SJAB observance ceremony today. It is the very first ceremony. Missed the 1st lesson today. Had the ceremony, took the SJAB pledge and even managed to sit on the specs stand. Many people commented on Mrs Sushilla's retirement. After all the speeches, went to see Mrs Sushilla. I will never forget my sec 1 literature teacher. Lessons went on as usual. After school, there was cca. Changed into full-u. Reported and had to go to decorate the SJ board for open house tmr. Our board is very colourful and there is not much words regarding SJ. Took quite a long time to get the board ready. Tmr still have to go to school early to bring all the stuff. After getting ready the board, changed out of full-u and joined our squadmates. We had interaction all the way to cca ends. Cca ended and my squadmates started crying. haiz... Saw Huiting crying so badly and I started to cry too. So basically we were crying while watching the sec 4 do all their last things. Next year will be our turn. haiz... We cheered and said 'It's just goodnight and not goodbye' to the sec 4. So sad... Went to macs for dinner. We were chao noisy and I think everybody in macs was annoyed with us. We laughed and talked so loudly. Suddenly, the whole place was like filled with SJ people. Past year seniors even returned. I was laughing away at the slightest things, maybe influenced by the people sitting near me. hahas. Food spitter no. 1: Huiying. She spat out food after Shuh Ying said something. Food spitter no. 2: Debbie. She spat out food ON ME !!! cos she was laughing too hard at Huiying. Food spitter no. 3: Lynette. For some reason. Food spitter no. 4: Shuh Ying. Again for some reason. Time passed really fast. It was 8.30pm before I knew it. Went home at 8.40pm. Luckily I was able to catch the 9pm show. hahas.

Had free period right in the morning. 1.15hours! But it is so early that the library has not open and there was nothing we could do so we took a nap. Didn't feel like going back for AMaths lesson although Mrs Tan was on MC. Had PE after that. Badminton! So fun but the hall was so hot and stuffy. Recess. The lessons after recess were very short cos the jubilate people left already and so, we had lots of free time. Stayed back after school to see the performance for POP. Met Estee, Cheryl and Wen Shin at around 5 plus at ps. Took mrt then cab to Kallang theatre. We were so early that we could visit the dressing rooms to give the roses and were in the theatre earlier than the others. We could even choose the best seats. While waiting for the show to start, Estee and I suddenly talked about High School Musical. I didn't know she would watch. We were singing the songs. So funny. The show started after the GOH arrived. The front part before the interval was all the music and the CCS drama. During interval, bought 3 curry puffs for $2 and Estee bought mineral water for $2! It was so expensive and during sports day, can get that mineral water for free. hahas. Continued with the show. It was more interesting after the interval cos there were the dances. I like the primary school dance. So cute! After everything, Cheryl and I waited for my parents to come. We walked around at the same time waiting. The 1st casualty of the night -- Xiaowei! She fell into the drain! My parents came and sent Cheryl home before going home.

First day of school:
I was so sleepy in the car and so not use to waking up that early. Had a really long assembly today. Luckily the prefects managed to sit down if not my legs will be breaking. First lesson, Mathematics. Ah! EM teacher changed to Mdm Lee! I want Mrs Tan!!! After Mathematics was English then Physics. Recess! My first recess of the term. Toast! Discussed POP in the fam lounge. After recess was Chemistry. Went to the Chem lab and we never see Miss Praveena there. We thought our Chem teacher changed too. Luckily, we were supposed to go to the com lab and not Chem lab. Went through our test papers. Next was Chinese. We had to change our places. Sat back at my same place in term 1 with Michelle as my sitting partner. I like our row cos our row is the smallest with only 8 people. Biology next. Luckily I did my ws and I didn't have to ans the qns. After school, we met at 3U to do more discussion on POP. Designed the autograph page first with Sin Yee. After going through general stuff, we split up into our 3 groups. haiz... Admin quite pathetic with only 3 people, Debbie, Wanzi and me. We discussed the food, drinks, money and planned the schedule. We realised we had not enough time and went to request for an extended cca. After all the persuasion, crying and complaining, we sat down together again to discuss more stuffs. We called the greys one by one to write their msg for the booklet. After finalising everything, we went to the canteen for a drink. Walked to the bus-stop with Debbie, Boonyi, Waner and Xilei. We were talking about staying overnight at Boonyi's house before nat com. I bet my mum won't allow...

