#3 The List of Awesome Things in 08
1) Getting off braces and on retainers
:D I am officially less geeky looking.
2) Getting the title "Letter of The Day" in the Newpaper for one of my letters sent in.
Hey, I'm sorry, but fame makes me feel good. PFFFFT.
3) Watched a movie with my adorable cousins.
They are all young and adorable and incredibly intelligent for their age. Although, blessed with intelligence, that makes them stand out in the crowd. And hyperactive too haha, LOVE them especially when Amani jumped in shock while watching the Spiderwick Chronicles. Lmao, I find that incredibly endearing.
4) Getting an A for French after getting a D in the previous sem.
Which just goes to show how awesome Karen Thibault is. Oh she's my current French teacher. She's hilarious :D
5) Being the first Student Leader selected by Mr Chang to go to Langkawi for free.
After a very strange interview, of course.
6) Going to Langkawi itself.
I cannot begin to describe how awesome it was. It's like, the best, experience, I have ever had, in my entire life, ever.
:) I GOT TO DIVE, WITH SCHOOLS OF FISHES AROUND ME. AND TOUCH CORALS AND SEAWEEDS-
now, seriously, believe me when I say awesome.
7) Getting contacts.
SOOOO much more less geeky. I actually look normal now.
8) Fish vomitting babies on my hands.
I've blogged about this before. It's embarrassing and not exactly awesome. But it sure is memorable :)
9) Participating in the skit for PolyXperience in NP.
Acting in front of about a thousand students. Multiple times for different batches of students. :D Scary but absolutely exhilarating. And my other skit members were hilarious lmao. Loved every second of it, eventhough I forgot my lines once (but no one noticed hehe).
10) The Singapore Fireworks Festival
Got tickets to see it from Josh the ever awesome. :D:D:D:D I freaking love fireworks. Eventhough it pollutes the air after, but I still love it to bitssss :)
11) Successfully crashed coursed with a very weak Pri. 6 student. He managed to pass PSLE in the end.
To every question I asked, he answered,"Mas Selamat."
Mas Selamat is so dead if I ever see him.
12) The fun I had in every camp or big event in NP
What can I say? My friends are awesome.
13) Debate Interpoly's
I liked that we did better this year :) And that our speaker points are pretty high. Eventhough we didn't do as well as I thought we could. (For those who know, yes, I am ignoring it. Hehe.)
>.>
14) Halloween + Nikk's Birthday + Stayover at Adam's place with Ben
Awesome two days, hilarious near death experiences, Sean completely losing it, shaking my ass, freaking Sean's doggy, Buddy out, laughing/ freaking out about a tranny in the bar, listening to Cats in the Cradle (?) some funky band who won Live The Dream I think, watching Nikk dance with a stranger (part of the birthday surprise), freaking out about ghosts in Adam's house, snacking and late night instant noodles. :D Should totally do it again xD
15) My birthday surprise
When your awesome friends surprise you with a huge ass brownie-cake with your name on it and being so thoughtful as to come bearing gifts, you can't help but love them. :)
16) Going to KL/ Malacca with family
I have yet to blog about this, lmao, it's so hilarious really.
The aboriginals in Malacca went," Babababababa eeeeeeeeee!!"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
17) Christmas parties + Group 1 Potluck
Heartwarming :) Not to mention, Shanya's dog is hilariously cute hahaha.
18) Occaionally meeting up with Cass/ XT/ Sheryan/ Fasihah/ Teri/ Oggy
Because I miss them so!
I know the list is pretty short compared to The List of Shit but honestly? these 18 things gave me enough happy juice to last me the entire year full of all 50 shits on The List of Shit.
And I am immensely grateful :)
