Yesterday was a busy day. In the late morning I went to tutor my P2 student for the last time (so sad right) at Toa Payoh. Then I was to meet Rachel to kind of help her with some maths, outside the Toa Payoh Library.
They were having this sort of fair/basar malam (though in the day) - the typical kind that has Ramly burgers, lower quality takoyaki and fried stuff, and other random clothes and stationery tools. So I got myself 5 pens for a dollar, as well as two pocket files to bring to Australia.
There was also one booth selling CDs, though it looked mostly chinese, like CNY songs or old chinese shows. But then as I was waiting, Super Junior's Sorry Sorry started playing! And following that was SJ-M's Super Girl, wahahaha!!
Anyway the library was too crowded (and I doubt the people there would appreciate us talking) so we went to Toa Payoh Hub's Macs to eat my lunch and study.
I'm glad she asked for permutations and combinations, because those are easier to remember, than say complex numbers or statistics. Differential equations required much checking of formulae for integration though!
But we got politely asked to leave (because you shouldn't really spend so much time studying at a fast-food joint) and moved over to KFC where now she ate and we had a good time talking! Mostly about university, studies, and relevant stuff. Many thanks for her encouraging words about being a doctor!
After that I made my way to the condo where the AGM was to be held, though it took me a while to realise that the aforementioned function room was the room labelled 'Multi-Purpose Hall'.
I helped Amanda with her mini-banner (that wasn't used in the end!) and blowing balloons and stuff! The food was good (though I didn't like the wasabi prawns), and the company was excellent! Clarissa, Eunice, Jocelyn, Yuting and I went walking and found this greenhouse place with aircon and pretty plants and water with fish inside! It was really picturesque!
Also, Eunice has recently gotten into K-Pop! And she likes Super Junior too! It's always good to know fellow fans!
We came back to find the rest playing Pictionary. They were separated into 2 groups - by whether your year of graduation was odd or even. The evens had less people than the odds, because Xuemin's year had a lot of people, and Xingqun's year as well!
Thank goodness I didn't have to draw (can't draw to save my life), but at least I managed to guess Linus' 'Mona Lisa' picture in time! It still baffles me how Cheryl guessed 'Lady Gaga' from Chee Jun's drawing!
They also played Queen of Sheba, and I think the funniest part was when Gabriel and Yong Jian had to try saying the alphabet in the shortest time! Xiang Ting was laughing like mad!! Another funny part was when they wanted someone from each group with 'the weirdest face', and Eugene (that terrible boy) told Shamini to just have her normal face!
After the games came the more serious part, like introducing the new committee members/understudies (Eunice, Sheena, Eugene) and SLs (Sheena, Clarissa+Eunice, Gabriel, Jiahao), and discussing things like communication avenues and the upcoming concert's musical direction.
Then when it was over I was going around taking photos with people, eating more honeydew sago dessert, talking to friends I hadn't seen in a long time, etc. We finally left the place at about 10:30, and I'm glad Sheena and I had 2 straight buses home.
Sheena has volunteered to come over and "watch me pack", rather than help me, but I think I'll still enlist her!
Thanks to all the blogs i referred to (countless) for html code help :) (esp. cyn' and sixseven)
