batam pictures for you guys to download. they are compressed into 8 folders! plus one is for videos. this is easier than uploading to a online photo album where you would have to download one at a time...and you don't want to repeat that 400+ times! so praise me for my consideration (:

training was tiring today. from the accumulated exhaustion from YLTC and training and lack of sleep probably.well at least i'm gonna enjoy my weekend off in batam with WISHES! (:
kris came over to bake CORNFLAKE COOKIES, and in the end we ate quite a substantial amount of it. but there was also chocolate cornflakes ! wahahah. well we pigged out, and ate smores too! except that the last batch of smores we made went up in flames in the oven. literally.

haha. i forgot about the marshmallows in the oven till i smelt it. burning. i opened the oven door to find the top half in flames. and opening the door made the flames only bigger. well the house was filled with smoke for awhile, but it was an enriching experience. the pictures will explain it all. (kris took a video of us disecting burnt marshmallows too! )



don't they look like volcanic rock?



my rainbow cornflake cookies!


Remember: marshmallows are FLAMMABLE (:
sleep!

the end of YLTC. end of Os. end of most sec school proms. including crescent's.

YLTC was a great experience really. go COURAGE! well i really can say that i learnt things from this camp, about myself, and about others. we didn't win the overall prize (3 bottles of 100 plus), but we did win one event - the outdoor cooking. and i would say that i didnt do much. as in didn't contribute much to the thinking/planning process nor the assembling of it. i just cooked, or turn on the fire for them to cook. and i did doubt their idea which took so much time and effort. so, overall i'm glad we managed to clinch those points.

There was the flag and points sytem, morning PT, land expedition to pulau ubin, sea expidition from changi to east coast (kayaking), improvised rafting, dragon boating, outdoor cooking, station games, and least but not lear, the FINAL CHALLENGE.

crazy i tell you, walking back from NTU to NJC, starting at 5am a tthe morning.we walked pretty fast (jogged mostly towards the end), took breaks, which included one at the coffeeshop, and made it back within 5 hours.a big accomplishment to me, and i can say that i enjoyed the walk (: but i still don't understand how the other teams could have walked back so fast even if the distance was shorter.

busy busy. with no idea what. ok maybe some idea....manga. and hockey.
that's why i can't believe i missed halloween. i was aware that 31st was approaching, the night before i remembered that it was halloween, but once i fell asleep, the thought of halloween disappeared, for 24 hours. today i woke up, 1st Nov. and HALLOWEEN's OVER.
i didn't go trick or treating, i didn't wish anyone happy halloween, neither did i attempt to celebrate a special holiday. i guess the only difference i did was to eat ice cream at one in the morning, but by then halloween was over already! sighhss.
