5 long days, 5 days in the sun/rain/star/kitchen tent/class room, 5 days with my patrol and 5 days with 01. ac as a pl is much different; rather than pure pioneering or pure cooking, pl now means more of coordinating, which i think i have done well in, and helping out with whatever possible.
now for a day to day recap to help with plog.
day 1
went there in the morning in my uncle's car cos he works near there and he goes to work early, so quite song to be able to hitch a free ride. dont have to worry about mrt or bus or whatever and can wake up earlier. went there and most of the patrol was there and they all brought their forms. a good start to a better end. then it started to rain, somehow it was telling us that this camp was going to rain quite a bit, and i guess it did. stls briefed us a bit on the camp rules and after attendance taking and forms collection. jon ang and jia jing didnt come. sian... dunno whats wrong with the 2 of them. ok jiajing was sick so i dont mind but jon ang is pure pon la. but main point is kevin came =) flag raising was done by anurak and we changed to PE after that and started with tent pitching. sec 1s and 2s did the sleeping tent, while sec 3s helped each other with kitchen tent. the ground there was as hard as iron (not steel) and the pegs all super hard to go in, esp the sleeping tent since you cant mallet that. sec 3s from owl falcon kf did kitchen tent for kf first then falcon followed by owl. ours took horrendously long to get it up and it was dam low standard of pitching. we would suffer on day 2. then continued with campsite establishment. jack and kevin tied the shoerack, ming e the table, all the rest except for me dresser. i was everywhere. falcon was exceptionally fast, shoe rack was done first and it was very stable and could accomodate all our shoes. then jack and kevin went to tie the trestle for our gateway while the rest continued. by 1.30 we had completed 1 trestle, shoe rack, dresser, table top. we were going like a train and could not be stopped by anything other than lunch. campsite establishment continued throughout the afternoon until dinner time. by day 1 we had done about half our gateway, table, dresser, dustbin, shoe rack, stove rack and clothesline. lunch and dinner was packed, yumyum.
one section dedicated to our table. one part of the table top was weaved using ropes and we can throw any random stuff we have there. the other part of the table was covered with our board and we could move the board so we can cover the "pouch" of our table so it was like a secret compartment. anyway our table was really unstable and it was suppper low. Even lower than ming lun's voice, so you can sort of imagine. the table top was not stable so i added 4 jammers made of teko to the 4 corners of the table top so the teko could hold the weight of the table to prevent it from moving all about. once the jammers were in place the table could hold a lot of weight and it was very nice to sit on as it was convenient. i sort of miss the table and esp the pouch now that its gone. o well
The first night activity was iron lungs, singsong session. j1s taught us some of the less common songs we sing and some were really quite cute and funny. the one i like most is the second story window. singing it to the lyrics of jack and jill, its somthing like:
jack and jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water
jack fell down and broke his crown and jill threw him out of the window
the window, the window, the second story window
with a heave and a ho and a mighty big blow
they threw him out of the window
for humpty dumpty:
humpty dumpty sat on the wall
humpty dumpty had a great fall
all the kings horses and all the kings men
they threw him out of the window
the window, the window, the second story window
with a heave and a ho and a mighty big blow
they threw him out of the window
for our own originial one:
when stamford raffles held the torch and cast prometheum flame
we faced the challenge of the day and threw him out of the window
the window, the window, the second story window
with a heave and a ho and a mighty big blow
they threw him out of the window
another song that was funny goes something like this:
leader: why we cant go the heaven
follower: (repeat)
leader: with suphasak
follower: (repeat)
leader: cos suphasak
follower: (repeat)
leader: likes anurak
follower: (repeat)
all: why we cant go the heaven with suphasak cos suphasak likes anurak
the oher part of the song not as impt as the first part. heres other examples
leader: why we cant go the heaven
follower: (repeat)
leader: with joel foo
follower: (repeat)
leader: cos joel foo
follower: (repeat)
leader: likes anurak too
follower: (repeat)
all: why we cant go to heaven with joel foo cos joel foo likes anurak too
leader: why we cant go the heaven
follower: (repeat)
leader: with kenneth kuan
follower: (repeat)
leader: cos kenneth kuan
follower: (repeat)
leader: his hair dam luan
follower: (repeat)
all: why we cant go to heaven with kenneth kuan cos kenneth kuan his hair dam luan
suan myself. anyway tony came up with a lot but its all dam no link and no rhyme. and his body kept spasming and it was sooo funny.
