classmates to pass them their Prom Night tickets and goody bags. Oh and the goody bags are pretty good! There's two cans of free Nescafe Latte! :D Oh my love. And also, New Urban Male vouchers. There's also a Chapter2 voucher, although I've not looked at it in great detail. Either way, it seems pretty great so far. My holiday, that is. :D
After that, I went to Jurong West Sports Complex with Wei Xin to play badminton with her cousin and her brother. Well, there were actually more people who ought to have come. But... as expected, they didn't turn up. Oh I know them so well already. HAHA.
It was actually pretty cool playing badminton! :D Especially when I just played Squash the previous day. I mean, the two games are fairly different, and I think I was playing half-Squash half-Badminton today. Hahaha. I actually liked Badminton today! :) There was just a teeny problem that I have chosen to close my both eyes to. Why make my life so troubling! :D I've learnt to walk the safest path.
Then we went to Jurong Point to meet the Muggers. Okay maybe we really shouldn't be named as that anymore, given that A's are over. We did some planning for our Taiwan trip, and I must say, today's progress was exceptionally fast. But to be honest, I don't really have any comments on the itinerary anyway. I don't have specific places to go, so I pretty much left the planning to them. I'll just be your trustworthy .. .. traveller! Hahaha.
Oh Gwen if you're seeing this, congrats on your new hairstyle! :D I think it was pretty cool how you really changed so much! :D
Anyways, Jowell and myself then went to IMM to do some shopping. There was an Innovation Club BBQ that evening. (For those who are in the unknown, Innovation Club was my CCA in my Secondary School. It's a pretty cool CCA!) I had initially budgeted only two hundred dollars for food. When we did our payment at the cashier, it came up to a total of nearly three hundred and fifty dollars! That exceeded the budget by almost 60%! Hahaha!
Oh just a sign of caution for those who are doing BBQing, DO NOT BUY CHARCOAL AND FIRESTARTERS FROM GIANT. Thank you very much! :D
Because, they simply suck. Although they burn easily, but they also die out easily. The charcoal pieces are all crushed into tiny pieces, to the extent it was terrible trying to sustain a fire. It just kept burning off too quickly. And the firestarters, are they even burnable? Okay maybe yes, I'm exaggerating a little. But seriously I was quite annoyed by them. It was torturous to get them to light, what more set up a fire -_-. For the sake of having to eat, we ended up toasting some of the food in ovens. How sad simply.
Then we got some juniors to go buy a different brand of charcoal and firestarters. Wow, you could just see how different it was. The pieces were gigantic compared to the previous ones. And the firestarters were almost heavenly - they lighted up so easily. The best part is, we bought it from the sundry shop opposite Hua Yi. I'm utterly disgusted with Giant's BBQ products. Ugh.
Then after awhile, we went up to the IT Resource Room 1, where our juniors had prepared a video for one of the teachers who was leaving the school come December. I'm not going to comment too much on this. Anyways, I shall take this opportunity to wish her all the best in her new school! Even though she probably will never see this. Hahaha.
I wonder what might happen to Innovation Club in time to come, given the huge transitions thus far. Experienced teachers, leaving. Experienced students, leaving. Who's left to handle the club? Sigh. I just hope they understand their own conditions and situations, and twist appropriately to make the best out of it. After all, that is their club. It's gonna be a long blog entry if I carry on talking about the club; so I shall stop here ----.
TAIWAN TRIP! :D We're flying off this Saturday. Woo.
