I have the best friends in the entire world! Thanks for encouraging me abt the last post, made me feel a whole lot better. Jiaquan, mandy and V, you guys are so sweet. =) Dont know what i did to deserve ppl like you...

Camp turned out to be... fun. Haha. I was just being paranoid yes. The seniors are super nice and friendly, amazing bunch of people. My group had 3 girls 3 guys (me weixuan shirley yuchen vinod shijun). While it wasnt an instant click kinda thing, we got along well enough. Learnt a whole bunch of hokkien cheers, which i cant pronounce properly cos i just dont have the ah lian attitude. We stayed overnight at underwater world, which was SO cool. Unforntunately i missed the fright night, which i hear was fantastic. Had beach games, felt kinda bad for vinod who had to carry me for the wrestling in the water game, cos i'm so heavy... =( a modified version of the kel chair game (played in the water!), and lots and lots of throwing the seniors into the sea! Woah, that looked quite jialat, the covered them with sand first, even into the guys boardshorts k. But very funny! They did a banana cheer before smashing a sand mound representing the guy's 'banana'. Gross but amusing.

hmm lets see what else i remember...

We stayed at Raffles Hall. The rooms are really small... but they are quite decent otherwise. Wouldnt mind staying in hall, if mom and dad can afford it. Argh, cant really remember things in chronological order so shall mention random incidents. Yuchen (aka glasses boy, haha) and vinod kept singing stayin alive and doing goofy dance moves. GRIN. They're funny. Honestly, without them the group would have been really quiet and boring. Weixuan and shirley are really nice, so glad to have them in my group, would have been lost without them. Abit worried that id be alone at first cos they came together, and i was afraid i would be the outsider. But fears unfounded!

ok, chinablack! I like the decor there, its quite nice. The whole place was NUS people, even later on, so it was a really safe environment. Almost like mass dance in a dark, smoky room. Felt very protected and looked after by the seniors. The music was quite alright, but towards the end it became techno and completely undancable. I cant dance, but then again, neither can alot of people i realise. And anyway, its so dark and crowded that you cant be seen dancing like an idiot. Some people got drunk. Strengthened my resolve never to get drunk. Throwing up on someone isnt very sociable in my opinion, and i would be too malu to ever face that person again. After that, went to Swensens, woah did you know they have a 24 hour outlet now?!

My secret pal! SP is this game we played, you're blind folded and led to this place where you get to talk to your blind folded secret pal for abt 15 mins. At first i was kinda disappointed with my sp, he seemed to be unable to make intelligent conversation, and was clearly more comfortable in chinese. Was really running out of things to say so i asked him what he liked the most about himself. And you know what he said? His health! I was like ... ok... But he turned out to be quite a nice guy, seems like a sweet and shy kinda guy. On the first day he said that he didnt quite know how to talk to girls cos he just got out of army! Haha! i found that cute.

Now im actually looking forward to school. I'm still a little afraid, but considerably less. Will actually know some people there, will actually know my way around science fac, will actually know some silly cheers (my favourite one is "how to kill a duck" which i will gladly demonstrate upon request). CANT WAIT!
