hmm. so much to say....can't remember everything.
wed
had "annual general meeting" for table tennis. some of the previous com members gave speeches (like guy's vice cap) but everyone was just too busy cracking up for every sentence he spoke (i've never heard him speak, i realise). *laugh laugh laugh* "over the past year....." he said meekly. *laugh laugh laugh*. i can't remember anythign else. guess it was just him
kemmy is captain, sihuan vice, ben guy's, and donald vice. i was right for the girls'.
so in the end i didn't change out for training..(because i had to leave early. "meeting" with fabian @ moelc)and was. er. taunted by a senior who finally learned of my name and put it to good practice too "sun yi slacking sun yi slacking! sun yi not running!" .....as you can tell, a very. lively senior......"sun yi hiding in a corner!" .........................which was quite true since i was trying to use the phone and i realised that dr. chan was in the hall too.
nvm. last saturday was...worse. not fit to be mentioned.
so went downstairs...met bena and grace. and we stood in the concourse watching chorale perform. quite nice (although...i didn't like a particular song, which sounded slightly messy to me...but then again what do i know about art and music appreciation=P). and luckily, ran into fabian there. he was going to ri with his friend/ccamate/exschoolmate to take (80, if i recall correctly) photos of the rj campus (basically the construction site).
so we took a cab down/up (don't worry he asked for a receipt)
fabian - i need to leave at about 4.15
his friend - where are you going?
f - to the moelc
hf - for what?
f - for a meeting with the german society, sun yi, ivy ............
hf - isn't she here. *point to front seat*
....
the front seat was a little squashy. i knocked my head while getting on. think the passenger before me was rather small-sized?
so i got a free ride and found myself sitting amidst a chaotic moelc canteen all by myself. =( herr w wasn't in the room so i didn't go in. so we had that ... "meeting". and it got quite late. we went to class at 6. but herr w was with us. =S shared our poems, most of us anyway. he got a little worked up when he found out all of us had forgotten to make 10 copies of our poems + translations (i'd better remember before monday)
thurs
the only day left for gp to be done. so. started at 6 and finished at 2. had to reconnect twice. but half of the time spent was non-productive. ah well. zu schlecht.but i finished it! and i even had time to. initiate another conversation (har.harharhar.)at 12am.
fri. ms neo's birthday.
surprisingly with only 4h of sleep i managed to stay awake through ... from 0620 to 2330, by which time i had read 2 lines of "parrot..." in bed and was totally defeated.
chem pract, no pract! only to design experiments. yayayayay. i don't like washing burettes n pipettes. i spend most of my time on that. rather. getting-on-the-nerves-ish at times. especially when my table gets all wet from the water spluttered from the sink and there's so little space such that my worksheet always ends up in a puddle of (mud) water@#!$#!@#%@#$#!@##$@#.oh look little variation. ~!@#$%^&*())(*&^%$#@!~ there we go.
so, highlights of the day included astro interview...which was slightly nerve-racking. haven't felt like that for quite a while. that feeling of .. tense-ness, of detached-ness (i'm sure i can't/shouldn't do this), and then you go through it all in a daze. think it was a good experience, my first interview i think. questions were...as expected. but often i found my sentences dangling in the air, and my mind going blank while answering the questions, and trying to recall what the question actually WAS. digression is a killer. not answering to the point is another one.
the chair and treasurer (who happen to be girls) asked mainly...the secretary reminded me of someone. somehow. he's tchs-ish to me for some reason, or maybe that's only because i found out beforehand. quartermaster1 the prc scholar, leaned against the wall and did not speak at all. and the vice chair didn't ask any qtns as well, but his face is so. contrasting compared to the others it was hard not to notice.
saturday. hon's birthday.
sigh. wake up early. go to school. training. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
har. quite dumb. my right foot tripped over my right foot and i fell over. talk about being clumsy. now my ankle feels sprained at certain angles.
had quite a fun time towards the end, playing with evelyn, who has flowery ways of serving which always baffle me.
finally went off when cai came up to the outside of the hall to make her point. i grabbed my bag and all and asked the teacher whether i could go off, (it was 12.30. training ends at 12, theoretically) but she said "yeeeeeeessssssss...you caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan. but you have to pick some balls up first". (sheepish). (i got a smirk from somewhere/one on the floor).
then i went out for lunch with cai, came back for photog...general interview today, for all members so they can organise us into the subcommittees. so we spent 3hours waiting/socialising in the, "waiting room" natuerlich, sigh. but finally we lodged a complaint when one senior, another prc scholar, ding ding (it's a guy) came in, and the solution was, he stayed permanently to entertain us. i learned more in 10 minutes than i did in 3 hours. he has so much to say about photog....and he sounds interesting too. he likes landscape (yay!) so i shall listen to him more.
so the interview, 2nd one within two days, with denny involved. when i went in i found them in one row behind the teacher's long table facing the back of the room, and the chairs were arranged in a v-shape in front of them, with the most directly facing chair furthest. they said, take your seat, anywhere. immediately a thought came to mind: this must be a personality test. (or am i just too. "sensitive") i still chose the one furthest. (i found out later that cai chose the one nearest to the table, and nearest to the door as well). even after the interview i went back to the waiting room to continue listening.
don't you think photos of..landscape has the ability to..touch? you look at a photo....you FEEL the colours....you breathe deeply, and feel alot more relaxed and at ease. and i don't like people. you have to be fast...how're you going to catch a striking candid shot with all the considerations of the angle, the aperture, the zooming. at least with landscape you can think about it and compose the photo in your head. yeah man.
sunday! = lots of work. that will be done hopefully.
= sleep in!
grrr. 11.30pm. nerves are being gotten on. stupidly here. sheesh. need to look at a pretty picture.
