sawadee-kaa!!!! back from rayong! hmm.. when i was in thailand i was a bit homesick.. but now at home i wanna be back in thailand. .. or maybe not? dunno..
how's my host- buddy ? hmm.. she's a gal who lurves barbie doll and hello kitty, lurves to sing( which is ..f7), not really that friendly and don't talk that much [i think we talk less than 15 words a day ] .. maybe it's because her english is ... - ask her: 'how many times have you been to this place' and she would stare at you, blink blink, and after 1 minute say: i don't understand. *_*
tadah! that's her. zoom. my buddy.
..
so anyway, this's the itinary.

day1- MONDAY 14/11
-basically a whole day of travelling. from singapore to bangkok and from bangkok to rayong. and when we reached rayongwittayakom school.. WHOA. the way they welcomed us. just WhOa. they were like screaming and cheering and shouting and beating drums and some even kowtowing! 
goodness! such strong cheering spirit!
after that was some reception thingy where there was yummy ice cream and fruits and drinks for us. then we parted our ways and each went to our host house.
~
~
~
day2- TUESDAY 15/11
the most tiring day. no. the most exhausting day. soso tiring and exhausting. my eyes were sort of puffed up and so small and i couldn't even smile at all.
there was a welcome ceromony for us in the morning and later that day we learned wai and how to write thai wordings and how to make kratong. then we were dismissed and i went to play bball and next went shopping with my buddy and a few of her friends. + dinner at a roadside stall, which i was a little worried that i would get a stomachache. luckily i didn't..phew
~
~

day3- WEDNESDAY 16/11
woke up super early as we had to go to attyua. err.. aydttuya. no. ayudthaya.. [AHH i dunno how to spell] province, which was 4half hours journey from rayong. further than bangkok. ah!
when we reached we went to some exhibition thing and later at some other place, went around in small groups. -sightseeing, some shopping, and elehant riding. yay!
nice!
3 of us on the stage where we were bitten by ants
on the bridge
next we took the bus to the river and sailed down the river in a boat (duh!). dinner + karaoke on the boat. 
by then it was night time. and after the boat ride we 'set off' our kratongS and took a bus back to rayong. it was 12?am++ then. watched mr and mrs smith in the bus. yay! slept close to 3.
~
~
~
day4- THURSDAY 17/11
learned how to cook tomyum soup and another thai dish. yummy!
next we went to our buddies' classroom. hmm their school life seems kind of relaxed. during school hours you can see students playing in the field and courts and chatting away at some other place. in the classroom the students talk all they want and blast their favourite music and sing along and the teacher doesn't say anything! *_*hmm.. 
after that was sports and some of us played volleyball and basketball against our thai friends. and all of us played tug-of-war in the rain in the field.
at night we watched.. harry potter! hmm i think too many parts were cut and some parts were changed.. like about ludo bagman, the part about barty crouch, karkaroff, and dobby giving gillyweed to harry, and harry asking cho chang to go to the ball with him. hmm.. too many changes. and if you watch the movie without 1st reading the book i think you wouldn't understand a single thing. X_X
~

day5- FRIDAY 18/11
we had the rehearsal for the farewell party + we learned thai dancing until about 2.

~
~
~
day7-SUNDAY 20/11
the worst afternoon of the trip today. before the farewell party we had to makeup and stuff.. so my host brought me to a shop in the market. and so i sat on a chair in front of a mirror and closed my eyes, and the makeup person did her work, and when i opened my eyes later, OMG! i looked horrible! my face was thickly powered, there was lipstick and eyeshadow, my eyebrowns were plucked, eyelashes curled.. ARrggh! X_X next they styled my hair.. all combed up and later dunno-how-much-gel-was-put, my hair turned hard and sort of crispy. BLEH X__X
went to school and muahaha almost everyone was liddat too. except AP jh who came to school at 5 (when everyone came at 2 )and didn't have that much make-up on. hmmpf! not fair! >.<
the farewell party at night went quite well and after dinner and our performances, there was dance! yay! ahaha. the duh dance and the boxing dance. wheehee so fun! after that there were alot of hugs and some cried.. it was as though we were never gonna see our thai friends again.
oh yes! another thing.. many thai girls fell in love with rodion. eg like non! ahaha
~
~

last day- MONDAY 21/11
it's byebye thailand today.. :/ early in the morning we took bus to bangkok.yay! watched war of the worlds on the way:D
halfway there was a short stop where we bought tibits. once we reached the airport we checked in. [wahhhh! no time for shopping! we could only shop in the airport. which was reallyreally damm ex. ahh!] and there were many hugs again and all our thai buddies except some of the boys cried. :( 
it's back to singapore. byebye BIGbig mass of flies and mosquitos and stray dogs and darkness at night. i miss everything but those. ahh.
so that's STEP. quite ok right? next year march our thai buddies will be coming to singapore. 4 more months! hmm wonder how they will find singapore.. prices for most things here are much higher than in rayong. i spent roughly 3000 baht on: 1 addidas shoe and shirt, 1 nike shirt, 1 slingbag, a souvenier, 6 bars of chocalate[yumyum i ate alot :p], 2 chewing gum, 5 packs of crackers, tibits, 7 bottles of green tea and mineral water, aiport tax, and donated some.. hmm 130+- s'pore$ . with this amt of money i think i would only be able to buy a shoe and shirt here.

