10:10 PM

Weird, weird, weird, WEIRD day.

As usual, lie in on Sunday mornings, after a very unpleasant MSN experience. Woke up and saw Weiqi's sms (or technically, Edwin. Or even more technically, from Leng) :

philwinds will be performing today (sun) at vivocity 1-2pm, level 1 atrium. Ask others to come too. Fantillusion, beauty n beast, galaxy 999, grease, coral sea
msg frm mr leng

Actually I was supposed to go to the library with Tze Han and Aik Hwee, since Aik Hwee invited me last week, so I was thinking that I should go to the Philwinds thing first then head for the library.

I reached Vivo at 1.10.

And NO ONE WAS THERE. As in, no Hwachong people. The actual location was packed though. Hundreds of people sitting on the white chairs, with Philwinds packed into a tiny stage. It wasn't even half the Philwinds. Later, Mr Leng said that three quarters of Philwinds had another concert (Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra) and some people have commitments on Sundays.

I looked wildly around. Then I gave up and just stood there, with my bulky books and bag. I was holding 4 books in one hand (Add Maths, 2 Jap textbooks, 1 Jap listening). The music was as usual Philwinds standard, but all poppish and suitable for y'know, event playing.

After every song I looked around. In the end the only person I found was Uncle Nicholas (Ng) from HCJC. Apparently he was also sorely disappointed by the turnout (of the attendance of HCIB people). He was expecting the whole band to be there.

After the performance we talked to Mr. Leng and we went around Vivo (because it's Leng's first time there *gasps*) and Leng treated us to Ben's and Jerry's (which is Nicholas' and my first time xP) Then Leng dropped us off at Bugis.

Yeah it's all very fun.

Oh it's Mr. Lim's birthday tomorrow (31/3). Please niao him about his age (39).

So when I reached National Library it's already like 5 something. And I haven't studied a single thing.

I went to the nearest level with decent seats. I opened my bag. And guess what?

I didn't bring my pencil case.

...

So I went home. I was on my way home, walking around the HDB flats in TP, and suddenly this dude walked up to me and asked for help.

"Hello, can you help me?"

Because he was visibly sweating and all, so I thought that someone jumped off a building and survived and needs medical attention or something, so I was like, "What? What happened?"

Luckily (or unluckily, as you would see later), he told me he was from Temasek Poly and apparently they're still having their orientation. And one of the tasks was to approach a youth in TP (so strange to call myself a youth) and do a task.

So I asked, "What?"

And he said, "You have to stand on me. I'll lie down and you have to step on my chest and move slowly down to my knee and back up. And you have to take a video doing it,"

WHAT.

And you know what's the most ridiculous thing? I AGREED.

Orientations are so absurdly stupid.

So we went up to Block 63 at some stairwell, where he lain down on the floor and I stomped on him. I swore I heard his ribs crack.

It was so funnily stupid. We were like two teenagers in a stairwell, doing some illicit stuff. Every time we heard footsteps, then I'll jump off whichever part of him and try again.

So, so embarrassing.

After that extremely torturous session (for me, since I seem to wince more than him when I move), he said, "I really don't want to ask this, but there's this bonus thing,"

I'm supposed to step on his FACE AND DO STUPID STUFF.

(Now as I blog this, it sounds really dumb, but at that time I was just in a daze and said yes to everything.)

After THAT, which took about 15 minutes, we were both visibly embarrassed and then he was like, "Erm, one final thing."

That point of time I screamed silently, "NONONONONONONONONONONO."

But I said, "Please tell me it's the last last thing."

The last task was to step on him for 5 MINUTES.

Ouch ouch ouch.

When I was done it was 8 plus. When I was about to go home it was 7.

What a crazy (understatement) day.

***

After that I went to buy stationery. My mum only gave me 35 bucks and her Popular card.

HELLO, how on earth do I survive with that in Popular?!

I spent 40 bucks.

And yes, I finally got my binder notebook. It is my new looooove.
