hzz. actually i should be on my way to cell like right now (18:02), but sloth has taken over me and i want to just bum around at home. i guess i actually do require some strange innate and unconscious sort of mental preparation to get off my lazy ass and make my way to church. hmm i feel slightly remorseful, but oh wells.
let's see let's see... monday tuesday wednesday thursday friday. not surprisingly i have little to no recollection of theis week's happenings.
i love the song i want you by the beatles. just a few words strung together purposefully to create an awesome tune.
monday was happy TOK seminar day! wasted the whole day at acsi and ate prata and some strange dish that the lady recommended by pointing at some dude's plate and yoghurt. the keynote speaker i couldn't agree with. and the group discussion was pointless, to say the least. nothing gained, everything ventured. the gl was constantly being overshadowed by b and c, who were taking turns to lead the group. haha
thursday we had pw consultation. more spoonfeeding. having taken his own time to get to the room, we ended 15 minutes into chem lecture. darn. i heart chem! oh and there was a really sarky teacher who made a scathing remark at how students couldn't do anything for themselves because we didn't switch on the lights in the room. uh hello that's why we sat near the window so that we could conserve energy. but no you had to misconstrue it as something borne out of sloth.
and there was CF! YAY! haha it was awesome. during the game, i had my own little byzantine empire because i couldn't act the opposite of energetic. hmm speaks volumes about me and my inability to act. and worship was releasing? haha what t said was true. (: not a failure! word was hilarious, what with constant reminders to remember the iceberg and spasmodic acting. nurture was fun but i'm kinda stuck in a group with my enjoying everyone's company save for one. then again few people do but i feel bad and hopefully we'll all learn to accept him and his dogmatic ways. haha had a lot of debates about the strangest things and further explored the realms of metaphysics. in the end s was strangely grateful for stepping in for him and i was all i like arguing. haha. yeah went home later than usual because of somebody. by 7 minutes. wow. took a cab back; was meant to do something fun but oh wells.
ooh teachers' day was a tad of a drag. woke up at the early hour of 0515 to get ready for school at 0630! poo. had to prepare flowers to sell for teachers' day. soaking your fingers into ice cold water and then proceeding to heft buckets of half-rotting flowers down 2 flights of stairs and then getting ignored while trying to sell my shizz. quite rude i must say. granted you wouldn't want a cheery person bordering on the line of obnoxious to woo you first thing in the morn, but certainly a little grace would be appreciated. received a happy text. had to decline though ): all in though, amidst the drama and the weariness, we made a great grand total of $156.85!! w00t! hooray for aggressive selling and arm pulling tactics. yuzz. although there were a few complaints about the quality of the flowers. and there was one dude who bought >20dollars of flowers.
the concert was cheesy at best. couldn't see much from the illegal vending spot that we set up in a corner of the hall. the band played doraemon! the conductor hammed it up for the crowd with his macarena-esque antics. and the dance was alright, nothing new. someone was out of synch though.
anyways went to the vg to give the leftovers to various teachers. quite fun. ate loads of satay and smoked salmon. seal girl and i chose a bunch of random teachers. like the math lecturer, who was all who are you people? and ksl was all i've never received a flower before! the cip teacher was the best. left me in goosebumps. told me that even though she didn't know me personally, but through the cip project saw that i was much different from other people. in a good way. it is a gift, so use it. and gwee introduced himself to mother in a potentially saboteus bid. teehee.
