EMERGE '08

FRANCE EMERGED CHAMPS!!!!!!
I LOVE YOU KIDS! :)

LYNN'S BACK FROM CAMP EMERGE'08! 14/6-15/06. it was the most meaningful camp ever, being able to take care of so many kids and the kids are real cute i shld say! moreover, FRANCE WONNNNN!!!! HAPPY!!
14/6 Preparing and getting ready to set off!





let me intro my mentee :) he's SHAUN :)

yayy! we reached :)

got into our icebreaking groups :) and here's our darling athena and wenting!

and we see jinhan, chengyi, mengsoon, bryan, brandon and christopher (left to right)

look at what our dear boy brandon is doing! haha colouring the FRANCE flag!

and the two girls wilingly carrying my bag my me haha. so cute!

there! our dorm! 've been here before so nothing much :)

LOOK AT HER! doesn't she look very JAP!!!? *stares at her hair* haha.

LUNCH TIME :) but the poor me had to take vegetarian cause of my SPECIAL DIET.

games time! the games felt like some typical orientation games but we enjoyed it thoroughly! definitely!

this was the first game! captain's ball with balloon filled with H2O ! it was super heavy and it was super amusing looking at the kids play! haha.

i'm really happy. when we were playing the games it seemed as though we were rather slow and weak in our cheers but nevertheless the kids tried their very best and it was really a feeling of great satisfaction when we know that we were champions :) there was this specific game that left a very lasting impression on me. we were suppose to fill up a bottle of water to a specific mark using a cloth. meaning dipping a piece of cloth into water and it will be passed through everyone and last, the bottle. we're supposed to squeeze the water into the tiny opening of the bottle. it was very difficult at first but somebody thought of a very smart idea which is using a blade of leaf, fold it into a funnel like thing and use it. increased surface area to volume ratio i guess :) everyone was soooo co-operative during this game. it was then i realised how great teamwork we had. everyone was trying their best to get every single drop into that bottle. we managed to fill to the mark in the end although it seemed impossible at first. totally cool.

i'm definitely gna be part of CDAC childrens' camp again next year. it's a great feeling being a volunteer. to those out there, when you do something for others, you bring smiles to others :) be a volunteer today! :)

OH I FORGOT TO ADD THAT A FELLOW VOLUNTEER MISTOOK ME AS A KID TWICEEEEEE. sadness.

my life's not that bad afterall :)

SIS'S PRE-BIRTHDAY CELEB!

just ate my guilinggao :) yumyum :) and i have a good news (for myself)! WHEEE! have got a gooooood price for baileys :) have to thank my mom :D

met gem at 1230pm and we took neoprints! seriously, i think we lost touch with taking neos cause we totally screwed up but surprisingly they look not too bad!!

look, i think i have artistic talent! :D been ages since i took neos with my gem! :D hoho, then after that we went ESCAPE. and i think escape's really bad now. it's real lousy i shld say. we took the flipper ride thrice in a row cause no one was there. plus, my favourite banana boat ride and the 360 degrees spin were OUT OF ORDER?! rawr. anyw, we took the cadbury inverter and gem tan was super funny! i kept laughing throughout the ride though it was SUPPOSED to be scary.

my upgrading bananaboat :( sadness.

and this was the one that we took thrice in a row!

while waiting for pirate ship...

OH this was the ferris wheel that we took for free! was supposedly $6.50 but these 2 aunties here used the coupon that was sent to every household! to be honest, without the coupon, it's totally not worth $6.50. but nevertheless! we had fun! she's 16 this year and yeah! we got on to the 16th balloon! :)

on the balloon! i think it looks more like a bird-cage :\
decided to roam around the place and we saw smth real cute!!!

guess what this is!

OHMYGAWD. don't you think this is real cute!! mini bowling for cute-sey people!! the ball's like 1/4 the size of the real bowling ball! the boy was really cute when he bowled! but smhow, we were more interested in these machines:

spent 4 bucks here! played the photo thingo! the one which we're suppose to spot the differences between 2 photos? yknow? and i think they're totally sick. like 90% of the time we were given sexy photos of weird womannn.

and yeah we decided to go to terminal 3 for dinner :) cause gem tan hasn't been there before :)
she told me smth really funny today and anyw i expected it before so it's not that unexpected. HAHA. less than 2 hours more to her 16th birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIS :) MUACKSSSS!

alright, i guess i have to go now. bathe and start packing for my cdac camp tmrw! i hope the kids will enjoy themselves totally! don't miss me everyone! :)

update tonight!

Dilemma

should i go to the library later? dear jaspang just told me that she's going.

sighs.

...


so i went in the end. met her at around 11am and started to mugggg. i think i'm failing bio, definitely, looking at the amount of stuff that i have to memorise. and RAWR spent super long at this stupid and IRRITATING redox question. haha and jaspang said smth very funny, "hey i'm feeling hungry, does that mean i'm thinking a lot? *grins*" hahaha i told her that we burn more calories when we think so that made her think that she thought a lot that's why she felt hungry =.=" hahaha so innocent hahaha.

left at 6+ and met mommy on the way. actually wanted to meet ongong at macs to study but mommy wants me to stay home to accompany her. so i'm back home. life's mundane. i need to find something interesting to do! ohoh! i went to check out the price of Baileys! it's like $65.12. i'm brokeeeee. no money to buy :\ but i must get it. mom gonna check out the price from the supplier for me! i love you mommy! :)

hide, but it's not working

Unproductive day

it's a really unproductive day tdy. if i had studied since morning 9am at the study lounge, i could have been a little more productive. but thanks to all the travelling to school and back to the library, i wasn't in the mood to study properly :( syamil, all your fault :( haha.

met jaspang at Han's this morning and met up with yurui! been ages since i've seen her. seeing her makes me think of everyone else yet again. went school after that for interact meeting and we've decided to REBRANDDDD interact! i'm sure it'll soon become a cca that noone would wanna miss!

jaspang and sheena were talking about their friend, whom i think is anorexic. i've read a lot and i think anorexic people really need someone whom they trust a lot to care for them. try talking to them and make them feel that you ARE really their friend. it's curable, but it takes a lot of time. it's not easy telling themselves to stop being ano. it's not smth that can be controlled. they just feel guilty when they eat. and after eating, their minds are just filled with guilt. try to unstd them and don't ever force them. i believe one day, their friend will recover :)

i'm keeping a secret to myself. noone knows. those who think they know, they don't know. and those who don't know, they will ne'er know. hahaha.

...

i miss you girls.

my best 17th birthday celeb :)
