I guess it would be a lie to say I've had nothing to write about in my blog. I guess the fact was that I'm lazy. Or that no one else was updating their blogs or those who do just locked them. Whats the point of a locked blog? Seriously. Locked blogs came out years ago, in paper form. Its like putting tape on your mouth and holding up a sign that says "I HAVE A SECRET".
I'm ranting again.
Well. Its been some time since APs. And SATs, and all the fun after-APs stuff. So first things first, yay! I got pretty good marks for everything and can safely say I won't ever have to take them again. After APs activities were pretty fun too!
I will be going through everything I did from APs to now.
Universal Studios with 403! Most fun I've had in a long long while. My extreme phobia of roller coasters really did get to me that day. I have no idea why people think roller coasters are fun. The human body was not meant to be accelerated and hung upside down, and my body was certainly protesting the very thought of going up in one. In the end, peer pressure won the day. Everyone in 403 were extremely thoughtful and encouraging, helping me stumble the deserted line to the Battlestar Galactica. In the end, I took the Human roller coaster, but was too freaked out to do the Cyclon side. One day, I swear. XD Besides all that, USS is a great place, and sentosa was really gone upmarket since the old days. It feels like Orlando or Cali now, you literally feel like you've left Singapore.
Rachel and Bernard's Birthday! An awesome time was had by everyone. Felt like a family gathering more than anything. We had a BBQ, had lots of wine, guitar playing in the cool night under the stars. I distinctly remember wishing it could last forever. 403 is awesome.
NEW YORK. GREATEST CITY ON EARTH. Check my Fb for photos. I really want to study there :D Columbia University, Morning Heights, New York City, New York, USA.
Also popped over to Washington DC. My dad knew the place like a pro, having been there quite a few times, he took us to the places US diplomats entertained other countries' diplomats. Amazing food over there. Also, strangely enough, no traffic lights. Seriously. Check it out.
Back to more recent times, 605 BBQ!
Juin Bin's house is pretty cool. There's like pools everywhere :D Good for throwing people into. Ronald got a caterer to provide awesome awesome food. Lamb chops, salmon, otah, all that good stuff. Broke out the good stuff, raspberry vodka (Y) Strong, with a strange aftertaste. People says it tastes like cough syrup. But having never drank much cough syrup, it tasted perfectly fine to me. Brought Ming Yan's shot glass from New Zealand, thanks a lot MY! :D Had about 6 shots. Usually, the shot glass was filled, and after passing it around the group, only half came back, so I finished it. :D
NINJA! Thanks to PhillyD and JM's quick thinking, we played a new game, NINJA! Awesomely fun game haha. When played down to two people, really looks like an actual martial arts fight XD Played a card dare game and eventually ended up with everyone in the pool, soaking wet. Tried playing Ninja in the pool, but it degraded to splashing around and grabbing each other into the pool, and soaking everyone else. We went to the main pool and held hands and swam in a circle singing National Day songs, waking up the rest of the condo. Probably got Stomped by some auntie with too much time and an internet connection. The security guard came down and got us out, trouble with the po-po D: He was amazingly good at catching us running around everywhere XD Very hardworking. In the end, we played a few more games, changed in a storeroom adjacent to the room. Oh btw, some people are easily fooled by sneaky knocking, heh heh. Not gonna say who. We went up to JB's house, and met his dog, who was pretty loud. Ended up only drinking 1/4 of the bottle of vodka. Unsurprisingly, I drank the most. But went home with a nice buzz. Best 605 outing ever.
Listening to Fallout New Vegas Soundtrack now. I love 1930's Jazz. So smooth and soulful. I wish I could sing like that. Fallout makes the best soundtracks, cos you have to listen to the same 20 songs for about 12 hours of gameplay time.
Fast forward to today.
It was, unexpected, to say the least. And the least shall be said. Bad decisions were made. Just hope I don't bump into the aussies tmr. That would be awkward.
College Apps taking up most of my time now. Admin crap is soul sucking. No idea how the college councillors take it. Now I'm stuck between whether I should Early Decision Columbia Engineering or Northwestern Engineering. Or UIUC. Bleh. Shan't talk about it.
So that's it. I'll try to post more frequently, to get the ball rolling again.
