My group was assigned to help an old man paint his entire house and clean his toilet. When we first entered his house it was extremely clean and well kept. Then the second thing i noticed was
OMGWTF 60" FLATSCREEN PLASMA TV!!!!!
Yeah. So anyways we started moving all the stuff around and cleaning all the yellow off the walls (you'd be surprised how much whiter the wall looks). Then we started painting one half of the house and getting paint all over our hair. Half the group then abandoned us for lunch and came back 1 hour later when we were almost finished with our haf of the house.
About 2 hours later we were done and packed up all the brooms and mops and buckets. Then we were about to leave when....
"Eh what about my kitchen? You never paint my kitchen!!"
Crap. Move everything back again.
--------------------------------------
Eventually my group managed to finish our assignment adn we went over to help the other 4H group.
Big mistake. The house was a massive bedbug infestation and i started feeling itchy after stepping into the house for 10 minutes. So being the extremely dumb person i am, i koped the can of insecticide, opened the bottom of my shirt and sprayed about 1/4 of the can inside.
Instant relief.
Then 10 mins later my chest erupted into a fit of pins and needles and remained that way for the next 5 hours.
Ryoji broke a kerosene bottle in the guy's house too. Had to evacuate the premises temporarily.
-------------------------------------------
Block Party!
At first we weren;t supposed to eat any of the food provided there cos apparently its for the residents only. So i could only stand there and watch while they all enjoyed an 8 course dinner.
Then a few resident ponned the dinner, so there were many empty places. Which most of the refurb people promptly filled up.
Martin sexy dance! (he's the one in pink).
And halfway during mr law's dance he broke his dancing stick in half accidently lol.
Went home at 9 with an extra goodie bag and a fragment of the aforementioned stick, feeling itchy all over due to leftover bedbugs.
Felt extremely satisfied and useful that day, even though i came home sweaty and tired. Maybe i should do more things like this in the future.

Today i went to Dreams@Kolam Ayer to pack goodie bags for a block party.
Actually half the time was spent trying to explain to the guy there that we came down for that reason. And we also played 1.5hrs of pool while the guys there attempted to contact other guys to find out what a bunch of RI guys were doing in their RC.
Shao tong's pool playing vaguely reminds me of fencing. But at least he was better than who i shall refer to as the walking oil reserve.
I am really looking forward to the refurb tomorrow. Will someone bring a camera?

Tomorrow i will be going down to kolam ayer to spend my perfectly wonderful afternoon packing goodie bags to give to old people at a block party i helped organise but won't be getting any free food out of.
First i converted many people into halo fans and addicts. Now i shall do the same with The Big Bang Theory.
Wolowizard!

Going to have to go down to lee kong chian reference library to kope a book on organometallics.
I also have to stay back on friday to go to some random cc in Kolam Ayer to pack goodie bags for a block party i won't be invited to. Then on Saturday i'm going to help some 58 year old uncle paint his house and clean his toilet.
The things we do to maintain RI's public image.

While playing Halo earlier....
some dude: Wow this game is awesome some dude: its just like world war 2 some dude: rockets nades machineguns
I don't know whether to laugh or cry. So instead i kicked his ass for the next few rounds.
According to russ wong, that is the story of my life in a comic. I feel awesome and popular.
Looking at the bio syllabus i have to study makes my brain want to explode. Mugging it actually made my brain explode.
I shall have to get a new one from the $1.99 shop. I hope they're on offer.

I want at least one of the following to be played at my funeral.

I messed up the Chem O selection test yesterday. Bleh.
According to siak peng i also messed up my chem test today. Double bleh.
Hopefully siakpeng will moderate up. But that has the same possibility of him hooking up with a girl by next week.
I have until next monday to complete the reflections and personal statement, in addition to plently of eoy muggings. Life is Good.

I've said i hate miley cyrus's music. But that's only because of her f*cking annoying voice.
That said, i actually find this song enjoyable.

