managed to back up data and just installed windows 7. the interface is really quite pretty :) but i'd still take xp over 7, just that xp was just so sluggish for some reason or another.
venture leadership course seminar today. sigh, had to give up piano workshop for this. yeah, as if we learnt a lot too. at the beginning they made each and every one of us take turns and stand up individually to say "Hi" to everyone. then everyone'd go 'hiiiii' in response. yeah, i totally knew every one of the 80+ scouts' names after that...even seow was like "don't you have a better way to take attendance?" when it was his turn to stand up, haha.
juno and kegan were organizing. it was kinda funny to listen to them give orders while we sat in the audience. koon han came as well...i think i know where they got the "Hi" idea from now. all of us were divided into patrols and sub-camps. our patrol eventually got named "Scorpion" by this fellow in our group...because "a scorpion has 6 legs and 1 tail. without any one part of its body, it cannot function." uh huh... heh, i think it could continue crawling around missing one leg what. anyways. we were supposed to name our sub-camp too. all sorts of silly names started spilling out...in the chaos, i heard tri (oh yes, he was there too!) suggesting "Super mario!!". eventually we ended up with 5 choices- some joker had come up with "turtle" and the de facto leader of our subcamp liked it quite a bit. the names we had to choose from were:
1. Tropicana Turtle
2. Horny Turtle
3. Stone Turtle
4. Ninja Turtle
5. Extremist Turtle...?
LOL i think the last one was quite funny la. but some other guys seemed to like no.4 more, so we ended up as camp ninja turtle. the other sub camp named themselves Afoofa...whatever that means. all for one, one for all according to google. haha anyway the patrol names were quite funny too. Patrol 1 named themselves "ONE" because "we are number one" etc etc. Patrol 2 named themselves "TOO" because...two is better than one. then there was one patrol that named themselves Alpha Wolf and another that named themselves Alpha Wolves. okay...
the lectures were super interesting. i paid lots of attention and scribbled down many notes on managing a scout exco, how to plan events and the important aspects of leadership. okay, so i lied...well, i kept falling asleep. but i wasn't the only one- the NUS high girl in our group kept dozing off more than i did anyway. sigh, but she didn't get spotted. on the other hand...
*speaker spots me*
"oi ACS, tired ah?"
:/ uh oh. received an sms from ben later in the day asking why i wasn't going for the piano workshop. replied him and spun my phone for awhile in my hands...then fell asleep. and dropped the phone. gah, the noise was quite...jarring. z. i don't think i fell asleep after that. heh, i don't know how i kept falling asleep with all the sweets and chocolate i had. starburst gummies and old gold chocolate! super sweet haha. thank you grandpa :) but terrible for health lol. i think my face looks ready to explode now...
so today was the seminar. next saturday and sunday are the residential camp at sarimbun. i don't want to go. z. i want to do work...hey, i'm feeling stressed now. yay!! motivation.
darn, king lear extract. i just had to be the second last one, huh.
