Reading a classmate's blog (yes Kaixuan yours) and realised that I shouldn't be so lazy and just dump pictures relating to this June holidays. I think I should spend some time and effort to write them down heh.

Highlight of June holidays will be most definitely SLC, perhaps that might even be the highlight of my secondary four life. Still remmember after the first facilitator training, Shanna and I had totally no idea how facs will bond since we all seems so awkward and uncomfortable and preferred staying with our own groups of friends, ie Sec 3 HC guys, Sec 4 HC guys, Sec 3 NY girls and Sec 4 NY girls. LOL. Second facilitator training felt super awkward too, though it was kinda fun writing action papers with other fellow head facs and FIRST TIME USING GOOGLE DOCS. I finally experienced the awesome-ness of google docs haha. I guess it was during the third facilitator training and after it which we bonded a lot more, trying out the icebreakers and orientation games was damn damn fun, and then after the training where several other girls facs and I got kinda pissed with the guys. Cause we were tired + damn hungry and the guy facs wanted to eat together after fac training but continued nua-ing and playing their own game. Lihoung, Pingghee and I totally walked out on them and we started feeling bad when they asked us why we choose to leave and asked us to come back haha. Was damn scared the guy facs thought I got attitude problem or something. But after that was cool, ate lunch, and played dare or double dare, murderer and truth or truth. Which bonded us quite well I guess?

Oh and I remember after the first facilitator training I thought my YAA will be super dead and sian and was very sad about it. BUT IT'S TOTALLY NOT TRUE LA, like I think YAA is one of the most enthu assemblies? The YAA fac outing (SWENSEN'S ICE CREAM BUFFET FTW) we had before the convention itself was the very first fac assembly outing ever held, and then YAA got the best action paper, and I swear their grand finale was one of the best too, managed to hyped up the atmosphere really well, and then our I must say quite successful YAA outing to east coast park! Cycling ftw! And gosh all the memories during SLC with YAA! And the faculty which I followed during orientation games (Pertinax) GOT THE MOST EXCITED FACES CARDS WHOOTS AWESOME. Then the epic budget allocation meeting and all the assembly and community meetings. Note passing ftw man. Damn fun to pass notes and equally fun to receive epic notes. Omg my son and daughters are seriously epic la. Wait not epic, more of horny. Haha.

And all the epic dinners after each convention days. Omg the poolside cafe auntie and Jarren. (Y) And then Pertinax tricking me into believing that Zhengjie's birthday was the next day, so much that I actually teared lol. And the silent dice game after dinner, Tongwei's "Shut up la, you know him meh?", Caleb's super epic stories and his consoling-pat-on-the-shoulder handprint, gay club's epic dinner at kap, indian poker. All the memories ahhh.

Am really really glad that 17slc facs weren't as scandalous as 16slc facs, and though I wouldn't say that we are super duper bonded, I'm glad that we're more or less comfortable with everyone. And it's really true, how SLC brings out the ugly sides of some people. I would never see this particular person the same way again, I can't believe how this person actually managed to not only annoy the hell out of me, but even advisors could feel that way too. But at the same time, I see really REALLY nice sides of new people I made friends with. One person I would really like to shout out to is JANE! OMG YOU ARE SERIOUSLY AWESOME. Not sure if you'll see this, but I've told you this before, you have one damn good personality. And I still don't see you as a secondary 3 at all. Another shout out is PINGGHEE (though I knew you since secondary 1 already haha), you don't know how glad I am that you're in SLC to experience all these with me and not feel weird zihighing during wushu about SLC haha, and for still being you after the whole convention and everything. You are really one great friend to have.

17SLC was seriously one roller coaster experience. Oh yea and staying over at Shanna's house the night before Day 4. HER HOUSE IS JUST. I CAN'T DESCRIBE IT. UNREAL. Yea okay. And then how I burned and crashed the night after Day 4, slept from 1am-5pm. Woke up, checked my Facebook to discover that there was a fac taohui outing at 3pm, epic shit la. I know to some outsiders SLC seem overrated and everything, and they don't get the hype about it, it's something really indescribable, that one has to experience it themselves to understand all these emotions. I don't regret choosing SLC over BSP camp (just like last year), and really, the 17SLC memories will live on.

31st May - 3rd June ♥ 17SLC facilitators ♥ YAA ♥ Pertinax ♥ Fortis ♥ Inspirante ♥

So Week 1 was just all SLC, and first half of Week 2 was Wushu Camp and second half was more outings haha.

