Met up with a few council mates for lunch at Ehub, Just Acia after my driving lesson. Going to pasir ris very much reminded me of my jc days, and eating at Just Acia reminded me of how our council meals always end up there or either at BBQ chicken! Haha! The guys r still the same! As loud and retarded as ever! jkjk! :P And forever talking abt NS! I could only catch what they r talking when Adrian bothered to explain the different terms and whatever abt NS! But yea, knowing they spend 5 out of 7 days in NS, its understandable. Hahas!
Thomas suggested to watch Ice Age 4! I was quite surprised a person like him will be so insistent to watch a cartoon film! Haha! But the movie was gd! Had many moments of laughter! Like the squirrel running after the nut, the granny part etc. A perfect movie to catch if u wanna destress! A simple story line, with lessons behind the plot such as treasuring ur loved ones, and not to let anyone change who you really are. yeaps!
Ohh! And I love their theme songs, the lyrics are nice! Very much reflects how different grp of ppl can get along so well like a 'family' like the different grps of friends that crosses ur path and stays in ur life and you guys are really close like a family(: Enjoy(:


 We are, we are
Not your ordinary fam-fa-mily
But we can all agree that
We are, we are
Close as close can be

So it don't matter what it looks like
We look perfect to me
We got every kind of love
And we're so lucky indeed
They can keep on talking
It don't matter to me
Cause we are, we are
Family

We are, we are, we are, we are, we are, we are
We are, we are
Family
Family
We are, we are
Family

So what we don't look, we don't act, we don't walk, we don't talk like you do
So what if we hang just to hang
Ain't no shame
We both do want we want to
Cause we come from everywhere
Searching for ones to care
Somehow we found it here
We found us a home

We are, we are
Not your ordinary fam-fa-mily
But we can all agree that
We are, we are
Close as close can be

So it don't matter what it looks like
We look perfect to me
We got every kind of love
And we're so lucky indeed
They can keep on talking
It don't matter to me
Cause we are, we are
Family

OK so the links in our chain
May look strange but they make us stronger
And no one can replace not a thing
Mother or father cause weeeee

We come from everywhere
Searching for ones to care
Somehow we found it here
We found us a home

We are, we are
Not your ordinary fam-fa-mily
But we can all agree that
We are, we are
Close as close can be

So it don't matter what it looks like
We look perfect to me
We got every kind of love
And we're so lucky indeed
They can keep on talking
It don't matter to me
Cause we are, we are
Family

Family
Yeaaah
We are, we are
We are, we are
Family!

SMU Freshmen Team-building Camp (FTB) was awesome!! It was a 3D2N camp, held at Saribum Scouts Camp! Met awesome ppl, groupmates, facis and did many things I myself never expect to do! I was in Captain America Group 7! :D

On the 1st day, we registered and assembled at SMU admin building! I was one of the lucky few who came early and manage to get a seat. Met lavi and Dharch! Soon the rest of our grp members came! There was an opening address by the Dean, students' association president and like an intro abt the camp! There were 4 clans; captain america, hulk, thor and iron man! I just love all of their cheers! The facis all performed their cheers for us and a mass dance they have created! I love the mass dance the most! While waiting for the bus to fetch us the campsite which is at some ulu place. We introduced ourselves and I found another fellow Meridian, Rachel, who had been sitting in front of me during econs lecture! One of my faci, Chelsea was also my senior!
Upon reaching Saribum campsite, the first activity we had was to pitch a tent! It was my first time pitching a tent, but it was easier than expected.. cos it was the conventional tent where u have to nail it to the ground and stuff, had lunch. Next, we had to come out a name for our grp! And guess what, we're name 'A-hem', cos we have no idea what name we shld have, but it was cute! hahah! Its like the sound when u make when you're coughing. Hahahas! And for our banner, it was rather simple, decorating it with many q. marks ard! And I love the cheer we created! Credits to Jennifer!
It goes like this:
Who are we? A-hem! A-hem!
Who's going to win? A-hem! A-hem!
*turns to other grps* 
You think you're gonna win? 
*covers mouth* A-hem! A-hem!
Thats the way A-hem! A-hem! 
We like it A-hem! A-hem!

Haha! Quite cute right?? I like the part 'you think you're gonna win?' heh!
Played a couple of teambuilding games! One game requires u to climb over the wall! To overcome this activity, i really must thank the guys! For letting my step on them and for pulling me up! I was seriously hanging there and would not be able to pull myself up if Davin didnt apply some arm strength! *Teamwork is the key* And we manage to get everyone across the wall! hehe! A sense of accomplishment!
The 2nd activity is some spiderweb game where we have to get across a series of strings as a grp without touching them! I tell u I've never been so dirty! I seriously followed the guys in front and crawl both on my back and using my arms! Both sides of my body r filled with soil and whatever u can find on the ground! The 3rd activity was to transport each member through the hole of a hanging tyre! My hands was aching straight after the activity! Had mass dance after that! Super fun! I dunno why i like mass dance so much! Hahas! Dinner and a couple of activities at night!
The waiting time for showering was terrible! Waited there with amanda and rachel like forever! But the feeling of being all clean was awesome! I was seriously half awake and asleep the whole night! The tent is seriously insufficient for 5 ppl!!

