Day 55

Yallow

Once again I'm back here blogging. A few days ago was my PAE orientation and my parents flew here to pay me a visit/business trip at the same time. I'm so glad they came, I'm not really that homesick anymore just that I'm glad they're here to talk with me instead of using the plain old Skype/handphone. They wanted me to go home this March holiday but surprisingly I don't feel like going home anytime round. But if I miss this holiday it'll be another 3 months. But what the heck? I just came back 3 weeks ago during CNY. During that trip I got to take pictures with many relatives. It's just that time then I realise everyone is growing up/old. An uncle of mine who always love cycling around found out that his legs are weakening down and couldn't pay any of his friends a visit during the festive CNY. He's the one who took care of me during my young age while my parents aren't free. I love him just like family even though we're not blood line related. 
When I got back to Malaysia during the trip I found out a sad truth, I'm pretty glad I made a step into Singapore's education, many of my friends who aren't in National Service are still dreaming their precious life away. If I didn't come over I might as well be one of them. Lucky me!
About orientation... It's a heck loads of fun. When I got there on day one I kinda knew I wouldn't have my name on the list. Due to some arrangements errors... When I told the organising councilors another Malaysian scholar (Asean), James. He told me that just go into a group with less people but i chose a group with more pretty gals... But it turn out that 5 sec look wasn't really accurate I ended up with a group with weak players and emo's(which I totally don't get their personalities, I guess?). My OGL's are twins Rita and Sheena, both of them look 99% alike so... I had a lots of problem cooperating with who is who... And the funny part was 10 out of 10 times i get the wrong person out of a probability of 50/50. Walao... But out of my OG4 members we still have some great team players. They played hard and tough even we're short by 4 players at many games we manage to tie down and eventually won many mini games! They're just super! And I'm happy to have them as my teammates.
But there was a mistake I did during the first day that i had to suffer for all three days. I didn't manage the people who volenter for orientation night performance well. We drag and wasted a lot of time just planning the whole thing. And as time passed all of the people get bored and wanted to back out. Sadly they did. I was very depressed not knowing how to make a come back after such a incident. I couldn't laugh/ smile well for those who talked with me. But it turn out just swell, thanks to my best buddy Livert. He saved the show with a few guys in our O Family, they performed the Boulevard of Broken Dream by Greenday. Wooo