There is also the definite possibility that i failed the Chem O selection test today. And another chem test tomorrow, plus chem reflections and personal statement due as well. Time to mug.

With bio portfolio done, i am now faced with a new whatthebuck assignment due on wednesday.
Its called the RA application essay. And the chosen topic is "Science for humanity".
I shall have to squeeze out the remaining brain juice left in my brain with my awesome Blendtec blender. I hope there's enough left after i spent a large portion of it writing the bio portfolio reflections.
"Oooh brain smoke, don't breathe this!"

I suddenly need to learn to smoke essays. FAST.
Archery lesson is cancelled tomorrow in lieu of rgs eoys (WTF MAN) so for the 3rd sunday in a row i have nothing to slow down the mental decomposition that happens everytime i pick up my psp and mutter vaguely to myself:
"need.....more......gil......"
Graphjam.com is too addictive. I need to start doing bio portfolio now. Then write a 500 word essay on "Biology for humanity".
I can almost smell the sex jokes coming.

Stoning at home for several days in a row is accelerating my mental decomposition. I have to find a way to get out of the house, though i think going to school just cos i'm bored is not a healthy idea.
Bio portfolio is due on monday. I tried referring to my previous one, only to find that i failed it and it wasn't worth the 2 hours spent digging it out of a pile of files.

I was reading bash.org a short while ago and found this.
so you know those peta campaigns, "I'd rather go naked than wear fur"? it's a pretty horrible idea when you think about it "stop eating animals or we'll keep showing you pics of hot chicks all naked like" yeah, brillant plan there guys
I think i might go inviting random people to steak lunches.

After one long year siak peng is reunited with ms denise again!
Yes people, once again it is time of RI-NTU immersion!
This year's one was very short and sweet, not like last year's where we were dragged down almost every week for 5 weeks consecutively. This year's topic is also a lot more understandable and suannable.
Facilitator: "the human kidney is actually the best water filtration device, so we try to make our filter membranes similar to the kidneys."
Me: "We should have a water purification plant with kidneys hanging everywhere and pipes running in and out of them."
Facilitator: "Errr we might be short on kidney donors."
This morning i was also recruited by martin to help out some humans club thing. I was supposed to follow some group around for a 3 hour long amazing race, but that group mysteriously failed to turn up.
So i stoned in the lt with martin for 3 hours playing plants vs zombies.
Yes. PvZ. Boredom does wierd things to your head.
And i just realised i have to go back to school everysingle day of the september hols. What a merry holiday.

Went for the RAGE 14 concert yesterday, and i have to say i enjoyed it very much.
Cos it was so damn amusing how many mistakes were made.
Diablo rojo, delwyn was completely drowning out jiheng with his amplified cockups.
and the sec1s screwed up greensleeves. How do you even screw up greensleeves??
I face a long week ahead with nothing to distract me from mental decomposition.

And i enjoy laughing hysterically at every mushy or sad scene.

I think there are only 2 ways to write a blog: write truthfully about what happened in your life or be random and exagerrate and fill your blog with random stuff.
I guess only those who have friends actually giving a sh*t about their lives can ramble on a day-to-day basis.

Turns out, the most useful piece of immunology notes I have is a photocopied textbook appendix. Oh the irony.
I was the first to arrive, followed by the NUShigh ppl (who tao-ed me), then some RI ppl (who tao-ed me) followed by the rgs girls and the rest (also tao-ed me).
Most of the day was spent doing wierd retarded stuff like singing the school song and Still Alive at the top of our voices in the middle of a crowded Macdonalds. And throwing french fries at jarret and his girlfriend.
I saw zhixin and shi ping from mayflower yesterday too! too bad only zhixin recognised me.
Ka shing also led us on a stupid wild goose chase to the foot spa on the other side of the road for a reason i cannot remember.
Waiting for more photos to come up.

While browsing on facebook earlier this morning, i saw this written on ewan's wall.
"Ewan looks like Aang."
