I went to Benjamin's house once more, this time with Jun Yong and Kumar, to finish our D and T mindmaps, and to play games too. We started off doing our mindmaps, compiling our information and shortening it into a mindmap. Then, when we finished off our mindmap, we went to play table-tennis. Yes, Benjamin does have a table-tennis table at home. He also let us use his MacBook to play a game called "MapleStory". We played for quite long, til about 6.30pm before we left his house... Oh, and i seem to have improved at table-tennis.
When I got home my parents were not in, as they went to visit my uncle who is in the hospital due to fungus in his mouth caused by side effects of his chemotherapy. So I stayed at home til night time, and settled my own dinner. I better sleep soon, Scouts is tomorrow morning!

I went to Suntec City today. Got most of my CNY(Chinese New Year) clothes, too, as my Mum asked me if I wanted to meet her and my Dad to buy clothes for CNY. We looked around in the shops, such as Fila, Giordano, Baleno, and many other shops. Looking around and walking so long didn't go to waste, as we finally found clothes for me, and some for my parents. I got 2 new T-shirts, 1 new polo T-shrt, 1 three-quarter length pants and 1 shorts to match my shirts. By the time we were done, it was already about 8pm, and we were all exhausted, especially my parents, who have been at Suntec City since about 11am, "on the hunt" for clothes. We had our dinner at "Yoshinoya" and then we took a taxi back home as it was about to rain.

Today our D and T group went to Benjamin's house to do our D and T project. Our group consists of,needless to say, Benjamin, followed by Jun Yong, Kumar, Howard, Chen Ken and me. Chen Ken however could not come as he had CO(Chinese Orchestra) practice. I heard that the CO members are going to perform at the Mandarin Gardens on Saturday. That explains why they have CO practice today and on Friday and Thursday...
As I was saying, we went to Benjamin's house for our project. We had to set 15 questions for ourselves, based on what we need to consider for the project before doing it. Then, we need to answer 7 of the questions we set. Apparently this task was "deceptively" easy... We thought that it would be so easy we could do it in 10min, but no, it was hard to even think of the questions, and harder to answer them for some reason. We finally finished it 1 hour later, and we then had a little game of table tennis before we all went back.
