Okay another post again. Well, holidays are seriously breezing and flying past. Its already the 15th and i have not conquered much of the holiday homework yet, let alone study for block test. Oh Man!! Whats more im going off for my church camp on the 16th till the 18th i think, im so gonna miss chatting to my friends on MSN!! SMS ME OKAY?!?! Oh yea and im feeling the heat and kinda stress as im one of the group leaders for the camp. OH MAN. This is my first time and i really have no idea what im supposed to do? I don't think i even look like a group leader, so hopefully i wont be mistaken as a member there. OH MAN. Hope everything goes well and give me a confidence booster for OGL next year.

Oh yea, and my parents have just booked our whole family a trip to Bali on the 31st dec till 3rd december. Oh man, this is piling up further pressure on me and my studies. I seriously hope that i can finish my revision and all this holiday!! And i will miss all my friends once again!! OH MAN!!Can someone form a study group soon please???????

Holidays are already here and soon about to reach the halfway point. But i have yet to really start studying yet. Only did a few chapters of math revision package and 1 chapter of biology. Oh man, how am i going to pass my block tests and complete my mountainous pile of homework in time? SOMEONE MAKE ME STUDY PLEASE!! Whats more, there's a lot of events coming up which will consume much of my already precious time. But even though this takes up alot of time, i would still be willing to attend all of them and meet up with my friends or fulfill my duties and roles that i have taken up. What should i do?

Finally back from the 4days 2 nights LTC camp. Made alot of new friends from my group as well as from others, everyone from different ccas and background, especially Bryan, Yun Sheng, Asraf and Jian Fan. Totally wicked and fun time with all of them these past few days, which brought many laughters. We did practically everything together, bathing, Ps-ing, complaining, getting extra food(watermelon). Let me give you a brief summary of what we did for the whole camp:

First Day:

Went to school earlier to learn the Griffindor dance for Yule ball. At 9, proceeded to the grandstand for attendance taking and the start of the 4 days of madness. Firstly, there was briefing by headmaster on some admin matters before the cheering started. Then it was packing time. We had to pack as much stuff as possible into a big china bag and the remaining we had to carry around while playing platform 9 and 3/4s. Thankfully i had really good groupmates who allowed me to put my GIGANTIC bag inside or i would not have been able to carry the whole load round singapore. THANK YOU AWESOME GROUPMATES!! SORRY FOR HAVING TO LET U GUYS HAVE EXTRA WEIGHT IN UR BAGS!!

So basically it was like amazing race and we had to travel around Singapore to find specific locations with clues and completing certain activities there. First up was botanic gardens. We used the school computer to check out the clue and bus route before heading off. However upon arrival at the location. We found out that we had dropped off at the wrong stop and had to walk all the way across the whole garden!! That was the first setback. However, we did not bother complaining much and just tried to get to the place in the fastest time possible. After completion of our tsk, we headed off to the next location which was NUS. However little did we know that NUS had two campus' so when we reached the one close to the botanic gardens we couldnt find the place and had to ask the ppl there. So when we found out it was at Kent ridge, we started to get demoralised. However that did not stop us from getting there. Setback 2. However, after lunch the day went pretty smoothly with exception of waiting for bus 11 which took a super long time to come. After that went to the campsite with the charter bus. It looked really awesome when we touchdowned. The bunks were super cute. There we had another briefing and then dinner before learning the waltz. IT WAS FUN!! We had to get the feel of it at first before we learnt the more complicated moves such as crossing over, hesitation step and THE JUMP. HAHA. The jump was especially funny. After that was bathing and sleep time!

Second Day:

High elements day!! Did rock climbing, vertical challenge, abseiling, flying fox and more! I think i was the first person to complete the rock climbing partly cos i was the first person to try it. Yep and with the help of my teammates cheering and encouragements and also REST!! It felt really awesome to be at the top but the negative thing was hand cramps afterwards and till now. I cant even clasp my fingers properly now. Oh man. Continued after lunch before dinner and facilitation time. However, during kayak workshop, we did a damn large amount of pushups. I couldnt even do it properly and was not even able to feel my arms halfway through the pushups but still managed to complete it. WEAK. After the workshop, we did some complaining time with the guys before bathing and sleeping.

Third Day:

Water elements day! Wooo started off with raft making. Discussed on what our raft should look like first before starting work. In the end, we decided on a dragon boat style kayak. However there was yet another setback, only 2 ppl knew how to tie the ropes, me and asraf. However, being awesome teammates, our groupmates learnt real fast and everyone was tying the raft together in no time. AWESOME!! In the end, altho the knots were messy and raft looked flimsy and unstable, it proved to be the best super raft ever!! This shows that looks can be decieving. It managed to carry all 12 groupmates in it and we stayed in the water for the longest time! We even won the race with the groups rafts! TOTALLY COOL!

This was followed by lunch before our kayaking expedition started. Firstly, since it was my first time kayaking, my muscles ached real fast and had to take lots of breaks and making my partner do most of the work(also partly because of the high elements and pushups). But as i got used to it, it proved to be very enjoyable. But the same prefect just had to make things difficult to some people by taking away some off their paddles. But in the end we all managed to pull through with constant encouragements by everyone. HOORAY!!

Then there was the YULE BALL!! Our performance was very fun!! Although we din win anything, but at least we all gave in our very best into the performances and cheers!! This was followed by waltz dancing and many mass dance songs! GREATEST NIGHT OF CAMP EVER!

Last day:

Basically we took photos and spring cleaning of the entire area. Before heading back to school. Did gym when we got back while waiting for Asraf's exco meeting to end before us weasley guys plus far red head to macs for lunch.

