decades too late!

this is marcus' bow.. or is it jasmine's?
or emma's?
...
anyway.. compare it to these:

we like to call them "pro-bows"
so you get "probos" if u say it really fast
sounds wrong, rite?
:S
people "retrieving arrows"
quote unquote
marcus and kenneth are in the crowd somewherethere is ALWAYS
A CONVERSE PICTURE an empty cup of milo
that was free
it came from a very VERY annoying milo truck.
why was the milo truck annoying?
1. people congregate at it with GIANT empty bottles.. so when lodgians try to get a drink,... "nomor"
2. it ALWAYS comes at the least expected times
3. it sure as hell takes its time parking :(
4. it's so "silent" that we don't even know it's here until only AFTER all the milo is gone

stupid milo truck...



here are the guys :)that's marcusand there's Kenneth (the krill) Yap
from form 2D

It was the last day of the competition, and cikgu KENNY LIONG couldn't take us because he had to go with the form5s to (i forgot where)

so.. guess who took us instead :S
OUR DEAR CIKGU FRANCIS TAN


we sorta claimed a place under the canopy.. so here's us hanging out thereemma sharing milo with kenneth

that we filled OUR bottles with milo
heck, we could've BATHED in it
it was SCORCHING HOTmarcus and i
jasmine held the camera

it's DARKER
and believe me
THAT'S A GOOD THING

can you imagine the HUGE sense of relief
that we all felt??ohhhh yeahhh

then, GOD showed us mercy and sent rain.. it rained so heavily that there was THUNDER and LIGHTNINGand BOY WERE WE HAPPY. so finally, FINALLY after two straight days under the sun, our (well, my) faces burnt, (scalded) it finally rained.. POURED. it was sooo refreshing i was tempted to jump around in the wet and dance like some crazed, red-faced, human lobster hybrid. there has never been a moment that i appreciated storms as much. if you remember one of my first posts, i told you i hated storms... i still do, no doubt -__- but THIS was a perfect time for one..

i couldn't have asked for anything better

and so it rained so heavily for the rest of the day.

so heavily that i couldn't take a picture as everyone was squashed under the two canopies.. the water began to flood and it was like Noah was revisiting us from beyond the grave O.o

the closing ceremony ..
ahh, now that's a story


but as with all good stories

it doesn't come with pictures O.o
sorry!!

mr Ling, our headmaster, graced us with his precence. lol keng english.

emma came in fourth overall and i came in fifth. in school, she mostly gets all the praise. Don't mind me if i sound whiny, but i just get a nod from the teachers, or most times, i'm ignored. wow, thanks for the positive reinforcement -__- i'm not looking for showers of praise, but can you imagine being second-fiddle? even second-fiddle gets noticed. so close, and yet so far Ignore this little bit, i'm just venting.

i'm just feeling a little under-appreciated

but emma has indeed shown great athletism and i am DEFINITELY proud of her. i'm proud of all of us, no matter how good or bad we've done.

there are no losers.

when we all got home,
safe
sound
WET

i took one last picture to remind me of my time here...THAT WAS HOW MANY SKIN TONES DARKER I WAS
scary?
i think so

there's another competition in august...
here we go again!!SUNBURN!!!
