Melvin gave me this book for my birthday :-)
Honestly, okay, honestly even though the plot seemed really interesting, I felt that I might not like it because I've been reading adult novels for so long I thought I would find teenage novel really boring.
Then one night, after I've finished reading all my library books I thought, hey why not, since Melvin bought it, it must be pretty good.
So I started reading that night.
And I didn't put it down until it ended.
That night, I slept at 1am the next day.
Hahaha it was so good!!!
The girl in the story reminds me so much of myself.
How she would get lost in the story for the whole day she would be so distracted, how her mother has to scream at her to go to bed, to stop reading, how she falls in love with the characters in the book.. It's all so relatable.
Only, lucky for her, her characters came to life and mine did not. /sulk/
Council farewell
Lunches with Mdm Haslinda (our principal) and the Exco yesterday at a sweet little cafe called Badoque.
The service was good and so was the food! Although they were all in gigantic portions.
It was a little awkward at first but we started to warm up to one another.
The Exco gave opinions on how to improve the school and we talked a bit about prom. It was relatively pleasant :D
I like mdm Haslinda.
After that we went to school and it was farewell party time!! It was a themed party so everyone was all dressed up :D
I had a great time. I'm sure everyone had a great time.
I can't think of a moment I wasn't
laughing.
Okay, yes, except during the video montage, well it was touching (':
Here's Marcus in his (bathrobe) Japanese suit thingy.
We played a few games like the broken translator
HAHAHA IT WAS SUPER HILARIOUS I GOTTA TELL YOU GUYS ABOUT THIS OKAY.
So the sec 4s stood in a line and the first person was suppose to pass a message (which was in Japanese for the first round) all the way to the last and that person will have to go onstage and recite what he heard.
I was standing near the last person so the message we recited was
"Li gong si mi"
("What did you say" in hokkien)
And we're all like heyyyyy that's pretty easy *smirk*
But it turns out that the message was some JAPANESE phrase that translates to
"I love to eat sushi"
SO.
Apparently Chhay Heng decided that the message was too difficult to pass and he oh-so-conveniently changed it to "li gong si mi"
HAHAHAHA ohhhhh gosh.
Then another round was a French message and some joker in the middle of the line decided to add in a "muah muah muah" at the back of the already wrong phrase and poor justin had to go up onstage to do the kissy sounds, garbling out some words that was something like
"Le France le andik le romantique muah muah muah"
Isn't andik like, Malay?
I almost died laughing.
After the games and performances, we all had a token of appreciation from Mdm Halilah.
Oh mdm halilah, She smiled and thanked me and shook my hand on stage.
Tell me, how can this not be a great day?!
I was actually so scared that she might glare at me or something :P Jillian and I then had a chance to meet our Training committee and gosh, I'm really quite sad to be leaving these kids (or as Jillian would say, "my training baaaybieeeees")
Took lots of photos and eventually we all left school at around 11.
Boy, it was a good day.
And even though I've never really felt like I fully belonged in Council, I really truly love the TK student council.
Yeah.
