Weather: cold, windy
Thinking: sometimes I wished that I either didn’t come here or went to France instead

Just got back from the gathering. We played some games and danced. 1st game was tug of war, my group won. 2nd game was to pass a ball over the heads and between the legs. 3rd game was something like poison ball. Everyone had to stand in a circle and the people on the outside had to throw this ball at the people in it. If you are hit in the head or from the knee below, you can continue with the game, any where else and you get to throw the ball. I managed to become the 2nd last girl in the game. Heehee. 4th game was some song game.

Lyrics: here they come with the fat little ponies
Fat little ponies, fat little ponies
Here they come with the fat little ponies
And this is how they tell us.

One person will be in the circle and skip to the song. When the song ends, the person will have to dance in front of the person they stopped. 5th game is to fill a water bottle without using hands. 6th game, everyone stands in a circle and one person will be holding a stick. The person with the stick will drop the stick behind someone and run one round around the circle. The person who “kena” the stick will have to run the other direction and compete for the spot. Ok the game sounds weird when I explain in words but whatever. The main thing is was quite enjoyable. The last game required participants to go round and round 10 times and then dribble a football for a certain length. There were 2 girls who were super funny. One of them kicked the ball and her shoe flew over the fence. A Nepal guy had to climb over the fence to get it for her. Another girl kicked the ball and her shoe flew with the ball.

After that, we had “lunch”, fat sausage and drinks. Then we went into this small “house” and did the ACES Day workout. We then did this very funny dance. Subsequently it was pretty much free time for everyone. People could ask others to dance with them. We were doing the Russian dance halfway when the organizers interrupted us -_- I thought it was really fun because my cute guy took my hand. WAHAHA!!!!

Cute guys alert: Today I spotted this really tall guy from Russia. Ultimate hotness! Compared to Hui Qing, she is like ice cubes. Swee Ting saw this American-like-Finnish guy who she thinks is hotter than mine. But as everyone knows, Swee Ting’s taste cannot be trusted so…. Also Swee Ting thinks that my cute Turkish guy’s friend is cute too.

Swee: I want internet connection!
P.S: when Kux said I didn’t bathe, it’s because I bathe in the morning. I DID bathe ok.

Made some new friends today. Noemi from Hungary and C.B and Reesha(?) from Nepal.
Latest alert: We are having a party here tomorrow night at 8 pm. The Turkish guys may be coming. WOOT!!!
