Alright. I'm going to make this post super quick. Won’t post photos yet. Have to sort them out.

I'm back from Desaru, and now I have TWO things to be sad about:

• Gema 13th May 2006
• Desaru trip 27th-28th May 2006


I hate the feeling when something's over. Like you wish you could do more, but you can't. And I'm sad ‘cos I didn't even get the chance to go down to the beach.

Oh and Sports Carnival was not as exciting as I thought. For one thing, I DID NOT GET TO PLAY FLOOOOOOORBALL. And the players didn't even want to SHOW UP. That, another story. Don't wish to dwell on it anyways. And besides, I was stuck at the doctors--Oh and the Xray turned out that they found 'something'.

The first day was just plain silly, really. We crapped about outside MCS room, hoping to get mercy from someone the uncle to open the door. The TA students were dead bored, or at least the bunch I was with was. We left for Sports Chambara in the end. Which was kind of fun ah (minus the pain). She whacked my chest I tell you. So painful ah.

And I thought the guy in the blue suit was cute. He poked me in the stomach then he grinned and waved goodbye. He had braces on, made him double the cute. hehe.

After the whole CHAMBARA thing, we were told that we had Inter CG game. We lost both items, enough said.

I did my homework and skipped the badminton finals. I just had to finish my work ah. I received loads of it. At first, I ended up at the MCS room, doing homework, till we had to vacate for the JKs' meeting. OH. And I waited for him to finish meeting to get my specs. I then ended up at Simei, eating a late lunch with the MCS bunch. Whee. Hahaha It was fun ah.

Oh and I GOT MY SPEEEEEEEECS. It turned out PRETTIER than I thought. :) Happy me.

What else ah?

Digression: Here by me is such a nice song. Swoon. (:

And the next day, I came to school at 12, and missed the Desaru Briefing. So stupid, I took a taxi, and in the end I missed it. I was too engrossed at home with my tablet, after I figured out the wireless problem, till I forgot about the time. It's so fascinating ah, now I can walk around the house with my tabbywabby and still have connection. YAY. I love daddy (:

Friday was kind of fun. Although I had nothing to do from 1 till 4 (we were stuck in school and the evil security guard did not let us out) Then Adila asked me to take part in skipmore, and did 8 pathetic skips. Sorry Alpha 3 :(

Then I joined Nadiah and Nadhirah and did stuff. We walked around, got ice-cream and all I can remember now is that we went to the floor ball court and played stuff.

And that's the end of Sports Carnival..... :)

Then came: DESARU BABY!

Alright, I shall try to remember every single detail of the trip.

Here goes…

I woke up at… 5? I got ready for my father to send me. I was praying that I didn’t leave anything behind, thank god I didn’t.

I think I reached school the earliest ah, I only saw Azri a few minutes after I arrived.

We boarded the bus with High Spirits. Me and Nadh did dikir, as usual. Till we reached woodlands, did the immigration stuff, and off we went to… DESARU-- with a few stops before reaching our destination. Yipee.

First stop: Breakfast.

Next stop: FRUIT FAAAAARM.

Next stop: LUNCH! Let me list down what we ate: BIGBIG FISH, LOBSTERS, LONGANS, FRIED RICE, TOFU... Damn nice. At first we were only served with fried rice and oyster omlette(however you spell it lah), and thought that that was the end of our meal. But no… more and more came. A whole array of seafood ah. Dang, I’m drooling thinking about it. Oh and the guys and girls at the other table were playing games. We were making so much noise, I thought it was cool. Haha. xD Ok, lame Izyan lame.

After lunch, we headed for DESARU! Yay (: Oh, during the ride, we were playing with balloons and the ball Adilah bought. For the first time that day, I laughed so much, I felt my stomach hurting. And little Iffah was being a darling, targeting the guys and hitting them on their heads. Cute lah.

Finally, Desaru.

Got our rooms. 222, pretty number no? Bunked in with Aishah and Atiqah.

