Thursday, July 28, 2005!
today is the 38th Student council's FIRST pubstunt. and i'm in it! haha! :) a very insignificant part..but i did enjoy myself! :) despite having a very small part, i was still rather nervous when i was standing at the podium. embarassing but true. :)
i was comforted when i saw stead and shifu in the crowd. haha. familiar faces. stead kept smiling at air. ahahhaa. but his smile made me less nervous coz i know that no matter what happens, there will definitely be these 2 audiences. thanks so much guys!!

listening to the CO-CHOIR song now. oh gosh. i cant concentrate on blogging but i shall TRY. so forgive me if i dont make much sense. haha.

there was banner painting today. i guess huilin's speech during GM this morning really made an impact as quite a number of councillors came down to help out. thanks so much guys! esp the ones who are not in teachersday comm. :) without u guys, we wouldnt be able to finish the banner today!! :) council oei!! :)
i think charlene dear constantly mistook me for the cloth as she repeatedly painted me. God bless her poor eyes. *revenge is sweet* :)
mr menon was such a dear. haha. he kept coming over to peep at the banner and encourage us by telling us tt the banner was very nice etc. MR MENON ROCKS! *i wish more teachers could be like him.*
the process of painting today was actually rather interesting. maetu wanted to save money, so she bought this thin white cloth for the banner. as the white cloth was not WHITE enough, i came up with this crazy idea to paint the entire backgroud with white emulsion paint. hahah. i had a rude shock when charlene and maetu actually went along with the idea. yupp. so we started that tedious process...with it ending with me bathing in turpentine. :/
i really hope this banner works out. :)
there's still the backdrop to do. gosh...*wipes sweat* there we go again...
the teachers better appreciate our efforts. *threathens* haha.

poor jiali is sick today. and yet i bully her by making her pospone the meeting. ahaha. sorry dear, but ur health comes first. :)
PLS PLS PLS take care of urself!! if u dont, i will whack ur butt. wahahahah.

oh yah. there's GM today. my 830s are history. but well, like what Huilin said, we have to sacrifice. it is true. :) today's GM was a wake-up call to all of us to stay bonded as one council. i really hope tt at the end of our term, we would be much more bonded and united, just like the 37th! :) we WILL prove all cynics out there wrong!! go go go council! :)
i got praised for my backdrop today. although abit paiseh, i'm really touched and happy. thankyou council. i needed that encouragement to keep pushing on. thanks chrissy for cheering so freaking loud. ILU!!!
and thankyou Huilin. :) we really needed that speech of urs. :)
