every experience begins with the first step: njc orientation 2008-STEP UP

ytd was a really long day in school because we stayed from 7.30am till 9.30pm. we had the usual stuff like mass dance, og bonding, gang bonding etc in the day. it was pretty fun during mass dance because we've finally completed all 2 official dances and learnt the third one. although i really do have super poor memory which results in me relying on others for the next dance step, it was nice to just sweat it out and have fun. plus it was cool that i didn't have to dance with any guy for this week's mass dance sessions cause the twins held on to me tightly to prevent us from being seperated. and as for yesterday, weiwen and i held on for dear life too so that parvan wouldn't drag us to join another og. from past experience, it isn't as much fun dancing with a guy. esp when he's so anti social and doesn't take the initiative to do anything. mummy reckons it's just because i'm too used to being in an all-girls environment. hahs. but guys can be such 'jerks' at times. (oops if i offend anyone!)

so anyway, we had dinner at al ameen behind beauty world. and i can hereby conclude that cheese mushroom prata + curry + teh bing=very bad combi because i felt like puking so badly after the meal. i dont know if it's because of the excessive oil from the prata/curry or was it because of some funny reaction of curry and teh bing. but whatever it is i felt so uncomfortable. )= and just when we were about to finish our meal, it started to rain cats and dogs so we were stranded there for about 15mins while waiting for the rain to die down. in the end we resorted to running in the rain when it died down to a drizzle. but my second pair of sports shoes for the day still got soaked through and i was left with slippers for the rest of the night. luckily i brough extra sport shoes and slippers.

moving on, campfire night was cancelled because it was drizzling/ground was wet. ))= so we had dance party instead. initially we were still trying to dance because the hall was pretty cool with ALL lights off plus disco lights and smoke. but i couldn't really stand the pounding of music against my eardrums plus i didn't know of any cool dance moves to groove to the music so i kept escaping out of the hall. and so it got pretty boring for me. and i conclude that i wont like to go clubbing next time because the whole noisy, stuffy and sweaty environment do turn me off. i hate it especially when someone sweats so much and accidentally touches you. the sweat gets on you and it's just plain gross. oh wells. just my personal opinion on this. and in any case many of the guys were trying to hit on girls and that was q disgusting too. lucky i didn't stay in there for long. there was once when i went in alone to try to look for some people and this group of cat high guys tried to dance with me. like WTH!

decided to go crash HC campfire instead. which was pretty cool cause they got a fire! i wanted to see a proper fire so badly ever since crescent's campfire on friday. but of course the main motive was to see my darling edwyna baby. ((= gosh i miss you so much. although we stood rather silently for most of the time, i hope it cheered you up to see my face. stay strong bestie! anw i spent more than 40mins trying to get out of the mega huge school cause the first 2 gates i went to were locked! damn. i was so frustrated and alone. it was so freaky cause it was dark and i was all alone plus edwyna's phone died so i couldn't call her for help to get out of the school. i'm so sorry chuting for making you wait so long for me. but with zifang's help i managed to get out of the school and was super tired by then. i was in a foul mood too cause i had to walk so much. goodness, i'm glad i'm not in HC if not i will lose weight within the first month.

anyway i stayed up really late till 2 plus last night although i was dead beat. i was talking to ms tan and jim online and it's funny how they like many others find that i lack confidence. hiaz.

ok, i shall go appease my mum by attempting to clear my wardrobe and my study table. i'm taking so long to get the job done and most of the time i end up looking at pictures or reading letters instead.
