Went to Escape yesterday with Carissa, Caiyan, Dawn, Gladys, Mel and Caroline. We sat ALL the rides (that were open). Haha. Except the family coaster which was a little too crowded with young kids.
We went to the 'Wet and Wild' ride first which was kinda fun :) Yes, it involves water which hence explains the word 'wet'. There are 2 drops, one not so high and one very high (15 metres). We screamed like manoonooes. Everyone who sat in the back got VERY wet (as in like drenched) and the ones in the front mainly got their butts wet and also a little damp. So we went to the 'Go-Karts' to dry off. I crashed! Haha. I think I mixed up the brake pedal and accelerate pedal.
At some point of time which I can't remember, we went to sit the 360 degrees ride. It was SO traumatising. Hahaha. At one moment you're upside down and another you're facing the sky. And the sudden jerking makes you wanna puke. But it was pretty fun. Oh and I love the 'Flipper'. It's not as wild as the 360 degrees but it's kinda nice. Escpecially when I sat with Gladys :) Cause of the weight difference, we were sort of swinging straight forward like you're gonna fall off your ride sort of way. Nevermind, I don't think you would get it, but whatever. It was still fun :)
Oh and we walked to Downtown East to cool down and stuff. We walked into this arcade place which I didn't really like cause it was mega crowded and stuff. So we walked around, played games like hockey, racing and basketball. Then, Carol was playing on this machine which was similar to a drumset. You're supposed to follow the screen and hit the correct part of the drumset. So there 3 guys and a girl standing beside and looking at Carol play so after she was finished one of the guys sat down and played. He was
AWESOME. His hands were moving so friggin fast and he hit everything right. Either he's a awesome drummer or he has awesome memory.
After downtown, we walked back to Escape and went in again (we got stamps). Played a few more rides and Caiyan and I left first. We took a cab to her place then the MRT for me to drop off. Nice cab ride with her :) Haha.
Ciao!

Last day of school! Haha. This year has past by too fast, eh? Well, today was okay. We had CME lessons in the morning then recess then a CME test (yes, weird) then we had to clean up our classrooms. The cleaning up was okay. OH YES. I did not tell you guys about the IPP thing yesterday. It stands for In-Place Protection. Something to do with incaseness of a toxic leak or fumes, etc, etc. So we had to run to our classrooms seal every gap in sight, meaning the windows with GARBAGE BAGS and masking tape. Oh yeah, some of them had to make a TEMPORARY TOILET. HAHA. I think some of them took photos of it. It's gross.
So after everything was covered up, we were practically in half-darkness and with few amounts of oxygen. The worst part = no fans are allowed to be switched on. I think we could have died of heat-exhaustion and suffocated. It was so hot and humid. And we had to stay in there for over an hour. After that hour, Major went around the school spraying the "toxic gas" which was actually the fogging gas to kill mosquitoes. When the announcement came that everything was over, we ripped off everything off the windows and breathed in the wonderfully comforting mosquito fogging gas (a.k.a toxic gas). Everyone was just yuck.
Okay, going back to today. We got back our report books and Mrs. ___ gave us lollipops. Haha. Kinda nice of her. After that went to the hall at about 1 for the Thanksgiving service. We sang songs and Christmas carols (?). Yes, it's a little too early for Christmas, but Christmas carols make people jolly and nice :)
Leb wohl!

Teachers' day pictures. Kinball. All pink and big.
Teachers warming up.
Black team scored
Class party. Carol digging into the huge watermelon :)
Went to Toa Payoh South Community Centre to interact and talk to the elderly! They are really nice, really. There was this super cute grandma in blue!! She kept smiling and was super happy and stuff. She talked to me abit but I couldn't really understand her cause she was speaking in cantonese. The woes of not knowing cantonese. I just nodded and smiled. I'm sure she thinks I'm looney.
I felt that the whole thing was kinda dry though. I dunno maybe it's just me. So took the bus back to school and had our CCA verification. I have only 8 CCA points. Laugh. I think those in uniform groups and band have like 14 over points. Plus, their paper had a long list of events on it. I knew I should have joined band. Look at all the credits! Plus it seems fun. Oh boy.
Oh yes. SHE carried an LV to school today. HAHAHAHAHA. Fake. The colour was too dark and it seemed plasticky. And she was carrying it proudly like she was the queen of the world. Hahahaha. Hilarious. Everyone was talking about it. Well, at least I think.
Super boring post today. Sorry folks. Ciao ciao.

Got this from some email. Quite lamely amusing.
Mother: You know Avril Lavigne married some 41 year old man?! It's in the newspaper!
Daughter: Huh *checks newspaper*
Daughter: It says she married someone from SUM 41 lah!Like the new template? Made it myself :D Yes, shocking. Inspired by bubblegum, which I know is illegal in Singapore but I was watching TV and I saw this girl blow this huge bubble so found it really amusing, so hello bubblegum template. Speaking of shocking. Got back English, Math, Home Economics and Chinese paper today. Well, shock is the word to describe the day. Haha. Oh and we had our recess at 11.30. It's like runch (lunch + recess = runch, get it). Canteen was super crowded. It was a blah-boring day. But dalvin was very funny during the checking of scripts, along with the chiter-chatter or everyone (dawn, carissa, caiyan, gladys, etc), made me sort of cheerier.
OH YES. I just found out that OUR T-SHIRT DESIGN HAS BEEN REJECTED. What in the name of Belinda's pen (The Go-Go's) is wrong with our design, one might ask. Well, it is apparently childish. Yes, childish. I think we should put Mathematical formulas like pi=3.14... etc etc. How's that for mature. Rah rah. People are picky and pissy I tell you.
Ciao ciao.
I admit. I'm a SIMS fan. Stone me already.

