Last night was a emotional night, I just let it all out about what I really feel. I’d still keep part of it to myself and those who know but it strikes me again today, that feeling.
I looked at my MSN contact list and I questioned myself, is there anybody I can find in there that I could tell how my camp has been, everything that I wanted to share? No
I never know what they really think, or feel, cause they would just lie or excuse themselves away when questions are given to them by me. Everybody just wants the truth from me, but so what if I told them, do they even care or are they just interested in solving mysteries? Personally, I just think that they treat me as their boredom-killer.
They can say a whole load of stuffs, I listened to them, but my worries and concerns are always missed out. 30,50 minutes of ranting and I’d still be listening, even if they are telling me on MSN during 2am or so which my dad set a rule for me to sleep at 12, I broke the rule just to listen to them.
But what, every 2 sentences I tell them, they wouldn’t care. They just go on with another topic or tell their own stories. I still listen, why, I can’t understand. This feeling of sadness never struck me until yesterday when I let it all out, only to realise I never really had one person I could trust in my class.
I’m very grateful to those who listened to my whole load of emotional craps and rants, even though I knew them for about 3 days, they would… listen.
Really really disappointed with my friends, esp. those who taken me for granted which is a majority… really. If you think I never really cared about what you said from your heart, I really don’t know what to say… cause you never really notice how precious you all are to me. It’s going 3 years… I guess all the relations I built up in these 3 years, are wasted and wrong.

If anybody at final briefing today (for the camp) said they want Pink for the GoR Blog, I think my blog design is pink enough already huh?
At 9.30PM, SL called me up and told me I’m involved in a camp, which I am totally clueless about. My typical reaction, flare up with a laughter cause it was a last minute thing and it’s near the end of the holiday. After much trash-talking just to keep myself entertained (?), I put down the phone and made my decision to go, even though I’m still a little fed-up. Reason? I just felt that since I’m selected to go, I should go.
I didn’t want to bring my iPod Video along, so I packed 14 songs into my 64MB MMC card on my handphone. The sound quality really freaked me out but well, that’s the price I have to pay to keep my iPod unscratched.
When I reached there (Block 148, the location), I was unsure where should I head to. I turned and saw a funeral going on. Is this some kind of prank? That was what I thought until a guy walked out of a centre and then asked if I’m involved in the GoF camp. He then asked me to enter and great, I’m suprised to find nobody from my school.
Soon, that guy and me had a conversation that lasted quite some time, and then I knew his name was Branden. SL would later come at around 6PM, Aidah came the next morning, while Andy could not attend due to the school camp (which I think is pretty useless for him to be there). Most Irresponsible - Pei Xuan, not informing Victor that she’s not coming or anything, but told SL that she would come for 1 day. Liar, irresponsible, what more can I say? Much more.
I’m not going to start ranting, but get back to the camp. We split into 2 groups, then we had to think of a storyline’s beginning. All sorts of crazy ideas, but it seem to involve Snow white and the 7 dwarves more than anything else. Our story eventually ended up with something like this.
Cinderella & the frog prince. When the clock strikes 12, the prince would become frog again, and Cinderella would be back to her old self. It picks up where Cinderella & the prince were dancing in the castle, then the frog prince had to kiss her exactly at 12 midnight so that she would become a frog too. However, just as they kissed when the clock strikes 12, nothing happened because it’s actually 23.59… the clock went something wrong 
We then acted that out and it’s quite funny, and somehow I’m the frog prince (weird). The horses became hamsters were very hilarious, as potrayed by the 2 actors. After a break, Joan, a freelance storyteller came to show us how to be dramatic when reading stories. She’s damn good, being able to help everyone of us to explore more ways to tell a story. We did some strange face exercises then split into groups.
I was in the same group as Melissa and Michelle, 3 of us, while others had 4 in their group. Lucky? Unlucky? Unsure, because we’re short of 1 person but we manage to make it through. Each group received 1 book, of different contents. My group got “The very ugly bug”… actually the bug was quite cute.
When the presentation started, everybody’s performance was pretty average, until the 2nd presentation which everybody improved a lot. Yi Da’s group was the most outstanding in my opinion.
We had 2 games later in the night which was extremely fun, as Branden had a million strategies for one simple thing. We were lined up in a row, 2 groups and held hand in hand. The first person needs to pass down the number given by the facilitator, but we can’t talk or anything except squeezing of hand. Eventually our group won because of Branden’s strategies (?)…
The other game was to lead your parter who’s blindfolded along the route… I kept crashing into XinYi who’s infront of me, because of our walking speed perhaps. My partner was a little scared though, just touched by a plant could make her shout. ~cool.
After all these, we waited for our chances to shower because there are only 3 batheroom slots. Poker cards were what that kept a few of us through the night. This and that, it’s finally bedtime and sleeping bags were allover. Cockroaches made the night more lifely, but sleeping under the air-conditioner certainly kept my shivering.

????? - My Story (DVD+CD)
BoA - Best of Soul (DVD+CD)
Bought both of them at Raffles City Gram0phone today, $7.95GSD each. In case you’re wondering, it’s 2nd hand but There ain’t scratches, broken pages, penknife markings, holes or any sort of damages to them.
The CD&DVD for each really made $7.95SGD each worth, and I love the person who sold away these albums.

After one day of draft and 2 days of work/planning, I finally got this wallpaper done. My initial plan was entirely different from what you would see, and I actually had only Ayumi in mind for the wallpaper.
