olympic dream! =DD
olympic dream was great fun! =D mass dance in the night before we set off to toa payoh was super fun and insane, I partnered gerald and we basically went nuts. I think all the other pairs behind us might have thought we were nuts. HAHA.
when OD officially started at midnight, me shihui and jacinda decided to go for a run. BUT. it turned out to be walking instead. WAHAHAHA. =D however, it's really great to walk in the stadium if the company you're with is right. me, ivan goh, xinyi, natalie, zhenghan, shiyun, shihui and jacinda all walked together at a time. and I walked 10 rounds and ran 4 rounds during the midnight stint. walking with nat is just great. =) could finally catch up with one another and have a good, long chat. and chatting with them is really nice in a way. =) and I ran 4 rounds with laixing and yufeng. happily I was ahead of them for all 4 laps! but I stopped after awhile cos I was exhausted already. I don't think anyone really slept in the night. most of us were too busy clocking in the laps and having fun to sleep. =D
I walked like nearly 10 laps with zhenghan that night and we were chatting at the same time. he kept counting the number of times jeffrey jogged past us. HAHA. and I wanted to cycle but all the bikes were in use. =( I remember seeing 1 guy from 06S05 who was at the stadium, cycling quite alot of laps. and I was like 'wow. imba!' =D
it was 3+am when I finally got hold of a bike, and I cycled 2 laps. I was super wobbly on my bike and I was so scared that I would fall off. thanks to abbie who offered up his bike for me! but I turned down his offer cos his bike is higher than mine was, and I didn't think I could straddle a tall bike easily.
morning was the time when everyone was near the verge of falling asleep, cos very few of us actually slept that night. while waiting for the mass dance to start, I actually dozed off. while waiting to run that 1 round with mr koh, many ppl dozed off. =/ gerald even ended up lying on the grass and sleeping. literally everyone was half-asleep then. I walked another 6 rounds that day. ran the relay race and I was like super exhausted. mass dance sessions were hyped up. councillors kicked it off first, then OGLs, shadows and some 2nd-intakers joined in gradually. =D
left toa payoh at 12+ with shihui, jacinda and chayee. then chayee went back, me shihui and jac went to burger king at hdb hub to eat. and we all felt like dozing off over our lunch. on the mrt back home, ALL of us were dozing. and I would have missed my stop if shihui hadn't poked me awake at that time. =\
today was a dead day. my morning started off badly cos my water bottle leaked and the bottom of my bag was wet, and my foolscap pad was wet, including some of my notes in my file! my econs tutorial was damp also, and mrs tan was like 'whose tutorial is wet?' omg. so embarrassing. lucky the rest of my day was fine after that. chem pract was dead man's session. even mahmudah was on the verge of dozing off, and ganesan and qiyi actually slept. =\ at least my day was quite ok despite my leaky water bottle. stayed in school to study with sijie until 3, then she had to see a teacher, while I walked around school for awhile. when I was going up to the staff room to look for sijie, I ran straight into christofle, and I didn't even notice his presence until he called out to me and asked me why I wasn't in the band room. we chatted for awhile, and he told me he wanted to de-stress for awhile. shihui called me, then I met shihui and jac outside school, where they were cooing to a cat outside, then as they left, I decided to go get the band room keys from cassandra so that I could open the band room to go practise for awhile. but the aircon couldn't be switched on. turns out it's the remote control's problem, and not the power supply behind. if the aircon was screwed I think everyone would die of the heat. even lowering it to the lowest temperature wasn't enough. =\ and we have a new percussionist! =D stupid me can't remember his name, only know he's in 07s32. I had not seen him before in school, but he said he saw me before and that I was sitting in front of him during econs lecture this morning! =0 maybe I just wasn't observant enough. =/
oh well. enough of my rantings. =) didn't take any photos during olympic dream though. kind of a pity.
