okay okay so how has it been since i last came here? well, i don't think it's long enough to make anyone force me to come back but here i am. now where should i start on my long wordy report to explain my absence?
Orientation 09 was definitely the bomb! besides emerging winner for every single event - ORA,
MMM,
GMS and FINALE - it was no wonder we were the house champion. like
duhh! PHOBOS rocks man! moments during the orientation were beyond words. i have to say: my
OG rocks my socks! all the
OGLs had a really fun time bonding with each and everyone of the
OGMs. each day was even better than the day before. that night when we went for a really really really late dinner {or what it supper?}, i felt like we had known each other for a long time.
tsk - i should have brought my camera along because now, i have no pictures to explain my experience. but
nevermind, because i am more than willing to describe them to you - only i am not in the mood to do so. the biggest shock to me had to be the finale performance. i was one of the ones i/c of the performance for PHOBOS and to be frank, i had no confidence whatsoever that we would win anything that night as soon as it started. so when i got to know our house was first place for the performance, i swear i was close to tears but no, i didn't cry. (i did break down later on, but we'll leave that out.) and you see, the advantage of being an emcee was that you get to know the results way before anyone else (besides the councillors). when
amalina showed to us the results,
siti and i were holding each other so that we would not be obvious to
show the others that we have known the results.
OMG i must say, well done PHOBOS, well done. and now you can truly sa: SECOND TO NONE.
speaking of the orientation, the days to follow have been interesting enough. i have made some new friends that i have never thought of. i can see some of you saying out loud : "OH
shafienas is now miss popular!" but hey,
i'm still me because even after the many new friends
i've made, there are still 3 not-so-cool souls whom i still refuse to even try or bother making friends with. who? let's not get there. if you know me, then you'd know who
i'm talking about. if not, it's even worth guessing. (oops, sorry if this hurts you who are friends with them - no offence.)
moving on, talking about making new friends,
CCA recruitment went quite well too, i must say.
nurulshafienasbintesalleh must have not been in the right state of mind throughout the entire day. if you know what
i'm talking about, then yes, i am one of those girls infected by
Jannah's disease of acting on impulse. don't worry
jannah, it's not a bad thing, good things did happen. but i still wasn't crazy enough to talk to my hot mama
mia, even though i was just 6ft. away from him. oh well, maybe next time. oh adn thank god, our play went well. good job drama kings and queens!
{sidetrack} talking about
CCA, let's list down some of those
CCAs with my dearest heartthrobs in it:
ICS (oh yes!), RC,
ODAC, oh oh oh and of course,
floorball! {haha, i'm really living in denial!} how
many heartthrobs do i have at the end of the list? that's one secret
i'll never tell. (i told you gossip girl's intern is back for good!)
and did i tell you, although orientation was a blast, i still hate the fact that i had missed so much! since
nurulshafienasbintesalleh is the kind to not skip school w/o official reasons, she felt so lost going to school for the whole of this week. sometimes, it even felt like it was useless for her to even continue to come to school. a few days of missing lessons felt like it had been forever. i was always feeling tired throughout the day, besides the fact that i haven't really switched my brain back to study mode. oh well, no pain, no gain; no guts, no glory. - yes,
wth!
oh and i just want to say THANKS MUCH (pun intended) to those who gave me the wishes and the presents. i didn't prepare any, but as the day went on, i thought that i should have at least got something to give back in return. but oh well, you know i love all of you! {i'll be sure to give you people something on the REAL international friendships' day} and yes, that includes to my mr R, mr mama mia, mr JR. and oh you-know-who. tsk - i should have made a dedication on friday! hmm, i see we've been bold and daring, right girls?
okay, i think you've wasted enough time
reading my not-so-detailed explanation of my absence. and
i'm way too tired to even bother to try and remember what has happened over the week. at least
i've covered whatever that needs to be told. whatever else that i
have missed and not said here simply meant that it's not worth telling you, so you see,
i'm helping you here by being oh-so-nice. okay since
i've started to
MEREPEK,
i'm stopping here. so that's all - adios amigos!
(enter my name here)
