Soccer training if fun.... at least much more fun than sitting at home and growing fatter.. Initially, I was feeling fine for the first part of soccer training... Then some stupid stomach cramp or whatever had to appear right at the moment. Wah it was really quite difficult to tahan, so I went to rest. I was not feeling better until jaryl advised me to lie down. And it worked. Well, it happened last training too, so its kinda very suay.. Hope it does'nt happen next training on friday. Maybe its cause I haven been exercising for a long long time... at least not at the intensity of last year where we played soccer like everyday.. This year, its hardly once or twice every 2 to 3 months.
One thing about soccer training is that its on monday, wednesday and friday.. The best part is its from 4 to 6, which means on that day you practically can't go out at all... Coach apparently does'nt want to conduct training in the morning cause we might oversleep lol.. Maybe he does'nt have the time..
Its gonna be a busy june for me... Lots of things to do, like planning of some exploration game(scouts) which I am a bit....lost. Soccer training takes up half of the hols, together with other scouts stuff, like the patrol leader training camp... Its gonna be a packed holiday.. Hope my dad cooks up some holiday plan and maybe I can get a better rest(not that I'm stressed up or anything).

Yo... Back from the UG camp and all those other stuff. I've been real busy these few days, like on wednesday was at botanic garden then rushed back to czps to help promote nush with mr koh doing most of the talking, and then went back to nushs to do duty for the SYSF or something like that. I was like basically handling the PA for mr koh and then had 5 mins to prepare some 2 min speech for the students. Jaryl went along too. Some people would say that whenever I talk in front of people, I'm too Singlish. Well, I guess thats quite true, I'd better work on it. Maybe whenever I speak Singlish too excessively, I should get someone to remind me to mind my language. Oh ya, mr koh is nice :) He brought me back to nushs and along the way he treated me to macs! So nice right..... Well, my duty for the SYSF was food duty, which is basically doing nothing at first and when people come, you promote the food like siao. In the end we still had a whole chunk of food left uneaten.
After that I went to my dad's office and took a short nap there, around 2 hours lol. We went to Peach Garden to celebrate my dad's birthday. I heard there was a telescope there but I didn't get to try it... The food there was excellent though. It was real fun talking around with my siblings and parents. Long time since we did that. Reached home around 11 plus. I realised that I had not packed for my camp yet lol. I was rushing all my stuff and ended up sleeping around 12.
Camp was quite ok, those kind of not boring yet a little fun type of camp. I must admit there was a good effort put in by the organisers for this camp. They worked really hard and I must say I appreciate it. First day of the camp was basically setting up of the tents which we scouts finished in a whiff. The girls guides were quite slow in pitching their tent, probably because they didn know lol. Their tent was like, ancient. It had wooden pegs compared to our metal pegs and no floor mat. So it was quite pathetic. But we scouts should had gone help them. Well, never mind. lol. Dinner was after that, not that great though, what do you expect in a camp. War games which consisted of throwing water bombs was expected to last for quite a while but ended after 5 min because of lack of water bombs, so we ended up playing capture the 'fag'. We chose our 'fag', clement :) It was real rough during the game, I remember there was one SJAB guy pushing all of us away! The rules could have been better there, like if you touch an opposition he has to go back to base etc. Went to bathe and sleep after that.
Woke up at 530 the next morning and prepared for PT. PT was basically quite bullsh*t. We did some very light streching which missed alot of parts, 10 pumpings and 500m of jogging. After that went for kayaking. We were quite lucky we were going out first, cause we didn have to wash the kayak after that. I was kayaking with teck lim and our paddles went colliding lol. Lucky we didn capsize, on purpose or not on purpose. Rafting all the kayaks together was fun. Basically all the kayaks line up in one line, we hold onto each other and slack, and watch us drift too lol. After bringing our kayaks back to shore we went to slack in the water, like just float around and push randy's kayak. After washing up etc I went to