orientation
the first week of skl was spent with the newbies....in orientation. isnt it ridiculous.....we TA3s are the most senior in the skl now in terms not of age but the number of years spent in tj....this is proven in the way that we always manage to do things more efficiently than those ppl who just follow the crowd blindly...for example...they dunno that the library has a toilet and floods all the other toilets in the skl...and they go from lt2 to hall by walking on the second floor corridors..but there is a MUCH faster route by going down the staircase at TRC and cross the "garden" and go back up the stairs...so we just avoided the stupid crowd where u must queue and wadeva...so wad is ridiculous is that we are letting a bunch of people JUNIOR to us ORIENTATE us. my goodness...
and today, i decided to be a little kind and participate...(i spent the first 2 days in the library or in the canteen while the rest are running around singapore..)..anyway, i was rewarded with injuries on three fingers on my right hand, a scratch on my right arm and above my upper lip..and also hurt gum...why is THAT, well, we headed off to our second station of games, after playing a wet game. there, we need to transport ppl from 1 end of the net ball court to the other on a trolley...so while I was being moved while standing on the trolley, the faggot who was pushing us went at the fastest speed that he could muster with 6 ppl on the trolley...so..in the middle of the court,,,there is a NET. like all courts... and NO ONE had the COW sense to help us lift the net coz we were totally focused on keeping our balance coz we were standing in a weird position with one leg on the trolley and the other balancing somewhere...(coz of limitations...4 legs, 2 hands and unlimited butts)..so as we approached the net, mr . fatso faggot suddenly picked up speed as i stretched my hand to lift the net..so..WHAM, my fingers got caught in the net and the bottom of the net scratched my mouth and teeth...and so...i did a matrix thingy and leaned back so as to avoid further injuries...grabbing the net for balance...and that how i my fingers got cut...i think the little finger has internal bleeding or sumthing and scratches at several places....as such, i missed one game where u need to utilize ur arm strength...but i gave another game a shot..this game is like..transporting water from one end to the other with the help of cloths...and there will be opponents trying to stop it from reaching the end and throwing it in the opposite direction...and my job at the other end of the line was to catch the cloth before other ppl catch it and sqeeze the water into a pail...with my plastered fingers and swollen finger. anyway...i think my team did an excellent job in avoiding the opponents...and i caught almost all of them before the opponent team member got it...by rushing here and there and jumping up and down and scrambling to get to the cloth before the opponent does...so in the end, our team won...thank goodness...and my wound got wet and finger got a little MORE swollen. so i asked for more plaster and first aid equipment. gosh...it hurts alot...! and the swollen little finger is almost twice the size of the unhurt one..GOSH! URGH...haiz....so troublesome lah wounds...but poor thing other classmates got more seriously injured...scraped both knees...OUCH...thank god i wasnt as unlucky...