I hate haze. It makes my nose yucky and my eyes become all poofed up because I tend to tear when I sneeze alot, try 5 hours. So didn't go to school today. Nothing much missed anyway, I hope. Mostly post exams activities and for me, dots connection camp leadership training thing. Well, all we did yesterday was design the camp shirt, which by the way is so gonna be rocking cause our (meaning gladys, caroline, divya, euphoria and I [2e1]) design won!! HAH. Well, only the back design but still :) In your face _ _ _. We also chose the exco (executive company something) and the different teams. I'm in logistics, along with caroline and gladys :) euphoria's in the exco and divya's in welfare. So I sneezed and barely opened my eyes yesterday during the whole 5 hour meeting. Gosh that sucked.
Anyway, checking of scripts tmr! How sensational. Okay. I promised you teachers' day photos. I swear I'll put them up REALLY soon. There are some problems uploading them.. sheesh. can't anyone come up a reliable and properly functioning site that can host images and stuff.
Ciao ciao.

Finals are over :) Someone please hit me. Went out with Dawn, Carissa, Dania, Caiyan, Gaya, Mel, Michelle, Joey, Sarah, Gladys and Caroline yesterday to celebrate Carissa's birthday :) I met Joey at the interchange, then we met Mel, Michelle, Gaya and Caiyan and the rest took Carissa's car. We sort of planned to go to Escape even though it's well, yeah, lame. But exams are over so who cares. So when we got to Pasir Ris interchange, Gladys called me and said that Escape was closed. I put her on loudspeaker and everyone was screaming and being really mad like manoonooes.
So we met them at Pasir Ris then we decided to go to Marina Square to bowl. Mighty fun trip there. We booked 2 lanes and Gladys's shoe size was
ONE.
It's SUPER small. Haha. So cute. I striked! Hah. But only once. But whatever. I have NEVER striked in my life. Yay bowling. After bout 2 hours, they went to the arcade across the bowling alley and then we tried to use the crane thing to catch this really cute Stitch plush, but as you know that machine is bozows. It cheats your money right in front of you! The crane picking up thing literally doesn't grab on to your plush, it just lightly pretends to do so. It's the revenge of the crane-picker-uppers. We played a game of racing which I apparently sucked at so I stopped and watched Gladys and Carol play this zombie killing game. It's super creepy. But people began sort of crowding around to look. Cause their reactions are like super funny when they are tensed. Haha. There was this part where there was this huge whacked out twisted monster (literally twisted) with one eye-ball (i think) and his tongue hanging out and theyy had to kill it. When they are caught by the monster, they have to shake the guns they are holding rapidly (for some yet known reason to me), which is so funny.
After the arcade, we went down to Mac's to eat. In the end, Dawn, Michelle, Caiyan, Caroline, Gladys and Carissa (of course) went to Carissa's HUGE house to watch movies, play computer games and stuff. The rest of us stayed in Marina for awhile, then wandered over to Suntec and ate Sakae Sushi. Haha. We ate till we could eat no more. Super funny. Mel and I were the firsts to feel the horrid stomach-pain-when-you-eat-too-full. So we decided to walk it off by walking outside. When we came back, we found a plateful of rice and seaweed. The rest had ate the toppings of the sushi and left everything else behind. Haha.
After Sakae, we took a bus to
Vivo City. Sarah had to go home first. Anyway, it is HUGE HUGE HUGE. But according to Joey it isn't. Haha. The decor is superb and everythin is so arsty fartsy. So the first store we hit was Toys 'R' Us. Yes, we are still young :) Nah, it was the first store we saw so it looked really quite cute so we went in. THEN, we saw a bunch of fencers and their
coach. Gaya was like esbiofyoawbgmkaewjkfnip. So we walked to the service counter and Mel wanted to ask where The Sylvalian Family was. At least that's how I think it's spelt. They are this adorable pieces of bunnys and hamsters in clothes with a mother, father, a daughter and a son. Along with household stuff like ceramin toilet bowls and whatnot. Cute cute.
Then we walked around somemore and we walked past Starbucks. Dania felt like getting something from there and there were some renovation (ish) stuff going on inside there. But there was a couch in front and there were 2 guys sitting on it drinking from cups. So I assumed it was opened and I told her to go in even thought she asked me whether she was allowed to cause of the renovationy stuff inside. She walked in and this dude told her to come back tmr cause they were under renovation. Haha. We were like super embarassed and he was laughing at us. Oh joy. So we walked somemore and we saw a bunch of _ _ JC and Mel went ballistic and it soon spreaded to us. Haha. It was quite fun really. Then at first floor, there were people walking around with Starbucks sample plastic cups with COFFEE in them. So we were looking around and we saw them. THE STARBUCKS PEOPLE IN THEIR GREEN APRONS HOLDING COFFEE SPRAY GUNS CONNECTED TO HUGE CONTAINERS OF COFFEE. Ah. Glorious coffee. It was mighty nice. After that I got a little high on the coffee and then went ballistic for awhile.
The rooftop garden. Is the ultimate place in Singapore. It is SUPER nice. I should have brought my camera or smth to show you guys the pictures. It was awesome. I just dunno how to describe it. Haha. Sounds so majestic. Anyhow, it's jsut really nice. You people have to get your butts there. I mean Vivo City. But there are quite a few stores still closed cause Vivo City actually OFFICIALLY opens on 1 December.
So reached home and had a Gilmore Girls marathon with my mom. We stayed up till about 4 and watched till we could watch no more. We are hooked on to this show. I am gonna watch every single episode there is. All 144 episodes and still counting. At least it's not like Days of Our Lives. I think there were like about thousands of episodes.
Ciao ciao.
