Prefect Down! Prefect Down!

First off, ITALY WON THE FRIGGIN' WORLD CUP!

I've been a passive viewer of the World Cup; I make fun of the published "articles", I watch the highlights, I discuss it in my day-to-day living, but I have never stayed up past 12 just to watch a match. But yesterday's finals held significance to yours truly. I foretold that Italy would win. Don't believe me?

I said:

Italy's going to win the WORLD CUP.


A while ago, I made a bold prediction. I quote:

"Here's a bold prediction from me. Spain's going to win the World Cup. In the Omen, one of the signs of the Antichrist is the rise of Rome. Since Rome is in Spain...I'lll let you make the connection"

But wait a minute! Rome's not in Spain, it's in Italy! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Oops man, major blooper. So in conclusion, Spain won't win the World Cup, Italy will.

Check my June archives! I predicted this ONE MONTH AGO, on the 6/6/6 just after watching Omen. It's not a prediction based on "analysis", purely instincts! This just goes to show that what I say goes!

And Nadal lost Wimbeldon to Federer. Darn. I stayed up til 1+ to watch the match too.

So, yesterday, Yan Shan called me out to go cycling at East Coast. The plan was to meet at Suntec first, then from there head on to the beach. First to arrive was me, as usual, followed by Yan Shan, Andrian and Hui Min. We met up with Glenn Woo, TahNern and Ringo later, but not before i got myself a pair of black shoes for the investiture which was the next day. I have always been under the impression that "Bata" was a pretty cheap shop, nothing more than $100 at least. Imagine my shock when I asked for the size 11 of this awesome looking shoe only to find that it was $269. Goodness. In the end, I got an OK-looking one for $60. Almost the same price as my "Sala" shoe!

Anyway, we played abit of arcade, Guitar Freaks and Maximum Tune, the usual. I owned YanShan in all my races so as far as I'm concerned, Angelo FTW.

The weather was horrible. Though according to the Geography Textbook, it's not the North-East Monsoon season yet, it's been raining like buckets recently. As I sms-ed to TahNern shortly before I left my house, "It's raining man", forgetting to put the comma before the "man". I truly believed that we won't be doing any cycling that day, and we didn't!

We took a bus to East Coast. Slowly, the rain fell, before building-up to a full on assualt of water bullets like quail eggs (expression taken from Memoirs of A Geisha <3).>


So a whole bunch of nothing at East Coast since the rain showed no signs of stopping. No clear plans was made lah; took 16 to who-knows-where. Nobody knew where we were going, and since I was feeling really really under the weather (literally, figuritively), I dropped once the bus stopped at my stop. They ended up playing pool, but I got some work done at home, and got to talking to people, so it's all good.

As for today, it was Prefects' Investiture. Early morning and I realised I forgot to bring a belt to hold up my size 40 pants (I'm a size 28 to 30 now, FYI). Thanks to TahNern for not leaving his home despite the time being 7++. He lent me a Billabong belt. It totally clashed with my white pants and shirt, but my blazer covered it up so yay. I got the book in the morning, so yay for that too :-).

The day was short, because we left class at 11 on the dot. We did have to put up the words "Prefects' Investiture" during recess. Kanta couldn't find the panel for the apostrophe, so he took a coma and turned it upside down, so that's why it looks so weird -_-".

Event went quite smoothly. Some people were abit blur about things, but in general, it was so~so. Short and sweet ceremony. We looked so good in our blazers; I think people were hyper-ventilating on the insides. I'm so happy to have stepped down!

After the whole event, we had a picture taking in the foyer, and then some in the canteen. As I lack my own digital camera, I'm having to rely on people for pictures, so I'm sorry for that! The pics are gonna come in drips and drops, as I collect pictures from various people with camera. Here's one from HuiMin:

Stayed in the library after school for abit to do some A-maths with some of the 4-a guys. I'm impressed with Ryan's influence among the library members. See right, his juniors took out sets of Scrabble to play. Ryan went over, said some stuff and they buzzed off just like that. Phwoar man. Gayboy on the outside, thaiger on the inside.

Headed home and got some sleep, homework, exercise and studying done. It's been a long day, and this week; even longer. Cheesepies.

PS: I'll take good care of the book and the apron.
