Hi!! im back!
ok...after my MLEP Camp @ NACLI, i had organized a class outing but...i've cancelled it totally!
i donno how my friends reacted to it, but i believe they we're surely disappointed. But, I did it coz i wanna let them hav some time 2 study for the upcoming Summer Test. By the way, Summer Test is actually the Mid-Year exams...my school called it Summer Test, maybe to make it sound more American...but it's quite cool...ok, back to the topic again...
i'm the one who organized this outing coz i thought dat the class lack bonding wif one another. so, i had confirmed everything...it's gonna be at Sentosa's Palawan Beach and we're gonna have a picnic there while celebrating my friend, Narrie, birthday...she will turned 17 on 18 June 06...after that we're gonna go sight-seeing at Sentosa such as go up the Sky Tower, the new go-kart thing plus some other exciting activities had already been lined up but, i cancelled it the day before the actual day, juz wanna inform my class that i cancelled it for the benefit of the whole class...i thought it was a good idea but my friends reacted to it negatively, especially the birthday gal...she got sooo fed up with my last min decision and still insisted to continue with the outing...she even put up a notice on our class website t say that the outing will still be on and it was organised by her & some other friends...
i knew it was my fault...but it's for their own good...actually i thought that our june hols are gonna be quite free since we need to prepare for our papers in our upconing summer test...but then, i realised that it was sooo packed with activities that i found out that we had only one full week to revise our work...so i thought postponing the outing to a later date should not be a problem as i believe my peeps also wanna hav some time to revise...
so, on the day of the outing itself, some who were informed that the outing was still on...i believe...came for it and so, i believe the birthday gal had a great time...so happy birthday to the birthday gal! (u wanna know hu, go figure out! hehe...)
my personal confessions....
I had actually sms-ed my peeps abt the confirmed outing on the second day of the MLEP Camp but only 2 or 3 replied...i thanked them for replying so that i could know hu will actually free on that day and actually able to come for the outing...but most of them didn't reply my sms and expect me to know that they are coming?!
for ur info, i had told my peeps that im sooo angry that they didn't reply my sms!!! wat's wrong with juz replying to my sms back?! 5 cents for juz 4 one sms also cannot afford izit?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im damn furious with their stingyness!!!
but, i believe i had done the right thing dat is to postpone the outing, even at the last min...it's for their own good...study is more important than the outing...even though they say that one day of outing won't hurt a single bit...yah...i mean its your future...
ok...juz drop the subject! it's over nw, so nw everyone agreed tat we'll gonna have an outing at the end of the year...so nw juz focus on PW (project work) and the Oct Mid-Course exams...more exams coming your ways, people...AAAHHH!!!

it's a fun two-day event since i got to meet a few new people...all from campteen...hmmm...who can i recall...it's mariam, jaz, syirr, hana, ada, alex, shuib, josh...(dit i miss someone else?), Dr Rahil, Ms...erm...sory ma'am, i forgot your name...so sorry...plus new J2 friends from my sch...ben & feng ru...also my peeps..kam & seri...it's a workshop on racial harmony...and i had to present to 95 students plus some guests in july...after attending this workshop...i learnt loads of stuff...so wanna know more...here it goes...
I gt to braddell station a lil' bit early...im there at 7.50am...it's suppose to start at 9am...so i took 232 from a bus stop outside braddell mrt station and head straight to toa payoh interchange...there...i went to mac to have hotcakes with sausage meal plus iced milo...eventually, i finished 'feasting' by 8.30am...and seri called me and she sounded surprised (plus sarcastic...) when she found out that i was at toa payoh instead of braddell...so i told her im having my breakfast at mac...DUH!!! i havn't had my breakfast...so i took da MRT to braddell...juz 1 station away...met them there and went to the venue...
we're early and the facilitator, Dr Rahil, was surprised to see us all 5, early, in our sch uniforms...while the others, those from campteen, were in their home clothes...soon i found out that it was unnecessary to wear home clothes, so we wore home clothes on the next day...on the 1st day, we bond with each other during tea and also, during the sharing of our life stories session...it was interesting thow know that every1 there had a great life since they were born...i shared with them my life such as i went for umrah (some kind of a haj, but only the stay in Makkah & Madinah was short...mine was 2 wks...), i also shared that i went to Terengganu, Malaysia and to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia...juz recently...i dont travel much thou...and i told them about my ambition..that is to be...yup, u guessed it! a DJ!!! & i shared to them that im one of the DJs in my sch's radio station, that is NOVA 21...with our catchy slogan...YOUR VOICE, YOUR MUSIC, YOUR STATION...and i hope that my experience in being a DJ cum student in my sch can help me gain a place in NTU (Nanyang Technological University)...in 1.5 years' time...under my dream course...i believe it's Degree in Communication Studies...insya'allah...hope ALLAH will give me the chance to be in NTU & study my dream course...
my peeps plus my new-found peeps are fun and i like the way we bond with one another, sitting on the floor; having lunch and cracking jokes and riddles and laughing out loud!! after the two day workshop, i hav made new friends and i feel like want to go for this workshop again coz, not juz me, but also my peeps, we cherish the friendship that we had created...btw Ada...one of my teammates...thx to her, i learnt loads of stuff on other race and religion...i posed her a question and she juz let go of the info for me to digest...hehe...bt, Ada...if you're reading this...i really gain a lot of info on Christians, the Chinese clans and also about your CampTeen...i'm very lucky to hav a friend sooo informatve like you...hehe...the others like jas, mariam, alex, josh are funny with their (lame) jokes...hehe...dont be angry, yah...these people plus all the others really knew how to break the ice until we really became friends as though we had known each other for so many years...
i really love to hear more from all of you, my friends from HarmonyWorks workshop...so email me anything...and update me on wat's happening in your life...ok?!
