what a wonderful sound!
saturday was ri gep open house! gosh it was freakin' fun man, leading a bunch of IDIOTIC IDIOTIC primary 6 shits around and enduring their bullshit and extremely irritating playfulness. but it was fun, sigh. i was enjoying myself showing off and haolianing about my beautiful school to those jabronis.then for the closing of the open house, i was so worried that there'd only be one venue for both yanshuo and i to speak, which would mean that one of us wouldn't have a chance to do it. but thankfully, both of us still got a chance to speak. the first speech that i'd ever done where i wasn't nervous at all. really, not a trace of shaking or shivering, i just delivered the speech and it was done! no tossing and turning around in bed, like yanshuo claimed he went through the night before. anyway, i think i did okay, so that's that, i enjoyed giving the speech.
now i know what people mean when they say 'the sweet sound of applause'. oh my goodness, especially when it's all directed at you, only you. it's so overwhelming and oh gosh what a fantastic feeling, i didn't know how to react so i was standing there stupidly, soaking in the sweet, sweet sound.
so after that i rushed off to church in andrew's dad's car for a programme called 'the next level', for students taking the 'o's and the 'a's this year. learnt quite a lot! haha, i guess it was very fruitful. i even enjoyed the long, long time i spent waiting for my parents to pick me after they came back from their national day preview, *insert big big smile.
there was the barbecue on sunday! running around stealing food from everywhere with everyone yelling at me and saying i'm a useless piece of shit and i'm 'DUO GUAN XIAN SHI'. wahh, chinese gosu. ooh it was fun, though some of my stupid health-conscious cousins were reduced to nibbling on carrot sticks. cannot bring themselves to gorge on all the heavily burnt but extremely tasty food, you see. ehh, actually, carrot sticks are quite nice, HAHA.
okay prelims are in four weeks. FOUR WEEKS. and i've only done half of geog and half of bio. oh no.
seeya!
