The Victorian Challenge, how to keep awake for 24 hours

Today we zoom in on a spectacular event also known as the Victorian Challenge! This event is only held ONCE in every FOUR years, wow it's like the Olympics or even the World Cup.... it's that bad! Haha just kidding. It was pretty fun but really really tiring. Like you would just lie down on the floor and BAM you're asleep and snoring and disturbing the rest you inconsiderate fool.

Anyway the day started out rather well, we were all enthusiastic and hyped up about the Victorian Challenge. We shouted our lungs out during the ceremony, but the ironic thing is that we were told to do so... so yeah it sounded pretty insincere hahaha. Why would someone rehearse when to clap and when to shout and when the cheer for a ceremony. If it was really that great we would do it naturally anyway. But that's rather minor so let's get it out of the way.

To begin, i was paired up with si cheng to take a bunch of pictures with my digital camera. The pictures were supposed to be 75% yellow which meant that yellow was supposed to be the dominant colour in the photo. We did see some interesting yellow dominant pictures in a magazine but decided to skip over them :D.

While pictures were being taken, grids were being drawn. Draw draw draw until 12 o clock then most of us go eat lunch =P. I was in the night shift so I went to catch a movie with my friends. Hairy Potty and the Order of the Pe***.

On a side note, Harry Potter is really an overhyped movie that is a must watch for fans only. I didn't find it particularly interesting or climatic and I honestly feel that the book is better as it allows room for imagination. But I have to admit a movie is always good to have a certain feel of the setting and the appearances of the characters itself. Though the effects were very well done in this movie, the plotline just falls through a plothole (ok lame pun) but still they cut off ALOT of things and even editted some info.

I returned at night and well, progress was slow once we reached the school crest. It was really puzzling and sometimes even frustrating to figure out which piece fits best. Furthermore, only a few people could work at a time because we were pasting the pieces ONE by ONE. There was supposed to be some group cycle thing but apparently that flew out the window =D. Anyway I did some pasting and figuring out but then when it came to 12 plus my brain was dissolved in to a pile of mindless goo.

I ate alot on that day.

And "You're the inspiration" played on the radio at around 3!!

:D

At 6 in the morning I really cannot tahan already then go take taxi go home sleep...sleep...sleep... till 1 plus, when I was rudely awakened by my lit teacher Miss Jennifer Koh zzz.

Oh well it's time to go off to prepare my presentation of the product for tomorrow. I'm the overall IC for the presentation yay.... NOT
