August Sevens

Godammit I missed the whole of August here rofl.

August happenings:

1. Prelims!
2. Olympics
3. Cross Country
4. National Day
5. WCG/Coscon
6. Natsu Matsuri
7. YamadaRyosukeomg*fangirls*

7 topics for 7 wonders of the world, 7 deadly sins, 7 colours of the rainbow, 7 days of the week, 7 the lucky number, 7 basic necessities of the Chinese, 7 continents of the world, 7 seas, and whatever miracle 7s that you can think of.

ONE

Prelims was... okay I guess? Though the chemistry paper was surprisingly murderous and the amath papers were frustratingly tideous. Hell, even my tuition teacher who could finish a university maths paper in 20mins took 1h 45mins for my amath paper 2. Chemistry was.... uh, they totally got me. It's overloaded with electrolysis, which I'm weak at. HOW DID THEY KNOW.

What I'm happy with was that they scheduled for prelims to end right before the sep hols. THANK YOU TEACHERS/STAFF/PRINCIPAL/VP. At least I don't have to be like some friends who had to study through the hols cause their prelims weren't over yet.

TWO

Olympics? I only watched the opening ceremony like, twice. Cause it really was gorgeous, until I heard about that fake singing, fake fireworks thingy. But if you ask me to judge from what I see, then hell yeah it was awesome.

I didn't really watch much cause it's right smack in the middle of prelims. Usually I caught swimming when I switch on the TV. Which I think is, well, kind of a ridiculous coincidence cause everything water leads to me.

I'm a pisces. My chinese name has some water thing in its meaning. I'm a water monkey according to the chinese zodiac. My element is water. And yeah I love swimming, etc etc.

Congrats Michael Phelps for winning 8 golds. Now the teachers are using him to convince us that 8 distinctions are possible.

The closing ceremony was... I dunno how to describe it. Besides the cute little kids on the drums, the rest of it looked like a cheap concert.

THREE

Cross country was quite a waste of time. As ever.

Every year I had to wake up at 5 to report in time at ECP like a rooster. And then we'll sit on the dewy grass like a herd of sheep. And then run 5km like a bunch of horses. There are the racing horses who sprint all the way, then there are the horses that are used for tourist sightseeings or to be chopped up and sent to the zoo. That's me.

Just the right year for them to announce that no game consoles or mp3s are allowed. I was just about to spend my waiting time playing Apollo Justice, and run with my mp3 on. Ngh.

They don't even have the milo truck this year!!!!!111oneone

FOUR + FIVE

National Day was in conjunction with WCG/Coscon at Suntec.

I spent the whole Coscon day with some of the KHR team members. Beffy was Ken in business suit, Daikon was Chikusa in business suit, Snowi was Haru in uniform, Danz was Yamamoto in casual, and Reifes was Lancia in business suit. With the giant ball which we overly abused.

We did practically nothing but chat, lame, run around, identify people, lame somemore, getting Beffy and Daikon to do ChikuxKen... yeah.

We stayed for quite a while after the event was over. I went to watch fireworks at Marina Square with Broken, Haruto, and gang. It was painfully crowded. Thanks to Elle and another guy who were cosplaying the Sims, we didn't get lost. Basically it's just casual wear with the green diamond thing floating above your head when you select the character.

"When you're lost, follow the green floating thingy."

The fireworks were awesome upfront. I managed to snap a few shots, including some giant abstract projections they made on a building, but am lazy to post them here :D

Go ahead, brick me.

(copied and pasted from DA journal cause I'm lazy like that.)

Natsu Matsuri was as crowded as last year.

Worse of all, it was RAINING. So they moved the Bon Odori dance to the sports hall instead of the usual stage in the open field. The first thing I noticed when I saw the wet stage, was a huge teruterubozu hanging on one of the steel poles. I loled. LOL.

If you don't know what a teruterubozu is, you might wanna do a bit of research ;D I shouldn't spoil the fun.

I get to try some makizushi, candy apple, ice cream, ramune, and my usual booze: Asahi. Yeahhh nothing better like a cold can of 6% alcohol on a hot summer day.

I'm a minor.

For the whole event I kept switching between cliques cause I bumped into countless number of friends there. Oh oh my two cousins were there too. They happen to be in Singapore cause one of them needed a spine checkup so I took them to the event.

It never stopped raining. So we almost had no place to sit for the entire evening, till we spotted some people leaving the table and quickly rushed forward to snatch the seats. Yeeeaaaahhhh dryness. You just love taking up seats that others have cleaned for you right? Right? :)

I didnt participate in the Bon Odori. Partly cause my feet hurt from wearing unseasoned, squeeeezy getas. And I figured the sports hall would be super crowded and I just respect personal space. So there. Oh and I was in yukata. Rather hard to breathe or move about.

The event ended with me and my friends fishing up water balloons.

Let's see if things will be more fun next year.

I wanted to try the vegetable curry!! And get the bread mask!!! Nghhh~!!!

SEVEN

Thanks to my cousins who came to Singapore and brought me the August volume of Animonster, I found out about Tantei Gakuen Q dorama.

AND IMMEDIATELY STREAMED IT.

I was in awe at Ryo-chan (who played as Ryuu) at first sight ohgawd. HOW COULD SOMEONE SO CUTE BE SO COOL.

So right now I'm still stalking him. I've watched all the dramas he acted in (Tantei Gakuen Q, Tantei Gakuen Q special, Furuhata Chugakusei, Sensei wa Erai!...) except 1 Pound no Fukuin which I'm gonna watch soon after I finish watching Engine cause Kimutaku and Yuto are acting in it and Yuto is so cute when he was 13. I stalks him too. Oh and another drama starring Ryosuke, Yuto, Chinen and Daiki will be out after Oct - Scrap Teacher. I CANT WAIT. *hyperventilates*

I've also been watching his concert vids. Especially Perfume and Glass no Shounen cause he looks so... fuaahh~ in a white tailcoat. Oh right I forgot to mention he's from a group called Hey!Say!JUMP right now.

HE ALWAYS DOES STUPID THINGS INFRONT OF CAMERAS WHEN HE'S OFF STAGE AND ITS SO FREAKING CUTE.

I wasn't surprised when he's named Johnny's next golden boy cause hell yeah he fits it perfectly.

Even SMAP and V6 were from Johnny's. Holy hell Johnny's Jimusha really does produce painfully gorgeous and talented dudes. Yes even Kimutaku. He was named Japan's sexiest man. WHY AM I BORN A GIRL. WHY!!!

I think I'm scaring you with my rabid fangirl mode so I'll stop here. I was supposed to watch ep 5 of Engine like 2 hours ago but things keep interrupting me.

ARE YOU HAPPY THAT I UPDATED MY BLOG HUH?!!?!
