ahha. happy birthday annabel! though it's supposed to be over in like, half an hour.
301's having their chalet right now, and lots of other classes already had theirs. and what're threeleveners doing now? what have we done during holidays? slack bah. that's like, our class trademark. but remeber what ms wassan said in the beginning of the year? we're supposed to be the second highest in results. though it's pretty eminent that we're the second LAST, i've got faith we'll be able to revive! like some fan1 shen1 sai4 in competitions. hehh. we're going to mug for our os, fellow sec-3s-going-to-4s people! look out for the 28 of us!
and boxing day's supposed to be present-exchange day. cuz once upon a time, all presents were placed in boxes and it was only until the day after christmas that people got together and exchanged theirs for someone else's. bada-bing!
went to pri sch with bro 2dae, to buy the rest of the missing books. the queue wasnt really lone, like, 20 people bah. but the service was super slow. and aunties were cutting queue and chatting and their kids were wrecking havoc. so, after more than an hour, it was our turn, and it turned out that the bookshop hasn't received the books from the supplier yet! wth. should have asked if the had the books before queueing. there was this mum who went forward to ask and got the books her son needed even without queueing. how convenient.
well. another day wasted. cold days make me want to sleep.

merry christmas!
merry christmas people!
haha. i'm back. not too long a break, i suppose. and no, i didn't go overseas whatsoever, if you were thinking along that line. juse didn't really have the time to sit down and blog properly, and i don't think it's fair to you guys if i do my entry hastily. so here i am, on christmas night, at home.
well, that's not really saddening, because i had an outing earlier! haha.
brought my bro to jp to watch night at the museum in the afternoon. 1.50 show. bought tix with gift vouchers from my aunt (not a xmas gift) then went for lunch at pizza place. 1 student set each. and when paying, you've got to show your student pass, or else pay $2 more. lol. we did have ours though.
had extra time so we walked round before going into the cinema. and they use 10 mins for advertisements.
rather nice show, 2 hours, but didn't feel like it was that long. for the plot, go read movie reviews. or watch it yourself. i think i'll give it 3.5 stars out of five.
bro said he was hungry after the movie, so went back to pizza place for potato pudding. it would be nice if they didnt put in the mixed vegetables, you know, the corn and carrot and peas mixture.
heard from a show, where a doctor said that the mixed vege's a good addition to kids' food, because they like the colours and thus will eat vege. oh please. how many of you out there have to actually be forced to even take a nibble of the garish little things? my bro was actually removing every singale one out of his pudding, and mind you, that's alot.
i don't know why they invented it anyway. seems like it's a cheap alternative for hawkers to incorporate vege into their food, so it'll be considered "the healthier choice". lol. food'll much much better without the things. and i dont think peas and carrot and corn, processed and removed of most, if not all, of its nutrients, are considered vegetables.
and cooks generously put it into kids; food, thinking that they really like it. i suppose the average baby, upon seeing the yellow and orange and green, will first be tempted to try, but after the first time, would not want any thing like those in his/her mouth. but parents, when they first see their kids eating those, will think that they like it nad buy more, then make the child eat them. wth.
and some food stalls even add cream to the mixed vege and sell it as salad.
but of course there are some people out there who love the bright little cute vege, like the friend of amber. and i suppose it's minority. hope.
i'm not going to break the rice bowls of the manufacturers of the food, so no petition wil be set up to ban the production in singapore. lol. but boy, do those vege turn me off.
went ikea yesterday, and got a drape for my room! click on the drape word to see it. actually wanted to upload the pic but somehow can't. maybe they copyrighted it? haha. the real thing looks better than what's in the pic. ikea meatballs are nice! but my mum doesnt like it. and their nasi goreng has the mixed vege too. saw loads of looks-like-delicious food, but didnt try. haha. the refrigerated stuff lah, cakes, pies, salads.. shall try some the next time i go, which is like, not very soon?
plaza sing supposedly has a shuttle bus service at the bus stop at tiong bahru road, which they say is opp. tiong bahru mrt station. but, the bus stop opp. redhill mrt is tiong bahru road, and they hung a poster there saying that the shuttle service is opp tiong bahru mrt at tiong bahru road! confusing. maybe they hung the same thing at the bus stop opp. tiong bahru mrt too.
discovery centre visit with family on saturday. inside the things cannot take pic, security guard siad. but, inside so dark, oso hard to take pic lah! they had a "so singapore" video, and one of the ns men looked greatly like aloysius! haha. no jerry though. maybe see wrongly. don't like that video, too much singlish. where got people say full singlish one? like, it's damn fake, damn aunite and damn embarrasing singapore, as if our 4.1 million population cannot even speak a speck of proper english. and the dancers arh, the movements super small lah! ugly..
they've got interactive games which you play in teams, but the pace's too slow for comfort. left one halfway. played that one only. their movies arent bad, but i think the misadventures in 3d one doesnt really have a plot. like, it's just the 3d stuff that keeps people sitting there. the adrenaline rush and wired to win not bad. haha. i shall try skydiving one day.
not really worth sacrificing your time to go, but it's okay for casual visits. cuz if you go there with high expectations, most probably you'll leave disappointed. their safti bus tour doesnt promise much too. like, where's lunch at the cookhouse as stated in the brochure? and the guide doesnt concentrate. said, "the sports hall has four basketball courts, one volleyball court and one basketball court." lol. so it has five bb courts and one vb vourt? dunno.
got a dragon painted on my arm, face painting's part of the christmas thing there. dunno why, but most people end up painting their arms instead of their faces at such booths. thought dragons were ahlian, but they didnt have other stuff complicated enough. what's the point of getting people to draw hearts and ribbons or flowers and butterfies when you can actually do them yourself? haha. halfway through, i though i should actually ask them to draw me an octopus. don't know what got into me.
buffet steamboat and bbq dinner on friday, at chin huat at marina south. started at 6.30 and finished 2 hours later. lol. didnt eat much of the seafood stuff, had more of their tapioca dessert. nice hor! went to count tiles leading to the beach place. 6859 or smthn. haha.
going swimming tomorrow, then i'll hibernate till school reopens. hope to go out some more though, what're holidays if you stay cooped up at home being a couch potato? yes, of course teachers, i havent forgotten to study. haha.

