Do you remember how you captioned this picture, Chits? Back when you still used Friendster.

Here's to

Ashereen; for not having an affair with anyone else LOL
Haneesha; who I miss :(
Tanya; for that long ass email. That's officially put my longest email to shame. Love you :)
Maish; for getting into Uni in Singapore. I envy you. I want to leave as badly as you do. 'Anywhere but here' sounds very cool right now.
Daniel; /whoo ;)
CW and Da; who I want to see so badly. Sorry for not making it today. Have Interact meetings every week :D

---==---

I've been cooped up at home an awful lot lately. It's been depressing really, not being on Facebook or WLM. I've survived for 10 days now. When I did this in Form 3, I never really felt like this. I was too busy staying back in school for no reason. I never had anyone to MISS. Maybe this was a bad idea. I didn't realise that there'd be that many people to miss... that there'd be many people that would miss me in return. Maybe I should come back on. Nahhhhh. It's all part of the challenge.

So there's school tomorrow right? I was supposed to go, but school ends at 1.20 tomorrow and that would mean there won't be Math (which was why I was going in the first place) and my mum has left the country. No transport :)
Henceforth, therefore, thus, erego, I'll go watch Fast and Furious at Queensbay tomorrow. If anyone's going to be there, pleeeease let me know. A lot of my friends have other priorities at the moment. So if anyone wants to bare with me, let me know :D

----==----

This week hasn't been the least bit hectic as I expected it to be. Apart from the loneliness and discontentment, it's been pretty good. Pinhorn emerged victorious in the Sukan Tara event, I got a step closer to getting my P licence and I talked to Tanya after two weeks (SOOPERLONGEMAIL).

I'm listening to Tchaikovsky's 1812 overture right now. So soothing. Classical music ftw!

I want out.

I've realized that all my sources of happiness, sadness, confusion, discontentment, anger and everything else in between comes from me being online reading things, seeing things, observing things.

I want out.

What's it now? 12 days?

Come onnnnnn.

Toast Story

Instead of a ghost story...

As I opened the pack of bread, I felt the urge to eat toasted bread. Toast. I took the pieces of bread put butter on them. I put them in the toaster and turned the switch on. The pieces of bread began to burn and the butter began to melt. The butter fell to the base of the toaster. Minutes later, the beep was heard and the toasts were ready. I took the scintillating, burnt bread out of the toaster. I put them on a plate. Slowly but not slowly (umm), I whipped out a knife and spread margarine over the pieces of toast. The margarine and butter mixed together to heed a smell so tempting... so luscious. I then put jam on the pieces of toast. The jam became hot due to the blistering heat given off by the toast. I smelled strawberry jam. I then put the pieces of toast together to form a sandwich. There were crumbs everywhere. I ate the toast sandwich and it gave me a sense of salaciousness. The feeling was almost orgasmic.

The End.

1) This is purely fiction.
2) Yes, I know that salaciousness means 'stimulating sexual desire'. Did you?
3) This story was for Luvenia and Pang. I enjoyed the tent ;)
4) No orgasmic toast.

La Fleur...

I am very pissed off with my computer. You see, I'm a geek when it comes to Lost. It remains as the only show that can make me get up at 3 am on a weeknight to watch it. (I'm talking about downloading it.) As soon as I have it, I MUST watch it. No two ways about it. So today, I started to download the latest episode, La Fleur ('the flower' in English) and it moved at 60+ kb/s. A frickin 300MB amount of the file downloaded within one and a half hours. So then I go down for dinner. When I come back up, the computer's hung. FUCKIN A

So I am pissed. Very pissed. But lets lighten things up in this post, shall we?

Today at school, my teacher made me buy a Buku Kesihatan. Basically it's this book that you keep throughout your schooling life that has a record of all your health information, issues, etc. Naturally, I didn't have one. Or well, I think I did but it got lost in translation. Anyways, I had to get one today for a buck. At the front of this thingamabob I had to list down all the classes I'd been in for the past 10 years. So what I was actually supposed to have done is carry this book with me from Standard One all the way through to Form Five without it being lost, torn, incinerated or stolen. Good luck with that, anyone.

TAG 03 ... anticipation.

For Sartah and Aida,

Top 10 things under RM 10 that make me happy. (in no specific order)

10. Pirated goods (DVDs for the most part)
9. TV show downloads online (ie Lost, Skins, Gossip Girl, Suite Life on Deck, etc.)
8. Public buses
7. Newspapers
6. McDonalds vanilla cone
5. Wireless hot spots
4. Movie tickets
3. Life in secondary school (which is pretty much free)
2. Roti canai
1. Silence

-------------------------------=======-----------------------------

Recap (for the lesser informed people...)

