Yay! Today was my best schoolday so far since the start of the year! Today's my birthday too, so I brought a packet of toffees to treat my friends. Lolx. Today morning I drank a RedBull™ before going to MacRitchie Reservior for the Amazing (cross-country)Race! I am not participating in the competitive cross-country race, so I watched my friends run 3.5km, while the rest of the levels ran 4.8. Anyway, the sec 4s run so fast! in 15 minutes, they ran 4.8 km, that's like 320m per 1 minute! While the fastest sec 1 ran 14 minutes for 3.5 km, which is like 250m per 1 min... Then, when it came to the mass run, I decided to do a blockade, so my class formed a line to block the people behind us. But as there wasn't any teamwork, we easily broke down, and everyone started to lag behind. Choong Hsiong, Jun Bin, Song Sim and I were jogging the flat parts, walking the upslope, and running the downslope. Logical, isn't it? But when we reached the pavement beside the road, we started to walk as if you run, you take in more carbon monoxide from the cars, and it is bad for your health. Then, many other 1L pupils caught up with us. With 800m left, Bill suddenly shouted, "For Arsenal!" and ran like mad. Upon seeing that, Jia Han chased after him, like a car tailgating another. So we shoud call Jia Han Tom and Bill Jerry as that makes sense...WaDeVa. We started to jog after we reached the end of the road part and then we duckwalked! It was so lame as the volunteers from NPCC and some other pupils saw us and thought we were mad. After 100m, we gave up doing that and sprinted all the way to the finish. Choong Hsiong overtake me as I when into berserk mode every time I needed to run at top speed. My eyes start to blink like mad and my arms start to swing wildly, then, my brain starts to tell me to keep pushing till the finish line. When all the sec1s reached the finish line, everyone was waiting fo the last two sec1s, who were both from my class, Muk and Joseph. Muk arrived like 10 minutes before Joseph and Joseph took a total of 50 something minutes to complete. When Muk arrived, we all got vigilant as we looked out for THE Joseph. Yes! There he is! He was running with the last few sec2s and 3s as my a many sec1s started to cheer for him! "Joseph! Joseph!" we shouted. Despite the cheering, he was still walking, then when he neared us, hh, as usual, gave an excuse,"Leg pain."
Anticlimax.

After the crosscountry, Yu Xuan, Bill, Wei Cher and I when to IRC cybercafe of Parklane Shopping Mall to play LAN. We played CS at first, but YuXuan got killed every round but never kill anyone at all. While Wei Cher, who never played CS before, was doing headshots and killing people. What the hell.
So in the end, Yu Xuan quit playing and played Maplestory instead (wasting money as he can play that at home.) Then Bill when to play DoTa on B.net while WC and I continued our game.
After LANning, or whatever you call that, (cybering, crapping, cafeing, playing, CSing, B.netting, etc) we when to Bishan MOELC for 3rd language, which was very uneventful. Well, that's all, bye for now.
