had the earliest "dinner" ever at 2.30 pm today! what the... cuz my grandma wanted to have an early meal... well actually, i treated it as a lunch, "converted" the lunch at 11.30am to breakfast, had the real dinner at 6.30pm at home...
went for shopping for furniture for the 2nd time. the last time was on Sunday. well, we were just looking for inspirations so that we can better design our new house in about 2 months' time. drove to IMM, and had a good view of classy furniture, which i think would fit into our new house. then we proceeded to Bukit Timah Road's Courts to look at other furniture. well, the Courts' furniture doesn't seem to be classy enough or attractive enough to me. we stayed there for less than 30 minutes, i suppose. then we had our "dinner" nearby upon my grandma's requeest.
yeah, moving to a new house in december. the new house has a larger land area than our current one, and most importantly, it has a much larger built-in area and bigger rooms. my new bedroom would be 2x the size of my current one, shiok! actually this house would be within 1km of my current house, so there would be little changes in our living environment, i guess. just that the bus-stop would be a longer walking distance away, and my poor fat brother would have to exercise more, which is good! lol...
hmm, ok, some personal review of the eng o wk up to date.
mon was war games and SP games. war games was quite fun, but the sun was really scorching and i got sunburnt. nite was SP games. shiok, cuz we get to make fun of the blindfolded SP couples, but the nite was quite cold, and i caught a cold. the revelation was a bit anti-climax, at least for Helsing. maybe, they should have some activities after the revelation, since interaction with and without knowing who the person u are interacting with is really different. but it was quite late lah, so i would prefer not to have after-activities...sounds contradicting...
after the SP games and revelation, we managed to get an empty single double room, thanks Jack. it was Antonia's room. most of us played games and had supper there and stayed up throughout the nite, while waiting for 5 am when we would have to report for Flag's day. super tired, esp when i was having a cold...
proceeded for Flag in Toa Payoh Central. realised that there were so many pple doing flag in the same small area. it doesn't seem logical to me to put so many pple in the same area, cuz it might irritate the passers-by. but, "competition" among the different groups of Flaggers, might be able to up the donations. well, i dunno whether we are on which side of the balance. but for me, i dun like the "competition" cuz it gives a rather bad impression to the public, and gives us difficulty to raise a certain amount of money. charity shouldn't be put under competition, this is what i believe.
due to pure tiredness and laziness, we decided to end early. some of us had lunch, after which, some of them proceed to Koh Yu's "house" while waiting for their bags to arrive in Toa Payoh at around 4pm. for me, i drove home after the lunch and had a rest to prepare for the next day's sentosa trip.
wednesday was Sentosa Day. had brunch at Seah Imm. i had limited choices cuz i was on the recovery phase from the cold i had after monday nite. then we proceeded into Sentosa Siloso Beach. the sun was hot and i got sunburnt. and i think it was a rather serious burn, cuz my legs also kanna burnt, and it's painful, esp on the neck and legs. really regretted for being lazy to put on sun-block or sun-tan lotion. treat it as a lesson learnt...
in the evening, had a da-bao dinner at Vivo, which i felt was quite lame. i would much prefer a dine-in dinner at a restaurant. but jiacheng pointed out something which i had neglected. that is, not everyone would be able to afford a rather expensive dinner. even a 20 plus bucks dinner may be quite inaffordable to some pple. realized i can be quite insensitive to pple not as 宽裕 in terms of money. this comes to the point about fairness, which i think we should strive to have but it would be impossible. it takes much EQ and deliberation to try to make things fair for everyone. hmm, getting a little over-emo here...
tomorrow would be a roadrunner game in town, followed by fright nite in campus. dunno how it would be. i would be the station master of the SDE tunnel. this tunnel is itself scary when the lights are all off, so the gamemasters/ghosts would try to prevent any accidents while scaring the freshies... dunno whether i would be involved in the roadrunner game, cuz there may be a dry run for the fright nite. but i think it would be rather lame to have a dry run cuz many councillers are involved in the fright nite, leaving very few to lead the OGs in the roadrunner game. maybe, the OGLs would be the only one following the OGs ba. nvm, everything would be settled tomorrow.
alrite, that's all for today, and happy Bdae, Singapore!
missed the performance part of the National Day Parade cuz i was dozing off on the sofa... will try to catch the repeat telecast...
