Oo I nearly forgot! Yesterday, I went out with my cell group and subzone for games! Well the most memorable one was the most disgusting one: captain's ball. At first it was with just a volleyball, but later on it carried on to a raw chicken ._. 

For a start, the chicken flew to be and *SPLATTT onto the floor. Then I stared at the chicken wondering how to pick it up. By the body or by the legs?! Then by the time I chose legs someone else ran up and grabbed it like a ball -.- seriously at first it looks perfectly fine! Until the chicken takes flight and experiences a crash landing. Then it gets worse and worse. By the time a few goals is scored, the chicken looked like chicken chop. Maybe that's how they make chicken chop? :P

In the night, I decided to watch the F1 night race! It was good.. Well my KS Bull GP book was beside me on the sofa enjoying the cars zoom by 61 laps around the Singapore night race circuit which looked like a mega jail with all those road blockades. But oh well safety comes first as always. 

Didnt expect Hamilton to crash out though. Damn! Mark webber sure was aggressive on the track. His car had contact with hamilton as well as the force India car I think. In the end the Lotus Racing car caught fire while starting the last lap making the total number of cars to be out at 6. Wonder why lotus wanted to continue to try and finish the last lap when the engine caught fire halfway on the 60th lap. 

One thing is for sure, I do look like a panda now! I haven't been ably to blog for quite some time, reason being I'm really caught up with life now..actually I think im just caught up with studies.
 
I just finished my GP exam, it's general paper by the way. Just a more antagonizing version of English Language, but ironically I prefer writing GP essays than english compos. Reason being its more of trying to convince the examiner, rather than just stating what you know. 

I did the question on 
"we have no choice but to exploit the environment." what Is your view?
Ha when I first saw the questions, I was like crossing out all the questions except for the environment. O.o took the advice on not doing general questions so that left me with less choice, since general questions can be dangerous. Crime was out because I never like it and will not touch it, family questions were weirddd so yeah! Just kept to environment. 

Couldn't stop sneezing in the hall! Was sitting close to directly under the air con an I could feel all the cold breezes coming out. Next time, im so gonna bring a jacket!

last wednesday, we had interhouse sports carnival, and BYRON ROCKS! even though i seriously hate yellow, cuz it just looks utterly weird on me, but still i love my house! xP

congratulations to all the byron contestants who bagged a medal home last wednesday! for me, i participated in tug of war, as Chris told me he wanted to challenge me, so i gladly accepted the challenge! he was in Polo house though :P green house. sadly to say, i didnt get a chance to go up against him.. cuz even though he is really really dam strong, his team just wasnt good enough. it was a 10men tug of war and for a start, both sides required to beat the opponent in best 3. :)

starting, i had no idea how the competition was gonna be like. like was it gonna be tough? physically enduring?

true enough, the houses were really strong! X.X the first house we went up against was Darwin. they were pretty strong i would say, the match lasted for very long cuz both sides were spamming strength and stamina equally, so the rope didnt move -.- like it was just moving back and forth, back and forth. extremely burning for the muscles! especially my hands as i held onto the rope as tight as possible. after a long and gruelling challenge, we finally won the first two matches, which means we were able to run for the semis, for third placing and above! that match against darwin was the most tiring one indeed. the guys in front of me and behind were all biting to carry on and bring glory to our house and we managed to surpass the first obstacle!

well onto the next one, the match against nobel. this time, we were fighting for third placing. the loser would be third. well there are six houses, but some just didnt have the manpower to compete, so they backed out.

nobel was the fastest match for the whole of the men's tug of war competition. we beat them in just under 20 seconds! well this was our strategy. starting part: 1,2,3, go! we pulled all the way! really spam to the maximum, everyone working together as a whole team as we got to build better rapport with one another during the transition of matches :) and we won! just within 20 seconds! when we won, we just started to jump for joy! all the emotions just poured out.

well 3 minutes of rest time was over, and we were vying for first and second placing against Keller. gonna be a tough match man! afterall, we used up quite a fair bit of strength. once it went off, we begun to hold on defensive for a few seconds to test out their power, then we went all ahead and pulled! well till we were a little worn out, Keller begun to pull us back, and we nearly lost! my legs took all the brunt of the pulling force man :/ afterall i needed my arms more. so just as we were being pulled, once again, for the last time, we shouted and cheered ourselves on, unwilling to lose to any match at all and pulled all the way, till we reached the qualifying mark, we still continued to pull.

The rope tension loosen and we let go of the rope, we have won! :D the whole team went around each other, slapping both high fives to one another, the feeling was just so powerful! Everyone felt so tired, so worn out, but yet we know that we have put in our best, and have definitely earned that shiny gold medal of ours! :)

nevertheless, i definitely gotta thank God for allowing my muscles to heal in time! 2 days ago, i was gyming damn intensively, causing all my muscles to ache, till 1 hour before competition started, i drank up a packet of Milo and guess what? i was good to go! so yes i now definitely have lots of faith that last minute prayers do work! xD God is always there to help, its a matter of asking, and how sincere your asking is :)


here it is, my good hard earned medal of mine, couldnt have done it without Jesus and my fellow tug of war strong teammates! Byron rules!
