Chinese Gardens...

SO school resumed yesterday. what an utterly boring day. like today was much of a difference. except for the fact that CNA filmed us during PE and Bio. it was so cool. i love being the media. nah, joking. haha. honestly. we were suppose to fin pe early, but because my frens and i werent with the class, we came in late, and the class was already changed, and deputy principal was alr ther. i was like SHIT. haha. i rushed to the toilet and changed. and rushed back. tried to wipe the perspiration off as effectively as i could. haha. i tried to act naturally. and look scholarly. HAHA. what a joke. anyway, it airs tmr on CNA. looking forward to that. anyway, after school today. we decided to go to chinese gardens after hanging around in school. it was a spontaneous thing. it was alr quite late. but somehow we made it there. the journey alone was like, an eternity. i am never again gg so far on public transport to such an ulu place with my heavy schoolbag. haha. once we got there, and on the way there, we made a fool of ourselves as usual. we ttly let loose at chinese gardens though. chasing each other on top of a 7-storey pagoda (the risk of falling off the balcony was extremely high), screaming at the top of our voices at said pagoda, and many other, um, lawless things. HAHA. basically, we just let loose like lunatics. expurgate the stress from the previous weeks. aaaaaand of cos, pics!

Eclairs...

ON a more recent note, our class' teacher's day party was held on monday, and i had volunteered (sabo-ed isaac) to bake dessert. i was, naturally, unduly stressed to produce a sterling dessert. sigh. so i decided to go with the french safety eclairs. so went hunting for ingredients and teachers day gifts on friday when prelims ended. spent the weekend cracking my head making sure everything was perfect. and here is the outcome. it still wasnt frozen yet, which is why the choc looks molten. >.<

salivate...

Orchard Central...

So after school on one of those days, we went to orchard central, and snuck our way up to the roof. it was strictly no entry except for authorised personnel. which we clearly weren't. haha. it was so much fun. the view from the rooftop garden is fabulous. i just had to post it. here.









Events...

OK so there have been a few events which i have neglected to expound on, thanks mainly to my prelims. so its a completely valid excuse. first up on the list: me being sick like a dog. it was ages ago. cant remember when. heres the pic with me in solitary confinement. it was before i shaved. look at my beautiful locks.


Ok, up next is the Ceramah Arif Budiman (a malay language and cultural seminar). informative and illuminating. and the speaker made it sufferable. thankfully. i was worried how i was gg to understand a few hours' worth of malay. pics.





Following that, is the Leonardo da Vinci exhibition at the science centre, which was a highly edifying and captivating exhibition. honestly. i loved it. pure testament to the renaissance man's ingenuity.









K, thats abt it for now for events.