anyway, gtg sleep.. byebye!

pai wei is ... TORTURE! arrrgh! toady pai wei again! ahh! after da zhu! X_X ahhh so tiring! we moved all the chairs from co room to canteen to practise pai wei -ing. i've just realised that pai wei is NOT an easy task and next time when there are performances i won't ever grumble if the pai wei people placed the chairs slightly in the wrong position. bleh X_X
ahh. muscle aches everywhere, at least 4 blue-blackS or rather bruises on the legs, stiff arms, aching back, blistering fingers, constant tiredness. these are the pai wei symptoms.
bleh today we pai wei-ers pai-ed straight after da zhu which was supposed to end at 12 but which ttk dragged on to 12.30, up to 3.45. no lunch! hmmpf! we thought the seniors were buying lunch for us but actually they bought only for themselves.. and so while we were pai-wei-ing in the canteen, they were happily munching away on their chicken rice. arrggh! hmmpf but anyway i don't think there was time to eat. xp
after pai wei we had to arrange the canteen tables and long benches because the were all stacked in 1 pile. sort of. and so 1 person had to carry like 1 bench from 1 side of the canteen to another. and drag the damm heavy tables too. arrggh! and we had to move chairs to hall >.< push 15++ at a time to foyer spiral staircase and later carry 4or3 at a time to hall...
ahh. what a tiring week. tomorrow have to go to school at 9.45.. meet at foyer. the whole day gonna be very busy. reach home maybe like 9++pm. ahh i still rmb clearly what Ms chong said: don't tire yourself too much before the thailand trip . rest well! cuz thailand trip will be very 'busy''? or something like that. ahhhh! i haven't even packed my stuff for the trip! or really rested! wahhhh

an okok day today.. but the WORST day of the 4 days for east zone training camp. because of.. PAI WEI! aRrggH! stupid pai wei! we had to move chairs from 4th level dnd room to ground floor(4 at a time) and later move chairs around in the platform under the hot scorching sun. horrible! ooh and lastly move the chairs from the court to co room , and the long chair and table from outside co room to canteen. I HATE PAIWEI! arrggh why aren't there pai wei- ers which we can employ? hmm.. :(
so anyway.. there was the usual stuff for the morning today. except that ttk went to hear the qi zhou play and i think they were all so damm nervous. ahaha. everytime the door opened ( while practising and waiting for ttk to come) everyone would all turn around with wide eyes to look at who it was. and there were some rehersals on how to greet ttk. T__T and when ttk finally came( he was verY late) and the kids started playing song wo yi ge mei gui hua, the da xiao shen was really exaggerated. especially the xiao shen. it was so so so soft till i almost couldn't hear. lol. me and sherlyne kept on laughing. ahaha ^_^
oh and lunch break. me biyu sherylne left 15 minutes earlier to prepare all the drinks. in the end we all got scolded really terribly by zhou muo because we didn't bring the qi zhou kids to eat and they were left in the co room. sorry zhou muo!
wah zhou muo scolds really really terribly.. it's horrible to get scolded by her cuz she is so so strict that's it's just like getting scolded by kiw or something and after being scolded we were all quiet and stunned.
ahh i thought there were some others in the co room and the kids weren't left alone! :( okokok it's not''i thought''. there WERE some others left there... ahh nevermind.
i gtg bathe.. my shirt stinks! i think. wanna smell? ahahaha. it's soaked with sweat and some parts have rust on it.. all because of pai wei! arrggh! >.<

ohya there was paiwei today.. it's BORING! i'd rather go fenzu than tt lo.. x_X. boringboring.. just ban yi zi here and there in the co room. according to eugene, tmr we have to ban yi zi around in the volleyball court or the platform, under the hot scorching sun. AHH! hope it rains tmr!!! bleh X_X

*黑色毛衣 *
一件黑色毛衣 兩个人的回忆
雨过之后 更难忘记
忘记我还爱你
你不用在意 流泪也只是刚好而已
我早已经待在谷底
我知道不能再留住你 也知道不能没有骨气
感激你 让我拥有秋天的美丽
看着那白色的蜻蜓 在空中忘了前进
还能不能 重新编织 脑海中起毛球的记忆
再说我爱你 可能雨也不会停
黑色毛衣 藏在那里 就让回忆永远停在那里
(btw if u see weird characters instead of chinese words, change the encoding to unicode)

***
ahh. today. went to my teacher's house then i found out ruan class was cancelled. woke up sooo early for nothing. bleh. turned on the com and found out that some people had their classes changed. because we take MEP. so no 3sci cuz teachers are afraid we cannot cope. bleh . x(
they should just give us 3sci- if we know we cannot cope, we wouldn't have chose that in the 1st place.
heard fom MengDie that Mr. N.B.K almost wanted to not let me take 3sci.. cuz my percentage is below 70. phew thankfully he changed his mind. anyway if i didn't get 3sci i would appeal like crazy.. it isn't fair if getting into 3sci class is based on overall marks and not math and sci grades.
hmm..shan't talk about this anymore. back to..drawing octupus on adobe. YAY! ^_^ :P
