Last Day..

Reality has set in...3 hours after lesson ended, i have finally realised that today is the last time we will be together as a class. Staring at an empty class, i wonder if i have treasured them enough; if i had treated them well; if i had spent every second of my time with them well. 16 weeks have passed and now, we are changing classes. We may never see each other so often again and god knows if we will drift apart.
But it is all too late now..all is left is just memories and some photographs. As the silence sets in, i feel weird and akward, as if this is not my class. It has never been so quiet before. hmm..looks like i'll just have to appreciate my class next semester.
However, today's lesson was fun and interesting. We had to draw something that made a significant change in our lifes and we shared in a circle. It became more of a "thank you" session and many many people cried. But still, we managed to say what we wanted and because of this, i want to say a big thank you to tou faci. THANK YOU!!
I have never enjoyed school so much.

Sisters' Island Recce

Woohoo..went to Sisters' Island today for a recce with the trekking IG. It started off badly, we stepped on a hornets nest and them this big swarm of hornets came charging at us. 2 hornets decided to bug one of the trekkers and "explored" her head; totally refused to let go. All of us were afraid of swatting them as dey may decide to sting so...one trekker decided to smoke to get rid of the hornets. And guess wat..it worked.HAHA.(Maybe i shd start smoking again ya..jkjk)

Yar and anyway after dat, we had to "perform surgery" to remove the blood and numb the pain. I've never perspired so much on a trek before man. When the second group ahead finally returned, one of them also got stung so it was round 2 of "surgery". I can never be a surgeon..i was perspiring so badly sia..water fall.

I never knew the island was so small, we covered it in abt 45mins? So we basically did 5 things; recce island,chase hornets away, do "surgery", rock climb and laze ard. Muahahaha!!!

After dat, it was all pure joy and laughter and fun, fun and more fun. We swam, picked shells, sun tanned and basically R&Red. Oh ya..i also rock climbed togather with 2 other trekkers. It was damm scary lah..the rocks could just dislodge by itself and you can fall down lor. But it was fun. I learnt how to rock climb properly and break my fall.
