Aahhh I can’t stand Three- Star Kayaking! I can’t do the Eskimo roll right! I just don’t know where to sweep! Where! How! What do you do underwater!
Then I get all disorientated and have to tap the hull for Anthony to flip me over.
Argh argh argh argh
We saw two jellyfishes today! One got heartlessly buried in the sand; the other got flung into the wide open sea. It was really amusing to see a jellyfish fly across the sky like that.
I think I’ve gone slightly wonky. I feel like I’m on the kayak all the time, drifting and floating slightly. Whoo~
Nice feeling! And I want to sleep early. So there.

(pointlessly late bit) I’d just like to settle a few things before I go off and watch anime. Woot!
Okay, I am officially screwed for Chinese. And tomorrow is some Graduation Service thing where the graduates turn up in white dresses and sit and look pretty for about 2 hours.
Adeline has brought a skirt SPECIFICALLY for this event. That’s about as much encouragement I need to go already. And yes, I’m bringing a camera.
And yes I’m wearing a crummy dress. (end/pointless bit)

One. Think of 15 short bits of interesting stuff about yourself. And they’ve gotta be true.
Two. Come up with 5 false statements regarding yourself, but for fun's sake keep them in the threshold of believability.
Three. Jumble them all up together and list them in any order.
Four. Post them on your blog and let people guess which the five false ones are!

And now my MEME!
1. I have never kept long hair before. (Well aside from now that is.)
2. I like Lady’s Finger.
3. My name, Nellyn was a mistake.
4. When I went to Cairns, all I got was some pictures and a wart on my foot.
5. I think black cats are good luck.
6. I once acted as some nymph for my kindergarten school play.
7. I started wearing glasses in Primary Four.
8. When I was small, I once got lost at Genting Highlands and very intelligently made my way back to our hotel room and waited for my parents outside the room door.
9. My first anime crush was Dark Mousy, from D. N. Angel.
10. I am a hopeless romantic and cry at sad movies.
11. I started listening to radio when I was Primary Five, and even then, I fell asleep when listening.
12. I never watched Sesame Street when I was young.
13. Once I got sick before my Primary Two Mathematics exam and in the end, I didn’t do the paper.
14. I was in the choir for my Primary School musical.
15. I have not played Guild Wars or DotA before.
16. I once got a nose bleed in primary school and I still have no idea why today.
17. I sing in the bathroom.
18. The first fanfiction I ever wrote was a Warcraft love story.
19. I used to think British India was an airline.
20. I got lice before in my hair.

Ah, there. Done. Now have fun guessing. I think it’s pretty easy. I wasn’t very creative with the statements.

When I was on my way back to Paya Lebar, I saw a man with Lady’s Fingers,
Dressed in a big red shirt, and yellow slippers.

And that’s all I’ll be saying today. I’m too fed up, annoyed and sleepy in general to say anything else.
Meme is coming up soon. I need to fine tune it a little.

SUN SALUTATIONS:
Stand – ready position
Breath in deep, arch back slightly, hands move up to point up, look at thumbs
Breathe out, bend forward, hands touch ground in front/beside you with knees slightly bent
Face up, inhale
Face down (released) exhale, jump back to push up position before dropping down and resting on palms, chest and knees
Arch back up, breath deep
Exhale, jump back to toes, forming triangle shape with hands and balls of feet as base of triangle; head upside down, breathe in and out deeply 5 times
Exhale, legs leap forward, near hands, knees bent again
Face up, inhale
Face down, exhale, bend back upwards, hands going up ala pirouette style, arch back again, like second position
Relax, breathe and go back to ready position
Repeat 9 times

Yeah that was what we learnt today at Yoga. Don’t worry if you don’t understand what I’m typing. The instructor told us to revise it.
It's really relaxing. I forgot to breathe a couple of times.

As I am a completely lazy bugger and I refuse to spend anymore time that I need for blogging, I have successfully summarised everything that happened today for our ODAC outing in one sentence for Adeline. I love myself sometimes.


- Adel [The memory is no friend; it can only tell you what you no longer have.] says:
so what did u guys do at ur gathering
leninophage 'when you've painted yourself into a corner, it helps if you enjoy watching paint dry.' [Happy 9th October!] says:
uhh
leninophage 'when you've painted yourself into a corner, it helps if you enjoy watching paint dry.' [Happy 9th October!] says:
we ate
leninophage 'when you've painted yourself into a corner, it helps if you enjoy watching paint dry.' [Happy 9th October!] says:
then bought pomelllloos
leninophage 'when you've painted yourself into a corner, it helps if you enjoy watching paint dry.' [Happy 9th October!] says:
lanterns
leninophage 'when you've painted yourself into a corner, it helps if you enjoy watching paint dry.' [Happy 9th October!] says:
etc
leninophage 'when you've painted yourself into a corner, it helps if you enjoy watching paint dry.' [Happy 9th October!] says:
and went to bishan park
leninophage 'when you've painted yourself into a corner, it helps if you enjoy watching paint dry.' [Happy 9th October!] says:
chased the assistant sea chief for saying that horses gallop instead of run, met some cats, set up sparklers, lanterns, burnt a lot of things, had a romantic walk with my fairy god daughter, waxed the entire place then scraped off the wax again, decorated a palm tree, destroyed the pomelos, lost some mooncakes and made lots of noise before leaving.

There you go. Such is the simplicity of life.
And today, I went cycling for one hour with Liew, went to Junction 8, ate lunch with Liew and Adeline, teased ADeline mercilessly about not being able to survive in Cambodia, University and any other undeveloped and highly foreign places before going to school for PW. Which was actually successful. Which is scary.
And I found this really cool Ootori Kyouya site! I love that cool nerdy guy.
Yes I am officially FOR nerds.
Give me Ishida Uryuu, Hikari Satoshi and Ootori Kyouya any day and I will love you. I am considering getting a Kyouya plushie. Ph34r the Renge!

And thus, I hold true to the fact that I can blog short posts wan, okay. Haha.
Happy Belated Birthday, Jia Chang! (Whose birthday was yesterday. Hum.)

Actually, I was supposed to blog. Then I got distracted. Thank you for Guild Wars, television, thinking of doing PW, music and general Youtub-ity in all.
I love my life. Anyway:
OMGWTHBBQWAFFLES THEY'RE OVER!
And yes, I love this expression. It's super random. And I refuse to blog anymore. It's 2am in the morning. Thus.
Stay and admire my template! I like penguins.
