yesterday was such a nice day.

1) it marked the finale of our 3x3hour lit lesson crash course.

2) we celebrated kw's bday at pizza hut.

3) elits plus kw plus hilda finally had lunch tgt.

4) we made a trip #2 to NLB.

5) njc 046 survived a traumatic plane crash. =p

lit lesson
i find quotes from king lear popping into my brain every now and then, stupid quotes like "crawl unburdened towards death" and "serpant like" and "cart drawing the horse"... but overall i find these 3 days (sat, mon, tues) of lit q productive.

Kangwei's birthday!!
we bought a nice cake. (ref kangwei's blog to see the pic of the cake.) and insisted kw say he's touched. =) then we added in the trick candles i brought fr. home.. those kind u can't extinguish after blowing it seems dead but suddenly the flame will reignite! (hahah IGNIS reignites!!) and shd jst catch the look on kw's face... he so incredulous... "huh?? how come the flame jst pop up again?"

aaaaand. i think i drank too much coffee ytd. i was too hyper. when sb suggested going on the opposite travellator, i did jst that. was like on a super-slow treadmill and i was trying to OVERCOME THE FORCES to get to the end but was holding my laptop plus bag at the same time n laughing so hard i could hardly walk... i was actually at e same pace as the rest of them on the normal travellator... but then there were so many ppl staring at me n i suddenly felt self-conscious n realised i was wearing a TEAM NJC shirt with the word "Softball"... MAN!! somemore i was getting dizzy also... hahah... it's lyk walking forwards but keep moving backwards...was halfway there and gave up n got out n walked normally. haha.

National Library.
NJC046 worked efficiently (as usual DUH) hehs. Nani n hilda did e written report n watched a rather -ehhem- movie related to our subject matter while me and kw searched for secondary research n photostacted analysed it. Then was about 7pm when we started speculating bout what would happen if a plane were to crash into the building... RIGHT AT US!!

we came up with lots of theories, but in the end decided we'd most likely perish in the crash. and started writing our last words to 05s08 n mr lum dearest. (haha).

extract from octomaniacs blog:

NJC046 is having a meeting at this moment at the national library, lee kong chian reference library level 11. we are sitting, facing the pan pacific hotel waiting for the plane to crash in our faces. in the event that we do not make it back home safely today due to unforseen(or forsee alr) circumstances, please tell mr lum chee fai that we regret not being able to continue our pw fully. we wish charmaine all the best in completing our unfulfilled death wish of getting an A1 in pw and promoting dating service for old low income singles. we wish her all the best in working solely with mr lum and hope that they will make delicious cheeli crabs together. we love 05s08. sorry to zi heng that the library books are all burnt and we wish him luck in his recovery of lost treasures.

Our parting message to our dearest octomaniacs is: Never give up on your PW no matter how tough it may be, because remember, we sacrificed our lives for the sake of remaking singapore.

please tell mr lum that he will always be in our hearts, hopefully NJC046 will forever be in his too.

in loving memory,
NJC046 minus charmaine.(hopefully charmaine, who is in changi airport now, will not be on the plane that crashed us)
muacks!

then when we finally packed up and left, njc046 took the lift down, and the lift is transparent!! so cool!! then all the way fr. 11 to ground level, there was no stop and it went q fast and all of us were like small tiny kids clutching the railing and making exclamations of wonder n joy. WAHAHAH. it's like we 1st time take lift liddat loh. haha.

then in a scarily short period of time, after saying bye to 046, my mood suddenly -FLASH- changed!! OMG!!

haha. maybe it's the fact that tran was stuck in school till v late n i was bored. or maybe it's the fact i was near cityhall area. or maybe it's the reminder that i'd be going home to an empty home tonight, since my grandpa, grandma, mom, dad, bro went for uncle's wedding dinner. or maybe the thought that my sis was not at home to chat with, to watch tv with... she was at obs... or maybe the laptop plus bag weighing me down n that reminded me of my impending visit to the hospital to chk my backbone or perhaps that very sms...

i dunno wat's up but by the time my train was around farrer park area, i was alrdy trying to hold bac tears. i think it was truly pathetic. was physically walking home, but felt like i was crawling... i wasn't tired, jst emotionally drained.

den when i went home, i went into the family room n sat there alone. how ironic, sitting alone in the family room. haha. then i felt so lonely. i dunno. i felt like nobody in the whole world cld cheer me up. like really NOBODY. i cldn't think of a single person who could (except for maybe Tis but she was at obs) his sms made me feel abit better, but as i said, nth can cheer me up.

my moods are so scary dont u think?

then suddenly as i was watching tv... i watched dis prog called "House" about a group of expert doctors trying to save lives of babies from epidemic... i suddenly felt my probs were so minuscule. I was alrdy lucky to be alive n healthy. Then when one of the babies died... the doctor said "time of death 6.57." i felt so sad!! it's like the baby barely lived for a day and it's gone like that!! then the mom was sobbing and sobbing n i felt so terrible for her... scolded myself for being so selfish when my probs are nothing compared to that woman or that baby. Then i packed up and went upstairs to take a bath and slp. =)

i admire guys who can put their ego down to admit when they are wrong and TRULY mean it. That is what puts a man apart from the rest of the boys. I'm...impressed. =)

last - next
