WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH, THE TOUGH GOES TO SLEEP.
So I've been gone for a while.
And now I'm back.
Duh, obviously.
I've been very very very and is still really really really excited to go home.
87 more days to go, baybeh.
But 17 days before that, I must first face the big Os.
It sucks. Bigtime.
I've never been grade conscious.
I never cared if I screwed up. I never bothered about my tests.
But, honestly, I'm feeling the pressure now.
The creeping pressure.
Guess it's been there all this while. I was just either oblivious or unyielding.
I guess it's the latter.
And it's really difficult.
I've always thought that those pressurizing speeches disguised as pep talks would never move me.
But I guess I was wrong.
It might be the wake up call I've been praying for.
I've always thought I needed help. Perhaps someone or something to make me work harder.
Help came and I felt I was getting there.
But my attempts remain futile.
I guess it's never been enough.
Just like how you wonder why you can't ever make the basketball go into the hoop
when you're not even exerting enough force to get it in.
I suck at analogies.
And so I sulk. I sulk. I sulk.
And then I eat ice cream and everything turns bright and gay.
I screwed up.
I'm now moving on.
I'd never ever repeat the same mistake ever again.
So help me, God.
Amen :)
/I believe. I believe. I believe./

IT'S WHEN YOUR LIMBS AND TORSO HURT.
Body pain.
Extreme body pain.
It's worse than NAPFA.
It doesn't hurt as much now though.
Slowly recovering.
Heh.
So, yesterday. 08 August 2009.
Jenny tortured me in the morning. We went jogging to Novena and back.
I jogged better than before so I'm actually happy about that.
But I guess my legs and feet would beg to differ.
I had some hours of rest, around 3 or so.
Then I was off to NUS with Anna, ate Candice, Hannah, Kat and RC for the Seniors' Farewell organized by our juniors, Batch 10!:D
So we had the usual, though not very usual, games and we ate and we camwhored.
Laughtrip to the max all thanks to all the awesome Pinoy iskolars. HAHA.
Btw. Batch 9 would have so won the trip to Jerusalem game if not only just because.. well, uhm.. just because.
Batch9 rocks. Cos love matters!<3
HAHAHAHA!XD
It ended at around 5. Went back to the hostel for the inter-house pirate-themed Night Race.
I thought conquering the 7 seas is no biggie but, yeah, I was wrong.
All the running, games and post-event thingimajigs may have seemed like all fun last night but not this morning (and until now, apparently. I moved a bit to lie on my bed and my back and everything else hurt) I'm not exaggerating, really. It's worse than NAPFA.
With a night event comes lightsticks and I got 2 last night.
I gave up one, though. We placed it in a lamp in one station. The pirate in charge said we'd get extra points. But we didn't. Another pirate in charge said that if we'd laugh at his joke, he'll give us extra points. We laughed damn hard. But we didn't get extra points.
I felt so cheated..
HAHA.
The Quidditch match was a bit disappointing too. Ask Neha; she'll know.
She was furious last night. But it was for the house anyway so I guess it's not a bad thing; her being mad, I mean. lolXD
Losing is okay and acceptable but losing with apparent injustice and bias imposed by (those who must not be mentioned) is downright frustrating.
Sorry, but it is. Well, I guess it's just me. Don't get me wrong, though. I'm not blaming anyone. I'm just saying what I felt. I'm already over it. Heh.
Anyway, back to the light sticks. So I had one left. And then Emma gave me another one since she had like 4 on each wrist. But then I just realized last night when I got back to my room that I only had one left D: I lost the one Emma gave me T.T
But, well, I still have one left to add into my light stick cup :)
In the end, the light stick continues to light on pretty-ly :)
And that makes me happy:)
Notice the smileys? Yes, cos I'm happy. HAHA.
I love light sticks.
I love how it awesomely exudes its neon-ity (sorry for the made up words HAHA)
when it's dark.
Too bad it doesn't last very long.
Like all of the other light sticks in my light stick cup.
Sad. Tragic. Really.
Moving on.
So we were the 2nd or 3rd house to get back to the dining hall first. But in the end I think we got 5th place. Still happy anyway. I don't mind the not being on top part (also since I really think we would've won more games if everything was fair *gets slapped*)
What's important for me is, though it would be extremely cliche and shit, having fun with my house on the last house event of the year.
I'll miss Green House terribly.
But we shall not fret cos we'll be having loads more unnecessary house meetings with muffins provided by Ms. Susan and donuts by Ms. Siew Geok!
And we haven't had our Wii activity from Mr. Herwin, right? HAHA.
GREEN HOUSE ROCKS. OKAY!♥
Anyway. Moving on.
Yesterday was filled with Kpop.
Seniors' Farewell had Sorry Sorry and Nobody
and then we danced to Nobody during the post-event dance last night.
Oh how I love Kpop♥
Getting too long.
I'll finish this blog in a jiffy.
So yesterday's been really tiring and GAHHH.
Not to mention my hair, especially my fringe, being rather stiff in the end due to the green hair spray.. and the succeeding hairspray retouches which followed (and there were lots. We went crazy with the hairspray cans. HAHA) and blahblahblah.
So it's been tiring and really unglam but, hey, it will pass.
My body would soon stop aching and I'd get my voice back and my hair's all good now after showering last night (oh, yeah, my body too. washed off of all the sweat and grime8D)
But in the end, what's important is, and it would sound very cliche and cheesy again, the fun we had and the memories we had together that we'll treasure forever (and it rhymesXD)
So, there.
It's all good:)