Met Waner, Huiying, Sin Yee and Xilei at 6.15am yesterday before having breakfast and falling in together with the rest at the green patch. Had PT. Sprinted, ran, jumped. Had breakfast. It was pastries and not bread! The best breakfast so far. The 5 of us went to unpack our stuffs before going for the lesson on triage. We had triage next. I think it was quite a failure looking at how many people died. haiz... I think I won't be getting back my bandage. The sec ones and some sec twos had BFA while the rest had a lecture on the responsibilities of NCO. We had games next. Louisa thought of our group's cheer. It is chao nice and funny. " I say Ure, you say O, you say O, you say O. I say Na and you say Le, you say Le, you say Le. I say Urena and you say... OLE, OLE, OLE, OLE..." The games were all fun and exciting. I love the bathing time cos there was no one in the toilet and we could bathe in peace. We had dinner. I love rock melon! We discussed our item for the campfire. Teamed up with Boon yi's group. We wanted to do snow white but decided to do a song. Singing to the tune of Mary had a little lamb. The sec threes led the campfire! It was the most memorable campfire ever. Supper time before going for extra. It was so tough. Slept quite ok but kept thinking when would they wake us up. Had bunk inspection during my sentry duty. Didn't wash up cos there was not enough time. Had ball games for PT. Had breakfast before going for POP discussion. 7 of us were brought away. We went to pack our stuffs before doing area cleaning. Bunk 4 did clearing of bunks. We went back to do reflection. Too bad there was not enough time to have the last parade. Urena won 2nd for the games! :D After everything, we shared the prizes and our squad had lunch together.

SLC was quite fun.
Met Ying Chen at 7.15am and the school was quite deserted. Met Mindy before going to the drama studio. Registered and took the slc t-shirt before following Mindy to the toilet to change her shirt. We became door-men and opened the door for the people to enter. Waited until almost everybody was in the drama studio before entering. Wen Shin and I were in the same group. Group K! After settling down, we had ice breakers with our facilitators: Xilei, XiaoWei and Beatrice. We introduced ourselves to each other before playing a game. Thought of a group name starting with K and has to be related to leadership. There are Koro, King, King Koil and Kinetic. We chose Kinetic in the end. Went back to our seats to hear the performance by string orchestra and the speeches by the GOH and VP. Continued with the sweet shake, by exchanging sweets with other leaders. We had ice-breaker games. First was putting the no. of arms, legs, heads... that the game masters want. Our group was quite slow at first. Played indian poker next. Charmaine was so unlucky to pick king clubs and later, king hearts! Luckily I had 2 spades. Went to te MPR to play form the line eg. from the shortest to the tallest. First, we had to arrange ourselves from the shortest length from the knee to the foot to the longest. Obviousli mine's the shortest. We lost to the other group and had to do the can-can. We competed with another group, from the smallest ear to the biggest. We lost again! Pulled each other ears while walking. Played ball next but a really short one. Went back to the drama studio. We listened to the student leaders systems from different schools. Around half of the schools were done, we had buffet lunch at the forum. The food tasted so so good. I was hungry. Continued the other schools' systems. After everything, we were briefed on the food race. First, we had to find 5 things starting with the letter K. Key, key chain, key hole, kitchen and kid. We had to find a hot and spicy food starting with the letter C. Went to macs to eat chilli. Took the bus to YCK mrt station to take to Khatib. At Khatib, we had to form a band and sing to the public for 10 mins. We sang New Year songs, Christmas songs, National Day songs... Sang for only 2 mins before buying a food starting with I and 3 syllabus. We bought ice-cream from shop n save and ate the ice-cream-cone. Went to Woodlands next. We had to help people. Warren helped some guy carrying his bag. Wanted to help 1 old lady to clear the trash but she scolded us. Went to the clothes shop to help fold clothes. Needed to buy a malay food with the letter E. Bought egg mee siam from the food court. Went to CCK. We had to come out with a poem on slc. Joel thought of it: Student leadership convention, training us to perfection, Kinetic is bonding, friendships are blooming. Yupps. I think that's it. We had to say it to 5 people and made them say it was nice. Bought a drink with the letter M. Milk Tea! After drinking, went to Sembawang. We had to collect 10 receipts wth signatures on them. I managed to get 1 from a lady and 1 from myself! We had to buy an Indian food with the letter A. Loon Yew went to get apple rojak (1st time hearing of it), while some people went to buy buns. Took mrt to YCK and took a bus back to school. While waiting for the bus, we ate the rojak. Red apple, Green apple and You tiao. Reached school, I think we were the only group that never complete the race. On the list, we had to go to Bishan to set a booth to introduce slc to the public and lastly go to popular in Jubilee to find out the cheapest items there. Had evaluation and reflection before going home.
Today sure is a tiring day.

5th (last) day of job attachment at LinC Aesthetic Clinic:
Woke up late today but managed to be the 3rd to reach Orchard mrt station after Mindy and Peiting. Walked to the clinic and again we reached exactly the same time as Angie did. Went to Iris room instead of the VIP room cos it will be used later. Mum and Sis came at 9am for their facial. Brought them in to the room and started cleansing for Sis first. She kept laughing and moving about that I couldn't cleanse properly. So irritating. Angie took over while I cleansed Mum's face. After managing both of their faces, we went to the powder room for them to tidy up. Went to the dispensary room to purchase cleanser 2 for Sis and me. Although it is the same name, we both had different types to suit our skin. Sis had the green one while mine's pink. After sending them off, went back to Iris room. Did admin work --- labeling bottles and finishing the thick roll of gauze. After finishing all of them, we went in for the talk. The talk was supposed to be for other people and the therapist allowed us to join in. Sadly, no one turned up for the talk and we were the only audience. It was quite boring at first but it was fun and interesting when it comes to the demostration. No one volunteered and May happily agreed to be the model. We were learning face lifting. We chatted with May about korean series while watching Angie performing the treatment. I couldn't feel the difference after the treatment. hahas. We ordered KFC and Pizza Hut for lunch. Couldn't wait to start eating. We ate together with May, Angie, Zoel and Dawn. After eating, we cleared the room. Went back to Iris room to continue doing admin work after a 'ride' on the massage chair. Our previous batch of the bottles were rejected and we had to repaste the labels. haiz... Did facial for Mindy's sister and she is just like my Sis, kept giggling! After doing facial for all of them, we did our last facial for ourselves. Jacq helped me and I did for her. After clearing up, we took lots of photos with the therapists. Over and over again. Gave our thank-you card and left with reluctance. haiz... This whole week has been really fun and interesting. I love job attachment week at LinC Aesthetic Clinic. I must come back again! :D

