BMTC visit

Didnt blog yesterday bcos I had lots of HW and Iwas very tired after the BMTC visit.

Yesterday, school ended at 11am for those going for BMTC trip, ended up, missing Chem lecture. Took an hour bus-ride before boarding the boat that took us to Pulau Tekong, a place that every S'pore males will be in after their 18th birthday. Actually, I already saw some of the things back at the Temasek Sem. like the M-16 rifle, obstacle course and face painting for camouflage. Participating schools were MJC, RJC, SAJC, SRJC and TJC.

New things were the simulation centre for recruits to train their shooting skills. The whole room is so high tech, like an arcade centre, and I managed to try the the simuklation hands-on. One word: cool. That was the only good part i can remember. Then, we visited the other stations before goingg to the recruits' bunk. As expected, abt 10 person per room. There is also the annex where recruits can relax during free time. Inside, there TV, football game table, ping-pong table and 2 pool tables with mismatched sofas and chairs around. Then, we were given a short talk on the equipments given on first day in the backpack. One thing I didnt know is that there was a pair of sports shoes inside the backpack.

Before leaving, there were refreshments for us and I saw Davidson and Zhen Cheng from 403'05 , again SJI pple. Somehow, I keep meeting SJI pple during these events... The boat was very shaky, moving in SHM, bobbing left and right, someone nearly fell down in the boat, even I was feeling a bit giddy after the ride. the last time I took a boat to batam for an hour, i didnt even fell a single bit of giddiness, and this time it was only a 10min ride...

Today, it was a sucky day if u want to call it that way. One of my PW group member was behaving in that queen-like mannner again. Borrowing a chinese dictionary from u sounds more like ORDERing u to give it to her, whiny about every little thing, and give u that baka-tic black face when u try to talk to her. Then when she needs my help on maths and stuff, she'll will feign innocent and come asking u "How to do this qn ah?". Also, there are some scholars in my class who are totally insensitive and do not understand the meaning of "shi ke er zhi" and continue to talk senselessly.

If this continues for another few months, im afraid that that i might have a mental breakdown during promos, which is the last thing i want. For me, i can afford not to study few days b4 exam but i cannot be in a bad mood, else i'll miscalculate, read Q wrongly and make other stupid mistakes like that. Which is why i always try to play all day on exam-eve, for mental maintenance.

Another thing, if friends are going to ignore me when i ask them for help, do NOT expect me to help when they ask for it. In contrary to people who blog out of leisure, i blog out of frustration usually.

In summary, I'm not in the best of my mood today.
