Mixed emotions
Today has been a day of mixed feelingss..
Happy:-
The magazine is finally out!! after one whole year of slogging, we've finally seen the fruit of our labour.. this will not be done without the help of many many people. I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to all of you!
Claryce: for designing the whole magazine and putting up with my many demands.
Meiyen: for tolerating my nonsense and accommodating my requests most of the time.
Weida: for helping me to send emails and informing me so that i can follow up on them.
Wanling: for helping me with the camp marketing so that i can have time for the mag.
Reuben n Eileen: for helping me to compile everything and teaching me how to use InDesign. and to eileen, i wun forget the funny moments that we had when reuben left for his lessons.. hahaha
Harrison: for coming up with the articles which were so interesting.
Others: for giving me support whenever i need them and providing me with ideas.
On the whole, it's really great job done!! n i would love to work with you guys once again!! to be honest, after spending one whole year on this project, i've felt kinda attached to it and would love to stay on to help out for future issues... hopefully, i will be able to do so la and i seriously hope that i can do it..

Quiet Saturday
Heyo! Suddenly feel like blogging and here it goes...
Today's been a quiet day and I spent most of my time at home... Strangely, i'm always out during the weekdays but on weekends, i'll always find myself at home.. haha.. on weekdays, my mum always hope that i'll be home early and hopefully eat dinner at home while on weekends, i hope to eat dinner at home but she's always out... haha... so ironical...
Spent quite a bit of time today reading the final installation of Harry Potter... due to my slow reading speed, i haven't finished the book yet... and i'm not even three quarters through.. haha... after indulging in the magical world of harry potter.. i went to watch soccer alone at Brekos..
Why am I alone??
the answer is simple.. i cant find anyone to watch with me... i've exhausted all the possible soccer watching kakis and even tried those who dun watch soccer... the efforts were futile... haha... so i ended up alone... wanted to go to Walas but it was so packed that there were not even 1 seat for me.. so went to brekos instead...
the match was Sunderland vs Liverpool... being a sunderland fan, i hope that they will win but the goal at the 33th min, my heart sank... there was a clear difference in quality between the two teams and liverpool's superiority was evident.. so the final score:
Sunderland 0 - 2 Liverpool
(Sisokko, Voronin)
after the final whistle... i juz headed home and here i am now... blogging abt it.. hahaa
no doubt i was alone.. but i felt at peace throughout the day... it's been long since i've spent time like that alone on a saturday night... haha... it's so tranquil and quiet... haha...
so yup... it's been a nice day..
take care peepsss... :)
Arts Bash
Hey!! it's been an eventful night manzz.. haha.. juz reached home...
arts bash was really a blast... haha.. there was the fireworks display as well as the pageant... and sarah won the pageant... after the bash, it's like really the finale of this year's FOP and i'll be looking forward to the next MC.. hahaa...
it's like the first time i sent drunk pple home and it's like very seh to send them home la... hahaha... faintssss... that's the reason y i'm still awake now when i'm supposed to reach home at least 2 hours earlier.. haha.. however, i cant leave my frenz in the lurch.. so i sent them back before walking back myself... haha...
it's really a happening nite..
Cheerios!!
stress management?
the first week FINALLY ENDED!!!
it's like how busy for the whole week... i'm rushing like mad for the magazine and was trying to put up with those boring lectures... and trying to ask favours from everyone... arghhh.. it's a terrible week!!
sorry for mia-ing for the whole week and not joining you all for lunch... i'm really sorry.. but this week's been very busy for me... i'll make up for it in the coming weeks k?
seriously, sometimes i dun even noe wad i'm doing la.. so yea..
n i love all of u...!!
