You Are the Sunshine of My Life


He gave me the link to this video before he went to sleep.

The moment I opened the link and saw the title, I was crying even before I heard the song.

Unlike him, I never really appreciated jazz songs.
But I love this song.

Mecha kawaii!

I worked two shifts today! And the second shift, I worked for free!

Izah and Ningxing (?) were right, the first shift is usually very boring cuz there are no customers in the morning.

Was waiting for David after I knocked off, and refused to go downstairs to mug. So I stayed on. The customers were coming in like crazy and we were busy serving them! I don't care, I told him. One day we HAVE TO swap shifts.

(since our shifts are now fixed till the end of the month.)

He HAS to feel what its like doing morning shift.

When we finally left, my legs were aching, my eyelids were heavy, I got so tired and worn out that I really felt like I couldn't bear to move an inch more.

But it was all worth it!

I love working there, with kids and all.
  1. Oh, speaking of which, we encountered a super cute baby during his (or my?) shift. Joshua.. teehee. But it wasn't fair that whenever he looked at David he'd laugh and smile away then when he turns to me he will gimme a blur look. :(

  2. Another super cute baby vomited while his mom and aunt were asking him which Elmo he wants..

  3. A little girl cried her way out cuz her mom only bought her the Barbie Doll and not the Barbie Doll luggage bag. o__o
Basically, we just met cute kids all the way. (and some willful ones too.) And I now realise how much boys LOVE Bakugan. Yeah, you have NO POSITIVE IDEA what I'm talking about and what that is, don't you?


Some random things I wanna do:
  • meet AGEK for lunch/dinner/sleepover soon! But no time.
  • shop for Christmas presents! (do up list first.)
  • get a new camera.

[EDIT]

MUTHA!#$%@#!$%.
I hate it when people copy my phrases.
NNB.

Better to die an original than a fake, right?
Copying may be a form of flattery, but it IS the worst form.


Anyways. I suddenly smelt bread/something and thought of the cookie and bread that David bought/gave me. Hahaha the cookies that he spent the last of his money on to dabao for me from Mrs Fields (walao so expensive!) just cuz I said I felt hungry halfway during my shift.

Infact, these few days I've not eaten lunch OR dinner.

I survive a whole day on breakfast.

And I don't get hungry, AT ALL.

Okay tired, I'm gonna sleep.

[/EDIT]

Work!

Good morning all!

Shall do a quick one, cuz in 10mins time I'm gonna go meet David at the MRT station.

Working yesterday with him was awesome.

We were 1hr early so we took the sky trains back and forth from terminal to terminal, and we spent a lot of time walking through each terminal.

Our colleagues are quite fun, like Izzah, Tiantian, our supervisors Suchun (am I right?) and Jackson, whom David didn't really meet yet.

And its funny that my dad's my manager!

Jackson was asking me in Chinese, "You already know how to do cashiering right?" then he turned to Tiantian and said "Who taught her ah? Did anyone teach her?" then I said "Oh, wo de ba ba jiao de. (oh, my dad taught me.)"

Tiantian told him "Ohhh Ah-Neo jiao de!" (people always call my dad Ah Neo). Then Jackson was all, "HAHAHA, okay okay then you'll never be wrong! x)"

Me and David ended up with really, REALLY sore legs.
Tho on the way home his legs were okay while I was still complaining. :(

So we sat somewhere near my block to chat till 10plus. :P

He's so nice to accompany me to work early again today when his shift starts at 6. :( sorry man I feel so damn guilty! So I brought my Emath this time to do while waiting for him after work. Heehee.

So if anyone's free, you can visit meeee at the airport Terminal 3's Kidz Time shop, which is directly opposite Sakae Sushi! :)

Ciaos, gotta go if not I'll be late to meet him again.

Uchuu no mienai yoru

If you are lucky, and if you are the luckiest person on earth, the person you love decides to love you back. -One Tree Hill

I got this from Yining's blog. Was bloghopping around.

