#1341

Just realized that I typed rubbish for the recent posts.
I've to start naming the details of this week before I forget them all.
BEWARE. It's going to be long.

This week was so tough on me and I got no people to depend on. Crisis(s) always happen last minute and I'm the only one there to solve it. Shall elaborate those unhappy things later because I want to talk bout` the Landfill trip first.

Was at Pulau Semakau, an island where Singapore burned its rubbish into ashes and dump it there to fill the land. Dreaded to visit the island because I knew it was a total waste of time and blood. Took 45minutes to reach the island and I saw the place where 2PM shot their "Hands Up" music video at Marina South Pier. My head was spinning like mad on the ferry and I didn't have this problem before. Was disgusted by the smell upon arrival, it smelled like the first version of Singapore's "New water" if I'm not wrong. Was given a introduction of the island and went around the road to "tour". Saw this amazing site while "touring" and that was seeing an island under the rain with bright clouds above the darker ones. I swear it was the only thing that I enjoyed during the trip. Then we walked into the forest and I killed lots of "my kind" who tried to attack me. And we went walking on the sea bed (it's low tide now so...). It was a horrible experience because we got sand into our shoes and socks combined with sea water. We had to be very careful of what we stepped onto because "stingrays and crabs" might attack us. Then we cross a sea of "sea grass" with deep water and I got scrubbed by a rock that was hidden in the water. That sent me bleeding for hours and the sea water helped me disinfect my wound (totally stupid). So we saw lots of marine animals there, crawling and swimming around. Crabs were everywhere running in between holes, squid let out it's ink, starfish lying in the middle of nowhere, seashells everywhere and corals everywhere. I think we spent at least 3hours at the seabed just to walk around and see living things before we left. The journey back to the road was hell too because we had to cross the forest (again getting bitten by "my kind"), the branches were everywhere and we have to bend down in order to pass. Thank god that I brought my slippers to change or else I don't know how I'm going to survive with the sand and soaked shoes. Again, took the small ferry back to Marina South Pier and this time, I managed to get a glimpse of how beautiful the landed properties were at coastal areas. Waited for the "coach" to come and picked us up, we passed by the "Marina Sands" and it was my first time seeing the building so "close up", totally like a frog in a well. But I must say, the hotel rooms were really high class and everything, no wonder it's the most expensive hotel in the world. Reached school and left home by taking train.

Shall talk bout` those unhappy stuff, somehow there's a lot to say.
This week is still group work, so everyday I'm busy with group work and group work. Right, so in my group there's J1, J2, N, F, L and myself. J1 was busy with funeral so I don't have anything to say bout` her. J2 is my leader, N is my closet friend, F is my friend and that L is that stupid guy that was "left over" last Monday. I must say L is the biggest problem of all because whatever he does, there's lots of information that's extra and I've to edit like madness just to convey the most important message. Nothing much really happened until yesterday, it was the biggest crisis of all. The power point slides were finalized and it was stupid that there's information needed to be added in and worst of all we've already printed out the slides. The additional information was asked by lecturer so L and J2 went to find her to get the right answers. And they're gone for like an hours plus, powerpoint slides, presentation boards everything was kiting for them to come back so we can continue. By the time they were back, it was already time for the studio to close. And we still have tons of things to sort out, just then N and F had to go (they left early). So there's only 3 person left, including me to continue. With studio closed, we had to shift everything to the library and that stupid printing aunt was giving attitude because other group gave attitude to her. Then our leader has to go because she stay in Malaysia and I'm left with L. Thank god that my was cool-headed so I managed to sort out everything and list the things that we needed to do and managed to print 3copies out of 6. Then I threw everything to L so that the other 3 copies needed can be printed  today with another two groupmates. Honestly, I don't want to go out today so I dumped everything to others since they dumped everything to me. Seriously, what's the point of me doing everything they asked when they can just leave me alone with L to handle everything. This is what I'm really mad at even N, she left early instead of offering help. I believe, she's the one to give all sorts of excuses to leave early and dumped all the work to me. She knew that L can't be trusted simply because he's blur. Instead of staying back she still chose to leave early. Thank god that J1 went to print the things with them this morning or else I don't know how are we going to handle the submission on Monday morning.

Then, another thing. There's this powerpoint submission on Thursday and it's another group work with 10people. Out of the 10 people, 2 of them ain't doing any work and they just got a free ride. Then, there's 3 people who were supposed to handle the documentation, including me. But the thing was, I'm the only one making the slides according to the information the others found and none of the other two offered help. Right, so the minute I complied everything into slides, I asked one of the documentation people to edit, she just dragged and dragged until at night then she said she didn't have the copy of the slides to edit. Again, I'm the one doing the stupid work alone and some of them don't even need to do anything. Giving excuses such as "doing the main project" was stupid because I've the "main project" to do too. It's not like my group's progress for the "main project" was faster than other people. So why those in the fastest pace can't edit the slides when I asked to. Seriously.

I hate the fact that I'm covering other people's work when I've mine too.
I hate the fact that people just dumped everything to me and expect me to finish.
I hate the fact that they give excuses to leave early instead of staying and help.
I hate the fact that people don't do their work that was assigned accordingly.
-.-

Now, I don't even know what I'm talking bout`.
And I've this stupid formal wear on Monday which I don't know what to do bout` it.
And I don't know what to wear. -.-
Time to shut the laptop after using for hours.
BYE.
