Hey all i am back blogging after like almost one month later from my previous posts. As usual i didnt had much to blog about but since my blog seems to be rotting, i shall update it. haha.

On 31st janary, i went with my friend to the city alive dance party which was after the Chingay parade 2009. We volunteered a few weeks back and there we were helping out. All of us had to report at 430pm at penisula hotel ballroom where we got a city alive shirt, whistle, torchlight and a tag saying that we are crowd control. After that we had our dinner and waited for over 3 hours before we moved to the location where we were posted to. When we arrived at an area near the padang, the Chingay parade just started. So we had to wait for another hour before we started to usher the crowd away and took over from the crowd control people of the chingay parade. But meanwhile waiting i had an eye opener watching the parade with all the perfomers and the floats which were very well decoraded i must admit. The best part of the parade was the last part where there was a fireworks display. It was not as extravagant as the national day or let alone the new year's fireworks, but it was equally exciting to watch despite all the smoke from the fireworks. After the fireworks display was over, it signalled the end of the chingay parade and the start of the City alive dance party. Thats when all of us went to work. We ushered all the people out of the area and shifter the metal barriers in place to not allow anyone to pass through unless they have the pass. The open top double decker bus arrived and after it has traveled to the stage which was in the middle, my sections jobs were basically done. We took turns to be stationed around the area to answer party goers questions and to join in the fun in the stage area. The whole dance party ended at 3am and my friends and i left the hotel where we left our bags only at 345am after debrief. A few of us shared a cab home whereby i was dropped off at simei before the rest of my friends continued to changi airport to have breakfast. I arrived home around 4 plus and after i settled down and i completed my part of the project which had to be done it was already 5am. Though its not the "latest" time that i slept, i was nevertheless exhausted. Luckily nothing much was to be done on sunday so i had a rather slow sunday.

Nothing much happened on monday as well as i had usual lessons in school. But when it came to night time, it was somewhat a repeat of what happened on saturday night. I followed my dad to my grandparents place to help out with a praying ritual. I was surprised i was able to stay awake even up till 5am again when me and my dad finally left my grand parents house. I helped my grandma to move the food, fruits, etc around. It was tiring but since my dad wasnt feeling very well, i had to be the one awake enough to help out. I managed to used my laptop until about 3am before i finally decided i had used enough of the laptop and switched it off. By the time we were traveling home in my dad's car, i was already dozing off, so when we arrived home, i had a quick shower and when to bed at around 6am before waking up at 12pm today.

So thats basically what happened this past few days for me. I will TRY to update my blog more often (no promises). Seeya then! HaVe A nIcE dAy! :)
