# Memories
Hey ppl. Nothing much to blog about in particular. Wanna say txs again to the people who've made my life memorable.
The council. The thirtieth. It was nice hanging out at Justin's although i will say the freezing cold wasn't too nice to bear. It was fun playing mahjong although DOA was distracting (because it didn't have sound... what were u thinking??) Txs Justin for letting us stay there and use ur kitchen to cook instant noodles. Stephanie now knows how to use the microwave oven to cook instant noodles. Yay! But really, 30th, txs for letting me hang out with u guys although im like super old and retired. Retrenched even. And some of the 31st that i know too. Txs for the hospitality. I do appreciate it cuz its really out of ur hearts that u do it and not out of compulsion. At least that's how i feel. Yup, txs for the frequent times i crashed scroom too =)
The RTs, in particular The Tropics citizens. It was nice talking to you JoJo before u leave. Yeah, its all so sudden isn't it. Well, i admit i was rather sudden too when i came. But it was nice, the squeals, i dunno how u do it. The JoJo attitude, the piano playing, the handphone-Hillsong-listening-sessions. Just doing random stuff and teaching me quite a bit about band too! Modulation and transpose. I know the difference now! Also the cutting pipecleaners from the start. "You can really cut!" Haha, comment of the year! Yup, txs for all the nonsense times we shared, the lunches together, pre-orders and the occasional sardine puffs! Eugene, txs for always welcoming me and also teaching me how to gem. Hehe. And also Rubik's and lending me ur credit card and treating me quite a few cabs and lunches. Yup, even money matters quite a lot =) But really thanks for just being a friend during my stay in TJ =) Yup, really meaningful and all the best too!
Today was meaningful in the sense that i saw my first Shakespearean (how do u spell that?) play, and it was OH MY GOSH BRILLIANT!!!!!! Yes TJC Drama Club gets my standing ovation for a play well played. A show showcased in excellence. It was a moment in life. A memory. Well, let me run through this billiant performance from my point of view.
Firstly, i paid $26 to see this production. 10 for tix, 16 for the cab fare to get there in time. Shouvik, txs SO SO MUCH for saving me that front row seat. Yes, that's how i could see u Zhiyuan and Zsa^2 =)
The opening was nice! With the whole introduction of characters. Then there was the Mariam and Actors who were really the funny people of the whole production. And then we progressed into Fairyland with some evil guy and his little minion. Ok, not little literally but yeah, it got funny from there when the love potion thing started to get screwed up.
I liked/loved the entrance of the FAIRIES!! (not to mention the accompanying FIRE!! *winks at zhiyuan*) they were so well hidden!! And the whole play really took off from there, with the set coming to life.
Donkey was funny, really funny, Lysander and Demetrius were really convincing, and funny at times. Loved the fight scene. Was funny how Zsa was sat upon too! Haha!
Yes, anymore details u should have wathced the whole production!!
But i stuck around after the production to congratulate Zsa but she never came down. Congratulated the rest on an amazing show. Went up and the rest i'll jz let those who know, know.
Went home. Went to Justin's. Did the extra Innovation Day work till about 3.30am before sleeping. Couldn't really sleep cuz it was freezing. So wore socks but it was still cold. Put my towel but it was still cold. Did i mention it was freezing? Slept at about 4 plus but couldn;t relaly sleep cuz it was freezing. Yeah, freezing! Haha, ok ok, yes it was freezing. I mean, cold, very cold like freezing? So i woke up lots and only got to sleep like one plus hours before 6am came.
Went to school for Inno Day. We got pwned/owned. The other departments were so prepared lar, with videos, prototypes, experiments, demonstrations. We were like.. blabbering about blogs and sms voting... OWNED.... But the reception was nice and got a msg from JoJo that she was in school too! Haha. Then i stoned ard.. dun quite recalled what i did. Oh yeah, went to Mind's Cafe to meet Eugene and his class! Played amny funny games, like Jungle Speed, Banana Snap, Bucket-something. And then ate there (mistake) and was almost late for drama. No Zsa, I was there while the "wedding reception" was still going on ya? So i caught the WHOLE production!! Yayayayay!! It was so worth it. i know i said already, but yeah!!
Okay, post production, decided to overnight in school. Haha! Did a few stupid things. Used shampoo instead of soap, got the lights shut off while bathing, walked to scroom when the choc was on the table. But it was a nice experience. Although Aaron was acting a little weird into the night (or early morning) and zhiyuan wasn't exactly thinking right. Lie down and watch the movie *looks at ceiling and laughs*
Yup, had fun staying over. Played bridge, sorry Hui Min didn't get to bridge with you. And Big2 and watched a bit of some movie which was quite lame... Then talked quite a bit. Sorry for keeping u awake.
Finally decided to sleep at about 4am. Zhiyuan had to wake up at 5.15 for the overnight wheelchair marathon. But her alarm mysteriously didn't ring and i woke up at abt 5. Then abt 5.15 Di Hui came and immediately she woke up. Haha, cool eh? Walked to the sports com, then listened tothe briefing and went back to the scroom to rest. Didn't get much though cuz councillors started arriving for schooL. Yup, second day of sports carn. Yes i didn't bathe that morning but did help out later with the wheelchairs. Played a little badminton but the wind was screwy. Haha
Then basically bummed ard the whole day. Played the gladiator thing with Aaron and won. Hehe. Watched the funniest match ever between Cadence and Evelyn!! Basically did nothing till abt 1 plus, went home to bathe then came back for soccer cheering. Oh yes, before that i was promoting the soccer match too.
The PE tutors were drinking beer!
Finally the bus came, but not the people. Rather disappointed but oh well, 5 of us took the second bus. Cool eh, a whole bus for 5 ppl. But on the way zhiyuan and swee liang looked like they were dead. Zhiyuan was a little hard to wake, and swee liang was a little slow. Haha. We got in and cheered.
I cheered like crazy but it was honestly a disappointing performance by TJ and RJ deserved to win. Yeah, sort of lost my voice cheering for them. Then took an MRT ride back to TJ.
Met JoJo and Eugene! Haha, so nice. The final meeting of the Tropics before we part our ways. Went a little high in there but it was all cool. Stopped by the guitar prep rooms and JoJo gave her stuff and then i got seats with Eugene cuz shums asked us to go early to get good seats. Then went opposite a while then soon the concert started.
Let's jz say i did a lot of screaming and shouting for my students. And also, there was one "GO STAGE CREW" that was Mr Eugene. Stuck ard after the concert. Gave a little something to my students. Then left for home. Shuming looked dead tired. Haha.
Yup, point to note. In thesse two days, i slept only less than 4 hours, and I didn't feel tired or sleepy. Some crazy HIGH!!
OK, Next post shall be on church and the weekend! Yeah!!Labels: 30th SC, Cadence, Eugene, Evelyn, Guitar Concert, JoJo, Mind's Cafe, RTs, soccer, Sports Carninval, Swee Liang, Wheelchair, Zhiyuan, Zsa^2