Yep so that was the end of the camp. I learnt an extreme amount of things at camp including being more confident in my abilities as well as making new friends! Cant wait for more camping activities!

But why am i feeling this way?

Holidays are coming but i do not seem to feel the holiday mood like always. Maybe its because i've been promoted but do not feel that im ready for J2s just yet, or that I just do not want the year to end cause i wouldn't be able to see much of my friends in the holidays, or after Mr Neo's speech today, holidays seem more like a worse time then school days with all the assignments that have to be done. Oh man, SNAP SNAP SNAP, GET THESE NEGATIVE THOUGHTS OUT!!! Furthermore, i think im gonna be very busy this holidays even. What with having two soccer matches that have been postponed from not know when. One this friday 27th Nov and the other somewhere in mid Dec. Although this is so going to take up alot of my time, but since these matches were long overdue, and me being the captain, i would have to go on with it. Also, there is LTC from 28th nov to 1 dec. I know it is gonna be a BLAST. But i just hope that i would still have alot of fun from it and learning when my mine is full of stress for the upcoming block tests. From 1 dec onwards to maybe 16th dec i should be quite free but like all holidays, there would definitely be many other activities that have yet to be organised. From 16th to 19th dec I would be having youth church camp! This is a must for me as i have not been spending much time in church and with my church mates this past few months. So yea... Oh man OGLs meeting as well as open house is coming up to! Oh where oh where can i find the time to study! Discipline is definitely needed and hopefully i will be able to learn it this holiday! At least i've a new years resolution this year...

Well anyway went to Zuo Yi's house today with Lance for some XBox action.WOOOOOO.Played tons of different games such as TopSpin, Pure, Lego Batman, Halo, Dead or Alive,Fifa07 and many more. Average in all those games, but i know i kept killing "Chu Ming" in Halo, While ZuoYi kept winning in DOA when its her first time playing. One word: AWESOME. Her legs are so powerful, defeating us all with ease. After that, played Lego Batman for quite a while before watching Kung Fu Dunk with Zuo Yi and her brothers after Lance left. Well all in all it was an exciting, hilarious, enjoyable and absoluty electric day for me. Thanks YIIIII for the Pizza,Drinks,XBox, time, kind hospitality and electricity today. Totally enjoyed myself. And i know Lance did too!!=) Hope we can still find time to gather together and play again next year but with more friends and in years to come too!=)

Oh yea and there just might might be a chance that we will be having a match on 27th Nov against the sec 4s and another against SJI team in Mid Dec. hopefully this time we can pull through and play an actual match.Its been such a long time and im starting to miss the adrenaline rush.SO do pray for us!! THANKS:) and good night!

In sports, I've always been focusing on my greatest attributes. I either always hide them if i dont know whats wrong by putting greater effort in what im good at or . But I ALWAYs give my all in trying to improve myself everytime! Although the progress is mostly slow and my efforts usually are not seen, BUT i always try. But after those words came out, surprisingly i wasnt angry but very confused. Although i know you've told me many times before, but many different coaches have told me to do things differently. So every session when u tell me what i should improve on, i always try to change but my old habits usually come back as im either more used to them i find more success in using them. I know i shouldn't be criticising after what you've helped me achieve, improving my leg movement as well as my attacking mentality. But i feel that i would still like to play with more freedom and not like a robot, who follows every order of what is expected in every situation. Also, although allowing me to serve alone in a corner while the others continued playing matches had helped improve me, but deep down i was seriously hurt and my pride was crushed,totally. I know u are a good, like what many have told me, but, i dunno, maybe its just me, like everything else.

Anyway, i dunno why i posted this, maybe its cause i din want anyone to be affected by me, so after this post, i shall return back to my old ways and be happy!! Dun be sad and cheer up especially my bestest friend!! sorry for the emoness!!

9:13 PM

Got back results slip today. Was seriously shocked to the max at first but having mixed feelings after that. First of all, i am surprised and glad that i managed to promote to the next level. Really thankful to all my friends especially haha duo, YY4 and ESSSSSSSSSSTHER, for all ur encouragments and believing in me all the time! However,i feel kind of guilty and sad cause there are really many schoolmates and friends out there who are more hardworking and smarter then me but yet, not promote. SNAP. Oh man. People i shall not name. Well, sad too because many of my classmates i will not be seeing in the same class next year.Im sorry that i might have taken one of ur places cos i know ur deserve it more than me definitely!SNAP. oh man. But i'll always say hi to u guys when i see ur okay!! Remember not to forget me too all right!! YOU GUYS WILL ALWAYS BE PART OF 0903!! ONCE AN 0903ian, always an 0903ian!! WOOOOOOOO!!
Well, after all this, i just started to think about what i would be doing next. With this results, i am definitely not ready for Alvls. Which is even worse.SNAP. OK enough of this negative talk.

Anyway YIIIIIIII gave me a book today!! Awesome To the max man!! XIE XIE NI!!=) It contained a book, a handwritten card and a wristband all tied up like a present. VERY HAPPY NOW!! I shall read it when i have time though i doubt i will be as brilliant.SNAP.

Ok went to east coast park to cycle after school despite the small drizzle. Although my shirt became really dirty after that, it was still fun but tiring. Also, we managed to enter NSRCC for a short bath before cycling back and returning the bike. After that,went to changi airport to eat popeyes for dinner before heading home. reached home at like 11 plus. Fun, sad, yuan yang day today. Hope everyone would be in cheered up mood tomorrow! SMILE PPL! AND GET WELL SOON BELOVED FRIEND!!=)
