& I'm back to blogging about school! (:

Yesterday was just a whole lot of briefings here & there, the afternoon was spent listening to things regarding the two upcoming camps & IS modules. Chose dancesport with Jings (:


FMS-DPA is so united, we even sit in a circle to eat lunch -__-

then we toured the place abit, visited the gym. apparently serene went abit mad in the toilet :b

ahaha, cute.

The day felt exceptionally short when we ended at 4pm as compared to the first day. The buses to/fro NP is always so packed though T__T

Juu & Serene before CATS

Orienation is officially over and we've started lessons. CATS was pretty okay, it was somewhat expected. First presentation of ideas and i screwed up already. I think this incident will prolly haunt me forever or smth -__- i'm so not gna mix up my Dali/Van Gogh facts anymore T____T

We had a 3 hour break after CATS to have lunch before Sports&Wellness. Wasted a whole lot of time walking from place to place in sucha big group (almost everyone from FMS-DPA -.-) but ended up eating lunch at Canteen 1, hurr.


my okay-lah omelette fried rice.

Roamed the library abit after lunch, apparently Huda wanted to check out the music or smth!?

Jings & Serene pretending to enjoy watching the tele (Discovery, haha)

Lethargic us got up to roam the place soon after cause we just couldn't settle down. Spotted the BusinessBoys (HA!) so we hung around. Jing, Serene & I were making as much noise as the BBs but when the librarian came along, we just had the same instinct to point at them & so they got a warning HAHAHAHAHA.


BusinessBoys


Serene with her "librarian look"

S&W after that was awesomeeee! Jings &I were both in Dancesport (YAY!) and we did Cha Cha for this lesson. Our instructor is Melvin of Sharon&Melvin, The Dance Floor! It's really fun and its pretty evident that everyone enjoyed it :D

More to comeeeee, SocPsychology & Communications for the whole of tmr~

Thanks lovelies for the sms(es) that came in today regarding my first day at NP! (:

I technically hate orientation programs and stuff like that but the first day of NPP (Ngee Ann Polytechnic Preparatory Program) was pretty okay. I met Do at the busstop to walk in together. Received a shirt &other stuff upon registration, and i still think the shirt makes us all look like factory workers :b (not to mention due to my very horrible estimation, i looked like i was drowning in my shirt, as usual) Spotted & recognized Hannah from my interview last year! She's in Do's course though.


Juu & Adabelle (she has such a special name! :D)


Juu & Jocelyn

Mingled around abit before starting off with simple icebreakers like Kallang wave & such. Then we played some pirate/catwalk game & the diamond game outdoors. Station games were after lunch and things seemed to be more smooth sailing for me during the first half of the day. There is this thing about how all mass-commers are rahrah &outgoing, but i just couldn't decide if i really wanted to just keep leading. Everyone got abit tired after the food &I just couldn't get the group enthu and all ):

With no ideas but a fuchia bandana on hand, we ended up being "Pinky has Brains".

Things started picking up during the station games though. We had to walk across the "Scotland river" with only 7 legs (there were 10 of us) so we came up with this crazy line and to cross using only our hands and butts. At the end of it all, we were exhausted and I got this really nasty dirty blister on my hand ):

!BLISTER
Don't click on it if you don't want to see my blister (its really quite gross -.-)

I was whinning abit after i found the blister but then I figured it really isn't like how it was in MG no more. There were no more girlfriends with me to make a big fuss outta my "injury". No one really thought it was a big thing so we just continued playing, that really made me think of "nurse" yam and Zhen&K ):

However, after a while we all started to familarize with each other and everyone's whacky side started to show. Glenn's the joker right from the start, since the diamond game and stuff. The station games were hilarious with his constant Cheenaman/Australian accent & his "confucius says...". Haifiz &Kampong Boy were darn funny too, turns out we're one lazy team who kinda ditched the last station to go back to the air-con resting area to slack. HAHAHA.

Today has been pretty exhausting, tmr's more of individual course orientation, hopefully that's more interesting & less running. S&W everyday T______T

our shoes, ahhaa.

Settled some stuff in the afternoon before meeting ros at Orchard to catch Funkamania Finals (: Standing from about 5pm - 9.30pm gave us nasty backaches & stuff but it's cool to catch the top10 sweat it out for the champion title. So many of them improved so damn much it was just so worth to watch them again even if it is the same routine.


contestants in front of judges table after performing. that's TradeMark(blue) and staticflow (purple)

Photo drought, my too-sensitive camera won't take any nice photos of the groups especially when they are dancing. The lighting wasn't exactly very flattering either.




Caught up with Catrina for abit near the end of the event. Feels pretty good to keep in contact, considering we met through such a weird way lollll.


catrina; ros; juu

Congrats to TradeMark; Champions of Funka'08!

p/s: yesyes, watchd it though i had school the next day

Took Ziggy to the vet today to get his final vaccination :D i would be able to take him out from next week on!

awww (:

Met wern at Plaza Sing for lunch, then headed to Fort Canning for another weird trip of mine, lol. Wasn't that much of a photoday, cause everything I take there would end up just looking a mess of foresty-green anyway.

Wood carving pieces(like above) were all around Fort Canning, and some of thme are really amusing/abstract :b I like this one the best. Plugs.

HELLOHELLO NP MASSCOMM!

& so results were out on Thursday. I've just really really secured my place in Ngee Ann Polytechnic and it's really quite a relief. I don't think i did that bad, that's me though.

Some really unexpected grades, but I've really got to thank the teachers for those (: I hate my English grade though, how could I how could I pffffffft. I should be retaking it, argh.

Headed to KAP with mil, sharon & k after results to just talk &stuff. We all really are heading to totally different places (okay, maybe except Sharon). Oh, and she's got this tiny camera from Japan, it's sooooo cute &sexy (:

Last company event; Presentation on Catalist @ SGX on 23rd January 2008.




Had to double up registration & photographer again, but the event went pretty smoothly. I really do wonder if I'll still be helping out at SVCA after i start school, but I guess it all depends on workload and timings.
---

Everything's so quick, especially for me(?). School's offically starting for me on Monday already (the rest have to wait 3 more weeks for JAE results to be released before they officially start, no?) I'll definitely miss life in MG, it's like breaking away from a habit I've cultivated for 10 full years.



I wrote letters to a few of the girls (wish I wrote to all but it was pretty last minute :x). I'd be lying if I mentioned I'm not worried about life in the new school and how the environment/people would be totally different & stuff. Like what yam said, it's pretty frustrating to have to worry about things that you know would be solved anyway. Time is gonna fix it all, yes.

On a sidenote, Kuek and I just started our Msn Wars again recently & it's just so fun&nice to catch up with an old friend again. He's so funny he's cheering me up a whole lot, gahhaa. HELLO KUEK.

p/s: this blog post is delayed because i wanted to fix my layout first. Apparently it's screwed on a number of coms but it's fine for mine, no matter on IE/Frontpage! GRRRRRR....

While others might have done their "looking back on 2007" post close to three weeks ago, I am only updating my blog for the first time in 2008 now. This is the longest hiatus I've taken, having not updated for so long. (I don't think i wan to do it again, its tiring to suddenly blog everything at once, phew)

So many things, I don't even know where to start. On another note, I finally changed my layout after like 2 years? Edited this one quite a fair bit, credits still to the original person though (:

I'll begin with the most recent then, since if I'd blogged, it would be that way anyway.
