Games Day '09
[ 8:32 PM ]
Today was awesome!
Class 4/5 '09 won 2nd for Netball and Captains ball. To prove it we received a certificate which will be hung proudly on the back of our board, once it's put up and all.
Before Games day started, we learnt an aweosmely cool dance for warm up. It was the same guy as before and gosh, JOEY YOU MISSED OUT ALL THE FUN. The dance was easy to learn and it went really good until one starts to be more aware of one's surroundings. DANCE like nobody's watching and you have no idea how much fun you can actually have.

Games Day started with Badminton. We lost but at least we did our best. The first(and last) match was against 4/5. Lotte-chan swapped with Hui Ying for doubles so Hui Ying and I were singles against Tennis players(the Tennis captain and Tennis reg). Thing is, if you're good at Tennis, Badminton is as easy as pie. Apparently, they know how to make pie, ne?
First up was the singles match. Guess what? I was up first and gosh was I a nervous wreck. My hands couldn't stop trembling. It was so bad that I couldn't even pick up the shuttercock properly. Not onlyly that, 4/4 went like hit, hit, smash and y'all know how much I fail at smashes.
In the end, Hui Ying was our only hope but that hope was crushed when she lost too.
Scores:
Doubles and singles(Hui Ying): 7-9
singles(myself): 6-8
Oh whatever. If we actually practiced, I bet we would have won yo. :D So, BEWARE. 4/5 IS GOING TO OWN GAMES DAY NEXT YEAR! *insert evil laughter here*
Netball was extremely intense.
The best match was with 5/1, although we thought that they would be more aggressive after we won the Basket ball match just before the match against them for Netball.
It turned out to be a really friendly match and we had tonnes of fun playing wth them. Even those watching had their fair share of fun. ;D
At one point of time, Chelz cheered Lotte-chan on by saying that her Japanese idol was coming to see her, so I shouted, "AKANISHI JIN!" and the others echoed "AKANISHI! AKANISHI!". You how WAs(wing attackers) aren't allowed to step into the semi circle, no? Well, she almost fell in upon hearing Jin's name. HAHAHA.
The match against 4/4 and 4/1 were the most intense of them all. The match with 4/4 were the semi finals while the match with 4/1 were the FINALS! :D
Our players were exhausted from playing match after match after match(one disadavantage of having a small class) but we cheered them on like hell to the very end(one very good advantage about having a small class: we bond easily! ;D). 4/4 was a little rough, but we won!
As for 4/1, they sort of figured our how we play and strategised. They won, but whatever. ;D You gain more from losing than winning, and we did. Our class was more united than ever and we got a great work out too! Not to mention the awesome experience.
To end off Games Day, we shouted a the usual three cheers for 4N classes 'cause they rock. Oh yeah. ;D After that we had the results (4/6 won BASKET BALL! :D) and stayed back for the final session of Rainbow Corn Genetics.
Mine was pollinated.
OH THE JOY._.
Headed to Pizza Hut with Lotte-chan, Cheryl Tan and Mich to grab a bite. Cheryl tan and I didn't had anything despite feeling hungry. Thing was, that it was around evening and if we were to have a proper meal, there goes our dinner.
Mich LOVES cheese. A lot. So we, being bored started adding loads of cheese onto whatever Mich was eating. From the pan pizza, to her bread sticks. We added so much to the point that it seemed like it was snowing cheese! By the time we left, the FULL bottles of cheese was down to half. HAHAHA. Mich got diarrhea later that day. Who wouldn't? XD
Once we paid the bill...oh. SPEAKING OF THE BILL. The three of them were hilarious. They kept counting to make sure they gave the right amount/ received the right change. Mich was a typical Singaporean. She even wanted to get back ten cents from the Pizza Hut-ers. HAHAHA.
We got a little thirsty and went to KOI to get ourselves something to drink. Lotte-chan and Cheryl Tan were so fascinated by the machine used to shake the drink(I too, had the smae reaction but kept it to myself). When Cheryl missed the time her drink was being shaken, Lotte-chan exclaimed, "It's shaking!" when it was shaking her drink. It was seriously a LOL moment there.
It was like watching little kids in a toy store. XD
Said our 'good bye's at the MRT station. Took the bus home, showered, downloaded Never Again and Jumpin' Up, had a delicious dinner, and fell asleep on the sofa. Woke up at 11pm and went up to hit the pillows. IJ Fiesta tommorrow! Like FINALLY! :D
