okay since my tuition teacher forgot to come (and i rushed home and chiong-ed zuowen for nothing), i shall grab this opportunity to post about the very.. eventful week.
first things first, last weekend was just simply awesome.
it was one of the best weekends i've ever had in my entire life. i still remember it quite vividly in my mind - saturday: 205 gathering @ siloso/vivo, sunday: a thrilling "retail therapy".
class gathering 4
OHMMM. (inside joke!)
the gathering at sentosa organised for our very dear yunge was splendid. i had a really great feeling about it the night before, and it turned out better than i thought. it started with a commotion at harbourfront mrt, where everyone was waiting for others to arrive, etc. then we headed to kopitiam in vivocity for lunch.
something really embarrassing happened during lunch; a man selling tissue was "patrolling" the food court, and wanglaoshi assumed that he was the cleaner so she passed her whole tray of food to him. then she realised that man was actually asking her to buy the packets of tissue. jolene and shannon saw it and burst out laughing like hell, and soon after the 3 occupied tables knew what happened LOL. wanglaoshi was so embarrassed her face was priceless, haha.
then we headed to siloso @ sentosa. the first part wasnt really a get together cos a few people went to cycle with wanglaoshi while the rest stayed behind for ball games, which abruptly ended due the hot sun. i can remember that chenxi was sitting on some rock that made me really amazed. the whole point of going to siloso was to get in contact with sand, and yet she was treating it like some horrible enemy and taking a rock as a shield. LOL. it was so funny. then everyone just sat in a circle and we started talking about stupid things. it really felt like in the past.
soon, somehow the nearby resort lured a few of us in, and we were taken aback by the amazing facilities and ignorance they have; we played in the arcade, billiard and table tennis although we werent allowed to haha. that was the best part of the gathering at sentosa, but sadly it didnt involve the group of us.. but yeah. i had my first try at table tennis and i managed to hit the ball consecutively for 3 times hahaha. and it was damn hilarious because we the inexperienced people kept hitting the ball either too hard, or out of angle such that the ball always flew to the other table and disrupted the men's game. it was a killer.
halfway a few of us left including wanglaoshi, and then we went back to vivocity with initial plans of catching a movie but the seats werent very good, so we went roaming around for a suitable restaurant instead. we went to this restaurant called "the mussel guys" which was quite posh and had an amazing view of the sea/sun. the food was really really good too, but the only thing that held us back was the money problem. the bill, rather. nanyang girls really put what they've learnt into good use, i realised. whatever that we did was unbelievable; people starting counting compound and simple interest, and in the end we came out with a conclusion that it was compound interest and we spent the whole half an hour deluding ourselves into the math - reality world. yunge yuka rosanne and i were laughing the whole way while the other half of the table was doing it. the bill was $163.15 altogether, and there was $1 short all because of gst and we made a huge fuss out of it, HAHAH. it was a really exhilarating experience.
oh oh then we headed up to the rooftop pools (?) where people stick their feet in and walk around like children. at least that was what we did. vanessa calls it the freaking niao4 shui3 which totally made people laugh their guts out, but we continued being in the water anyway. it was really fun, waddling about in the water and jumping about. i think we made a lot of noise but who cares haha.
went windowshopping for a while and reached home at around 11, and surprisingly i didnt get a scolding lol.
the gathering was super fun; it brought back memories of us being a class during the past 2 years. its really sad that most of us or at least i myself didnt cherish all the moments we've had together enough, and now i truly understanding the meaning of “当你失去了它,你才懂得怎样珍惜。”time can never turn back, but you know, at least i've got precious memories that will be kept close to my heart. 205 is and will be the best class i have in my whole life(:
and ultimately, this gathering is for yunge who's migrating to US this sunday.
having one less member of 205'08 will feel really incomplete, but rest assured that the 205 spirit will always be with you, and every other 205er.♥
here are the group photos we took: the rest are uploaded on facebook(:

205 whoosh!♥
sunday: outing with the Ls
im glad i didnt let the fatigue that conjured up from the past few nights of late turning ins overwhelm me, because this outing was goodddd.
first stop was lido, where we watched a freaky spooky (insert any adj that describes a ghost show) but meaningful movie. "the uninvited" was really really good; it had a good plot with a good twist although the things and creatures that came into sight werent that pleasant.. heh. i recommend this movie to EVERYONE out there. :D after blocks you should really find thrills in life by doing things like this, hahaha.
next, we went to raffles city and somehow started window shopping. first looking at clothes, then trying them on. its really amazing to think of the vast difference in our first and latest outings; last time we used to visit places like the arcade.. and now we're doing shopping HAHAHA. girls. anyway, it was really quite a unique experience, finding out about which clothes are suitable for each of us, then camwhoring illegally in the changing rooms. haha we somehow spent 2-3 hours doing this and then headed down to soup spoon for a rest. :D
like loyee, i finally understood what "retail therapy" really meant.
yes we should do more of this next time!♥
monday: billiard @ jolene's & guitar lesson
billiard was exhilarating LOL. watching people playing it and playing it yourself are two really different things; lost touch with the sticks and the balls since mr goh brought us out, so i was really noob at it hahah. and i even went to the extent of climbing onto the table to shoot the ball in heh. sadly i cant find my phone limewire so i cant upload unglam photos of shannon and jolene ): yesyes. dinner was good and so was guitar lesson. although the teacher commented that my fingers were too short D: and both of them burst into laughter. omg it was really embarassing but luckily there was only one other guy in the room lol.
hmm.. what else?
oh yes. 2.4 on tuesday was.. i dont know. nerve-wrecking. it didnt feel right; i think i ran one less round and my timing is bad but compared to last time was a great improvement LOL. should really build up on my stamina, no more sleeping-till-noon weekends!! a hell load of stuff happened this week, but im glad they're all over. got back biology, and i think im quite disappointed although i mugged the entire night before away. ):
i think my MSG is going to hit like really low this time. i need to pull my socks up. its gonna be hard, but i have to do it.
tomorrow's nyss performance; hopefully we wont screw it up lol. and choir after school, yay cant wait(:
