Swooosh!
Yup, the title is the name of SMU's sports camp. I nv regret signing up for it. Almost every moment was filled with fun and more fun. All these drained wadever energy i had for the weekend. But i came home a happier person.
The main highlight was no doubt the "Amazing Race". Not that we can go about trying different sports, it brought me out of my sheltered cave, and put me through things i wouldn't have bothered to try. Stuff like golf, dragonboating, rock climbing, is smt new to me... and things i thought (yes, i assumed and acted smart) i knew were re-taught in a whole new light! We went on the DHL Balloon as part of the amazing race's quest. (Dont ask me wad quest) Ran all over town to dig up answers to clues. Hijacked pple's car in a bid to hitch a free (and faster) ride to our destination. Those were the times....

GREEN is GOLD... get it?
16 JULY 2006
A group of people kept the hopes of many alive...
They came from all walks of life....
They believed in one goal....
Something they wanted deep in thier hearts...And they called themselves the 'dream team'...
I finally got my wish come true. Unbelieveable evening. Every moment tt night will be archived in my mind... every single detail of it. It was a sweet victory for all of us. A night TJ brought the house down with pure, solid accustics. It may not be perfect, but it was definitely played by a perfect combination of talents, well groomed by a humble and gifted being.
To all these talents: Keep our spirits high, and keep the flames burning bright!
Here's the music!

25 hours a day... 8 days a week
This week is overwhelming. 24 hours is not enough for me. I cant remember a time when i can just sit down and read the papers over a coffee. Now that sch is starting, i realised i better kick some ass before the books kick mine!
Some really bad news though, bert's dad collasped suddenly and was rushed to the hospital. When i got there at night, he was in the ICU already. And i almost broke down looking at his state. Bert was somehow lost in his world and i nv saw him like tt. But thank God, he woke up after being in a coma for 1 day. A big sigh of relieve. Now he is on the road to recovery and i really hope everything will be fine! Pray for my friend! And to bert, dun worry. Everything's okie. Will go fishing with CO once he's ok and he will be fine! Ohhh-kayyy!
Yeah, went for SMU matriculation. Quite surprised to see many familiar faces. At least i will feel much comfortable when school starts. So i'll be officially a FRESHIE! Sounds bad. But got choice here? And i got to do a freaking 80 hours of community work! God save the queen!
Alrighty, band starting. Dun think i'll be there early to carry instruments. Let the young bloods do the job. They need more practice.

When primitive man screamed and beat the ground with sticks, they called it Witchcraft.
When modern man does the same thing, they call it Golf.

Today was at Raffles Hospital for my pre-uni check up. Well, the venue itself explains how SMU value its students (i hope so). But nm that. Everything was done in about an hour. Quite fast for a hospital and during the peak hours...
Most pple there are the tai-tais... and mostly not locals. So i was being my usual, trying to figure out who these pple are. And, well, not to my amazement, most pple there are the ah tiongs*. They are here to apply for student permits... and to me they seemed rather well off. To them, its a big acheivement to study here.
For us here, we may just look upon them as our competitors, rather than a guest. And the recent debate of indecent Chinese Masseuse in the limelight just made me wonder it their reputation here is tarnished. I've got to admit, i don't fancy their presence here. Cant explain why. Just a flawed impression i have on them...
