"Class" outing
Yes, it's me again. Bear with me, coz I'm currently having my one week break, haha. Today, or rather, yesterday..we had a so-called class outing. It was really meant to be a class outing, but the maximum number who turned up was 6. In the afternoon, only 5 girls and 1 guy turned up to catch a movie, The Island - the movie was not bad. And guess who did I see there? I saw MuTong! I was talking on the phone when I saw this girl dressed up in a trendy manner which caught my attention. Then I looked at her, she looked at me.. and I finally recognised her and waved. Haha, cool. :)After the movies, the only guy left and then we ate some deserts at Pastamania and took some neoprints. Then, we went to play billiard for a very short while. After which we switched to singing again but the stupid thing was that the microphone was low on batt and that the guys didn't come to join us, haha. It became like a ladies nite instead. Seems like our class needs more class outings..

cca chalet!
Hehe, here I am to update again. This time it's my cca chalet, stayed overnight on Monday and left on the early morning of Tuesday. On Monday, my friend and I took the train towards Bedok together and met up with some of our cca peeps, exchanged numbers with my primary school friend as well. :)
After travelling for some distance, just when we were about to reach the chalet, it started to rain. The raindrops seemed so artificial, it was ultra huge and the rain came so unexpectedly. Being drenched, we stood around doing nothing for some time due to the rain, and also because we don't know the people just yet. But after a while, we joined the group to play some card games. Well, the thought of playing card games doesn't seem so interesting, but it's really the process of getting to know each other. We had this memory game where it really helped a lot in introducing ourselves to everyone.
Soon after the rain stopped, some of us went to cycle. It was actually still drizzling when we left the chalet; fortunately, it stopped after a while. *Cycle, cycle, cycle - tired* And we also chatted with one another while cycling, got to know some nice people. :) Also went to the jetty to take some photos with my classmate. One thing which bothered me was all the aches that I got from the cycling, really got to exercise more..While cycling back to return the bicycle, it started to rain again. Terrible weather for outdoor activites -_-" Talked to our senior while walking back to the chalet (and the rain stopped). In fact, there are two seniors who are in the same course as us. Cool :)Next activity - eating! Haha, it was a barbeque. My friend and I were pretty slackish, didn't do any cooking when almost all the people were standing by the bbq pit helping out. The smoke was real bad, teared although I was indoors. We seemed to be waiting for others to serve us food, hehex..but they still did. Aww man, they are so nice! :)At that moment, we still don't know some of the people there. We were still pretty anti-social, listening to songs and a little away from the main group. But after that, a group of people who were sitting behind us, called us over and we started to chat a little. We then joined them to the beach, bringing along some waterbombs to hit those who were there.
When we got back, it was back to listening to mp3 again, LOL. Soon after, a guy(the one who called us over) sat near us; no choice I guess, probably too packed in the house. He was doing his FOM project, and everyone was like, "so hardworking!". Well, he's the project leader but he doesn't seem nerdy at all. (Haha..no, I don't mean project leaders = nerds, just trying to give you a better idea of what the situation was) Yep, he talked to us for a while, also told us he is able to multi-task, so I guess it was rather pissing coz we weren't that responsive and he's the chatty and hyperactive type, so there was an awkward stretch of silence and he was sighing away, haha!
Luckily, we went to play some card games again. And through this card game session, we got to know some other people, an enthusiastic group of Year 1s. Nice knowing them. Then we went out to get some stuff from the shops. We passed by one, stopped and bought some chips while the others left for 7-11. Haha, the anti-socialness is acting up again. Both of us walked back to the chalet and wanted to go to the playground, but it was already occupied by some other people. We ended up sitting at the area outside the chalet again. And as usual, listened to songs. Haha, if you wanna ask if we were bored then, a little.. just a little, as it's another bonding with my classmate and people came over to talk to us at times. =p
After that, we went to the beach again. This time, it was with some of the humurous guys. We stayed for a much longer period, like hours. We sat at the beach, chatted, listened to jokes, mp3 and also enjoyed a "concert" by the very same guy who sat near us previously. He was from choir, not bad having a free concert at the beach, haha. A very funny and daring guy I must say. He's ultra caring too - which made him unable to see the s h o o t i n g s t a r. Hehe, I SAW IT!! It was super coincidental as he was talking about shooting stars before he went to check whether another group of people were fine (we had to climb the gates as they were locked at 12mn). Sounds really unbelievable, doesn't it? Appeared right after we mentioned it, hehe, I'm so lucky. BUT, my reaction was too slow to react to it, didn't manage to make a wish like what they always do in shows.
