MERdeKAaaaa!
*sings in patriotic voice*
"Tanggal tiga puluh satuuuuu...bulan lapaaaaan lima puluh tujuuuuuh!"
Right. That's as far as patriotism goes for me this August 31st. The school was having this Malaysian lunch during lunchtime, but you had to pay to get in. Being a Malaysian from top to toe and inside out, you think you'd at least get in free. My foot.
Anyway, I didn't even remember it was Merdeka Day until the announcement came over the PA system reminding students that there was the M'sian lunch going on. It was a little jolt to the system, not to sleep in on this day, wake up and find my entire family watching the Merdeka Day parade on TV, make Milo, and join them on the couch...as boring as it always was. Except for the part about trying to spot friends and Pheebs in the Girl Guides section of the march. =) The worst was always the military parade though. Watching camouflage tanks crawl across the screen can be quite mind numbing.
Went for swim trials today. And guess what? I've found a sport I cannot do!! Swimming. I can't swim 50m of ANY stroke under 1 minute. My stamina was worse than I thought it was. Which is pretty sad. Gaa. But I always have my badminton, soccer and athletics (and other sports) cushion to fall back on. *mutters to self consolingly* Makes me feel better. ^^
Year 11 camp leaves tomorrow for Marysville, a two hour drive away, so I hear. I don't want to GO-ho-ho-ho...*groan*...
Yah. Like that lor. I'm doing this during prep time, which is not a good idea. People are wanting the computer for homework now. Leaving, leaving...
Anyway, good luck for the trials guys. Y'all be awrite. =)
