Peace and quiet in IBRC. Not so many students now. Grrr.. still need to be around here because of admin duties and I am bored. But it's ok, it will be the last day today. Next week will be my block leave already. I better use all my days wisely.

Something quite interesting I found out just now. Some of us were having a talk with Ms Phua and realised we were all 25 babies. All 5 of us had our birthdays celebrated on the 25th! It was really such a coincidence. We are in for a surprise.. Haha.. Shh..

Sigh.. feel so dead this week like I have lost my energy. Hate it. Also feeling this feeling and I do realise how people feel sometimes. Huh..

I know, I know.

I don't like the feeling when Sunday comes to an end. It would mean the start of a new week again, a routine and the can't-wait-for-friday feeling.

Anyway, managed to get some good rest after a tiring Saturday. Woke up around lunch time and surfed the net for a little while before getting ready to go to my great grandmother's house. My mum said it has been a long time since everyone went to see her so it was another so called mini family gathering.

Nearing her house, my mum and I smelt chicken wings and at once we knew that chor chor was cooking her favourite dish once again.

No one else was there yet and I chatted with Christine yEe-yEe while enjoying my chicken wings.

It was about 1-2 Hours later when the CHIA family arrived. The mAddy fooL FooLs family. Oops =X Yah.. Christine YeE-yEe, Jelz and me later went to the room to play Mahjong. It's been a long time since I touched those tiles so I was kinda slow. Sadly, didn't game any and when my mum joined in later, she kept winning!

Played a few rounds and it was time to go for church. Today's service was a litte longer as there was a special guest, a religious brother. His speech was interesting and humourous. It certainly made everyone laughed. A remember the last part when he said to that parents should not stop their sons or daughters to be priests or nuns or not they will get a daughter-in-law from hell.

Yawns.. Monday blues..

It's Fun on Foot Adventure Singapore today organised by the National Heritage Board. Hmm.. for those who have not heard about it, it's so called a mini amazing race. Our group, Beyond-ers, consists of Clarice, Liying, Jiali and me but Jiali could not make it in the end so it was left with 3 of us.

The day started for me when I woke up at about 6.15. Went to Chinatown to meet the rest. After registration, we got our map and clues and we planned and strategized our route. We tried to solve the riddles, looked into the directory for any heritage spots, places and buildings and even called some of our family members to help us out.

It was crazy. The "Orange-invasion" flooded the roads and streets. So many people were jay-walking (Ahem, it includes us too) and cars would just horn. There were so much pushing and squeezing around especially at site locations where questions and answers could be found.

Finally, from zone 1 to zone 2 to zone 3, we finished at Labrador Park. Well, no hopes of winning because there were so many answer sheets submitted already. Still, it was great accomplishment! We decided not to wait. We grabbed our goodie bags, bought hot dogs and left.

Next stop was to visit Liying's push cart shop at National Library. Then hanged around for a while and it was off to Kovan for guitar lessons. I was so tired and so was Clarice. We did slept in the train.

Songs we learn in guitar is getting so much harder! I am so dead.. Haha.. Romance De Amor have not been mastered yet. Was taught Robbie Williams's Better Man and Fur Elise. Argh.. Need time to practise!!!

Haha and yes, I am so broke. I decided to pay for guitar lessons and realised that my UOB nets transaction was declined. Simply said, there wasn't enough money to pay! Shucks, had to use my POSB instead. Congrats man.. And yah, I still can go rent a book at Sans Bookshop for $16.50. I want to buy the book but I guess I need the cash back.

Where have all the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ gone?

I was so looking forward towards dinner yesterday! Aunty Anne was giving a treat at Jumbo Seafood restaurant. I was happy too because we don't really get together as one big family to eat and so, it would be nice. Thus, after I signed out from ARDC, I immediately rushed home.

My grandmother came out to open the door for me because I forgot to bring my keys. Realised she was sweating and I did smell food. Strange... I thought we are going out for dinner? Out of curiousity, I asked my grandma what was happening and to my disappointment, the dinner treat was cancelled. Haha, so much for wanting to have a delicious dinner! But well, Aunt Anne would postpone the treat to another day and hopefully I can make it.

Ok the next thing I am going to say, you guys should probably be sick of it after hearing it for a couple of times already. "I am in IBRC staring at the clouds once again!!!" Ok crap.

Anyway, this week will be totally be boring for me because there isn't much to do. Our applied research presentation would probably be next week. Sigh.. and got to prepare for ICA next week.

Went to collect the Fun on Foot adventure T shirts today and attended the travel seminar on the Immersion Programme in school. I so badly want to go for a holiday! The 7 days 6 nights India trip was my favourite but it is also the most expensive. It's $1550 and taxes and other charges have not been added in yet. Ahh.. Will see how things go. Need to ask my parents first.

Hmmm archery trials at 5pm? Haha sounds interesting but I haven't tried archery before. We'll see.

Cheryl, OUT!

Yesterday marks the end of Camp Focus '05. I was super duper tired yesterday and just took a cab home after it ended at about 6+pm. It was promised that the camp would end at 3pm and there were delays resulting in going home late. I got back home feeling so lethargic and aching all over. It was nice to be home again. I took a quick bath and didn't feel like going to my grandma's house but I still did. I came back home earlier in my Uncle's car and 'watched' the Apprentice. Well, I was kinda dozing off throughout the whole show. Just so so tired.. Back in school again, feeling so lazy and sleepy.

Regarding the camp, it was really not what I expected. It was a leadership training camp. I think most of the time were more of physical training. It's all about endurance. It was kinda disappointing for me in a way due to my knee problem. Almost every exercise or games that involves me physically, I had to withdraw. I attemtped to give it a try for some but only to find out that my legs could not take it and I pulled out. But I thank some of my team mates that helped me out during the games. It's like they didn't left me behind but came back to help speed me up.

Perhaps this kind of camps are not for me. Stupid knee. Haha. However did learn at least some things from the camp. So much other details about the camp but just wanna the keep the post short, too lazy to type.

I am tired tired tired.

Feel so dreamy and tired after my lunch. Once again back at IBRC 'looking at clouds.' 3 and a 1/2 hours to go before TEP ends but it's not over because there is a camp focus briefing at 7.30pm. So between 6.00-7.30pm should be going over to grassroots? We'll see. Haha so many activities coming up. Oh no, and this saturday's guitar lesson would be missed.. Opportunities cost.

Anyway, had a good lunch yesterday with Clarice. Went to Novena to eat at Coca. Had the steamboat buffet and we were fantastic.. ate a mountain of stuffs and we kept calling for more. Took some cool pics with my hp but don't think I will be able to upload it here because I can transfer pics from my hp to the computer just yet. My brother is taking so long to help me with that. Grrr..

Alright, shall continue surfing the net.

My eyes are shutting. Can't seem to stay awake till late these days.

Watched War of the Worlds with Michelle yesterday at Yishun. Shocking advertisements and sound effects gave us the scare. The exit out of the cinema was also quite creepy. There were so many staircases and doors all over the place. It looked like some kind of spooky maze. o.o

Well, about the show, it made me realise that man can do anything in desperate times. I didn't entirely understand some parts of the show until it was explained to me today. Not bad I would say just that I didn't like the ending that came so quick and sudden.

Hmm.. as for today, woke up and got ready to go to school. Rotaract Club organised a balloon sculpturing and origami class.. Haha.. Balloon sculpturing sure isn't easy especially the bear we were taught! It calls for lots of patience. Then next up was an interview to be commitee members. It was a long wait for me as I was the last. About a 15 min interview and I came out only to realise that Clarice and Jiali were 'MIA' and my bag disappeared into thin air. Thanks man!

A saturday is over.. Just like that..

I was on my way home in the bus when I heard the news on tv mobile. Apparently, blasts and explosions occurred in London and it was shocking. It was joyous news yesterday when London won the bid to host the 2012 Olympics and today, it's terrible news.

When I got back, my grandfather opened the door for me and told me that Uncle Hun's mother passed away. It was another shocking news for me. She passed away this morning and the reason was because of throat cancer.

After dinner I went with my parents to the supermarket and when I was back, saw the words flashed on the tv screen "Terror group claims attack of Al-Qaeda" and now PM Tony Blair is quite certain that the terrorists were reponsible for the blasts.

What is the world coming to?

In IBRC room blogging again. One thing good about here is that you are facing the window and you can look at the birds, clouds, buildings are trees. Not any fantastic view but you know.. at least..

Yesterday - David Beckham came to NYP!!! Yeah, no kidding. I am not any fan of his but seeing him is like a once in a lifetime opportunity. Haha.. it looks pretty much the time in tv. The auditorium was sure filled up completely and you could hear lots of screams and cheers. He was only there for a while though. For about 20 mins.. He gave out an award and gave a short little speech. Hmm.. I managed to take some videos and pictures but it wasn't that clear. Shiya's video cam was great man.. Clarice took good views of him.. =P and a girl sitting behind actually wanted to buy it! Haa..

Later had a early dinner. Signed out from my stopover and went to watch the SYF youth orchestra at Victoria concert hall with Clarice and Liying. Wish that talented people luck as they will be representing Singapore in Vienna.

Oh yeah, keep those tagging coming in people. I may delay the reply or may not reply because I hardly blog at home now. So, I can't access to the tagboard because the school bans it. The most is I am able to read your tags only. Too lazy switching to another tagboard that the school didn't ban.

Anyway, who would win the vote to host the 2012 Olympics? Was actually watching the presentations live on the web. Haha.. pretty interesting. I only managed to watch Moscow's and London's presentations. Will go home and check out what's happening later.

Now just waiting for time to go by. There supposed to be presentation at 5pm.. but looks like it is postponed to tomorrow. Great.. if not could have just gone for the Rotaract interview just now.

Okie.. that's all for now..

I am currently in IBRC feeling bored, cold and hungry. Decided to blog because I am super bored as usual. Will be doing a presentation later at 3pm on Poh Tiong Choon logistics LTD. Yeah I know.. Boring..

How am I passing my time? Haha I am surviving by surfing around websites and reading friends' blogs. So guys, please update your blogs.. you will be doing me a big favour. Haa.. well, I kinda feel like laughing when I read some of them because a handful was talking about their TEP stopover. They were complaining about how boring it is and etc. And you can just see from their entry how BORED they are. Lol.. Hmm.. I guess so many other students will be complaining in their blogs too and I was wondering if any supervisors were to read all these 'interesting' posts, how would they react?

Ok just a short dumb post. TGIF. =)
