I'm not quite sure on what I should be feeling right now about being chosen for NS. I know that I don't mind going, in fact I can safely say that I'm curious and am somewhat looking forward to it. However, anyone who knows me and my situation will know about my insecurities, not to mention the fact that I've to learn how to shower within 15 minutes, which I probably fail at every time I need to wash my hair.
I love water related activities, but the only drawback is that I've to take off my hearing aids as the risk of getting wet is rather high, so I'll have to get a partner who can understand my condition and is willing to be my messenger if I do want to go kayaking. God forbid that I get my (RM 3500-RM 4000 each) hearings aids damaged all because I had to wear them since I didn't want to miss anything and didn't have anyone to be my ears.
On another note, I screamed and screamed for 10-15 seconds when Adeline called to relay the news that I got in. In fact, she was in her mom's car on the way to tuition with her siblings in it, so they heard me loud and clear. She was also wearing her earphones, so when I started screaming like a banshee out of hell, she ripped of her earphones and threw them down.
Perhaps I should have screamed louder? Anyway, I also said somethings along the lines of "Why God, why?!" and "I can see my life flashing before my eyes". Dramatic isn't it? Unfortunately, drama doesn't help in this situation, so it didn't really help.
I also sent another message to enquire about my camp, sad to say I haven't gotten a reply yet. I wonder when I'll get it.
Eugene though, was throwing a tantrum, and I was having a rather good time shooting him down too. A couple of my friends also got in, namely Cheau Yee and Ching Weng, and a few others that I'm not particularly close to. Hey, their names both begin with 'C', well at least after their surnames, I never really did notice.
On another note, I was almost left alone for Literature today, if it wasn't for JC, who offered to keep me company. Thank God for him, I was almost afraid that I would be sitting alone in a row of four tables, it's rather unpleasant. He was an interesting conversationalist, to say the least, and he actually offered to help me enquire about a place in the Add Maths tuition that I was meaning to call up but never got around to doing it.
Adeline will probably sigh and shake her head, before telling me that I better hurry up and call the teacher, because he has already finished Tringonometry or something like that, or was it Redox for Chemistry? Either way, I put it away and promise myself to remember to call, but will end up procrastinating again. Thank God for JC this time, I owe him one, or two, perhaps.
On another note, I'm the first in my mother's and father's side of the family to get into NS, I don't suppose I'll get a farewell party before going there so that I can drink myself drunk? I'll definitely make a beeline for the Baileys, Red Wine and White Wine, though I'll run from Vodka, I could never stand the taste of it, or maybe I should try it again. Who knows, my preference might have changed.
Now, how on earth do I finish bathing in 15 minutes when I'm shampooing my hair?! It doesn't take me long to shampoo and condition my hair, but it's the conditioning part that causes me to take a long time as it's not easy to fully wash it out unless I've a strong water pressure and the water has a large coverage area, if you get what I mean.
Should I get the shampoo that my sis used to use instead? It's shampoo and conditioner combined, and the effects are not bad too, though I still prefer using shampoo and conditioner seperately. Or should I try the unopened bottle of shampoo and conditioner combined that's in my dad's bathroom? It seems like a nice brand, has anyone heard of a brand called Epoch?
I really don't like cutting short my bathroom time, it's like a time for me to just relax and unwind after a long day, and the sound of water is somehow really soothing to me. Don't be surprised if I end up falling asleep in the bathroom, because I'm prone to doing so.
Somehow, I feel so much calmer and serene these last few days, must be the weather. It's been so cool, and even when I was hot I actually managed to keep my cool, so I doubt that it's the weather. Hm, I wonder how it happened, but I hope it lasts.
I have absolutely no idea what to wear to my school's Interact Club's Installation. Should I wear my black long-sleeved turtleneck, white pants and white vest? Or should I wear a beige pants instead? Or should I change the top to a button-up 3/4 sleeves blue shirt with a black sleeveless V-neck with the white or beige pants? I'm really not sure, a little help anyone?! Don't tell me to wear a dress, I've a waist the size of a tree trunk and will look awful in one!
Adeline, help me!!!!!!!! T.T

Man your post is long. I don't know where to start.
Okay...where should I start first.
About NS, well you have to start training yourself to shower within 15 minutes. Or else you're going to face a lot of complaints from the other members.
Oh yea, if there's any screaming competition, I'm sure you'll get first prize. Man you are loud. haha...XP
About your hearing aids, you have to inform the trainers in advance and inform one of your members about your condition.
Well i guess you already settled your add math tuition. What about chem, by Monday if you haven't call sir, by all means i'll just tell/ beg sir to let you join.
Outfit wise, I already gave you some suggestions. So it's up to you.
I guess that's all I can comment...
By Adel ^^
Of course it's long, I haven't posted anything for such a long time now, so I've to make up for it.
I enjoy my bathroom time, and I don't like having to cut it short!
Of course I'll win, I've been screaming since young, though I can't scream as loudly as I used to.
True, but I hope that they'll excuse me if my batteries were to run out in the middle of Marching, I don't want the whole team to be penalised because I couldn't hear the commands.
Tre true, but according to him I might have to squeeze with the guys, don't like it. But if I do have to, then I'll definitely make a beeline for him, since he's the only one I know.
True true, but my hair's fate is in Aly's hands, I just hope it'll all go well.
Oh, and tell Mr.Gan I will join the Friday class, though I will prefer to join the Monday one since you're there.
Charmaine:
To me, your post looks very much like a comical blog of a 3 year old children dreading to go to the Kindergarten^^ hahaha, its like, worrying this and worrying that...lol, the shampoo predicament, the shower dilemma, the earset headache! Its like almost anticipating it.
Did i throw a tantrum? If i did, i didn't know, haha, but luckily i didnt shouted in the house or anything, though i shouted a great deal in class and in school, to my friends to my teachers, haha, not shouting in anger mind you, but shouting just for the sake of shouting, god had been so unfair.
Even so, i'm wondering whether the shouting and banging and tantrum thingy is worth is, as I am unsure whether i CAN go or not, I'm afraid if i am taking A levels i will be missing it, but teachers had told us that going to the NS naturally earned us 10 marks..so its easier to get JPA. DARN, just when i've stopped shouting, i couldn't stop screaming.
Well...one of the most funniest part is Charmaine, that Adeline had to plug of her headset when u screamed, my my, what a nie scream u must have. When Adel told me casually over msn, i figured u were juz merely raising your voice. ^^ Unfortunately, it was like a "banshee" out of hell~
lol, fashion headache again? Go simple then with a matching colour tone, too elaborated dressings doesn't necessary earns u compliments of nods of approval, but sometimes, simplicity does the trick~
I've been typing too much, i think. Since this is bout NS, i'm in no hurry to stop anyway, if it doesn't bother you.
And when it comes to NS, i always couldnt stop talking, shouting, writting, lamenting to every last creature on earth that would spare their time to listen.
I'm acting a like freakin' spoiled baby.
GEne~
and i forgot to sday all bout the farewell party~
Cool if u can have one^^ I definitely wont, hahah~
but its nice, the idea of getting drunk before going to NS, its obligatory....and the hangover, the perfunctioning aftermath^^
LUVLY~ remember to invite me alright? i wouldn't make it but i have some nice thai wine coolers, wine, alcohols and whickies here enough to get me drunk too
Of course it is, I've never been to NS before, besides it's 3 months long, so you never know what might happen there.
If I'm not wrong, you have to go. So pray that you're in the first batch or else you will have to postpone your A levels.
I always go for simple colour tones, it was what to wear that concerned me.
I never get hangovers, probably because I tend to sleep until my body wakes itself up. I'm not sure if I'm going to have a party though, but I'l definitely try to go for Adeline's.
