pae

hmmmmm, PAE at MI has started, and well, there were pros and cons -

1st day was kinda quiet. introduction here and there. all the "hey, i'm kelvin..." or "hey, what's your name?" or "what school were you from?" or "nice to meet you!" came out in a fake welcoming accent that made me feel as if it was gonna be crappy, and as you would expect, their replies weren't as friendly as how i greeted them. it would be sth like, "uuuh, yea.. st.pats." or "uuuh, yea, nice to meet you too.." that was when i thought to myself, "here we go again." but lunchtime came, and i took the opportunity to talk to this other quiet guy. he was kinda friendly and we talked throughout the day, ahahaha, nice guy. his name is shawn. so basically, the first day was kinda awkward. my OG was dead anyway. but i did meet a few familiar faces(eg. yiwen, bruno, chin hwe-sorry i cant spell your name)

2nd day lasted till 9pm. loooooong day huh? so that means alot of things happened. saw shawn brought his friend along(fuckin gatecrasher luke. hahaha!). we introduced ourselves and we became friends and shit, he had a dirty mind! we talked and laughed. well, i made a few enemies too and they were kinda unpleasant, but i wouldn't want my old self to come out again right? so i just took shit in and left it there. it was better than getting in trouble socially and with the school. i just took a step back, and ignored. well, ed told me once that i didn't have the ability to ignore other people's comments and that was what made me paranoid. i tried ignoring and i got damn pissed but it wasn't worth getting kicked out of school huh? after it all settled down, i cracked some jokes with fellow friendly groupmates. laughed around and then it was mystery game time. ahaha. quite fun la, almost got my balls busted, but it was accidental from the crew. ahaha, fun stuff. after that, clock struck 9pm, and dad fetched me home.

3rd day was the last day of orientation and it was a short day cuz it ended at 1pm. when i first reached there, i was as stone as a stone. damn tired and sleepy. so i didn't talk to anyone, not even shawn or luke. so i just sat and listened to talks on business diploma available there or sth. after the talk, there was clan period, and we were suppose to decorate the mascots like the flintstone characters cuz our group name is flintstone, so it's only right to dress our mascots up like them. there was bam bam and fahter flintstone(whatever his name is). damn funny. decorated the car, made him his club, and gave him new clothes. bam bam was played by luke and father flintstone was played by shawn. haha. talked to some new people too. one of 'em was irwin. nice guy for a person who looks kinda rowdy(ahah, no offence dude.) he was surprisingly friendly. so there was the grand finale thing with lotsa clan cheers. my group was the shittiest. but after it all, it got a lil emotional. didn't dare talk to some people:( exchanged contact details with friends, and left. well, after it all, i thought back and i kinda enjoyed it. met new people, both good and bad, and it kinda opened my eyes wider to the world. ahaha.

you know, the orientation kinda told me that "friendship" was like water in the desert. if you dont grab it quick enough, it's gonna go away, and without it, you're just gonna slowly suffer till you die. the friends you make there, they're fake. someday, they'll turn their back on you, so be prepared to get fucked. not only in MI. but everywhere- poly, JC wherever. the friends you make in sec sch are the real friends you're gonna make for life, so treasure them.

so after school on fri, i met up with my old buddies from 4e5: CJ, YJ and chris. we decided on a picnic at westcoastpark. we had LOTSA fun, ahahha! did lotsa stupid but memorable things like the spineroonie of death. ahahah!!! thanks guys for the wonderful outing. really appreciate it:D
