I am a Busy Man . .!

It's been a busy week for me. . . Tightly packed with activities. . . I've been depending on coffees to survive past the lectures and tutorials. . . The coffee method works almost perfectly on me, i went to school feeling quite energetic everyday but. . . I knew my health isn't going very well, in fact, it's like getting weaker each day. . . because i couldn't get enough rest. . . Sleeping just 5 hours a day. . . Haiz, long for the chinese new year holiday to come faster. . .

Just came back not long ago from Chingay training. . . I am the lead motivator for sector 2.4, all thanks to Jeremy's recommendation. . . There are 3 lead for my group, including Joanna and Angela. . . I know Joanna since last year's teachers' conference and Angela was the easy-going and friendly girl i just know today. . So my group, i guess it wasn't too bad for a start. . . The girls were more enthusiastic than the guys. . . The same case as yesterday's ODAC training. . Are guys today becoming more like me, so shy and quiet. . I wasn't exactly a good lead, i mean i am a bad lead. . I didn't manage to make the J1s really come out and be enthusiastic. . . Maybe i don't have the type of leadership, but i am trying hard. . . Kept telling myself that i must be very thick skin in order to lead. . . Yea, so i am trying, need time to learn. . Therefore, i was like depending on Angela to do the leading all the time. . She's quite good at it, since she's an OGL too. . . At quite a few occasion, i was really at a loss at what to do with the group when she was not around. .
Anyway, it has been a good day so far, too bad that i had to work later, hope it won't spoil the day. . .

Friday. .
ODAC training for the J1s and 2s. . As usual, physical trainings. . . Ran on the road race route, the girls' route. . It's damn short, no wander they can finish it so fast. . After that we had 'games'. . The games was a term used to make everyone happy, it's turned up to be a tekaning session instead. . Nevertheless, i got the chance to mix with some of the J1s. . It's the usual case, girls were enthusiastic, guys wasn't really that. . It so amazing to see all of the girls being so attentive to Mr Tan long long talk everytime. . Mr Tan was such a nag that it made me quite bored and restless. . And yea, they celebrated the birthday of me and Jun Xin after training. .

Thursday. .
Got a serious stitch while doing the road race during PE. . I ended up walking all the way because the stitch was really painful and it kept coming back when i run. . Eventually, i finished in 38++minutes, what a disgrace. . !

As usual, played soccer after PE. . except that we got a match with some of the J1s. . I played very hard because i knew we wasn't their match, given that only me and Liang Shi can play in the team. . The j1s i thought, they were quite good, at least compared to the likes of Si Jie Wai Gang etc etc. . In soccer it's like this, if you know you are not as good as the opponent in terms of skills technique etc, you must be more aggressive, more hardworking, if not it will be as though you are sending your team to be slaughtered. . .
So, when i really fought so hard for the team, i had high expectation, so there came my attitude. . I expect all to perform and if they failed to do so, i will give them a pierce of me. . That's what happened to Si Jie and Andrew. . I am sorry for that, but that's me in the field. .
In the end, was it a draw or what i'm not sure. . But we surely didn't lose, because i fought so hard. . .

Wednesday. .
Went Chek Jawa with ODAC. . In case you don't know where or what is it, it is an area in Pulau Ubin where it has been specially retained for it's rich diversity of lives. . It was a wonderful experience there, a real eyes-opener. . Lotsa of things you never see before in your life, not even in the documentaries on TV. . Species of crabs, anemones, starfish, sea-horse, snails, worms. . It's amazing, you can even find them at places where you never expect. . Just like how it so surprise me to see that such lives exist in an urban city like Singapore. .
However, i ended up a guilty party by the end of the trip. . Accidentally stepped on an anemone and the whole thing just suddenly sank into the soil as i retrieve my leg. . I killed it, something so beautiful and rare. . Felt damn bad. .
The whole trip ended by 7pm. . Went to eat with the guys until 8++pm. . The journey back pissed me off. . . Waited so long for buses. . Bus no.2 came after a 15-20minutes wait, bus no.89 made me waited 30++minutes and bus no.27 kept me waiting for 15minutes. . . The worst part was the part when i waited for 89. . Only board it after the second bus came, the first bus flew back my stop without stopping as it was full. . Waiting at such a ulu bus stop with faces that gave me thoughts of bad characters was already a terrible experience, worst it made me wait so long. . .

I shall stop here, no more energy to carry on for other days. . Later still have to work, and tomorrow, there's surf and sweat, so damn early. . . 7.30 must report at the beach. . It's a busy busy week. . .
