Update

this post will cover 2 things
- EOTA
- Holidays

(Idea taken from Xuan Cheng a.k.a DarkDementor)

----EOTA----

EOTA was a success, though it was sometime back, my computer crashed because I deleted something from C: so Im using my sister's computer to blog now. Back to EOTA. Early in the morning (actually not very early) we left in a luxurious coach and headed towards the wonderful Kallang Water Sports Centre. The trip there took sometime time, and by the time we reached there, it is around 11am (If im not wrong of course). We had to wait for teh SJI people to clear off and finish with their prise giving session. Instead of just stoning around, we (sailor pnghy) managed to catch some games on taylor's mobile. Now it is time...

Excited as a brick, we queued up and realised that the boat can only take 20 people at the most. So Lester had to go to the other boat. Hmm.... Took our life jackets and the paddle. Then climbed in the boat. Then we're off!!!

Lalala. I must admit that my muscle ached so much within the first few minutes that I slacked a little =). Sat next to Taylor (he took the left side since he was a left hander). I remembered someone splashed water on everyone behind him, thought it was Jay. Well, we rowed on.

Row row row the boat. No, not down the stream. Its up (sigh). Halfway the instructors saw that we were generally scared that the boat was going to capsize that he decided to rock the boat. He assured us that the boat is not going to capsize and asked for someone to volunteer himself to test the lifejackets. lol. Jay volunteered (did he?).

Splash! Down Jay goes. The instuctors showed us how to assist someone to climb back into the boat. the method was qutie simple - just wait for him to hook his legs to the edge of the boat and then 2 people pull hard on the life jacket. In the end, we all jumped into the salty water. :S It was quite fun actually. Like a swimming pool, expect that it was much deeper and saltier. I floated around, waiting to be 'rescued' by someone on the boat. Ok, im quite heavy, but 2 people (i forgotten who) managed to pull me up.

There was a race between the 3 dragon boats and we won.

----Holidays----

The long awaited June holidays started badly. Found that I will be quite busy in the holidays, not enough time to do ACE, not enough time to study, not enough time to play, not enough time to slack, not enough time to go for EP3, not enough time to do almost anything....

On Friday I played pokemon crystal for about 6 hours till my computer went bonkers and crashed (unfortunately). So there was nothing else to do, just banging on the piano and going to sleep about 2 hours later. Saturday I woke up early and drummed on the piano, then ate lunch and went to my piano lesson, then bought some bread from Delifrance in NTUC in Coronation Plaza, then went to my grandmother's house. Sounds boring. I guess on Sunday i have to finish the zuo wen that I was supposed to hand in on Friday but didn't. Oh no...