I kinda miss my shepherd and sheepmates! :(


Kerrie told me to sleep with long pants and I did just that yesterday night. Thanks Ker! It actually worked, despite the weather being so cold my legs didn't hurt at all.

Slept at 4am yesterday. Goshhhhh I told myself I'd sleep earlier but I ended up playing MSN games with someone instead. Haha, joker manzxzxz. I got him into Arashi songs too! (some only, sadly.)

Its okay, I'm working hard to spread the Arashi love! :):):)

I woke up at 2pm. Had a really weird dream that I woke up and lost my voice and my maid, Gerald and Dee were laughing about it. Ohgosh.

And when I REALLY woke up when Aunty Tun opened my room door telling me "Gwen, wake up, 2 o'clock already leh!", I thought I really lost my voice. =.=

La-la-la-la-la love song~

I'm listening to LA・LA・LA LOVE SONG by BoA.
And I'm not sure how Dashboard Confessional's Stolen and Black Eyed Peas's Dum Diddly appeared under my list of BoA songs.

iTunes, you epic fail.

Tuesday, December 09, 2008

Eff!

My bro's phone sucks. I'm like, ancient Nokia much! The screen's so friggin' dusty that I can't see it when I'm under the sunlight cuz it'll shine on the dust.



Watched Wild Child with Ker.

Ate the fish and vege in the soggy container of fish soup that was meant to be my lunch like what, yesterday? And had popcorn and durian shaved ice with Ker. Our lunches, yum much.

I'm not hungry. At. All.

I'm meeting Ker and Mel for dinner at Suki Sushi.
Yeah, at least thinking of sushi makes my mouth itchy.

Gonna bathe now.
Stupid bird and bird poo. Idiotic beeyotchhhhh.

Even tho Aunty Tun says my hair only has white stuff but it doesn't smell like it would be bird droppings, I'm still effing taking it as it IS birdshit.

Replay, Replay, Replay.

If it wasn't 6:25AM I would be screaming my lungs out now.

The weather's so cold that my right leg is hurting like @$#%!#@$#!!! Hurts so much that when I woke up at 5plus and replied smses, I couldn't go back to sleep cuz I feel like I'm gonna cry.

Listening to SHINee songs now.
Especially SHINee World.

.

.

.

CAN I LIKE SCREAM NOW??

My leg's hurting like crazy!

Okay whatever, tahan. It'll be okay once (more like if) the weather turns warmer.


He thinks I'm anorexic because I didn't eat anything yesterday.
Nor did I drink anything.

Okay not totally, I ate like a handful of Doritos at Quin's place.

Didn't eat breakfast, lunch and dinner cuz I wasn't hungry. Only drank one cup of milo for the whole day, and at Quin's place, a canned mango drink. Watched David have dinner with Aaron at Carl's Jr., and he was like forcing me to take his fries.

Aaron took the train home while me and Dee bused to AMK.

Slept throughout the bus ride listening to BoA.

My parents made me try to eat something when I got home, so I heated up what was supposed to be my breakfast - hot dog sandwich. I burnt it in the microwave. Smart much.

The hot dog literally exploded I tell you.

It was so hard that my fork couldn't pierce thru the hot dog AND the bread.

Was so tired I didn't come online but cuz I kept smsing, I was awake till like 3AM and ended up dozing off.

But funny how something I mentioned out of being-bugged's-sake led to something else.


p.s. I might be phoneless till next week cuz my handphone can't charge! :(

So if you wanna sms me, you can do so but if I don't reply you, I'm not dao-ing you. Infact, I'm using my maid's phone now but returning it later. Of course my number, not hers, duh.

(psst, call me at my house phone if you really need to.)

My mom's bringing me to get a new phone next week. Sigh, I want to wait for my contract to end cuz the phones now aren't really nice. I feel like getting my maid's phone tho, the Nokia XpressMusic slide up phone.

Love Like Oxygen

Been watching So Nyuh Shi Dae's TV series, Factory Girl!



Can't tell you how much I envy them, being able to be interns for ELLE Girl mag!

I didn't wanna blog today, but something made me motivated to.

I seriously despise people who copy me.

Especially about things on my blog.
Got that?

No originality, go bang a wall and die. (Trademark)

Anyways, can't wait to see Ning, Mubarak and Teng during training on the 22nd! Well, I hope they'll come anyways. Sailing's not really much fun with them missing.

Listening to SHINee's song Real for the first time now.

But I still prefer Love Like Oxygen (also his reco) and Pretty Noona Replay.

Funny how I thought I was the only person who knew SHINee, till I saw that he bookmarked their song on Youtube.

JONGHYUN'S SO HOT. HOT. HOT. HOT!!

I wanna watch Twilight.

Why must it show next Thursday and not this Thursday? We plan to go after ending work, so its like 12AM. Midnight movie! How long has it been since I caught a midnight movie? But since my shift ends roughly 5hrs earlier, I'm gonna wait around in the airport by mugging. 5hours of mugging.. well its possible.


Shocking things (to me):
  1. I actually did 3 questions of Emath today, but got so tired I fell asleep.
  2. I woke up at 9.20pm and didn't wanna have dinner cuz I'm not hungry, seriously!
  3. And I only had one proper meal today which was breakfast. I didn't finish that either. I had 4 sashimi sushi's for lunch but was too lazy to carry on eating.
  4. I didn't finish my dinner either.
  5. I'm in my mugging mood!
So yeah. I actually have all my stationery sprawled out on my table with my Math textbook and my exercise book. :) I feel so good even tho I've only done 3 questions!

And oh, I've been down with fever this morning, so I didn't accompany Rach to her flea thingy at Tanjong Pagar even tho she said "Please, with a cherry on top?". Sorry hun! :( didn't mean to ps you today!

Bored

I'm so bored and I'm like replaying SHINee's song Love Like Oxygen on Youtube over and over again. And oh, Pretty Noona (Replay) too! My favvv.



I love Jonghyun! I think he was the one who made me bother listening more to this group even before they debuted at the middle of the year.

CUZ WE SHARE THE SAME BIRTHDAY,
Only he's 3 years older. (and also cuz he's cute!)

Usually the stars who have same birthdays as me are lao people.

5:03AM already and I'm not asleep!

Using my bro's computer account too. And the Firefox is giving me problems like it did before I reformatted it. What the hell. Lenovo sucks.

"Whatewer, I donch care la whore."

Hahaha. Our spammed saying while we were at Batam.

I feel like Mapling, but my dad will kill me. The TV's still on outside, bet he fell asleep watching the Man Utd vs -someweirdclubidk-. Watch to watch Man U. lose I guess. :)

Arsenal all the way!
.. and Nasri all the way!

Greatly, Terribly, Truely.

Back from Batam!

No pictures cuz we didn't do anything much, except slacking around the house to watch TV, eat, sleep, nap, be pigs.


Today me and Ning fasted! HAHAHA.

We woke up at about 1.30plus, and re-watched Love Guru while the guys had lunch.

We didn't drink any water or eat anything? On the ferry I was drinking soya bean milk since Dee told me to at least buy something to drink since he felt guilty that I didn't eat, and then I realised that was the first drop of liquid I had since all day!

Yesterday night we slept damn late cuz we watched Love Guru and Zohan. Well, we didn't finish watching Zohan cuz we all ended up chatting away/sleeping/almost sleeping.

The night before, Mubarak said he saw a ghost when he was walking down the stretch of houses, and he got freaked out and ran back to tell us. David was like, "What? What dirty thing? What you talking about??" =.=

And while we were watching Love Guru, the door opened itself.

Thing was, we closed it properly. We all heard the doorknob clack open, and its not like the door flung open, it just slowly creaked open and we thought David's mom came in.

FREAKY!

