last post of 2005??
well, i've been having lots of fun over the last month or so. going out with the scouties and s11ers and also staying at hom with my xbox and computer to keep me company. ok so first up we have s11 chalet.
although a bit short, it was quite fun on the last night... haha. had some fun knowing more about each other. go stephanians, school of hard knocks... lol. played some beach rugby before that but kinda died halfway due to lack of sleep and excercise too. didn't sleep on the first day. it was nice to have everyone around and just relaxing and stuff.


next significant thing was johnnie's birthday thingy at carnivore. yes, it's called carnivore. meat galore. yum.
YOU NEVER HAVE TO LEAVE UR TABLE!!! omg...

Me giving up
Happy rubin

impromptu stayover at daryl's after that. we played a 5hr game of zombies. totally zombified at the end of it. haha
the 'me' is daryl. patrick won. and johnny is like back at town square. net displacement for whole 5hrs is 1 step.
Zombies battleground
after that was a lot of cleaning and cooking at home. preparing the house for christmas and stuff. making tarts, cleaning, chaging curtains, bedsheets, cleaning every possible corner of the house. haha... and then on the 23rd, we made achar. lots of hard work but totally worth it at the end.

christmas was quite alright. pretty normal. oh ya, good thing that this year christmas is on a sunday. have to go to church only once that week.. hahaha
watched narnia on 26th. it's quite a good movie. like rubin said, it's a PG13 LOTR. haha. have to agree on that.
yesterday was a good day. longest i ever spent in sentosa. we were in by 11ish and only left abt 7. i think we spent about 6 hrs playing volleyball right? haha... skin all cooked. we played till our hands hurt from just receiving the balls, especially from that bitch daryl. freaking hit so hard, you had to use yr body to hit the ball back. and there was also a record trashing of 15-1 in one game. haha. that's when rubin finally beat his jinx of his team losing every game they played. i'll put those photos up when i get them
some scout campfire tonight. we're organising it for the YMCA kids. should be fun. next sem's going to be though. i'm trying for 6 modules. the norm is 5 but i need to catch up on 1 as last sem i only did 4. hopefully it's ok. taking singapore society and some wireless gem. need to improve grades too... haha
some other photos i got from daryl
you know when you're getting old once you prefer some chinese seafood place in the middle of orchard road

goodbye my friend
it's been a good 22 months with you... you've been there through the quiet times, the broken times, hours of entertainment, companionship and fun... i don't know what it would have been without you. my life has been completely changed by your presence. you were always there with me. and when you weren't, the world was just one noisy place. but with you, i've grown to realise what i really treasure, what i like and what i just can't stand.
goodbye my dear ipod... and make way for the new ipod... good thing you're as big as the old fart... you sit in the dock perfectly...

Don't have any scout photos but things didn't go well for SJI scouts. those guys only managed to get a silver... they didn't do too well in their non campcraft sections i.e. first aid, scout lore and backwoodsman cooking... and it was quite obvious that they didn't put their best into it. very disappointed with them. the challenge shield winners were from my subcamp (i was in 1 of the 4 subcamps as camp staff) Catholic High. As a competitor, i hated them like hell. They get lots of funding from their school, and their alumni too. But as a camp staff i've learnt that they are actually do deserve the challenge sheild. those people are disciplined as hell and are really good scouts... they've definitely earned my respect now.the usual gold winners were Cat High, VS and Gan Eng Seng School.. however i didn't expect Anglican High and ACS to get gold too. dunman high got gold too... it's a really different feeling to be an adult leader now for scouts. and i like the roles and responsibilities that we take on now. not much of a school role but you have to get involved at the HQ level and that means you get to know everyone... all the district comissioners and stuff like that... not bad... it was a good feeling to go back to sarimbun for the camp after so long. i'm glad i volunteered for it :) after that was just the normal slacking around. i think i'm sleeping less during the holidays as compared to during school... too much things to do! haha