Next: Team Building;
Grouped up with Aishah, Nadiah, Hafifah, Shahirah, Dinie, Nash, Ali and Shaik…
And you know what our group name was? TUDUNG! Cos you know why? We almost had all the tudung ladies in our group, except for Hakimah, who was in group 3, but it was ok. And we made Shaik our captain, yay. Our group was doing super well ah. Yay for tudungers (: + the serbans.

Then it started to rain, so everything was postponed to the next morning, and as for us, we headed back to the hotel and waited till 6, before we were off for… DINNER! At some place.

The journey to dinner was one of the most fun I had that day. We sang dikir songs as one MCS. All I could think of was, ahwww, instant bonding. I mean, all this time we were rivals against the guys ah(or so I thought). Not only dikir songs, we sang some other songs. I thought it was a pretty cool moment.

We finally had dinner, after the much singing and cheering. We reached this place by the beach and ate more seafood. Then… we… were… attacked… by… MOSQUITOES! A WHOLE SWARM OF THESE LITTLE AEDES ONES (or so I thought, hehe). And also, a lot of these big ants which had wings that flew around and landed on our food.

Enough about dinner. We then went to watch FIREFLIES! WHICH ARE SO PRETTY! On the way there, we played I never. Another fun session. After reaching the firefly place, which was located somewhere inside this really ulu place. Took a boat out and poof, FIREFLIES! One got attracted to me, and hung on to my sleeve. It was glowing… ahw, pretty can? CAAAAAAAAAAN.

And the stars… too many to be counted. So no one was missing me xD LOOOOL. Sorry. XP

Fireflies are gorgeous things. They are like little glowing eyes in the night canvas ah. (: Made me smile truckloads.

After the whole… firefly watching, we headed back, hotel sweet hotel, which was creepy at night. HAHA!

Oh! Then the IPs had a sleepover! And watched.. THE RIIIIIIING! Woohoo. We screamed and shrieked. And got a call -- supposedly from the receptionist, but hohoho, turns out to be a prank call from our seniors. It was fun, the sleepover. I slept with Atiqah and Dinie on the same bed. Hehehe.

Oh then came DAY TWO!

Morning call, well not exactly. Didn’t bathe, but ate breakfast… cos we were up for… RAFTING BABY! Woohoo. Time to test our rafts!

Here’s another mouthful of events, so be prepared!
We got our rafts, carried them to the… uh… pond? Reservoir? River?
We were told to raft from the small little jetty to this place. It was fun, nonetheless -- I don’t know how many time’s I’ve used this F word – but yes, it was FUN, with a capital F and U and N!

The water was warm and the floor was sludgy and muddy and cool. I stepped in and tadah, instant sinking!

After we reached the… other side, we were asked to connect all four rafts together, and make one bigbigbig MCS raft. Hahaha. I was sitting in front. Hehe. First class seats man xD

After the whole… raft thing, we had an obstacle course.
There was the swinging thing, which I fell, and the balancing on a plank, monkey bar – which we walked instead of monkey-ing across, the wall – I swear, I salute shaik and ali for carrying us up --, and the crawling-under-barbwire thing, which was super fun. And to make things happier, we were the first group to go! Yay tudung!

Then after the whole thing, we headed back.
Washed up – I bathed with my roomies. All three of us, in the same toilet, in the same bathtub. Don’t tell you what happened. xD

And sadly, we checked out. Took a photo as one whole MCS.

Ok… so a photo won't hurt.. So here is us:






And… then comes the trip back to Johor, with our last lunch together.

ANDD.. SHOPPING! (: and after the whole shopping thing, we headed back to Singapore!

Where more fun awaited us on the bus, when the guys decided to do their forfeits. Matured topics man, matured. Haha.

Last but not least, we bid farewell. (:

HIDUP TEMASEK! (:

I love MCS.

And with this, I end my 1000++++ word entry.

So much for a quick update huh? Toods (:
