YES INDEED! With the help of Adi and Su Yuen, our FWOC team is determined to maintain regulary our website, so just check it out for fun or whatever hahahas. I'm having a great time starting it up, it's pretty bare right now, but trust me, it won't be much longer before it roars to life!
Anyways, we painted till like 5.30am last night, and we dragged ourselves out of bed to head to CCK to help Flag with their recycling drive. Tired as we were, I'm just glad that we pulled through without much complaint, and actually had a few good laughs along the way (: But I came home and crashed for 5 hours hahaha.
I can't say in words how much I love being around the fwocers...they're like family (:
And I'm finally home after 2 weeks, which says alot about the commitment level that fwoc demands, but I don't regret it at all, not one bit. LOVES IT.

This year's Councillor's Camp (aka SWOC/Senior's Camp) had so many learning points especially for FWOC, so I'm really excited and pumped up now for the race to the finish!
The FWOCers just came back from a 3D2N chalet stay at Downtown East, and it was pretty chill and happy (: (:
Time to get back to workkk!

ZOMG so many of Jon's platoon people are sick, with 1 confirmed H1N1! With luck, he'll be fine though. He'd better be!
Councillor's Camp is coming right up! Looking good on paper, but hopefully it'll be smooth on the day itself. Exciting things!
It's the final stretch for us FWOCers. We've been through 7 weeks of planning, saikang-ing and all, and in 3 weeks, there's no doubt that we'll be ready to put on the best show EVER! :D

I admire those Protestants who really have God in every aspect of their life. It's something I can learn from them. I guess I don't have to be so explicit about it, but of course, I should be conscious. I'm not superhuman, I can't do everything on my own, 12 people can't make miracles. But with faith, and God's grace, we can. (:
GO FWOCERS!
It's a new week, and a chance to revive ourselves and keep going!
NUEVA VIDA!

Daddy's treat for dinner at 3 Monkeys was AWESOME!!! Went there with Milli and Iddie, and had really great food (: They came over to hall after that, and FOLDED MY CLOTHES hahahaha. I guess only I'm able to live in such messy conditions :P

I was really happy to be able to meet Jon for dinner last night and get away from the madness of FWOC. The inefficiency and ALOT OF BACKGROUND NOISE is damn not conducive for getting work done, especially the planning stuff. BLAH. Wish things could be done faster, less procrastination, more sleep for all. Once again, I really strongly believe it is NOT COOL to survive on 5 hours of sleep every single fucking day.

Chris Brown was the name of my BloodGroup. (: And gosh did we have so much fun together the past 3 days! At the end, when we finally went our separate ways after lunch yesterday, I felt slightly lost. The freshman campers were such a sweet bunch of people, as well as my awesomely supportive facils (: Altogether, everyone made the the camp a ROARING success and my job as a BGL that much less painful.
Of course, the endless outpouring of energy coupled with lack of sleep made me pretty much a zombie last night and most of today! Hahas. But wow. Of course, CBB wasn't my first attempt at facilitating camps, but it was by far the most stressful, with ex-FWOCers an JCRC members spying 24/7. I really learnt alot about myself these few days, and I'm really grateful for the experience.
And when I say that my freshies are really sweet, I have proof! This is what made me cry during their performance at Friday's bbq, when Mathew played the guitar and the rest of them sang a re-worded version of 'Hey There Delilah':
Hey there Amanda
What's it like in university
We're a thousand miles apart
But girl tonight you look so pretty, yes you do.
Kent Ridge shines just as bright as you.
We swear it's true.
Hey there Amanda
Don't you worry about the distance
We'll be joining you real soon
So give this song another listen, close your eyes
Listen to my voice it's my disguise
I'm by your side
{oh it's what you do to me...}
Hey there Amanda
We're so thankful that you're with us
Along with Joe, Brian, Kevin, Grace, Britney
Xuenie, Wee Ping, Joan, Yeng Ling and Ben.
We'll like to say thank you again, once more again
Hey there Amanda
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you would take your breath away
I'll write it all.
Even more in love with us you'd fall and Kent Ridge Hall
Sigh. We need a group outing already!

Camp Blueblood is finally upon us. The first test for us FWOCers! Well, 8 out of 12 at least. It's nervewracking, but I'm definitely excited as well. Here we go!
It's been one year since I first set foot in KR, met KR seniors and fell in love with the place. Become an SP game legend as well, no less :P I can only hope that the freshies coming tomorrow to camp with us will be able to experience the crazy KR life and somehow love it too! Then we will know that we have suceeded (:

Aca prac (: Always makes me happy!
Results day. Super sian. Now the long climb back up begins.
No, I will not blame it on the packed hall life. Others can do it, because they're disciplined. So that's the key. Okay. All talk no action lehxz. Now must take action alr. I WILL (:
Trying not to be too down. Yes, my semester average may not be great, but still above average. My cumulative points aren't awesome, but it's not the end. I must just be grateful for the cushion that last sem's points gave me (: I will be positive!!!

In these 3 weeks that have flown by too quickly, I've found the most brotherly of brothers, and the most sisterly sistazz (: Love working with them all.
Had choir yesterday, practising for CBB item. The group is scarily small! Like 3 or 4 per section? At least the sops are blending not too badly. I hope on the day, I don't lose my voice from being a BGL, and we'll be gooood!
Aca De Yuko prac tomorrow, but with different people! With Esther, Vernon and Allen (: Can't wait to hear how it'll turn out!!
Bryan and I just traced out 8 carousel horses. My shoulder and forearm are aching SO BAD.

I think I'm learning alot, I'm not who I think I am, but with the great people around me, I can be who I want to be by the end of the FWOC journey. It's not impossible, I realise, to be able to lose my shell and address a crowd. I can grow.
And you. What are you doinggg. Sigh.
And Jon. WHEE. I love you. Totally random. But just feeling all ~squee. (:
Painting decor stuff got us all damn giggly high yesterday! Teehee. Everyday's a new day, new challenges, and for what it's worth, I'm lovin' it!

It's not fun to sleep at 4am and wake up at 8am almost every day, but the people you wake up to are worth the sleepy eyes and grumbles.
Stacy's 21st is up tonight, no idea what I'm going to wear, and feeling a little annoyed right now. Wish I had the munniez to buy something something fabulousss. And also a little gift.
I don't know why I feel so jaded. Maybe I should just go and hide somewhere before coming out to face the world again. Lately, I've just been feeling highly unattractive and inferior. I don't know why it bothers me, but it does. Call me materialistic, or missing the point completely, but for someone as insecure as I am, the slightest comment on my hair being out of place, being strange, not suiting me, my clothes not fitting right when I look in the mirror. It affects me very much. I know I know I'm stupid for letting it be so. But what can I do. I'm surrounded by highly successful people, whose accomplishments make my every achievement look insignificant. I'm surrounded by gorgeous friends, and I feel like an unworthy ugly duckling.
Oh well.
Sucks to be me.

Whee! Sent out my very first corporate email today, and it was such a good feeling to get the replies back from the companies (:
FWOC week 1 is almost over, but it's only just the beginning. Whoosh.
My achilles tendon's been killing me all week. AARRRGHH. Might go get it checked.
Wish my life was a little more exciting, but, sorry!

Byebye Squishy :( I was so sad to be the first to have to say goodbye to you. You really endeared yourself to me. Love you! Wish you only knew how much.
Moved into my D block room today. Gah. Thank God for Jon, who came to help me. FWOC's officially begun. Hoping for the best!

Tonight's my last night with Squishy. Got some precious photos and videos to remember him as a little kitten. (: He's really changed my perspective on cats, I guess they're not that bad afterall hahas. Sigh, from a helpless, squealing, scrawny baby to growing a head's length in 5 days and eating way too much than we have for him. So precious. I love you, I hope you'll alwas remember me Squishy. And all of us who tended to you when you were just a little baby. I hope Sylvester will do justice to a handsome thing like you. MWAH.
The cat cushion will always be missing something after tomorrow. You.
Tomorrow, I'll be saying bye to E304 forever as well. Hello, D block for 3 months. Bleah.

Came home to a cute little Squishy, who grew about 2cm since Tuesday! Wow! Had a very relaxing past few days in hall, and it's great just having my own time.
I'll miss you Squishy! You certainly do leave your mark on people, literally. Ouch!

Exams are over, and its ladies' night, but I decided to lie low and have time to myself...before FWOC madness begins. I really hope it will not turn out to be a mistake.
But here's what I found (: And it just made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :D
Isn't that sweet?
I know, I know, I'm blogging too much :P

There was NOT ENOUGH Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool) in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, so...
I'm rewatching as much as Two Guys, A Girl and a Pizza Place as possible! I remember me, Milli and Iddie eating microwaved lunches at 2.30pm after school, running back to turn the tv to Star World to catch it, and well, it was where we all first fell in love with the comedic awesomeness of said Mr Reynolds (:
WHEE!
