March 2011


3 days ago, March have came to a close. But the very last week of March had been so awesome. There was the kite-flying which was so fun and enabled us to hang out as the whole clique afterwards and the CASS camp, which was amazing. But school is coming soon. I can't believe that the holiday is coming to an end. In just 2 weeks, i'll have to start school. But nevermind, i'm much more optimistic today than the last few days because i haven't been having enough sleep the previous days so i wasn't able to be energetic enough to be happy (at times you need energy to be happy, that's why it's so troublesome to try to be, which is also why people choose to be sad sometimes). Anyway, i'm looking forward to next week, which is my last week of slacking during the holiday, doing nothing much but waste time in a fun way, and i'm also looking forward to the week after that, which was the Mehmeh chalet plus orientation week for the poly. Then the week after that is the start of school. Getting kind of excited, yet sad. I know i'll surely miss the mehmehs.

Personal growth
I think i've grown this month. The first thing is that i've found a new sense of individuality. I randomly came up with and agreed with this logic, "I'm creating my own route in life and i am living my life the way i want. Nobody will be able to mimic me." I recovered an interest that i've lost for some time: Writing. And i started writing again :D Speaking of writing, i'm really glad to find some people, not just one but more than one, who love writing! Found them in the CASS camp :D All from Creative Writing for Television and New Media one. Back to topic; I've also learnt to be slightly more hyper, thanks to the camp. I think now i'm slightly more assertive. However, it is really just slightly.

Oh yeah, by the way i want to learn the piano. And then maybe after that i may want to learn song composing.

Music and animes
A great song called "Friday" emerged. Yes, i called it a great song. It's catchy and nice, but it still has much flaws than strengths. The lyrics is weird and consist of too many repetitions, the one singing it isn't cut-out to sing this song (not because she is lousy, but because it is just not suitable). the MV is super weird and the beat is too fast. If this song is slowed down, if the MV is changed to make more sense, if Rebecca Black sings more slowly and try to be less monotoneous in the song, and if the lyrics is edited to sound less childish and more meaningful, it will be a great song. If i'm to use a glass of water to represent this song, i'll say that this glass is about 1/5 filled with water and 4/5 filled with sand. Not insulting.

And then i went to watch Naruto Shippuden, then got bored of it because Naruto goes like, "Sasuke, sasuke!" in every episode, and even though he's the protagonist, he had never fought even one real battle for the first 200 episodes. In part one he keeps harping on "Hokage, hokage!" Now in part two, he keeps harping on "Sasuke, sasuke!" And sasuke is going to be irritating too, i heard that he's going to keep harping on "Revenge, revenge!" The sakura who used to go like, "Sasuke-kuun!!" no longer does it and she becomes more normal than her 2 ex-groupmates. As a result, i paused watching it for quite a long time and went to catch up with bleach, one piece and fairy tail. One piece is amazing to the max. I noticed that both in Bleach and in One piece, the "climax" of the series just ended. On another note, i began to like Naruto's soundtracks more than the anime itself. Don't let this discourage you from watching the anime. The first part was great. As in, "Naruto" was great. It is only at "Naruto Shippuden" (part 2) where things start getting dull. To be honest, i think it is partly due to its dull and dark soundtracks.

Birthday celebrations
Celebrated 2 mehmeh's birthday on March: Joshua and Ruwen. We celebrated joshua's by baking him a cheesecake and buying him SNSD stuff, and then going to watch movies after that. And we celebrated Ruwen's birthday by bringing her an Awfully Chocolate cake at where she works to surprise her, and then giving her the camera she said she wanted. Glad they liked the celebrations and presents :)

Kite Flying

Went to fly kite with all the mehmehs except ruwen at marina barrage. It was fun. Could get my kite to fly up majorly due to guang yi's experience. And then i tried to get another kite to fly up with less experienced friends. And we failed. Then guangyi came to helped, but we still failed. o_o He said that the kite is too difficult to fly, so we changed kite, but then i got tired and wanted to rest. Then it began to rain. Oh by the way, the kite that guangyi and i flew up was the most successful and it flew into the sky :D We went to visit ruwen after that and chatted for quite awhile. After that, we went home.

CASS Freshmen Orientation Camp

By now, i'm feeling so tired of typing and typing. But then, there's so much to talk about for this camp.

After more than one hour of break, now i'm to continue typing this post. Although it makes no difference in your point of view.

Day 1:
Tense atmosphere, difficulty in making friends, trying to socialise. These were what happened at first. In fact, i felt super sian when i was the last one to make a friend. But i did eventually, which is great. Anyway, came up with group name, group cheer and then received group accessories and created out group flag! The first day was really kind of sad, that was until like during the evening when i started making friends :D So anyway, our group name was Masquerade. So our cheer went like, "cheer for the boys, cheer for the girls, and when we lose, cheer for the world" and then we changed it on the second day to "and we go BOOM masquerade, and we go BOOM masquerade, and we go HOO HA HOO HA HOO HA HOO HA BOOM masquerade!" During each hoo ha we covered and then uncover immediately our faces with our hands. Love my group. Group flag is like this:


So, the first day was kind of ordinary ice-breaking games, which worked well. Had wet games, and then after that, at night, we had this activity called the mass dance, where we were taught a dance using the song Peacock. "I wanna see your peacock, cock, cock, cock~" Fun :) Then we had night walk. Super fun :) One of my favourite part of the camp. Walking down a dark path with only lightsticks guiding us, curtains hanging on the ceiling, fake ghosts and stuff. Managed to socialise with my nightwalk partner, Haidi (sorry if i spelt wrongly), a bit. The nightwalk was scary but fun. The scariest part was when we were walking down the stairs and this fake ghost starting following us while asking us a question repeatedly. Then when we ignored her too many times, she screamed the question at us. The night walk was long, which was great. I love the check points too, because they gave us super nice biscuits (eg. fake oreos which tasted better than oreos). So after the nightwalk, we waited for the rest of the people (100 + people including another school campers whom we combined with, and we went 2-by-2) to finish their nightwalk, we went to sleep, at 3am.

Day 2:
More fun ^^ Stuff like tug of war, captain's random objects (captain's ball using tomato, soap and butter) and scavenger's hunt. The night was great. Another mass dance, followed by campfire. The campfire was super nice.


Sang camp songs and had friendship dance. Performed our performances after that in some dance studio thing. My group's was a mash-up cum skit of rihanna's songs, consisting of rude boy, what's my name, only girl, disturbia, shut up and drive, unfaithful, love the way you lie, umbrella, russian roulette, hate that i love you so and take a bow. Then we had a dance party after that. After awhile, i stopped because it was already 2am like that and i felt super tired i thought i could fall asleep standing. So, i went to sit in a corner with others who were also tired of dancing, and then i fell asleep. When we were dismissed from the dance studio, we went to our super comfortable bunk to sleep.

Day 3:
7am, waking up in the morning, still too early, go back to sleep~ Woke up at 7.45, washed up and then went to have breakfast, then telematch. this was one of the funnest part of the camp. Had a telematch with the other groups in which we are supposed to run across the field and stop at several spots to do some stuff, including spinning ten rounds and doing chicken dance, smacking our faces into a tray of flour to find a mentos, eating a biscuit with bitter gourd and wasabi, finding a ping pong ball from a pot of dirty water with random stuff, drinking a cup of water and sliding pass this blue mat thing. And throughout, they kept pushing our faces into the flour, pouring water on us, etc. Then we went to clean up and had our final mass dance. "I wanna see your peacock~" And then got debriefed. Talked about the camp with my group and then got dismissed. Received this duck toy thing and some food items as presents :D

That's basically March :)
