Man, back to school tomorrow.

I'd rather have camp, then school holiday. Than school holiday, and then camp. I dun feel like going back to school tomorrow. Seriously.

I went out today, watched Get Smart.

I haven't finish my homework and i know i wasn't allowed to watch. Nonetheless, i still did. I had this guilty feelings while watching, couldn't watch in peace. I'm very worried my old horrible habbit will come around. I've worked so hard at the beginning of the year, i'm worried i'll disappoint everybody at the end of the year because of my complacency.

I haven't finish my work, and school's starting tomorrow.

Now then i feel the fear. School always says 'Start the term right.'. I dun think i'll be able to do that. I'll screw up the first day, imagine the rest of the term. I'm already hating my new timetable. Cos it sucks, BIG TIME. They changed the PE teacher. i mean, what for??? i like Mr Singh. i think he rocks. why change????? my gosh -.- ah dammit i really dun feel like going to school tomorrow. Nor the following day, the day after and the day after and the day after that.

come on, Jo. Half a year is done, half more to go! you survived the first half, you gonna clear the other half! come on, Jo! HALF MORE TO GO! JUST HALF MORE!

Presenting the group and rocks most, DA GAMA!! VERY GOOD -CHENG-!! =DDD

My instructor, Jonathan. Imported from Hong Kong noe =D he's super cute =))

My Tent-mates. HAHA! everytime kena loser one lah =)

OBS was a hell lots of fun =D

despite the horrible chores we had to do, the sunburn and the staying condition and home-sickness, i think overall it was awesome. Of course for those who aren't the camp-and-track kind of adventurous person will find it horrible still. OBS is totally different than Sec 2 Cohort Camp. It's alot tougher and challenging. After completing the course, then you'll feel that Sec 2 Cohort Camp is nothing, the challenges are no kick.

See in Sec 2 Cohort Camp, the food are all ready for you. You don't have to move tents and when it rains or anything, you have the conference room to slee with aircon. Furthermore, there are teachers around with proper rooms. You feel homesick, you can stay inside. After finish eating, you can just wash up and sleep. You get to use sleeping bags and you dun have to keep your eyes on the things like harness and helmets stuff. You lose it, they give you warnings.

On the other hand, in OBS, you have to collect your own food and cook it yourselves. Once you finish eating, gotta wash everything yourselves. Gotta move campsite every-night and they time us to pitch and pitch down the tents. 5 tents within 10 mins. You never clear time limit, gotta pitch back and pitch down the tents til u clear 10 mins. You forgot to put on the 'fly-sheet', it rains and ur tent get wet, you still have to sleep inside. No sleeping bags, sleep in the tent on the ground. You lose any equipment, you pay for it according to their prices.

Day 1, 24th June 2008.
We took bus to Punggol Jetty and waited for the boats. 3H and 3J were the last to go, so while waiting some of us played games, the guys went to pee -.- and some took naps. After like at least 45 min or more, our boat came. We headed to Campsite 2, divided to groups and joined the rest. I was in Da Gama.
Da Gama recruits: Hazel/Charissa/YiJun/Rachel/Michelle/Jo/Ke Shin/Daryl/Chuan Hui/Hong Wan/Timothy/Sun Yu/Jonathan/Ajay/Tyson and YIYING! ahahha! to be honest, i wanted to be in Livingstone =/
Livingstone recruits: Olivia/Fang Ning/YiJie/Erina/Ryan/JunHui/Yvette/YiJing/ and somemore people (sorry i forgot who) but oh well, Da Gama rocks most at the end of the camp -Cheng-(thumbs up)!!
Then they brought in the instructors. There's this 1 instructor that caught my eye the minute he walked in front of us but he went to stand in front of the other group. i was like 'ah dannggg =X' Then when they called the instructor of Da Gama, he went to stand in front of my row. i went 'ohhhhh hell yeahh!' they called his name 'JONATHAN' he has this cute dimple =) cmon everybody says he's cute. aahhh =D ahah! he seems to be the most fun instructor to me so obviously i was glad to have him to be my instructor. We surrendered our belongings and he briefed us about the equipments in the store. First day was quite boring actually, cos we didnt do anything except briefing, briefing and more briefing -.- We pitched the tent and did some 'trust-jump' thing. The one u fall back and the rest of the group holding a mat and they catch u with it. We learned some belaying and climbing thing. And ended the day with cooking our own dinner and wash up. So dinner was; rice, 1 can of sardines, 1 can of soup. pathetic i tell u -.- The whole camp, i shared tent with Charissa and YiJun.

