today i will be boring and blog about the events of today.
you know.like those people who blog about every single detail of their lives.likewise, i'll do so today.because i am bored, sleepy, and feel like being boring to make you feel the same.HAHA.i am so selfish.
today i woke up at a miserly 6am.
yes 6am on a SATURDAY morning on which,by right,i should have at least 4 more hours of much-needed sleep.
then i had a bazhang to eat.
but it tasted like something was wrong so i only ate half.
then.made my way down to ramakhrisnan boy's home at bartley road.
passing rj on the way and i thought to myself.
man!i can't wait to go there.not because there're bOyzXz but because rg really sucks to the core now.i shall not elaborate.
and then.my mom nearly turned into an old folks home.
but she didn't being the mom whom i inherited my smart genes from, she spotted the name of the place and drove past.
then we reached the place,
and i joined vidya praveena priya amanda wanling to form a welcoming party(wave!the only thing missing was a military band for music) for sosuaysharonlam and joannebala.
who's father drove round the roundabout thing 3 times.
which i found quite amusing.because.usually people drive round once.
go in one way,drop the person,and go out.
her dad drove round 3 times.go figure.too much petrol or smthng.
then we waited quite long.for harumi.supposed to meet at 7 call her at 7.25 her mother/maid/whoever said hold on.
SHE WAS STILL AT HOME!HOW CAN!
anw.qian jing xiao jie miss ochi harumi arrived at 8.10.
a whole 1hr10mins late.
and so.we proceded to have ice breakers.
i'm sorry i can't tell you most of the names.
because well.i can't rmb them.
i'm glad i only got called on once for whacko because i could only rmb their names when they sat in arrangement.
once they moved i was all HUH.what's your name?!
anw.there's this real small cute dude simon.
he's small.near botak.and wears a skipping rope around his waist(:
and he talks alot alot.non stop.
and there's bala.small bala i like to call him.because big bala is duh.obviously joanne.but she says her dad's called bala not her.so small bala said he's her dad.hahahahahahaha.
and he also talks alot alot.
and there's arjun who's another dude who looks very old.
but he's really really skinny and quite short.
but he's this really kind hearted boy who's uber honest(i mean who actually rolls a ball back to where he hit it out and starts all over again?!i wouldn't.i'll just cheat.oh crap i'm not honest then.)
and there's.er.this really irritaing small boy i can't rmb his name.
who totally refuses to share and pisses me off greatly.
like.his water rocket was the furthest.
so duh he gets a prize(a tub of ice cream to be shared among the top 2 groups).
then we told him he had to share and he said then i dowan to eat alrdy.
WAHLAO.smthng wrong okay.
anw.water rocket making was.quite fun.
due to my pro camera skills i have 2 shots of the rocket flying which suaysharonsounpro couldn't get.
okay i can't take this anymore.
i totally abhore detail by detail entries of my boring life.
so i'll just tell you a few events that struck me today.
#1. this guy.also one of the 2 that nobody likes.claimed that this other boy stole his money.amount of money taken.$1.if someone took a dollar from my wallet.i think i wouldn't have noticed.it really made me think about the value of money.we have such different lifestyles and backgrounds. to us a dollar isn't really alot. well unless i desperately needed to buy gelare and had only 3 dollars or smthng. but to them just to save up this dollar is alot of effort. the loss of this dollar nearly made the poor boy cry.
though the accused claimed this boy was abit "stupid stupid" in the head. "15 but his brain haven't grown up yet". a dollar is alot of money.
#2. these guys are just one big family. the older guys take care/charge of the younger kids. when one of the younger ones is unhappy the older kids see to it. they bring the child away and talk to him or console him or help him or whatever. it's very paternal in a way. and there're so many younger kids who fight every 5 seconds and quarrel then cry or punch each other (one kid got knocked in the mouth and started bleeding over we thought his tooth came out!thank god it didnt). it's amazing how these older guys are able to stand it all. if my sister did that i'll probably go "why you like that one so stupid" or smthng. or just yell at her to stop fighting etc. they don't. it just amazed me.
#3. small bala made a paperclip necklace for harumi. at first i thought he was gonna strangle us with it. well it DID look scary and because he kept wanting to put it over our necks i thought he was gonna act like people in the movies and strangle us. the only reason why amanda and i didn't get the necklace was cos our necks too "thick" or so he said. haha! so harumi got it. how sweet is that(: makes your heart melt right. okay not really.
#4. the kids kept asking when we were gonna come again. i felt so appreciated. even in that short period of time. okay maybe not short it was about 8 hours that we spent there. even though i complained quite alot (not as much as suay!stupid qian jing xiao jie) about deprivation of sleep and being tired (she had "i'm so hot!" too) there was some sort of connection that i felt. i actually enjoyed myself there. hmmm or maybe my maternal instincts are developing haha.
and oh gary i know u read this.sorry yeah we really needed to know where there was any supermarts around cos we needed to buy oil and food and you know.stuff. and you were the only one i could think of that might know the area. super malu haha sorry!
i have some pictures in my phone ( my phone in hot demand okay got camera! ) taken by the boys while they were playing. but i can't find my cable so owells. sharon's camera has alot. i'm very hot in pictures which show my hot legs that are taken when i'm unaware. haw haw. i'm only saying this because i only like one picture. sharon you know which one better not do anything to it ah.
okay la in conclusion today was very meaningful. i never thought i'll feel that cip/cle had it's meaning but today proved me wrong. but. once a year is still enough. maybe next time this experience might convince me to sign up for some er. india or cambodia trip or smthng.
not bad la hor. and oh i found my way back home! i'm so proud of myself. i really had this bad bad bad feeling i'll get lost but i didn't!
okay now really really really need to go to sleep even though it's only like 8 i have sleep deprivation it's killing me and i can't take it no more and i'm talking nonsense and bullshitting and my fingers can't seem to stop typing and oh today we all had a good gossip session about NOOBS and getting out of rg quick quick while cleaning up yes i know it doesn't sound appropriate but HA it was good and fun and yes i know this is incoherent and there're no fullstops and commas or anything and.
ok i will sleep NOW.
bye bye.
