ahhh.. this weekend was so amazing :) i really enjoyed myself immensely and i'm seriously on a high. a really exhausted high, but a high nonetheless. on saturday, i attended paul's sister's wedding and it was so beautiful. she looked so pretty!! and the church was gorgeous! the only downside to the day was that paul's mom came to me and asked, "iris.. ni zhong le hah?" then i almost wanted to cry. thankfully, esther said that i still looked the same. so i'm quite happy. but it's quite scary.. :( i need to lose weight. should have taken part in the standard chartered marathon. HAHA. i think until now i still wouldn't have finished the 42km :) by the time i got home, it was already 330 so i decided not to go for alumni. then cheryl called me and told me we needed black cloth, so i rushed down to spotlight to buy some cloth then i came home and i had a bowl of vegetable soup with tofu for dinner. no carbs!
on sunday morning, i went to church, then after that i came home to prepare for the csa christmas party then met paul for lunch in town. my stupid brown bag was full of stupid plastic bags that had all kinds of little nicknacks or however it's spelt and it was so heavy. i was also carrying another paper bag. and i took a train down to ntu alumni club at buona vista and the thought of climbing up the hill irked me, but in the name of exercise! i decided to go conqueor the hill. but then i found a short cut :) so heck the hill. :D i thought i was late!! i reached around 230, and we were supposed to reach at 1. in the end, marcel and becks were the only people there. nick zheng came slightly later, so i was helping marcel inflate the balloons that we threw around the room and we all burst quite a few. then i did the sash for the pageant, and i was cursing with every stitch i took, because the cloth was 2m long, and i had to hem both sides to prevent fraying and i was so pissed because it was taking forever, and there was other stuff i had to do as well. -.- thank God for becks who helped me out with the hemming, if not i would have ripped the whole cloth apart. to make things worse, i thought i had lost my handphone, so while i was frantically trying to sew up the sash, i was also looking for my handphone, which happened to be in my bag. stupid me. the party went quite well! :) and it was really enjoyable being with everyone. i was a bit sad, because i couldn't really enjoy the whole programme, because i was running around for quite a lot of the evening, but it was a very rewarding experience, and i'm really glad i could help out with the event. :) i must admit that i couldn't wait until the party was over, but now that it is, I wish it wasn't, because I really enjoyed myself and being with all the CSA people. :) after the party was over, they got a DJ down and people were just dancing in a circle around the dance area, and it was slightly weird really.. :) then after that, Polly and some other girls dragged Vanessa and me into the circle then everyone else started dancing and they played it's my life by Bon Jovi and it was so fun because during the chorus, we were all jumping. I really enjoyed it because no one was drinking, no one was smoking, and I knew everyone there! :) so it was such an enjoyable evening! after that, i popped into the kbox room and i wanted to sing ben xiao hai but then they were closing the club already, so we had to go off. :(
after that, Vanessa, Cheryl, Rina, Joel, Hazel and I climbed into the back of the van while Iggy and Alex sat in front and it was quite a bumpy ride back to NTU. I crashed Cheryl's room and I felt quite disgusting because I didn't bring a change of clothes. Anyway, after that, Vanessa, Iggy, Cheryl, Rina, Alex, Joel, Nick and Geri went to Geylang for supper around 4. W ewent to Lorong 9 for beef hor fun. After that we drove around and ended up going for dim sum after the hor fun. sitting in the back of the van was so fun though!! we were all on the floor sitting on newspapers and talking and laughing and making so much noise. :) after we dropped Vanessa off, we went to Bukit Panjang to drop Nick off. After taht I drove back to NTU. It was quite cool driving on the expressway at 6am because it was quite clear and traffic wasn't bad. and the best part was that i didn't get lost!
haha after that I slept over in Cheryl's room and the two of us just passed out on the bed around 615. Then I woke up at 9 and felt pissed and went back to bed. Then I woke up at 12. I wanted to go take a shower, but I didn't bring any bath stuff, so I wanted to ask Cheryl whether I could borrow hers. Then as I as I was taking her stuff, she suddenly bolted upright in bed and I was like what the hell.. :) and she looked around and asked me whether I called her. hm. :) I went to bathe and then we cleaned up her room. Ok I didnt' do much cleaning, just helped her move the vacuum cord around haha. :) Then Tiong, Jun Siang, Cheryl, Geri, Iggy and I went for lunch at can 16. Then we went back to Cheryl's room and just talked there waiting for Iggy to finish his meeting. Then I found pi pa kao all over my bag because Iggy didnt' clean the bottle properly. Moron :)
ah such a nice nice weekend. Thanks to all my dears who made it what it was ;)
