[Jo's Belated B-day Hang-out] So i finally get to see some of my jc friends.Where else but the part of the world my jc's in.Haha.Been some time since i saw them and i was over in the east.As usal, little miss punctual was there early.Haha.We sorta decided to go for the buffet at Hei Sushi.
Alright.That was my first time ever eating Jap food.Considering that i'd never be able to eat the real japanese cuisine,this is as close as i can get to tasting it.Well.I'd have to admit that it's pretty new experience(don't laugh!).And it also needs some getting used to.Next time, i'll stay away from anything with seaweed in it as much as possible.I don't like it.Nor do i hate it.Must have acquired it from childhood when i didnt like the taste of the seaweed being stuck to the top of my mouth when i ate a piece.All in all, i kinda like the aftertaste.I don't mind going there again with my other friends.Hehe.
It was nice seeing them again.Everyone is a little different.Haha.Anyway,we walked around a bit.And 3 of us bought bags from a pushcart at the ehub thingy.Yeah..A bagpack for school! Now i need a go-out bag.
Oohh..I got some おみやげ(?) from jocelyn. A magnetic postcard thingy from studio ghibli's store and some cookies!!OMG! I love jap's cookies. They taste soooo goood.Too bad royce chocs are expensive and my dad stopped working for that family-else i'd get it every christmas.Oh well.The cookies were gone by nightfall xp.
[Cycling recce #2] Well, i was preeetty reluctant to go.I reeeeallly dislike the Slope of Surrender over at pasiris,beginning near ehub.But after a bit of consulting with dorance, i decided to go.I was free too anyway.
As usual,we all met as bedok interchane.I was a bit late.But not the latest.Me,dorance and kimbee were the only gollum girls there.Come to think of it, the total number of girls in the group was,5-6?Woah.Haha.
I didnt eat breakfast, so i was a bit dismayed that we weren't stopping at bk first.We didnt even stop at kitrunner.So i suppose they have a new bike rental place.Haha.Yeap.I was delighted to see that they stopped at the PCN Pitstop thing.That means....we can rent a bike from east coast and return it at another PCN Pitstop.I prayed hard that it'd be the sunplaza park one..oh well..that's a bit too optimistic.
We were all prepared.We put on sunblocks and went off.Haha.Chatted a bit while cycling too.Haha.So all in all, we cycled the usual route from ECP to changi.Heard that ntu banned cycling on the roads-i don't see the reason to cycle on the road in the first place.Haha.Oh.I named a couple of parts of the cycling trail that i did/didn't like. Upslopes are Slopes of Surrender.Downslopes are Trails of Thrill.Haha.Trail of Terror is the stretch of trail from ehub all the way till slightly after the left turn.Haha.You don't get what i mean do you?Maybe i shall take you there?
I was pretty surprised that the PCN Pitstop is just after changi village.We took like about half the time we usually take to travel from ECP to somewhere else back to ECP.Yeah!!My butt haven't even started to complain.=D.
Of course.My highlight of the whole cycling adventure has to be the stop at sunplaza park.SWINGS!!How i love them.Feeling my butt being lifted off the seat of the swing is scary and yet,exhilaring at the same time.Haha.I saw a pic that zongtang took.Man.My swing was like making a 90degrees angle to the ground.Awesome or what?!All hail meee.Hahaha.
I had fun.Enjoyed the company.Haha.Night cycling shouldn't be too bad rite?
[NDP ushering] I don't remember if i've posted anything related to this.Oh well.Here goes.
This time round i'm in R1.Grandstand all the way.This time round there are games which are kinda fun for the briefings.And the people in my group are really easy to talk to.Haha.But the difference with R1 and the R3 i was in is, R3 is more careless,crazy and hyper.R1 is more calm,cool and collected bunch of people.Of course!We'll be attending to the VIPs.It does intimidate me a little.がんばります。
CR3 was allright.We haven't gotten our uniforms yet so we were given this yellow top and we wore our own jeans.It was quite comfy.I got sooo tired after dinner,that i didn't have enough energy to be all genki to say goodbye to everyone walking past me.Hey.It is strange if i say 'Goodbye!Thanks for coming!!' while there's a bottle neck happening and they are all still standing right in front of me when i finish saying. Haha.But those who were there weren't the real VIPs so they're pretty nice.No.I'm not saying that the real ones will be difficult, but i think that it's better to be mentally prepared.
Got the uniform already.Veeryy red.Now i'm pretty stuck between a rock and a hard place.Mid-thigh length shorts or long baggy pyjamas-like pants.I think i'd have the shorts.Easier and more comfortable to move up and down the stairs.Long dryfit pants feels a bit...odd.I'll see how.The admin people still haven't gotten back to me.I'll see about it tomorrow.Hope they're not angry at me or something.If i like the shorts, yu ling doesn't mind switching with me xp.
We'll see how it goes =D.
[Other thoughts] Alrighty.I'm gonna look for a new blogskin that will work in mozilla firefox.Have i complained to you before that my internet explorer and my msn messenger are pretty much useless?And do you know how long it takes for my 2year+ laptop is taking to get online after i switch it off? At least 1hour!!Thank goodness for my eeepc.Despite it being short on memory, it connects real well.And the msn works.And the IE works.Too bad the keyboard is a bit awkward to type in detailed blog entries like this.Else i'd rather not switch this laptop on.Haha.
Fixed my timetable.It's pretty sucky, but at least i have 2 other friends with the same timetable as me.I hope it'll prevent me from crossing paths with a certain someone.Man.Rachel must be glad to go into MAE.Please oh please transfer into EEE!!!That'd make my stay in uni sooo much more pleasant!
Oh.Note to self-Score nothing less than a B+ for the rest of my uni life.
