{SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW.}

Hello! I'm dog tired after a whole day of activities. Phew! At least it's over, perhaps for now. Since 8.50 am to 2.50pm moi G.B company and I had been busying ourselves with the Toys on Wheels Project. The surprise was that Ms Sia was in a all-time high grumpy mood. She snapped at Raq & I almost every moment that she set her eyes on us. Firstly, she made us skip our recess just coz we were ushers. It doesn't pay to help her coz she's always ungrateful. Secondly, she forbade us to run or walk about too much as we'll perspire & ' when the sweat seeps through the uniform, it is very unsightly. ' It became a joke for Raq & I for the ceremony. Thirdly, when we tried to usher two snobby guys who were the reps for Daimler & Chrysler to their seats, she scolded us for not speakin' louder as the two guys didn't follow us coz they were wandering aroud lookin' lost. She didn't know that those guys somehow can't stand our chairs.

Never mind about her. I won't let moi day be ruined by some grumps. At 12 plus, we were finally allowed to go to the canteen for our late recess. Thanx Ms Thng 4 that. She is soooo much better than that lass who goes way out to make my life super miserable.

After our recess, we had a serving of ice-cream on waffles each from the organisers of Toys on Wheels. It was certainly delicious. We then made a bee-line for the Meeting Point where the Maxi Cab was waiting. Our destination was Saint Anthony Primary School. I didn't know what was in store for moi. But I'll do moi very best to narrate it well although I'm chatting with Ms Thng(that's the dynamic 'new kid in town'. She's uber nice. She knows how to connect with kids well.)

Anyway, when we reached Saint Anthony, we were 'toy ambasodors'. We led the chosen children up the toy truck and assisted them in finding the toys which they want. There was an Indian boy who was picky about the toy he wanted. He had lots of criterias: must be very big and must be a car. And he doesn't want soft toys( which make up the majority of the toys). In the end, he went back empty handed coz he couldn't find a suitable toy. It was back-breaking work and all of us were hot, sweaty & a wee bit grumpy except Ms Thng who was all smiles. But the day ended the way we wanted it 2 be: bubble tea at Coro. It was wonderful that Ms Thng agreed to our proposal to chill out. Haha. That's the beauty of young teachers. They're not so strict.

At Coro, Ms Thng offered to give us a treat but I paid for moi fries and Honeydew bubbletea. She tried to prevent moi from paying the store keeper moi $2 note by grabbing moi wrist but as know it didn't work out. And I smiled smugly at her. Haha. I undoubtedly had a fun time.

""Love Story"

We were both young, when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts-
I'm standing there, on a balcony in summer air.

I see the lights; see the party, the ball gowns.
I see you make your way through the crowd-
You say hello, little did I know...

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles-
And my daddy said "stay away from Juliet"-
And I was crying on the staircase-
begging you please don't go...
And I said...

Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess,
It's a love story, baby, just say yes.

So I sneak out to the garden to see you.
We keep quiet, because we're dead if they knew-
So close your eyes... escape this town for a little while.
Oh, Oh.

Cause you were Romeo - I was a scarlet letter,
And my daddy said "stay away from Juliet" -
but you were everything to me-
I was begging you, please don't go-
And I said...

Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess.
It's a love story, baby, just say yes-

Romeo save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel.
This love is difficult, but it's real.
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess.
It's a love story, baby, just say yes.
Oh, Oh.

I got tired of waiting.
Wondering if you were ever coming around.
My faith in you was fading-
When I met you on the outskirts of town.
And I said...
Romeo save me, I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting, for you but you never come.
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think-
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said...

Marry me Juliet, you'll never have to be alone.
I love you, and that's all I really know.
I talked to your dad -- go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby just say... yes.
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh.

'cause we were both young when i first saw you
