it was just the end of a not so busy week, and the start of a hellish week.

last sat the ajc alumni staged their concert, in ajc -_- not that I have anything against them holding in school, but the school auditorium doesnt seem to be a presentable place to hold a concert. I regret pon-ing most school events during my time in aj, after seeing those pictures of past ajc events. everything in aj seemed so fun to me now. I dont know why I didnt feel that way when I was in aj last time :( initially, I was just there to support sophia, and ajco, but after the concert, I realized maybe there's more to aj life compared to studies and co mans. :D

unfortunately, I was almost late for the fireworks performance coz of the concert. (was trying to leave nearing the end of the guitar performance) cityhall was so damn crowded that I was drenched in sweat from head to toe w/o moving much -_- I made a huge mistake by thinking that the police blocked off the esplanade, so that the ticket holders can enter only. in the end, i chionged out of the underpass leading to esplanade, only to realize that there are more people outside instead -_- on the other side, my parents were happily enjoying the fireworks, while I had to settle for a 'partial view'.

met up with the GSS peeps again on sun! due to several miscommunication problems, and the hectic school schedules of almost everyone in the group, (I just realized guan and I are the most free among all), the turnout was quite bad. still, at least xueping, champ and weng fei appeared after our invitation (guan and I threatened them more than we welcomed them I think :D)

we settled for the soup spoon in raffles city. I had heard yuqian's recommendation for that place but e ruaners didnt manage to go there the last time. as some of us might fondly remember, the soup spoon near raffles place was the place where this poor chef got stabbed sometime ago.

we had wanted to head home after dinner, but as it turns out... champ's craving for donuts led me to experience my 2 other 1st times last night! we walked all the way to suntec, where I tried a donut from the donut factory, and ben & jerry's ice cream for the first time! the donut seemed so precious in my hands as I thought of the countless singaporeans who braved the queues (some queued for 3 hrs or more?) just for the box of donuts.

after donuts and a walk in carrefour, we came to this nice fountain area where the science and engineering students were fascinated by the operations of the fountain.

We did not forget to pose near the fountain though. (anna went off with her bf beforehand)

I am seriously hoping that my badminton session this thurs will not be 'cancelled' due to some BH226 makeup lesson (thanks to union day) I will burn ntu for this. GRRRRR.
