updates

it's been a while since my last entry
well
maybe not that long
but a lot has been going on for the past few days

30th nov
took a 1030am bus from kl back to penang
ALONE
yes
very boring
5 and a half hours awake without talking is a torture to me
i wont try it another time
plus i dont have any mp3 or cd player
ishhhhhhhhh
so u see
mp3 is a necessity if u travel alone
maybe i'll nag my mom to get me one
ehem

reached penang about 4
changed
and visited my granny at the hosp
she was admitted into gleneagle medical centre because of her astmma
but she's feeling better now
so no worries

1st Dec
woke up early
went to the school to get report cards and leaving cert
then left with chin ying to than siang temple
(FYI, i was going for a camp of four days
supose to be helping to take care a bunch of kids aged between 9 to 12 max)
i wasnt the one driving
i dont drive, remember
anyways, thanks a lot to chin ying

got there and it's a day before the actual camp
we were suppose to be there a day earlier so that we can learn stuff to teach the kiddos
eg songs, how to pray and how to deal with kids
the last one is not so helpful
u'll see what i mean later

stayed there till 9 pm
which left me exhausted
lack sleep very very badly by then
but i met lots of nice people there
interesting in fact

2nd dec
went to than siang temple again, early in the morning, around 7am
reached there and help to get the kids into groups
oh, kids HATE it when u call them kids!!
HAHA so like once upon a time me
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
and it was a MESS
kids everywhere
but at elast they dont cry
240 kids and only 45 adults tpo deal with them
ratio of 1:5
may seem possible to you right?
hehehehe
i was expecting the task to be a breeze
but oh man
how wrong i was!!!
i even said to my partners, we work in a team of five
"come on, how hard can it be to deal with them for 3 days? simple la"
the answer is
REALLY TOUGH
and i mean it

left around 11 after all thge kids settle down
coz i have dinner at night
with nothing to wear
and nothing means
no dress, no shoes, no accessories and hairdo plus make up
the dinner starts at six
so that leaves me 3 hours to shop for all those

and guess what?
i made it!!!!!!!
HAHA
by 3 pm
i have managed to buy dress, heels, and accessories
plus handbag
FYI, i do not have a dress, heels and handbag until then
as u can see
i'm not a girlie person ma
nvm
back to the preparation
went to joe's hse
and then left together got ariel's hse
but before that
i ate joe's mom's curry bread
which is NICE
heheh
NIce nice
some more home made wor
hehe
went to arie's hse and there's this make up artist there
after that went to davines for hair
all that cost me 50
i wanst willing to pay that much for a night
but what to do
last minute i decided to go
so "bo huat"
have to pay lo
dinner was okay nia
the setting was nice
and i know all the committee worked hard to make the event a success
but how fun can a dinner ( prom) be without a prom queen or prom king?
plus no dance floor!!!!!
this i cannot tolerate!
still can dance wiothout guys one ma

everyone really dressed up
so i didnt regret for dressing up too
if not
i'll look so so put of place
took pictures bla bla bla
i would've prefer to spend that kind of money on a trip la
more fun
or a barbeque by the beach
even more fun
plus walking in heels are no easy task
luckily i didnt fall
but my shoes are gone now
coz i do not know how 2 wear one ma
that was the first time i wore heels and use a handbag instead of a sling bag
lots of first time for me
i spent arounf 500 bucks on a single night
a lot right
gila me


went home early and didnt join the crowd to go pubbing and hang out at startbucks
my reason???
i'll be going to temple next day friend
cannot drink one
our religion tells us not to
yup yup
so went home and started packing AGAIN

3rd dec
the real nightmare begun
due to 2 hour walking in 2inch tall shoes
my legs were killing me
and still are
during the camp
we were not suppose to use the lift and instead have to use the staircase
so up and down we went
1st floor and fifth floor
up and gown looking for missing and sick kids
taking what they left in rooms, namecards, files, etc

now out to have lunch
more on the camp later
to be cont...
stay tune
