TWELVE DAYS!
my blogging habits have really made a turn for the worse...
i guess its just that there haven't really been things that were worth penning down...
but thank goodness for the hols and the return of some semblance of social life...
so here's a short recap:

YLS on saturday was NOT what i thought it would be...
i had envisioned a whole day of bill formation and debates, but that was limited to 3 hours in the afternoon...
the morning was spent sitting in the cpa listening to talks...
i thoroughly one of the 3 addresses though...
i had much hope in the Q&A session, but after the first few questions, i just got really bored...
so jit (who had abandoned chamber 3 to sit with me, really grateful for the company) and i took a short break that included food
lunch was pretty good, sat with deon/paul/elendrus from chamber 7 and ryan from chamber 5...
since we had an hour plus, spent the better half of it talking to jit/deon...
then it was the debates (was paired with fellow ex-RMUN-er penelope), and my chamber (4!) was pretty cool, with ppl from nj (justine from CAP '04) and rj as well...
eventually the chamber passed brendan's (env. ministry) bill over mine, but it was kinda ok...
went with ryan to watch elendrus play soccer after a really tasty tea and before the press conference...
presented chamber 4's stuff with brendan, then it was the certificates stuff and before we knew it, it was over...
had dinner with a whole mishmash of ib ppl, jit/adrielleong/sarina/michelle/tessa etc at holland v...
then went for dessert at nydc with bryanzhao where we gossiped talked abt ib ppl till 11...

met up with the HL 2/3 history classes and michael ang for dinner at vil'age (its marche under a different name, seriously) on sunday...
was pretty fun, love LOVE the crepes as usual...
then it was CS at cine, and one too many games of fooseball (table soccer to some)
and finally drinks at starbucks outside california fitness...
didn't join my class for the FRIENDS marathon sleepover at nic's place coz i was way too tired...

met merv at the unearthly hour of 930 (ok, so i was a little later than that, but who can blame me, isn't 930 the time some ppl go to bed in the hols??) at novena square where he had sent his brother off back to truly asia...
chatted for an hour before jit came from his piano lesson, then went for lunch at fish&co...
met yewjin before cabbing to his place...
played table tennis for real for the first time this year, though we had a few breaks coz of the rain...
in the end we just stopped coz the rain didn't let up, which meant we were marooned till yewjin's uncle gave us a lift out...
took 156 with jit to rtc before cabbing back...
and played dota for the first time this year with clarence/elendrus/yewjin...

training on wednesday got the competition machine going again after ncs...
went to buy tix at vivo for thursday...

met yewjin/sean for dreamgirls at 130, and it was the better of 2 shows we watched...
loved LOVED all 2 1/2 hours of it!
fav song out of so many is jennifer hudson's I Am Changing...
had lunch at superdog, and i finally realized that i just don't quite like hotdogs as much as the next...
walked around before going to sean's place...
watched idol (go melinda doolittle, my goodness i loved HOME) where brandon got voted out of the top 12...
he was in the bottom 2 with sanjaya, and if i were the former, i would have STRANGLED him there and then on stage...
played tennis with sean's sis for an hour or so before having dinner and cabbing back to vivo for the pursuit of happyness...
i had anticipated many kleenex worthy moments, but i was left a little underwhelmed...
the only really touching scene was the one where will smith was crying in the toilet...

went to church for the easter drama Remeber Me? rehearsal where i'm narrating with rachh...
had a long chat on the bus home with sher/guonian...

no plans for tomorrow coz i was unsuccessfully in trying to coordinate 5 rather incongruous schedules via email... x)

the glamorous,