4th day of job attachment at LinC Aesthetic Clinic:
Went to Orchard mrt and I was the 2nd earliest again after Mindy. Read the chinese book until Peiting came. Walked to the clinic and today, we reached the clinic exactly the same time as Angie, we didn't have to wait. Placed our bags at the VIP room before following Cheryl to go around the place to take photos. We went to switched on the lights and the fire alarm went off! I wondered if we accidentally switched it on. Waited until 9am when my very first customer is doing facial --- Mindy. Did for Mindy facial and I totally forgot about the side head massage. After cleansing for her, Angie treated Mindy. Chen lao shi came for facial at 9.30am. After finishing Mindy's face, we waited for wang lao shi to come at 10am but she was late. So, I had to do facial first. Mindy cleansed my face but had to leave half-way cos wang lao shi came. Angie finished up my face. She took a really long time to get rid of my black and white heads. It was chao painful and I was about to cry. After everything, I was glad it was over. I was free already so did Amaths with Peiting. When wang lao shi finished, we went in to see her. She cut her hair! Went back to Amaths while Mindy did Physics and Cheryl attended to her friends. Went for lunch at Burger King and we decided to eat outside where is warmer. Half-way through, Cheryl came to join us. Then, there was bird-attack! Different types of birds came flying down to a table with left-over food and the table was right beside us! We hurriedly took our trays and went inside. It was so cold. After eating, we went back to the clinic. We cut the cotton swaps into half. We sure are efficient and we were done almost immediately. Mindy and I continued to cut 2 more packets and we made gauze swaps. I folded, Mindy cut and we made the sheets into swaps. Peiting and Cheryl helped once in a while. We did really fast and completed many bags. Dawn came in after her case with an actress! Too bad I missed the chance seeing her... Dawn came to help us cut and chatted with us. We did until 5 plus and went into the facial room. Angie told me to go to the dispensary room. She told me to buy the cleanser cos my face is dry and I have a lot of white and black heads. Luckily the company gave us 30% discount. They really pamper us. Things became unlucky after knowing that Zoel gave the morning time slots for facial to my relatives! Oh no. I forgot to state that they are only free after 2 pm. haiz... Wanted to make an exchange but no one is free in the morning. Called my mum again and again and I am so pissed with my stupid brother. Cried while talking and I didn't even have the feelings to take photos while the others were posing for the camera. Went off and I didn't feel like going home, scaring Peiting, Mindy and Cheryl. We went to taka to buy tako. I even bought torri Q. Spilled the sauce all over my bag and my nike jacket! argh. So unlucky. Took mrt home with Cheryl and Peiting. Almost fell when I lost my balance. So unlucky. I even slipped in the toilet after bathing!

3rd day of job attachment at LinC Aesthetic Clinic:
Didn't meet Cheryl today cos my dad couldn't send me to amk station. Met Mindy at Orchard reading book and Cheryl, Peiting joined us later. Walked to the clinic and we were again chao early. Waited outside the clinic until Angie came to open the door. We waited for the rest to come and we had to practise cleansing again. This time, we had to do the cleansing on Angie. It was quite scary and I was afraid to make mistakes. My massages were fine but she commented that my hands were too cold. For the cleansing part, I accidentally used the sponge to clean the lips. Oh no. But it was chao funny. After everybody had their turn on Angie, we practised on each other again. Onyu did on me and I did on Cheryl. Angie taught us how to apply mosituriser and sunblock. After doing so, we went back to the VIP room to help out in admin stuff. We had to screw the caps onto the bottles. We did very fast and the task was done in a few minutes. We had nothing else to do but to rest until lunch time. Went back to food republic for lunch. Ate beehoon with dishes. haiz... I should have chose either set A or B cos when I pick my own dishes, it was more expensive. I didn't realise that there was so much food on my plate but I managed to eat finish. I am so bloated. Went back but stopped at 1 shop to see what to buy for them. In the end, we returned to the clinic after going to the toilet. We had nothing to do after lunch. Rest, wait, read, rest, wait, read... In the end, the manager came in and allowed us to watch Scooby-doo 2. Yay! We watched the 1st disc and I realised I was the only one left watching cos Peiting and Onyu slept, Jacq was reading the magazine and Cheryl and Mindy went to do reception work. Wanted to watch disc 2 but the recorder got problem. Mindy and Cheryl came back. So in the end, Cheryl, Peiting, Onyu and Jacq slept while Mindy read magazine and I did my Physics! One by one they all woke up and I managed to finish the Physics paper except one qn. We managed to find work after the break. We had to help with the gifts that the company will be selling. There were notebooks, photo albums, photo frame and lamp shades. Very very nice! And lucky us we managed to be able to get 1 for ourselves. I chose the photo frame. After doing all the wrapping, we were free to leave. We went back to the shop to buy a really nice paper to make a card. The 1 piece of paper costs $1.90! Wow! Mindy and Cheryl bought ice-cream before taking the mrt. Took the mrt home. Too bad we didn't learn make-up today. Today was really a slack day and tomorrow will be again.