after songs we had the game of liFE. lame right the j1s. main gist of it was to get across the play area by accomplishing tasks and moving forward with each correct task. only thing i remember was that the non physical tasks were dam hard to do hence what we did mainly was physical but it was also quite crazy, like 100 crunches per person. after game of liFE we went back to the classroom and saw the photo slideshow of kestrel and eagle, both dam funny esp eagle. thinker lead-er pioneer
and to end off day 1, PLs had our first FEAR session, aka backstabbing. for the 1st hour we cocked quite a bit, a lot of suanning and funny stuff from sup. then we finally got to the backstabbing in which i chose ________. Its for me to know and for you to find out.
day 2
had breakfast then flag raising, done by hiok since francis did flag lowering on day 1. day started with carom challenge (iron finger). first was stations and different stations had different tasks. some tasks include backshot the striker as many times in 30 seconds, center slice as many times in 30 seconds, put seeds on your elbow and catch them, shoot off the bottom seed in a stack of 10 seeds without dropping the pile, aeroplane a seed in the hole as many times in 30 seconds and get a seed in during the first shot with the seeds properly arranged in the starting position. falcon got owned quite a bit here. after the stations we had a carom game in the parade square. 3 games were ongoing at the same time, and we were fighting eagle. every member had to run to the board in the middle and take 3 consecutive shots. they have to do a task, like pushups etc, halfway while running to the board before they can continue. falcon got 3rd for this, and it was thanks to 2 lucky backshot by takwei. good job tak!
after part 1 of carom challenge, we had iron chef or rather cooking race. first there was a quiz section. Choose a question, answer it and you get to throw some oi (01 actually) points at other patrols. the patrol with the most points had a forfeit for the cooking itself. in the end our handicap was no communication between members. its really dam hard to follow this rule la and i admit we didnt follow it. the food itself was good, as tak wei and wesley were the cooks and they were dam imba. we got 1st for this meal.
AnNuAL rAIn PaRt 1
right when we were eating the annual rain came. had to shift in the poles to the kitchen tent, and we lala-ed in the kitchen tent. thankfully we had our food from lunch still in the kitchen tent, and ming e and i kept lubbing the corn which was dam nice. we had to constantly use our poles to poke the kitchen tent to prevent water from collectng. everyone from falcon got dam wet except for daryl who was standing in the middle of the tent and poking from there. our sleeping tent was quite dry due to the fact that it was only bought this year and used a couple of times only. the kitchen tent gg-ed a few times due to the lousy pegging we did but ours was not as bad as owls'. the kitchen tent somewhat collapsed and many of their things gg-ed, including their table. when the rain was not as bad i went around and just lala in the rain, and also koped hawk's food which they cooked while it was still raining. The ikan bilis dam nice after it was cooked.
dinner was packed cos j1s didnt want to gg us too much as it was really quite degen to cook when half your stuff was wet. night activity was skill o rama. this year it was split to categories like brain uice, balance, card tricks, ball tricks, things your body can do, scout skills and misc. to sum up falcon got owned compared to last year cos i can only do 3 tricks due to the limit they set. but no one could challange my 3 card tricks muahaha im imba. hiok totally owned for hawk in the ball tricks and things your body could do. in the end hawk won skill o rama. first thing they won this year i think. some interesting skills were: ongnardo's mind challenge copied by zhi, weijie's card throwing-paper slicing skill, soham's ball throwing (hand spasm) skill, some skill in balance that required participants to spin around a pole 20 times and walk in a straightline (you can just imagine...) etc. Many more which i forgot la but skill o rama was always fun.
FEAR that night was not so much cock and more on serious stuff to get it over with. This time i backstabbed ______. once again for me to know and for you to find out.
day 2 we didnt accomplish much and our lead in the first day was lost in day 2. Gateway was almost complete and all the gadget was done. our clothesline was just a pole attached to the kitchen tent verticals and to hang the scout u, we tied loops around the pole so that there was some place for the hanger to hook on.
day 3
started the day with X country. Somehow the j1s are suanning singapore small, as cross country was only 3.1km yet it was supposed to be across the country...haliim briefed us on the routes and safety precautions and all that and then we proceeded to the start point which, quoting haliim, was "a field just outside the school". When we reached there we gathered next to the pavement in a clearing. Nice field. Proceeded on with the run being first 10, with a few people chionging forward. I think my pace was too fast at the start which led to me not showing me full potential and winning jack muahahaha. just kidding. jack was reaalllyyy fast like as fast as Haile Gebrselassie. his imba running speed, coupled with the good positions of the sec 1s, allowed us to get 1st for cross country, which i jokered knowing we had a good chance of getting 1st. the positions for cross country are as follows:
sec 1: 3 - Wesley, 3 - Haixiao, 6 - Daryl, 9 - Ziwei
sec 2: 5 - Ming E, 15 - Kevin
Sec 3: 1 - Jack, 7 - Me, 11 - Tak Wei
For our batch:
1 - Jack
2 - Amos
3 - Joel
4 - Sup
5 - Zhong Jun
6 - Francis
7 - Me
Anything onwards i dont really know
After x country was breakfast which the j1s provided. just the usual bread with spread which spread among the different patrols. Somehow eating so much bread reminded me of the fun times of gtc 06 where a particular j1 enjoyed the bread so much he went bonkers after that day with my patrol. I still remember hooking the plastic bag with 6 loafs of bread onto my carabiner and hugging it while hiking. =) happy times
for lunch we had to cook, and i jokered it. The usual people were cooking, while the rest of us were working on the gateway mainly, while also tidying up the campsite. Kevin and Jack added the quadrupod to the front of the trestle and Ming E made it into a shelter by tying groundsheets/ponchos to it. The place was quite cool, like a shelter of some sort. Can lie in it and ur head will just nice be at the position where there is a hole to look outside. If anyone can visualise that go give yourself a cookie and a pat on the back. We also installed a door that can open with a bit of force but looks rather ugly but at least it worked. This one cant really explain to you, gotta see it for yourself. Our gateway really quite cmi actually, when you compare it to other patrol's, especially kf's which was dammm fun to play with. Theirs was a tripod tower which had a seating platform at the top made by putting a board on it. Climbing to the top made me feel tall.
as for our campsite, our dustbin was changed. Previously it was the teko opened up at the bottom, tied to the kitchen tent verticals. Now its the same teko, closed, and pegged into the ground with a mallet. It stands even under extreme pressure like my weight, so i guess its really good.
by the time lunch was done, it started to rain again, hence we brought the cooked food to the canteen. bad move, as it meant easier koping from the other patrols as our food was just too manly. our staple was fried rice, rice with egg + luncheon meat. meat was shrimp paste chicken, veg was some imba veg that was tasty, dessert was mango sago. this meal is without a doubt the best i have ever eaten in a camp throughout my 3 years in 01. the fried rice was soft and tasty, although it was cold due to it being cooked too early. The degree of nice for the meat is self explanatory as it was to be cooked in parents night. The veg looks ordinary but has a lot of taste. The dessert is the best. Sweet, warm, sweet, fantastic, sweet. Somehow i have a feeling I will have diabetes at an early age due to this dessert. in the end, we got 1st for this meal and the 2nd joker which we have won.
After the meal we washed up which wasnt so enjoyable due to the shrimp paste from the chicken...it was as oily as francis's face and no matter how much detergent we used it wont go away. Somehow they managed to clean it la and next activity was sports (Fe)iesta. Geddit? Fe - Iron. Oh harhar the j1s are so farni harhar *pokestomach* 1st game was frisbee against KF. Quite fun to play, not fun to get trashed, totally uncool when Ming E learns from francis and stone. Oh well they attacked too much and no one was really marking the person at the line so in the end the score was something like 2-8. Quite sad la to get trashed like this. Then after that it began to rain, again.
AnNuAL rAIn PaRt 2!
we all went back to the kitchen tents for fear of it being gg-ed again. This time the rain wasnt as hiong as part 1, but still it was enough to get us walking around poking the kitchen tent. Quite happy that it rained tho, as it meant that we had enough time to recuperate from our horrifying loss against kf. Then raga found a tennis ball at kf kitchen tent (cmon which ventures were playing tennis, come clean) and soon kf and falcon started playing softball. Soon owl joined in the fun and we just kept throwing the ball to each other's kitchen tent. Actually tbh it wasnt the 3 patrols la, more like a few people from the patrols. Raga from kf, minge and takwei from falcon, lionel from owl. Then the nubcakehero got super wet and decided to get even more wet. Whenever the water collected and was about to get pushed off, he would stand under and get wet. Retarded right? Managed to get a few pics of this, its currently in his camera.
And it was during part 2 that i realised how cunning jack was. Siao li cang dao...when either tak or minge went out to get the ball and was coming back, jack would lift up part of the kitchen tent where the water was collected and the water would splash on them. he dammmmm cunning still act innocent after that. cunning little jack as cunning as the j1s, he's learning fast.
By the time part 2 ended, it was like 4pm. Horseshoe was blown at the canteen and the j1s were like,"I know its pretty late already, and you all dont feel like cooking..." while Alvin next to me was like,"Ya so...continue leh so...", hoping that we did not have to cook. But in the end the j1s thwarted god's plans and asked for 2 people per patrol to go marketing. I was hesitating as whether or not to send takwei, cos soccer was next and if takwei was gone=falcon ggxx. But in the end takwei and wesley still went, and as predicted, falcon ggxx for soccer. So we continued with the (Fe)iesta, soccer vs owl. Guess who would win? Actually no need to guess la. Sup and lionel were just too imba even for the ball magnet haixiao. I managed to score 1 tho =) The soccer match was something like that:
1) Sup gets the ball
2a) He dribbles a bit
2b) Joel drools a bit
3) Sup pass to lionel
4) Lionel shoots the ball from halfway line*
5) Falcon foams
*Note - halfway line means 10m away from goalpost.
Yup, so you get the idea. Moving on, it was basketball against yeeagleong, or eagle for short. So extra, like kestrel ad astra per aspera or something like that. This game we didnt exactly ggxx, but still counted as ggxx. End score was something like 4-6, with eagle winning. Unexpected? Not really. But i think we did quite well for basketball la, like haixiao dam hiong keep whacking the ball from their hands, and chionging for the ball, even though the floor was wet which resulted in him falling a few times. and jack was too tall for eagle. They throw a ball, he jump and whack the ball as if it was *insert-jack's-most-hated-person-name* face. Then i would get the ball, dribble all the way and using my skillful magic, slide through amos only to find myself outside the court, or a bit behind the board. Then i would attempt a failed shot and eagle get the ball, pass to one of the sec 1 and its a goal for eagle. Honestly their sec 1s dam imba at basketball, like shoot from halfcourt also can score.
By the time (Fe)iesta ended, the marketing people were back le. Somehow falcon always the fastest back from marketing, must be cos of takwei's walkfast aura. I did not really have an idea of what they were cooking, but it was meant to be exotic so it wasnt going to be very pleasant. I was in the tent and heard some hysterical laughter from the kitchen tent. Sounded like someone got tickled with a feather at all sensitive spots, mixed with mouth spasm and whatever else. Turned out our dessert was pepsi + greentea + sago + shit + saliva from the person laughing. Staple was hor fun which was more like soft and chewy paper. Meat was a small chicken meat in the curry soup. The soup is most imba. Drink 1 sip and u will cough le. When it gets to the tongue it isnt so bad, but when it gets to the throat you will feel like you are on fire. I drank like at most 1 spoon of it. The dessert wasnt exactly that bad la, i drank quite a bit of it until i was full. Then somehow KF's wok burst into flame, and norris the fireman tried to extinguish it with water. Then sarun came along and said his words of wisdom, "Cover it with another wok" and when norris did so, the fire was gone within seconds. This is a good example of why you should remember primary school science.
******IMPORTANT******
******Next part is not for the faint hearted or for people who can visualise very well. Proceed with caution...******
As usual after eating was washup. This time it wasnt exactly nice. At first the problem was quite small, just a lot of shit in the big dustbin that was only meant for tied up garbage bags. When i say shit, I mean a mixture of chicken with gravy (owl) and barley seeds (kf) along with many other random stuff like broken plate, tissue paper etc. You get the idea. So we were to clean this up, which meant digging up all the shit in it. And the dustbin was one of those big ones, where you cant just stick ur hand in and grab all the shit out, as if that wasnt bad enough. So at first the PLs took out all the other tied up garbage bags so it was easier to clean, and taking out all those revealed more shit. -.-" Then i did the dirty job of digging out all the shit with my hands and throwing them into an empty garbage bag. Imagine this. Putting your hand into the rubbish, feel a lot of moisture even though u put ur hand in plastic bag, hear a lot of squishy sound when you tighten your grip. oh ya, and also the smell of rotton food from 2 days ago. Sweeeeet. Dugged out quite a bit, and couldnt really reach the bottom. So anurak volunteered to continue the dirty job. He took the plastic bags from me, wrapped his hands, and literally threw himself into the dustbin. Ok la not so extreme i was exaggerating, but it was something like that. He just jumped up, leaned on his stomach against the side of the dustbin, stuck his whole upper body in, dig up some shit, and get back out. Every time he went in it looked as though he was just going to totally fall in and if he did i swear i will never ever go near him again. Eventually most of the shit got taken out, and then the big dustbin was sent to wash. Remember, this was just the small problem.
