I think my blog is starting to rot. Yeah, I know it's been a while...and lots of stuff has happened. The biggest highlight of the past 9 days was 30th Nov...Grad Nite.

Preparations started a week before the big night. I got my dress and went for a manicure just for the fun of it. I also got my eyebrows plucked, which wasn't fun at all. On the day itself, I bustled to get ready. Kenneth came over at 3 to hang out for a while, then left a little while after my aunt came over to do my hair and makeup. After she finished, I couldn't believe it was my reflection staring back at me in the mirror. I took a few photos before leaving and hopped into a cab to the Intercontinental Hotel. Everyone there looked so mature and stunning...and they couldn't recognise me either. Haha.

The evening began with a dressup game and a scavenger hunt. Both were won by table 3. Dinner started soon after while the nominees for Mr/Miss Graduate were announced. In the end, Farah and Chong Xun took the titles. Other stuff that happened during the night were the distribution of CCA certificates (I got silver), a little dancing contest and of course, loads of photo-taking. The only letdown was the lack of dancing. There was supposed to be about half an hour of dancefloor, but as dinner started late due to photo-taking, everyone was still eating and there was no time. I'm not sure how many people wanted to dance anyway. A couple of guys went to the floor to breakdance though. Very entertaining! When it was all over, most people, including me, stayed behind to take more pics. I came home totally knackered out and went to sleep after taking a quick shower. The night was, in a single word, fabulous. I'd like to thank everyone who came, the teachers and student council for planning the whole thing, and lastly all my good friends who made the past 4 years in TPSS memorable. Thank you all!

Other stuff that happened these 9 days:
- Singapore Idol finals!!!! Taufik won! Yes!!!!!! He deserves it more. I voted for him like, 200 times. =)
-I watched The Incredibles. Great movie! People keep telling me I look like Violet. Really? I do? I think her character relates to me a lil. Haha.
- I watched Veer Zara with Kenneth. It's a hindi movie. It was pretty interesting...but my legs went numb after sitting in the cinema for 3 and a half hours. Then I went to Kenneth's house for a while. Helped clear all the notes...and came across our lower sec class photos. I looked through them for a while. Man, have we all changed a lot! I suddenly became aware of how much I miss being in secondary school already, even though it's hardly been a month since we graduated.
- I watched Kal Ho Naa Ho for the second time. Another hindi movie...this one makes me cry buckets. At least I didn't cry as much as the first time.
-I went to the library to borrow books...forgot how much I like reading. I was thinking about trying to finish all the books in the teenage fiction section of the library during the holidays. Crazy, huh?
Things I wanna do during the hols:
- Go to Sentosa with the eldds members.
- Shopping
- Movies
- Eat ice cream in Gelare and have a TCS (talk crap session) with Kenneth and Ili.
- Meet up with the church gang.
- See if there's anything to do for the youth xmas mass.
I'll add on when I think of something.
Whoa...this post is long...I think I've written just about enough for the day. Til the next time!
