Fully Occupied

TERM 3 HOOLIDAYS.

Yes, I think I've mentioned that. Anyway the first week was insane. It was literally 24/7 busybusybusy-ness.  I had Patchwork from 9am-3pm Monday to Friday. Which wasn't as bad as it sounds. For one, we had snack duty and some people brought reallly yummy stuffs (MUFFINS, cookies, cinnamon rolls, fruit...). Plus I got to read people's creative writing pieces and Lily's hilariously cynical comments. The moment I came home each, I plonked myself on my study desk and did a Methods trial exam paper. Dear brain, I apologize for the pain I'm putting you through. It's... good for you? O.o

Wednesday was Jessie's birthday! Whooo. It's kinda great having friends that you've known for so long. We're just so used to each other and our company. It's just comfortable. :) We played cards, baked chocolate souffle/pudding/cake/brownie, sang our hearts out at singstar, ate baozi for dinner, learnt (and recorded ourselves learning) Gangnam style and played murder in the dark. It really speeds up your heart rate when you're in total darkness and could potentially be killed at any moment. Apparently I give out a murdering vibe when I'm murderer, hence I don't make a very good one. Huh and I thought I was good at concealing my latent intent. Guess not. lol. Only con was that I had to wake up early on Thursday to go to the city because I volunteered to help out at a fundraising event for the Hamlein Fistula Hospital in Ethiopia. Yay. :/

Had to dress in black. Every item of clothing I wore was borrowed from Mum. LOL. I don't like wearing so much black. Makes me feel old, and like I'm going to a funeral. D: But it was quite inspiring. She's 78, I think? And she still works 6 days and does a fistula surgery each week.

Patchwork finished early Friday because we're oh-so efficient. Bec, Vivian and I decided last minute to go to the Glen to get Chatime. Ohmygosh it's amazing. The grass jelly was all velvety. mmmm. And I found fellow friends who understand me when I say things like ba pao and ba kut teh and zang. :)

Hardly had time to breathe,
