so there. thats a brief description about ANZAC day and why i have another holiday after my two week holiday. lolx today albert house people went out and enjoyed ourselves !! there was pong, sikai, andrew, poh, syafiq, neo, christine wong, tiana, wenqi and myself ! we went bowling, drank boost juice then went to watch a movie (scary movie4) boost juice took quite a long time so we had to rush to finish our last game before we could go to our movie cos its quite ex. 9 dollars for the first game with shoes then 6 dollars for each next game. but it was really fun. we thrashed the guys in the first game but the second game, it was a battle against time, so .... we lost unfortunately cos people like andrew and syafiq and neo were on fire. actually ALL THE GUYS were on fire. lolx hoho. anyway, i got 02jam on my comp already but i'm quite sucky at it cos i conclude i have quite retarded fingers. hmmm... and after seeing pro people like jarrod play, i have no mood to continue already hahas. although its quite good to play when you're bored. oh and albert finally lent me 'stairway to heaven' yay-ness well. today was also quite a bad day. chua asked poh and i to join them for lunch but cos we ate lunch at albert house and albert kias were going out together then i didn't join them. i was feeling real bad about it already then they came to the arcade and i felt even more bad. then then i thought it wasn't so bad already, but then they watched the same movie as us and i saw them after it ended. haix. and albert still lent me the dvd. so it made me feel triply bad. haiyah. but in a way, its a good thing right because i know i have friends who don't forget about me. i really thank the Lord for blessing me with friends like adi, albert, cherie, chua, eric, jarrod, lynsey, mabel, melissa, ninghui, shuk. thinking about it makes the loneliness go away cos they always ask me out although sometimes i turn them down because i hang out with albert house people. X) and i also recharged my phone already so yay ! tomorrow i'm getting back lit. results... scary scary. claudio seems to give really low marks. X( well. cheerios people ! lots of love song playing now: little boy- jaycee chan
hello. i don't know if yesterday's post can be seen but don't read it if u can see it because its not important. was just having some mood swing yesterday. well today is ANZAC day. i just had a holiday. its a public holiday. this is what my EAP worksheet says about ANZAC DAY.
ANZAC Day is a day for remembering the people who have served or have been killed in war. it is a national holiday.
the word ANZAC comes from the initials of the Australia and new zealand army corps who trained together in Egypt at the outbreak of WOrld war 1 .
the ANZACS first fought in Turkey at gallipoli, and were defeated. ANZAC day marks their first landing in 1915 at a place now called ANZAc cov.
the first anzac day holiday was celebrated in egypt as well as in australia in 1916.general sir john monash declared a holiday for the troops in the safe defence on the Suez canal. they began the day with a solemn church service, in memory of the soldiers in battle. Then they had all sorts of sporting competitions. At one stage, over fifteen hundred ANZACS went swimming in the Suez canal!
Since world war 1, australians have been involved in world war 2, the korean war and the vietnam war and the gulf war.
buddy number one rocks !
