Of wine and meat

Of wine and meat and the joys of life

All those that I can't enjoy right now. Simply because I have a freakin' cough. Well, if that ain't bad enough, throw in a bad cold which, thankfully, recovered a couple of days back.

Ngee Ann band camp was fun. Coupled with a party of fun loving people, we had a blast playing pranks and getting pranked. Lots of paint were involved, as we were rushing out the backdrop for the concert, which you can see here. Really pretty picture designed by Kenneth Koh's brother, and painted by us.

Games were a hell lot of fun. But it would have been better if the members were mixed up better. Station games were commendable. The station masters tried their best to keep spirits high, and well, they succeeded. Getting wet was the best part. And that gave me the cold which kept me at bay for a few days.

After games, I immediately came down with a fever, which left me half crippled while attempting to paint the backdrop in the second night. Halfway through the night, I gave up and squirmed my way onto the sofa, which already had a half dead Ruth sleeping in it. But when you are feeling sick and tired, you won't give two hoots about the amount of space you have to sleep. Grabbing a large plushy cushion as my pillow, I immediately fell asleep.

Nothing much to mention during the camp. It was awfully fun, and tiring. The day after the camp ended, I was summoned back to Ngee Ann for more logistics work. But then the summoning failed as I had not enough energy, and the fever was still running high. So, dear Joshua and his party had to struggle alone.

Friday was a disaster. The stuff was cut up all right. But the nightmare comes from hanging it all up. Especially with fishing lines all over the place and multiple reels tangled together. But by 5.30, we had everything up in the air. And the sense of achievement, is really indescribable.

Concert went quite smoothly. Not going to describe about the music part. Had a hell of a time camwhoring like a girl right before concert started and during the intermission.

I'm pretty bored right now and I can't be bothered to craft my post in my usual style. If I ever get the time to blog some substantial entries, and if my brain actually starts working again, I'll do a proper post. Promise.
