Highlights II

Legion
I must say, I’m quite surprised and definitely quite happy that more Sec 1’s from my Orientation Camp group joined Legion. Now my only hope is that they will stay on… Ian Low is confirmed staying, but people like Timothy Lee, Timothy Oen, Brandon Young, Aloysius Soh… I’m not sure if they see Legion as what it really is… I’ll just hope that they hang on for the moment, till they see what Legion is truly about…

Geog Field Trip
It was more fun than I anticipated, especially cuz I was surrounded by all my good friends… Thanks Wilson for helping us take all the photos (of us, not the plants..) Lolz… I learnt so much, definitely more than if I were to read about it in a textbook…

NCC Training
It wasn’t AS bad as I anticipated, but PT was sorta unexpected, so I decided to pass… Due to my persistent cough that, contrary to popular belief, IS STILL BOTHERING ME!!! So I helped out in Bernard Low’s entrepreneurship thingy… Saw Lionel (202) failing his test =P, Timothy (210) was there too… Took pics of ppl doing funny stuff (NCC Air in an especially weird pose too), Ryan (201) posing for the camera, another one of him lying on a table (hmmm…) but he deleted it… I took one with Lionel too, but my face was cut off… Heck, the camera isn’t mine, doesn’t even belong to someone whom I know… Lolz… We had PT after that, imagine what I would have to go through if I had participated… We were sorted into "syndicates" which we would stay in for the rest of the year… And I would have definitely brought everyone down, but I cheered them on (silently, due to my irritating cough)… Haven’t actually met my syndicate, but hopefully, they’ll like me… (FAT hope, quite literally)…

Passion Play
I am involved in a play, one including the stations of the cross… And I am Pilate, a very formidable and convincing one, I might add =P… Let’s hope it all goes well, and that we all break a leg (literally? Hope not…)

Catechism Retreat
Didn’t imagine it to be so FUN. Even with all my friends around me, I was wondering what they would make me do… Turns out, I was the popular for a presenter, but never got down to it, since I helped in the preparation for the presentation instead of just sitting back… Therefore, I was exempted from the actual presenting of arguments, in the debate against the girls, which they obviously won, since they had four excellent debaters, two experienced and two not as much, but all very good, nonetheless… The trust walk was spectacularly fun as well, with Athena making me stumble into things, and I having revenge making her trip several times, but neither of us fell… Thank God =P

Covenant Ritual
Happened right after the retreat, during mass. Although neither parents nor sponsor was there, I am officially accepted by the community as a candidate preparing for confirmation. How relieved I am…

Canine matters
Tess, our new huskie, has wormed her way into our history of dogs. As early as memory serves, Whiskey (who died before I was born) and Fatty were quite a pair. Next came Fatty and Candy, whom I spent my childhood days with. Then came Candy and Cookie, the pair whom I will remember forever. And now, Cookie and Tess, the pair which I will spend the next few years making memories, and cherishing them for the future. Who knows what or whom will come next?

Others
I seem to be in debt of a lot of reading up, so I shall probably do that now… I have a dinner later, and coincidentally, today is the last day of the CNY.
So, Happy New Year everyone!

Gab.
