I figured that some laughs are in severe need in times of stress like this before the common tests. Thanks to my sister for showing me these videos and making me feel like smiling while mugging for math. Please watch them. You won't regret it!
From the 5-8 June, I was at NUS Eusoff Hall, participating in Singapore Model United Nations (SMUN) 2007, with Mel, Shihui, Gha, Peixin, Bingxin, Huijun, Gerard, Jem, Andrew etc. NJ people! Part of the Historical General Assembly, Mel and I represented the Federal Republic of Germany, discussing about the crisis of Vietnam's invasion of Kampuchea!
However, despite how fun the debate was, with the whole Soviet bloc walking out and then gracing the front page of the UN Torch (a newsletter), the most fun event was the starting of the FAM! The Food Aligned Movement for people who kept munching on snacks and thinking about food almost all the time! Consisting of delegates from Angola (Shihui, Peixin), United Arab Emirates (Bryan!), Italy (Dear Jerrick), Kenya (Victor), Venezuela (Sophia) and of course Mel and I. We went out of the conference to the toilet, but soon met up with each other to steal GUMMY SWEETS (Haribo) before entering the discussion room again. And of course, we went to eat supper together, tea break together etc. FAM is so superb.
UAE is wonderful! Cheryl from Poland too! Mel, them and I had a mugging session together late at night, while the rest were 'Polar Bear', which we joined later till 2 am.
There were loads of funny characters like Myanmar, Sri Lanka and more, which made our sessions so happening.
SMUN was wonderful, despite inevitable hiccups, so I guess this must mean I need to study harder, so my results are good enough that its safe to go next year. Maybe to NTU MUN, or HMUN (I hope!)
I have just realized that counting sheep to cure insomnia is total lie. I counted up to sheep 320+ last night( or morning since it was like 12+), and it did not make me feel sleepy at all. Rather, it made me more alert as I had to make sure I was counting in sequence, for I realized I went 28, 29, 40, 41... Maybe I can't sleep because I had taken a 3 hr + nap in the afternoon, same as mel, who sms-ed me while I was busily counting sheep in bed. Just realized that I may be taking my common tests a full week before the rest due to my participation in the SYF Opening Ceremony, which will be held during the week for the CTs. One week less for studying. Crap. I need all my free time to study math, since it is my weakest subject. I hate numbers. Except, maybe money. just kidding. I hate counting money too.
SMUN. Streetfest. SYF Opening Ceremony. PW. Math VA. Common Tests.
I am rather confused for streetfest. I keep changing genders. Sometimes I'm dancing the guys' part, and at times I'm not, so during practices I just stand there like some blur bimbo, forgive the pun.

Went to watch Reverie III, a dance concert organized by TJC to support Alex! Alex had some thick metal chain, which was so funny! I think that their lighting was fabulous. It added so much feel to the dances. After the show, I was starving so went out with Wanzhen, JiaTeng, Calvin, Rachel to eat!! After eating and talking, it was way past my curfew so I had to cab home so as to not make my grandma worry/get mad at me. I AM AGAINST TAKING TAXIS. UNTIL MAYBE I START WORKING. I am so broke.
News: 1. Gladys turns 17! 2. I have the permission to bring my younger sis to the movies! 3. Not watched TV for the past few days.
