YOG Day 5 - Kallang Cricket Field (plus other things)

Saturday, 21st August.
Wasn't much to do, once again, because the athletes spoke English, I think. Had biscuits and orange juice with Evgeniya and Alejandra, then watched a bit of archery with Alejandra. My I Speak... badge fell off somehow, somewhere! =( Looked all over for it but couldn't find it, so I took another one. Poor badge =( Collected the Volunteer Appreciation stuff though! Collar pins, Universal Studios ticket and a cert that I've yet to collect. Had lunch with the KTC folks, and talked to Aurelio fom Italy, who's awesome cos he volunteered for the Italian army. Left soon after, and that was my final official day of duty.

It's been a busy week. Finally met Pearlyn, and found a Mr Koh lookalike on Tuesday. Have I already mentioned this in the previous post? I know for sure I mentioned the SIFAS people, whom I met on Wednesday.

Arranged to meet Dhevy on Thursday, at a place that wasn't my house or school, for the first time ever. It felt a bit strange but it was an awesome evening of unloading. And cheesecake. =D It felt like the VJ days when we'd share cheese tarts from the second stall.

Friday morning - puja at home in the morning, trip to YOV in the afternoon to meet a friend, then a frantic rush back home to grab my violin, change, and head for SIFAS rehearsal. Which, as always, ended late. And, because of which, I couldn't go to Yatra. =\ Rushed to meet the girls after that, sipped some cranberry juice, bumped into 2 VJ friends, made a quick stop at Mustafa, and finally reached their house for the sleepover. We were all really tired by then, so we were out flat in minutes.

Had to get up before 7 on Saturday, for my final day of duty that I mentioned at the start of this reader-unfriendly post. Had class after that, and had to hang around after class for rehearsal again. Made another trip to Mustafa in the time between class and rehearsal, thanks to a tip-off from Ale about collarpins sold there that I can trade with other athletes.

Thankfully, didn't have anywhere to go on Sunday morning, but left around 12 for Alumni Dance rehearsal at SIFAS. Discovered Thulasi there, which made going to PA after , with Akhil, a breeze. T'was a really fun car ride =] Took 12 on the way home, because it's much faster than 197, and I like walking along the PCN to Marine Parade.
