its been pretty cool so far...
no major hiccups...
except for that stupid maths test...
hahas
rachel did not actually allow it...
but i think it was one of the most effective sessions yet...
prepped really thoroughly, but at the end, had to debate on the OTHER side then expected, along with sam...
to a certain extent, we were really really sucky... considering we haven't practised in like 3 months...
hahas
we seriously need practice practice practice...
i'm sure we will be able to do really well!! [yay team c!!!]

hahas...

well, that little phase of life has somewhat passed me by...
hahas...
everything is pretty ok now...
but it was seriously a little complicated...
so here goes:

it so happened that i called rachel chung, asking her for excuse from my camp to go to the NCS debates today...
however, the following day, she messages me, saying that she can't get me excused...
so i'm like 'shit, now hafta go for camp...'
then i reach home, check my email, and find out that she sent an email to the debate club, saying that no-one was excused, except for the JG teams and me...
so i was like, now what? coz the time on the email said that she sent it out at 11 at nite...
nevermind then...
so i was all ready to go for the stupid camp on fri...
and it so happens that pe teacher timothy chee, decides on that day that he was gonan give us a really bad wkout... [theres a long story behind this... i'll tell another time...]
so after pe, i go bk to class, feel so nauseus, wanna puke, but can't...
so i'm like so not up to doing work in class... i must haf looked really sick coz fiona ho asks if i wanna go home...
i told her i'll let her know if i need to...
so at the last period. i'm feeling really bad, so i get the 'go-home' form, and let lin hui sign it... but i dun go home yet coz it IS the last period already...
so i call kevin koh, tell him, i'm not up to camping, and he asks me to get an MC...
so at nite i go to get one... the doctor just says that i'm just really exhausted due to all the stuff i'm doing... makes me rest at home...
thats why i'm not at the NCS debates today...
would haf luved to go, but my mom says i must so rest if i dun wanna fall sick...

hahas
so here i am...
not doing anything (besides homewk)
wishing i were at the debates chairing [so sorry joan...]
and i'm gonna haf to make up the camp i didnt go 4...

"Just As I Am" by Guy Sebastian - Australian Idol

its been a long and winding journey,
but i'm finally here tonight...
picking up the pieces,
walking back into your light...

anyways, this week has been so hectic...
it also marked the beginning of many things to come...
firstly, choir camp!
was quite badly planned actually...
especially the games...
but lurved the storyline...
hahas...
anyways, the food was not bad...
it wasn't the best, but at least there was alot of it...
hahas...
but with the close of the camp marks the start of the intensive traning for our varios performances, esepecially the Festival of Arts in July and the trip to Perth...

into the sunset of your glory,
where my heart and future lie...
there's nothing like that feeling,
when i look into your eyes...

also the very first round of the Julia Gabriel's Singapore Secondary Schools Debating Championships kicked off at ACS Barker...
was a roller coaster of some of the best teams and speakers...
but YAY!!!
both teams form ACS(I) won!
superb performance put up by all team members...
kudos to team 2 for pulling it off against soe of the toughest competition there is...
the following rounds leading up to the final 8 teams is gonna be a thriller...

my dreams came true,
when i found you...
i found you,
my miracle...

we've also finished (or re-done) the OM script...
sigh...
hahas
now haf to learn my new lines and characters...
not sure who i'm playing...
anyways, now the real challenges begin...
making the backdrop, props and costumes...
and practicing for the spontaneous round...
hahas
-whats the difference between an orange and an apple?-
pls tag some CREATIVE answers for me k?
hahas

if you could see what i see...
you're the answer to my prayers...
and if you could feel
the tenderness i feel...
then you would know,
it would be clear...
that Angels Brought Me Here...

i will so never get tired of that song...
hahas

so anyways, thanks everyone for everything...
