Today was CIP at Orchard! For Club Rainbow, a non-profit organisation for children with life-threatening diseases. See, I can memorise already! :D After repeating like dozens of times, okay fine, so I didn't say it that much, most of the talking was done by Harriet! LOL. Right. So I woke up early in the morning at 7, and took an MRT to Orchard to meet a few other people (Elizabeth, Vishaki, Harriet, Suet Yi, Yi Min, Geraldine, Tessa Ying, Phoebe, Paveta, Livia, Jaclyn). I was grouped with harriet and elizabeth and everyone of us went off with one collecting tin, a few sets of postcards and some collar pins, we didn't bother to follow the instructions and divide the stuff among ourselves. Hahaha.
We started resting like after half an hour of asking people to donate. hahahah. Yeah, we rested like quite a lot. Anyway. Some people were really nice and the first person we asked bought one set of postcards which cost $7! :D But, of course some people were the meanshit, stingy, miser, people. Yeah. Like all of us are when people asks us to donate or buy stuff, hee, I promise to at least donate 10 cents next time! It's really frustrating when people just walk away or pretend you're not even there lah.
Well, 1) DO NOT ASK ANGMOHS (some of them are nice, but most of them just walked away :/)
2) DO NOT ASK THE MAIDS (well okay, they do not earn a lot of at least can donate 5 cents or 10 cents right!)
3) ASK THOSE WITH THEIR KIDS WITH THEM (they tend to be nicer :D)
Yeah, that's about it.
And at about 11, we went to meet Geraldine, Phoebe and Paveta at Wheelock Place where we sat for quite awhile before continuing. And we met Anna later! She donated $2 to us and another $2 to Geraldine's group. :D
Harriet and Liz, at wheelock. :D
And then, we had lunch at about 12 at nydc. Had spaghetti and meatballs! The meatballs that ate manhattan or whatever. :D
Liz's lasagne. <3
My spaghetti! :D
We sat there for like ages and took photos! AND. Stupid Yimin, Tessa, Vishaki and Suet Yi all tried (and succeeded) taking pictures of me. UNGLAM pictures of me. I think they're gonna post it. :/ All started with Geraldine! Who asked her to post that picture of me. Now Yimin's posting and now Tessa's posting too! ):
Harriet and I. (:
Liz and I. (:
Tessa and Min sleeping. :DD
EMO!
Tessa's erm... Sexy look.
VISHAKI! HAHAHAHHAHA. (:
The bill, $95.64. :/
All of us with Suet Yi photographing. Except Geraldine, Phoebe, Paveta, Jaclyn and Livia.
And Clare, Cassandra, Andro and Sihui came 12 for CIP. :D
After that, went to Starbucks and sat. Yeah. Had caramel frappuccino. Was really boring, went over to Borders to meet Yimin, Vishaki and Harriet (Suet Yi went to meet her dad) while Tessa and Liz went home. Walked around and met Clare later to pass all the collecting tins to someone. The tins were damn heavy that my arms were hurting after carrying for like what, 5 minutes? But Clare said nothing compared to carrying the canoe, which is like 20kg. OMG crazy lah.
Saw this weird woman. :D
The Club Rainbow collar pin! Bought one, but I lost it already. :/
Then daddy fetched me home. Yep. Rightttt. There's home econs common test tomorrow. The last common test of the year! :D Yes. But that means that final years are nearing. I really have to buck up. I already failed two of my common tests. History and Math, both by one pathetic mark. I really really gotta pull my socks up or I'm gonna get kicked out of Crescent. I'm sorry daddy for disappointing you, and I appreciate that you don't scold me for failing, but instead encourage me to work harder. Thank you. :D
Oh and, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIN MIN! :D
