a busy week it has been, but thankfully filled only with activities and not the stress and homework that'll come in due time (say, next week).
had training on monday, tuesday, first game on wednesday, nothing exciting, as expected both guys and girls 5:0-ed their opponents.

i really love the school after everyone leaves in the evening. i think this started during the march hols. it feels really relaxed and warm. i stayed back coz dental appointment was at 8.30pm.
nonchalance, turbulence. still havent' done what i said i'd do. =S.
fri
exciting!! overnight today!
at 12.30 after the row of 5 tutorials i really couldn't stand it. i'd rather have a 4.30 day on monday than on a friday. and seeing the engine pple fleeing at 12.30pm out of school was the last straw. ARGH.
but qa test as i was told, was indeed not too difficult. the last qtn was quite interesting. i can say this coz for the first time i had enough time!
ran with bena after school for about 20mins, caught up on some gossip harhar=) the only time to. honlyn lent me her heartshaped pillow=) (school's good as you can tell. enjoying it alot)
and then training, couldn't wait to start astro.
but....pretty stressed out. only about 1/3 of the pple who signed up TURNED up...i had promised mr loh that all those who signed up WILL come. -_- but expected sigh. and some of them didn't have their consent forms (signed)but i gave them extra copies on the spot and .. they handed up in time. -_-. the games were pathetic all because their responses were pathetic. really wanted to whack them, and i wasn't the only one feeling that way. *breathe*.
the sky was pretty good towards 1, 2am...the moon, jupiter were great. yeah man that's what astro's about. but most of the j1s were somewhere in school instead of with us, and some of them i didn't see again after marking attendance. hmmmmmm. bad thing about having it in school. good thing is that we could screen movies, and there was our "base", com lab 3. but the dew was really bad, all the telescopes, radios etc were totally wet. worried about how they dealt with that=S.
around 2am there was a j1, gim hong, playing basketball, so hannah and i joined him for a while, then huileng, gary, eddie, zhiqiang, cheng lim came as well, so we played 4 on 3. cheng lim's so funny. he's such an ass and so rude, but he's...funny. he was everywhere on the court (it was totally dark too). he shoots from somewhere outside and then he runs in and gets the rebound before everyone else. -_-. hyperactive kid. both physically and mentally. but it was really funny, playing basketball in the dark. suddenly we were all like little 3 year olds whose psycho-motor skills still had some way to go. eventually they all left, except gim hong zhiqiang and me, and we played the abc game again. i got a 3 pointer (the first in my life? with a basketball)! and all 3 of us made the whole way=) that was pretty much the funnest part of overnight.
so after that zhiqiang and i went back to com lab and we didn't know what else to do, so we decided to screen some other movie. (here goes the really impressive part) but, all the shows had disappeared except for "the core" which had to be shown on dvd...but we had brought the cable out to the track. so .......zhiqiang said "ok i'll go get the cable". !!!!! it was 3+am and i was half asleep and i couldn't believe there was actually a person to offer to go all the way up to the track to get the cable. =S. by the time he came back i had fallen asleep. but i woke up to watch the show for...10 mins. -_- i felt pretty bad since i was one of the .. major advocators of watching another show at 3am. and whenever the sound got too loud or soft zhiqiang got up and went over to adjust the volume. !!!!. =S. well. if anyone claims that all men are bad i'll have a counter-example for her (most likely).
sat
then i got up at 6.40am...it was funny, trying to step between all the bodies on the floor, and went off to chung cheng. saw zhiqiang, hannah and yuying on the track, where the telescopes were, chatting. it was really nice, the track all misty and the sun coming up. wish i had had enough energy not to sleep those few hours and really enjoy the school.
actually fell asleep during the second girls' doubles game=S. but it was really...boring. i can almost say literally, that the girls could've beaten nyjc "hands down". =S.
but the guys are starting to meet resistance, with their 2nd game against meridian jc. junxiang had some trouble during his 2nd n 3rd sets and i think, went on to 5 sets. i heard benedict had the same problem. but eventually they still beat meridian 5:0. but...now the pressure starts setting in. after almost everyone had finished their games nj and aj (last i believe) singles were still playing. was a very heated match, was of pretty good standard, very exciting=). best luck to the guys.
oh, the guys' first game was at 8.30am, against jurong jc. guess who was jj's last single! swee feng!! he was pretty good! and i really liked the way he carried himself, not too unconfident, but not shouting and too much testosterone etc, like some of the guys who were pretty disgusting. but, unfortunately he got beaten by his (unknown to either) pschool junior jianhong. but i still thought he did a pretty good job=) he's really lanky now but rather expected, he was always so skinny in pschool, and still as quiet. i was quite ambivalent; i knew jianhong was gonna win for sure, but for all the, whatever little, the brilliance swee feng showed during the game i was so much more "yeah!"-ish. there was once i actually went "yeah!....oops" when swee feng la-ed well and jianhong missed the ball. =) wonder how it feels for sihuan, seeing her nanyang teammates play against her current team mates. so much easier when your team's playing some stranger. then there won't be that area of grey.
and then i left early with mrs cheong, both of us getting a lift from mr n mrs cheang (harhar mr cheang slimmed down again i think. so funny. singapore's really small.). glad i had SOME stuff to say to mrs cheong all the way from kallang to dover. whew. but she's pretty nice, more importantly still very young at heart, and still somewhat at "my generation". i can't believe she's married...she still recalls so much about her days in rj, about badminton etc. and then blink, she's married (and gonna have kids soon.) nooooooo. that's what'll become of all of us!!
slept through saturday-_-.
