the past few weeks had been eventful..ftb, followed by asoc camp and there was also the 5-day english language workshop..hmm i was rather anti social and quiet during the camps..well i was usually quiet when it comes to getting-to-noe pple..for both camps, the weather wasnt v gd..it rained and drizzled, which is kinda disruptive esp in the midst of sm activities..ftb was more of a teambuilding thing which emphasized on reflection and wad u learnt kinda things..there were sm thought-provoking stations lo..but i felt tat rafting and final challenge were the best..tunnelling was lyk shit..it was so dark inside la..cant even see anyth in there..and all thx to tat, i got all my blue-black on my leg..the tent we slp in was big but wasnt really water proof..well mb bcoz o the heavy downpour oso lah..my tent was lyk flooding..okie la mb its only my side..which woke me up fr my slp..the meals okie lo..it wasnt fantastic la but i din expect much since we were at camps..however, the drinks were nice..the chrysanthemum and chestnut..
as for asoc camp, its more fun..jux play and enjoy ourselves..station games and sentosa..it seems lyk every camp will be gg to sentosa..buffet during the last night..tats our best dinner=)we drank during the asoc camp..or rather we were 'forced' to drink..we started to play yee-ha cum diu diu diu and card games which were initiated by the facis..and the forfeit was to drink..initially our drinking wasnt very xiong..but after anot faci qiang xia to our faci, he decided to increase the amt we drink each time to half a cup..wa seh den in the end, i tink tat nite alone i drank lyk 4 cups lo..mb even more..after the drinking was the dancing..i tink its qt standard there..so we danced and danced till 3 plus 4..the next morning when i woke up i got rashes lo..omg..
and the 5- day elw..omg i really hope i can pass the test..if not i hafta take anot test which i haf no idea wad will b tested nor wads the format lyk..the 5-day workshop was really killing..imagine urself spending 8 hrs a day, fr 9 to 5, for 5 days, jux to study eng..oh yes..i realise studying grammar can b tough too..there's so many rules to rmb..i have been doing qns on grammar usuage rather instinctively or whether it sounded correct not..omg!and there will b a test at the end o each dae, which will be counted twds our grade in the end..pls pray hard for me..i dun really think i learnt much tat is useful when i was doing the test..perhaps bcoz my attitude twds the workshop wasnt v positive alr at the v beginning..why is it only those w not so gd grades in gp nids to go for such workshops?i do feel tat my lousy grades in gp has deprived me a lot..
went to sch for an academic briefing ydae..there wasnt much additional info given during the briefing, so it'd haf made no diff if i had not went..i act sprained my ankle on my way there when i was walking..i haf no idea i could haf sprained my ankle when i was wearing track shoes, not heels, while walking..no one would haf believed this..pple are all laughing at me when i told them this..its still swollen now..and painful too..
现在已经是八月了。这也意味着我可以离开我的工作。工作的这八个月,我认识了不少好朋友。或许是因为我们都感同身受,也一同经历了一些风风雨雨(哈哈,似乎说得太严重了), 更巩固了我们的友谊。工作的这段期间,也不断在抱怨着管理层是怎么地在剥削员工,但,我们还是选择了回去帮忙。当时不断想着可以怎么脱身,现在终于解放了,却又回去了。。或许人生就是这样充满矛盾的吧。有些人大概会认为我们疯了,但我不得不承认,我工作的这几个月,快乐的时光的确躲过那些被她们骂的日子。认识了一些尽心尽力、怀着对教育有一番热忱的老师 (我是打从心里的敬佩他们),当让也有一些浑水摸鱼的,以及让我莫名讨厌的,还有同甘共苦的知己,和凡是有空就会下来跟我们聊天的 auntie..我学到了不少东西,也意识到了人心的险恶和社会的现实。他说得没错。。不要被人欺负,也不要太单纯。有些人看起来表面上对你很好,怎料却在背后此你一刀。好的,我会牢记在心。。不管怎么样,我还是坚信世上是充满温情、充满爱的。
