Guys, maybe we could get a chalet lets say from 23rd Dec - 25th Dec at downtown east chalet...which is sunday to wed....wont be very expensive though..for 3 days is ard $300 for the chalet...so all chip in a bit...the adults chip in a bit..den okie liao...lolx...or maybe we could ask for sponsors..lolx...or if its just the cousins alone..maybe we could split the cost...sentosa is nice also but i think its all fully booked...

Blog Update - Welivewoodlands v2.01

finished a day of mugging at the lib. gosh.. even ying heng finished his exams le lo.. that's so cool. haha.. i decided to take our blog one step further by switching to the new template of the same design. more options added lo. like the poll.

hope the options are good enuff, else can always choose option e and post ur own ideas too. kk, gg out to meet friends for dinner soon.

i think polling is less messy too. btw mindscafe dun have jus ur ordinary monopoly or scrabble though u can play that if u want. i wun recommend it though :D we cld try blabberdash. it's ridiculously funny.

edit: i duno how the poll works.. sometimes it works sometimes it doesn lo. jus try and pray it works if not try again lor.

i think meal can save up lahz... always end up eating quite boring... summore i'm sure u'll will already be meeting wif ur own group of frens... to eat~!! think a simple meal of kopitiam or food republic is good enuff... den we can juz go...

1) k-box...? i dunno... but i'm no singer...

3) east coast overnight? (can play alot of stuff there... soccer, fly kite(night time), frisbee, cycle... but the onli prob is P-O/Parental Objection)
4) get some board/card games and invade ah ma house(or whoever's available to rampage XD)
5) go sign up for some adventure camp together... (not sure if there's 1 that can contain all of us)
6) chalet...?

hmmmz... why is yz also gonna get dumped...? :o yz~!! lets try to run~!! we 2 are the fastest among all the cousins anywayz... doubt they'll be able to catch us even if its all on 2... =p

taking a break that's why i'm here again, hahaz.. cos xiangjing asked me if i had been to the cousin's blog recently ma.. lol! anyway i decided to be a sport and added my own blog link here as well lo, let's keep each others' secrets lo, that's the warmth of being cousins i think. come to think of it i agree with ah en lo, nvr heard of a cousins' blog before too. can talk to me on my own tagboard lo, if possible (u must) keep my blog content to my blog lo. =D

keep on rocking dudes, besides ah en. good luck to the exam peeps lo, and hopefully all these good i am doing will result in some good karma for myself, haha!

december hols, some options i can think of, to add on to ah en's mini list:
1) movie
2) dinner a) swenson
b) crystal jade
c) fish and co.
d) manhattan fish market
e) lau pa sat
f) dian xiao er (causeway point)
g) tao (near plaza singapura)
3) kbox (i promised myself not to go kbox again but well, cousins' are totally out of this world lo.)
4) minds cafe/settlers cafe
5) just hang out at macs.

haha.. would have added a poll here too.. but that would require us to change the template and i dun have time to do so, have to copy the html for our own segments like links and the tagboard.

kk gotta go back mug le. jus vote in the tagboard lo.

At last...

kkay i shall be the next to update since im rotting at home...and everyone's repeating the same qns abt my zhaizhai leg:))

firstly, im back in s'p...
screwed my leg in china, china doc say tear ligament, ligament chip off bone...nid op asap so i ended up in s'p...left ningpo on sun morning... 5 hours ltr reach shanghai aft which another 5 hr flight back to s'p....aft tt got into A&E... doc there did x-ray again...'chipped off bone' disappeared... the doc cant find anything wrong...got my leg into a half cast...today go back for appt...diff doc...says got 3 possibilities...dun understand though...cheem...then ask me do theraphy then see how cux he not sure oso...so im now crutching ard happily without the stupid cast :))

hmm...since ms khor wans update i shall update abt trips,...then we can wait for her update when she comes back...

abt my macau trip...

its supposed to be this 即兴表演 competition lah...like they give each group member their role, khacha! act... ahha...so its fun and everyting...its more of like got a huge variety of games... then we choose and challenge another group who then decides whether for us to play the game first, or to play together...got games like "dubbing" which means a group will have 3 members then each will be given a role by the audience, but onli one of the member will do the talking, for 3 ppl in 3 diff voices, with 3 diff personalities... ahha...and another one would be 2 in a group, A goes out, B remains on stage, audience will decide 1)A's physical feature 2)A's occupation 3)A's relationship with B...after tt A will be asked back in and they will start acting randomly, thru the acting B will try to convey 1)2)and3) to A without being obvious... ahah...so its very based on 默契and teamwork bah...

the competition was really cool..ppl always say go competition is to learn but that kind of feeling has never been present. but somehow this time, there was really this 'go there learn' feeling... and the ppl are just friendly and enthusiastic loh... like everyone just enjoys theatresports and is there for that not to win... esp when groups are acting tgt, in wad is supposedly a "competition", opponents COOPERATE, like best partners with a lot of mo4 qi4, not to win, not to compete, but really just to bring the audience the best of their performance.

china trip...

supposed to be 42 days lah..but i onli went for half... exactly 21 days...:)) haha..so..
yap it was fun...mainly it was sightseeing and universities' professers' lessons...(which are often Zzzz thru-ed except for a few)...and our meals are...really wad u call extravagant...10 course every meal...really huge waste of food...every meal oso restaurant...damn 浪费...

flew to nanjing on 21st oct...basically went to a lot of historical places which are supposed to be linked to lessons..stayed in hotel...then went suzhou...at a sch's tchr's dorm...the 招待is really...WOW kind... buffet for breakfast in a school...but go there sightseeing is basically gardens and gardens...hangzhou..stay in another hotel...sightseeing...not bad oso...shaoxing..one day only...zhenhai...immersion in their sch lah...stay in the students dorm there..this is realli tthe place where u can say we had IMMERSION bah..like realli live a student's life...

their lives are realli rushed i guess... wake up at 6, 6.15 they gotta start morning run le...field not exactly near and they are not allowed to wake up earlier than tt...its realli like wad we watched in a movie when china students wake up, studystudystudy...guess s'p's realli slack in comparison...they hv lessons all the way to 5pm then got other activities...at nite got nite revision till 9pm...morning got morning revision...aft lunch got aftnn revision...so basicalli they gotto rush all the hw they got to do during those periods cux aft 9...they rsh back to dorms, get ready, lites out at 9.30 le.... and its like they shut off the main power...so nth u can realli do like sneak hw to do till midnite unless u take a torch under ur blanket... which is indeed wad they end up doing when they got hw not completed.... aft tt went ningpo...2 days down and my leg got screwed...so ahha..nth much oso...lol...

hmm...i agree... this blog shud not be left to die...so update ppl!! this is a COUSINS' blog...bet its super unique kkay...nvr heard of a coz's blog!! haha..and ya...we really shud have some outing thingy...like our x'mas meal last year...but this time EVERYONE must come de...cannot give excuses worhhh... haha...it seriously feels nice to have activities with cousins rite! ahha...like our long long ago kind of x'mas etc when we were young...so now we shall try some older versions more often!! last year's dinner was not bad...and maybe we shud have some other activities attached and not only a meal?? like go movie, k-box or iceskating(which is now out cux of my zhai leg:p) or wadeva lahh:)) ahha...