take a short nap. I conveniently overslept a little, sorry guys. We went to discuss our campfire item afterwards. At first, we wanted to do some story about bananas and ghosts you find the the four different types of cemetries, i.e. Chinese, Muslim, Indian, Eurasian. Our moral of the story was apparantly racial harmony lol. But when we mentioned that we wanted a "hantu te-tek" in the story, the girl guides freaked out. Because.... go find out yourself :) After more discussion, we settled on modified fairytales featuring clement-tea as the lead actor/actress. The story was about clement-tea and his failure in love lol. Basically it was snow white, rapenzel, little red riding hood, henzel and gretel, and some story i cant remember. Yew Chun then came and gave us nice chocolate to eat.
Outdoor cooking was next. Randy was trying real hard to set up the fire but apparently we got owned by the other group of scouts lol. Yew chun saw this and was like quite disappointed with us. But ah well, after that our fire was bigger than theirs. Randy and daniel soon had to go off to prepare the campfire, so I was the most senior in my 'fire-group', so I was the one in charge of maintaining the fire. Well, I managed to maintain the fire but got no style one. I was like anyhow putting in wood into the fire to burn. At least we cooked quite a lot of food, like 7-8 packets of maggi and 2 mess tins of vegetables. We went to the campfire after cleaning up. It was quite sad, like they got not enough kerosene to start the fire. However, all was solved with the introduction of solid fuel lol. It was like the most cheapskate method but oh well, at least the fire started. The fire was real fierce at first, then it died down in like 20-25 minutes. All the while, we just sang songs and the different UGs performed. Well, shall not really go into details but I have to say that randy is dam good narrator. Most of the storyline was made up on the spot by him, which was quite amusing too. Went to sleep the earliest, as usual :D
Today, clayton, chong wei, randy, clement and me went off early, which means we miss packing up. Well, sorry guys again, but I have a legitemate reason. Went to school to take a bath. The showers in school are so much better than those at camp christine (our campsite). Its like 2 to 3 times larger and the shower was much stronger. So those camping in school should appreciate this! Well, the school had a soccer competition but I could not make it, cause of the archeaology thingo. Heard that we were not bad, so good job! While waiting for some time cause it was still too early, we got hold of lian han's phone. Just ask any soccer guys and you'll know how horny lian han is. Thanks to clayton, I dropped at sommerset when douby gaut was nearer to the National Muesum for the archeaology course. In the end I had to walk 20 minutes with a camp bag and call my dad for directions. Well, I don't exactly blame clayton, since I chose to trust him. Well, I was so sleepy that I could not really pay attention to the guy conducting the course. It was quite fun overall, though it was tiring to carry my camp bag to fort canning hill to view some exhibits and the place was darn cold.
I just went home after that via mrt. I didn get a sit so I had to carry my camp bag all the while... The moment I reached home I just took a nap. My mum woke me up at 7 to go to my aunt's house to celebrate the full month of my cousin's child, which means I'm an uncle already. Actually I was already one quite some time ago. After dinner etc went back home, gonna to sleep soon! So I guess that sums up my busy few days, and I gotta go! Ciao.

Ok guys sorry i didn reply most of the tags on the tagboard.... I just didn feel like... Well since i'm here i might as well reply to the tags... about gerlynn's comment about whether the place would have a dvd player..i'm quite stumped too. I've been trying to contact costa sands but they're out for the weekends. But anyway, whaipeng told me that janell has some sort of portable dvd player, not sure about that though... Maybe we can just use a PS2 or sth to play the dvds, we'll find a way. Anyway, I was randomly but not so randomly choosing a date for the chalet with the help of whai peng since debra was not online. I think the 14th of June would be a good date. Its on a Thursday so we enjoy the weekday rates. I think we need to quickly get this booked if not we'll have no place anymore. Then this whole thing would be postponed, which i would not like to see. So i really like to know whether you guys can make it on this date, the 14th of June, to this chalet. Please tag on my tag board or email me!