Day 2, 25th June 2008. Campsite 2.
we woke up a lil late and had difficulties dismantling the tents. So we kena lecture. Then we proceed to the high element challenge, The Flying Fox. k i think among all the roles, the ropemen is the most boring one. LOL. cos all u do is pull the rop and tap tap tap to prevent ropeburn. While flying, i screamed halfway then no voice came out -.- but it was cool =) Then after keeping the equipments and packed our bags, we headed for the Land Expedition. We saw a wild boar crossing the road and a hen with chicks following it. Classic =D The bags were like super heavy, i can bet it weighed more than 6 kg. Tyson and I were the navigator. We werent lost but we had a tough time finding the clues -.- we asked for 2 clues, each cost us 2 bottles of water (not to give him, but to drink), so we drank 4 bottles -.- our next campsite was at Jetty Batu Kekek. we reached there and had to test our life-vests by dipping into the sea water at the jetty. we had to lock arms, Yijun was on my left i think and Jonathan was on my right. When everybody stood up, the other side stood up faster so it was unbalance. I couldn't get up, so Jonathan couldn't get up, followed by Chuan Hui the other side of Jonathan couldn't get up also. lol. super fun man. Then we headed to the Quary (sp??) We jumped in 1 by 1. our left arm suppose to hold on to the life-vest. The other arm go under the left arm and pinch the nose. When i jumping, then i realise my right arm wasn't under my left arm. i was like 'oohh shiittttt!! hyaaaa' then splash -.- super retarded. Then when everybody jumped inside we all locked arms and he told some stupid random shit lah -.- LOL said some dead people improperly burried underneath and when the time reaches 6.20 pm, the hands will grab our legs. lol. After that, we pitched the tents and had some problem with Hillary. let's not bring that up. We cooked our dinner, briefing about the next Sea Expedition and went to sleep.

Day 3, 26th June 2008. Jetty- Batu Kekek.
We woke up late. LOL. oh well =)) we learnt how to kayak and wad to do when we capsized. I kayak-ed with Ajay and Chuan Hui. The weather was super hot, i never zip my track pants so i have this stupid patch of sunburn only the unzipped part. LOL. Everytime there's break, we'll attach our tri-kayaks to Michelle's one. So Chuan Hui, Ajay, Michelle, Daryl, somebody else and I will share food =D haha! Daryl will help me peel oranges. LOL! he has the funniest laughter i've ever heard. contagious man! i'll laugh when he laugh. HAHAH! super funny! LOL! Da Gama people agree! hahah! played chasing with parvesh. Lol. he kept splashing water, so i splashed back. then immediately paddled forward. Then suddenly 'Helloo! i'mm baaacckkk!' Chuan Hui was like 'OH SHIT! FULL SPEED AHEADD!!' hahhaha! super fun! once we reached back Campsite 2, we had to carry the boats and washed the sand off. The instructor rinsed all of us and we formed human chains to start moving our bags. Bridget and I got to get on the boat =D hahha! some incident happened, so we had to do the Jetty Jump the following day. We packed the store and ate our lunch. set the tents and start cooking. Hairi and Parvesh came over and helped us finish the food. After finish eating, Hairi saw a wild boar. Only Hairi and I saw at first. Then we went near the forest and were thinking wad to do if the wild boar runs out. Then our dearest friend, Parvesh thought of a solution which is to run in circle cos the wild boar will fall down and run back to the forest for it has short legs -.- true actually but when it runs out people will be panicking then who the heck will remember to run in circle -.- LOL! not a bad thinking though. Then the wild boar went to the beach. Just when Charissa screamed, Parvesh ran away. So other people thought Parvesh ran and screamed at the same time. They were like 'PARVESH! U LOSER SIA!' Parvesh went 'EH NOT ME LAH' in his high-pitch voice. LOL! We had to hang our ponchos and rinse the ground sheets. loosen up the equipments then suddenly we realised we lost ALOT of things. in total we had to pay $200 plus plus. Till we start finding 1 by 1. We went to write our journals and then went to sleep.

Day 4, 27th June 2008. Campsite 2.
SIGH last day of camp. Had Jetty Jump in the morning. some screamed, i shouted 'I SURVIVED OBS! WHOOO!' then mostly clearing the store and pack up. and basically that's all. We had a group talk, and then we received our photos and man, i look so spastic! LOL! oh well, thats why it's called 'Fun-Photo' after all. lol! I then realised how much we've been through as a group. I recalled wad we were like when we first arrived at the campsite and wad we're leaving as from OBS. The instructor asked each of us our most memorable part of the course. Some said Flying Fox, some said Kayaking, I said 'ever participating in the course, the whole thing.'. We head down and joined the other groups and bought the shirts. Played 'Pepsi Cola' for a while, super fun. Cleared the place and were the last one to leave.