2nd day of job attachment at LinC Aesthetic Clinic:
Met Cheryl again at amk station. Today, we reached Orchard damn early. Met Peiting and Mindy as usual and walked to the building. We were very early and the clinic was not opened yet. Sat outside the clinic until the staff came to open the door. We waited in the VIP room for the others to come. When everybody was here, we began our practice session on cleansing of face. I did on Mindy again. We were the fastest! Waited at the VIP room again for the rest to finish. Chatted with Dawn on our ambition. Peiting and Cheryl joined us. Soon after, Jacq and Onyu finished too. We had a long chat with Dawn. I learnt that being in the sun will make you age faster! Wow. I am so dark already, I am getting old. After chatting, we cut the labels again before going to Wisma Atrium food court for lunch. The place there is really nice and the food looks delicious. Ate Yong Tao Fu and beancurd for dessert. Went to Popular to buy the chinese book before going back. We were early again and I began to read the book. When all of us were back, Dawn decided to show us skin polish. We drew lots and I was the model again. She cleansed my face, my face had a 'steam bath' and she used this diamond suction to remove the blockages. I had lots of white heads, stubborn ones too. She helped me to remove some and showed the rest how do the white heads look like. Gross. The whole treatment was $300 and so, I saved $3oo with the free treatment! Next was like a test. We had to cleanse the face again for Angie to see. I did on Mindy and Cheryl. So, I cleansed my face 5-6 times today! After mastering the cleansing, Angie showed us how to apply mascara on the eye lashes and removing it. She demoed on herself and helped us to apply on 1 eye while we did the other. I was the first one. I had really long eye lashes and it was quite nice to apply mascara on them but the mascara hardens my eye lashes making it difficult to blink. We chatted until Dawn came to teach us the removal as Angie had a customer. After cleaning and clearing up, we were dismissed. Went to taka as Peiting had the craving for tako. All 3 of them bought tako while I brought pretzel and torri Q. greedy... Took mrt home with Cheryl and Peiting again. Tomorrow will be an exciting day. We'll be learning make-up!

1st day of job attachment at LinC Aesthetic Clinic:
Met Cheryl at 8 at amk station. Found out that her shoe strap broke and we tried to find super glue at Guardian! hahas. Took the mrt to Orchard. Met Mindy and Peiting. Cheryl and I thought that we had to take a cab down but the building was just across the mrt station! The place was really nice. A great place to have facial, to relax yourself. We were early there. Went into the VIP room to be briefed and introduced to the people working there. We had to introduce ourselves too and almost everybody thought that I was yumei?! Our very first hands-on activity --- Facial! Peiting was our first model. We learnt how to massage the head and put on the head band. I was the 2nd model. The therapist said that I have alot of white heads and even let the rest touch my head! So embarrassing... But the cleansing was really nice and relaxing, makes me feel like sleeping. We did on each other next. I did on Mindy and vice versa. So, I washed my face twice today with cleansing solution. We went back to the VIP room to do some admin work eg. Cutting paper and sticking stickers. We did until 12pm which is our lunch break. Cheryl met up with her mum to buy a new pair of shoes while Peiting, Mindy and I went to taka for lunch. We ate really fast cos we were very hungry. Cheryl got herself a new pair of sandals which is really expensive. We rushed back cos we were going to be late. We reached the clinic just to find no one there so we went to the toilet. When we came back, Mindy and I were in-charged of the reception. We waited for phone calls. When the receptionist came back from lunch, we joined the others at the VIP room. We continued with admin work. I cut cotton swaps and stick labels onto the bottles. Peiting and Mindy did reception work while the rest of us did admin work. We had a break by learning how to operate the massage chair. We each got a turn of around 1 min on the chair. So comfortable... We continued again with the admin work. It was so tiring to cut small pieces of paper. My eyes were hurting after cutting. It was a busy day for the clinic today cos there were lots of customers. Went home with Peiting and Cheryl. haiz... Working life sure is tough!

