The only thing that got me really frustrated was the placing of the ad in the sidebar. For some strange reason, whenever i previewed the template, everything was overlapped. Owing it to my persistent nature, i tried doing and re-doing the template for more than an hour last night. To no avail, the preview kept on showing the overlapped images. FRUSTRATING.
so today, i tried again. even asked loki for help. but still the same thing. but due to his persuasion, i decided to just save the template and view it.
GUESS WHAT.
like omg. when i saved it, the final outcome was totally different from the preview!!! it wasn't overlapping and everything was in place. *thank you!!*
wa lao eh.
waste my time sia.
STUPID PREVIEW.
btw. view my blog in internet explorer! JANICE POH keeps debating that firefox is more widely used than internet explorer. I disagree. I USE INTERNET EXPLORER. or am i the only mountain turtle around here?!?
next
so jan, ang pao, nic and i went fishing yesterday. PROUD TO SAY I CAUGHT ONE FISH. haha. okay, actually not really.
the story is. I CAST THE ROD. and happily went off to eat some chips. before i know it, i see ang pao running from one side of the pier all the way to the other side where my rod is. And he started fighting and reeling in the fish!! HAHA. so in actuality, he caught the fish.
BUT HEY.
it was my rod. and i cast it. just that i wasn't paying attention. because i was eating. HAHAHA.
yes, i noe, spastic.
BUT HEY. it was like freaking early, and we had to walk SO FAR to get to our destination. so u really can't blame us.
we walked past this sign and jan got all crappy "lets go to the cafe to drink SEA water!"
and then, we walked out and realized from that "cafe" u could see the sea.. and jan went "OHHHHHHH, so thats why its called see water"
-.-
HAF YOU BEEN TO MY CLINIC? i'm a family person man.
so we're finally reaching our fishing destination
say hi to my un-fixed rod.
THANK GOD FOR ANG PAO. who graciously helped me to fix it and put the string and hooks and what-nots.
Meet the men in action!!!
thank God for the chips and junk food. or i would haf died. PS: the bread wasn't for us. ang pao brought it for the fish>lol.
janice and nic. shes staring at the live prawns, he's staring at her. OOOOPS... i mean. he's setting up his rod. =P
LOOK AT THE PRAWNS.
ang pao picking out his prawns for bait.
the sadistic nature of fishermen revealed!! for your information, its nicholas and not weijie whos spearing the LIVE prawn......!!!
well, i had to hook the prawn myself too. at first, i din dare, but after a while.... its kinda addictive.! LOL.
poor prawn. but thank God, they dun bleed.
HI NICHOLAS. you sadistic human!
SOooooooo. the guys brought boxes and so did i. but the thing that differed was the contents.
the guys had fishing weights, hooks and all kids of fishing stuff...
AND ME.... ?
what did i haf??
HAHHA..... check it out for urself...
yes... i brought nail polish and nail art gadgets and
everything one might need for a manicure. eh please lo, it wasn't for myself. it was for JANICE! :P
yes. we were bored. it had been 2 hrs and we hadn't caught anythg. seriously. we look spastic. janice is so gonna kill me when she sees these pics. HAHA.
bury me please. oh wait, i want to be burnt and thrown into the dead sea. where i'll stay dead. -.-
boys still gg on strong
aft two hrs.. we finally caught this fish!!!! BIG RIGHT. and the hook v zhun man. hook the mouth so accurately . GOOD JOB ANG PAO!
look at him. so happy.
yes. i look spastically crazy here. I WAS FORCED TO TAKE A PIC WITH THE FISH. it was so big and icky. YUCK. thats why i look freaked out. LOL.
okay. i've calmed down in this pic. coz the fish is lying down and in no way able to harm me. and thats nic's stoopid hand in the pic. "talk to the hand" haha.
ang pao expertly tying the fish with a string, so we can put it back into the water without releasing it. So as to ensure tt we'd have fresh fish for dinner!
here we see nic's retard-ness and boredom while we were under the HOT HOT sun and without any fish. seriously la.
LAME. lol.
that rock will be a momento for many more years to come.!
to end it all...
I'M AS HEALTHY AS A RIBENA BOTTLE!

bukit panjang pri
I'm back from bukit pangjang pri sch camp at bottle tree park.
(picture above, all burying kang kang! one of the stations)
omg omg. i'm so glad to be back... who wld haf thought a 2day1nite camp cld be so freaking tiring!!
camp fire prep was a disaster! dave and i, were blank for the first 45 mins, only towards the last 15mins we came up with sth. LOL.
BUT!!
somehow, our grps (5 and 6) managed to pull it off. Not fantastic, but their energy level damn high, and made up for the total lack of preparation.
pri sch kids can be really adorable.
BUT.
i muz say, at times, i got pretty infuriated.
firstly, i tink, this camp, i was really really fierce. LIKE> OMG. instructor joy, since when u become so fierce sia. I had to shout often, coz, apparently talking nicely didn't get me anywhere.. :( BOOOO. i scolded them abt their flashlights, littering, not forgetting how many times i had to unpack and repack all the bento boxes, coz the kids SIMPLY WERE NOT LISTENING TO MY INSTRUCTIONS!!! oh dun forget, talking while someone else was talking, playing, etc etc. the list goes on. LOL.
well, no complaints abt shouting and scolding, coz knowing pri sch kids, sometimes such scoldings are neccessary.
BUT.
the thing that really drived me crazy was I BECAME LIKE A PARROT.!!
example#1
me: sit down
*kids continue standing*
me : *looks at them* sit down.
*kids staring into blank space*
me : *POINTS* YOU! SIT DOWN NOW!
*kids finally get their butts to the floor*
example #2
me: move up
*kids continue sitting*
me: grp 5. move up. fill up the gaps.
*kids move 1cm*
me: STAND UP AND MOVE.
*kids begin to move slowly*
OMG OMG. thats the thing that really drived me crazy la.
HAVING TO REPEAT MYSELF OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER!!
haiyo.. made me soooo tired. well.. aside from all that. they were a pretty gd bunch of kids. :)
on the way back in the bus to their sch. was juz chatting with them abt random stuff. ie frogs leg porridge, laffing at their lameness, singing bdae song with them (for me apparently.LOL).
somehow, even tho' i'm damn shack. i kinda missed them once we parted!
hahha. oh yes, another thing that i realized during the camp.
I CANT STAND PEOPLE WHO HAF NO INITIATIVE.!
i had the gals in my grp form two circles and do their human entanglement. and all they did was stare blankly at each other... sighh...
I GOT SOMETHING TO CONFESS.
it was at times like that, that..
I MISSED MY DUNMANIAN BOYS AND GIRLS SO MUCH!!!
really really.. whenever i asked for help, i would definitely haf someone who wld immediately offer assistance. when presented with a game, they wld be able to tink it thru' and work it out as a team.
IMBA. i noe u guys miss lvl camp. honestly, ur instructor here, misses u all so much tooooo!!
i miss ur initiative! i miss ur team spirit! i miss ur lame-ness! i miss ur sweet smiles! i miss ur sleepy faces in the morning! and i miss each and every one of u!
:)
i'm thankful to haf been able to lead 20 fantastic and awesome teenagers.
daniel. MY FACE WAS NOT SPASTIC. even tho i said i looked spastic, ure not supposed to agree! i wan more lame jokes.... HO HO HO
yellow peach. HELLO!! :)
meiyi. yellow peach is rite. i'm not 17. its juz.. i lazy to update the layout. HAHAH. wanted to change the tagboard oso.. but... LAZY :P and no, i'm NOT dating jestyn. as much as u wish. i'm too young to date :p
eeliak. i noe who u are..... HAHAHAH. but i muz think first ... lol.
grace. WHAT CAMP?? isit done by high achievers?? :) i signed up for all camps in june. the thing is whether they call me up for help. HAHA.
btw, i had a p5 boy called zhen yang in my grp. HE SUPER CUTE. and totally reminded me of zhang yang. LOL.
LASTLY... pictures of spastic ppl. i was too excited. first time on LRT! ho ho ho
ta-dah!! lrt leh...!!
this pic is sooo blur.. coz rashid.. NO SKILL. lol
yay. flash makes it alll better.!
kailee! NICE PHOTO OF US. cut out the rest. HAHAHAHHA :P jkjk
omg. RASHID. WADS WITH THE FACE. kai lee, alvin, izzat, and of course me! looking goooood!!
ALVIN. UR HEAD BLOCK ME SIA.
