Today was teachers day celebration. In school, the celebration was pretty unengaging. Only that... The staff awards part was pretty amusing. Every teacher had to say a few words after receiving his/her award. It started when Mr Ku said that he wanted to thank his parents. The next teacher came on and said he wanted to thank Mr Ku's parents. The following teacher said she wanted to thank his grandparents.

Anyway, we were released quite early... about 10am. But later, we went canteen for the cake-cutting. Boring... Then, Wendelyn, Jun Jet, Jerome and I went back. Jerome was going Circle Line also. So, yeah... On the way, Jerome and I kept teasing JJ and Wendy till we got bored.

Fast forward... We reached AMK. First, went to buy the cake. But I looked at the directory, cannot see any Bengawan Solo. Asked people and found out that it was in some hypermarket there. Then later... At the library. Ram called, I picked up, hoping that the staff wouldn't see but I got caught. TYM was talking much louder, they didn't notice. Then, we went Mac's and had some good stuff. We really enjoyed ourselves. Eg, kicking fries into the pond, doing stupid dares, disturbing people. Oh yeah, the stupid dares. I had to pretend to be a car and go to the drive-thru. Damn epic...

Hong Wei captured a lot of pics like me doing the dare and sitting beside Ronald McDonald, in a similar pose. Later, we went AMK Hub. And I uh... skidded off the drain, straight on the hard, rough pavement. Earned 3 wounds + 1 in the morning = 4. The wound in the morning was pathetic. I got it by scratching. Anyway, we watched "The Proposal". It's a good movie, extremely suitable for young kids aged 12 and below. Yeah, the day's over! Sadly... Happy Birthday Hong Wei! Ram and I got him a gift. Last-minute one...

So sorry, everybody! I haven't posted for a very long time. I've been rather busy. And even now, I should be busy. I came back from India on Sunday. First we went to Bangalore and on 19/8, we flew to Trivandrum. We surprised everybody in Trivandrum. First, my paternal grandparents and next, my maternal grandparents. Everyone was like stunned. I got this aunt who lives in Singapore but is in India now. Her mother lives next door to my paternal grandparents place. Then, we were supposed to surprise them too but they saw us before that and were wondering whether we were really "us"! My aunt was debating with her mother that we were not "us" but her mother was convinced that we were really "us". Damn funny...

Then we went to lots of miscellaneous places like an accident site where a Toyota Altis was literally racing and crashed into a wall at about 140-160km/h, a dental clinic for my mum, shoe shops, etc. Trivandrum airport is like just a 5 min walk from my paternal grandparents place. We didn't need a car but we did use a car.

Let's talk about flights and airports. We didn't want to but we had to take a Tiger Airways flight from S'pore to B'lore. Tiger Airways is the worst airline in the world. Even a bus is better! So little space for your legs and their in-flight food was scam. $3 for water and $8 for nasi lemak. B'lore to Trivandrum via Chennai, we took Air India. Pretty average, I suppose... But the problem was at the airport. We checked-in at 5.30 while the flight was at 6. The security scanned and found a bottle of juice inside. We had to throw away. When security was finally over, it was 5.50. And on the aerobridge, got another security. They really open everyone's bags.

Then, last day... Trivandrum to Chennai via B'lore. It's pretty weird. Trivandrum to B'lore to Chennai to Trivandrum. Flight at 4.20, we reach at 2.30 when we only need to reach at 3.30. Landed in Chennai at 6.55. Next flight at 11. So fished lor! Camp in the airport for 3 hours? Flight to Singapore was Air India Express which was supposedly a budget airline. If Tiger Airways was a budget airline, AIE should be a normal full-cost airline. Tiger Airways charge you for food, water and got no entertainment. AIE got all! Only thing was that entertainment was a small tv on top for a few people.


That's all about India. Now, school... Yesterday, everything was okay, nothing interesting. Today, we had NAPFA retest. I got GOLD! OMG.... I'm being crazy. Then, Chem got experiment on acids. French, we got back paper. I got 88. Krystin got same as me. DAMN! What was even worse was that... Yinan got 92. WALAU eh! At first, my marks was written as 77 cos the teacher didn't count properly. Then, 87. After that, got some mistake in marking and I got 88.

This week was pretty interesting. I got 10min 45 sec for 2.4km. I got GOLD for SMO! YES!!! I'm so pro... jkjk! I was really damn lucky. If I got one point less for Round 1, I would have gotten a silver cos need 8 points to go round 2 and I got 8. Round 2, I got 10 so 10 + 8 = 18. Then, English yesterday was really stupid. Ms Chan went around, checking whether people had done their work. I didn't do. She went to the other side of the class first. Then, I quickly wrote some crappy thing in 30 seconds. She came to our side and saw something written and I was saved.

Oh yeah... Yesterday morning, we accomplished a mission. I really felt so great after that. Shao Wei cried! People around who saw that kept saying we were being evil. Then, Amelia and Eunice even asked me not to use physical means to bully him. WTH lar... They don't even know what Shao Wei is like. He threw a chess piece at my face. Later, during Maths, we gave Mrs Chui some reasons to get angry with him. Last time, he tore up some paper and almost immediately, punched Jerome.

Anyway, I got full marks for Maths ICA. Today was National Day celebrations. In the morning, I played basketball for a while. Me, Jerome and Gerald (later Hui Min and Eunice too) totally thrashed the rest. In the hall, as usual, we were bad boys during assembly. Then, 102 was one of the winners of the montage thing. We got some stuff including Cadbury chocs. The potluck later... Mrs Chui bought us Mac's as promised. Joshua brought a lot of stuff too. Then, the montage food prize as well. While we were eating, Shao Wei had a nice counselling session with Mrs Chui. He didn't deserve anything lor! While we were all putting our heart and soul into the montage, he was going around commenting on everything.

After eating a bit, Jerome, Gerald, Chang and I took turns to get carried to 104, 101 and even the road leading to the carpark. And must wear a cute Donald Duck's hat too. LOL, that was damn funny. Ok, post is over...
