"First Day" of Holiday

So... Today's the true first day of holiday, because the last few weeks were spent rotting away either in camp/school/some LT/whatever. Guess it was quite mundane, apart from a small First Aid Competition Plan and some Chinese homework, both of which were completed in quite a short amount of the time. The rest of the time was spent on reading, piano, reading, piano, anime, anime, anime, cards, reading, piano, you name it (facebook >.<). And that sums up my day.

Stein's Gate is awesome :) I approve of mad scientists, because I am a hybrid musician/scientist/mathematician/melancholic, so I'm technically a bit bonkers :P

Yay.

Meh

Today is really *insert title here*. Pretty uneventful, and I spent most of my time drilling my piano skills, watching anime online, playing small games on Facebook and the like. I also had a ~1.5 km run-dash-walkathon so that I won't fare too badly for NAPFA next year (yes people you must start early).

Well at least I have a lab session, a photoshoot and CCL to look forward to next week :/ On a side note, I must start work on Maths and other competition preparation tomorrow.

じゃね！

Sudden Inspiration

Merely 8 stanzas this poem shall be. (It's not poetic. It's more "technical".)

The Veins of Countries

The clear precipitation,
Falling from the grey yonder,
With a 9.81 acceleration,
Blends into the blue-green meanders.

As the meanders swirl,
Escaping to the rivers' cliffs,
Forming eddies which twirl,
Ending on the plains of pity.

LAST DAY OF SCHOOL

So... 'twas the last day of school and I wasn't even in school. I was at VOX. Anyway, it turned out that some fun things transpired in school while we were away :/ (We won champions for VOX even though we were perhaps the most unenthusiastic, stone-faced team among the rest of the schools. Still quite happy with the last day, with the "sight-seeing" and so on, while video-taping people on the side)

Yep, so I conclude my third ACADEMIC (note the academic, I'm not done with other aspects yet) year in Raffles Institution with somewhat a bang I suppose, and so, no regrets there. What I do hope for in the next year (Gap year) is, with luck, a successful allocation of activities that I prefer, instead of being pushed into uninteresting activities due to limited vacancies.

And with this, good luck :)

VOX

So... VOX! What is VOX? It is this reporter cum newspaper writer cum show host workshop cum competition, and VOX stands for Visual, Originality and X-Factor (Nope not the American style).

It was quite fun except that it was super long, and long duration things inexorably lead to... you guessed it, boredom. Well, I learnt some stuff, had fun using a better camera to take pictures, listened to presentations by a newspaper writer and a DJ on being a show host and being a newspaper writer.

Sure sure, it was enriching, opened our eyes, gave us new insights, the usual answer. But still, it became somewhat mundane towards the end. Well, at least the 'tea' break was timely.

Let's hope the second day is more fun :/