2nd day! Mass dance, breakfast. And I volunteered to help out for the clan's performance, just thought I shld step up at times and help out(: So the 4 of us, lavi, Ka Shen and Getson who kena picked when he unintentionally raised his hands while yawning! So the 4 of us with a few others from other grps in the same clan decided to do a mass dance. The I/Cs made us split into 3 different grps and each grp was supposed to choreograph their own moves for the respective songs! I can believe i followed Ka Shen and Getson to do the moves for the song 'I'm sexy and I know it', shld have seen the way Ka shen do those moves! Super hilarious! But it was gd!
Played a few games, 1st was one that requires us to slide down into a pool of mud!! Wahh! Ultimate gross!!! The sliding was fun! But not the mud! The next activity was to go down into a milo pool aka mud pool to play captain's ball!! That was the dirtiest day ever!! Wash up! Then we had our night finale! Performed and watch the other clans perform and there was a live band too!! Awesomeness!!! The sound system was super gd and everyone was super high! Was going all hyped up and singing with the grp! After the band stopped playing, they blasted clubbing music! Seriously was like in a club! So many ppl showing off their moves esp the guys! Was seriously enjoying the music! Cant believe I actually had 2nd thoughts of going the camp! Hehe! After that, our grp decided to play more games with each other, afterall its our last night tgt! We played games like 'I never...' ,'2 truths, 1 lie' and the traffic light game where we all exposed our relationship status. After shower, we had htht session with our facis till abt 2plus!

3rd day was the great challenge! Played a series of games with the aim of completing all of them with the shortest period of time. Hahas.. i'm getting lazy to blog abt the 3rd day! Hahas! so yups thats all abt it. Was super super tired when i reached home! Slept like 14h straight after bathing and dinner! Feels so gd to be in my comfy bed! Hahas!
But FTB is seriously a camp not to be missed! Looking forward to our next catch-up session with the grp! Which is dinner and bash at zouk! Hoping all will keep in touch, bid modules tgt and perhaps go for sch events tgt(: Captain America Gp 7 FTW! If u guys ever see this, though I'm the quieter side, and easy-going as most have described abt ur impression of me... hahas! But just wanna say love you guys!! And hope u all had as much fun as I did!


Nah Nah Nah Nah~

I had an awesome time at Corrinne May's concert ysd! It was held at Gardens by the Bay! All thanks to Alicia who had complimentary concert tickets, so she invited the 3 of us, ping hao, ying ting and I for the concert(: The weather was great, cos it had rained in the afternoon, so it was cooling at night. The 4 of us laid a huge plastic bag that Alicia had bought and we sat there to enjoy the music! Corrinne May is a really really talented and gd singer! Her voice is just so powerful and soothing. She's so pretty too! She sang all the new songs in her most recent album Crooked Lines. Though I wasnt really familiar with many of her songs, but I really enjoyed my time there and I soon found myself liking many of her songs(: Corrinne was quite cute and she has a sweet personality, once, she took out a camera and started taking photos of her audiences and throughout the whole performance, you can actually feel that she's really touched and grateful to all that had come to support her(:  My favourite part of the concert was when Corrinne tried to engage the audience to sing part of her chorus, all of us were seriously enjoying ourselves and clapping along! Its part of the song Just What I was Looking for, the Nah Nah Nah Nah~ part(:(: Moreover, there were fireworks, cos I think there was ndp rehearsal going on.. so we had beautiful music and awesome view! (:

After the concert, we went to explore the gardens by the bay. Oh how much I love the tall structures, it reminded me much Avatar! Parts of the place is really magical(: Do go there some time(: 
On my way home, a student I used to teach at Kumon siglap ran up to me to just say hi! It totally made my day(:

On the sidenote, I just found out that Jason chen studied Economics too in UCLA! So cool! I never thought my favourite singer would like Econs too!:D I'm a happy girl~ Yes, go ahead and lol at me:P But i seriously was smiling to myself when i found out:P

And this was my favourite Corrinne May song I was telling u all abt! Besides, beautiful life.. so yeaps.. enjoy(: Its really catchy, I like! (:


I’ve been beaten down
I’ve been left for dead
Had my heart trampled
My soul bled
I have sworn I’d never do it again for love

I believe romance is innocence
I believe in the power of abstinence
I’m afraid I just don’t have the strength for love

Give me a sign
This is where I’m meant to be
This is where I belong
Could it be time
To seize the opportunity
Could it be
You were just what I was looking for

Am I mistaken or is that a gleam in your eye
The mystique of wondering what we’ll find
When we risk it all just to collide for love

You were looking ahead
I was looking back
Didn’t know we were both on that one-way track
Oh the sigh of relief to run to the arms of love.

Give me a sign
This is where I’m meant to be
This is where I belong
Could it be time
To seize the opportunity
Could it be
You were just what I was looking for

Nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah

I can’t believe I ‘ve waited so long
To say I love you in the words of a love song
No matter where this road will lead us
Hold my hand, till the end
It’s you that I adore.

Nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
You were just what I was looking for.
