Woah woah woah!
Just got back from ODAC's Pumpfest subcomm trip to Malaysia Berkelah waterfalls!
It's an awesome trip!
Although I came back with loads of mosquitoes bites and scratches and scars and became a whole load tanner, I can't help but be happy and smile and be proud of myself!
This whole entire trip with everyone was really great and we had a lot of fun despite the super challenging trek and I am really glad and thankful that I am here, alive and blogging.

After school on friday, I met up with Tee Li in school to go to Kranji together.
We waited for bus 170 to go to Woodlands customs.
Bought groceries at Seng Shiong and I think it was a really fun experience! Haha give me shopping chances, somemore not I pay leh!:D
Then we ate a little here and there and then walking over to customs!!!
Cleared the customs though I had a little problem because I forgot to change my passport photo >.<
Slept on the bus while talking halfway to Joyce, Chia Lek and Tee Li.
Goodness me, now they know how much of a pig I am.

Reached Kuantan and had prata for breakfast.
I think it was the bumpy coach ride and the super lack of sleep that makes me feel nuaseated, making me barely able to swallow down my kosong single prata...
Zzz, then it's trekking time!
The forest trail was fine but then the rocky parts with the waterfall right next to me is really rather scary!
It's like if I fall, I will never be able to come back again! >.<
But must thank a lot of people especially the guys who pulled and pushed me along.
辛苦他们了。

At the first stop, which is the twin waterfalls, we played with the water and I went to climb up the waterfall along with most of the guys and a few girls.
I have no idea where my courage came from but yea, I went up.
With no security rope or anything, I climb onto a slope of about 60 or 70 degrees.
Then they said that they are running short of time and we had to go down.
Me... shocked into silence. How am I supposed to move down that vertical piece of rock when I a hung there in such a awkward position?!
But seriously, ODAC people are helpful like siao:D
Teck Kian asked me to step on his hand as a leverage. Goodness!
I slipped though and thank god both of us didn't fall because of that.
And Sean came sliding down, losing control and crashing onto my hand.
My hand is just bruised up and I am glad that he didn't come crashing down into me.
Otherwise both of us will just *poof*
Eventually Munir guided me down:D

Got taken away from pumpfest group halfway and was asked to trek faster because our balance not very good and are amateurs lo.
We caught up with trek comm but both of us dun feel good about it.
And asked to join back pumpfest.
It's just that I dun feel secure with Munir leading.
Sighs, and there is no bonding/interaction with pumpfest if both of us just went ahead.
So what if we can make it in time?
But Munir is nice la:D It's just that I dun really agree with his style on this issue. Haha and I stepped on his arm because I was frantically jumping aroung when the grasshopper flew towards me on saturday night.
ZZZ, felt rather guilty oops!

Clumsy me, slipped quite a few times and fall a couple of times here and there, scaring the hell out of my comm guys.
Well, they didn't know that I am super accident prone anyway, so cannot really blame them la.

But the scenery is really great! And we had loads of fun cooking and singing and HTHT-ing and playing loads of games!:D
There are so many things to say, but seriously when it comes to these issues, words are just simply too superficial to sum everything up.
I am glad that I went on this trip and get to know everyone more.
Am happy to be part of this team and had hell loads of fun at today's store cleaning too, joking and working and spraying tons of water!
And am really thankful that this bunch of people allowed me to realise that there is still meaning in uni life and that there are people in uni that I can at least be a little bit like myself in front of them:D

Haha not forgetting me dropping my slipper in the stream and screamed and shouted all the way whil hobbling down and tried to catch it.
Thank goodness Weihong caught it for me!
Woohoo! Three cheers to him!:D
AWESOME TRIP! ALLEZ!

Midterms came and went.
And the sudden realization that I went through half a semester hit me.
So fast.
I don't even have time to react to everything.
Don't even have the opportunity to participate in everything that I should.
And then I am having recess week.
So many things have happened, in such a short period of time.
I don't really know what to feel.
Suddenly, term papers and final exams are upon me and next thing I know, I will be taking the December break. And starting semester 2.
I am scared. Freaking scared.

All of these uncertain and insecure emotions seem to be flooding me so much that the happiness that I feel is rather shortlived.
Was really happy yesterday though when all the midterms ended.
And had yoga with the really nice instructor:D
And went out to JP to do some shopping and buying some really nice clothes and changing money for the Malaysia trip that I will be going later:D
Like woah right? Yes, I know. Like woah.

Perhaps it's because I think too much.
I just need something to distract myself.
I am not writing anymore. Why?
I feel sapped.

Woah, this birthday is rather amazing.
Goodness me, I am freaking 19 already.
Can you believe that?
One more year and I am out of the 1-s... I will be the 2-s!
Ohmygod, some vampire just bite me already and leave time as it is!

Had a family birthday party on saturday night, as usual.
With sushi and pretty eggtarts and cheese tarts:D
And received a pretty bag and a gorgeous GUESS bracelet and loads of money *KACHING*
Had a great time chatting with my aunts and uncles and so foolishly and funnily called my AH GONG as UNCLE. IMBA.
One month into school and I can't even recognise my own grandpa.
What is NTU doing to me huh?
Had fun fooling around with my cousins<3

Went out with 4I clique on sunday to lunch, kbox and dinner.
Had to thank them for pei-ing me on this day, when I turn an arwful 19...
Had BK for lunch and proceeded to katong shopping centre for some karoke!:D
It's been a long time since I hang out with the clique.
Feels so... Sighs, we used to be able to meet whenever we want.
And now we are so occupied with uni and ns... GRR!
But still, I feel really blessed to have met such an awesome bunch of people in my life <3

Had Hall 12's Freshmen Welcome dinner on tuesday.
Food's not bad and got a free t-shirt haha!
Then pamela managed to persuade me and anna to go join ODAC.
BECAUSE... both of us got rejected by ADdiction that we are CCA-less.
And if we dun join any in the first year, we will never get any experience.
So, we decided to travel all the way to can b for the subcomm interview.
Ho! And we ended about 11 plus and there is no more shuttle bus service and we had to walk all the way back to hall!
Ohmygod! Reminds me of fright night >.< *traumatised*
But thank goodness I got into pumpfest as liaison officer~
Ohmygod, but it seems rather surreal that I am going to commit to something.
I thought I am just gonna slack it off for the entire year.

Went to JP for dinner on wed night in hope for finding my backpack and anna's more formal shirt, and meeting my mum.
We went to walk around a bit and had beef noodle for dinner:D
And I bought a converse bag. Rather good cushioning and the design is by far the best that I have seen.
And then after dinner, it's left with me and anna to do her shopping for her shirt.
Yup, she got it in the end and we also went to the market place to look for some cheap and pretty stuff.
But too bad, none seems buy-able... Zzz
But I felt happy!~ It's been so long since I went shopping, and coming out of NTU just makes my day!:D

This week's yoga was alright amazingly, I thought the instructor is going to make my butt rot again.
After yoga, me and erjie went to can 2 to eat chicken rice and the honeydew milkcurd.
Goodness us, we just kept eating the entire night :p
We bought dragonfruit too and ohmygod, tons of other things such as sweets and puddings and milk and vitasoy!
And erjie showed me her special way of eating the dragonfruit like a banana! haha!
And we went to walk around in hall, thinking of whether we should join jcrc...
Then went to spy and wave at the cheer people haha and "mug" in my room. LOLS
But I was pretty much enjoying her company<3
And then anna came back from her dinner with KOI:D
And she was kinda terrified by erjie's amazing territorial skills hehehe laughed like siao!~
Then we went to HTHT in erjie's room:D Spilled secrets and I loved the mood:D
Life should be like that, filled with fun, laughter and love!

And friday is going-home day!
Went to talk and lag with pamela in her room while waiting for Jennie to pack.
And both of us went to JP for dinner and decided on Sakae in the end:D
Woohoo!~

Seems like my life is not too dull after all huh?:D