So we went back to the sink and found out that 2 smart alecs from owl patrol though they were doing us a favour by throwing their bee hoon all over the sink. So not surprisingly the sink got stuck, like when you throw benhong into the bathtub. Yup, as stuck as that. And to add to that, the small dustbin was filled with quite a bit of water and tons of leftover food. If one were to try and lift up the garbage bag it will just stretch and you cant lift it at all without breaking the whole bag. So this is the worse part. Using my BARE hands, i stuck them into the dustbin and immediately felt that it was dam warm. I have a feeling it is decomposing or something. I dug up the shit and threw it into another garbage bag, The beehoon was the bulk of it la, and sometimes there were some stuff that felt sharp. It was easily one of the sickest and most disgusting thing I have ever done, even more sick than drinking my own urine when I was young. just joking, i bet you fell for that.
TO BE CONTINUED

AC, here i come
In about 8 more hours, AC will be startin at farrer park primary school. And for the next 5 days, I will be at farrer park pri sch, enduring the hot sun and the randoming clothes that drop from hdb flats around due to the strong winds. Sounds fun doesn't it? This year i just hope we wont get last again, like we have been for the past 2 years. Quite sian to always see owl at the top and falcon at the bottom, so this year its going to change, i hope. Another wish is for our patrol to have full attendance, and from what the sec 2s have shown so far, i think that it's highly possibe for us to achieve this. We would then have 11 people, more than any other patrols and it would certainly help us for the pioneering part.
Day zero was really dammm sian. Went to braddel westlake at 9am and loaded the poles onto the lorry. The uncle was the same guy for the past few years and apparently this year he upgraded his lorry so that it had a lift at the back which was suuuuuuper doooooper cool. When we wanted to get back to RI, we all stood on the lift and then it just lifted 15 of us as if we were as light as a feather. Imba. And the strength of the lift was matched by the strength of the uncle. What would normally take 3 scouts to do only took 1 of him, and he closed the gate of the pole shed easily. And after moving it he said that it was so simple. -.-" suanner
Then went back to den to shift the logistics onto the lorry. As we had too many stuff we needed to carry quite a bit, like the tekos and the tents. Then we took 56 to farrer park pri sch and in the process we caused the passengers to all hold their breathe cos we were all too smelly le. All the sweat + shit from the pole shed + frog and lizard poo on the pole and whatever other sai there are at braddel.
At fpps, we didnt have to unload anything as norris jj and the uncle had already done so by the time we reached. Hence we straightaway went for lunch at tekka wet market and i ate quite a lot, but didnt pay a lot. =) what i like best. Went back to school and moved the poles to the field, only to realize that it was going to rain anytime. So we arranged all the poles in height order and covered them with our kitchen tent. About half an hour later the sky cleared and we tied the flagstaff and also split the poles -evenly- amongst the 6 patrols. Falcon was quite lucky as our camp area was right next to where the poles were so didnt have to walk much and had time to arrange our poles neatly, also due to the fact that we had 3 sec 3s while the others only had 2. Thanks jack! After that just cleaned up a bit then dismissed le
Dont expect a post in the next 5 days. Or 6 for that matter cos the whole day ill be sleeping. Week 1 is gone...and i cant use the iphone.