Hey! The exams are finally over! Well it was a day ago...lol. yesterday right after the exams went out to try ice skating lol. and instead of my legs hurting, it ended up with my wrist hurting..lol! Well after that had lunch all thse kind of normal things..... and then we went to the arcade.. Ahmed is a bloddy cheat lol, well i'm a little too. lol. We went to play daytona lol. The first time i played with muddy he was like trying to displace me first like going onto my poutside and pushing me onto the grass. lol instead i pushed him right into the wall lol. In the end i won by a little... the second game i played with ahmed, i was like owning him by at least half a lap.. then he took the short cut meant for pit stops=.=. then he won. what a cheat lol. no hard feelings man ahmed!
Hmm. now about 205 chalet. Guys i really need your responses, so please tell me or debra when are you all free for the chalet, and whether you all want to go in the first place. For your information, we're gonna book 2 chalets, one for boys and one for girls. Too bad for people like ahmed who was expecting a mass orgy. The expected cost for this whole thing if 15 people are going is gonna be around 25 bucks the most. Thats really the most cause we wont be spending that much anyway. Also, please be informed that its gonna be a weekday chalet, basically because its much cheaper. If you've got any objections, once again come find me.
What I really hope to see is people coming up to me and saying how they can help in the chalet planning. I'm sure there are people of this kind in our class! So come grab your opportunities now by finding me!
Jobs up for grabs include:
1. Orgainse people to buy logistics for bbq
2. Finding and renting nice movies for our proposed movie marathon
Thats all I can think of for now... so if you want to do something for the class, find me or contact me by sms, email, im or anything. Thanks in advance!

Heres a pic of the chalet...
it has....
Twin beds with 2 pull-out beds
Towels
Fully air-conditioned
Refrigerator
Hot Water Flask

This song just makes me feel great. It's really meaningful...Just look at it a little deeper and you'll find the light in it. Have a good time dwelling on this song, cause you won't regret it. Sometimes when I listen to this song I can feel sad.... even when I don't have anything to feel sad about!
Cannonball Lyrics » Damien Rice
Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what's going on
Still a little bit of your ghost your witness
Still a little BIT of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer EACH DAY
Still I can't SAY what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball
Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer TO ME
So close that I can't see what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fallWhen you float like a cannon
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on courage!Teach me to be shy
'Cause it's not hard to fall
And I don't WANNA scare her
It's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna lose
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you just don't know

Today went out to the airport to try to study. I emphaise the word TRY. Its no wonder, with ahmed. Jaryl also came. We were sitting at macs studying and drinking expensive stuff. I didn't know one milo cost 2.20!! like wtf, i can go home make better than that and cost less. Well, we could concentrate for quite a while, i studied a little bio, chem and history. Then, we conincidentally met siaw yang, donavan at macs too. Initially siaw yang said he said hi to us, but apparantly we could not hear him lol. So we only knew when don came over and talked to us. We squeezed a little and fit into the table nicely. Then, ahmed had to start talking. Everyone ended up getting distracted and talking too. Well, it wasnt that bad, but still. Don then told us kay wee and marianne were coming too. So well, we just...planed for them to be alone at another table. Before we knew anything, we were like chased out of macs.
We then went for lunch at the foodcourt and i ate some nice noodles which jaryl introduced to me and its called....i forgot =.=. After everyone finished eating we could not decide where to go, terminal 1 or 2. Don then took out his phone, then said top is terminal 1, bottom is terminal 2. He then threw his phone on the table! lol! jaryl, ahmed and i were like wtf! but then he said his phone's dying already, oh well. So we went to the viewing gallery and study. I felt quite unconfortable studying there cause the lighting is like......dark? I just continued studying anyway. Went home earlier than the rest with ahmed. Had a nice sleep on the bus, for 15 minutes. yawn. bye.
