Recap
Quite a lot of stuff happened recently, things that i wanna remember, so here i go...

so we went back to zhss after first lesson which was civics. ponned an fmaths lecture cos didn't want to make others wait...
didn't do anything in particular there. at first stood outside hall but did nothing. later went down canteen accompanying terence who wanted to eat. later class took a picture with huang lao shi (how i miss his chinese lessons now...). also went to get the testtubes we paid for. i still haven't broke them surprisingly haha.
next big group from class stood outside staff room around ms chan but not much talk going around. in the end most of us just standing around talking with our own group...
later got chased out of sch cos gates closing. no plan on what to do. no suggestions, so slowly group by group broke off to go places on their own
in the end bout 10+ of us left went mac. ate after much standing around (i think almost 30min of idling)... quite a number of pple got frustrated/irritated (i think i was one of the 3 or 4 not to feel like tt) kinda sad thinking bout it. finally we get to get together and this happens...
but then i got quite irked when a particular person started lamenting bout the lack of class spirit and compared it with his jc class. maybe it's cos i take quite a long time to warm up to other people so time is often the key to friendships for me, but i can't understand someone valuing something tt's just a month old or so against bond of two years. granted he was disappointed with the day, but... well, at least the episode's over now and i'm still hopeful for future class outings and such... may whatever class spirit we might have still be present and we can remain in contact.

went back malaysia as usual. used to detest these trips as a young kid but now starting to enjoy it more. sad thing's how there's the age gap between my cousins and me so i never can really talk much with them, but i digress.
i really should have brought camera there. was thinking bout whether to do so before the trip but decided against it at the last minute. big mistake. so many pictures i wanna take.
only a night there, so not much happened, but it was a very relaxing experience. at night went out for dinner and we took my uncle's jeep to the restaurant. always liked jeep/pick-up rides feeling the wind... but this time it was even more special. i looked up, and my, was it a starry night... never really gazed at stars before and was it magical the feeling. couple tt with the fireworks around (though fireworks are banned there, there's this rich family who would just willingly pay the fine every year during cny)...
back at grandma's house, there's this place outside... sort of a porch, and i'd sit on the wall against a pillar (argh, so hard trying to describe it... the camera would have come in so useful here) and again just look at the stars. if i was more poetic, i would have written a poem, more artistic draw sth and more musical would have written a song. too bad i'm not any of them.
and also figured out the reason for my slight deafness, it's not so much of the cymbals while i played the drums in co, it's more of those firecrackers or whatever you call them (those things u'd light up, throw and it'd explode in some nice colors...) didn't play it this time round, but looking at the younger kids playing it brought back some fond memories...
surprisingly i wasn't too into gambling this time round. last time it'd be tong xiao mahjong when i went back but not this time. just played some simpler games with the younger cousins with small stakes this time round.
while i didn't bring my camera, my was i glad i brought my phone. was thinking of leaving it at home but dad wanted me to bring it cos his hicard's running out of money and wanted a backup. whole day just brightened up so much after receiving an sms while gazing at the stars that night. thank you ^^

|Friday - Ponning|

ponned quite a fair share of lessons already but friday was something even more. so we went back sch after the holidays, and my first period was swimming. after that, when i was back in the canteen ash came over and suggested ponning. cos i had plans to skip tuesday (which happenes to be the longest day, compared to friday, the shortest day), i was kinda against it, but well, they convinced me in the end
so the five zhss guys there, ash, lymon, aaron, lik and me ponned sch after that first lesson (me and lymon still feel so -_-" for going sch to attend just swimming). even though we ponned, didn't have a plan in mind. ash wanted to play pool, aaron and lik lan and me and lymon bowling.
so we debated on what to do, and it got a li'l frustrating in the end. thankfully managed to prevent things from spilling over. in the end we just decided to catch the movie tt's showing then, which happened to be seoul raiders even though none of us knew anything bout it. thankfullly it was quite a good movie. and the cinema was so empty, could put leg on the seats in front
after that aaron went home and the rest of us went city hall and suntec shopping. saw lots of funny cards and also the pooky ty bear which was just so cute! too bad didn't have enough money for it. well, ash wanted it anyway too and it was the last one. in the end he decided to see if it'd be there the next day to decide whether to get it but while we walked out of the shop a lady got it. so sad...
in the middle of shopping we got anderson's ice cream craze and went to get it. while sitting down, we played quite a silly game, guessing a movie title by asking 'yes/no' qns. sounds dumb but quite fun in the end haha. but showed how little movies i watch.
QUOTE OF THE DAY: If i can change the alphabet, i'd put u and i together ^^
(from one of the cards... sweet...)