Went to Sentosa today with my cousins. It was drizzling but stopped before we headed for the luge. Took the chairlift and were busy searching for the waterbottle that my cousin dropped last year. During lesson time, my brother told the guy that we know how to drive already and so my brother, 2 cousins and I went first. The guy said that my brother and my cousin fail and my other cousin and I passed! hahas. We went down the road. Decided to go to underwater world before coming back to ride again. Before entering, we bought Ben and Jerry's ice-cream. Everybody got themselves cookie and cream while I had chocolate fudge brownie. My brother wasted $7.50 taking photo with a python. It is so not worth! We entered the underwater world. Went to the touchpool first. I remebered I used to be damn scared but now I touched everything except the starfish, stingray and pufferfish. The bamboo shark sure is nice to touch. We proceeded to see the angel fish. It is this tiny tiny shelless snail with "wings". It is transparent and so there is this light to shine on it. It is chao cute! We saw the crabs, jellyfish, seahorse... We went around the belt 3 times. I love the dugong! It is so nice to help a fish swim freely when it got entangled in the seagrass. I learn how to differentiate female sharks from male sharks. So, my cousins and I were screaming, "This shark is female! That's male!" I guess we were really annoying. Spent 1 hour there before going for lunch. Had some crispy noodles, some spaghetti, chicken nugget, chicken wing and satay. It started to rain while we were eating. haiz... We were practically trapped there. When the rain was lesser, we took a bus to the beach station. Went to 7-eleven to buy big gulp, potato chips, mashed potato, ice-cream... My mashed potato had a dead fly in it! Gross! Drove to cinemania cos it was still raining. Watched the kids bedroom again and the escape from dino island. It was so cool. I love the dino island. As it was still raining, we all decided to return home. So not fun!

Went back for footdrill session again. It was raining again. Watched the sec 1 and 2 performances. There was improvement for the sec 1's performance but they are going to change it. sec 2's performance was ok. Practised our squad's item. So funny. Went to do footdrill. It started to rain again. After a while, we went for lunch. Continued with footdrill. After everything, we stayed back to do our group flag. The measurements sure is werid but we still cut the flag out. Did the flag but we took a long time sewing it. Left half-way through. haiz... We got to meet again to finish it. My aunt came to pick me to swimming club. Wanted to swim but I was the only one swimming so decided to go there and bathe instead. Had dinner at the cafe. I really ate a lot! I love cheesecake! After dinner, we went to the games room. Headed for the motorbike race first. I admit my driving skills isn't very good. Played shooting with my cousin. I am pretty good in shooting. hahas. Played photo hunt again and again but the machine suddenly blacked out. I want my money back! Went to my uncle's house. Watched the last episode of the channel 8 drama then played hide-and-seek with my cousins. Watched TV. Went home at around mid-night and watched the 1st soccer match. Go Germany! Germany won anyway.

Went back to school once again to know our groupings for jtc and the campkit list. The groups all have weird and funny names, named after plants i think. Mine's Urena?! and im the only sec 3! haiz... Searched the net to find out what Urena is. It's a plant, some type of fern for medical purposes. It looks just like the maple leaf.
Went to watch X-men 3 at J8. Its kinda short but really exciting. I love Kitty! Angel is nice but not very powerful. Jean Grey looks damn scary in this movie. I didn't watch X-men 2 cos I thought it was boring but X-men 3 is really good. haiz... There's so many movies I want to watch! She's the man, Garfield 2, Cars, Over the hedge...

