`+._ Finally Updated_.+`

Phew, it has been a really tiring term 2 for me, with cheerleading, house com function, OAC and other stuff, my school work has suffered some negligence, studied hard for my tests though, hope that i did relatively well.

Well, Titans is over. I guess we all bonded really well together during Titans for some reason. No offence, but I was doing my best not for mainly Delta, but for OAC, to do OAC proud. Of course, I was also hoping to bring glory to Delta. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Hm.. My 5 individual events record is: 5km run 24th out of 32 ppl ; incline pull-ups zero (how pathetic) ; squat thrusts 50 in 3mins (yay, i beat my previous best) ; sit-ups 97 in 3 mins ; shuttle run... hm... don't remember, all i know that it wasn't good =( . Oh well... if I can take part next year, I shall train, hopefully to get into top 10. After that, we had a OAC get together session outside the dance studio, with all the pass batch OAC seniors, they were all behind us, wanting to listen to our opinions, aha, that was rather intimidating. All of us got so emotional. It's then that I'm so so so sure that as long as the 05/06 batch is around, I'm not quitting OAC. They are my extended family! =D hm... whether I'll stay in OAC for all 4 years... hard to say. I shall not remain in it if I can't get on well with the next batches.

I remember I cried because I couldn't join my J1 seniors for June Camp. *sob* I was... I don't really know how to put it in words, but, it was kind of like, I was afraid that if I didn't go for camp with them, they would move on experiencing something so tough, and I won't fit in anymore, then, there will be no reason to stay in OAC. And I do cherish all my seniors alot =) Well, felt bad also for enjoying myself while my teammates were going to suffer, and I spent the first few days in UK during the Humanities Trip thinking about what they were doing at that time. I'm just glad they are all ok ^^

Hm.. about the UK trip, it was really great, the sites we went to and everything we saw was just so exhilarating and refreshing. Maybe one day when I have time, I'll put together a UK trip journal with all my pictures in it =D Aha, IF I have time. Geez, I wonder when that will be. Just in a summary, we went to so many places like Salisbury, Dorset, Stonehenge, Wells, Oxford, Bath, Shrewsbury and London. I watched 6 shows in London, 2 with the school and 4 with my dad. They were simply AMAZING. I watched 'The Lion King' musical and Shakespeare's Play 'As you Like It' with my school. And the musicals 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang', 'The Phantom of the Opera', 'Mary Poppins' and the ballet 'Romeo and Juliet' with my dad. I loved Chitty best! I bought the soundtrack too! Haha, hey, what can I say, I still have a kid in me, don't we all? =D

The sad thing was that I missed Miss Lim's wedding. Congratulations Miss Lim! =D

Two days after I got back to Singapore, I went to Bintan with my Unick friends Zoe, Yuan Li, John, En Chou and Jun Ji. My mum and John's mum chaperoned us. Thank You! =D Well, I must say, I had high expectations for the trip and couldn't sleep till 4am in the morning. Sadly, I was rather disappointed at first, but things were looking up. The weather was wet on the first day, thankfully clearing up in the late afternoon. We couldn't check in until about 12pm+ Bintan time, and we reached at about 10am+. So we walked around. Once we got a room, 1129, we spend some time in there before heading to check out the Gym. Jun Ji, En Chou and I worked out for more than half an hour. I ran for 13 mins on the treadmill increasing the speed, then cycled 10 mins, 100 push-ups and 100 sit-ups. The workout really felt good. We went back to the room and played cards if I didn't remember wrongly. Just being there with my friends made me feel lucky and happy. It has been ages since I've seen them and I really missed them so so much! I really loved their company. Haha, short, fat, ugly, sian dan, xiong dan bao and hm.. we didn't settle on a name for yuan! =P We went swimming and played um... is it called water polo? It's like a game in the pool 1.5m deep with two soccer like nets at the end. It was so so fun! haha, it was tiring though. At night, we played cards and watched TV.

The next day, we had breakfast, loitered in Yuan and Oe's room in the morning before taking a very bumpy 45min drive to a small 'town'. I felt so sick, motion sickness. Well, there's nothing like that town in Singapore. There was nothing there to see, so we asked the driver to bring us somewhere else. Thank Goodness the other place was much nicer. I bought a ring! =D I love it! ^^ Haha~ We went back after bringing back some food from the restaurant. Had little to eat, and waited for En to finish his show before we went to the Gym. No one else wanted to though =( We first ran on the Treadmill for more the 20 mins, then I did 50 push-ups without resting, of course having breaks in push-up position, haha, not that good to do 50 at one go. I wish.. When I got up, My arms were strained. Geez, I'm so out of shape! I know I put on weight in UK with all my food intake! The amount I ate there was rather large... Did those umm pull bar down with arm things? 10 of them for fun. We cycled for about 5 mins, and wanted to do jogging, but... the gym was closing. Oh well, went back, took a shower, had maggie and played cards again! =P I learnt how to play Taiti. =D We all planned to sleep in the same room that night since it was the last night. Oe and yuan fell asleep first. The rest of us couldn't sleep. So talked a little before John suggested going for a walk. Haha, midnight stroll. We walked to the Lobby. I was practically half blind as I forgot to bring my glasses (geez, I keep forgetting stuff these days, not a good sign) and already took off my contacts. It was okay though, haha~ There was really nothing to do, so we played checkers using the Giant Chess Set. After that we slid down the banister (almost lost my balance, it was fun!) Got back to the room, finally could sleep after a long while, sadly, only after John left to go back to his room as it was too squeezy to possibly fall asleep. I must say it was a fun time.

So... Today morning, the weather was GREAT! We couldn't wake early, except Yuan and Oe, who awoke at 7am! Haha, they went for a stroll at the beach, came back, and we were still sleeping. They went for breakfast, waited for more than an hour before we joined them. Thanks for waiting! Heh~ Lazed around in the room before we started going nuts, stealing pillows from each other, jumping on the bed, grabbing blankets and throwing over one another and piling on top of one another. Ha! We kinda turned the room into a pig-sty. Then we left for a swim. Had drinks at the pool bar, but sadly, didn't have enough time for a tan. Oh well =) Went back and washed up before having to leave Bintan... Let's just say, out of this whole trip, I basically loved being with my friends so much~ Wish we could get together more often, sadly, I doubt it's possible. The boat ride was making me giddy again too~ We played Taiti again on the boat, the ride was so long ans the boat went so slowly, oh well.. we couldn't do anything about it! Love you guys Unick! Anyway, it's late now, so... goodnight! =D
