fun?

One week break's finally here!
went kayaking with some class girls and jermin yesterday. so fun! only ailian and i kayaked the most. haha. actaully it was mostly lian. she's so brave! the only one who dared to leave the group and kayak until just a few meters away from the big ships. haha. i kinda follwed her. it was fun and stuff. but i'll prob have fainted if i capsized. good thing i didnt. haha. thot i saw jellyfish, but i was just some plastic bag floating ard. the sea is so dirty. the govt should do something to clean up the water. i see like chips bag and different coloured plastic bags inthe water, i even saw a man's pant floating by. haha.
it's a miracle that my arms arnt aching today. i strained it lots yesterday, and it was quite tiring, had to stop and rest a few times. think lian got more muscles than me. haha. she can keep going non stop while i lagg far behind trying to catch up. haha. dun mind going back to kayak again. kinda invited my class guys to, but they dun really seem like the sporty kinda. haha. all study and no play kind.
had dinner at bedok after bathing at melody's condo simming pool. she stays like only 10 mins away from east coast. so near right. if i stay so near i'll prob go cycling and stuff everyday. haha.
dinner was good. felt so hungry and tired after that exercise. ken came and joined us after his paintball game at discovery center. paintball sounds like fun. haha. but very expensive. 25 buckeroos. took the train back with lian and her boyboy. and of cos ken sent me home. haha. he was tired too from all that paintball, but he still took me home even though we were at bedok, which is like 10 mins away from his house. haha. sigh....

today having bbq at melody's house. class outing. haha. we should have more holidays, then the class can bond together. heh.

i'm feeling a bit helpless right now. my brother doesnt like this place. and i know he's at a stage where he's still growing and stuff like that, and without my parent's guidance, it's not so good for him. i know our guardian can be a bit too over concerned bout us, but it's good that there's someone there to watch over us. but my bro feels like as if she's too controlling. i dunno if it's a good thing that my parents left. it's prob cos that my sis and i are old enough to take care of ourselves and we are able to get our priorities right, that my bro feels that he too can take care of himself. i'm a bit worried for him.
i know he needs maths tuition, but i think it's cos he doesnt like the teacher that's why he doesnt want to go to the tuition teacher i went to during my sec school days. she's really good and stuff, if not for her i wldnt be able to get my As for both maths. my parents asked me to help my bro and tuition him. but i dun think i'm good enough. it's been already 2 years since i touched maths and i prob already forgot everything there is to integrated algebra and stuff. the easy ones i should be able to cope, but the difficult one is where the challenge comes in.
it would not be very good to ask my parents to come back half way when they are already in the mission field. i support them in going over and stuff. but now maybe the situation has changed a bit when it comes to my bro. he wants all the freedom, he wants to be able to play computer games till anytime he wants, but he just doesnt see that if we allow him to do that, he'll neglect his studies. although he says that he wont. if we allow him to play games whenever he likes, he will be sitting in front of the comp from the time he comes home from school till he goes to bed. his homework would be done in front of the comp and he wont be able to concentrate on studying. i hardly see him in the study room studying for any up coming tests. i'm really very worried and i'm prob not a good sister who would be able to encourage him to study.
