POP!
shall stop procrastinating and start blogging my overdue entries lest i have to blog a week's worth of entries in 3 days' time. okk. so on tues nite we had to report back to camp and we waited 2 hours or so for bus cos the pes C privates just POP-ed and they were given bus priority. :/ went back camp, accounted for and returned our equipment, and then had a mini party before going to sleep at 1ish, 2.
it turned out to be a rather short sleep, cos i was awakened by a burning sensation on my thigh at ard 0330. basically, my platoon mates squeezed deep heat (a muscle rub which burns) on me. like omgg. haha. according to my bunk mates i was whining for a while HAHA. then aft that i suddenly got up and wiped off the deep heat and splatted it on the nearest guy who attacked me. so they got to see the whiny + violent side of me in one night HAHA.
cldnt sleep after that cos my thigh had a burning sensation. somehow i did fall asleep again, prolly ard 4+, and woke up at 5+ again. went for breakfast, then filled in some forms, then went for a short award ceremony. it was quite scary thoughh. cos weather was hot and
yuxuan who was just standing behind me just fainted like that. after that, said goodbye to our bunks for the last time, and then went for lunch.
aft lunch we got ready for our POP! it was raining and ppl were praying that the rain would persist so we wouldnt have to do the marching and all but i was amongst those that wanted the rain to stop cos we had spent days practising our parade, it is simply not worth it to cancel it. :/ indeed the rain stopped and we all had a nice graduation parade (even though the reviewing officer took ages to make her speech everyone was complaining like crazy). aft that took lots of pictures, said bye to our commanders and all, and made our way back to mainland le! yayy for no more tekong! i can sayy i totally WONT miss this dreaded island, but i will miss the memories and the people. hopefully we will meet again in unit (:
then on thursday, i went for DSTA final interview in the morning. it was quite bad cos basically they were reluctant on supporting a pure maths student while i refused to budge on my stand of no EE. i argued quite a bit and all. but they did accept some of the stuff which i said. oh wells. i shall wait a mth later to see how the result turns out ;)
went to have my fave fishball noodles at my fave stall cos it was on the way back from home. had like 10 fishballs HAHA. my dad was rather horrified at the number of fishballs i could eat. :P aft lunch, i got back and started preparing to meet my
tutee! (: i must sayy hes rather keen to learn, but i was seriously unprepared cos it was meant to be a chatting and get to know each other session only. but still i taught him maclaurins (:
i was sorta expecting the lesson to end in an hr, but in the end i took 2hrs in all to settle the syllabus and go thru his existing maths tutorials. whee. its quite funn but i realised there were many facts tt i had started to forgotten thanks to my rusting brain. but nvm! i hope the tuition lessons i conduct will help derust my brain (: looking forward to the next session where we will actually begin lessons! starting off with SHM *coughs* and graphing techniques.
shall continue blogging about the next few days in my subsequent entries (:
