post-CmPS event plus back to school
Monday, January 5, 2009 ? 0 Atashinchi ?
Yesterday's CmPS event went quite well despite the rain (twice!). We managed to talk to quite a lot of people and got quite good responses for the pledgeboard (full!) as well as the beach cleanup. The story-telling...hmmm...but i guess small group discussions allow for more personal interaction... Haha but it was sooooo tiring. After i got home at like around 7 plus i just showered, ate dinner, washed the dishes (forced by my mum) then plonked down into my bed at 9 plus and slept all the way till morning. Ok i woke up at 3 plus but then not much point doing anything so i just went back to sleep. But today was still kind of sleepy. I think the whole CmPS group is really tired too, cos trina was also sleeping, which is really rare, and we saw ivalyn sleeping during SL talk, and jiahe also blogged about being sleepy in school! Haha i kind of slept through SL talk cos doesn't really affect us plus very boring, all about why you should do Service Learning and stuff. -_- I slept through the part of discipline talk where the teachers talked about whatever representing the school and why we should follow school rules but woke up when the prefects talked about the details of the rules. After all, it doesn't hurt to know what to avoid, even though i am the super legal kind of student, what with my 2 inch above the ankle socks and whatever. Principal talk was ok too.

Ah and this term i ended up sitting next to Wingyan AGAIN! I was kind of hoping to get a seatmate who has a slightly lower GPA. :P I am not even asking for someone with a lower GPA than me, just, you know, not 3.9 something like Wingyan. I am destined to live in demoralisation for the rest of this term i guess. Tomorrow first block is PE. SOCCER MODULE. This is such a terrible start to the year. Why on earth do we get soccer for the first lesson?! I will probably die, cos i almost didn't exercise at all throughout the entire hols, and i still have really really bad muscle aches from CmPS on Sunday. Can't even walk fast now. *cries* I hope i don't get too muddy and stuff, especially since this is the rainy season and we have first block for every PE lesson.

Oh yeah i shall go back to CmPS for a while. Cos i seriously need to rant about the terrible weather! In the early afternoon it started showering but luckily it stopped after a few minutes. But it still ruined all the streamers and some of the balloons. So we have to replace a lot of the decorations and in the middle of doing so it started raining again! And this time it was really really bad. I got thoroughly wet all the way to the skin. Even though all of us brought a shirt to change out of it was still quite uncomfortable. Especially since we didn't bring extra pants, so my jeans did not dry out for some unknown reason and thus were stuck to my legs for the entire day. It was an extremely unpleasant sensation. Plus i had to wring water out of my hair and even when i got home it hadn't dried out cos my hair was in a ponytail. Mr Jeremy from NParks came exactly at the rain part so he saw us in the most unglam states and practically did not see us in action at all. And wanting was obsessing over his high-tech looking camera. :)

I got super bad muscle aches (i think i mentioned this just now) in the front of my shins, back of my thighs, plus around my waist. Weird combi. Yesterday my heels hurt, but today it changed to my arches. I suppose it is my own fault to not wear running shoes, but my jeans are cut for my slightly-high-but-sensible-heeled shoes, and i didn't want the legs to drag on the ground and get even muddier than they needed to be. And furthermore it is easier to get sand out of normal shoes than out of running shoes. We are probably going to repeat this event in march hols and Nature Week and maybe in june during the NParks Beach Fiesta or whatever event it is called. In the meantime shall focus on the video, as well as our report, which i forsee will be very painful indeed. Haha but the NParks guy is quite impressed with our work i think, and yeah he is supposed to email me with the details about his volunteer program or something. Trina and i will probably not take up an SL project if we join this volunteer thingy for ECP. (And thus the sleeping without much effort to stay awake during today's SL talk. :P)

I think i shall stop here, cos i decided to start the year well and actually start sleeping early (relatively) for a change. And need to mug for Chem and Math, which i haven't really started on. :( Jiayou to myself!
