today is not monday

okay, i didn't blog yesterday because i had a splitting headache. why? you'll find out later.

monday

yesterday was the first day of school. chance said to meet at the usual kopitiam at 0700, but i told him that first train comes at around 0615 for me, so i told him i'll try my best. i woke up bloody early just to walk to bukit batok mrt so i'll make it. what happened? they came at 0730. i reached at 0645.

walked to school later on, we didn't want to be late. but as fate had it, RP had power failure, and although the escalator going up to blocks W6 & E6 worked, they're elevators didn't. since my class was W65L, i had to climb 5 storeys, and the first three was in total darkness cos the contractor didn't have brains to put windows in the stairwells. reached my class after the morning excercise, and it didn't have the usual penguin enclosure coldness. i perspired like a wet dog, because the contractor was also dumb enough to make the windows permanantly closed.

half the class came late that day, because of the fool who jumped onto the mrt track at choa chu kang/yew tee. we practically didn't do anything for the first meeting. i have a good feeling about this class, they are seriously quite enthusiastic, and not over the top. We had to make a turtle write out "HELLO WORLD" for the class, and i did what i was supposed to. programmed it on a platform called python, never heard of it.

after school, hung out with akina, chance, sean and chance-brother-called-ben's girlfriend. played all the camp games luh, and sean just sucks at them, dont know why. then played the friendster story game, then after that played chinese games translated to english. after that chance and i took a cab to causeway, when i got out i almost hit a pole.

funny thing is, after i reached clementi, i jaywalked and walked into a no jaywalking sign. that's where the splitting headache came from. doctor said i had a minor concussion, possibility of internal bleeding, but to me, internal bleeding means a bruise.



tuesday/today

went to school again. went to first meeting. the faci asked each team to draw their island, my team had a valley of death, macdonalds, giants peakers, a dragon, a man killing the dragon, a tornado, a lightning storm, a nuclear silo, people protesting, a dock that keeps burning, a weed plantation, so on and so forth. funny thing is that we called it "island of peace".

left at second meeting. went to library awhile to read some comics, saw lindsey and jessica, who skipped class today. hung out with them awhile, and then went to the job interview at clarke quay. i passed. and i'm the youngest in the group. but i look the oldest.

i misinterpreted the email. it said "not allowed: sandals/slippers & berms, tshirt, jeans allowed, wear proper footwear". i thought it meant that everything until jeans was not allowed, but it was just no sandals and slippers, berms onwards everything can.

went back to the kopitiam to hang out with the bunch minus akina and plus chance's classmates. came home. steph has 40 bucks worth of medicine to make her feel better, and i only have packets of tissue to stop my leaking nose.
