hmms... does anyone sense that the alignment of my entry and the ::me:: part is abit too high? or is it just my com?? hmmmmmmmmmm... this is weird... i even tried changing the resolution and its still the same thing... please let me know if u c that the alignment is too high... thanksss!

oh and today arh... we had a "surprise" test on sets and factor and remainder theorem... yes, A MATH, u guessed it... and the reason why i say "surprise" is because vera told us the day before about it! hahahah... and some ppl tried to feign shock when mr Tan strode into the room and announced the usual greeting when we hv a surprise test, "Please take out a sheet of foolscap paper and your calculators", by gasping "Har?" and "what?" hahahhaha... and he was like "Don't pretend, i know you know" hahhaha... oh well... and after the test i made a fool of myself again... *SIGH* why is it i always manage to do that in EVERY a math class? blarrrrrrrrrrrr... THU TO THE RESCUE PLEASE!!!! hahahhaha...only problem is, all she really says is "Its the normal differentiation... just do the same thing!" Thing is, WHAT'S the SAME THING??? *SIGH* i'm just soooooo lost lor! geez... even when we had an extra lesson today, i was initially qt happy cos i could do the really easy qns, *like for ONCE man... i'm almost ALWAYS lost in a math* but when we moved on, i drowned... Pretty much! arrrrrrrrrrrrrr and when mr tan asked us to write down a list of the topics we fear and stuff, my list most definitely beat all the others COMBINED! gee.. itwas like EVERY CHAPTER there was something i was lost about lor! arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggggggggggg... and the best part is, That's only A Math!
blarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...i hate this, yes i do... anws i've decided to finish my homework by the end of today, by hook or by crook... so i'd better go yes? haha... till some other time... chow!

arloeeeeeeeeeee! today we had photo taking fer rg and legion... but cos rg photo taking was at eight, we ended up like 35 mins late for our Chinese CA... and he lao shi refused to let us off... and we had to take it! and end at the same time as the others! *WHOOAHH HOW FAIR*... but anw... because of that, i didn't get to touch the last page of compre questions! didn't THAT test just go SWIMMINGLY... *SIGH* oh well i don't care anymore... its not counted in anything anyway... i can't possibly pass now cos of that... unless she's fair and duzzn count the compre or something... hmms oh well... i probably won't pass even if she duzzn count the compre... was too flustered anyway! grrrrrrrr oh well... so much for studying so hard for it...... BLAHHHHHHHH.. hu cares! anw legion photo taking was funnnnnnn! we were outside and the wind was soooooo strong man! hahah it was qt funny cos we had to b real quick... cos the moment the wind stopped blowing, the photographer would take... so yea it was rather funny... i was at the back row with joyce, wyna, hyeh yun, carol and constance and jillian... for ONCE MAN!!! hahahhah anw... it was really great cos fer once, the entire legion is actually together... i mean that is like SUPER RARE LOR... hahahhaha so yea... oh well! overall i guess today was alright.. could definitely hv been better... esp cos i was soooooper late fer bio pract and took soooooo long to do it cos of the briefing after school... and after that trng was no better actually... pam was so glum and i just COULDN'T get her out of it! in fact she was starting to burn out whatever enthusiasm i had initially... and my efforts to cheer her up were just amusing nicole... but basically, the hoops spent trng slacking mostly cos lao shi was busy concentrating on the other parts... good i guess? haha... at least she's stopped badgering andrea and nicole to join individual... but hu noes, she'll probably start it up again on saturday... *SIGH* oh well! okaes gotta bathe nows... ciao! x)

oh yea and this is especially for the 4/8 peeps... enjoy ur self awareness camp u guys! and make the most of it... like i said earlier, you won't forget it for a long, loooong time... loveya guys! esp. jo, hyeh yun, gen, and the rest of the recess gang! :)

hi! sorry i hvn't been blogging fer the past hmm... week? haha... but anw, this week's been pretty busy fer me and i've had like four tests this week... *sigh* and guess what, i still hv a wonderful chinese test to look forward to on tuesday!
bahhhh.... oh well! today i had gym in the morning, followed by physics stretch programme... Gym was TERRIBLE! it was HORRIBLY TIRING! but i'm kinda glad we've got su lao shi... cos i hv to say she's much firmer than gou lao shi... but anw... she's much scarier too! hahah... and in addition, i'm kinda glad our sec 1s are so good too... cos it seriously pressures me to work harder and improve on myself much more! so in a way i guess its all good for our improvement... but i REEEEEEEALLY hope we'll win something this year! esp fer C and B Div groups... esp since Cedar gym is closed! and zhonghua too... but anw... after gym we rushed to physics stretch.. amazingly, all the sec 4s who were at training this morning were in it! *whoah* haha and we were fortunate enough to hv nicole's dad drop us off at the st Raphael's block... so sweet right? *grin* haha anw... we had the stretch prog... but we used like 5/1 and 5/2... and both rooms were converted to one room... so it was like HERYUUUUUUGE... and there were sooooo many ppl man! it was terrible, esp cos i was seated right at the back row... and i was squinting the whole time to see the words on the transparency... haha... and everytime mrs tang explained a qn, alicia and i would try to comprehend it, and by the time we did, mrs tang would hv been done with the next qn! and then we would b behind again... *SIGH*... it was pretty much some sort of vicious cycle man...haha... and after that, gen and i were supposed to go with jo and joyce for the 1pm novena service but gen had to go to the arc room and it was 12:50, joyce left first... and gen and i had lunch at mac's , and then went for the 2pm service... saw mekella(? spelling haha) there with her bf *I THINK* but i doubt she recognised me lar... so sad! haha... saw jelly too... wanted to talk to her after novena but she disappeared soon after... oh well... but anw after that gen and i wrote petitions and we went to siglap, after roaming around cold storage fer awhile... at city hall mrt, i squeezed onto the train but gen missed it in the end! so i waited at tanah merah fer her... and guess wat, jenna was on the same train! haha... saw her coming down the stairs as i was heading to the gates... haha! oh well... then when gen came on the next train, we took 12 (which happened to come once we reached the bus stop) to siglap and went up to the reading room... where i wasted some time and vanessa was there too... then we had class... after that i sat in the advanced class... kinda... INTERESTING... but awfully scary! haha... hmm... but i DID manage to get some decent stretching in tho! that was before i got a splitting headache... haha... sigh... oh well! got a whole ton of chem tys and physics tys to do! plus i gotta bathe... WHOOPS... haha! oh well... tried the foot massage dad won today... kinda cool! haha... ok gtg nows... chow!

Monday, February 02, 2004

okay... i've decided to blog about the self-awareness camp!... oh yes and to all those who haven't gone for ur camp yet, and want to be surprised, don't read my entry ok? this is just a reflection that i did on the whole thing... and i don't wanna spoil the surprise for anyone who duzzn want it spoiled... so yea... don't read it if you don't want to!

actually, i really hv no idea where to start! ok then frm the beginning...

on the first morning, i was feeling kinda kiasu so i made sure my dad and i left the house at six am! wahahah! cos i needed to top up my phone at the SAM so yea... haha and after that i realised it was too early but no matter how sloooooooowly my dad drove, i STILL reached there at 6.20! gaaaaarrrrrrrrrwsh.. haha so i walked the long lonely path to the st raphael's block and i saw peiwen in her class so i decided to use the com too... and surprise, surprise, the cursor could be seen!!!!!!! geeez man... our com is the most pathetic thing ever ok... uuuurgh... and it was reeeeeally lame cos peiwen started talking to me over msn... but bcos the com was sooooooooo slooooooowww *c how pathetic it is?!*, i took like five mins to reply to her message... haha oh well... did some blog-hopping and tagging... then lots of others came into class... and after awhile i got fed up with waiting for the stupid com so i switched it off... took some photos, compared bag size with chang xi and sheryl... haha and then we went down fer assembly, where we saw 4/2's class shirt for the second time (for me anw haha).. and i STILL think ours is SO MUCH nicer!! no matter what JOYCE says... haha... what with the shirt QUALITY! and our design was also OBVIOUSLY nicer... but i hv to admit our words were a lil erm... haha the logos were really reeeeeeeeeally nice tho!!! haha... i mean, alicia should hv done the 4/2 shirt lorrrr... i'm sure theirs would b so much nicer than ours if she did! tsk tsk, wasted talent but anyway! hhahahha... hmm... after assembly, we went back to class, took our bags and went to the canteen in the st michael's block, where we fooled around a bit while mrs tay was trying to get a head count in.. haha... and after that ms tan came to brief us and talk to us about us goin fer self-awareness camp and stuff... then she said a prayer for us and we took some photos as a class... 4/2 took photos in the grotto... and then i took with constance and joyce... but they were panicking about alicia's disappearance mainly... so yea anw... after that we boarded the bus... dunno wat happened to the alicia incident in the end but i think according to joyce they waited and she arrived twenty mins later or something... so anyway we left... and i sat with cerise, with yiling and sarah in front of us, and bernie and hazel across frm us, and melissa and ruo yun in front of them... and then halfway there carmen asked me to start off singing practice, so i did, but i hv to say it didn't exactly go most wonderfully, but anw..... haha... when we got there, we got off the bus and a nun briefed us about where everything was and what we should do with our beds... and as usual, the normal people took over everything and briefed everyone else on the same thing... so it turned out that the games and food comms were in the dorms on the third floor, while the mass and logistics comms were on the fourth... if you ask me, that segregated the class even more obviously than ever before but i didn't say anything... and also, the games and food comms were bigger than the mass and logistics comms, so i think it should hv been in another combination, but i'm not complaining... after all, we were the ones with miles of space to spare... And beds, might i add... haha so anyway, there were 24 ppl squeezing downstairs while the other 18 of us had a roomy dorm upstairs... yi en and i helped to distribute the bedsheets and pillowcases, and we all made our beds... good thing was everyone there was really cooperative... so we finished the job real fast... soon someone realised we were waaaaaaay behind schedule so both our comms rushed down to the session hall on the second floor, and it turned out we were there much faster than the other two comms so when they arrived, mrs tay and mrs tan (oh yes i didn't mention that mrs tan came in her own car! shucks should hv gone with her...haha it would hv been so much more fun! wahah!) briefed us on the basic rules and aims of the camp and stuff.. u noe... haha and then we played AN icebreaker, which was dog and bone... cos we only had time for one... and we spent so much stupid time on it cos mrs tay was being so troublesome in calling out the numbers in a complicated fashion like "the highest common factor of 3 and 4" or something lame like that... but the thing was, she just kept calling all the same numbers! so there were a lot of ppl who didn't get to run in for the bone... and i think that was bad... so after that we were made to do some forfeits for running in wrongly... and we did some imitation of William Hung frm American Idol... but personally i felt quite sorry for him so i didn't really laugh as much as the rest... and we also did the chicken dance but anw... after that we had our first session... mrs tan conducted it... it was called something about diamonds i think... we were given sheets of paper with the facets of a diamond, and we had to write our personal motto on the inside, then on the conceding circles of facets, the things we valued and the events in our lives that were significant and the things we wanted to achieve later in our lives... and thru that i think we were supposed to discover more about ourselves but oh well... anw after that, we had a second session, which mrs tay conducted... and it was called exchanges or something... and this was quite interesting lar... we were arranged in 4 concentric circles, and the circles two and four (if you count from the outside) had to tell the outer circle they were sitting and facing a quality they wanted from the person and what they could offer the person in return for that quality... and vice versa after that... and the circles 2 and 4 would move to their right when the bell rang and both ppl would hv new ppl to talk to... so that was pretty nice... tho i didn't get to talk to ppl i really wanted to talk to... cos i was in circle 1... so we didn't move AT ALL... so yea... however vera and i did learn that many people asked both of us for the same things and offered us the same things in return! that was rather interesting i think... and after that session, mrs tay decided we should hv lunch first... so we did... cos we were all reeeeally hungry by then... and that was around twelve? haha... mayb cos we didnt hv recess! haha oh well... so we had a most delicious lunch surprisingly... it was vegetarian but it was scrumptious still! there was like pasta, and the sauce was just LADEN with mushrooms so i just loved that, and there was also side dishes of mushrooms and broccoli, with corn and peas and carrots at the bottom, and there was another dish which i can't quite think of right now... but it was soooooooooo yumMMM! haha... and there was the DESSERT!! oh gosh i hv yet to scream about that.... siiiiiiighhhhhhh it was sooooooooo yummmmmmmyy! there were apple crumbles for desserts, and they were the most heavenly of all apple things i hv ever eaten in my LIFE! i'm serious man... it was just SCRUMPTIOUS! i must hv eaten like five in total... mmmmmmm mmmmmmmmm goooooooood!!!! haha... and our drinks were some mango fizz i think... but the fizz pretty much fizzed out except for a teeny bit... so yea... haha! and after that, thu and i were walking back to the session hall for the next one when we were stopped at the window by Sister, who told us that the area we used for lunch was not under her and that the sister it belonged to was really not entirely thrilled at the prospect of us using it... WHOOPS... so we had a mad rush to clear the tables and chairs and the food... and sarah was trying to ask everyone to help finish the apple crumbles, so i suggested that they leave it for tea later... cos if there was no one who wanted them, I sure did... hahahahha! ok... anw, after that we sat in the session hall designing our warm fuzzy envelopes... and i did my own as well as vera's... and we put up our envelopes on the wall of the session hall... and then we were shooed out for five minutes so mrs tay and mrs tan could prepare for the next session...

The next session was called Photo Language... but before that cos we were all gathered outside the hall waiting to go in, i smelt the scent of aromatherapy, and i just knew then and there that we were going to hv to share about something... so when we went in, i wasn't entirely surprised to see a circle of photos lining the floor... and we were instructed to walk in a circle and look at all the photos... and we did this for two rounds, and on the third round, we were told to pick up one which we particularly liked, and if more than one person chose the same one, we were to sit together... so i was among the first few people to walk around the circle so i managed to pick one up... and it turned out that thu and trang and priscilla chose it too... it was of two very cute children, but one was behind two bars. that was wat i thought of it anyway, and before the teachers could tell us not to, the four of us told each other what our interpretations of the photo was... and the surprising thing was thu thought it was a playground ladder... and priscilla chose it cos she really liked the girl's face... so one by one, we were to get up and share with the class what we thought of the picture, our interpretation of it and why we chose it, what it reminded us of, and what feelings we felt by looking at it... mrs tan just so happened to want the ics first... but i really didn't feel ready to share so fast... because i still needed to think properly about it... but i was forced to, after yi en and sheryl... so i did, and i was the first one to start crying... and the amazing thing was, when i went to sit down, i didn't realise that i had made so many people tear too... sorry about that... but anw... after me, sarah shared... and after her, the rest of the class, but everyone shared... and that was a really good thing... however there were some who really didn't reveal ANYTHING about themselves... and that was kinda sad... anyway, other than that, there were some sharings that i could really relate to, and i would just start crying all over again... and this just went on for the whole duration of the session, which lasted about two and a half hours... oh and did i mention that mrs tay had to leave for a MOE meeting halfway? so she basically missed most of the crying... and it was quite sad cos wan ling shared something really big about herself... and my heart really went out to cynthia too.. she appeared to hv gone through alot herself as well... but anw... having read joyce's blog, i hv to say that wat mrs low did throughout the camp was reeally cool of her... whatwith the "call me MAG" thing and the fact that she shared too... i think that would hv been much cooler... but oh well... anw... that session really made me think a LOT... and i realised how many people in our class actually aren't all that well off... tho there are like four or five who don't seem to hv problems at all... but anw... i cried a record 12 tissues! i made like a pile of my own tissues... gosh.. haha... and when mrs tan passed around a large plastic bag to put all our tissues in, the bag was FULL! hahahahhaha... hmm oh well... after that i dunno why... but we just went around hugging each other... i didn't really go around actualy... people jsut came to affirm me... and i was just really thankful for anyone who came over to hug me... cos at that time i just really needed someone to hug... so yea we all just went around crying and hugging each other, and i feel that really helped us bond... but anw, after that we had another session, which was about developing communication skills... we were separated into two groups, and we were given clues on paper to solve a murder... actually i think our class did it in 2/4 or last yr... can't qt remember... but anyway that session made me realise how adamant about my opinions i always was... and i realised how bad it had gotten... so now i guess i'm a lil more aware about myself, so i'm trying to start thinking before i speak... after that there was this personal reconciliation thing, but we had to prepare for mass so we weren't doing it... and the mass... it was conducted by fr Michael Sitaram (haha 4/2! *grin*) and he was really great! even tho the mass was a total screw-up, he still managed to turn it around, and people said that they actually felt something and that they actually enjoyed it! that's how good he is man... pity he's frm SJI... hahah! i thot the mass was completely bad and i ended up crying again... * you must be thinking at this point that i'm a real saddo.. always crying! but i c ur point...* the sweet thing was, catherine came over and told me that she and chang xi had added in a petition for me! the terrible thing was that i didn't hear it! but i was really touched at that... and i started to think that there really ARE people who care... and i'm really glad for that! yiling was also consoling me by telling me it was good.. and so was sarah.. and i really thank everyone who consoled me in one way or another, esp ms teo... and that really changed my perception of her...

