CCA troubles/ OG outing
dear faeriefablethe com hanged when i was typing a post out! it was such a long post! argh!!! what a waste of time to retype everything again and to recap what i have written just now! argh!!! i want my previous entry back!!! GIVE IT BACK TO ME!!! AAAHHH!!!
ok. as requested by XX, i am here writing this post [again!] and dedicating it to XX since she thinks i'm very real in my blog. haha. [real? i wonder what she means? how can someone be fake?] XX wants me to talk about the volleyball trials that i went on thursday. it was quite alright and interesting but the weather was a letdown. it was pouring so we didn't do much but just pass some balls around with our arms. however, i've learnt a little skill about volleyball just by passing it around. it's my first time playing! my hand and arms doesn't hurt at all when i pass the ball. not bad right? haha.
well, i've been troubling about what CCA to choose in the past few days. but it's all over now since i've already submitted my CCA form to the school after listening to the advices of carol jie, jet and a couple of friends. there were so many CCA to choose and they all looked fresh to me. so i was at a lost of what to choose. i wanted a CCA that is new and challenging and there were so many of them that i liked! there were canoeing, volleyball, tennis, badminton, squash, sailing, choir and ten pin bowling. but in the end, i've settled on volleyball as my first choice, badminton as my second choice and tennis as third choice. i'm still a little worried though. i'm worried that i've made the wrong choices and that i'll regret taking up that CCA. what am i to do?!?! -sigh-
i'll elaborate on how i've made my choices. basically, i've screwed up badminton trials so i didn't want to put it as my first choice since i know that i'll get into the recreational team if i get in. but i still liked playing badminton [especially with my brother] so i put it as my second choice. then there was sailing and squash. although i've never tried them before, but i don't seem to have as much likings on them as the others. hence, i've decided not to put any of them into my choices. as for ten pin bowling, it's an expensive sport and it's quite slack although it's also fun. so i've decided not to include it into my choices. CHOIR! choir is the only performing arts CCA that i want to join but i never went for their auditions so i thought i would not have a chance in getting into it. thus i didn't put it in as one of my choices. as for tennis, i find it very fun when i tried it during the try outs but i don't have a tennis racket. so i decided to put tennis as my third choice instead of my second choice. volleyball and canoeing are two difficult decisions to make. i was thinking of putting canoeing, volleyball and badminton/ tennis. but after hearing some rumors and advices from people around me, i've decided not to put canoeing as my choice. i somehow regret not putting it but oh well, what can i do now since i've already submitted the form. haha. canoeing is a very tough sport and i heard that the training is very tough. during the trials for canoeing, they made the freshies run on the track for 10 minutes and see how many rounds they can run. they also made them do pull ups or inclined pull ups. after hearing all these, i was thinking whether i would be able to take the training if i join it. i know it's challenging and it seems very fresh and interesting to me. but kendra said that it was not practical to put it as a CCA since i know that i'm not very sporty. therefore i decided to be realistic and not put it as one of my choices. -sigh- hope that i would not regret it. yup. as i've said just now, i went for the volleyball trials on thursday and i kind of like volleyball a little. so since i wanted to try something new and that i want some challenge to it, i decided to put volleyball as my first choice. i think i should be able to cope with their trainings. it doesn't seem as tough as that of canoeing. so hopefully, i'll get into volleyball. good luck to me! haha.
ok. that's all for CCAs. i should just stop thinking about it. [which i can't! -sigh-] now i'll talk about the OG outing that i had today. it started out a little boring because we had to wait for many of them to arrive. before the outing, i went for the chingay training so after that, i took a bus with yuheng and reuben to tampines to meet up with the other members. reuben didn't join us as he had something on. so i, together with yuheng and friends, went to a food court to settle down and talk because we were a little too early for the outing. then at about 1.30pm, yuheng and i left for the macdonald's near the interchange to meet jocelyn, jasmine, sherman, anqi and louis. they were all quite shocked to see that i was wearing my pinafore instead of some casual clothings. sherman even called me a cooking housewife because my pinafore looked like an apron. whatever sherman! haha. so we left tampines and took a train to bedok to wait for cheng yew and benjamin. they took such a long time to reach bedok. so after cheng yew came, we went to macdonald's to eat and chat until benjamin came. siwee didn't come because he had a fever. [get well soon, siwee!] then freda and terrance had something on so they said they'll meet us up later for dinner. back to the point. i really had no idea where we were going. i only knew that we will be going to a ktv [which is like so inappropriate for an OG outing!] louis led us to this deserted CC, which kampong chai chee CC, to sing ktv. i was like: "oh my gosh! why come to this place for OG outing?!?!" but obviously, i didn't want to be a letdown so i didn't say it out loud. i was just ranting in my mind. haha. there was a very strong smell in the CC which i somehow could not take it. everyone was so embarrassed to sing until they started to pick old retarded songs. haha. then jocelyn, anqi and shuzhen left to meet their parents for their family day. after they left, me, benjamin, chengyew and yuheng started to play bridge! this was the time where we all got high! sherman, jasmine and rachel just watched us play. haha. i was quite confused about the game at first. i thought i knew how to play bridge all along but i was wrong. haha. we played so many games of bridge but i just kept losing! haha. i'm still not so sure about the part where i have to help my partner in order to give him/her hints that i am his/her partner. haha. maybe i'm a bit slow in playing games. haha. well, benjamin, chengyew and yuheng later teach the rest how to play the game. sherman got the hang of the game very fast. but jasmine and rachel still haven't got a clue about the game. haha. then it was time to leave the wulu ktv so we went to the void deck of a nearby HDB to continue on our game of bridge. haha. it was so much fun and laughter! haha. but somehow, i feel that we had to much fun in playing bridge that we neglected rachel and jasmine. haha. after that, we were all very hungry and decided to go have dinner together. we wanted to meet freda and terrance first but decided not to since they will be meeting us at a later time. hence we headed off to macdonald's again... haha. i ate the prosperity meal! i thought it would be very tasty but it was so spicy that i hardly enjoyed eating it. i didn't know the prosperity burger was a black pepper chicker burger! the black pepper sauce was so spicy. i would not recommend to those who do not take spicy food like me. haha. ok. end of digression. after that freda and terrance came and we ate and chat until 10pm. the topics that we discuss was so random! first it was some guy then it was some bgr thing and then it was school and many other stuff. haha. but the most important thing is we had fun together! haha. it was getting quite late already so we decided to bid goodbyes and head home. haha. i think i've open up quite a lot these few days. i really didn't know that i was that easy going last time. but good things have to come to an end fast. next tuesday, our OG will be splitting up into 2 classes and so some of the members have decided to have an OG dinner together on monday. however, i'm not very confirmed about it. i hope it will be a success! haha.
i think this entry is a little boring and sloppy too. i'll try to improve on my writing for the next entry. so i gtg now. bye!
