Today's the much anticipated JTS's execution. Ok, maybe much anticipated for most, but not as much for me? Because it was a little last-minute and and chaotic for the planning? But never mind, it turned out perfectly fine and nice and I think the seniors enjoyed themselves, which was the best reward for all the hard work- accomplishment. We were supposed to meet at 1230 in school in PE attire, and I only woke at 1150. I was late, but it got worse when I wanted to print the proposal for them to refer to if needed and the desktop lagged. Thus, I only managed to get there at1310. They were having lunch at the hawker centre there, so it wasn't that bad. I didn't have mine though. After that, we went to Pasir Ris to prepare our stuffs. A group of people was at Mat's house to prepare the Tang Yuan, a smaller group buying their presents, and our group did the logistics and prepare some game stuffs. Theen, Fang, Zen, Crystal and me=) We strolled there from the train station. I thought it was nice walk, though few agreed and some even complained=P We decided to play a while at the playground. It was really a while- like 10minutes, before I went to help Zen and Theen with the water balloons, and Crys follow
ed closely a while later. It was fun filling the balloons. My first time using that pipette-sucker-like thing to fill, and yet I grasped it well. Being in water is always the most relaxing and all the time the best place to be. I love beaches, but today ain't that high somewhat.
Zen stood out most because he worse long pants- the school one, something no one would wear to a beach, and definitely not a casual wear. He got his pants really wet by the way.
When the seniors came, it was the start of the show! We had this water balloon captain's ball which apparently was a chaos. Half the balloons we prepared were already smashed before the game even started. Eventually, it only escalated into a water bomb session where everyone smashed everyone. Amazingly, nothingness still took 40 minutes despite all the mess. After that we had this silent library thing and I was like the in-charge. Actually it was me and Shiyan but since she did the cards already, I thought I might want to do the briefing which was bad. I don't know why but today was just not a 'briefing day' for me and I stammered and all which was really bad. Though in the end, it got better. But that was not important. We had our dinner at the beach. That really cut off a great portion of ME, if I were money. Nevertheless, the experience was memorable. I'm beginning to like the beach more. My all-time favorite venue, despite the constant threat of getting wet. I didn't, don't, won't really mind though. I had this seafood baked rice which was nice! Yum yum! Then I had the desert, 3-flavored sundae.
I had coffee, chocolate, and vanilla ice cream. They were nice too, but desert was never my stuff. The presenting of the fake present was awkward. I could sense that theywere like so excited, but when it turned out to be just a pair of socks, for my case it's only a sock, I saw disappointment. Haha, I didn't really know how to face them after that. It was really bad, even when I knew it was only a fake. My direct senior is good! She got me a billabong pencil case, something which I need and wanted for so long=) Like it a lot! Thanks yea! But that only made me feel worse! Lol. On a lighter note, there was this marriage going on by the beach. The groom was driving the motor boat on the water with the bride behind him. It was really nice, but a little off what I've aspired mine to be like. I told you before, didn't I? And ya, it changed a little. I realise that all, if not most, girls like simple weddings don't they. Zul said that, and I think the girls agreed too. Opps sorry, I overheard=P That aside, I'm able to tie knots with cherry stalks, knot to be exact. Successful trials included Zul, me, Wanning, Ashwin, and Gelin. Saw people trying that numerous times, but this was the first time doing it. Really nice, felt like I was kissing the cherry stalk=P Haha, the double knot was hard though. Never managed to succeed. Then it was the surprise. Held Zul's hand to guide her there. Seemed a pretty long journey, especially when they are so blinded. Took around 5 minutes I guess. I fed her TangYuan, something which contained much memories for the 15th and 16th Alpha. Had great fun playing the sparklers, I can tell. Picture will tell the rest I guess: It was a great day I admit, but when things bring back memories, nice ones particularly, and when you don't possess them anymore, it's hard to enjoy, much less have fun. To be frank, I didn't have the best of time there. Beach, sparklers, ice cream, baked rice, night sky, stars, and many many things. It's really hard to let go, perhaps impossible. Nevertheless, am glad that the seniors enjoyed=) 16th and 15th Sports captains
