Busy busy. And I'm no longer busy with WOW. Guess it is something I should be relieved. UC released me from that chain, that thick and heavy chains of WOW.
So busy this whole week with outings, next week will be my matriculation & OG's chalet and followed immediately by O week. Super packed~
Monday had OG outing to watch harry. Of course we arranged to meet earlier for pre movie gathering. Met with Zhirong, Zhengyi, Eve, Seb, Dina, Lixin, Chung Phong & Geraldine for lunch at MS's Kolo Mee, and had pool/arcade games after that. As usual, a big cock up, original venue for screening of MS was changed to PS. Zzz. So the group of us who were supposed to be the earliest, turned up at PS the latest.
At least the movie was only $2, Harry Potter, but I don't think it can be compared to Harry's previous 4 movies. Someone mentioned a change of director, so that could be it. What is an outing with having meals together, so off we went to Manhattan for dinner, and again, the food is not really comparable to Fish & Co. What is dinner then, without dessert. Headed to The Cathay's Ben & Jerry's for ice cream. But we took so many seats, and bought only an item. Opps. Sat there, talked cock, had sharing sessions, a fruitful event I must say. Surviving few for that day were Francis, Chung Phong, Zhirong, Seb, Xin Yu, Yeow Ann, Hui Xia, Guang Hong & Bo Yan. But, what is dessert without supper! Final part to the outing had the group of us 5 guys eating beancurd at a nearby stall before rushing off quickly to Bugis to catch the last eastbound train.
Tuesday, having kind of slept alot after that late night out the previous day, had another gathering today. Back to Bugis, this time with OCIP peeps, Yumei, Aik Meng, Siew Hoon & Aaron who left early. Went to Liang Seah Street for porridge steamboat. Coming end of this year, it would have been 4 years that we have known each other. Still reminiscence about the good old times together, the fun & the laughter we shared. We really should be thankful for this OCIP that brought us, a group of 26 strangers to being the friends we are today. Though of course, the core of what's left is probably a handful of us, it's the thought that counts.
Wednesday, OG outing 3 to East Coast Park. Attendance was filled by Zhirong, Zhengyi, Chung Phong, JiaEn, Garfield, Seb & Lixin. Tried our hands at roller blading. I must admit I'm quite good for a totally noob at it. Fell a few times but at least no visible injuries of sort. Perspired as if I ran a good 2.4km throughout that 2 hours of blading. Guang Hong joined us as we were blading back to return our skates. And so 4 of them continued Blading Part 2. Zhirong, Chung Phong, JiaEn and myself decided to call it a day for skating and so we tagged along behind them.
Following ECP, we proceeded to City Hall to meet Geraldine for dinner. Buffet at Sakae Sushi Funan. Survivors for that day were only 6, Zhengyi, Zhirong, Chung Phong, Guang Hong & Geraldine. Damn full -_-
Thursday was the spend money day! Met Kayee for shopping. First had lunch at Chicago's Steak which was having their lunch offer and I felt their prices were pretty cheap, but comparable to the small servings. Walked around Cineleisure killing some time while waiting for the rain to subside before making our way to Hereen. The pair of flip-flops that I wanted didn't had my size there, so we braved the rain back to Cine to look for it. And my 1st buy of that day was made, with that flip flops! Continued walking towards Orchard side and bought 2 latest Kindaichi's comics. Shopping was not to be ceased and I was still trying hard to clothes! And it came no sooner than at Zara when I bought clothes~ And berms later. Wallet casualty for that day: $300 thereabouts.
Friday was to be my last of a week-long outings! Didn't went for Kbox with OG first as I was lunching with Dorcas & Yumei at Brewerkz. Spent almost an hour there dining, drinking and catching up with more Yumei's stories. Haha. Went down to MS's Kbox to meet up with the group. Super long walk from the entrance to the room and I was quite surprise by the turnout, it was good! There was Garfield, Wan Su, Zhi Rong, Aini, Jon, Eve, Yeow Ann, Xin Yu, Cindy, Miao Hui, Guang Hong, Chung Phong, Theodore & Jaden. So sing away it was. Decided to have dinner at the super crowded Cafe Cartel, PS. Waited for damn damn long -_- But to chop better seats for movie later, Zhi Rong went with me to purchase tickets first. 10 tickets! Good attendance for movie too. Watched 'Alone' at midnight with Zhi Rong, Jia En, Boyan, Miao Hui, Guang Hong, Geraldine, Jaden, Cindy & Janet. Was kind of disappointed with it. Definitely not as nice as 'Shutter'. Took a Night Rider home, and capped that day's activities.

Glad I didn't miss Formula 1 just now. What a heck of a race it was. Missed the starting, but there were enough repeats to show what had happened. Heavy downpour caused like 5 cars to skid on to the gravel at the 1st turn.
Though sunshine prevailed after the race was restarted, it was a hell of a race between Massa, Alonso and Raikkonen for 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Not far behind there was also Webber and Wruz for 4th and 5th.
The race was starting to look good for Ferrari when suddenly Raikkonen was losing speed and finally retired with some problem to his car. It was then a fight for champion between Massa and Alonso with Webber and Wruz also in the hunt for the final podium position.
And from no where, rain came again! This time the party for Ferrari's in a mess. Alonso fought hard to overtake Massa and rightly so. He finished like 8s ahead of Massa, man, Ferrari's such a let down on such a big occasion when Massa was at one point leading Alonso by 7s.
7 more races to go, and the championship for the drivers sure is coming down the wire, with Alonso breathing down Hamilton's neck and a mere 2 points seperate those 2. Go Ferrari!

How am I to let go, and embrace the future.
Or is there even a future to be embraced?

It sure feels good to swim. 50 laps! Yay. Super shack now.
Owen rejects exit talk. Definitely looking towards having Owen starting the strikeforce with Viduka or Martins. Go Newcastle!!!!
F1 will be back this week. Good thing last week there was none so I didn't miss any. Go Ferrari!

The smile that was worth a hundred smiles,
The laughter that seems like a hundred jokes being told,
That look on the face that never fades away.

Well, most likely being the last camp that I will be participating in as a member, UC had been a fun experience. Though others who had been through other camps found this not as fun nor exciting, it doesn't really matter!
Had treasure hunt, secret pal (mine sorta disappeared), pool games, night scrabble (night walk), sentosa beach games, salsa mass dance, war games and a clubbing night at Double O.
Update more another time..

Wee! Went to relief teach today. Fai finally managed not to
tua me after promising me a place since such a long time ago.
Nothing really eventful, took a teacher's Sec3NA, Sec1Ex and Sec3NT class. 3NA pretty much don't care but got them to complete the work given. 1Ex's playful, and they love asking irrelevant stuff. Which I remember doing that to my relief teachers in secondary school too, talking about karma! 3NT, simply doesn't care about my existence at all. Blah. I spent 1 period trying to coax them to complete 2 SIMPLE CME worksheets, which consisted of writing not more than 10 words and some ticks & crosses. The other period, I just gaze at them and wonder what would they be like in future, which hopefully there is one.
Packing for Union Camp now. Anxious and excited about it at the same time. Let me go there to have fun!

Maybe it's loneliness or my flat had our electricity cut off in the afternoon, but I finally made my way down to Safra for a good swim. Must have been almost a month since I last swam.
Was supposed to do 10 laps at first, arms and legs started feeling tired towards 10. But continued on to do 20, persevered to 30 and finally pressed on to 40. Longest I ever covered since I did 30 back in my primary school days. Maybe I could do more, but what's the point?
Will try for 50 or more the next time any of the above 2 events happen again, now it's time to sleep. ^^