So we all kept waking up in the middle of the night (and at first we couldn't sleep nor did we dare to turn off the lights).

Or at least, I heard chatting except Teng. Ning and Iggy were like, laughing?

I kept waking up, and I heard mosquitos fly past my ear!! WHAT THE HELL.

The sound is just damn freaky! Three times somemore. I got damn freaked out by that buzzzz-ing sound. But I just drifted back to sleep.

Then I woke up to Dee watching Spongebob, at a time that felt like it was 6AM?

Yellow Cheesebun lover!

Starting work this Thursday with Dee! YAY!

Video Spam

Shocked! I seriously thought I gained weight from all the snacking instead of eating proper meals (not hungry!) the past 2 or so days.

But infact, I lost weight! HA HA HA.

That aside. Batam tomorrow! But my parents don't know its tomorrow.

I feel like putting orders for the schoolbooks instead of buying it all by myself, but its like 8bucks for delivery? Nah its fine, I'll be back Sunday anyways.

Ning's only going on Thursday cuz she has training.

Gambatte ne my dear (princess-y) senior! :) Victoria JC's sailing training looks hard, but knowing you, you can pull it off. Hopefully you won't be in the same class as those people from other schools' sailing teams that you don't like, but yeah.

One year gone, one year left.

The big fat O's.. ugh.

I seriously need to get myself into mugging mood once I'm back from Batam, no more playing, Gwendolyn Neo!

(And oh, I find it funny that my name's pronounced GwendolEN instead of GwendolYN. Like what the hell, if its pronounced Len why isn't my name's spelling Gwendolen.)


We're finally seniors!

Which reminds me of how old I am (going to be). Sigh, time flies when you're mugging! AND having fun. Reminds me, yesterday we were talking about who to put in to talk to the parents and kiddos at CCA exhibition, and we were talking in terms of next year.

So when we said sec3, it meant the sec2s this year.
When we said sec2, it meant the sec1s this year.

And we? We're finally sec4.

I don't know why and why I'm babbling on and on about this issue here on my blog, but its so.. mind-baffling? Don't you think so? I mean like, we're finally seniors.

And this time next year, instead of thinking "We're finally seniors", I'll be thinking:

"I'm finally graduating."

Then you'll need to gimme a tissue.

OKAY ENOUGH OF BABBLING.
I need to stop doing that on my blog!

Time for videoooos.




Monica Parales, from Team Millenia Jrs.

Like omg, total inspiration much! I love her.
(So do many others on youtubeee.)

Never really got tired of watching that choreo of hers.
Infact, I never get tired of TM's choreographies and their lovely family-like bond.

I wish the dance schools I attend have bonds like that.
But we don't.



Monica & Sharlene, also from TM Jrs.

Another choreography I never got tired of. :)

Dance videos aside, Akanishi Jin's pretty cute!



Like, hahaha. He's hilarious! You should watch the other videos of the same interview with him. At 0:58 of the video you can see the guy in white beside him imagining him with just a towel wrap. Freaky much.

And the girl beside the guy in white looks familiar..

Isn't she the one who was with Matsujun on the vid with the starch when Aiba was doing his Aibaland segment?




So cute! Chinen of Hey! Say! Jump! loves Ohno-kun.
See how he keeps on mentioning Ohno-kun.

HSJ! hasn't appointed a leader right? Since they are kinda new.

Maybe Chinen wants to be riida of HSJ!. Cute!

And oh, did I ever post up this video of the Johnny Entertainment's Juniors?

Its when members of Arashi were still JE Juniors! MUST WATCH.
I faved it so long ago too =.=

EILEEN, CHECK NINO OUT. He's so good in this!
Matsujun was super cute epic-failness. Hahaha. Love himmm.



Even Yamapi's in it. Don't think Oguri is tho.
Wait, Oguri's under Johnny's Entertainment right.

okay last vid!



Super cute right the JE people.

I'm starting to like Yamapi and Jin (Akanishi Jin la) more and more.

