hey....thanks everyone for making my birthday such an enjoyable one..my parents couldn't really celebrate it with me because my father left for china on wed, while i had a gym camp on thursday so i didn't see my mum the entire day..on wed i was quite proud of myself, and thankful. when i was coming home from training, my father was waiting for his taxi and i talked to him a while..something i haven't done for a long time :D
anyway..i was quite sad on tues, but i cheered up a little after my family cut a cake for me at night..a strawberry cheesecake. yeah...
on wed, there was SYF prac which went quite okay? we learnt the final few steps of the dance and there was this 'high difficulty' pose which required gosu high bar skills....which laoshi abandoned after kenneth and i were too afraid to attempt it haha.
i had 6 hours to spare until my gym training started. ORIGINALLY I WAS SUPPOSEDDD TO GOOO OUT BUT DUE TO incompetent latin skills........i had to go home in the scorching sun. haha. anyway i didn't bring my work and my gym stuff so i went back, did some work and went for training at night.
the gym people were really nice and they got me a tiny piece of pastry from sweet secrets which was NICE even though i dislike chocolate. training was quite fun even though i got a blister from it..yinjiaolian taught me side somersault twist! though i can't do it properly. haha.
yeah then on thursday! there was guys dance in the morning and it was quite fun...learnt some new steps and everything. there was also a birthday song...sung especially loudly by the ever-enthusiastic hide. thennn we headed off to GYM CAMP! though we had to adjourn all the way to lavender to eat so that david could conveniently stitch his precious soccer boots at some shop above the food centre. hte shops were quite interesting, sold a lot of stuff which interested de hui..think he was looking for a beanie. those funny hats.
then we headed off to tanah merah! all of us were being brilliant and we all waited for the shuttle bus at the wrong bus stop. so when the bus came we were HORRIFIED to see it driving past us and picking up others at another bus stop! jem was ordered to RUUUUUUUUUNNNN but the bus driver acted dao like *someone* and drove off. the girls were impatient and decided to cab, in the process letting out the fact they had to put a cake in the refrigerator. hahaa..it was sweet of them. the guys decided to be kiamsiap and we waited an hour for the next shuttle bus to come :D
the gym chalet was surprisingly fun! it was on the verge of becoming a failure camp when i heard that kenneth and jeremy weren't staying over! none of the rhythmic girls were going either. and OH YES WE LOST THE SOCCER BALL which didn't belong to us anyway but it was still saddening :( anyway some were playing mahjong, watching TV, whiel i decided to play badminton and swim. only the guys swam cuz the girls weren't allowed to go in the pool with their shirts! none of us came prepared to swim, so only the guys swam. it was funn.
then at night we watched HONEY and since lots of us are dancers it was really fun cus we were trying to copy all the cool moves. especially hte last 5 mins of the movie, which peishan was so hyped up about. they are so gooood and we're gonnnna RIPPPPP some stuff for our gym dance :D
after that we went to the bowling place where we played pool...then we came back and they cut the cake for me! it was chocolate, again. yeah..it was really nice of themmm THANK YOU so much for making my bday a memorable one.
then throughout the night we watched movies like secret window which SUCKS, sixth sense which wasn't that scary, and AVP, which was kinda brainless. so i slept at about 4+, but managed to get up the next morning! we all wanted to go for a swim but the pool only opened at 11 -_- so we decided to try to copy the moves from HONEY again. until 11 then we went to swim! several people left during this period...but we did more silly stuff after that. david cooked leftover sausages and nuggets and we went for a picnic! we sat right on top of the rocks in the sun and ate. hahaha. we tried using items to hit down 2 giant spiders on the coconut trees. then there was this moment whereby david asked for a coconut which was near sherry. she asked 'where?!' and i said 'there...that thing on top of yur neck!' =D
after that jem and i wwent for a dip in the pool again! and sherry managed to sneak in too! yeah...then upon going back to the chalet i discovered i was sunburnt :(
thats about it...im at my church friends house now.going to eat dinner soon...thanks everyone for making my bday such an enjoyable one...i really thought everyone forgot about it. thanks all my avid taggers meixian justin thisnet(the most accurate one) yuanchyi jennywa cedric pehpeh siewyi jujubinks angie! and my smsers xiaohui yuanchyi(who gave me a present i already had), yiming jq wenling wei wensi nicole yanrong zhunzhun(s) reuben patty zul kyla pong stacy joshua.
