i like your socks

ok, so jojo's circus did help maybe just a little bit. i actually played out today and blown my guts out until i had no more guts.

BUT! it wasn't enough. so mr de says la. he's been on my back the whole week, i feel like stuffing a huge doughnut into his mouth to shut him up.

damn, no more Fosters for me tonight. i've been religiously watching it everyday at 1am and because today, band started at 8.15am, i was like a zombie the whole day. and band wasn't the only thing i had today, after that i had contemporary and then hiphop. it's two more weeks to the concert, everyone's going OH NO!!! but i'm going, OH YES!!! though i really wish ms tan and ms ho would quickly finish teaching us the dance and to stop changing the parts that we've already learnt. haha, when there was enough time in between band and contemporary to have lunch, change and blah, so i just decided to lie down on my bed for a while and i fell asleep! i woke up about hald an hour later but the thing was that i went back to sleep! and so i overslept for contemp and woke up and hour after it started. but ms ho wasn't angry, haha, yay.

ok, i seriously can't think of anything else to say though i'm trying to type as long as i can. why? cus it's history night tonight, haha, gonna start on CORRECTIONS. bah, somebody help me.

so jojo, what have you learnt today?

HEY JOJO, WHAT D'YA SAY? TELL US WHAT YOU'VE LEARNT TODAY, WE'RE ALL HERE SO TAKE IT AWAY! somethingsomethingsomething, TELL US WHAT YOU HAVE LEANR TODAY!

this morning before going to school for band, i was having my lunch and Papaya was watching Jojo's Circus. honestly, i hate that show, but since he was already watching it when i came, and since i'm such a NICE sister, i let him watch even though i was itching to change the channel. plus, i knew he would cry the house down if i even dared to touch the remote control, and i'm pretty much tired of listening to him shout and scream. but anyway, i managed to watch until the end of the show and i realised that i've learnt something from it! WOW. ok, here goes.

"you practise really hard for it, but when the time comes, you just have fun."

ok, so it was in the context of doing a circus performance, but if you put it in the context of band, or anything else, it can really make sense cus it's like, if you practise real hard and know your work, then when the time comes to perform, you don't have to worry at all cus you know your work, you won't screw up and all you can do is just have lots of fun. provided that you DO practise so much as to know your work and you have practically perfected the piece.

ok, enough of that. but honestly, that's what i came here to blog about, so yeah, THAT'S ALL FOLKS!

MOE Senior Leadership Camp

i just remembered that i haven't blogged on the MOE Senior Leadership Camp last wednesday to fryday, the 15th to 18th.

ok, i remember on tuesday night, the night before the camp, i was laughing at audrey cus she had to go for it and i didn't. haha, nahh, i was really really nice telling her how fun it was gonna be. (i was lying) well anyway, so wednesday morning, day one of the camp, loverly chrystal called me at 10 freaking 30 am, waking me up and saying...

chrys: hey max!
me: *grumble*
chrys: u wanna go for this MOE Leadership Camp? it's this camp where you'll learn to facilitate camps and you'll be facilitating sec 2 camp corri nex...
me: *mumbling* ehh?? isn't that today? (i was mumbling so much i was surprised she understood me)
chrys: yeah... but reporting time is at 12.30, but i'll try and push back the time for you, you can come at around 1.
me: wth... u do know i have to pack and stuff and m running out of clothes cus i just came back from confirmation camp on monday. (i was trying to make excuses, you see)
chrys: that's ok, all you need is any 4 school tops, or if u don't have then u could use any plain shirt. 2 shorts of any kind, 2 track pants (she started telling me the whole pack list, obviously she wasn't taking no for an answer) plus, it's quite a slack camp, and yeah, u wanted to go for OBS right, so this is gonna be just a really slack version of it,.
me: (brightening up at the word 'SLACK') okok, i'll see you then.

seriously, m such a bum. oh, today, i bought a can of green tea from the vending machine and when i was opening the can, i spilled green tea allll over, then when i was drinking it, my ballet friend was buying a can of drink for herself and the machine ate up her dollar, then she kicked it which made me laugh and spit out my green tea all over. then later while walking to the bus stop to go home, i burped REALLY LOUDLY. mahnnn, i think m starting to become a glutton.

