Freaking Streamyx!

Two damn weeks. That’s how long the streamyx in my house has been down. We’ve been calling them everyday for the past 2 weeks and yet it took them so long to fix a technical problem. So inefficient! Imagine 2 weeks without internet connection!!!
No Msn, no Dota, no access to outside work (it’s holiday now)!! No life!

I hate streamyx.
I HATE TM NET!!

Sun Burnt!

NEVER forget to put on sun block
Read: NEVER

That’s one thing I learnt from the trip to Port Dickson. Although we (there were 22 of us from the Form 6 Society) were only there for 2 days but the extent of our sun burn was as if we were there for years! Really, I’m not exaggerating at all. Just take a look at my face and you’ll know. It’s red like roasted pig! When you have pig, it’s cute but when you have a roasted pig, well….it’s roasted, it won’t look nice! (But it would taste delicious though…teehee...)
It was my entire fault for being lazy to put on sun block and thinking ‘Nah, It won’t be that bad’. But it was really that bad. The sun was exactly on top of our heads and it was >37°C.
*I bet you people are saying ‘Serve you right!’

But the trip was worth it. Mainly because everything was free and we didn’t even have to pay for our own food! It was fully paid by the Society (yea, I know, damn rich, isn’t it?!)
We really honestly had fun. Everybody was in that ‘holiday mood’, we were so crazy, especially the guys. They were monster eaters. Yeah, what else can u call a bunch of guys (12 of them) who can eat 400 satay sticks, barbequed chickens, ketupat, and meatballs in less than 1 hour? Monstrous act!!! AND they were not any kind of monster but monster-sakai-water. Sakai-water as in they’ve never seen water before! Imagine, swimming in the morning, then afternoon and then gets up in the middle of the night to swim again! Oh yeah, they went to the beach in the evening as well. We, girls were like ‘Where do they come from again? From the deep forest?’
Weird fellas!

Then at night, while some of the guys were asleep, one guy went to brush his teeth and spitted out his salivary toothpaste onto their sleeping friend’s faces!! But only one guy did that special ‘salivary toothpaste’. The others were saner; they used just toothpaste to paint on their friend’s faces. But it was equally disgusting.

We talked and crapped a lot! But the talks were fun and genuine.
On the whole, it was fun ONLY IF it’s a short trip. There wasn’t anything much to do in PD except playing in the beach. By the third day, you’ll probably run out of things to do.
As for the pictures of the trip, I’ll post it as soon as someone uploads it on friendster (then, I can grab it!)

Sick, Tired and feeling like a loser.

Yeah, that says it all.
Sick because of flu, fever and headache * you might ask me what on earth am I doing here? I should get some sleep!* Well, I’ve slept for more than 12 hours and I’m feeling even worse now!

Tired because, well, I am sick! It’s ironic. The more I sleep, the more tired I’ve become.

Feeling like a loser? It’s because I can’t do anything beneficial at the moment. All I’m doing is sleep, eat, rest and the same cycle again. And I hate it because it’s holiday!! I hate being sick during holidays! It means no more vacation, no more shopping and no more fun!!

And I feel inferior. In spite of my sickness, I went to ACS, Klang IU day and it was very well done. What I am unhappy about is that the Rotarians keep on praising other schools (especially ACS) about how good they are etc and it makes me even sicker! The fact is that well, okay, they are good but hey, we were as good as them during our IU day but heck, the one-sided Rotarians didn’t even bother spending more time during our IU day. They LEFT just about 1 hour into our IU day to attend some loser’s school’s unimportant and dumb Idol Day. I’ve got to admit that ACS did a good job but I was so gloomy (blame it on the fever!) throughout the whole event. The president of ACS was (from my observation) kinda pissed with my unwillingness to go up stage and accept the souvenirs. Instead, I sent my vice president to go up. And I didn’t even bother to explain to him. What the hell, as if I’m obliged to listen to what the ass he said. The crowd was impressive, the hall was over-packed but they were like some kind of underage junk kids trying to rap and beat box etc. but failed miserably. The performers were great, though.

There, that’s my explanation for being so sober and impolite.

It's over!

It's over!
Yes. It’s over. I.u day is finally over! We had it yesterday, 25th March.
I’m so relieved that it’s finally done. Well, it wasn’t the best I’ve seen but it was certainly a blast!

Although not many turned up but those who came really enjoyed it, all thanks to the wonderful interactors who really pumped up the event with their silly jokes and fun attitude. In fact, the crowd that came was less than what we expected but that doesn’t dampen our spirit. Perhaps the reason for the small turnout was because too many events were held that day in other schools. Some schools had their sports day, some had IU Day, some are having district meetings, school projects etc.

Preparation

The hardest part was the preparation part. We stayed in school from 1pm to 11 pm to settle everything, plus the time spent in class, overall, we stayed in school for 17 hours. Yup, all of us smell like urgh. We had to work non-stop until late evening, 11.30 pm to finish up the backdrop etc. By the time I reached home, it was already 12 am (luckily, my mum slept earlier than that, or else….). I have to admit, many things were done last minute and we were rushing like hell. We did the backdrop, booklets, and cleaning up only a day before the Iu day. So, yeah, just imagined how rushed we were. You might say it was lack of time management but there were tons of problems even before we manage to plan anything. Our previous i.u director quitted last minute (a month or so before the i.u day), no one wants to be responsible for being the chairperson, financial status was so terrible, lack of members and time, u name it. All that happened in a month before the Iu day! I wanted so much to cancel it but after much thinking, I decided we must do it to prove our capability as seniors (all interact presidents in klang are form 5 students). Call it kiasu, I decided to have it despite the protest from my committee members.

In the end, our vice-president stepped up and took the chairman’s role. Organisation was a mess but what the heck; we had fun doing the work. Last week was the most stressful week ever in my life, I almost broke down and gave up but somehow I managed to pull it off.


The day itself
All of us came back to school early in the morning at 5am to arrange the chairs and some last minute preparation. Up until 8am, some of us were still in their t-shirts (supposedly uniform) running around, getting things done (the event starts at 8.30 with the guests coming in at 8).
And when the Rotarians came at 8.15, we were panicking because there were only less than 10 people who came at that moment. Mind you, the Rotarians are extremely particular about punctuality. When u say it starts at 8.30, u must starts at 8.30 even though the VIPs have not arrived. That’s how punctual they are. When the first performance was performing, the guests were still registering.

It was kind of messy, the emcees where making lots of mistakes due to last minute changes in the agenda but they were brilliant for getting the crowd excited. The refreshments were delayed and we had to slot in an ‘interacting time’ to keep the crowd busy while we settled the refreshments. Then, the games was a complete mess, the game master was so terrible in explaining that even I did not understand him, but nonetheless, thank god for the supportive crowd, everyone got up and played the games. The performances and registration were very brilliantly done, especially the performances. The crowd really loved them because they were so funny.

All in all, although it was a bit messy, we really, really had so much fun and I got to say that the form 3 members were the best! They stayed with us to cleaned up when most of the committee left, they got up and took part in them games to encourage the crowd to play, they entertained the crowd and best part of all, they did not complain (although some did because they were too tired). I have to say, I am very proud of them.

SO, now that it’s finally over, I better concentrate on my studies. Heck I only have 8 months to prepare for Stpm!
