it appears the links do work :D but i'll leave the quicklink to the cbox here.

why red shoes?
It was a ballet. A story but Hans Christian Andersen (don't tell me you don't know him). It was a story of a girl who wore a pair of red shoes that refused to come off. It made her dance all night and day.

love this record But I can't see straight anymore.

her knight in sweaty armour

Thursday, October 4, 2007,8:54 PM

today we had duke of edinburgh again, and we did trekking in the jungle.

we had joan, ching, wei wen, ling, syaz and i.

joan was the blindfolded person in the beginnning.

ching was the blindfolded person in the end.

wei wen cleared the bushes for the blind person.

ling was the scout.

syaz and i were just trailing after the blind person, or i helping the blind person along. :)

so we managed, several routes after much screamings. the blind people were afraid when we mentioned spiders and beetles, and ching bumped into a little tree and screamed, later when she heard weiwen say caterpillar, she freaked out. =) and joan stepped into a puddle of muddy water, that looked a little like sewage. with a thin layer of 'oil' on top. *shudder*

the blindfolded person is the person who signifies the injured member of the group, disabled or disadvantaged one, should there be one. Some people got several grazes and cuts, and they were mostly the people who got blindfolded...

now for some pictures from last week's duke of edinburgh. episode, 'erecteeenng a tentt'

we took ages to set up our tent as we were totally clueless. we simply followed the other teams and did vaguely what they were doing. Here's how the other teams were doing.

made us feel like total idiots, but stiilll. we were an all girls team with completely no experience. now again we managed to get mr airdrie over to help. we found a knot in the tent's strings, and being a pianist, with a strict no nails policy, i had no nails and thus couldn't help. so we tried a tent peg, and later a pen.

later we found out how to use pegs as well.

and the tent was finished, after much effort. so... picture time! ching snapping away for blog posts.

i think i see a freaky monster outside. :)

oh, and ling-ling thinks she looks so mysterious. :P

and the next bit is the hardest, we had to take down the tent and fit it all in an impossibly small bag.

i wonder what we have to do next.
