19/11-21/11

the posts about the chalets will come later. i am still editing. this will come first coz i am very very agitated.
19/11: i resumed work, FINALLY. i went out of my house as usual.
take note: this part is not any lame part here. it contains important details. you know, HDB blocks. you know, lifts. you know, public lifts. BUT THE THING IS, there was this lady, walking out of the lift then i entered. i did not realise anything, until the door closes. THE LADY WAS SMOKING INSIDE THE LIFT. i have just finished bathing, with my hair washed! although it was less than one minute, it felt like eternity. smelly, stinky, disgusting, revolting. any negative words can describe.
i almost died inside the lift.
20/11: i had to meet mr soh in school with mas and rahimi. but i do not know why. i cannot contact him. in the night then i realised his number is changed. but what we know, mr soh has already told him. me and mas went back to the yishun campus. well. npcc room is not as small i had imagined it to be.
slightly bigger. things were cramped and very messy. we discussed a little about the arrangement of the logistics.
it was kbox, or rather supposedly. in the end, we were too broke, too little people and yes, it was cancelled. so only me and siyuan went for dinner. teckseng and aldrich went off earlier. we chatted about many things-- things in the past. but still quite hot topics alright!
finally, she called to inform me about the email sent. I WAS SUPPOSED TO RECEIVE IT LAST TUESDAY. it was one week late. nvm. i thought it was only some forms to fill in.
i thought, i thought. three attachments. i have to print and fill the forms, see a doctor, endorsement from OC unit (mr soh), photocopied NRIC, prelim results and bankbook. well. although i have repeated this for about 4 to 5 times, i will not hesitate to repeat it.
is my father or mother OC unit? is my father or mother a doctor? is my family or house running a business of photocopying (bookshop)? NO! all these were supposed to be done in a week's time, but because they were busy, we have to do these in less than 4 hours' time (email sent at 6++ and given that bookshop close at 10).
i have done my part by smsing to inform her.
she refuses to reply, talk coherently and politely, is it my problem? NO!21/11: i met up with rahimi to get the printed forms. after that, i boarded kianru's father's car to see them off to faraway taiwan.
the sec3 leaders are going to almost the same places we went earlier this year. they are not going to taipei 101, shi lin and all those fun places we left our footprints. they are going to 2 farms, syue mountain, *secret*(jiu fen) and then back to singapore.
i thought that was dumb. hahaha. but jiu fen will also be a good experience for them. 200 shops. my gosh. maybe cancelling out those shops that sell furniture and those which they might not be interested in.
let me, a shopper at jiu fen to intro you what are the jiu fen must-buys:
- tai yang bing ("sun" biscuits) it is similar to the wife's biscuits but different in a way too. hahaha.
- guo dong (jelly thing) although i did not buy, but i heard from others, it is really yums yums
- muah chee (muah chee la) it is also sold in singapore. so i do not really know why they must buy in taiwan. as in like, if i buy them, my mum will scold me.
- tie dan ("metal" eggs. actually just don't what animal's eggs) why metal, coz it is rather hard. it comes in many flavours. like hot, hot&spicy, original. it is sort of vacuumed packed.
basically, i think these are the food part. maybe they want to try the smelly beancurd. no one tried for our trip. hahaha. we were scared no one will talk to us. i sort of regretted it? my sister came back from taiwan and told me it was delicious, but really really smelly. i remembered me, yvonne, rachel and michelle will run when there is a shop selling it. it was really smelly. we wanted to smell nice, and not like smelly beancurd.
for the souvenirs part, i can say it was rather common. as in not like minitoons those kind you see. as in those which uses wood to manufacture them. wooden pen stands, wooden windchimes and stuff. the most uncommon thing bought from our trip was roland i guess. he bought a statue (chinese god, but i forgot which) for his family.
okay. i shall come back to the airport scene. their "name" was leopard. ours was apex. their bags were amazingly similar size for almost everyone's. suddenly, people cry. so scary. for my batch, everyone was too tired to cry i suppose. we have to fall-in in school at 530, 545 or 6. AM. so early. yawn until tears come out is more possible than cry. somemore, there are not so many people to see us off. only like some parents and some friends. you should have seen the crowd today. almost can assign 2 persons to each sec3 leader flying off.
i took photos with kianru and then for one i was ugly. for the second one she said she was awkward looking. the third one was rather alright. LOL. sort-of-goodbye hug then she cried. omg. scary la. suddenly you know. she cried until her contact lens went to the back of her eyeball. luckily, nothing happened. phew.
i really wish them all the best. they are going to scale the last 100m of the mountain and it is the see-god part. we did not make it up there for my trip coz it was raining with thunder. very very wasted. JIA YOU PEOPLE. YOU CAN DO IT!
