happy national day one and all

yay 43 years already...
ok now let's talk about the celebrations.
yesterday i woke up at 4.30am, did my Quiet Time, then went to serangoon stadium to run 9km at 5am. clocked 47:25. bleagh... i think that's still not up to standard. i want to reach 5min per km. then went back home to take a bath, then went to school at 6.25am. we walked to CCAB to have our celebrations there. but i slept while they were having all the songs and stuff. then i woke up when we had to do the 3 dances but i stood still anyways. until the last dance where we do the CJ mass dance and i partnered wei jie so he spun me around like crazy til i was left sprawling on the floor when the dance was over and not able to get up cos i was too dizzy lol. super fun:)
then met ryan and renyi at j8 subway for lunch and talked. cheang came later with his friends.. then i went to the library with the NY boys. they did some studying while i did some big business in the toilet. then we went to long john silvers later cos ryan needed to eat an early dinner before going for church. then cheang met us again. ryan went to church, so me, cheang and renyi went around looking for a gift that renyi wanted to buy for his friend.
afterwards the two of them went off and i met yiying for dinner. she ate LJS first, when she finished eating we went to S11 foodcourt for MY dinner. haha. cos i want cheaper food:p
we left for church at 6.45pm. it's the first time i've gone for DBS. it was really good! i think uncle alex can teach very well. and we didnt stick that close to the book but discussed more relevant questions which is the best:) i dont like sticking to the book. it's not relevant enough sometimes. from now on i will go for DBS if i can. cos usually fridays i have football and it ends quite late. and the last 4years of sec sch my NCC was always only on fridays and ended close to 8pm that's why i couldnt go for DBS for 4 years. haha.
tmr after church gonna stay at gramma's house for 10days cos mum and dad are going away. i think there's not really a computer there so i won't be able to use the internet for awhile. quite troublesome. i needa pack a lot of clothes. cos everyday i need to wear uniform and pe shirt. most people only need to wear pe shirt twice a week for pe, but i got football trainings on wednesday and fri, plus need to go gym on tue, wed, thur, and run on thursday and saturday. then also need to pack for sunday's clothes, etc etc.. and my boots and shinpads and jerseys and everything. not to mention my bible, QT material, and school books, etc.. etc.. wow that's alot..
