i am super exhausted now. spent a good saturday training to become a rag and bone woman. sigh.
woke up early at 730 this morning, dragged myself out of bed and headed down to school. i was late, but considering that at the time i reached school at 840( we were supposed to meet at 830). zhouhao smsed me and told me he just woke up and he was going to be late. hahahaha.
anyway, we stoned at lt 2 until about 930 coz they had to settle admin stuff. then zhouhao came at 910 and looked like an ex-convict. oops! no lah, just that he looked quite dazed.
so the day started as hci flooded bishan.
i was in jiashee's group with lingyee. yifang went off to join her other friends in another group and zhouhao was assigned to the loaders and containers group. throughout the week, he had been gloating about his 'fortune' coz he thought he could simply hide in the shade and listen to this mp3 player while accumlating cip hours. apparently, he thought that all he had to do was to stay stationary at the truck and just throw newspapers into it. it was half true. but the thing is, his job was not slack at all coz he had to carry the whole block's newspaper collection into the truck. and it was A LOT of newspapers. just one block and you can die carrying it. i almost laughed my head off when i saw what he had to do.
anyway, we were assigned to the older blocks, so there weren't lifts at every floor. i almost died. we had to do 10 blocks and it was terrible i tell you. simply terrible.
the first block was quite good coz our collection was very poor; we didn't know we were supposed to knock on doors so when we saw an empty corridor without newspapers, we just happily moved on. but luck did not stay coz then exco incharge told us we had to knock on doors. the second and third blocks were killers, murderers in disguise. the blocks were soooo lonnggg!! and the residents were super generous!! sick!! we had to carry stacks and stacks and stacks of newspapers from one floor to another. it was damn tiring. by the time we cleared these blocks, my hands and legs were wobbling. haha. but lingyee and i managed to convince ourselves that we were losing weight this way. haha. but i think i just gained the weight i lost after eating yakun bread just now -_- thick slices of melted butter. tsk tsk.
had lunch at j8 at yoshi. and then continued on our arduous task. the afternoon session wasn't that bad, we finished our first block in 20 mins. record time! haha. the subsequent blocks were quite small, so we finished quite early. but rejoice wasn't in sight coz we had to help another group do their block. sigh. and that block had A LOT OF NEWSPAPERS! there was this super enthu maid who gave us a tower of newspapers; it was a literal tower. then there was this other aunty who was even more enthu. she gave us newspapers, a pot, a standing lamp, a globe and a box of magazines. her unit wasn't on a lift floor!! so lingyee and i had a difficult time transporting all these stuff down.
we finished all our assigned blocks at 430. as we heaved a sigh of relief and flirted with the thought of returning home, they told us that there was a 80% chance that we had to go help out another group coz they had 3 blocks left. i almost cried. but thank goodness, lady luck was showed us mercy and we could go home. xP
i walked home from the dismissal block and reached home before 5. bathed and slept.
there is sentosa outing tomorrow with the class. i was quite excited about it the whole week, but now, somehow i feel quite sian. dunno why also. maybe coz i am not going to play bball, frisbee or vball? dunno lah.. i think i will bring some manga to read. anna says she might not go and kityeng has to leave at 6pm. i will be left alone. it's true that i can hang out with the guys, but aiya. see first lah. maybe i will leave at 6pm with kityeng.
kityeng and anna were supposed to come to my house for a sleepover tomorrow, but now i guess it's impossible. aiyaya.. and i went to ntuc just now to buy some chips and drinks. nvm lah. i guess in a way it's better. tmr will be a tiring day, so a good night's rest will be good. i think the guys are still having a sleepover, i wonder how it will be like without girls this time. i am quite sure villain will be devasted when he knows that none of the girls will be sleeping over. hahaha. i wonder whose house they will be bunking in tomorrow, or maybe they will just camp at the monorail station like what bean suggested. haha. good luck to them man! i bet they will be bitten by mosquitoes like mad. hahaha.
