there's the end of a busy busy week.
and here's a short recount.
FRIDAY
guitar BBQ!
most of us went straight to Pasir Ris after practice in school.
however we took such a long time eating (i think becos of me)
and at NTUC (ended up buying 9 bottles of mineral water)
and waited super long for 403,
that we ended up even later than JingHuan who went home to deposit her alto guitar!
oh and then we went blading/cycling!
Suat & Kim tried to teach me to blade!
and i fell like, lots of times that even i lost count.
oh and Suat fell cause she tried to save me lor!
SO SORRY! >.<
and the BBQ was fun!
thanks 940 for all the food! ((:
but the Year 6s & Year 5s were still not really interacting much.
i was worried that XiaoYou & YiWei will get lost,
so we decided we'll go play in the playground then can suibian fetch them in (:
so the Year 5s went to play!
there were lots of kids there in the afternoon but at night it was mostly cleared (:
there was this circle pull-up bar thing, and this rotating plate thing,
and this obstacle course and this flying-fox thing..
haha it all made us super dizzy and super sandy and super felt like puking.
we all had a lot of fun!
but we didnt managed to finish playing the entire playground,
cause kim's phone and 940's ball went missing.
kim's phone was picked up by someone so that's easliy settled,
but we didnt hav such luck with the ball.
we spent super long trying to look for it but efforts were in vain.
sigh. think we better buy her a new ball le.
anyway guitar will be performing for Year 6s graduation!
we'll be the 1st group to perform at the DHS TJR campus!
so honoured right (:
SATURDAY
the embRACE funfair!
went collect the Remly Burgers before going to the funfair,
and sort of felt cheated cos there was no burgers nor egg.
had to prepare our own egg omlettle in the seed ro.om.
was listening to little nonya stories by Fredrick.
haha speaking of Fredick,
here's yet another Mr Helpful story. (:
one of us, WeeLeng i think,
wanted to go toilet then Fredick offered to bring her to the nearest toilet.
then the corridor was quite dark lah,
so she commented "wah so scary"
then Fredick was like, "want me to wait outside the toilet for you?"
omg lah!
he super gentleman right?
and he's quite a good brother too!
he specially got us to save a shirt for his brother,
who is super cute also!
and both of them kind of manned the ice-cream stall,
and kept asking ppl to eat the tubs of leftover ice-cream,
when the both of them where eating plain ice (the ice-kachang kind)
so nice right!
^______________^
haha but embRACE ended nicely.
and it turned out much better than expected!
even the funfair was ok lah,
though it was more of an internal affair more than anything and we ended up bringing home a lot of the things but we all enjoyed ourselves very much!
one kid even commented that "it's the best day of my life" while eating a whole cupful of ice-cream.
[ oh and we even managed to break even (: ]
and i think i really learnt a lot from embRACE.
from the traditional ethnic practices, to how to deal with kids,
making new friends, and improving relations with old ones,
and more importantly, working will people, organisational skills, and learning more about myself and realising my mistakes.
basically, embRACE rock!
it was certainly a super fullfilling and meaningful week.
and i'm going to miss Fredrick! ((:
SUNDAY
SV trip gathering!
went to play pool b4 helping the guys with the BBQ shopping.
seriously learnt the lesson of not buying just the cheapest of everything.
and after fetching the 2 lost sheep,
i seriously think i know Marine Parade a bit better now (:
it was nice catching up with the SV ppl (:
but i think future gatherings should avoid places that are too far to the East/West?
like this time the Boon Lay ppl took almost 2 hours to get to ECP >.<
haha i saw the 3 Boon Lay kids to City Hall MRT!
and Geraldine made them sms me when they got home,
which was super late lah!
i think we shld jus go for a simple steamboat session for smth for next gathering.
haha ((:
yupyup so that ended my busy busy week.
noticed that i havent been doing much work this week >.<
sigh after this performace going to start being hardworking agian!
plans for this week:
