today was fun! =]

went down to pre-camp briefing today, with a seriously deflated morale as the camp currently boasts a horrid gender ratio reflective of our engineering roots. Furthermore, I was rejected my plea to borrow the car for the night, as we had MC gathering at Lionel's house later on. Sigh. Oh well, I ended up late and getting scolded by Pearl again >__<

Settled the administrative issues that forever plagued the committee in and out, and later on went to join the games. THANKFULLY the people there didn't look too sian of the lack of ladies. George made a pretty damned good effort in entertaining/scaring the freshies with his enthusiastic beatings of his neighbours at all the OG games. Yikes.

Anyways, after lunch I retreated down to clubroom to take a snooze...which ended up a nap and slowly morphed into deep sleep. By the time I woke up, the committee had went off to do their filming *which I guess I wasn't in any state to participate in, with bed-hair and all*. Ended up playing Mahjong with Ethan, Ryan, and Nat with minitiles. Hahaa..to date, I can finally, and proudly proclaim that all my wishes and dreams with the MC has been fulfilled, as we have finally played mahjong in our clubroom! Hurrah!~ I can ORD in peace!

Later on, when filming was over, the bunch of us took 2 taxis down to Hougang for our MC Popiah session! Hahaa..its a wonder with Lionel being around, that we have all these wonderful gatherings possible! Everyone sat around the table, had a slice of popiah skin on it, and started their DIY Popiahs...and before long we had people like Siewmun and Yman comparing who made the most professional popiah. I didn't really bother, I just kept on ingesting my garlic-laden blob. It tasted good, so why bother? *I guess I'll make a horrible cook*

Hahaa..after that we settled down for mass games. Ethan introduced us to this really cool Taboo-Charade game that had everyone dying with laughter! Firstly everyone had to write down a noun on 5 separate pieces of paper, and fold it, before keeping it in a container. We split into 2 teams, and had to guess the words on the paper for our team when our teammates were either Taboo-ing or Charade-ing the words out. Frankly, its hilarious when you realize more than one person wrote "Sex" on their 5 pieces of paper. Ethan became the pointing-figure when things like "Lee Kuan Yew", or "Hillary Clinton" got called out, for no reason Junqiang was describing my word *Cock* by saying "Matthew is a...."?

And inside jokes all came in throughout the entire session. We had nouns like "Roti Prata" associated with Sebas, nouns like "Matthew's Girlfriend" popping up even as one of the names. We can safely deduce which bugger wrote those words, but we'll all leave it at that =]

Hahaa, and of course, can't forget how we charaded out "Amy Leo"! She probably would have turned in her grave. =p Oh wells, it really was a good break out with the entire MC from the long hiatus at work..especially with so many projects coming up!

Engin Club, jiayou!!

There's a Hole in my

Sidewalk
I
I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in.
I am lost...I am helpless.
It isn't my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.

II
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don't see it.
I fall in again.
I can't believe I am in the same place.
But, it isn't my fault.
It still takes a long time to get out.

III
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it is there.
I still fall in. Its a habit.
My eyes are open.
I know where I am.
It is my fault. I get out immediately.

IV
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.

V
I walk down another street.