ok, enough sidetracking, back to the topic of camp. so i made my way to school, i was surprised at how fast i packed my bag so i still had enough time to take the bus and saw no reason to take a cab, so i lugged my baggage all the way to school and was STILL early. we made our way to that changi camp place thing. i seriously think it was TOO slack, imagine that! wow, well, they had a lot of talks and were telling us points to remember while facilitating. in other words, nothing happened.

on the second day, it was much more funner, haha. we did the rock wall then high rope element. i was belaying for the first time in my life, and i was belaying jolena. poor girl, she got me as a belayer. well, at least she's still alive now, BE THANKFUL FOR THAT JO. well anyway, when jolena stepped onto the first rung of that ladder thing to go up, i got SOO nervous and started tightening the rope a lot. and when she was up on the SINGLE LOG (the most difficult of them all in my opinion), i started tightening it tighter and tighter even though i wasn't supposed to. until it got too tight and jo couldn't walk, WHOOPS, haha. ah well, she lived.

then it was abseiling and flying fox, i liked the flying fox, i was being really blur but hey, what's new? but i like it cus u know what? NO BELAYING! muahahahha.

then was lunch and KAYAKING!!!! i was anticipating it the WHOOLE DAY! and my partner was the ever so kayaking hating BECKY, ahahahaha. but after that, i didn't think i really like kayaking anymore, hahaha, our stupid boat kept going left, i have no idea why. stupid sampan.

came back and washed up. they taught us how to set up a campfire. it involves lots of wood, KEROSENE and cloth. HEHEHEHEH, sounds like a plan for disaster. and i kept falling asleep while they were explaining stuff to us, now you'll know who to blame if the whole of jalan batira(sp?) burns down during the sec2 camp sorri next year, hahahhaha.

yup, and that was practically it, we didn't do anything on the third day except clean up. but i really liked that place, i wished sec2 camp corri was gonna be held there, sadly no. the compound is much smaller, with more toilets and good food. and there's planes flying overhead like, forever. I LOVED IT. and it was so low that you would think that they would actually come crashing into you. and when you look up, you can see their wheels coming out, but most of the time they were already out, ready to land. nicee.

legion outdoor function!

yayy, there was legion today. some dudes from the Legion of Mary in st pats were supposed to visit us today, cus yeah, a school has to visit and be visited by another Legion in a year. so we kinda waited for them to come, we waited, and waited, and waited. then i decided to call them and it turned out that they tried to call me yesterday but there was camp. they called to say that none of them could make it on saturdays so the whole visiting idea was off. ... YES! YESYESYES!!! haha, i tried to act all sad and stuff but i was like practically jumping for joy.

after that we had an outdoor function, we went to billy bombers at TM to eat. omg, i tell u ar that AUDREY LIAW, she was up soooo late last night n i kept telling her that she'd better go to sleep or else she was gonna get shit from me if she overslept (which is way too expected), and guess what. she overslept. and she didn't come until we finished eating at billy bombers. nice. well anyway, PEEK CHURES!


haha, my cam caught elisabeth trying to sneak away!

confirmation camp

11th-13th november was The Church of the Holy Trinity's confirmation camp for con 3s in wonderful wonderful MALAYSIA. what fun. so before the camp, i was moping around the house thinking of all the fun things i could be doing if i don't go for camp, one of which includes a shopping spree at a Topshop warehouse where the stuff are REALLY REALLY cheap. another of which would be designing the band uniform AGAIN because a particular gay teacher who was in charge of band had lost the older one. ok, that's not really fun, but i had to do it and i simply had no time after i come back from camp. so i talked to my sister who actually liked her con camp last year and she told me what stuff they did. i really thought it was going to be really really boring. so she told me that i had to have an 'open mind' if i wanted to have fun, i mean like, of course things are gonna get draggy if i had some kind of expectation of how it was going to be and i'd probably be really disappointed. so fine, i went with an open mind.

