Drawing days

Look, yesterday(19/3) was a GREAT DAY. Couldn't be any better.
First, in the morning. I USED MY BROTHER'S toothbrush. OMG. I only realised after the 2nd brush. So disgusting! Yuck. I coughed, I choked, I etched. (Sorry if you don't understand, just pronounce the word to get the meaning.) And brushed my teeth thoroughly.

Then I got a SMS from Nina asking if I was at the meeting point yet. What the heck in the world? So early?! Then I was rushing... Suddenly another SMS from Alicia. She can't find her marbles! First "death" in the morning. (I said/thought "die liao" and that is a "death".)

I carried my big bulky bag to the meeting point (Bukit Batok CC) and found Nina. Then we walked to the bus-stop then I realised I have not seen Yun Yu who was supposed to give me ping pong balls. So I called him. It was drizzling. Turned out he was still at home and he decided not to come. I told him no need to bring the balls as there were no marbles so we can't play that station. We later had trouble trying to explain where exactly is the 176 bus-stop. Nina was speaking, and I was speaking, so it was no wonder he got confused.

Well, then we took the bus, and we chatted about nothing. I mean, alot of nonsensical stuff. And then Ying Li and Mo boarded the bus. I was blur like a sotong. Mo and Ying Li went to sit behind about 2 feet away(actually I don't really know how much is a feet, it's just an approx, hehe.)

So I chatted with Nina, but later I didn't really understand what she was talking/saying. It was like blabbering. So I also blabbered. I just said alot of crappy stuff. We alighted soon after.

Then we met Hao Lin at the entrance.(Seriously I didn't know it was him standing there, I thought it was some weird guy until he walked towards us and Nina started to talk to him.) And we went to Macs to see Alicia, then I spotted her parents. I was shocked. I mean what if her parents started to ask me about what we were going to play and do, blah blah. But Alicia didn't seem like something was wrong, so nothing was wrong and we just went off. My second "death". Then I saw Yee Shuin and realised she was here too.

And we were out at the play grounds. I tried to climb a rope ladder...you know the one behind the swing-like thingy. I reached the part where I wanted to turn so as to climb down the ropes.

And my left leg got stuck.(I was in a kneeling position.) Stupid. Snap.

AND DAMN. I used too much force to pull my leg out. And I fell. I bet Nina thought I heeded her suggestion and jumped down. I got a cat-like scratch on my leg. Dots of skin here and there peeled and blood came out of these "holes". Hao Lin couldn't see it and "malign" me that I was lying. "No blood what?" I'm not a zombie okay? I got BLOOD.

Adeline, Faye and An Qi arrived later.

Okay, lets fast forward to the part where we were all at the Grand Lawn. I had told Yun Yu to bring ping pong balls again because I figured we could still do SOMETHING with them. Turned out I was wrong. When we were at the Grand Lawn no one was co-operating. They don't know how to split. Okay, I expected that from 6 Amethyst. But I thought at least they're Sec 1 and aren't kids anymore. So they're not 6 Amethyst, they're EX-6AMETHYST. I really wasn't expecting that little people. I thought that everything could work out according to the plan I so carefully planned out for a whole day and a half. More than a half. Excuse me, to get the plan worked out does not depend on the organiser, it depends on the people and the day/location. As so I learned. Because whatever I did didn't change anything at all. I had to be like a teacher grouping them up. I had to join in the game to have the groups evenly split. And Jia Jun was busy in his own world, trying to play snatch-the-ball-and-ruin-the-game. WALAO. "3rd death".

Jia Jun, you are a childish clown. You think it's cool? We laugh not because you look cool. We laugh at YOUR stupidity. How can anyone be so childish? You actually think it's very fun. I pity you seriously. Cause of your brainless antics. I laugh at your foolishness. Cause you really don't know where the heck you stand. It's was your loss you made friends with Brandon and learnt that "talking back is cool" when everyone else (esp. the girls) think you're making yourself into a idiot.

No body was playing. They were all doing their own stuff. There wasn't even enough people for the hosting team! What the heck. But I was determined to get my equipments used at least. My big bulky shitty bag. With alot of printed papers and cards and heavy bulky items for the gathering. And then, without informing me, the "teacher", they headed for Macs again. What? They all made me act like a teacher right? They don't have the initiative to split. And I don't want to mention names. In the end all my fault right? I didn't live up to expectations. Especially when my organisation plan seems all too well to be true. Yea, you all want to play. But if you really wanted to, you would have already split yourselves.

So in Macs, they went to eat. I bought ice-cream. Then we(Nina,An Qi and I) received calls from Yu Jia and we finally brought him to Macs. I decided to go on with the planning, setting up the stations. So An Qi and I prepared the stuffs. Suddenly everyone was going out. I was like huh? And then I went out too. Then they walked to don't know where. Which was so far away. Great. They just go do what they want. They feel like exploring, they just go. And they tell me they want the treasure hunt. So I had to tell them that I was going to set up the station? Okay, then it was my fault. Even if I go set up, I need to call them back. And I don't know where are they going. So frustrating. An Qi said something about setting up later.

Why are they like nomads and keep walking everywhere? Go Macs again. Go out to play again. The whole crowd go here and there. It was so comical. The bunch of heads head towards the Macs. Then head towards the playground. Like zombies/robots. Oh, so I, the "teacher" have to gather them up like little kids and say "come here, come here" and then "stay here and don't wander off". It's so embarrassing right? Then I was spun around and round so quickly and violently, my world went topsy-turvy and my stomach had a feeling like I was going to vomit. And An Qi joked that I was pregnant. The feeling I had was a mix of frustration, resentment, sick, confusion.That's when I sms-ed Pui Yee and Yun Yu (because they're the 2 people I was waiting for) during lunch telling them I felt sick. I received a call from home and told my maid I was going home at about 3-4pm. I really wanted to go home. And get out. NOW.

4th death.

Then after playing with the swing-thingy for a long time, we returned to Macs again. I bought a drink. And I got a call from Yun Yu that he was coming soon. So I was trying to know where he was and soon he was at Macs too. Then we went to find Alicia, and Yun Yu started to give out his birthday presents. Suddenly my birthday present was slammed into my face. I didn't get a chance to say "thank you" before he turned away and gave out other presents. So sad and disappointing. But I went to ask him if I could open it and I got an "Animal Coaster". I know the present was something you put under your cup. But I didn't know it was called a coaster. I was thinking roller coaster. Actually at home I never use these, but I just realised yesterday(20/3) that I could use it on my new study table we bought yesterday(sorry if it's confusing) especially since my table can't withstand water. It was so cute!! But right, the wrapper was really thin, so I tore alot of it. But I put the scotchtape back and when I reached home I decided not to use it until I reopened it on my birthday. :D

Pui Yee soon came. It was a relief. We played "Eagle catching chicks" and Yun Yu was the mother hen. I was behind him and I was laughing like mad. I meant the way Yun Yu flapped his "wings" was really damn funny. Plus the way he runs sideways. SO FUNNY. And Pui Yee laughed until she cried and pretended that she cried because no group photo. I played along, asking everyone to line up and set themselves for one. I remembered chasing after Jia Jun and whacking him. I forgot why. I spat saliva(which was disgusting, I know) and hit my wrist against a metal grille. My metal watch cut into my wrist so there was a little cut there, and blood was bleeding out from a hole in the vein. It's small so I'm not going to die okay? But then people threw sand at me so my injuries were very itchy and the cut on my wrist had swelled a little. Soon it was 3.30pm I realised so I told Pui Yee I was going home.

And I really needed a drink so I went to Macs again. I realised I spent alot. This gathering sucks. It's a crime. A robbery of my effort, my money, my time and a cheat on my feelings. Someone commented my stupid bag was like the bag in "Ai yo yo lao shi". Ya, and I brought such a humongous bag for who? And why wasn't it useful? I went home after getting my watch back from An Qi(I lent her 1 of my 3 watches for the games) and going to toilet. On the bus ride, I felt alot of resentment, and I was superbly angry. The more I think of it, the more frustrated I am.

When I reached home, I ripped up the papers I printed, threw the equipments on the floor and went for a shower. Forced myself to cry to release the hate I had. (Actually, I wasn't so emotional, but I really wanted to make myself cry to feel better.) Then got scolded. Later I was told about the rest of the gathering. How could they? While I was so frustrated at them? They had all the fun? Unreasonable, I was. Spent so much time. Got nothing in the end. I could have done my homework. I could have. And I should have really cancelled the gathering. The first part of my post on the class blog should have been real. But then, Pui Yee and Alicia really wanted it. So maybe I should have cancelled the games. I resent it.

Yesterday I got some goodies. Felt a little better. Had a nicer jacket to wear and a study table to do my homework.
My study table is DIY and it's very small. But never mind. A lot of homework to do.
