Been there, done that. Haha.

Actually, I can honestly say that I had no idea that I was going for a RIMUP event, all I know was that I was only going to Convent to support SIGS's netball and handball teams. And not forgetting to meet the one and only Green Cheese after so long =)

Besides, who in SIGS that's a third former won't find a chance to escape from the afternoon session and skip all those planned activities for something more fun and interesting instead? Do not even dare to deny that very fact, third formers! XD

So, the day started out with many complications in school. If you're from Convent and if you had noticed that some of us were wearing red and the majority of the supporters were wearing lavender, that is actually the biggest problem out of everything else. But, I think I shall not mention anything here, least it goes around and gets added with unneeded extra information (=

Here's a short recap of the day's events in my point of view :

Reached Convent, then went on to do my job as a supporter and scream my brains out for the handball team first. I must say, Convent had a strong team, but SIGS did a good job as well =] The two rounds went to Convent and we had a break after that.

Fiddle, meddle, doodle.

Went back to the field and hung out, then I saw Geetha! Taking loads of pictures =D Actually I wanted to say hi to her earlier, but my brain was lagging and I couldn't process what to say to her beforehand, so I just let things happened by itself XD Sorry Green Cheese, my bad D=

Then, the netball competition started. Three words : It was FIERCE.

Ended what seemed to be a very quick match and we were asked to go to the hall not long after. Listened to a short speech by Puan Khadijah who's the representative for another teacher and proceeded with the prize giving ceremony. I am quite impressed with the Convent spirit. Really.

Munched on some lunch then saw Green Cheese again for another picture, this time with Vena Cava aka Veena. Lol.

Went back to school with Hanifah singing her heart out to some Malay songs. She's a great entertainer XD The ones she sang that really made an impression till I could still remember the names of those songs are "Suzanna" and "Ayahku Kahwin Lagi". At least, I THINK those are the titles anyway. Haha.

The snapshots of the day. Major credits goes to the fabulous Geetha and her awesome photography skills ;)





What I'd learnt from today's event :

1. There's a reason why we had to walk all the way to the other side of the field in Convent on the cemented ground. On post-rainy days like today, Min Wen and I made the mistake of letting our shoes sink into the very fragile muddy patches of soil. Which sums it up to THE ENTIRE FIELD. Lesson learnt!

2. SIGS has a limited number of chants and cheers. Time to innovate and be creative hopefully.

3. It's NOT a good idea to shorten the school's name to just GS in the respected cheers. GS is short for Girls' School in Sultan Ibrahim Girls' School, and note that Convent is also a Girls' School. We were indirectly cheering for both teams! LOL.

4. GS could also mean Goal Shooter in netball language, so besides cheering for Noris who's the GS for the SIGS team, once again we're also indirectly cheering for Convent's GS! So much for trying to lift only our school's team spirit. LOL.

5. Miss Green Cheese is not only photogenic in her pictures, but even prettier when you meet her in person! Not like that's unexpected =P

All in all, being a part of this program is all worth it, even though the word RIMUP seriously does brings back not so fond memories. Hahah.

Which reminds me. Geetha, had you even got started with your amazing soon-to-be masterpiece, the one of a kind Green Cheese? Why isn't there any news of it at all? x] It is already post-PMR XD

Coming up next, Prefect Day 2008 ;D

It’s not an English name I came up with for myself. My mother is indeed a genius in coming up with such a splendid name for me. Although my name has been unfortunately mutilated (nicknames are excluded) over the past years, full credits to my mum for my current identity.

I’m certainly looking forward to changing the word ‘patient’ to ‘survivor’! If you’re interested to read about my journey in battling lymphoma, you can click here to proceed to my cancer blog.

Ironic, I know; this blog is mainly pink instead. I like all colours actually, but I find myself having an affinity to the colour green. In fact, I can safely say that green is my soul colour.

Languages, music, fashion, photography, cultures, dance, literature, writing; just about anything, really. The arts truly intrigue me, especially thought-provoking pieces. Of course, the arts play a major role in inspiring me in my everyday life.

I don’t have a favourite genre – I read any book that interests me!

I am a trained right-hander from young, since apparently being left-handed is considered ‘wrong’. Basically, I’m ambidextrous! No wonder I find it easier to air guitar using my left hand than my right; I simply relate to the arts than subjects that deal with logical thinking better, too.

A stubborn Bull I am, too. I abhor being rushed. I prefer doing matters at my own reasonable pace. I don’t particularly like changes in my routine, but I can adapt quite easily. I’m a very practical person as well. I enjoy the beautiful things in life, but that doesn’t make me shun ugliness at all. Besides, it all depends on how one perceives beauty. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

Still am, but I’m slowly learning to accept imperfection into my life. Also, I’m doing my best to erase the many expectations I have so I could one day master the art of letting go and freeing myself to simple happiness and joy.

Compared to before, I’m less dramatic nowadays. Language-wise, I attempt to blog flawlessly in English and speak proper English online with my peers. Call me a Grammar Nazi all you want, but that’s how I roll. I only converse in perfect English in formal situations and during my dramatic outbursts. Otherwise, I’m absolutely capable of communicating like the average Malaysian!

It’s a different issue altogether when you’re forced to learn for the sake of getting good grades, though. Other than that, I’m open to new information and knowledge anytime! I especially would like to learn more languages and pick up new musical instruments.

…are just some of the things I would love to do in the near future, hopefully!

the basic rules apply. If you respect me, I’ll respect you. If you happen to be someone who has low EQ skills, I’ll try to be tolerant but my patience is definitely limited. I’m observant when it comes to human behaviour. I’m a person of many opinions, but I don’t voice them out unless I trust you enough; I’m very honest and candid when it comes to the people I can trust. Even though I trust very easily, not everybody can prove that they’re all that nice. Hurt me, and I’ll only defend myself if necessary. Hurt my family or my friends – you won’t find me holding back.

Is there anything else you would like to know about me?
Throw me your questions and/or doubts here! I honestly have nothing to hide, so you’ll expect the truth and nothing but the truth.

It’s only how I phrase my answers that you’ll have to be aware of.
Or…you can click hereto go back to reading!