so we had to meet in church at 6freaking30am. man, i had to tell myself "OPEN MIND OPEN MIND OPEN MIND". and it sucked when i overslept after telling my maid to wake me up at 5, telling clarissa to wake me up when she wakes up and setting 4 alarm clocks. i woke up at 6.30 and rushed like crazy, realising that my maid had overslept too, clarissa had overslept too and i had managed to sleep through all my 4 alarms. strike one. so i woke my mum up asking her to send me to church and i think she was put off about me waking her up so early that she didn't even ask whether i needed a lift home. strike two. when i reached the church, we were just waiting around for heaven-knows-what-for until 7.45 when we boarded the bus. in the meanwhile, our catechist kept taking super lame pictures. strike three. man, i wanted to go home already!

but i had an OPEN MIND, so i tried not to keep thinking of going home, instead i kinda tried to look forward to the activities and stuff. well, the highlight for day one was pretty much realising that our dorms had air-con, haha. and the food was good too, that i gotta be thankful for. oh, and there was also this thing where there were many stations for little lame games like dog and bone, soccer, netball... mainly just ice breakers, but thankfully, it rained, so i was spared of the netball and soccer. and lights out were quite early too, at 12mn and we had ample time to bathe.

the second day was alright, the highlight was this quest game where each of us in the group had a different role, there were warriors, theives, wizards, fighters, preists, healers and i was the oracle. =) they also showed some videos about confirmation and there was one which really struck me, and got me pretty worried too. i mean, i thought i probably deserved to be confirmed after attending cat class for 9 freaking years, from ever since i could remember, hell, i SHOULD be confirmed. but that video made me think, am i really ready? i mean, i am a Catholic yet i don't act like one most of the time and i know i do do some holy stuff once in a while but i really don't think it was good enough. then i realised that it really was a big step. this is my faith we're talking about, my life, my every action i make, and plus, they made it clear that no one could MAKE us confirm if we're not ready. but then afterwards, we had some reflection thing with our group facilitator and it kinda cleared some doubts cus he was saying that it doesn't really matter if we're not being good Catholics, as long as we're WILLING and trying to be one. because of that talk i started to be thankful i went for the camp, otherwise i would still be in the dark about confirmation and oblivious to what it really means.

then there was some reflection thing where they switch all the lights off, put lots of candles around, putting some slow background music and telling us to think about stuff. it was supposed to be really solomn and it usually makes lots of people cry but man, they are such losers at this. it was sooo anti climatic cus whenever it got really deep, one of the facilitators trip on the edge of the stage or someone sneezes really unglamly and makes everyone laugh. total waste of time. then they let us go to bed at a really early time around 11pm making us promise to be asleep at 2. works well for me. =) so i was just aimlessly walking around and i went to the hall to find a bunch of girls thinking of games to play. it was really fun, we just played random games for the first hour, then we asked the guys to join us in a game of dog and bone. we were seriously into it for the next two freaking hours. imagine playing dog and bone for two hours! i really hated that stupid game but i had an OPEN MIND and now, i love that dumb game. aww man, i'm like addicted to it. ok, anyway, there was once during the game when my number was called and i ran up to the 'bone' and when i thought it was a great opportunity, i grabbed it and ran. i was just reaching home when this dude tried to tap me, but instead he kinda pushed and i fell, sliding on my knees across the floor like some rock star. nice. then everyone saw and went "ORHHHHH". then one of my teammates shouted out, "cry! cry!" then i stood up, buried my eyes in clarissa's shoulders and started to fake cry. ahahahah. that was fun.

third day had no highlights at all cus all we did was have a short talk, packed up and made our way back to singapore. what i really hated about the camp was that they kept making us wait. wait for the sound system to set up, wait for evryone to settle down, wait for everything. we did so much waiting that it turned the whole camp boring, with only the exception of the games. i like the talks though, they actually made sense unlike Catholic camp into school where they talk so much for soo long and soo nonsensically that nothing gets into our heads. oh, and guess what happened, at the start, kimberly ho asked me to be her partner. WOW, i was shocked. haha, in the end, she dumped me for another girl and left me with this girl who totally freaked me out. hey, i did try to make friends with her but yeah, she freaked me. so i hung out with clarissa a lot even though we were supposed to stick to our groups and clarissa was not in my group. and i hung out with pao a bit too and gotten NEW friends! wow, the camp was to help us BOND and lookie here, we totally ditched each other and met new people. haha, but i don't mind, i like it as it is, so just let it be. yay
