The Clique things build up. and i am not happy at what i was told last-minute regarding church camp. i mean i was told i was playing for church camp, but the arrangement was for me to play just for one session, with an adult worship leader.and then this sunday what i shall now commonly refer to as The Clique (whom i despise only when i have anything to do with them) ambushed me and said i have to play the keyboard for them for ALL sessions during church camp, because other than the one above, they would be taking over. [brief demographics/psychographics of The Clique: 16-17-year-olds whose guys and girls openly flirt with each other, monopolise the overall youth ministry by their exclusivity (and them leaving everyone else out), who are nuts over Hillsongs and Planet Shakers (and 'boo' everything else) and unfortunately, make it a point to sing songs only by those 2 artists ever since they took over the worship section until it comes out of your ears. side note: oh and one of the girls conveniently backstabbed me and encouraged slanderous talk among them during our last church camp.] now that, of course, raised suspicions, because ever since they found out that i found out what they were talking about me behind my back, they have tried to stay out of my way and i out of theirs. so of course, upon questioning, their reason for suddenly wanting me around them is because their resident pianist (aka. initiated member of The Clique) could not come along for the camp. and they conveniently, with mock overtones of "eh you forgot to tell her ah?" (while nudging each other) forgot to tell me that they have a practice this friday (usually they have a 'practice' aka. 'flirting session' every week) to prepare the songs before the camp commences. i'm not even sure if i can make it. and if i come i am sure it is going to be a waste of time mostly, as it used to be. i just got the list of songs yesterday and the songs are all..*choke *choke *gag *gag. no prizes for guessing which artists' songs they chose. and most of the songs are even from the same album...so how boring/unimaginative is that? i don't even know some of them so they gave me the mp3's to learn them up. and to make matters worse, i also found out on sunday that one very memorable member of The Clique would be bunking in with me -- the girl who defamed me at the last camp. which just makes my day worse and it makes me not look forward it at all. (the arrangement is such because they don't have single-room booking and the smallest room they have is a double, so i had been on the waiting list for another roommate and i'm sorry it had to be her.) well at least i'll be that much smarter about The Clique's intentions...and I will definitely not make the same mistake of hanging out with them in my free time. fortunately, this time we are going to genting so i will have PLENTY to do without them (roller coaster rides, here i come!). |
