been neglecting my blog recently, due to many reasons, but basically too tired to blog. =x went for fass camp just last week. time and again, i'm amazed at how fast time has passed. it seem that just yesterday when i had to stay awake to 2 or 3am and be ready for my breakfast at 8am. haha.
camp
camp was okey i guessed. alot of stuff i have not experienced before since i have never been to a first orientation camp. one event was a photo shoot race. we had to travel to different places and find places then take photos according to what the organisers wanted the pictures to have. for exampe, girls in the og posing in a windy day outside the holland village shopping centre windmill. i get to see alot of the west side places, it was quite enriching. sadly we was not able to complete all the 5 places we had to go due to lack of time. there was also a night walk. it was supposed to be scary however for my team, 3 girls and 1 guy. we walked into the toilet and accidentally switched on the lights. hehe. so in the end we could see everything, and we asked jun yue to go inside to see the stuff. while june, aileen and me were left at the door. even though the lights were on, we did get scared as there was a guy hidden inside the cubicle and came to disturb us from the top of the cubicle, by throwing cans at us, and even pulled our hair. we even laughed as we saw a "ghost" combing his long rebonded fringe. haha. i think that if the lights were really off, i will scream my hearts out. haha. felt wasted to have switched on the lights though, but once the lights was on, we did not want it off. hehe. there were also war games, where i think we were supposed to get wet and dirty. to me, i expected rolling on muddy waters, having flour thrown at us or eggs etc. but it was much cleaner then i thought. there were like 10 stations, with small mini games to "play". there were also other events and the usual cheering and screaming for the varies houses. overall i felt that the time management was abit off, as many atimes we had to wait for further instructions. and they like to drag events so we usually end late in the night. but i met friends during the camp, my og mates, without them i don't think i will enjoy the camp at all. haha. to me, i felt that i never really interacted with my og mates. felt that usually i'm just quiet etc. funny right. haha. don't know why i don't seem to have much topic to talk i guess, or crap around with. realise that i'm not a joker or a crapper. another first experience was going clubbing! haha. we went dxo, and it was ladies night. the free drinks were limited and to me i did not like it very much. my og brought volka and mixer (orange and spirit), and we played the "i never" game. we each take turns saying stuff we never do before and those who have done it before have to drink. a "interesting" game bah. haha. i feel that i'm not a dancer at all! i don't know how to dance. haha. only know how to move to the music bah. then i don't really like dxo cause very small. but the music was not bad. hehe.
starbucks experience at concourse! i like the managers and partners there, everyone is very helping and welcoming. for the first few times when i did opening, i think i never really clicked with my partners well bah. i just kept quiet and did my work. haha. i quite like to do closing cause can bring food home. but the food i brought home, not all will be eaten. so its quite wasted i guess. food that i like! lowfat cramberry muffin, banana chocolate muffin, warm chocolate cake, cheese bread, nuts over chocolate brownie, oreo cheesecake, american cheesecake, peach danish, roast chicken sandwich. there are also other stuff i don't like at all or have not try before. but till then. my list is like this for now. hehe.
for university, i don't think i want to stay in hostel le. after my experience at the camp. for single rooms, they are quite excluded and old le. i stayed in eusoff hall, which is suppose to be better compared to raffles hall. though i think that staying in university will be better. nevermind bah. hope my decision will be correct bah.
i will be slowing down my pace bah. staying and try to slack at home more. though i like to be occupied with stuff. but i think i need a rest before going into university. then my next 3 to 4 years, i will be studying hard. want to cap my average at a B+ or best A. so have to work very hard bah. i don't know why i keep working. haha. people might say i'm crazy, one work after another. but this time round, its my passion le. so i enjoy it more then doing admin job. haha. anyway, hope everything works out ya. hehe.
think i never rave about mirana bakery bread before. its located at simei, near the mrt there. not inside the shopping centre. is the opposite direction, pink colour sign board. there is another shop at raffles mrt below. but i prefer simei one better. the waffle is nice! and bread also. love red bean bread. the texture of the bread and the sweet red bean goes very well together. can try other bread also le. everytime will have to wait very long for the waffle. hehe. yupz.. so if got chance should go and try it. furthermore i'm in love with pineapple tart! last time, i don't really like it. but don't know why this year, i can eat alot alot. and mirana pineapple tart is nice also! with plenty of fillings. hehe. u won't regret getting mirana stuff. hehe. like helping them promote like that but its nice le. hehe.