Zone Team Building day was really really fun!
Went to hq by 8.30am. We were split up into groups with the groups' names being of brands' names. There's Nike, Puma, Quicksilver... My group is Mitzuki. I don't even noe what kind of brand it is! Along with me is Tomoe and Priscilla. Our group leader is Wen Xiong. We sat in our groups and did the introduction. Our group was chao quiet. We were supposed to think of our group's cheer but we took a really long time.
Set off to Sentosa. We gathered at Cinemania and every group was to perform their cheer. While all the other groups were doing their cheer so well, our group went, "1,2,3...-silent-" over and over again. haiz... We set off to our first station --- The Lost Civiliazation. There, we have to draw on 4 people's faces like the faces on the rocks. We were given time to memorise the photo before drawing on the person's face. I drew on Tomoe's face while Tomoe drew on mine. It was so funny. After the game, I didn't want to clean away my make-up, which attracted many people's attention later on, saying, "What happen to your face ah?"
The next station was at the dragon trail. We cut through the forest. I almost lost my balance and so, I grabbed onto a tree and injure myself. The tree has so many spikes, tiny ones. I came out with all the spikes stuck onto my fingers. It was kinda painful and some were buried deep inside my skin. I didn't play this station's game as Wen Xiong was helping me to remove the splints.
Went to Fort Siloso next. We waited so long for Nike to come. We were to wrap the hula hoop given with newspaper. 1 person was in-charge of the hoop and must prevent it from being wet. We each had 2 water bombs and we had to make the other group's hula hoop as wet as possible. Our group lost miserably. We had to do the banana dance as the punishment but it was more of Wen Xiong doing the dance.
We took a tram to palawa beach. The game was to walk on something to cross a 'river'. We were given poles and crates. It was quite difficult in the first place but soon we got the hang of it. After everyone crossed the river, Ying Ying said we took a really fast time and we had lots of teamwork! :D
Went to 7-eleven before going to the next station. We had to wait for Nike to come again. They were always late. haiz... We had to dig the sand to find pieces of coloured paper and plastic cups. We lost to Nike again! We had to replace the stuff in the sand. Wen Xiong dug really deep and placed 2 cups and lots of paper inside. When we were done, as both groups had too little points, we had to go back to dig up our stuffs again! We went to dig out the really deep one but to no avail. There goes our bonus...
Walked to Tanjong beach. There we completed the task given. Wen Xiong was the first to head for the waters. Some of the group members joined him for a swim. I didn't want to then they started to chase after people to throw them into the sea. I was the first target for them. I was swung into the sea! Drank lots of sea water. After that, I didn't want to get out of the sea. funny rite? We decided not to continue the games anymore and were prepared to lose so we played in the sea. It was fun riding the big waves! We waited until Nike came and made them join us in the sea. After playing in the sea for around 1-2 hours, we went to wash up. My bag broke and I had to carry my bag around like a baby. Changed to dry clothes before gathering at Cinemania. They announced the winners. Although we didn't win, we had fun in the sea! Mitzuki and Nike.

