the 2nd day

of holidays. (i start counting from monday.)
of the week.

spent half of my day outside yesterday.

first is the exco lunch treat from mr gan. no pics taken though, will do so at sakae next week. :) talked about alot of random things together. and i realised that i left out some points in the previous entry. lols. write next week ba. =.=

then the last session of attachment. they were short of people yesterday, helped to take case instead of typing case as i was told the previous session two weeks ago. finally met mr mp. it's quite fun actually, listening to people and then summarizing the stories. at first i was rather unsure whether i could do it, because i only did one case before, but after a while it becomes routine with the guidance of the volunteers there. family background, claims, requests...... they say we can go back there to work as volunteers if we liked. but will see again. i don't live in pasir ris afterall. anyways, left my number, but hoping that i won't get spammed with invites to community work now.

but then again, how to decline...?? "NO!!!! i refuse to give you my email and my number!!!! CAN'T!!!! DON'T WANT!!!!" ??? cannot right? give lor. what to do.

anyway, last-last-week (16th and 17th) i went to help out backstage at liu laoshi's show 《大人不见了》for two days. it's an interactive children show at jubilee hall, almost every show is full house neh. got the really "cheena" families, and the really "angmoh" pai ones. there was even a couple who are foreigners taking their child and translator to the show. i would say the show's rather good, very bright colours and the animals are so adorable. and the songs are catchy. lol. this is my second time working with really BIG props. helped to touch up the props and move stuff around. and make sandwiches. hahahahhahaha. felt somewhat lost at times cause didn't really know everyone there. not like when working with CCS. but really, backstage may not have much work for everyone, and it may get boring (i actually fell asleep for a while during the third show :P ), but even if you think it's minor, every job is important and must be done lo. i guess this is the same for every production. was looking at the pretty lightings while slacking at the side also. hope to get a chance to do lightings someday. :D oh i did ushering too! ushering is fun. "let me take you to your seats, this way please! 您的座位是几号?这边请!" hahahahaha. B)

but i suppose, acting still gives the greatest satisfaction. oh well...



the seats...


that "forest" is actually made up of eight very tall pillars.


peeping in progress. :P


lovely effects.


and lovely lightings. lol. don't know what to say.


yep. and last thurs and fri was e-learning as i mentioned quite some time ago. we had this stupid timetable to follow and in the end due to technical errors they are opening up all the modules for the whole of june. sheesh. so don't need kan chiong la. anyway there's a loophole in their system cause there's a way to access the module even after they've disabled it from the site. hoho.

anyway, i went back to school on friday for the dialogue that all singaporean tm students were down for. something to get youth perception on relationships and marriage, like a survey like that, just that it's with the discussion portion. encouraging youths to plan for their beautiful future with a good career and fufilling family life with kids. if only things in life would be that perfect. found that the dialogue was based on a very huge assumption that everyone takes the same route. if only things in life would be that fair and successful for everyone. if only. at the end of the day it's undeniable and we would have to admit that planning and setting goals and whatsoever, is just for you to be clearer of what you want so that you can work (harder) towards it. but, you may not get it afterall. it's just ideals versus reality.

so, why plan? - that's what i think now. maybe this view will change in time. i don't know. but, i don't really get the point they're coming from. maybe because i don't think about these things and have no plans yet. *shrugs* but it reminded me of maths. the chapter on sampling about choosing people as random sample and something about biased data. lols. they claimed that it'll be about the same response in other schools. then, why sample?

ok im being crappy. that session left a blank in my head. i just don't get it. and i don't know what i don't get. and i'll just keep pondering as usual. maybe i should stop thinking about it. lols.

next! i bade farewell to my long hair on sunday (25/5) after so much considerations that my sis wanted to silence me. lols. sobx. T_T ok i know the order of events here is rather messed up. lols. but after this entry it'll get better. ;) so now i have shorter long hair. -_-



misses that long-ness a teeny weeny bit, but okay la. realised i don't really have pics of myself and that length of very long hair though. my shoulders are sore cause there's not much weight falling over it now. lols. okay, narcissism's coming up. better go off now. ^^
