I still remember how reluctant I was to attend my first session of DCCL.
How I was fretting deep inside my heart.
To meet these people who might have already bonded without me.
How I regretted not choosing to be with my friends and convinced myself it would be good to know more people this way.
How I needed the support of Hulkies who pushed for me to go anyways.
How talking to them somehow calmed me down.
It had turned out okay I guess.
The seniors were kinda friendly but I didn't feel like I belong.
Maybe it was too fast to judge then.

Then it was VOC.
At the starting people weren't even talking to me.
Laughing in their own group, cracking jokes I didn't understand.
It was a big comfort for Peifang to have been there.
Then she tried to push me to interact with the new batch.
I played along, tried to talk and relate to the common stuff we had.
It was fine, really.
Better when Zhenyi came along.
Though we hadn't really talked much during BS class but still.
By the end of the day I was tired.
And sick that I'm in such unfamiliar situations.
I didn't bother to try to fight one more day.
Maybe it was wrong.
I regretted some but it was also likely that I couldn't take it.
Such vigorous activities that might have aggravated my condition.
Sounded fun though.
There's still time.

Our very first centre visit.
I was still afraid that I won't fit in.
So I did what I was best at when making friends.
Act yi ge shou ^^
Shopping for the refreshments.
Lunch.
The virgin experience with a tutee was actually not bad.
Because I got a girl who was nice and smart :)
Really like her, hope I can get her as my tutee next year when we start officially.
Then the celebration which involved a lot of standing around.
And tiramisu!
Haha.
Ended with a super early dinner at KFC.
The whole event went rather well.
They really are people I can talk to, laugh with.
It's just not that in depth.

Now we come to what made me write this post.
The BBQ.
It was such a fun time~
Staying up overnight x)
HTHT.
A day or two before the actual day I was starting to rethink my position.
If it'll really work out.
The BBQ Yiteng suggested.
The overnight HTHT I did.
I would say, I totally didn't regret going :))
Although I stood there like a lamp post the whole night.
Literally.
Haha.
Because the lights were out and it's damn dark.
At least I made myself useful!
Missed out on some small talk trying to make myself useful but it's okay.
Sometimes people do care.
The pit warmed me outside and the people warmed me inside.
I wonder how I managed to prevent myself from being roasted that night haha.
Only thing was that I think the seniors did more than they were supposed to.
Since it was organised by juniors and we were actually supposed to do it on our own and not let our 'guests' move.
Anyways, as long as everyone had fun!
And from the looks of it I'm pretty sure they did :D

HTHT much.
I was pretty surprised by their forthrightness actually.
Didn't really share much that night.
Brain wasn't really functioning right already.
Best to keep more than to accidentally blurt too much :P
Though yeah, I'm still waiting for the guy who can make me 脸红心跳 and 小兔乱跳~
First time star-gazing at ADM rooftop x)
A pity the grass was wet and we couldn't just lie on it.
Seems like they spotted Orion and that made me think maybe I shouldn't have dropped astro.
Or maybe not hehe.
Then moved in smaller group in an attempt to watch sunrise.
Haiz.
The sky wasn't cooperative though.
Clouds were too thick to see anything much.
Must do this again and succeed next time!
Can't let all of my sunrise-watching attempts fail so miserably.

Last activity of the night/day was a trip to Japanese Garden!
Feel kinda scammed into going haha but at least it was quality time spent with dear Kallangers ^^
And I got to sight-see there never go before leh!
Mac breakfast and went back to pack.
It's so good to know someone who drives xP

I'm growing real fond of this group of people :)