- Drama practice has been fun. I'm really relishing the time spent with people I wont have the pleasure of socializing with come the closing stages of this year.

- I have a ton of schoolwork that requires completion within the next couple of days. Drama practice has had its cons as well. It's minimized my time with school books and such.

- I miss Chittesh Shukla, whom for one reason or another has not been in touch with me and vice-versa. What's been going on?! I'm going to call you tomorrow and you better pick up.

- With the annual drama competition for secondary schools coming up, my friends and I have been given the task of coming up with a script for a 15 minute skit. A single moral value is required. (Any one BUT patriotism, which I am sick and tired off.) Any ideas? We need all the help we can get.

- Birthday month approaching. For my own good, I've told myself that I'll celebrate my birthday just once this year. I've got a friend called Paalan who is having a small get-together of his own. If permitted, I would very much like to celebrate mine and his together for the members of our social circles are very much similar to one another's. Rsvp, Paalan.

- Speaking of the 15th, I'd very much like it if you turned up at Dewan Sri Pinang on Friday the 13th of February for a collection of different performances. For 20 ringgit, you get to see Paalan in his breakout role as Romeo and me as a mime. The two of that combined is already worth more than 20 ringgit in my humble and oh so bias opinion, so its a pretty good deal yeah?

- Speaking of the 13th, Valentine's Day and Kumar's birthday are on the 14th of February. Completely ignoring the latter subject of the previous sentence (for reasons I have no intentions on revealing), Valentine's Day is about 2 weeks away now and I've got myself a Valentine. Have you? In all seriousness, I've realised only recently that Valentine's Day shouldn't just solely be for lovers and soul mates to celebrate. Valentine's Day is one of the only occasions on which you have an excuse to meet up with a friend or friends, depending on how you role (especially when you have strict parents). I'm making the 14th of next month an excuse to meet up with a friend whom I love verryy much and whom I've not seen in around seven months. I am looking forward to V day this year. I think its going to be one of those days that I'm probably going to remember for the rest of the year. Not because I'm going on a date on Valentine's Day, but because I'm going to utilize a relatively small-scale occasion completely by having a blast with an amazing friend.

- With all that said, it looks like I'm going to have a pretty hectic (for entirely good reasons) February. This will stop. I've sort of set a point at which there will be a closure to all my social necessities (from a going-out sense). April. I've thought long and hard and April seems like a good month to stop everything. The planned hiatus to all social activities (except for a select few) will be one that will be hard to bare with (especially for someone like me). The thing is... I've done it before... a few years back. And to the people that knew me well back then, you know that when I say "I will disappear", I really REALLY mean it.


"But that is the future I speak off. Dwelling upon the future shall bring forth the death of me. And for that reason, and that reason alone... I concede defeat to my innocent philosophy, and shall remain in the present where forthcoming things are yet uncertain. "

December.

November has not been the best of months I must say, even though there was that joy of completing exams and moving on to Form Five. Note the sarcasm?

So, it's December. Happy December!

I've always loved this month. That feeling of joyfulness and togetherness with friends and family always peaks in December. Here's to hoping it'll happen this time as well.
My completion of the list is getting somewhere, believe it or not. I intend to have at least 3 more things done within the first week of December.
I've also decided just now that I'll spice my blog up with Christmas-related colors and such to feel in the mood.

So moving on...

1) Get those Christmas lists ready and start sending them off to the North Pole. I'm sure Santa can't be fucked to give a damn about your wish lists so just do it to piss him off.
2) Put up your Christmas trees, Christian or not Christian.
3) Decorate your house with red,green and white. And pink..just for kicks.

Christmas is 25 days away :D

Hohoho bitches.

I've got so much left to do. Looking forward to it.

Today was good.

I'm contemplating cutting my hair at a salon from now on. The way this metro dude washes your hair for you and massages your head at the same time and everything is almost orgasmic. (I didn't understand Chittesh when he first told me, now I do.)

Divya faced two challenges, or rather faced two challenges but decided not to go through with one of them :
a) the enormous task of crossing the apparently bottomless contraption of doom, commonly known as a monsoon drain. (or a mini monsoon drain) (whatever lah small drain)
b) Using escalators to go DOWN a few levels. ( Yeah she didn't do this. ) What was it again? Escalaphobia?