okay enough sad stuff! after mass and after clearing up the stuff, we all went to holland village for dinner! i thot that was really cool... and we each had five bucks to spend on dinner! and of course, we could feel free to add our own... :D so rae wen, yiling, cerise, bernie, hazel and i trooped over to nydc to meet miss teo and mrs lee to hv dinner... initially carmen, chang xi, vera, cat, krystle, sheryl, michelle and glenda went inside first to sit down, while we six stayed outside waiting for mrs lee to decide if she wanted to eat at nydc or crystal jade... actually of course my preference was nydc *CHOCOLATE! AHHHHHHH!!!!* hahahha... but i also wanted to try crystal jade cos i had nv been there before... so yea... but in the end she decided to eat at nydc so we went in too... however it ended up just the six of us eating together and the rest of them together... they didn't talk to us and we weren't exactly able to talk to them either... except for a bit of conversation with mrs lee and melissa here and there... and of course there was me screaming to chang xi about whether we should share a chocolate dessert!! haha... sad thing is in the end we didn't... *sigh* but i still managed to get my chocolate! turns out rae wen's a chocolate freak too! plus, she was right next to me! so, added to the chicken presto pizza (which bernie and i didn't eat-- we didn't eat vegetarian for lunch for nothing!) and the mushroom madness pizza (ooooooooo i just LOVED that! it was a little burnt but just the way i like it! *grin*), we had DESSERTS! we had a Times Square Brownie Freeze and a The Spy who Loved me... ok it duzzn sound so delicious here but i shall proceed to make josephine drool! ;) the times square brownie freeze was frozen brownie, laden with a scoop of french vanilla ice cream and DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM! And, a LOT of chocolate cookie chunks and LOTS OF CHOCOLATE SAUCE!!!! mmmmmmmmmmm... and the spy who loved me was EVEN NICER! NO VANILLA! just two scoops of DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM, OREO COOKIE CRUMBS, CHOCOLATE COOKIE CHUNKS, CHOCOLATE SAUCE and two cherries!!!!!! ohhhhhhhhhhhhh... drool now!!!!!!! :D:D:D... sigh i just wish it lasted forever! siiiiiiiiggggghhhhhhhhhh... whoa it was just soooooooooo yummmmmmmmm!!!!! and guess what, among the six of us, we only spent about seven bucks each! *grin grin* gosh.. so actually, the fact that we didn't really talk much was completely made up for by the most scrumptious delicious food! whooooooooo hooooooo!!! :D:D:D some 42 satisfied tummies headed back to the FMM centre at 8.45 that night!!!!!

after that, we had talentime in the session hall... sad thing was that the games were cancelled cos there wasn't enough time... and talentime didn't exactly go as we had hoped either... esp cos bernie's player refused to play corinne's cd... so cerise and i didn't do our item... in the end we just sang to the other group's Bring it all Back... haha... and it was quite lame cos i forgot what was next for a short while and then cerise missed out a whole chunk! haha anyway it was fun... and before we did our item there were many other entertaining and very lame items... but most of us were just high... esp the usually serious ppl... they just went whack! hahaha... it was fun to watch people performing and singing and acting like boybands and some of the most unexpected people danced too! also, we discovered hidden talents such as Li Ting... did anybody noe she can sing? really really well? oooooooo... :D and there were the interesting displays like Trang, Thu, Aline's and Luu's item... they did the Macarena and the Limbo! that was really interesting and really entertaining might i add! also carmen and pauline did an item that was split into a few parts... all very retarded but very sporting of them too! there was also vera, chang xi, melissa, krystle and cat doing the skipping item...that was funny cos they kept messing up but we just cheered them on anyway... and during the singing items, we were mostly waving our arms in the air like crazed fanatics.. and people kept shouting stuff like "WO MEN HUI YONG YUAN ZHI CHI NI!" and stuff like that... it was really funny... and after the talentime, we had another session which was called Getting to know me, getting to know you. it was this list with a bunch of statements and we were to rank ourselves 1,2,3 or 4, and then we had to fold our ratings of ourselves over and ask two other friends to do it, folding theirs after they were done.. i got three people to do it for me... Aline, Sarah and Catherine... 3 very different people with 3 pretty different ratings... however, when i compared them, i realised that Catherine's was the most accurate one... which just shows how surprising some things can turn out... after that Sheryl made us do some cheers and oh yar, we sang the IJ spirit song before the last session... after that, we went back to our dorms... and some went to bathe... initially i thought i would not have to bathe but i realised how sticky i was and i couldn't take it so at eleven thirty, sheryl and i went to bathe... and that was after alot of people had bathed already... and i should tell you the water was minus twenty degrees celsius!!!!!!!! my gosh! i nearly froze to death ok!!!! that was really the first time in my life that i had actually bathed with REALLY COLD water.. as in NO HEATER at ALL... so yea... the only good thing about it was that it really RUSHED me... i was out in less than five minutes! i really couldn't take it in there... but sheryl said that it WAS cold, but after awhile it was SHIOK! i was like EXCUSE ME! hahahah... but anyway that was really crazy cos i was hopping around the whole time the shower was on... haha! and after that we dropped by the kitchen to grab some paper to write warm fuzzies, and i also grabbed another piece of chocolate cake which we had for the january and early february babies... and after that, i went up to the dorm and we started the gambling card games! we didn't gamble with money tho... and that was relatively wasted, cos actually i kept winning bridge! except for a few rounds... haha but it was pretty fun! yet quite subdued... and i have no idea why... and we also played dai di too... oh and i forgot to mention that prissy's group was playing blackjack too... on the two beds beside ours which we had joined in one long stretch... and after playing dai di till about 1.30 in the morning, mrs tan swooped by and caught us playing! despite my saddo attempt at singing "1,2,3, Jesus loves me, 1,2, Jesus loves you." haha oh well! least i tried... but anw she didn't do anything about it... so hu cares! hahahah... and the amazing thing was that our dorm was noisier than the dorm downstairs! that was like WHOAH unbelievable man.. haha... but we all slept earlier than them... after the lights in our dorm went off, yiling and i stayed up writing warm fuzzies, but she slept before i did... i slept at 2... but there were people who went down to the ground floor to talk some more... i think they slept at like 3.30 or maybe even 4... so yea... and we woke up at seven the next morning...