Hotness

I'm surprised how easily my parents agreed to letting me go Batam, especially since its this coming Wednesday.

I told dad, "Okay ah dad I start work next week ah!"
My mom's like, "I thought she will start this week?"
I said, "This week I'm going Batam. :)"
"Huh then liddat one week, like that might as well don't work liao?"
My dad's like, "Its okay la, I can give her more days to work."

:)


Metaphorically, I didn't ASK my parents whether I could go Batam.

I made it sound like I AM going. ;)

But yeah my mom told me, "Gwen, when you go Batam can you buy back chili? Those small Indonesian ones? Yeah. You tell his mom la, see if you guys come across it help me buy okay?"

So I'm taking it as a "Yes, you're going" statement.

I just hope my sorethroat, cough and sneezing won't get in the way of fun.
Ning! I'm hoping you'll go man.

I wanna borrow his com to watch my Bambino! and Kimi Wa Petto!
*achooo!*

But I'm still quite bummed about not getting same shifts at work as Dee.

And oh, my nickname from Aaron, Gee, is now official.

Two people are calling me that! Hahaha.

I'm pretty sleepy and I've helped him do a bit of the speech? I find it cliche but ah whatever, sounds okay to me. Just hope it'll get the attention of parents and sec1s alike.

I LOVE Jeff Viray's choreographies!


Yeah its official.

I loved it long ago but hey, I'm rewatching most of it now.

How I wish I could go to join Team Millenia Jrs. :( it'd be a dream come true!

And I'm planning to start on a choreography of Can We Chill by Ne-Yo! Haha, how long has it been since I choreographed Like A Boy?

.. VERY.


p.s. Here's something to spice up my blog, literally.

*throws chili at laptop screen*

Nah, kidding.

Hakuna Matata

Happy December the 1st!

Since I can't sleep, I'll blog.

Hi.

Okay. I'm sleepy but I refuse to sleep. Not yet, anyway. I've got a lot of things on my mind right now and I'm pretty fustrated.

Would it be.. surprising if I said I wanted answers?

-------------------------------------
Anyways, can't wait to go Batam again!

Iggy wants to make it Tuesday / Wednesday, 'till hopefully Sunday morning? THINK ABOUT WAKEBOARDINGGGG!

I swear I'm gonna work my ass off to get Sony T77, since they're cruel enough to not sell my T200 anymore. But why not, T77 is a sweet deal especially with the Christmas deals up and goin'.

Dad says I'm most likely gonna start work soon! HAHA, awesome!

But he said for David he'll have to check again? Cuz David might need to work longer/later hours than me, so we'll most probably be in different shifts. What the hell?

I want to work longer hours, especially till closing!

I think I'm the only crazy crapper on Earth who loves to do closing.

Stupid Ice Cube, Mel and Ker called me up telling me Suresh needs people to work cuz a lot of people either:
  1. Quit
  2. Sick
  3. Away on holiday

Hahaha, its your problem Suresh! :)
Who asked you to give me the job then never call me anyways, huh?

.

.

.

K fine I just realised my blog is too open to rant about how fustrated I am.

I'll hop off to Livejournal. Seeya! :)

Hearts All Over The World Tonight / 1111th Post

Okay, just edited my blog posts title.

Its dumb, cuz if I just tweaked it a lil, the font would be like what it is now. I didn't know, so I kept adjusting it, from 11px to 140%.. all that jazz.

=.=

I'm not used to it yet but whatever, leaving it as it is for now.

I need to buy a new battery for my laptop soon! I can't stand seeing it at 0% all the time, its just so annoying. At least I'd be able to bring out my laptop without the charger next time.

I reformatted my laptop again yesterday night! :(

I think I'll install the Sims 2 again, but my laptop's super laggy!

But someone'll have to give me their code to use since Muhd lost the paper which contains my code number on it. Blah!

I love the song "Tonight" by FM Static, and was spamming it while SMSing and reformating my laptop. :):):) really lovely song.

okay, I'm hungry now.

Haven't eaten lunch yet. Hahaha!

Going moderately insane,

You tell me, you tell me!

HOW CAN A CAMWHORE LIVE WITHOUT A CAMERA.

Okay joking, but I seriously can't live without Cammie!

I used my old camera to take pictures of my wounds, wanted to post it up.

But now comes the interesting part:
I can't find my cable for the camera!!


I woke up at around 1pm-ish, and so I've not had my breakfast OR lunch.

Yet, I'm surprisingly not very hungry!

I feel like changing my blogskin to one thats premade and uploaded by the Blogger team. You know, those really plain ones? I saw one that http://spinningbecauseimawesome.blogspot.com/ is using, and the blog title just.. how you say.. captured my heart?

And my phone died out on me, and is going bonkers!

Firstly, an sms that David sent out at 11pm was received by my phone only at 5.42am!

Then, it turned itself off about 3 times already. And like his phone when we were in Thailand, the battery drained out when we didn't even turn our phones on!

Yeah, lemme do a victory dance cuz this phone's 4 years old.

But I've got no idea what phone to change to. Maybe I'll stick to getting an iPhone?


p.s. Wow, majority of my blog viewers aren't from Singapore, but USA! Hahaha! At least 54%. And 40 people viewed it at 8am. *gives huh? look*

Sailing camp @ Krabi, Thailand!

Note: EDITED! ALL PHOTOS COURTESY OF MS CHENG, since my photos are gone with my dear camera.

Hello world! I'm back from sailing camp @ Krabi, Thailand! :)

We did caving, kayaking, snorkling, deep water solo, rockclimbing, abseiling..


I'm thankful to have such a lovely and family-like bonded sailing family and wonderful teachers-in-charge, because thanks to them we had our camp in Thailand instead of school, and the camp was successful!

But yeah, the sec4s got back their Level 1 already. :( will miss them!

I'm back with 16 mosquito bites, 11+ cuts (especially one from this morning's caving activity that made me look like I slit my wrists cuz its a cut thats longer than half my arm) and 2+ blueblacks.

But all thats worth it.

Oh, but losing my camera wasn't.

And it was lost in transit from our first staying area to the kayaking area, which makes me feel more pissed! Like, why was it MY bag that the uncle dropped out all the things from??

DAY 1

"bus" ride with the luggage.

MOOOOSH!

We kayaked to this island with loads of crabs.

And David did crab fishing with a water bottle. :)

Why so serious, Joseph?

DAY 2

When we opened our curtains in the morning, this was the scenery we saw.

Then we packed up and took the boat down to another place for kayaking, again.

Yup, these rocks and stuff were directly above our heads while kayaking.

Cool, or what?

Mrs Koh's trained us Pure Geog students too much, cuz wherever I went during the kayaking trip was,

"How was this formed?" "Why is it like that?" "Are the rocks pourous?"


It rained after we went to Krabi from our kayaking island. After the rain stopped we went to have a "small" trek (as according to someone) that lasted for like more than 2 hours?

We went up this side of the mountain then back down, on to a beach, walked past resorts that looked oh-so-comfy, and past 2 more beaches.

And I did it all without shoes!

Well, except the climbing of the mountain thing.
After that I washed my feet in the sea water so I refused to put my shoes back on.

So my feet hurt pretty bad and numb cuz of the pebbles on the beaches and all. David was walking beside me the whole time, so the poor dude had to listen to my "OUCH-es" and "OOOPFH!-es". :P

End up he forced me to wear the shoes he was wearing. Thanks! :)

Belle saw a chicken and she started doing the "bok bok bok!" sound chickens make thruout the day. LOL.


DAY 3

3rd last day started with Deep Water Solo and Snorkling/Beaching.


A chicken woke us up at like 5.30am Thailand time k.

It still went to every area the girls were sleeping in to give us a wake up call, and we all got annoyed at it lol.


