School!

1
Three days ago was Friday, my first break in the new year. That's right, finally I started school after a long gruesome holiday and I'm now officialy outside my house every morning.

Orientation was lively, met new friends, played some games(?).
And the school? It's LARGE! What seems to look like going to your respective classes is like going around The Mall (only bigger!).

Let me tell you my experiences in point form,
-I have a 'Personal Study' section in my timetable where I can do almost anything I want in school time. Either I go to the Library, the Canteen or Do errands like meeting the Careers officer (that reminds me, need to get the form for allowance from Welfare).
-I now have to walk to different classes in different rooms.
-There are '$2' chicken rice for sale, with choices of differently cooked chicken.
-I have to call my teachers 'tutors' now
-My tutors are cool!
-They have this kind of stairway called 'The Titanic'. The corner of the stairs looked like the front of a ship. and looking at it makes you wanna go do that scene with the "I'm Flying, Jack, I'm Flying" ~*playing Titanic theme song in background*~.
-Finally, lockers! (can you believe this?! Zani bought his own, but luckily I get to put some of my stuff! hehehe)
-New friends! And reunion with old ones!
-etc..
-etc..
-etc!

I'll try to post some pictures (when I can!!).

Today was the last day of orientation, a briefing by the discipline commitee. Now I can we start the real school day, tomorrow!

Oh yes, before I forget.
Ladies and gentlemen, I have registered for Rugby.
That's right, Rugby! The sport that people would say "Like American Football, only there are no pads.." so I'm actually taking a risk by joining this sport (due to the brutish nature of the sport).

So why am I taking Rugby? Because I'm dreadfully fearful of footballs, Basketballs, Takraw balls, Net Balls, Volleyballs.. anything sphere shaped (I'll mention the 'Legend of the eleven balls' some other time). Also, I haven't done any sports so why don't I take one that matches my physique?
My friend told me when I came into the registration room, everyone in it was amazed (Maybe because this gigantic chunk of a man is taking Rugby). So this wednesday, I'm going to begin my learning and training together with the members in Jerudong International School. WooHoo!

Zani and my best friend, Jess are taking Kendo. I saw him bringing a list of Japanese terms for Kendo. He said to me, "I'm gonna slice you up with a sword!"
So I said, "While you're coming at me with your sword, I'll hit you with my Spear (pun intended)".
