Pictures Galore

My sincere apologies for the long hiatus. Its been a really busy fortnight with all the school activities coming in a mindless barrage that must drive any sane being perpetually nuts.
Since my last post, A lot has happened. Just gonna give a brief summary in words, Getting a little rusty with my language.

With the attendance of the Freshmen Inauguration ceremony(FIC) at NUS, I am now officially a member of the NUS student body. Yay! haha. The professors at the ceremony looked really impressive and intelligent with their round brimmed hat and robes. Kinda felt like I was in a costume party. Took a lot of pictures with my regular cam-whoring classmates and made my og mates wait for half an hour. Jasmine Tye took a photo with Me! haha. Had a nice dinner at munchies monkeys with Xin ling, Mish and Reh. When I told them i was going on a diet, they were dumbfounded. Whats wrong? Can't a guy go on one. Getting visible fat everywhere already.







Next up, Nussu Flag day. Pink was the theme and money was the dream. Business won Flag. With the most amount of money collected per capita. We were kinda flag crazy. Left school at 6am in the morning for AMK, had Gong lei, Ying Ying and Jia Li in my group. We started flagging at 7am after a breakfast of bak chor mee. Flagging from dawn till dusk. I managed to fill 2 tin cans with donations. Not a bad return. Considering I took lots of breaks in between. We had dinner at Ding Tai Feng. A fair reward for a hard days work. I finally tried Xiao Long Bao that day. No longer a mountain tortoise as Xin Ling likes to call me. Haha.

Dean's Evening, more photos. It was held at the Civil Servant's club at Bukit Batok. Had a lot of fun there, even went up on stage for some limbo rock action. I always get saboed by Pao Pan. Rawr. We won the best og award or best house, I can't really remember which, only that I was once again sent to the stage to collect our og prize. DVD movies. Most of them were horror flicks. Yuck, I would never allow my brain to be polluted with such insomniac fear that takes my beauty sleep away. Had a nice supper with xin ling, mish, wan ling, hansel, vivien and her bro. Thanks to Vivien, I now know Bukit Gombak has such a nice prata store.







Rag Day, The big moment for all the raggers who slogged their hearts out for this momentous event. Especially because we had a reputation to uphold and a Chancellor Shield to bring Home.
The presenters - Me included. haha We were sent to bed at 9pm. I volunteered to ensure that everyone went to bed. But oh oh, I ended up talking to Xin ling, Alan and Xing Yan for the better of 2 hours. In the end we only had a really short nap of 15min. Next, all of us had to put on makeup. All includes guys. Foundation, concealer, eyeliner, eyeshadow, glitter. Hmm, the things girls do to make themselves pretty. Oh well, at least now i understand why they can take so long to prepare for a trip out of the house. We got to the padang at 5am. Spent most of the time sleeping there. In the horrible weather. Was sweating like a pig. Thankfully, my costume was of really thin fabric and I had tights. Haha. Ok, i think the photos below will do more justice to the whole event. Enjoy. =)



















EPL started at midnight after the whole Rag day event. Liverpool was on at midnight. For the first time in four seasons. We managed to win our the first match on our calender for the season. Gerrard with the sweetest of a right foot made a goal out of nothing. An extraordinary freekick from an extraordinary captain. Once again, Liverpool's captain fantastic grabbed the game by the scruff of its neck and produced a victory from a drab draw. Aston Villa 1-2 Liverpool. Yippee.


Sunday - Playing my favourite sport just makes sunday a happy day. Footy all the way
School officially started Monday. 13/08/2007 Guess what, First day of school and I'm late for my very first lesson. Well, we only had one lecture. So after that we were all off to vivo for an adventure. Lunch was at a Ko Lo Mee restaurant. We had a Photowhoring sessions with Trogun there too. Talk about poseurs. Met up with Xin ling, Mish, Reh and Wan Ling at Sushi Teh. Had a long long chat, before we decided to move our asses. Had dinner at Cedele bakery. Lots of delicious cakes and pies. Finally went home at 9pm. I love Mondays, especially when they're so easy.

Watched secret on Wednesday with my classmates. It got kinda creepy in the middle and I tot it was going to be a horror movie. Thank goodness, it wasn't so. Turned out to be quite a romantic one in the end. Heard Jay Chou wrote the script. I'm amazed by the depth of it. Managed to catch the last bus home. Loving my bus concession pass.




Finally, the end of my summary. Jam and Hop. This is just crazy. I wanted to write a summary, somehow, i ended up with a super long post again. I haven't even posted my pictures yet. Before jam and hop, I went for Brazilian Capoeira Appreciation class. Its ultra funky. I'm super crazy about it. Imagine learning all those gravity defying stunts, combining them with music, nimble footwork and some awesome kicks. Simply beautiful. Managed to cab down in time for the Voting at jam and hop. Had a short old chang kee dinner with jia li. Before we took the cab. At least the entry to zouk was only 15 bucks. So it wasn't that bad. Klar and Jian Wei got thru to the final round. Congratulations. We cam whored again at Zouk. Now thats something not a lot of pple have a chance to do. Alright alright. I'm done with all this typing. Drowning away in a sea of words already. I doubt anybody's reading all my nonsense and rambling anyway.








Ta da da da..... Now for the much anticipated photos. *drum roll





O week - The day 16 guys from 16 different ogs had to cross dress at sentosa. I was saboed by my dearest og. Victimised and helpless. I managed to convince myself to be a sport for the better of an hour. haha. A saturday that I shall never forget.
