Seriously, i don't even know when is dumpling festival and only know bunch of wrapped glutinous rice placed on the dinning table tempting me to just eat them by the bunch. Argh.. Watch those calories!
Alright, I thought it was just a simple round trip up to eastern side to grandma's place to pick up some tasty dumplings for my family until I have been arrowed to make delivery runs to 2 other places and still have to make it home in time to change and head back to school. Oh well... after riding on cab for 45 mins and tens of dollar poorer, all dumplings are delivered. My cousins must have been stunned to see me on a weekday. haha!
Now i can't wait to savour those dumplings. Bedtime is just minutes away (wait! let me catch a few games from the french open first. lol!) and to consume it now would mean undoing all the effort spend on court for 3 hours of tennis in addition to extra hours of training.

F.L.O.W.E.R
All you need is to open your eyes and see what nature has to offer. A old picture taken somewhere at the gates of Botanical Gardens but somehow left un-edited and chuck away in a corner of my hard disk.

The End
The final week in camp couldn't end off any better! Medical check was swift this time round, in and out of the doctor's room within 90 seconds. amazing! compared to last time when i have to return back to the medical center 3 days in a row just to get the medical cert. =D
Helped out with some NDP stuffs since i have nothing for the day. First half of the day was just supervising work ensuring rehearsal ground is properly marked out. It just don on to me then the scale behind the scene work required to pull of such a show annually. All i can say now is there is many rehearsal ground which requires the same exact markings. Ouch to those who have been painstakingly marking them.
Spend some time with one of the performing schools to do support. It never easy wearing uniform and leading a big bunch of sec 1 kids, guiding them through the choreography, assisting the choreographer. A good test of one's patience not to yell and scold them for the good reason that i am just a uniformed personnel. Of course young kids being so ignorant, called us NCC cadets. Ouch! Never felt so insulted before. Oh well.... Kids.. =)
It all ended with a good round of board and card games with a bunch of guys called the Pink Panther Force (PPF for short) don't ask me why they are called that. All the jokes and quirky ideas from them really made the day shorter and less painful to pass. Great company.
Well now the pink card is rightfully mine, 2 years of liability dutifully served. Another chapter has closed with a new one waiting to be written. Lots of memories and experiences, the good ones will be retained and the bad ones well... let it serve as a good reminder of why things should never turn out this way again. Can't wait for the time again when its time for my section to once again head out into the fields and fight another day. =) ORD!

mundane monday
Dark clouds, never ending rain, a short trip back to school to pick up a file and walking around aimlessly around central area. It drizzled while i drift around but heck the rain drops trickle down on me. Oh what else can a bored person do on a boring day. Only a short burst of panic from a missed call of an awfully familiar number. A number that can't be called back. Only to find out that its the camp admin people giving me a gentle reminder to settle some administrative stuffs. Phew..
Okay, seriously, the rain is cooling down the weather but its disrupting my running plans, my tennis plans. imagine all the outdoor stuffs i could do without the rain. but sometimes would love to get drench.
Can't wait for Friday to come. Once and for all, I am done with what i am suppose to commit. I am done with the place which i called home for the a year plus. Filled with lots of memories, lots of experience. Do it once never twice. But with a blink of an eye turned into something that is totally unfamiliar with, the people, the management. =( Well, only consolation will be to have a fellow friend where we aim to slack like never before. =D.
friday... fridaY.. fridAY.. friDAY.. frIDAY.. fRIDAY.. FRIDAY!!!

Name Tent
I must have been seriously bored at home over the weekend to do something like this. Limited type of instrument for the the brush design but at least there is FRENCH HORN and PIANO! =) University and School name goes in line with the corporate image as stipulated by the school right down to the font type and color.
Trying to go for a renaissance design but don't know if i have achieve that yet. And the border still doesn't feel right. Haiz... Inspire me please. Might remove the border design on one side. This is going to be a two-sided name tent by the way, so can switch back and forth. Color choice limited. Black font against white background to make the name visible from far. Can't wait to see the final product. Getting it print and laminated soon!
Want to get yours personalized?
