Had MND award presentation rehearsals. really, what is there to say about rehearsals? ok so i got to know other scholars. and we learnt when and where to walk up and down the stage -.-

150710, 160710
Had the MND induction program. so basically we just went to visit the various stat boards. URA: URA centre, BCA: BCA academy, AVA: labs @ limchukang, HDB: toapayoh HDB hub, NParks: Singapore Garden Festival. the NParks one was the most interesting cos there was like erm no coporate video screening. hahahaha. the AVA one was the most traumatising one cos i saw fishes being killed with a snip. eeeee. and got to know the other scholars better. i mean there's pretty nothing else much to do when you are with them the whole day, you make friends.

ended too late to go back to dhs for the sharing session so i went to turf club with my family. to watch horse racing ocs i never see before. so before going in, i told my father i want to bet on horse number 4 for the first race we will be watching. so i bet $5 and horse number 4 won. hahahahaha. the horse's name is Recycle World. oh and it was like a hot favourite so the payout wasn't too good but i won $3 and it covered the entrance fee. hehheh. after that we went to yishun for supper :D yummy :D

went to the expo with shunjie and jolene to go to the food and electronics fair. didn't get any food (OMGOMGOMG), jolene took a lot of flyers and shunjie bought his camera. after that we went to the flea market where jolene went crazy and started buying a lot of things because they were cute. the tarot cards reading was too expensive or we would have tried. haha. went to bugis where jolene's clsmates were so late and the 2 of us went off with kim, yiwei, ziren and waisiang for lunch at the jappy place with hightech ordering system. food wasn't ok. love the ordering system. haha. after that met up with chikong to watch inception. no spoilers, but the movie really isn't as complicated as everybody made it out to be. it's good. love it. but leo dicaprio is getting old. after that met up with weiliang to go to the night fest which is so not our thing so we left and had supper at tcc. reached home at like 2plus.

MND award presentation. ok so finally the actual ceremony. no more rehearsals :D the feeling of getting the award from the minister was like woah. like erm HAHA IT'S MINE! ok it's basically a happy feeling. and the eclairs were yummy. hahahaha. ok la other than happy and like proud, i dunno how to describe anymore so yah.

went to the zoo with my mummy. i fed the giraffes :D 5 bucks leh. i think the zoo is worth the money. and i like the splash safari show. we caught all the shows and some feeding times. after the zoo we went to amk to eat dinner and meet my father and brother. then we went to the night safari. o.m.g. such a waste of time and money. the night safari is like there are zones of animals which can only be seen if we take the tram ride. but the tram ride is like an additional $10. if animals can only be seen from the tram, then shouldn't they just incorporate the tram ride fee into the entrance fee? i feel damn cheated. like i pay to go in and see air and see people get on the tram. good thing 3 out of 4 of the tickets were free. so we just went to see whatever animals we can by walking and it isn't much because every enclosure we go to, we have to find damn hard and some of the animals can't even be seen. we just imagine they are there. urgh. love the zoo, but not the night safari.

went to foxtrot social night as huanjun's date. and people commented that his date very pretty. totally agree :D hahahaha. there was a rather awkward air among the girls cos we dunno anyone there except for some schoolmates we see here and there. food was alrights, but they kept clearing the plates before we finished the food and they never ask. the performances were nice, they reduced the need to talk over the table, but that defeats the purpose of the SOCIAL night. lol. and after the whole thing, hj and i weren't full enough, so we went for supper. haha.

ok pictures are all on facebook.
