A day in the Kindergarden...

9/12/2004, today woke up at 6am.. last night slept at 1sumthing.. had to do CIP(community project) today, a post project from my vietnam trip.. So the team meets at 8am, and only at 9sumthing 20people turn up.. many look dead, lack of sleep. So we went to this kindergarden, pretty isolated, near Bukit Timah hill there.. its on a hill too.. pretty big. So this lady split us into 3 teams, one clean the windows, two clean playgrounds, so i was in the playground group, downstairs.. tell more about the kindergarden, its divided, one for the Nun's dorm, a retreat for people and a kindergarden, pretty big.. So my frens and i, total 4 went to clean the playground..

there was one monkey bar, and its infested with mould and algae, pretty green;) the top bars were impossible to clean.. so my "good" frens leave the job for me. I jump and hang there and clean the bars.. its pretty fun though, but a good workout too.. after cleaning that, we were told to clean the basketball court.. Now then, let me explain the situation, a blank basketball court, hard concrete, and she expect us to scrub it clean.. sounds crazy? Ya it is.. so we started to clean it, scubbing and pouring water.. and after a while, many teammates started to complain and curse the lady who tell us to clean haha.. frankly it's pretty depressing, you scrub, and after a while it goes back black.. so, its like neverending.. luckily, its lunch time, so we ate.. we had noodles, which was too little for 20hungry ghosts.. after that.. we work for a hour more, and call it a day.. many of us cant take it anymore, especially the gals..

At around 1530, my brother's plane from Cambodia touch down in Singapore.. went to fetch him with my sister.. was faintin already haha, no food. luckily i was revived at the mac there.. haha, we took a cab back, and tonight gonna watch a movie.. zzz, kinda sleepy already ha.. catch 40winks first.:)
