~ 1:53 PM ~
I've a feeling this holiday is going to pass really quickly without much accomplishment..
It's already into the month of december. Graduation ball is over, camp is over, class chalet is over.. All the events that we were looking forward to for so long have passed in a twinkle of the eye..
Class chalet turned out much better than i expected..
It was fun playing mahjong throughout the night for the first time and interacting with people whom i usually wouldn't find myself communicating with. It was quite an eyeopener, really, to see people like ruth, who is such a potato, learning how to play mahjong. Like sokmui says, the scene of ruth and mahjong just don't match. Though the chalet didn't help much in bonding, i guess it wasn't that bad really. Except for the fact that not everyone enjoyed themselves fully when there were just other dark and black secrets in this event that only the minority know, the rest manages to have a good time themselves. I guess it isnt worth bringing it up in case anyone were to get upset over it. We shall let bygones be bygones.
I should say the most memorable event of the chalet was getting drenched in the rain.. Sometimes we know of some really dark secrets that the crowd doesn't and its quite sad really.
Nevertheless, it was during this chalet that i realised pingkee can actually be a gentleman. lolx.
Ok it goes like this.. A few of us, that is huimin, weiting, weelic, pingkee, qijia, arkar and cybil and i decided to take a walk outside, at the same time, renting some bikes and taking a ride. Then it was so soon after we rode less than 15 mins later to the spider web that it started to rain. And weelic is a wierd guy i must say. Either pretty wierd or pretty brave. That's because he can't roller blade and has nil experience, yet he decides to not follow the crowd (that's us who are cycling) and roller blade on his own. He claims he had enough of cycling since he cycles everyday. OH well.. that's just so weelic.
And as i was saying, the weather decided to make fools out of us. Spending 12 bucks on 2 hours worth of bike, we spent more than half the time wasting away in the shelters due to the downpour. And when we decide that the rain has diminished slightly, we went on towards our destination which was the bike kiosk - to return our bike. Quite dumb isn't it?.. So all we did was rent a bike each, watch arkar and cybil disappear together on their duo bike and weelic acting like a total wierdo, and the rest of us feeling like pieces of lost island as we avoid the flooded shelter due to the incoming rainwater by standing on the small stools.
I guess we are all waiting for the pingkee-is-gentlemanly-part. So... we were all racing like mad back to the kiosk and mid-way we had to stop and seek shelter as the rain became heavier. And i would have thought pingkee would be the first to run off, who would have expected him to follow behind huimin who was having difficulty with her bike and riding alongside her in the heavy rain?...
It was perhaps a small gesture, but since it's coming from pingkee, i guess it's magnified. lol. wait that was supposed to be a compliment -.-
So the other memorable part of the chalet should be the barbecue i suppose.. With some of our teachers coming and YES! MR TAN CAME! lolx. boo to 4/6. and also Mr and Mrs CHong, Ms Pat Goh, Mr Tok and Mr chocolate TAn. lolx.
aRkar reaching out for? the camera??
That's all of us..
Act cute huh?.. even Mr Tan is doing it!!.. lol.. guess Mrs chong is the only saint in here.
yeah.. and that's our 4/7 chalet.
Catching less than 8 hours of slp in 2 days, that's so unlike me. And rushing off early in the morning to meet the team who have already gathered while i was still snoozing in weihong's comfy bed. wow. and it was freezing cold when i woke up to an sms. Dropping by home for less than 15 mins, it was a mad rush that morning, having to make it to school in time for my desired game of captain's ball. It was fun, as usual, hanging out with the team. The details of the camp have been so vividly drawn out in meigui's blog, i guess i need not reiterate.
In a nutshell, it is terrible that their seniors joan and meigui were so enthusiastic that they could fall and injure themselves. Especially our dear joan. Running like mad just to help prevent the juniors from having to gain punishment, therefore losing the foothold.
Water bomb fight was the most fun of course. It wasn't everyday that meigui and i could see eye to eye in a common enemy that day. lols. How can we fight with a bucket of water with tiny plastic bags?.. sorry meigui. i din't mean to dump you when they decide to drench you instead. lolx.
And the biggest joke was some idiot mistaking jeremy for weeyang and pouring a whole bucket of water over his head caught offguard. just because they wore the same shirt. lol. jeremy was fuming mad, you should have all seen him hopping like mad with his injured finger doused in water. ouch
And the overnight stay was a night of mosquito bites and unhealthy diet of Mac in the middle of the night at ard 2 am. i was totally worn out from the continuous strenuous activities of the past two days that i couldn keep my eye lids open much longer. i was then curled up in jenna's red sleeping bag and turned into a queen wormy. nicknamed by jenna the lameo of course.
It was all in all a good time that we had of course.. who wouldn't have a good time with these lame people around?
