Nobody Taught Us to Quit;

Hello! it's been a while since i blogged. I'll start from where i left off.

Thursday (10th Jan)

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU
for all the wishes, advanced wishes, belated wishes,sms-es, hugs, handshakes, pats, presents and cards! I appreciate it and you guys really made my day(: (:

Birthday cake from parents(:

Friday (11th Jan)
Had guides and afterwards, went to bedok corner for birthday dinner with family. Tried something new. I ordered chicken alfredo. haha, turned out to be almost identical to spaghetti.

Saturday(12th Jan)
8 student leaders and Ms. leong went for a seminar regarding Youth olympic games at Suntec convention centre. The PSLs (me, alena, afiqah & kashmiira) met up first before meeting the prefects (Joy, michelle,jolene & wai han).

It was pretty cool with many inspiring videos. The objective i guess is to let everyone know that even though spore is a small nation, she has the capacity to hold a large-scale event such as the YOG. Yep, the facilitators were very enthusiastic too so kudos to them(:

We had refreshments after that in the adjoining hall. There were drinks + chicken pie.Oh, and potato chips. The pri sch kids were rushing towards the potato chips =.=

Pretty blur pic, but it's sposed to show the crowd

The many potato chips (free!) Imagine 20+ tables of this

After that, afiqah and I went to tamp and waited for eunice. We took a shuttle bus to IKEA! (: We had to get our gifts for the sec1s since we're in publicity dept. and tadaa..we ended up at ikea. Haha :] We went to the hangers area and packed 41 packs of hangers into those huge yellow ikea bags(pic of hangers below). Not long after we decided to change our gift..so we placed back the 41 packs of hangers. ahaha..tsk. I bet if people saw, they'd look at us weirdly.

Hangers!

We took bus 107 to cliffor pierre(which was undergg renovation), went to fullerton hotel, Spore river, esplenade, victoria concert hall. Also, we walked past the supreme court and padang. It was fun fun fun(:

I rmb once we were walking inside the fullerton hotel and we were quite amazed as there were people having high tea we just oggled them. Mdm audra said "Girls, if y'all act pathetic enough they might throw you a sandwich" hahaha(: Oooh, and we went to check out the toilets too. Yea, i know - pathetic. It's a six-star hotel afterall.