ac prep continues
somehow i cant get a custom layout apparently theres some error with the coding although i dont see any. ill get a way around this somehow, just wait for it.
today is the last day of term 2 and semester 1, which means half a year has passed. The year passes so fast and I don't even realise it, still remember the days as a junior in RI where life was carefree. its going to get worse from now on i guess oh well. somehow i dont really look forward to the last day as week 1 of hols going to be very busy. actually not even week 1, weekends also very busy. prep tomorrow, ac day 0 on sunday, ac monday to friday. and this week had prep every day tuesday to friday, with prep last saturday after open house. prep here prep there prep everywhere. we should all be pretty prep-ed by now yet i feel much less prepared and that something is going to go wrong somewhere.
tomorrow going to lala a bit, jogging at 6am with francis =) first time experience jogging around school before the sun rises, and hopefully it will be fun. then after that going to saw the 7x3m tekos i have for gadget then go home and sleep. francis has 10x3m and sup has...20. quite crazy la he dunno what he was thinking when he bought 20 at nutc and ended up looking quite retarded carrying 10, the other 10 with joel. not to say i didnt look like an idiot too. today, compared to the other preps, was more productive and we managed to finish sawing tekos for the dresser. used a flexible saw as sarun was *unpredictable* and decided to let my survival kit breathe a bit. its easy to saw the first part of the teko, but sawing the whole things was quite crazy and took quite a bit of effort. but at least its much more convenient than using the saw from the den ba.
holidays going to be pretty sian. first week gone, second week play, third week magically disappears and fourth week is for chionging projects and homework. always the same la, except the homework part usually gets delayed until the weekends of the last week of holidays. hopefully i can get my lazy ass to do some work like right after ac so wont so stressed out on the last week and start angsting everyone the moment i come back to school. anyway im looking forward to class gathering with all the relief teachers coming back. school going to get boring without them and the lame/retarded/gl things they do everyday that makes our life more colourful.
and ss project is due a few hours later. how nice

holidays going to be pretty sian. first week gone, second week play, third week magically disappears and fourth week is for chionging projects and homework. always the same la, except the homework part usually gets delayed until the weekends of the last week of holidays. hopefully i can get my lazy ass to do some work like right after ac so wont so stressed out on the last week and start angsting everyone the moment i come back to school. anyway im looking forward to class gathering with all the relief teachers coming back. school going to get boring without them and the lame/retarded/gl things they do everyday that makes our life more colourful.
and ss project is due a few hours later. how nice

Hi world
Yup yup, new blog. This time im lazy with my own layout and its partly against my own will to get this blog up asap cos someone was rushing me =( anyway this blog will be mainly about scouts and school cos apart from that, theres really nothing much to my life im dam boring. sometimes i wonder why blogs are called blogs -.-" i mean plogs are like patrol logs, so what are blogs? big logs? web log should really just be wlog, as retarded as it may sound but who cares its easier for people to identify it when saying wlog, although i dont really think anyone can really say wlog.
aiya ok that was quite random just something i thought of. this blog might be boring to most, interesting to others who are related/relevant to the events that i post in this blog. hopefully you fall into the latter, if not this blog will be quite boring la. the most appealing reason for setting up this wlog would be to record down stuff that happens during acts for ease of plogs and stuff like nyaa. argh nyaa dont remind me currently got enough stuff bugging me and now still got nyaa, in which less than half of our batch replied to my email which i sent out ages ago. and even though its about half a year since we started we haven't.even.finished.our.physical.recreation. crap. and then theres also skills which we havent even thought of what to do. cool isn't it X_X
anyway ac coming up soon, 4 more days to be precise. im currently feeling quite screwed la esp the banners. seeing all other patrols have like 3 well painted banners and i see mine 2 screwed up banners which arent even completed. ok eagle also has 2 banners but at least theirs much better than mine. the boards i would say quite average. all 3 are pretty plain but at least we decorated them. but one look at kf and its outright suan. its like the corner next to the den where kf paints is seriously tooooo suan. everything planned until super nice, with the godly supervision and management of alvin, and the heavenly drawings from zhongjun. Perfect combo and to add on to it, dam enthu people as manpower. But falcon also quite enthu la, so i shouldnt complain that much. ill be positive and wont rant so much on the first post of this blog :)
cant wait until ac is over then its 3 weeks of lalaland. every day will be a repeat of the previous day: wake up, play, eat, try to do homework but fail, and the cycle continues for 3 weeks until i finally have to do my homework or someone forces me to. Come to think of it holidays actually quite sian for me. Every day do the same stuff, only thing to really look forward to are the weekends of the hols when my dad is free to take us out and buy some stuff that i want or just look and admire...cant wait till he gets back from states (maybe with some goodies for me!)
tomorrow going to be another sian day. 4 hour of lessons, then 23672 hours of ac prep with 23671 hours of it screwing around and not actually doing anything productive. hope it goes better than expected.