Wushu Camp, it was really eventful too, still remember how rojak our planning was before, and I honestly felt super bad for completely neglecting wushu camp planning cause of SLC, and felt super screwed up for the camp too cause we weren't THAT prepared, and at the same time, felt super tired throughout the whole camp, must be the fatigue accumulated from SLC. Remember dozing off really badly a few times during camp, sleeping on the floor, on the wooden bench, and even on gym mats. But surprisingly, there were no major screw ups! And the juniors ACTUALLY ENJOYED THEMSELVES ZOMG. I think they felt more sense of belonging towards NYWS after the camp? Yay! Being the, ahem, official photographer of the camp was super fun too, never had this experience and I felt like some paparazzi taking shots of anything interesting hehe. Love my awesome mini DSLR which makes everyone goes AWWWW SO CUTE upon seeing it. What I'm super proud of the camp is the amazing race Sec 4s planned in 1+ hours (which was mostly inspired by SLC haha) and had no screw ups, and the seriously awesome banner painting, which really gave me that weird feeling towards NYWS just by watching juniors paint it. And it's heartening to see juniors expressing their immense happiness and satisfaction after the whole camp on the Facebook group and enthu-ly liking pictures on Facebook!

Then all the outings. Gosh had so many outings that I can barely remember the sequence of them. Okay that was one quite awesome outing where we wanted to watch Bogeng's band concert at esplanade but it was full house so we ended up playing pool AND I'M NOT BAD AT POOL OKAY I can actually pool quite succesfully using my left hand LOL. Anyway FAIL CLUB WITH PINGGHEE AND GUANMING AND ZHONGXUAN FTW HAHA. The beginning of that outing was just filled with me and yanying bitching epicly behind everybody heh. Then we went for Rochor taohui near bugis there OMG DAMNNN GOOD TAOHUI I SWEAR and somehow someone started all the mindfck games and we all got hooked onto it. I FINALLY UNDERSTAND SO MANY OF THOSE LAME GAMES OKAY. Oh and saying HUAT AH to a group of rickshaw uncles with tourists in it at a traffic light junction and they replying HUAT AH back to us. (Y) Then went to Bugis Junction and took my VERY FIRST NEOPRINTS IN MY LIFE WITH 7 FACS + 1.

Before all these was YAA fac outings, swensen's ice cream buffet is a damn good place to play games and have forfeits la. Though Deirdre's ice cream concoction forfeit was quite fail cause I ended up being quite interested in the queer flavous. BUT THAT HORRIBLE ZHENGJIE WITH WHIPPED CREAM AND TONS OF CHENDOL JELLY OMG GROSS MAX. Oh tried learning bridge there but kinda failed. BUT I THINK I KINDA GET IT NOW?

Hmm then recently had a 16SLC YCJ outing, which wasn't exactly successful or fail cause turn up was okay-ish. Playing monkey with beach ball at sentosa was fun, and then learning texas poker at vivocity, and screwing Xuanyu and Shannon with mindfcked games hahaha.

Then had YAA outing two days later or something? Omg never knew east coast park cycling was so fun lah! Though I still can't really cycle. Still super unstable I AM ENVIOUS OF PEOPLE WHO CAN CYCLE SO EASILY. But double biking with Jane is damn damn fun! Somehow double biking seem more fun cause not so lonely, can talk to someone while cycling. AND I LOVE THE BREEZE GOSH. It totally got my mind of issues bugging me real badly the night before the outing. And then the epic blackjack at carls junior, sitting around this circular table with a circular sofa and getting really squashed up by guys. Totally cannot move legs at all lah. It was one epic blackjack though. Hehe.

And more recently was another fac outing. SUPER SUCCESSFUL LAH THIS ONE. About 23 facs in all? Though some came after ice skating. Heh weirdly enough I ice skate better than I cycle. OH AND THE FUN THING ABOUT ICE SKATING IS WATCHING LIKE THOSE REALLY ACT COOL GUYS GO NUA CAUSE THEY CANNOT CYCLE AND START SCREAMING AND SHRIEKING LIKE GIRLS. Then watching them fall over each other haha. Shit laughed so badly that I almost lost my balance a couple of time. AND I DIDN'T FALL DOWN AT ALL THOUGH I CAN'T SKATE WELL. And then seeing guys clinging onto each other, damn cute la, BROMANCE FTW HAHA. After that was Keith Chua's condo, murderer which wasn't really successful cause people were really falling deep asleep haha, and pizzas and chicken wings and bridge and swimming omg. First time swimming in like non-swimming attire, and first time getting thrown into the pool too hehe. I was damn weird luh, like I want people to throw me into the pool yet I'm damn scared. Damn fun nevertheless.

And after all these fac outing I realised it's damn good to have someone live SUPER CLOSE TO YOU, so when you go home really late like at 11+pm you don't feel that scared and lonely. Yay shout out to lamocrappy for being my awesome bus buddy home.

Yep I guess this pretty much concludes my holidays, though I kinda get the feeling that I'm neglecting my own class during this holidays haish. Never mind there's still semester 2. (: Somehow I wonder if I should be glad or sad that I have so few homework this holidays, it's like I like feeling so free and slack and burden-free but yet I feel guilty feeling so slack cause HC people have so much homework to chiong (what finish half of the math questions in their whole textbook?), and so I wanna push myself to start mugging something but I don't know where and how to start. Haish.
