okie actually i thought i should blog a week later given the time right now (almost 3am) and that i have hall camp tmr! let me begin... hmm today was a very busy day! Firstly, i didn't swim much ! Don't want to talk about it, the wet weather these days is foiling my swimming plans so when i woke up to a bright and sunny morning, i thought today was rather ideal for swimming only to realise that the dark clouds were looming behind! So it rained halfway while i was swimming. Can only blame myself for foolishly believe that the skies will clear up very soon and it can't possibly rain again today which it did! Anyway, enough talk of my un-wise decision, which really did make me feel stupid. :(
In the afternoon, we went shopping at daiso for our dormitory stuff! Bought a handful of stuff. And I realised that i actually enjoy shopping, be it grocery shopping or shopping for clothes, bags etc or even just windown shopping. I like to browse through the numerous items on the shelf, looking at them frees up my mind. Yes, i guess right now, i look forward to every shopping trip.
Spent the evening packing the stuff which i think i'll need for hall. It was not a very pleasant experience though. Thereafter, daddy sent us (mum, aunt and i) there to unpack. I did not fully unpack fully because it was already quite late so i'll continue tomorrow (or rather today).
Yesterday, went to collect the keys to our dormitory and also did some spring cleaning because the room was simply too dusty! Would like to thank deb and her parents for helping me out. :)
Then, i headed for city hall for pre-camp. Basically, i met up with my group leaders and some of my group members since ten didn't turn up. But still, 11 people attended so i think it's quite okie. It was rather awkward at first because i came late and couldn't figure out which group was my og exactly. Was very grateful that i manage to spot the correct group of people or else, it would have been embarrassing. The other group looked so hip because they were learning how to do some sort of funky dance. Phew! Fortunately, i didnt' even approach them.
Our seniors gave us a briefing and introduction for the camp. We also played some ice-breakers, talked and learnt some cheers. At one point in time, i thought it would be quite awkward to talk to strangers and make friends. I even foresee myself to be at a loss of words, followed by awkward silence. Unexpectedly, i was rather chatty that day to the extent that i thought i might have been a poor listener. And so since i think my group should be quite alright, i hope camp is going to be alright because my group leader emphasised that we should just enjoy ourselves, not be too self-conscious about embarrassing ourselves. Despite this, i think i would still inevitably feel this way at times.
FINALLY watched H-P yesterday with sister. I liked this movie the as compared to the previous ones. There were more than a few light-hearted scences which triggered my laughter! Though i know the plot getting's darker as well. And there's this quote which strike me the most, the "looney" girl mentioned, "Things that we lose would usually come back to us in some other way." Hmm not that i absolutely believe in it, but i think it does make some sense. Oh well, even though most people wished that the movie could be longer, i think the duration's just right. I dont' like too long a show, but it also means that they cut out a lot of details which can only be found in the book. And thus, i decided to read the book diligently courtesy of deb. Thanks!
Okie update again when i'm back!
