last week in a glance
havent been blogging for a while! will briefly talk about the past week.
last sunday was class outing! i was performing guard duty on saturday, and my tour of duty ended on sunday, so i had to rush home, bathe, and catch some sleep first. after that, i went to city hall to meet whoever's coming for lunch.
turned out to be only a small bunch of us (
est +
grace +
kenneth +
js + myself) we had lunch at jacks place, followed by kbox, and
wang kan joined us at this point in time.
since there were'nt many people at kbox, everyone could sing quite a lot. it was quite fun, singing all the new songs AND crazy songs. and we made an interesting discovery on
jiashun's talents :P after kbox, we had dinner, and
mr lee was supposed to join us (with ethan) but we got pangsehed ): still, we had a nice gathering at ministry of food, and the dessert was fabulous.
anyway, i missed the table tennis women's team finals that night due to class outing, and it turned out that we were unable to defeat china to claim the gold medal. still, it took a great effort for our singaporean women's team to make it to the finals and win the silver medal. once again, congrats to them for winning singapore's first medal in 48 years.
on wed, i had an engagement lunch with my DE and fellow scholars. it was an enjoyable and casual session, and we found out a bit more of what we can expect in the months to come, after our ORD! *looks forward to flying off next year*
on thur, i went back to camp in the morning, and then left early to get ready for the discussion session chaired by Senior Minister of State, Mr Lui. it was an eye-opening session, where fellow scholars fired their opinions, alternative ideas, and doubts on the PM's national day rally, and we got to see various issues from the perspectives of many others. it was a rather fruitful session that night (:
on friday, which was yesterday, i was on off, so i stayed at home and watched THREE TABLE TENNIS MATCHES! omg. i watched the one with li jia wei playing against zhang yining, then the one with li jia wei playing against guo yue, and finally the gold medal match where zhang yining played wang nan. undoubtedly, the chinese team have fought brilliantly, and they do deserve the gold, silver and bronze women's singles medals. however, i was rather disappointed that our singapore table tennis players were unable to claim any of the table tennis single medals. li jia wei and feng tianwei definitely have the capability. in the case of feng tianwei, it was probably lack of experience, and i look forward to seeing her claim one of the singles medals in 2012 (IN LONDON!) haha ill be in UK at that point in time, so maybe i might have a chance of going there? in the case of li jia wei, i felt that she probably needed to be able to better handle pressure. hopefully we will have more medals coming our way in the next olympics (:
oh, and fish has yet another nice new song!
今天情人节 - 梁静茹小任性 闹情绪
纵然爱淋过了雨滴
放开又握紧 会思念的熟悉
坏习惯 倔脾气
没道歉也可以忘记
那是什麽都不计较的记忆
再找到你悲伤的海边
更靠近天堂 看的更远
我们笑著跑很远 海岸线的蜿蜒
一个微妙的体贴
我知道今天会是情人节
不是第一次听你说永远
泪水还是涌成温泉
一个为爱的改变
我知道今天就是情人节
你要我看见我有多特别
让心快乐的跑过一整年
坏习惯 倔脾气
没道歉也可以忘记
那是什麽都不计较的亲昵
再找到你悲伤的海边
更靠近天堂 看的更远
我们笑著跑 很远海岸线的蜿蜒
为你唱一首歌的时间
泪水在脑海绕地球几圈
每个芝麻绿豆那麽小的情节
围成像星光满天
比一克拉亮的钻戒
每年过366个节
