Open what house?

Bleah. Even TYH feels that the atmosphere ain't there,as compared to the previous years. Sure,lots of preparation and work was put into setting up the booths,pasting the posters and preparing the various performances,but there just isn't this "oomph" factor. And that was kinda reflected in the dismal number of people,as Phy puts it,"one-third of the past year's crowd",and was worsened by the bakingly hot weather and exhausted organisers. Plus,the stressed out Sec 4s are just two weeks from their final showdown,and many may choose to stay at home and mug for the last stretch of their four year journey. But whatever it is and no matter how it turns out,I'm sure everyone did their best and at least enjoyed certain parts of the day.

Cross outing yesterday...it was fun despite the obvious tension,but no blame on anyone,and just glad that everything is fine now. It was especially "bonding" when the five of us sat in a circle outside Marina Square,at one of the jutting out platforms and contemplating how painful it would be if it breaks off and all of us would be sent into a tumble onto the concrete and stone below. Ouch. Crazy thoughts from a bunch of crazy crossers who were just looking for a fun time out,being deprived of a movie and of bowling. Haha. In the end we just ended up talking about everything and anything under the sun-or rather,the moon,oh and the stars *looks at Jon Tan and Sarah*-and just simply getting a bellyful of laughs from everyone. Such a simple thing yet it did help bring us much closer. *smiles* Thanks to all crossers who made it,love ya all,for making it so meaningful...We rock man,haha. XD

I totally love Avril's current hit single,"when you're gone" with the hyper emo lyrics and detailed descriptions which fit current situations-how apt! It just wrings one's heart out and sends tears cascading uncontrollably...*wipes her eyes*

Heave a sigh of relief



Over. Officially over...no more tag-along,dangling,irritating Chinese paper following up behind the gush of heavy content-based subjects. *sighs* Not that it was an easy paper,but heck,when it is the last paper,you basically just want to get it over and done with,and who gives a damn about how tough it was?

Promos were...well...better than mid years for most papers...but there were still some head-scratching moments,like whether graphs were supposed to be drawn for certain ambiguous questions,and whether the personna was about birds or humans blah blah...Sheesh,guess it's too late to think about it,now that it's over yeah?

First day of training yesterday,after Chinese paper and made to whack 10km time trail. Ahh the starting off was really tough,all of us were like chionging man! And just push push push all the way...But again the feeling after it was really cool...like YEAH MAN I COMPLETED IT!

Thanks Sarah...oh my gosh thanks lots for accompanying me when I went to get my dose of natural "highness" situated at the canteen. It was really good,that feeling,and it's like a whoosh of exhilirating feelings that have been repressed so long...all the old,nostalgic feelings just kept bubbling to the surface,and tell ya what,it just felt good man. Ahh those good old days-I have yet to give them up! And I will not forget. If given a chance,I would have carried on with that "highness",just missed it sooooo much! I never realised that till now...oh...and it's going to be gone real fast,like sand slipping out of the grasp of my fingers uncontrollably. I can't help it,and neither can it stay. Guess everything's got its passing time yeah? *sighs* Anyway all the best for your "umbrella guy",hope everything goes out fine. If it doesn't,don't despair,and know that at least you have tried and there's nothing you can do on your part. It's better than regretting not doing anything and just keep waiting and waiting hopelessly you know...getting an answer is always better,trust me,I know how it feels to be in limbo,like at Dante's purgatory. It sucks.


Dali's work...freaking intriguing!
