} aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

last two days have been fun. been very involved in the gep project thing, hahah.

my mums ticked off cos i treat the house like a hotel. leave early, come back late..just to eat dinner & sleep. yep. oh well.

yesterdayyy

v. hectic day. in the morning, my mum wake me up at 7 and told me, 'we're going to make your ic now.' wtf. ok. so washed up and everything, went to ica.. there was this long long long queue cos apparently the place doesn't open so early. after abt 5 - 10 mins, we got in, went to the wrong floor, went to the right floor.. took photo, made ic, blah blah. the guy who took my photo was such a bitch. wth. kept smirking cos my photo turned out stupid...farker.

after that i was supposed to go to school to collect my air ticket and settle my visa, but it was only about 9 and ms evelyn was only coming at 10. so... went back home. sat down for about 5 mins. left again.

reached school at arnd 10, just in time. found out that i had to settle my travel insurance first. uh oh. big problem. at this point i have to give a big thank you to ms evelyn for helping me with my insurance.. settled it within an hour!! wow. i owe her my port trip, seriously.

faxed the application form in the general office. at this point i also have to give a big huge thank you to novita who kept me company at that time even though she could have left first... *touched* :') were trying to hide our handphones .. were smsing evelyn and making calls and blahh. my mum kept calling, wth. just at the right moments too -- when teachers were walking past. great.

ms evelyn got a connection in the travel agency so we got a reply in less than an hour, YAY. it was about 11 then.. embassy closes at 12! so we rushed to my mum's car, she drove us to the embassy...not really fast.. cos my mum isnt like my dad who aspires to be a F1 racer.

so we reached the embassy... met novita's mum there. v. nice person. :)) settled the visa pretty quickly. will collect it on the 16th, i think.

reached school at 12, so we had 1 more hour of training. was feeling useless. novita and clarissa were doing most of the thinking and programming.. gloria is the main robot builder... so that leaves me the extra member? :| hope i can be more 'useful' tomorrow.

went for lunch with phoenix, whose dad treated us. yah. as usual. ate at mos burger... yum. then went to some art shop thingy cos phoenix wanted to buy some 'puffy paint' thingy. she tried it on her bag, tried using a hand dryer to dry it, but kept failing. :| time was ticking, so me and gloria left first.

went back to help savina etc with their group poster, for gep. (gep involvement! hahah. not funny.) halfway thru suhui the distraction came, told me the IPW video is finished (WHAT ?!) so i went down to see it. gloria went to see it too. but me and suhui stayed behind to touch up a bit more, gloria went back up first.

after that i ran back to arc room. sort of. not sure if i really ran or not. more like.. fast walking? dunno. anyway, went back to find the arc room all dark. no shoes outside. so i thought, 'THEY LEFT AND FORGOT ABOUT ME??' then i realised the door wasnt locked. wth. so i went in.

emily the lamer tried to scare me. yah right. went in to see everybody crowded around the computer.. it was a weird situation cos the room was really dark and the only light was coming from the com.. sort of creepy, bluish... it was half scary, half amusing.. didnt know how to react. found out the com died out, poster is gone, so i did another one. oh well.

found out that the security guard has been after the group. so they switched off the lights and put the shoes inside (sorry, arc rm rules), pretending we already left. and we had to keep whispering. it was...torturous.

did the poster, finished it. savina was super panicky? like, wth? must have told her to relax 871236 times per minute. she was scared that mr tan was angry lah.. but ahberdeen of cos he isnt.. or at least..when he went up to arc room, he seemed to be in an ok mood. anyway. there was a lot of running to and fro between st michs and st raphaels.. cos they had to give mr tan the stuff to print, etc.

at first try, MET said my poster is blah. at second try, it was 'better'! MUAHAHAHAHAHAH.

actually i felt kind of bad for him lah. i mean, he's been late for dates with his wife so many bloody times.. and it's all cos of us? its so guiltifying. his wife must be a very, very, very, very, very, very, very nice person. patient too.

after a while mr tan chased us home.. me, gloria and suhui walked together. started singing the 99 bottles of Coke song (we modified it), but got drunk after only 2 bottles, so we stopped. i tried continuing .. but we were so high it was quite hard. suhui left the group first, cos she went to tp interchange. then glor went to the toilet at a clinic. then we walked to 'our' bus stop together.

reached home at around... 9.30?? was surprised that nobody called, and my dad wasnt angry at all. oh well. just my luck. heh heh heh.

