I'm moving there. I feel that Blogger is not keeping up with the times, and that its functionality is very limited.
Updates stopped for this blog. Last post 20 August 2013.

Yesterday was Fun-O-Rama. I reached there 20 minutes earlier than the majority of other people, and the first interesting thing I saw was this.
If you are wondering what's that (probably because my camera phone sucks), its a cow being roasted. The cow rotates on the stick, by the way. The first two pictures are of the cow when it is still being cooked. The last picture has parts of it cut off, by the people in black in the background.
I had to work in the games stall for my first shift, and it was rather embarrassing. The aim of the game is to drive a remote controlled car through a track and park it in 3 parking lots. Watching the children hopelessly trying to get into the parking lot just makes me feel so stupid. I was expecting one of them to just start crying or give up any time.
Well, when my shift was over, it was time to spend all my coupons. Bought 1 cup of ice cream, then walked around to look for more stuff to buy. Then I bought a donut, and a plate of cheese fries. The cheese fries were all soggy and gross, so I went to my class and offered it to them. Managed to clear less than 5 fries. Ah well.
Throughout the day I continued to buy more stuff to eat. I bought a root beer float, 2 scoops of ice cream, 1 cup of gelato, some Thai crackers. Ice cream overload.
I went to play most of the games, avoiding games where I have to kick because I can't kick. I threw balls into holes, threw darts at balloons, threw darts at targets, threw frisbees into holes, threw CDs into holes (and threw 1 CD accidentally at the guy operating the stall), slid cups across a table to specific locations on the table, shot cans with a gun, threw stones into a basin with a target and water in it, dropped coins into water and hopelessly watch the coins spin away from the target, threw hats and wonder why they keep sliding off the coconut when it supposed to land and cover it, threw empty drink cans into holes, threw those sticky figures which supposed to stick onto the wall and make their way down into boxes, put a ball on 2 sticks and let the ball drop off the stick into cups, threw hangers which supposed to hang on strings, watched a magic show which was pretty bad (went there to sit and enjoy the air-con actually), and I can't remember anymore. That has to be the longest sentence I've ever made.
So, after playing all that, I got a lot of prizes. Unfortunately, no big prizes. I won 6 soft toys, a pack of 12 colour pencils, 1 pencil, 1 pen, about 50+ sweets, about 10 snacks (those small Twisties sized snacks), a metal water bottle, a big pack of cornflakes, 2 cans of drinks, and a notepad. I think that's all I won, don't know if I left out anything. Unfortunately I had 60 bucks left to spend after all that. Gave 20 bucks to some people I know, and I still had 40 bucks. Now I know what it feels like to have too much money.
I wanted to spend my time playing Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core, but I ended playing all the funfair games. Ah well. Stupid fat block in my pocket for 12+ hours.
Time spent in school: 7am to 7:40pm.