I think OBS taught us not only to be mentally and physically stronger, but also to open our mind as there are more things in life uncovered. OBS showed us our strengths and weaknesses, taught us valuable lessons and moral educations =))

lemme share some inspirational stories from our Instructor.
-A girl once asked her mother.
Girl: Mommy, why is life so tough? You solved a problem, a new 1 will appear.
Mom: Sweetie, can u help mommy take a carrot, an egg and a coffee bean please?
Girl: Mommy, i dun wan to learn anymore recipe. i wan to noe the ans.
Mom: Put them inside the cooking pot and let em boil.
-After a While-
Girl: Mommy, i just wan to noe the ans.
Mom:*took out the cover* you see the carrot? is it soft?
Girl: Yes.
Mom: now u see the egg? is it still hard?
Girl: Yes.
Mom: now the coffee bean? can u smell?
Girl: Yes. Mommy, wad're you trying to say??
Mom: You see, dear, People are like Carrot, Egg and coffee bean. Some may appear hard at first, but once you put them in a hard situation they become soft like the carrot. Some maybe fragile at first, but become more solid like the egg. And Some are like the coffee bean, you put them in and they will influence the rest of the smell. So my dear, which one are you?

i forgot the other 2. shit shit. i'll post when i remember.
I'll definitely miss my instructor, Jonathan. and DAGAMA =) TKS DA GAMA 2008 -CHENG- *thumbs up* =))
he invited me for the 21 days course. anybody interested??????????

It takes a minute to find a person, a day to know them, a month to love them and an entire life to forget them.-told by Jonathan (instructor of DA GAMA) =D

Today Jo had a heart to heart talk with Jasmine and Si Hui =))
I realised that my life is full of regrets at the moment. Nonetheless, i feel lucky cos some things still happening =)) If you still do, then i think it's a yes.

I'm here to update since i've made a promise to a friend.

My horoscope says; 'Advice you give to friends may not be warmly received, but it will sink in.'

You know, i really dun get how these kind of horoscope things get so accurate sometimes. I believe it's more than just a mere coincidence. But to think, it's kinda impossible that every single human being who happen to share the same horoscope, shares the same fate. Don't you think? But it just happened that during the chat i had with my sweethearts, we were giving advice to one another =) For example; 'The more you talk, the harder it is to get over and forget'. My ladies will understand =)

2A'07 peeps,
The tee design is ready. The colour is White, black and orange. The shirt itself costs $13.90, including the printing it'll cost about $20. We must order the shirt asap. And latest by this Thursday, 19th June 2008. Hopefully can wear for camp =)) 2A'07 rock on! xD

Moving on,
k basically nothing happened after that. Except tuition, finished the design for class tee =)

The Choir Group will be leaving to Russia tomorrow at 7am. damn early man -.- but i think the trip gonna be damn fun for them =) i'll be sending them off at 6am. Those who wan to send off as well, come early uh. Cos they'll have to gather at 7. THUS, Jo need to sleep now =) Plus i need to rush back to school after that. Gotta be in school by 8 for the netball DSA people.

My gosh, i just discovered a surprising truth.

You're not worth my time, You're not worth my attention. Buzz off.

Here to update =))

it's gonna be a short update though =/

So..lemme state some things first before i forgot.
3rd June 2008, was one of the best ?event? ever =) I'm not gonna dwell into the details cos it's confidential =D but It totally rocked! shall create that kinda thing more often uh! Memorable ah damn it was so fun lah xD

5th June 2008, my uncle and aunt with their huge yet empty-headed sons returned to Indo. Retarded human beings. Irritants. It was also the start of -Netball Camp 2008- =)) Netball camp was from 5th to 7th June. We didn't clash with any CCA except for the second night, Girl Guides. NETBALL CAMP 2008 WAS SUPERB xD! I think the whole camp was awesome =) we got to noe each other alot better. Like any other camp, we had trainings, activities, team bonding stuff and nightwalk. BUT, we had ONE-OF-A-KING TRAININGS (organized by the teachers), we had ONE-OF-A-KIND GAMES (organized by the sec 3s), we had ONE-OF-A-KIND NIGHTWALK (organized by the sec 4s) and we had ONE-OF-A-KIND MEALS (and ice cream treat from PSG =D). and not to forget, a ONE-OF-A-KIND performance for the sec 4s =), from ur dear juniors (aaawww xD)

we were separated to groups.
I was in the 'Mango Apple Banana Pie'. we were told that our group name must consist of a fruit name. Mango Apple Banana Pie's army: Wynne-Yu Shan-Traxie-Renee-Wenna-Liyana-Jo =) too bad the sec 3s didn't get to play with their own teams during the games. But i believe everybody had fun in the end =D

For games, set by sec 3s.
1] Suicide Race
2] Chair Transport
3] Water Bombs (i was running for dear life -.-)
4] Spaghetti Frenzy (OLIVIA!! lol!)
5] Foam Party
for the no. 5, i think all sec 3s were glad we didn't have to participate =) hahah! Well done to all groups! i still have the Foam Party video recorded by our dear Nazura Syazana =))

Before the nightwalk, we prepared a short special performance for the sec 4s =)
We used the song 'Beautiful Girls' and changed the lyrics =D It goe like;
[Chorus] x2
You're way too beautiful girls,
That's why we will miss you all.
You'll have us suicidal, suicidal,
When you leave us this year.

See it started at the court,
Then we met Mr Bok.
Oh, when he screamed at us,
That's when you pulled us up.
Cos we all noe that,
[Censored Lyrics =D]

We think you're so cool,
And you're all super chio.
And you don't really care,
When people start to stare.
But in actual fact,
We know that we're MUCH cooler
(MUCH MUCH COOLER)

[Chorus]

i think the lyrics only sound cool to the netballers. For some reason, i have no idea why too.

Then we had the special nightwalk organized by the sec 4s. Many scary parts were excluded from the route at the last minute for some reason. yeah. But it was cool ah actually. Only 3 sec 3s left that time. So Fang Ning, Olivia and I went together. We were the first to go. We finished quite fast actually. Then we offered our help to the sec 4s which is to go around and scare the others xD hahah! we did scare the heck out of some people =)) k next year, my batch gonna organize the nightwalk. *evil grin* tee hee hee =D

Anw! i'll go on other details tmr or smth, Jo has to go now =))

I knew i was right about you all along. slut and an ass. perfect. wish u a perfect life seducing one another. such disgrace and disgust.

Today Jo feels kinda upset. at the same time Jo had fun =)

My maid returned to indo to get married. SIGH. I sure will miss her hell lots. She's only 21 or 22. So usually, my sister, my maid and I will go out somewhere to shop altogether. While gossiping about family issues. LOL. She left at 2 plus, never coming back =( her fiance's called Vallas or something. Have a wonderful wedding ya! She's getting married in July, school period. shoot.

Anyway, my uncle and his family came to Singapore till 5th June. So till then, the usage of internet and phone is limited. dang it. have i mentioned that i dun really like them? they're not so nice as family. or rather human beings. You see my uncles and my dad used to study in Singapore as well last time. So every school all Technical terms thingy. no express/normal aced/normal tech. Last time there was no such thing as aid from CCA points and Higher Mother Tongue. But now there is, my 'dear' uncle. He complained that i spent too much time on Netball. i told him clearly that now, CCA points can help. But noooo, he insisted that i am wrong and that i am stupid to be fooled that CCA points can actually help. HELLO, CCA points CAN help. Look who's the dumb one..and this is a tiny part of example why i dun like them. Irritants.

Later part of the day i went cycling. Met Dessy at 4 at Katong and walked to East Coast Park. Rent the bike and set off. Nearing the Bedok Jetty..

Jo: Straight on or Bedok Jetty?
Des: Straight lah. cannot tahan ah?
Jo: BRING IT ON

So we carried on cycling till we reached Changi Beach there. We wanted to cycle further but time does not permit. We rent for 2 hours so we only had 1 hour to cycle as far as we can and cycle back. But we returned earlier cos we scared not enough time. We shared a cab back, i was supposed to pay the amount till it reach my place, then the rest comes from Dessy's wallet. LOL. So at about Marine Parade Library the cab fare was already $3.20. I only had $10 buck notes..

Jo: Des..(showing the $10)
Des: Later lah, havent reach wad.
Jo: -.- NO when it reach my place, it'll definitely lesser than $10 so im asking for the change =D
Des: -.-'

So we kinda debate on how much change Des should give me..

Des: How much ah u think? $5? noo..$6??
Jo: i dun think it'll be more than $5.
Des: nahh..i think more than $6.
Jo: wanna bet???? Uncle, how much you think it'll be from here to (my place).
Uncle: hmm, not more than $4.
Jo: AH-HAH! see!
Des: ahh shit.
Uncle: Unless we got caught in some traffic Jam.
Des: AH-HAH!
Jo: OH NO. ah no worries, wont happen. now, my $6

The uncle giggled. I negotiate with Des about the fare cos i was paying for the extra beginning charge thing. After a while he started mumbling something.

Des:...7,8,9 (i hurry took the coin from his hand), 10 AH DAMMIT!

When it reached my place, the cab fare was $4.20.

Uncle: oohh, it's $4.20.
Jo: Oh it's okay, the $1 is in my hand already =D Thanks uncle (left the cab)

Few min later, des smsed me smth that the uncle said.
UNCLE IF BY ANY CHANCE YOU'RE READING THIS,
YOU ARE NOW PRONOUNCED TO BE JO'S FAV CAB DRIVER xD
