A pretty damn badass win

1345h: Tired of waiting for the closing ceremony to start. Lies down on bench.
1346h: Chairperson for SISC organizing committee pops by

"You guys are Hwachong right? I'm here to inform you that you guys have to present during the closing ceremony."
*Me looks at her*
"Er, yar. Don't tell anyone yet.."

1347h: Theron stops drawing his caricatures and does imba shit on his computer to brighten up our already beautiful ppt.
1348h: I calls Ernest.

"Ernest?"
"Yes?"
"I have bad news for you."
"What?"
"We have to present later. Come back to NJC"
(Ernest go poolside buy coke)
"What? XIAN, need to present. Can I come over at 2?
"NO. Just come"
"..Okay, bye."

1352h: I calls Ernest again

"I'm about to cross the bridge!"
"Okay, then hurry up."
"Does this mean we are the top 5 teams?"
"No, we're the TOP."
"Oh, okay. Bye."

1356h: Everyone was sitting around the canteen table.
Theron: "We're supposed to be happy lah."
"Yar Hor."
Ernest: "Why must get championship? Get distinction can already, at least noneed go up present."

At least something after 4 days of failure and demoralization.
And 2.5h of sleep yesterday. Ernest accidentally fell asleep =\
It was pure hard determination and the "just do it" spirit.

Thanks NJC and nice chaperons (ZheYuan and Jade) for making the past 4 days a little bit brighter, and the 5th day shining.

At least Hwachong got a bit of something, and I got my fighting spirit back.