We climbed like, super high? 2 stories+ high? Idk.

Oh, the kick?

No ropes and no support. :)

I climbed 3 times, only reaching the top at the last try.

Determination really DOES help, cuz I told myself, "Okay we're going for lunch, and I'll be really damn peeved if I don't climb all the way to the area and experience jumping off it!"

And regardless of the cuts from the first try, I just pushed myself.

The jump was... I can't describe it with words!

It felt like, I was committing suicide? Except for it was killing myself by landing on the deep waters below. Its like, you don't hit the water immediately.

There's this split second that you're hanging in the air and you're thinking,
Am I there yet?


Guys trying a different route than the one shown by the guides.

See where David and Ryan are?

Thats the high part I climbed till on the 3rd try.


Idk what Ryan was doing..

But he jumped so...

Jump David, jump! :)

Aaron J. jumping.


Me and Mr Shoo jumped together.

Thanks for all the encouragement! :)

No, don't ask me what they were doing either.

After that we had lunch on the boat, and went snorkling and beaching.

It was the best!

It felt made me feel like I was in Loola again,
Joseph agreed with me. :)

I didn't snorkle since there was nothing much besides the nice fishes that ate all the rice we couldn't finish.

We just sat out at sea, lying down on our lifejackets. Or just stayed on the beach, playing SANDball fights and all. Awesome.

And oh, not forgetting catching waves!



Since we finished snorkling etc early, we and went down to have Ryan's mango sticky rice.

It ended up raining, so we were stuck there, giving the aunty business since we all thought the bbq chicken was gooood.

I only bought mango sticky rice, which I shared with David.

Then he bought chicken and gave me a whole drumstick after he ate how much he wanted. I was like, omg thats a lot! then he and Ryan said they could finish it in two bites.


DAY 4

View from the cave of the route that the other 2 groups took, I think.


Today morning was rushed, cuz we had to leave by around 2pm+ to catch our 8pm flight. The boat ride+bus ride was like, total of 4hours?

Our cave route was shotened, and before it we did rockclimbing.

In my group only Aaron and Yanling made it to the top. I hit my knee and like, couldn't continue already since I had a blueblack and a lot of cuts from the Deep Water Solo from the previous day


Caving = we go into a cave. And oh, abseil down from it which is at least.. about 8-9 stories high? Okay it felt like it.

This was how high up we were when we were going to abseil down.

As in, this was what we could see!
NOT that we were as high as the mountains in the picture!


I ended up crying because while going up the cave, it was super dark and the sand was super fine. I fell backwards and slid downwards.

Can you imagine? You falling down when you know if you kept sliding downwards, you would end up falling from a damn high height?

Okay maybe I started getting scared when I saw a plank.

I thought I had a phobia for nothing, but from this camp I found out I am terribly afraid of crossing bridges/ladders made of planks/bamboos.

Abseiling down.

The guys were laughing at me cuz the moment guide Alex told me to release my hands, my face "totally changed", and Ms Cheng started snapping pictures.

You can kinda see how nervous I was the moment he said,
"Okay now you release your hands".



The guy's accommodation for the 2nd place was much better than the girl's, can you believe it?? So we hung out at their place for the last few days.

Besides that, the nights at Krabi were fun.

We mostly spent our nights after dinner walking around to the restaurants and roadside stalls near the beach.



Yeah, I think I'm still laggy and sleepy from the plane ride back.

The bus ride was around 2hrs. I fell asleep as soon as the bus set off to the Phuket airport and I woke up with my neck hurting cuz my head ALWAYS moves when I'm not sleeping beside the window. Again, poor David was sitting beside me so I think his shoulders suffered a bit. Sorry, and thanks! :)

Well,

THANK YOU & KUDOS TO MS CHENG, MS CHEW, MR SHOO, MR YEO AND MR NARA!
You teachers are the most fun. :)

And oh, Ms Claudette too!