today

was woken up by an sms from yufang. thought it was my alarm, but soon realised it was a message.. ("what kind of wacko sends smses THIS early??") it was around 5.30?? she just told me to tell suhui that she cant make it for any IPW this week cos she's going to hong kong until the weekend. turned out she was already on the way to the airport. (so THATS why she had to sms me so damn early.)

forgot to tell her that the video is actually done. oops. oh well.

then i turned off my alarm cos i was fully awake already anyway. at around 6.15 i washed up.. at 7 my mum drove me to school. (she insisted.) saw savina, emily and diana standing around near a van. went over to them.... turned out they got chased out by the security guard. AGAIN. wth is his problem man??!!

emily said that he was half-naked.. shaving.. and just told them that NOBODY told him that they are coming to school today. then he asked them, 'how do you know the gate is open??' (which is a very durr question. but nvm.) wtf is his problem lah. but after delle and stef came, we all came back in anyway.

the group + diana worked on their model.. and i fiddled with the camera. it was all smudgy so i started cleaning it. then i cleaned my hp too. it becomes all dull if i dont wipe it at least 10 times a day. discovered that it already has A LOT OF SCRATCHES. aaaaaahhhhhhhh.

well. MET came late. as expected. but he made it, eventually. savina and emily were in sav's dad's van, while me, stef, delle and diana went on mr tan's car. his new car is so funkeh!! me and delle were playing with his weird red stuffed toy alien. playing around with the eyes and the mouth.. i took some pictures of it, yay! :D ("WHAT'S THIS??!!" -- MET, when he saw the photos.)

long ride to the NTU. played with the light switches in the car, stopped when mr tan told us not to 'destroy his car'. bahh fine. :( and he commented on how 'stressed' we must be cos we were playing with his red alien. (but he was the one who bought it first so he must be the most stressed.)

reached ntu. met up with sav & delle. (sav's dad tagged along.) set up the model, i started taking pictures... annoying thing was everyone was setting up their models too, so there were hands flying up everywhere when i took photos. wth.

managed some nice shots though... saw some funkay models there, but OF COURSE OURS IS STILL THE BEST. wahaha. rulang pri's one really rocks... they're damn good at this sort of thing man. (but OF COURSE OURS IS STILL BETTER.)

after setting up etc etc., mr tan wanted to take a grp shot before we left. so we stood around in front of the model, MET stood behind. oops, no space. so we went behind. oops, no space. some of us went back in front, but the rest didnt want to be left together with MET so they went in front too. hahaha. he expressed his wish to 'kill' us one of these days.. and went in front too..blocking others as usual.

then, just as the person taking our photo was going to click on the button..................

...crash.

stefhani crashed into the model. the career school toppled.

*split-second of silence as everyone looks and stares*

*split-second ends as people realise it's not THEIR model and therefore not THEIR problem*

*WE continued to stare in shock*

*THEN.* 'STEF!!'

*laugh laugh flurry flurry*

hahaha. it was so damn corny. gave up on taking the group picture in the end, OH WELL.

went back to school.. this time savina and diana went on sav's dad's van, while the rest went on MET's car. someone mentioned SHREK, and then he suddenly commented, 'shrek? i love shrek! it's the best cartoon .. blah blah blah blah.'

(but i agree lah. i want to watch also.)

then he said that we should go for celebration movie on saturday after the prize giving.. cos he seemed SO SURE that we are going to win. then i told him that we are supposed to chop wood on saturday. hahah. *bubble burst* backfired by his own plan.

but the prize giving might be in the afternoon.. so everyone can still go for the movie. :)) but its harry potter. wth. why cant we watch shrek 2. :|

reached school, loaded up pictures onto the com, did coverpage for gep peeps. mr tan was late for a date with his wife. again. God bless them.

went for lunch at macs with emily, delle, savina, stef, diana. then diana had to meet her mother, the rest went to emily's house to finish up on their project. i went back home. durr.

then i watched tv, went to plaza sing with parents & brother, played at arcade. i suck at KoF now.... :(( can barely win a single round, WTH!! i got to practise more... then my mum dragged me off (NOOOOOOO) to some shop.. to look at berms.. but not nice one lah. then we bought bakkwa. ate all the free samples. went home. slacked.

ok. that was such a long entry. grrrh. i hate long entries. but nvm. going to pack for tomorrow's sleepover.