when we all first opened our eyes, i didn't wanna get up but STUPID JESSIE switched on all the blardy lights!!!!! all of us were like AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! hahhaahha cos it was suddenly so bright... but she switched them off again later... then i forced myself to get up and out of bed cos my body somehow for some reason seemed to be clamped to it... haha... and i'm kinda glad we told everybody to remove their bedsheets and pillowcases and replace the cover sheet on the beds before we went down for breakfast so by the time we had breakfast, the mass and logistics comms had already settled our dorms! cool eh? haha... for breakfast, we had digestive biscuits and milo again... but this time i hv to say it was nicer than the previous batch ahahha...but anw, after breakfast, we wrote our last minute warm fuzzies and mailed them, and then we were grouped into six groups for the next two sessions... the first one was that we had to construct a tower out of newspaper and tape which was as high as possible and at least two metres high... without talking at all... and that one was pretty exciting...hahahhaha cos our group and luu, trang, cerise, melissa, yi en's group were head to head... cos our towers were going up equally quickly... and our tower could actually have won! only thing was that ours toppled at the very LAST part... cos the top was too thick and the center part was too soft so it bent... so wasted! haha... but oh well... and after that session, we had to do class banners on mahjong paper... that was slightly boring too... cos everyone was just beat frm the day before... and the only really "on" group was thu's group, cos she drew everything! hahahah... oh well! after those two sessions we went up to clean up the toilets and ensure that the dorms were clean... and i'm v proud of the logistics and mass comms! cos everyone was so cooperative and everyone listened to yi en and i... so happy! we cleared off everything so fast! haha.. and then we met downstairs in the canteen after mrs tay and i did a final check... and after i said the closing camp prayer, we had a toast with some apple and white and red grape fizz... all the leaders and the teachers opened the cork of one of the bottles! i think that was pretty cool... cos that was my first time! that was fun... tho i had a relatively hard time removing mine! hahaha.... it was cool cos they all flew far! and mrs tan caught her own before it flew! that was funny... haha... and after yam senging and cheering three cheers for many things, we were given back our warm fuzzy envelopes and a flowered sheet of paper, on which we were supposed to get our friends to sign the appropriate petals on the flower that applied to us... and after that, we took some photos outside and left... cos cerise's dad fetched yiling and i to amk mrt station... so that saved alot of time...

so yarp, that's pretty much what happened at my self-awareness camp... it will definitely not be exactly the same for anyone else, so i just hv to say to all those who haven't gone and are reading this, that your experience can only be your own... and no one can change it... and trust me, you won't forget it for a long, long time.
