I thought Darth Vader was bad enough. I thought Anakin Skywalker becoming a Sith was bad enough. Guess I was wrong... In this world, there are all sorts of people, good guys, bad guys, friends, hypocrites. If ya got something against me, tell me in my face, dun talk behind my back. Enough of back-stabbin, no more knifves and daggers, no more arrows, no more bullets, no more darts. Come clean, speak out, betray not thou conscience.
I've said enough.

So looooooong nva blogged liao... So many things to say... So many things worth remembering... All the fun, laughter, and joy... Dunnoe where to start ar...
SL Camp 2006. RAPTORS was the name of my group. 90% of the pple in my grp were from HTM. Old bird SL joinin the camp for one last time. Had to leave for Hand-Sign "Go Temasek Go", in the end missed playing the game of Cluedo with my group. Haha...they actually used an episode of Conan The Detective as the murder mystery. New blood in the committee meant new implementations. The effort was seen, but not felt. I knew they had given their all. Hope things turn out better in the coming year.
The BIG FO is back... n' this time it's bigger than ever! FOW/FOC took a freakin' 6 days straight! Took every little bit of strength outta me. I learnt alot as a leader this time. First time felt not easy being pressured from both the upper and the lower levels. Sorrie for not meeting up to Sahf's standards in the beginning, but really got the hang of it end of day 2. The feedback session came more than a shock to me than anything else... Time for improvement.
Thought that I won't fall sick after 6 days of workshop n camp. True, I did not catch a cold...something worse came crashin my door. The doctor diagnosed me with feet rot. I became "lame" after SL Tea Party. No more hey billy banja for me... SL Tea Party was the only time I could stamp my feet for the ground-shaking cheer. This stupid condition oso deprived me of my chance in rowing for BSC in the TP Regatta. Still remembered the night we celebrated Kai Zhuan's bday, exchange of gifts as well as the legendary game of "OUCH" --> Handiplast!
Week Zero Orientation Day 1 was a let down in the BSG side. Too huge a group, too few SLs to liven up. Fresh faces in SL meant inexperience and uncertainty in many situations. Luckily, we worked together as one and put on a show on Day 2. Unlike last year, I had a partner, JK who worked with me to handle our class of 1B15. It really lightened my load abit, as one would always be ard in case the other had to go off. Really cheered out hearts out during the Tele-games. Really enjoyed myself too! The stupid leg condition did not affect me negatively at all. Final chance as an orientation helper, do it or die!!
Preparations for Yaoda's Great B21 was on the way after Week Zero. The venue was decided, but alot left unsettled. Frantically finding this and that. Fortunately, the jigsaw was pieced together towards mid-week, from the deco to the cake to the invitations.
27th April 2006: Checked-in at Aranda Country Club to my E-suite. Really had to thank my dear bro hanwoooooooooiii for accompanying my during the first night.
28th April 2006 (Yaoda's Great 21st Birthday Bash): Breakfast at Downtown East with hw. We ate quite alot, laksa, prata, indian rojak... The next few hours were spent pumping balloons. He had been a GREAT HELP for making many things possible at the chalet. My first surprise came when the 1st batch of guests turned up at my door. The four of them sang me a bday song that I can never forget. I was really touched, I soompa! No names, just initials, R, L, K ,B.
By 7pm, there was oredi a crowd at the place. So happy with the turn-up. Further entertainment was brought when the PS2 arrived. Winning-Eleven. Cake-cutting was long, vvv. long. Ta Ta Ko Ah Ta Ta Ko...Year 1s, Year 2s, Year 3s, Graduates, Graduateds, TPSU, FOC, SLs, Guys, Girls. Log Comm, FoodMin, Prog, Freshies. Tat came after the cake-cutting, but he soon started his engine, n' dowsed me with whiskey-mized-cola until my head was spinning. A pity my head was really spinning, if not I would ton the nite away with the stayovers. Missed a night of fun, joy n laughter because of a few hours of sleep.
I would like to EXPRESS MY THANKS to EVERYONE who came for my party. You guys MADE THE DIFFERENCE. To the GRADUATE GUYS, all the best for NS. To the GRADUATE GIRLS, all the best in your future endeavours. To the Freshies, make your 3 years in TP a memorable stay. To the Year 2s, keep on moving. To the Year 3s, all the best to ur SIP, Tolerance is the key to success.
