2nd Jan 2007.
The Earthquake outing at Swenson's was a disaster. O.o
T^T I guess, I messed up. Only 6 people was able to make it, out if 6, only 4 actually turned up. iunno whyyyyyyyyy I went through with it, because I had gotten a significant number of favourable responses. Somehow, they ended up busy, or sick. Heck, even I wasn't able to go, due to mum's toothache. I couldn't well leave her at home now, could I?
Anyway, I had initially thought that there was 6 ppl, so for me, it was sufficient to celebrate WX and TY's b'dae which we had not. Unfortunately, only 4 ppl, 2 of which were the b'dae girl themselves. So yea. I had sent out 23 smses, getting only 11 in return.
I'm so sorry for both Kai and Mintos, for causing them the extra trouble.
It was serisouly last minute to include the cake. Now I owe them both favors, which I have no idea wat....yet. O.o haha XD
I think I'm losing my touch at organising. And perhaps, I'm getting rather tired of it.
I would send mass smses to everyone, and while most would answer, it kinda irks me that the rest can't be bothered to. Or sometimes, extra people would pop out, and when queried about their lack of reply, they would say they ran out of credit.
So tell me dear, why am I wasting MY credit informing everyone then they can't even send ONE miserable reply?
I dunno, I really don't. It's at times like this, I feel that I'm being taken advantage off. And believe me, I can and will snap back if things get out of hand.
I think I'm washing my hands at this whole organising thing. I will only do it if I really want to go out or merely invite a few buddies to hang out with.
Because sometimes, enough is enough. For me.
I have newfound respect for my parents for making the effort to be involved in any of the 3 family gatherings(yes, I actually have 3 families...somewhat), turning up for hospital visits, going the extra mile to deliver things, distributing extra goodies. For friends, families and even colleagues.
4th Jan 2007
PY has asked if I wanted to go out with her. As since her new sem is still a long way more before it starts, whle mine iwill right around the corner, I figure we might as well make the best to it soon. She wanted to go to redbox, in which I haven't been like almost 2 years. And that was because I was tagging behind some college mates. XD No I have no clue how or where to start booking. Apparently, so did she, so we both had to do a bit of research (this is where internet comes in =P)
It was suppose to be a movie outing earlier, so I had asked Reiki along, but somewhere that night, PY wanted to sing karaoke. haha XD And so did I, yups. I totally forgot about Reiki's parents, because I assumed she could make it. I'm so so sorry, Reiki. I will be more careful next time, dear. *huggles*
In the end, I had to grab either TY or HP, since they both were free, and the only ones I figure could make it. TY went with me.
Our initial 3 hours went up to 6 and a half hours. O.o PY has gone home after 2pm, so it was only TY and me. hahaha XD I guess we almost had our voices gone hoarse. u.u
Note to self: No membership card needed for booking. Extending is a bad bad idea, it causes twice as much! D: Cheapest rates at from Mon - Thurs, 11am-2pm slot. Plus it includes lunch. So much more worth it.
6th Saturday
First Ko-Ku saturday of the year. We have new St John members to bully and bug~! Ohoho!! XD Hp and I got stuck with teaching the adult members. Apparently, there's this new emphasis on ko-ku, hence there was a lot 6th formers. So yea.
Darn it, the new syllabus is so long. O.O For one, I have to start digging out info from both the book and AFA notes too. nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu. YL was a dear, and prepared a set of notes for us beforehand, thank goodness.
Both JY and Ay was around to help us out. My voice was hoarse so it really helped a lot. haha XD I guess, teaching seemed to me kinda like presentations. Which I kinda enjoy. A bit. >w<
Some feedback which I got was that some of our voices was a tad soft. Note to self! And theories are so so boring.....why on earth are we even laarning about aftercare and disposal....? -.-
We were suppose to cover topic 1 and 2. I got dupeeeeeeeeeedddddddddd. The afternoon session had an announcement the day before stating that ko-ku was up to 9.30am, in which all of us had no clue, but apparently the 6th formers were pushing us to stop, stating time contrainst, tuition and stuff. so we did. With only topic 1 covered. *crash*
And here we were thinking of extending the inital time of 2 hours to 3 hours. Teacher is not allowing us to extend and keeps insisting we finish the syllabus for the exam. That it was our priority to prepare them for the exam. hence the lack of games and other more fun stuffs. waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Anyway, I think we'll make it voluntary for the extra one hour. She says it's okay if it's voluntary. Playing games and interacting makes it all the more fun. =P I've told the board about it, we'll see if it works out. XD
The whole registration was a tad messy, I could see poor PY and Ay running around O.o And I suppose I kinda made things a bit worse, because I had no clue they had yet to register....-.- oh well....
After which there was a short DEC meeting regarding the revision of the admin handbook. Seriously, that book is super old, like before my time even. We never got around to revising it. hahaha XD So anyway after that, HP and I hanged around.
Oh oh, and played random games. XD With only SA, YL, Ay, H, HP and me. It was nevertheless more fun than the whole day. ahahaha XD Hanging around last does have a few ups.
