RANDOM EVENT: I felt kinda' guilty the other day. I caused my poor friend ta' worry for no reason. It happened during lunch break. I was sittin opposite him whilst my friend was sittin next ta' him. The back of his laptop was facing me and I had just returned with a cup of steaming hot tea, with the smoke still comin out. I placed it behind his laptop. Suddenly, he made a jerky movement of lowering his laptop screen before breathing a sigh of relief. I was kind of shocked for a moment, then he explained. Well...poor chap...he apparently thought that his laptop was burning or something from typing too much...he saw the smoke from my tea but not the actual cup of tea. We had a good laugh over it. Pretty amusing actually XD

What a week!
Whoah...last week was one hell of a roller coaster week for me!! There were really exciting moments as well as mega upsetting moments for me. O.o I shall talk all about it bit by bit...sounds agonizing but it's true...cause i haf a really bad memory so i hafta' pick at my brains for the memories bit by bit....
Okay i got back my CA results for some of my modules, mainly my Design Basics(DB), Fundamentals of Marketing(FOM), Intro to Media Writing(IMW) as well as Intro to Communication Principles(ICP). I must say I was really joyous when i received my results. 3As and a D, pretty decent grades i would say. My IMW module was a D...which I really was not surprised cause I have a bad habit of writing flowerly languages and I do not like being precise and concise when I am writing...this module is probably going to be a killer module for me. Nevertheless I was really happy wif my results, considering I topped my class along with two other girls for FOM and my ICP grp topped the whole cohort o.o My friend couldn't stop jumping up and down XD it was pretty amusing ^^
Now...for the bad part my family....ahh...well...i dunno wad came over them...but I THINK i was the tipping point...though to be honest, I have absoloutely no idea if it is true or not. Anyway I came home and I realised the two of them were arguing...as in REALLY arguing. They squabble half the time but that day was really scary. It was to the extent that my father, who is normally a calm person, blew up and became hysterical. Oh in addition, my mother threatened to commit suicide too. I freaked. I REALLY freaked. I was so afraid that my mother would REALLY kill herself. I had never been so scared before in my life, and that was saying something. My dad said I would regret it when I told him it's not fair to me if he forces me to do something I do not wish to do just because my mum and him can't settle their own problems. When my mother sms-ed me, I freaked and called my aunt. She was a GREAT help...sarcastic wise. I was past the boundary of panicking already and it was understandable cause I was scared, afraid, upset, everything-in-one. Obviously I wouldn't be able to keep calm and think straight! Yet she still scolded me for calling her and acting hysterical plus she decided to give me a freaking lecture! I was seriously pissed off and just wanted to hang up on her. Luckily, what little that was left of my senses told me NOT to do it so I just put the phone away from my ear and cried. It really sucked. In the end I just told my aunt that i wanted to sleep, apologised to her and hung up. She said she loved me, but I just couldn't believe her, much as i wanted to , i just can't. Love is through action, not words. I never believed in pure words of love. Oh yes, my father sort of threw away the house phone...down the rubbish chute. Up till now, I still have no idea what logical reason he had behind his action, thus i came to the conclusion that he was just too angry =)
Thankfully, those two had enough sense to go see a PROFESSIONAL counsellor (strangely I got this information from my friend, not my parents themselves...interesting ain't it? ^^ ) Things pretty much got back to normal...but...after all these time of detaching myself....I guess i still need a little getting used to...in order to get my life back straight....I do not wish for any external interference anymore...just hope that my family, from now on, are able to settle their own problems, without involving me or my friends...
END OF PART 1
Okay now NDP!!! Haha this week we are in charge of Primary 5 kids! They're so cute! Though my friend had the smartest idea of sculpturing a machine gun balloon and after that we had a whole horde of little kids screaming and asking for it. It isn't exactly easy to make....and my arms were soar from pumping the balloons. I didn't know how to make the machine gun so I just pumped the balloons continuously until my arms nearly dropped!!! Oh...and later on when we were motivating the people, it started pouring and we got drenched. OMG!!! I couldn't stop sneezing!! There was lightning so we were kind of stuck below the floating platform...there was a large space, perfect for a 'gathering' of all the performers and audiences. Well, after awhile, cause of the horrible ventilation due to too many people being cramped up together...people started fainting, as in LITERALLY. There were two motivators who just dropped down onto the floor and had to be carried away whilst another two looked deathly pale, as if they were on the verge of fainting. My friend was pretty surprised that I did not faint cause I looked really fragile and pale. Our mentors continuously inquired if we were feeling all right and luckily in my group, no one fainted. I ended up reaching home at 11 plus...man i was bushed, even for a nocturnal creature who is usually awake at night, I could not stay awake past 2am...n that is saying something cause I am normally up till 3 or 4 in the morning on weekends.
Well that's all for my week....Sunday was a rest day for me...so nothing much. Just stoning and slacking around the entire day...of course i chiong my work at night >_> last minute HAHA! *blushes* Hehe. Now...back to work XD ciaos people!