Chittesh was fashionably late AGAIN. Oh speaking of Chittesh, I'd like to thank him for coaxing me into finally doing my hair. He inspired me. And he sat by me the entire time my hair was being cut. Such a good friend :D

Chittesh and Divya met my house (there is nothing wrong with that sentence). They met Jessica. They met Rohan (who loves them I guess since he didn't growl at them like he normally does to strangers.) Chittesh likes my maid's name, Letitia (Le-tee-sha) (aka'd as Letty). And he likes my masks ooooh. Divya looks (I'm not sure how this quite works) good with my Darth Vader helmet on. Chittesh looks ummmmk with my halloween mask thing on. We so need to do a sleepover thing lah. It'd be awesomememememememememememeememamomumi.

In other news, my mum's Bacardi bottle is empty :O
Who Killed Roger Rabbit?

I've never actually watched that movie. Can someone who has tell me whether we find out who does indeed kill Roger Rabbit?

Anyways, yeah my mum's Bacardi bottle is empty.

Peng Chew is a bitch. Now more than ever. That Physics paper was so harddddd.

On a lighter note, my exams are over. This means that there will be regular updates on this blog, so keep checking back.
Now that the exams are over, I've decided to formulate a list of things I would like to accomplish during this month and a half break I have. What are the chances of me actually accomplishing it? Close to none. Oh well.

I'm still O-verwhelmed. Obama's acceptance speech was one of the most moving speeches I've seen and heard in my life thus far. If you haven't already watched this, here it is:




My examinations are almost over. Got a couple of Bio papers and History on Monday, and a couple of Physics and EST papers on Tuesday. It'll fly by. I'm sure of it.

Random frustration: Does anyone else feel pissed off that that sense of hype and anticipation we got from watching Manchester United and Arsenal vie for EPL (BPL) supremacy is gone? There used to be so much chatter in school the day before the match and everyone would be placing illegal bets, among other things. It's gone now. What's happened? Is it the fact that we've just stopped being excited or is it because the matches aren't like they used to be? When Arsenal lost the likes of Dennis Bergkamp, Patrick Vieira, Robert Pires, Sol Campbell, Lauren, and Thierry Henry all in such a short, abrupt manner, Arsenal lost their status as one of the Top Four. I really can say that to you now and mean it. Arsenal just aren't good enough to be in league with the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool. On the other hand.. Hull City...
It's sad, really.

School today was a bore. No surprises there. However, it was after school when this boredom seemed to diminish slightly. After Navnith and Paalan left, Jerome, Narinder and I met Robert the Pedophile (aka'd as Chulan) sitting next to his latest victim. (Kidding lol) (or WAS I?) (dumdumdummmmmm)
Yeah anyways, we talked and talked until we reached a point where I, Keshav, the ever so frequent wielder of a camera whipped out my.. umm camera. Then we decided to abuse Robert. Not literally because he was too powerful ;) So I bet you're dying to look at the pictures right?

Robert the Pedophile. (We'll have him no other way :] )

Then Singh... and voila!

Happy Tree Friends.

High School Musical 3.

So I watched High School Musical 3 today.

Now honestly, I'd say it was good. Better than its predecessors by a mile. Or several.
Corny? To a certain extent, yes. In the cinema I was peeled on to the screen waiting for something cheesy to happen, and "God" forbid, it happened. Vanexxxa and Zac started singing in the rain. This really pissed me off. I'm sure the producers know about the criticism HSM gets for being corny and YET they had to put a scene as such in to the movie. I mean.. WHY?

Anyways, a couple songs are catchy (for real this time). The dancing is brilliantly choreographed as always. The movie however loses steam right up to the midpoint where all hope for it is pretty much lost. Then, it surprisingly picks up the pace right after, in more ways than one. I wouldn't want to spoil it for you people so I'll just leave that be. Lets just say the story line isn't as predictable as you'd think it'd be this time around.

However, the more this movie progressed to its close, I couldn't help but feel that heightened sense of nostalgia. The movie plays out in such a way that you'll have mixed feelings of joy and nostalgia, wherein you come to a realization that 'damn! it's actually coming to an end. you know, no more "What Time Is It?"s or "WILDCATS!" or "Getcha' head in the game"s. No more corny one liners, no more cliched story lines, and such.

Hate it or love it, most of you've watched all three of them. You will miss criticizing it or enjoying it, whichever you saw fit to do in the past.

As this attempted review comes to a close, I'd like to point that there probably WILL be more High School Musicals in the future. Circumstances are such that it has been made possible (with ingenious planning by the producers of course) but it won't be the same. Without names like Zac Efron and Vanexxxa Hudgens, it just won't be the same and this series will crumble to the ground.

But I don't really care anyways. I'm always going to remember the first three, the trilogy that started everything. I'm going to remember how HSM became a fad in schools across Penang for a certain time. How SOME people learned the dance moves to We're All In This Together (yes Siew Chai, you're no exempt). I'm going to remember humming its tunes just to piss people off. (oh btw I'm still going to do that since it's fun) and pretty much how it's just been such a phenomenon all over the world.

This third movie pretty much covers everything that is needed to fill in the blanks (if any) left by its predecessors. Continuing it with a different cast will dilute its effect on everyone. So my advice to Disney, NO MORE HSM. Move on to something else.

Personally, it took me a while to snap out of the effect the last few scenes of the movie gave me. It was just all that nostalgia I guess. Walking out of that cinema signalled the end of 'High School Musical' for me, the end of a phase and the end, whether you want to admit it or not, of an era.


What time is it? Time to attempt to study. Ciao.

PS: Happy 84th Birthday, tata!

I've got three topics I'd like to partially elaborate on.

Firstly, I've lost faith in my computer.
Yesterday, I lost pretty much all my files. Untraceable. Today, my CD-Rom plays up. It can't read any CD I put in it. This either is a sign from the apparent God saying that I should leave my computer at peace and pursue the demonic task of reading the mind-melting cataclysm that is commonly known as Sejarah (Note, Sejarah. Not History.) OR my computer, which is relatively ancient, needs an upgrade and an efficient anti-virus.

Secondly, all remaining hope I had for my school, Penang Free School, to improve herself for the betterment of her students and teachers alike was lost today.
First I was walking around the school pretty much for an hour with my cellphone in one hand. I stopped to talk to teachers, even a disciplinarian and what response do I get for being in possession of a cellphone (which is illegal, if you haven't already figured out) ? Nothing. No uproar. No form of nagging. No advice. Nobody cared.
Next, Lim Ah Seng (pretty cool guy if you get to know him) told me he wants to talk to me. This doesn't happen very often. Looking at the pathetic state the school's Board of Prefects is in at the present time, I am undoubtly sure that he was about to offer me a prefect post. ME. I've had numerous discipline cases in school during my glory years. Apparently the BOP is in such a state even I've been offered a post. Sad, really. On the other hand, Mr. Lim might have certain urges he only sees fit to indulge upon in my presence (if you know what I mean). Let us pray that is not the case. :)

Thirdly, for all you losers out there (yes, rub it in) that don't know High School Musical 3 is out tomorrow, go shoot yourself. Or break out in song. Whichever works.
Anyways, it's out tomorrow and I'm going to watch it. I'm considering it my last bit of excitement before the next couple of hectic weeks begin. I have chosen not to bore you with a synopsis of the movie itself (assuming you would have bothered reading it in the first place).
Just take the cheesiness and corniness which I know is so obviously present in the series out of the equation and you might actually like it. Give it a shot, eh? You'll probably watch it anyways since everyone will, either to enjoy it (like I hope I do) or to constantly criticize it (like I'm sure you and an individual known as Chittesh WILL do).

In completely unrelated news, I've got a new safari hat.

I changed my blog skin btw (with the help of the Haneesha).
Hey, look! Supper! (get it? no? nvm)

So firstly I'd like to point out that I've lost all my pictures, my videos, Heroes, Gossip Girl, Batman TAS, and such. Computer fucked me over. Apparently I had a corrupted local profile or some shit like that. Anyways, don't ask me for stuff, because I don't have them, Paalan.

Damn you Sartah and Aida LOL and thanks for your "empathy"

Chulan, you're officially Robert from now on. That name is too kickass to not use. Say, doesn't Robert sound like a pedophile's name? (Yes Dhivia, with an E not an A)

A month ago, I thought Heroes was getting to complicated for its own good. Watch Episode 6 of the third season, and you will not change your mind. On the contrary, you might probably give up watching the show. (or be really pissed off with Tim Kring)

Team Blair! ftw

I secretly want to deride at Chittesh's camera just to take the pain of not owning a camera as cool as his away. Seriously though, his camera is absolutely amazing.

Brown only!

I snapped a picture of my reflection in Paalan's eye. Look how clear it isss.


Aida, I decided not to video blog. Why? Because you kept interrupting me hahah. So I had to TYPE. thanks A LOT.

And finally, to my counterpart, I would personally like to vivify the fact that a person with close to impeccable English such as yourself does not deserve to live a shrouded and restricted lifestyle such as you possess at this point of time. Step out of that shell you so willingly hide in. Learn to chide, extol and connive. Possession of these three abilities will not only make life much more simple and incisive, it will also bring you elation.
These words may seem pointless coming from an individual such as myself. Just.. think. Please?

The Umpteenth Excursion 01

Before I start, breaking news says that Avril Lavigne's Malaysia Concert has been canceled because it has been deemed "TOO SEXY".

Moving on,

The Umpteenth Excursion to Penang Hill

So with the recent arrival of the cousin, Harish, things have indeed been a little less dull here in good ol' 49.

Another hike up Penang Hill was planned. It was as good as any other :D

So damn I slept at 2.30 after watching Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay (WHICH IS ABSOF*CKINGLUTELY AWESOME btw) (for reasons you should know). Anyways, I was forced awake at 6.30 . F*cking alarms LOL. I was so so dizzy and blur and sleepy and all when we were dropped at Moon Gate.

Moon Gate.

The hike up took us approximately 3 hours and 24 minutes which isn't THAT BAD, considering we stopped quite a bit to talk to people. We met this dude at station 84 (halfway point of hike trail) and he was telling my brother and cousin about how the Malaysian Government is full of shit. He was an atheist too. What are the odds, right?

So the following are a combination of random shots my cousin, brother and I took on the way up.


At the top. IT WAS SO DESERTED. I'm sure many of you know that the Funicular Train has been closed indefinitely due to faulty wires and all, so there's no way up to the top except by hiking and by taking a 90 ringgit for a two-way trip up and down via jeep. Effed up, no? So yes, it was completely deserted except for random ninjas (if you catch my drift) roaming around. Hardly any stalls were open. Seriously people, do NOT go up there unless you want to hike for fun. There's NOTHING to do up there at the moment.

With the lack of people, the three of us adjourned to the temple area. We took NAPS, which was SO relaxing.

Me. Just Do It yo.

Seriously Just Do It.

Since there wasn't much to do at the top, we hiked down. But wait, there's more. We didn't hike down the trail we came up with. We walked down the TAR road (a.k.a. the jeep trail). It was so so so so so so SO tiring lah. We had to walk backwards for some physics related reason which my brother would be able to explain much better than I would. For further information please contact him at you_know_the_name@hotmail.com . The jeep trail allowed us to reach the bottom faster, around 2 hours. The jeep trail took us out to the Quarry Park area. (the place where the World Music Festival was held)

From there, we took a cab to Gurney Plaza. Watched The Clone Wars. It isn't AS BAD as reviews say it is. Entertaining, but I'd consider it no more than a guilty pleasure at this point. To people who don't know, The Clone Wars showing in theaters right now is apparently the first three episodes of the 3D Cartoon premiering on Cartoon Network soon. Hence, the graphics aren't that good.

After the movie, we WALKED to a bus station because our faith in the T304 line that stops outside Gurney Plaza was non-existent. Took a bus to Komtar and bus home from there.

'Twas a good day. Home now :)

Oooh school.

Hi, society. Gossip Girl here LOL. I'm KIDDING.

I've been watching Gossip Girl a lot lately and it's sadly addictive. If you're really bored and have nothing else to watch, watch it.

So... school was good today. A hell of a lot better than yesterday. Took more stupid diagnostic tests and got a few more people in the Editorial Board addicted to Skins. What is Skins you ask? I'll explain that somewhere along the way ;)

Chittesh wore his new UBER COOL uniform thing to school today! It looks damn awesome.

Check it outttttt. (LAUGH NOW)

Sometime during Physics, Chittesh. Harvinder and I decided to be HIP and COOL.

Thanks for the vid, Neoh.


Ok so things didn't work out THAT well. Pfft.

Apart from that, nothing really interesting. Oh wait there was that Muar Chee stall outside our school that was charging RM1.50 for a SMALL package of Muar Chee and a SMALL keropok packet thing for RM1. Isn't that just sad? The dude probably made RM50 just like that. So many students were buying from him. Lucky b*stardo.

Everything else is going pretty alright at the moment. No moroseness today =D

That's about it, folks. Keep watching the video if you're bored.

Happy birthday in advance, Niresh! :) popcorn.

till next time, xoxo. (this is not a permanent exit line)

That scout camp.

Sorry this took so long.

Firstly, if anyone was obfuscated as to why I wasn't able to blog during the previous weekend, it was because of my ASSTC (Annual Sea Scout Training Camp) that was held at my school. Honestly, it was the most fun I've had in a while. I think I'll let the pictures do the talking this time.


Day One.

So, introducing the Patrols involved...


The Venture Patrol (that's mine)


Dolphin Patrol


Beaver Patrol


and Otter Patrol (to the far left)


So, we had to check in and everything. Like a hotel, except no air-conditioning, no comfy beds, no pillows, no hot water, no television and no room service.Pfft.

Siew Chai had his say, wished people good luck yadayadayada

I want this guy to be the next Troop Leader people.

So during the "check in", I took a picture. (WOW)

Why are we ventures?


First competition up was Drilling. (marching)

Otter.


Dolphin.


Venture's formation. I know it looks like nothing great in this picture, but you should have seen how we formed it. =D

Oh. and then Beaver drilled. But you see.. the thing about Beaver Patrol...

We love toying with it's Patrol Leader...

Even if it means making him jump like soopahman =)

During intervals, I took pictures. (WOW)




Poser.

Checking out of the drilling competition...


SOME of the patrols made stuff that impressed me. LOOK MORE PICTURES! (WOW)

It's EYE (yes, it has one eye glows(oooooh))


Made out of chopsticks.


Very cool flag which SHOULD HAVE WON BEST FLAG.


Well that was day one. Very fun indeed. During the night, we ventures built our gateway and table out of bamboo (oooooooh) and talked and laughed and I really think that was THE closest I've ever been with them. So so cool. ANYWAYS,

WE slept off soon after, while the juniors kept building (heeheeeheeeeee) (I'm lame sue me)


Day Two.

IRON CHEF COMPETITION. Where I ze chef and ze assistant of mine ze Chuan Zeik Min is makingz ze foodz for ze peoplez of ze patrolz of mine. Well, not really. We all pitched in. Teik (not Zeik, Zeik is how a French would say Teik) Min brought a gas stove so that made our cooking a lot easier.

You want to see a picture right? (WOW)

WOW.

Not WOW.


Campsite inspection next.

Poor Beaver Patrol.

As for Venture Patrol...

OUR TABLE ROCKED =D (until Benjamin pfft) (inside joke)

Introducing the Y.M.C.A (the name of our gateway). It rocked out. It was made of steel for all I care. It was awesome. Btw, we named it Y.M.C.A. because we were singing that song when we built it. That gateway also served as a very good look out point during sunset and when we were bored, we would just sit atop that thing and talk and eat biscuits OMG I MISS THAT GATEWAY.



Ther Hoei. He's AWESOME. He knows stuff that nobody else in the troop knew. He was the troop leader in my troop for the year 1998. Having him come and visit during the camp was beneficial to say the least. Thanks, Ther.


CABARAN(torture) SESSION.
This is where we test the abilities of junior scouts. And well the only thing we ventures look forward to is the mud-crawl. Pictures again! (only of the aftermath because some of the pictures are really embarrassing for the juniors) (WOW)

Otter.


Beaver.(sorry Malcolm)(not)


Dolphin.


Campnight.

It was alright I guess. I learned this uber cool and simple game. We sang songs, and I acted as Black Santa (insider's knowledge only). I don't have a picture of me as BS yet, hopefully soon.

Group Picture. Sorry for the lack of light.

After campnight, most of the juniors slept off. Paul and I sneaked off to McD =D . I fell asleep within 10 minutes after arrival. So did Paul. This was at 11.30 PM. We got up at 1.30 AM. And walked back to school. And fell asleep instantly again!


Day Three, 6.30 AM.

Got up and freshened up and everything. Nothing really eventful happened in the morning. it RAINED after we cleared up all our stuff. Really good timing, God.

Trophies were handed out after the rain subsided. I'm not going to tell you which patrol won what. (hee hee heeeee) (I'm lame sue me again b*tch)

The trophies.


And that was that. Camp was dismissed and most left. Some went to McD for lunch and left after that. The End.

Now, I'm SURE you're all wondering what happened to the Y.M.C.A. It stood for so long, it managed to withstand the weight of 7 people.

Seven People, from left seated(clockwise): Zeik Min, Siew Chai, Chong, I, Cheang Huat, Edwin and Paul.

Alas, we had to clear the place up, and the Y.M.C.A. was brought down.

Too bad we didn't tell Cheang Huat about that first ;)

R.I.P. Y.M.C.A
