12:57 PM

Finally got my laptop serviced and running! (: Here's an update of the week.

On Monday, I met up with Fran and Gill in town. Had brunch at Toast in a ulufied corner of Taka, which I had happened to know through Thrishna. Fran recomended the Chicken Caesar sandwich, so I had a go and it was really filliing in a good way. Plus it was quite cosy just sitting in the empty place (workday morning, obviously) and chitchatting. And it's sad to know racism still exists, even in the supposedly elite schools which churn out the bright sparks. Ain't that sad. If I were you dear, I'd totally let her know how I feel about it. Then Evelyn popped by so it was like mini sec 4/free period girls gathering. We walked to Taka basement and talked some more before we were craving ice cream so we went to Azabu Sabo Hokkaido ice cream! And sampled almost like the whole selection. They had this new flavour called Caramel and Sea Salt(together) which sounds totally funky, and Fran apparently fell in love with it after sampling. And I got Milk Tea, which was pretty good too. Then Gill, who still hasn't grown out of her Neo Prints phase, abosolutely insisted that we had to take photos for memory sake. So, we went over to Cine and posed like cute little kawaii neh girls in the booth (which due to technological progress had a MOVING platform and wind for hair effects). The wind effect didn't really work. Haha. Being the noobs that we were, we coudn't finish editing the photos on time so yeah that explains:

Lovely time spent with you freeperiodgirls! (: Still rmber the crazy stuff we did in the library at Thomson!

Friday was Council Formation for the 33rd. Good job to Joel Shan and Andrew who organised it(: Montage brought back alot of memories, and I think the sharing was quite funny too. Plus the affirmation totally screamed CA haha, but one could feel the council spirit (different from council ghost haha if ever there is one) while we were on each other's backs, penning stuff. Thank you 33rd, for being such an integral part of my life. Through all the saikang, planning, getting it approved, sorting out logisitics, ugly confrontations, emotional outbursts, conflict of ideas, warm affirmations of friendships, listening ears, laughing 5 inches off your waistlines, receding hairlines of certain teachers, and the shiok post-eventmoments, you guys are my everything. It's CA and council that is the highlight of every week -be it morning masses, refusing to budge out of the SCC after assembly, or just ROFLing around, I really enjoy coming to school because of you guys. It's been a memorable journey and I'm pretty sure all of us have grown in more ways than one. Teachers, thank you for you unwavering support and guidance, and tolerating all lame moments.

This really made me cry last night :/ But there was other stuff at home too that wasn't very nice, so yeah combined effects =major mood out plus fatigue. I know that I shouldn't be sad that it's over, but be glad that it happened. But it's very hard to let go of something you've gotten so close to. Not to mention that practically all my tight buddies in council are gonna leave Singapore upon graduation. (looks pointedly at certain individuals) I don't even want to think about year end, let alone council term ending ):

Whinewhinewhine, this is all I've been ever doing. Seriously, Jocelyn. Get a grip on yourself and stop being so pessimistic.

Today's CIP was slack, only washed clothes for like half an hour. Then all the residents were going off to the Singapore Flyer + volunteers cooking lunch = nothing to do. We ended up going to town at Shaws to eat brunch and have sarcastic rebuttals (very phallic in nature) before I left with Bigboss.

On a random note, I forgot to eat my tablets for 2 days already. Because I end up falling asleep or I am appalled by its very taste. People with good complexion are VEH lucky. I think I know more weird names of medicines to beat Offred at Scrabble la. Doxycycline. Differin. Dalacin. Yucks.

Oh no, GSS is ending and I haven't gone shopping yet ): Looking out for nice flats/sneakers and shorts. Heehee.
