Haha this is an idiotic shot of me, hope it didn't scare you too much when you see this!

But it really had been great time spent with the 4-8 peeps Yesterday (all my troubles seem so far away now it looks as though they're here to stay oh I believe in YESTERDAY! :D), quite a mini gathering I must say, with only 6 people turning up in total, but I can't deny I'd great time. At least some catching with Thomas and SK since it has been ages since I've seen them (okay fine the last time is Majestia XXIV). As for the other 3... I see them everyday in school so never mind, haha!

Kite flying in Marina Barrage was totally epic fail because of the stupid kite that they sell over that, we spent 2 hours trying to make it float only realising that it's not meant to be flown that way because according to the Certis Cisco security guard (who happened to be kaypohing around!) that kind of kite is some STUNT kite. HAHA! Picture 4 gay boys trying to get a stupid kite flying. That's us!

(Oh yeah did I mention that the kite has 2 strings attached to it? That's the reason why it's hard to fly...)

Will get the photos up once Thomas uploads them on Facebook or something.

The rest of time was spent talking nonsense everywhere, from Marina Barrage to Manhattan Fish Market @ Plaza Sing... Eating and playing cuckoo guess-the-song-I-am-singing games are quite fun actually :D Camwhoring around with 2 DSLRs was kinda, er, weird -.-

SOMEone just told me that she was such a good girl answering all of Mr. J Chan's questions during Physics tutorial HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

It seemed like the most boring type of outing you can ever imagine but well, I feel that it's really good time spent catching up and talking with friends. I don't deny that not all my friends are cool or interesting or what people deem as 'socially acceptable'... But at least people are more real back then, we don't try so hard to please one another, get into the 'in' social circle, at least people genuinely care for one another, people still do remember that you're not in school and bother to ask where and how you are, and they do so not because you owe them money or lecture notes...

One fine Saturday after TQ, YJ and I were on our way home on Circle Line after dinner. We were talking a bit about friends in JC, and I was thinking about how certain people change as they change environment. I guess I've to agree to this, that in a certain way, as people grow older, they love to gossip about other people behind their backs. Kinda disgusting to see people trying to befriend the others and bitch about them the next minute they are gone. And it saddens me furthermore when that the guys who were aimed at still think that those people who talk bad about him/her are their genuine friends. The thought of it really irks me, but this is how human beings work. So I guess, people in one way or another destroy genuine friendship as they grow up, and the ironical thing is that they complain that the friends that they make in JC (as opposed to Secondary School) are so not genuine. Idiots.

And to those people who don't want to hang out with their Secondary School friends because they THINK that they are uncool or whatsoever, you guys are idiots too.

Haha to end off this post on a lighter note, I went to CGH for NS follow-up medical checkup for the 2nd time. It's a waste of time really, imagine all the time spent travelling there and back (2x 45min per session) and the time wasted doing the tests! Never mind, I'm still a happy boy because I passed Econs for CT2. 37/80, it's an E, a disappointing decline in results but it's okay, I've learnt to take such stuffs much more lightly over these years I guess :)

I've gotten a really cute bookmark (the funny thing is I don't read much) from CYLS Yesterday during Sunday School. It has a prayer on it, I guess it's really crucial for us especially in light of A Levels which we are all ranting about:

"Lord, help me to remember that nothing is going to happen to me today that You and I together can't handle."

And it has my all-time favourite Bible verse behind it. :D