Hmm.. did other stuff at the beach, like looking at the couple(their classmates) who were sitting not too far from us, trying to observe for another shooting star, doing some lame stuff - er..dance, etc. Intended to wait for the sunrise, but the plan was spoilt by the weather again. It was 5 plus when we started to walk towards the place to see the sunrise and it started to rain again, so we had no choice but to climb over the gates and head back to the chalets again.Some of the people who didn't go to the beach were still awake, chatting..but it wasn't too long before they went up to catch some sleep. Left with me and my friend in one side, and some others in the other. Super tired, especially when all you see is a television with all the old and uninteresting tv shows and not much to interact with coz she's feeling tired too. After a few hours(maybe it was just 1 or 2, but it felt like forever) of plain sitting and listening to music, some people came to our side of the chalet. Haha, should have chatted with them earlier, instead of all those plain sitting which makes you even more tired. But thinking of it now, I might not be talking a lot, but at least it's better to listen to them chat than nothing. x)
Soon, the sky turned brighter and it was already 8 plus. We chatted for a short while but it was pretty weird, as my head just seemed to turn towards the outside as if there was something interesting on the outside when there really wasn't. He joked to ask whether I was trying to count the number of birds that flew past. Sigh, real bad habit of mine, always trying to turn my head away and look elsewhere to avoid eye contact with others. Grrr..Anyway, after that, my friend and I decided to leave the place. And we also waited for some of the awake ones to get prepared and then walk to Macs for breakfast, while we walk in the same direction to the exit. Really great people I've met, never regret going for the chalet. Thanks to all who contributed to the fun, every single part of it, for the great memories and experiences!

My Class BBQ (:
Yoz! Haven't been blogging for a long time. Guess it's time to update a little, hehex. Just had this class bbq on last saturday. Well it was pretty cool, since it's the first time we had a class bonding kind of thing. Moreover, it was held at my house. And expectedly, I was pretty much of a bad host and blur in everything, but my classmates seemed rather kind and tolerating. We started off with the buying of stuff for the bbq which took like more than 4 hours to do so as there was this loooong waiting time. First, it was waiting for people to arrive at the destination. Then some wandered off and most importantly, some went to play arcade <- That's the place where you just get stuck for a long time. After all that, we went to get the bbq stuff.. (fast forward) .. and it was my fault for the bus waiting time. I was really blur and made everyone wait at the bus stop for an ultra long time. Really sorry to my dear classmates.. :After reaching my house, we put down all the stuff and went out to eat lunch. Lunch was alright, what's more exciting was the after-lunch activities, haha. Oh well, it ain't that exciting just that they went to play pool and some of us went to play bowling after watching their game for a while. Just realised that they can play pool pretty well, seemed quite pro, hahax. By that time, my class PTN ("form teacher") and one of my classmates have already arrived at my place and we were still playing.. -_-" *rush rush* When we reached the place, our teacher was already about to leave coz she had to go for a dinner but she's nice, didn't scold us. Well, she will be leaving for Australia for a course or something, so today was her last lesson with us before she passes the "form teacher" title to another lecturer. Back to the bbq..Some of the problems we encountered:- it was raining / drizzling (on a bbq day)
- the wire mesh wasn't long enough due to my blurness again ):
"Luckily" it was drizzling and not raining heavily and there was some old wire mesh in the cupboard. The guys in my class were really helpful, got to thank them for carrying all the stuff, starting the fires, solving problems, cooking the food, etc. (Hey, don't give me that look, i made some jelly thing with a few of my other girl friends, haha. )
*Munching time - eat, eat, eat..* Then some of them played Uno and heart-attack while 3 went out to get more charcoal and drinks. Ooh, and when the peeps came back, we went into the lounge for some singing session, while some others stayed to eat. The karaoke system is full of oldies and I didn't have many karaoke VCDs, so the songs that you can choose from are very limited. But nevermind, maybe next time if we have an mtv bbq, everyone can just bring their own karaoke VCDs along =]
Really funny coz we took a video of the guys singing, and they all became so shy instantly, using cushions to cover.. BUT I deleted it by accident!! So wasted right? x And now that I'm thinking back, I should have taken more photos of everyone and everything that day. Took so few photos and not even one photo with all the people inside. Hmm.. double wasted, haha.Meanwhile, some others actually helped to clear up all those trash and packed everything, helped to carry stuff up as well. Super duper nice!! And said that "it's the least we can do", what more can you ask for right?As it got later, more people left. Finally left with me and one of my closest classmate, then i sent her out. Gotta thank her for staying with me and helping too (:Overall, it was FUN! :))))Let's have a fun mtv bbq soon! =P
