FOR (Fun-o-rama) was a blast.
the games stall people were fantastic and i got to know many people better.. for the better or the worse. and i realized that i've been too ignorant or one-sided in the way i viewed my classmates or i've learnt that some people aren't that bad afterall.
i think our games stall is one of the stall that brought in the most profits amongst all others due to how we advertise despite being just around the bend whereby no one can see us from the entrance, and apparently, it was quite hard to find. but the games is addictive and you see how the little boys keep coming back just to knock king-kong down. my most-said phrase of the day "you can prizes if you knock king-kong and/or his friends down. the animals on the landscape and mountain are worth different points. would you like to play" super-soaker is bloody popular and bloody messy but bloody fun. haha. we get shot at a lot of times and we kept screaming and shouting. i think we are more high than the kids who played. we were like "shoot polar bear. it's very unstable.. come on.. shoot them all down.. shoot the soldier into the river"
and king kong is KNOCKABLE! i'm serious. this little 12 or 13 year old kid actually won the bike home. i was out slacking with bonnie and we came back.. the bike was GONE! i'm so upset i didn't got to see the highlight. such dampening spirits. and it's actually more fun to stay in the stall away from the sun. away from the rain. and away from the people. away from the food. i smell like chocolate every time i walked into the hub. you smell chocolate before you see it. it's scary. i think the food people are really sick of fondue. and i'm proud of my class boys who dress up as king-kong under the blazing sun. woah sam was like drenched in sweat when he came back. his whole shirt was soaked! but it definitely bring in the crowds. haha. and he was most successful when he really scared amaria. lol. and bobby the shorter version of king-kong but i'm surprised he actually agreed to do it.
ah, and friends who came to FOR. zh, gerrad, sheryl, debo. liz, did you come? you never call me:(
then my dear classmates who put in so much effort. amaria, andrea, andre, jo, bonnie, matt, bobby, sam, ruth. and moniza and pearlly and aisyah who helped us with the whole landscape and the point system when you guys are supp to be in food. then we have the people who are supp to be in games but i never see them doing their shifts coz they claim they are tired after helping out in the food. like WTHHH!!! ok, everything's over now and i dun really want to talk about them. they just left a very bad impression for the rest of the year and that's it about working together with them. zh said that our polo tee's design was nice. hmm, you haven't seen better. lol! i dun mind the design if it's a poster. not a tee. it's too rectangular due to the borders. but ah well, i've paid 14 dollars. but i think everyone was pretty amazed by our replica of the FOR shoes, which jo and aisyah were being such nice souls, helping us paint the whole of friday. it's not pretty pretty. but definitely worth the keep. i've so many FOR collectibles. it's quite..
we had a foursome (muahaha) dinner at swensens after all was over and well. we took the second-floor which was monopolized with acsians.. jun's friends on one and gen's class on the other. quite hilarious how we made so much noise. i think we were pretty noisy for four people cos we laugh damn loudly. but it was funny how bonnie does her imitation shows and amaria being as usual, sarcastic. but we toned down quite a bit and started talking about random classmates and the things we just don't like about it and how our class is so dis-united and we know there's nothing much we can do about it. think of it, we have matt, bobby and sam having their boys night-out cos we know there were some friction. luckily we din join them or we will feel constricted. then the food gang and food-game-wannabes doing their stunts at BK and us, in-betweens or others (so insulting) having great time at swensens. we were like "we need to spurge" and we did. haha. we just talked and i just realized how wrong i was about some people and i felt so guilty.
it's just like how when bonnie and jo stayed over on friday night and we had almost similar chats about the friends we had and the problems we face in class.. the social conflicts that we deal with. and how we realized that although matt can be a pain in the ass sometimes cos of his remarks, but he is actually very driven and will go all out to get things done and how he moves to and fro from food and games to see everything running efficiently and as well as the earn-money-by-taking-pics-with-king kong idea.
i'm not someone who opens up easily and i would be guarded unless i trust you.. which explains why i only tell bonnie and jo some stuff this year. so when i actually tell you what i think, i really think highly of the friendship. wahhh, haha, so honoured yeah?
and i like having catching-up sessions with people and i'll actually try to squeeze in time for them. people that i haven't met for ages or people though i see them everyday, i dun get to talk to them, just hi and bye all the time :(
but i need a break from all the buzz n actually getting down to work. terms are half a month away and to my parents, it's you show the grades or you die. stress. sigh. die. blah.