Recollections
Was reading through my previous posts last nite and was greatly amused by the ever-pessimistic tone of my posts. never had i known that i'm so pessimistic and depressed previously. but guess i had changed back to my old chirpy self, coupled with my lame jokes and "not funny" jokes.
hmmm.. life's been great recently and i am feeling veri happy!! after leading 2 ogs, i'm starting to feel young.. haha.. as if like i'm a freshie also.. watching then having fun, chit chatting abt lessons, bitching abt pple, reminds me of my freshie year. haha.. it juz seems like yesterday la.. hahaha.... so so hapssss...
for some apparent reason, i feel that i'm closer to my tartarz group than my tehgaos... probably it's the bond that's shared amongst us ba.. since we stayed together for the whole of arts camp and i guess that the bond is stronger ba.. or that i'm jaded from all the camps as before o week, i've gone for at least 2 more camps and the feeling isn't good... physically and mentally, i'm quite tired during o week and it seems that i'm juz going through the motions.. haiz.. these are probably the reasons why i din perform as good as i'm during arts camp ba.. in a sense that i'm not as close to them... but i think it's alright la.. cuz i'm going to graduate in a year's time and wad's impt is that harrison and co will maintain contact with them.. and hopefully most of them will return for next year's arts camp and o week...
on a last note, i've got things to tell u guys....
i love you guys..!! i wun forget all of u!!
cheerioss
nostalgia..
o week finally ended on saturday with rag as the finale... i felt that i was back to my freshie year when i saw my freshies enjoying themselves and chilling out together n playing games together...
it seems like yesterday that i was a freshie.. i was in Sashimi when i was a freshie and my behaviour was nowhere near to how i behave now during camps... i was quite antisocial and juz did the bare minimum but it was a complete new experience to mi. since then, i had made up my mind and decided to go back for the coming year's FOP... this was the turning point of my life...
i went for soci camp as an OGL but i'm virtually invisible during the whole camp... i had leg problems during the camp and i din really get to spend time with the freshies.. in my own opinion, i feel that i had not done a bad job with the OG as i still see the whole group hanging out together now... and that was my virgin attempt as an OGL.
i went back with my Sashimizz for O week but we're in Tailgate... we 'deflected' to T house cuz of bobby and i was arrowed by him to be an OGL.. i took on the challenge but ultimately, i think that i had did a bad job with this. cuz the whole og disintegrated right after the end of o week.. i was feeling so guilty about it.. n i started trying to keep in contact with the freshies as often as possible... in the end, i managed to retain some of them like serene, aaron, harrison, shu hui.. but i feel that i could have done a better job...
this year, i went for arts camp as an OGL again... it was my first time at arts camp and the experience is totally fantastic!! my whole group of councilors are rojak... it's like pple from all over the place, eg the 26th MC, sashimi, lacoste, tailgate... and initially, i think that our dynamics will be damn off.. but ironically, we clicked off well and we're like how tight... i really love this group of freshies and i sapped strength from them.. it was so amazing to have them as my freshies... and i'm drawing strength from my councilors and freshies... and without any doubt, we've won the best OG despite being the lousiest house...
last came o week... i was like how excited for o week as it'll be my last n final o week.. but the excitement died down after the first day and we're like facing challenges and stunts everyday.. the o comm is completely shit la... i believed that plenty of programmes are being cancelled with each passing day... and as the saying goes, "shit rolls down the hill", we're like trying to come up with contingencies everyday la... EVEN the finale is cocked up... who the hell will gather the whole camp in a carpark when there are vehicles coming in n out all the time... it's totally off la... damn that pig...
but i'm glad to say that i've got very good house ics n ogls... the other ogls are Anhong, Yenghong, Ching Feng and Doris.. we are like the tightest bunch of ogls in the whole camp la... with all the cheering sessions n the yohos extorting sessions.. haha.. it's really an enjoyable time with them.. that's the councilors part la... but on the whole, i tink my freshie councilors are alright only but... my senior councilors performed out of my expectations like Ambrose, Harrison and Rebacca... without them, i would have died halfway through the camp.. they are like taking care of all the micro management of the og while i'm responsible for cheering n stuff... haha... but on the whole, i think that TehGao is great la..!! i really hope that there wun be a repeat of last year's Tailgate and i hope that the freshies can stay together for their whole uni life, juz like jer, mi, yan, wanz, layz, jingyi, etc...
ok la.. enough for now first... losing the inspiration to talk liao... hahaha... nitezzz