Went to Science Centre today AGAIN. Today, Huiying and I decided to meet at 8 instead. AGAIN, we had to wait for Mindy at Bukit Gombak station. We reached and Huiying ate noodles for breakfast AGAIN and Mindy was drinking her milo AGAIN. We walked to the Science Centre. We were super early cos there were not alot of people there. We went to macs to wait AGAIN. Saw Wanzi and Yuxi outside and asked them to join us. We went into the centre to wait for the rest to come. Unlike the day before yesterday, people were coming in later than expected. Mindy, Huiying and I felt like pros cos we came before. We dashed into the centre, stopped to look at the president's potrait before going into the lab. While running, we could hear screams cos the rest behind were shocked that the president's potrait could move! hahas. We went into the same lab, with the same instructor and sat at the same table. AGAIN! Except instead of Xueting, Peiting joined us. Today's workshop was not as interesting as the other day. We were supposed to extract DNA. Mindy and Peiting drank NaCl to get their cheek cells. So cool! Huiying and I were in-charged of the plant cells. Huiying so clumsy today. Knocked down her plant cells tube and Peiting's tube too. hahas. The workshop ended earlier than expected AGAIN. Yuxi, Wanzi, Ben and I went to macs for lunch. We put down our bags and stood in the middle of macs, 'looking lost'. Then a waitress came and asked us what we want to order. We said that we still haven't decided yet. She was so friendly, she brought us the menu and asked us to sit down while she take our order. I didn't noe there was such ordering service at macs! :) She took our order and the food was delivered to us really really fast. The price of being treated so nice, saving the time queuing and the effort to bring our food to the table was to fill up the feedback form. I was writing while Yuxi, Wanzi and Ben were giving ideas what to write. We commended this good service and the waitress as well. I bet the person reading the form will be laughing his head off. Macs became really crowded while we were having our lunch. We left and continued to explore the centre AGAIN. We took lots of photos at the water works. We managed to take a peek at the t-rex from the door that was left open. hahas. Save $10! We continued our exploration. Managed to watch the electricity performance AGAIN. This time, we were standing at the correct view. I managed to hold the fluorescent light stick. The explosion was even bigger than the other day's. After the show, I brought them to the machine where we could see how we look like when we were old. AGAIN. It was chao funny when everybody turned black when they are old. I like to see Wanzi evolve into Ben and into Yuxi. hahas. We left the centre and headed for the gift shop where we discover new cool stuffs. But we didn't buy anything today although Wanzi was tempted to. Left for the mrt station. We chatted on the mrt. I was the first to alight followed by Ben then Yuxi and Wanzi. Reached home to find that my sister cut her hair too! I have to admit that when I cut my hair yesterday, I didn't really like it but my hair now isn't as bad as my sister's! XP

Thursday, June 01, 2006
Went to Science Centre yesterday. Huiying made me wake up so early and the train was travelling so fast that we met Mindy at 8.20 instead of 8.35! So, we decided to go later on Friday. We reached Science Centre rather early so went to macs with Huiying, Mindy and Siyi. We waited until it was about time and when the rest were coming in. Met Xinrui but it's either she didn't see me or she didn't recognise me cos she didn't stop to say Hi. Haiz... Haven't seen her since Pri 6. We went in to the lab and it was freezing cold. Huiying, Mindy, Xueting and I were at table no. 1. Had the workshop until 11.30 when it was lunch time. We went to the cafe cos macs will be crowded. Ate instant noodles and Huiying was complaining how horrible it tasted compared to the 7-11's. I couldn't agree more. We all ate ice-cream after the noodles. Huiying continued eating roller coaster and Xueting ate a BIG fishball. After eating, we went to explore the centre. They have amazing things. I want to freeze my shadow again! Went back to the lab at 1 to continue our experiment. I think we were the fastest group! While waiting for the results, we watched videos. Our results were good and quite clear! We left the lab much earlier than the other group. Headed for macs to eat some more. I waited so long for my fries and in the end, it was not salted! We calculated how much we spent for the day and I spent the least! :D We continued exploring. Wanted to go see the t-rex but it was $10 per admission. We were fascinated by this machine that can show you how you look like when you were a baby, a teenager, an adult and an eldery. Huiying and I look so black when we were old. It was chao funny. We managed to catch the show on electricity. I like the explosion at the end. We wandered about and saw the exhibition on the president. Channel News Asia was fliming there. Curious, we waited until the picture started to move. Went to the gift shop with Huiying to meet Wanzi and Yuxi. Xueting and Mindy left soon after. The gift shop has really nice things. Wanzi kept buying and buying. We were pretty amazed by the mood ring. Before leaving, Wanzi and I bought the 80 cents worth of mystery gift. It was kinda pathetic but it was fun guessing what it was. Took a ride from Wanzi's mum. We chatted until we were dropped off at Bishan. Took the mrt home with Huiying.
Wanted to watch Channel News Asia last night but caught the news at Channel 8 instead. They showed the president's exhibition at Science Centre and even interviewed Hilda! Wow. Too bad didn't manage to see us at Channel News Asia.
