Lastly, we applied to go for School Overseas Trip to Gold Coast, Australia and guess what YAY we finally managed to go for it LOL.
Still remember we were all so excited for it and were almost talking about it everyday during our lunch breaks or while walking back after school. It's so funny because at that moment we still have like 5/6 months till the actual trip and we were already deciding on our roommates, what would be our sleeping attire for day 1 and so forth. We were just so excited for it.
There was once it was during the MSA period and we had two papers in a day with a four hours break inbetween. Instead of studying or preparing for the next paper, we were sitting outside the library in a line which somehow just nice was the same as the seating arrangement in the plane like we were seating two by three by two.
And we decided to go crazy and drama-mama acting like we're on the plane towards Gold Coast already hahaha it was just so funny at that point of time.
Whenever there is people walking past we would be saying that they are heading to the toilet and when there is cleaner pushing their trolley past us we would say that they are the air stewards/stewardess serving us our meals HAHAHA FML thinking back we were really stupid.
We could even take some random promotion boards at the front and act as if they are the small interactive television broadcasting movies hahahahaha it was all just us and our drama-mama moments.
It was around January the leaders started to plan for the trip together with the facilitators and yeah I helped to designed the T-shirts for the trip too. Been wanting to design like the "course" t-shirt for our course but just didn't really have the motivation to start on it till this time round haha. I've already had an idea all these while on what kind of design I'm looking for in the shirt and starting wasn't very smooth as I wasn't able to really get what I really wanted hence it was really stressful. It was also during the Chinese New Year and ESE period where I need to have my CNY fun and then read my notes too (had to say read because I don't think what I did is counted as studying HAHA) and it was pretty stressful because I thought the deadline was near and I'm afraid that I'll not be able to come out with a design I'm satisfied but in the end there wasn't even a so called "deadline" hahaha just had to make sure we are able to get the shirt before the trip.
After a few days of trying and editing I'm finally on track with the type of design I wanted and just some editing here and there and confirmation from the leaders and yay we're done with the designing part!
designed by YOURS TRULY. :D |
After all these plannings and all with time passing really fast we finally reached March which the month of the event! March was a crazy month with lots of plans and funs happening and I'll try to blog if I have the chance but mannn March was lit 🔥
We had a pre-trip bonding day where Wan Ling had to plan out a series of games for us to bond together before we go on the trip. Wan Ling was still so stressed over what games to conduct as we're all young adults and all the usual bonding games seriously doesn't interest us anymore HAHA and we were trying to think of ideas in class and during breaks so as to make it a unique bonding day for all.
Eventually Wan Ling and Joe came out with a lot of ideas and conducted the bonding day on 3 March 2017. It started at 9am in the morning and i'm like wtf its too early for me man and its during the holiday somemore where my body clock usually fucks up so it was really a torture for me to wake and drag my body over to school for the bonding session haha. And yeah as usual I was late LOL for about 10-15 or so but yeah at least I went for it hahaha better to be late than not going.
We played Whacko first followed by pass the message.

When we played pass the message, we were divided into groups and it was really funny because I got grouped together with Mr Zachary and tbh I really do not understand every single shit he acted out HAHAHAHA we did pretty badly for that segment.
We played Don't Forget the Lyrics too and it was really fun because I know most of the songs that was chosen and yay we eventually won in the end ✌️ Thanks to Wan Ling and Thiam Joe in coming out with all those games and efforts put into getting the necessary logistics and preparation. Much Appreciated! 🙌
Before this trip I had a few staycations going on and every week was filled with plans that I do not really have time to find a job and to pack my luggage and my mom has been nagging ever since asking me to start packing early and all but I was just too lazy man haha.
Eventually I started to take out my luggage and some clothing on the Saturday before we fly off which is on Monday night. Did some packing but eventually gave up LOL.
On Sunday, had to go out and purchase a new SD card for my DSLR because the current SD card I'm using isn't fast enough for my 60D to take video hence I had to get one that is fast enough. Lucky it doesn't cost that much man if not I'll probably be stressed over should I bring my camera or not since it was kinda bulky too anyway. Was planning to get it at the IT Show happening at Suntec but I was really too lazy so I went to Causeway Point and got one at $12.90 meh. Went back home and continued to pack my luggage and eventually finish packing with half of my luggage space still available!! (yes I brought a slightly bigger medium size luggage over)
Thats it for Pre-Trip man. Will try to update the rest of the trip soon and shaggg my writing skills is still so awkward man. Hope it improves as I write on.
Alright man, its KimTaevin pressing the Publish button now. PEACE :D 🙌