arm.
well. went to ma kuang to see a doc for my arm. laoshi actually said to go for accupuncture, but i decided to let the doc decide.
and the doc say just 推 abit and 拉松 can liao. lol. push and pull at the same time. then he did stuff that laoshi already did for me, the 推-ing part. then he 拔罐-ed, like, placed a little glass jar at where it hurt and used a suction thing to suck the air out, making the skin swell inside. then when he took it out there were like blood clots in the shape of a circle, where the jar was. lol. and he said it'll take two or three days to go off. then he put a bandage on my arm, and now it looks like that.

haa. shan't let you see what's under the bandage, it doesnt look nice.
went jp with my bro after that. to see the 15 feet log cake. actually thought it was 15 feet high, tuned out to be that long instead. chey. and the dancing christmas trees arent nice cann. went scoopz to get ice cream for him then walked around to see what i can get for ppl for christmas. got myself something too! then went down and joined the queue for log cake. sorta cut queue-ed, but there wasnt any obvious one so it's not counted. but anyway, got our slice and a bag of cookies each then sat down to eat and went home.
and the lady at the wallet shop was nice! gave me a bigger bag so i can put all my other stuff in(:
had to bathe with one hand cuz i'm not supposed to get the bandaged part wet. for four days. it's not easy, i tell you.
shall end the post here ba. arm hurts like a super big blue-black. it actually is lah.

sec4'06 ord
i've got a little more than half an hour before i 1) go sleep, or 2) go watch tv. so i shall share my time with you guys before i decide on what i want to do.(:
miss yeo didnt come today as promised. wei song didnt come for dance like laoshi said he would. not all sec fours came back today.
sec fours ord today. by the time you reach this blog, you must have read about it for umpteen times, so i shall not describe the event. go read the other blogs for that. haha.
earlier today, i drafted a message in my phone, saying that "if there's anything i want the sec fours to know, it's to thank them for memories, because every batch leaves a different impact on dance." the sec four batch hit me as a pretty slack group. maybe it's because we didnt have much to do, chingay earlier this year and ndp following. so we didn't really have the chance to see them armoured.
but i cried during ord. the same statement kept running through my mind. "it'll be my turn next year." those were tears of fear, tears of uncertainty. fearing for what will happen throughout the next year, unsure of our abilities. will we be able to leave dance as a successful society? or will we make it fall? will we be remembered for the effort we put into dance, or for the ugly side of us? will we be able to meet expectations?
they're still unanswered. as they walked down the aisle, it was a feeling of lonliness. we're officially on our own now, sec 3s. hands were shook, hugs were given, tears were cried. it's the same every year, but the feeling this time round's different. i've never felt this way before. somebody tell me what it's supposed to mean?
i'm not really close to the sec fours. just that dallan likes to hit my head. and we've got the same bag model of different colour. haha. other than that i think the rest are just random people whom i randomly talk to and have randomly met in my life. still, seeing them leave's difficult. cuz it'll be my turn next.
vitamin c's graduation says it well, "I keep thinking times will never change/ Keep on thinking things will always be the same/ But when we leave this year we won't be coming back/ No more hanging out cause we're on a different track", "Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down/ These memories are playing like a film without sound", "As we go on/ We remember/ All the times we/ Had together", "I keep, keep thinking that it's not goodbye/ Keep on thinking it's a time to fly"
of course there are much more deeper feelings waiting to be expressed, but they are too bombastic to be reduced to words.
the time will come soon, the time that we love and hate. we'll move further in life, but still put down things that have been with us for a period of time. it's a matter of letting go, but sometimes it's not that easy.
i've never stayed in a cca for more than three years. in p2, i was in drama, then computer club in p3, robotics from p4 to 6, swimming from p5 to 6 and calligraphy in p6. yes i had three ccas when i was p6. haha. then in secondary school, dance's lasting four years. i think it's the duration that forges the ties.
and i realised my ccas are pretty random. like, no link whatsoever. maybe i'll consider a sport when i go jc, tho my mum prefers that i go back to digital stuff. haha. we'll see.
we shall do the proper post now.
didn't dance much cuz of my arm, didn't wrap it cuz felt there was no need. then people thought it's healed. like, miracle healer that takes only two days? lol.
was supposed to have buffet at 3, so didn't have proper lunch, drank the milk i brought, ate biscuits wenjie gave me(thanks(:), and ate biscuits that i put into the tin. haha. then i prepared syrup for them too. but can't drink cuz it's cold): told 3 sec 1 guys to go wash the cups, but they ended up puling more people. nvr listen to instructions. then angeline wanted to help too, but i told her to leave it to the guys. "girls help at home, guys help in school." doesnt make sense lah, but wuz rather suitable for the situation.
then suddenly before we went down to perpare for buffet cuz sec 3s were serving, wenjie came up to me and said, "about just now hor, thank you." then i went, "huh? what did i do?" then he said cuz i asked them to go wash the cups. lol. you're welcome wenjie.
buffet was rather successful, packed three boxes or rice and one box on vege after that. seniors ate the fried rice, but i think they left the vege. cuz it didn't look too appetizing bah. haha. and we emptied the fruit punch into out syrup dispenser. haha. if only we were supplied well prepared cold fruit punch every single dance prac.
well. and i told mr foo to cry when i graduate. (:
miss yeo didnt come today as promised. wei song didnt come for dance like laoshi said he would. not all sec fours came back today.
sec fours ord today. by the time you reach this blog, you must have read about it for umpteen times, so i shall not describe the event. go read the other blogs for that. haha.

they're still unanswered. as they walked down the aisle, it was a feeling of lonliness. we're officially on our own now, sec 3s. hands were shook, hugs were given, tears were cried. it's the same every year, but the feeling this time round's different. i've never felt this way before. somebody tell me what it's supposed to mean?
i'm not really close to the sec fours. just that dallan likes to hit my head. and we've got the same bag model of different colour. haha. other than that i think the rest are just random people whom i randomly talk to and have randomly met in my life. still, seeing them leave's difficult. cuz it'll be my turn next.
vitamin c's graduation says it well, "I keep thinking times will never change/ Keep on thinking things will always be the same/ But when we leave this year we won't be coming back/ No more hanging out cause we're on a different track", "Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down/ These memories are playing like a film without sound", "As we go on/ We remember/ All the times we/ Had together", "I keep, keep thinking that it's not goodbye/ Keep on thinking it's a time to fly"
of course there are much more deeper feelings waiting to be expressed, but they are too bombastic to be reduced to words.
the time will come soon, the time that we love and hate. we'll move further in life, but still put down things that have been with us for a period of time. it's a matter of letting go, but sometimes it's not that easy.
i've never stayed in a cca for more than three years. in p2, i was in drama, then computer club in p3, robotics from p4 to 6, swimming from p5 to 6 and calligraphy in p6. yes i had three ccas when i was p6. haha. then in secondary school, dance's lasting four years. i think it's the duration that forges the ties.
and i realised my ccas are pretty random. like, no link whatsoever. maybe i'll consider a sport when i go jc, tho my mum prefers that i go back to digital stuff. haha. we'll see.
we shall do the proper post now.
didn't dance much cuz of my arm, didn't wrap it cuz felt there was no need. then people thought it's healed. like, miracle healer that takes only two days? lol.
was supposed to have buffet at 3, so didn't have proper lunch, drank the milk i brought, ate biscuits wenjie gave me(thanks(:), and ate biscuits that i put into the tin. haha. then i prepared syrup for them too. but can't drink cuz it's cold): told 3 sec 1 guys to go wash the cups, but they ended up puling more people. nvr listen to instructions. then angeline wanted to help too, but i told her to leave it to the guys. "girls help at home, guys help in school." doesnt make sense lah, but wuz rather suitable for the situation.
then suddenly before we went down to perpare for buffet cuz sec 3s were serving, wenjie came up to me and said, "about just now hor, thank you." then i went, "huh? what did i do?" then he said cuz i asked them to go wash the cups. lol. you're welcome wenjie.
buffet was rather successful, packed three boxes or rice and one box on vege after that. seniors ate the fried rice, but i think they left the vege. cuz it didn't look too appetizing bah. haha. and we emptied the fruit punch into out syrup dispenser. haha. if only we were supplied well prepared cold fruit punch every single dance prac.
well. and i told mr foo to cry when i graduate. (:

right arm.
pulled my right arm muscle two days ago. first day wuz okay, then second day got laoshi to look at it. he said it wasnt too serious, just asked me to not move it too much.
then this morning it hurt like mad. so during dance laoshi wrapped my arm up with the triangular bandage. then everybody was either looking at me or asking what happened. haha. aa!
but it really hurts cann. even as i'm typing now. i think arm pulls are worse than leg pulls, comparing the time i pulled my left leg and now my right arm. i think it's cuz i'm right-handed? haha.
and i cant do stuff i can do with my right hand with my left hand! like, this morning i tried to stir my drink with my left hand but realised i cant draw circles with it. haha. then i tried using my left hand to brush my teeth but can't too. lol. but i can never hold an ice cream cone with my right hand. weird right?
printed my exco posts and the dance post for weicong. cuz his comp broke down and he cant see what people are heavily discussing. haha.
i think we cultural people really disappointed laoshi today, cuz it turned out that only pretty little people could guo bei, less than half of the 20++ he expected. i did try, but, haha, didnt realise it would be that important so didn't try to perfect it. but anyway, zi ang's doing it with yinghui now, so it's fine.
brandon, don't talk bout me guo-ing bei with one hand lerr arh. haha.
so we finished all our biscuits today, then laoshi had the grads go get the worst tasting biscuits so we won't eat biscuits for the taste, like we do for the lemon or cashew nut biscuits, but to fill our growling stomachs. haha. and they came back with cream/soda biscuits, those square big ones, and marie biscuits. and it didn't get wiped out. haha.
oh. and somebody feedbacked that exco's not being fair. like when modern dancers were slogging their guts out during prac last week, we pumped alot. but this week, when the cultural dancers, including chairman and disc and welfare and props, had their tiring practices, we weren't pumped that hard. so this way, it isnt fair to modern? well, but all of us are tired out this week lah. maybe the exco did it for the good of all.
oh, thanks constance for the christmas present!(:

replies to exco suanning in dance blog.
well. so after i began discussing exco issues, my blog has received more visitors. lol. that aside.
had a "debate" with a senior about my entries not long ago. then he ended by saying that we've got "real different views". haha. that's exactly what the debate's for? dunno, but he did start it, like random convo out of nowhere when we dont actually talk.
maybe my words dont make sense to seniors who've been thru much more than me. they've got more experiences, whether successful or not. but still, it's a few years more of lessons learnt. therefore i don't think it's wrong for them to talk to me about my views, since there are certain times, which are rather often in actual fact, that i make mistakes. jiabin was once jokingly scolded more making so much mistaks in the bio paper when he was the bio rep, but he just answered, "people do make mistakes." yes, that saying is true, and i dont think it will change, no matter how hard one tries. not like a saying i mentioned in one of my previous posts.
also, because people do make mistakes, i'm sure our seniors, too, have times when people correct them. but then again, many mistakes are often left unsolved because of various reasons. nevertheless, it's about "face" matters mostly.
by posting my disagreement with the dance society on my blog, it does not mean that i totally cannot accept or am not the slightest bit moved by the exco. posting complains instead of praises has its uses too. you think if i were to tell everyone how impressive the exco is, i'll get more readers? haha. but of course me posting comments of exco's not to draw bees to honey. it's just giving me a platform to let out what i've been keeping throughout the day. you may say that there are better means like writing or talking to somebody else, but, haha. i type faster than i write or talk. and it's been proven.
he asked why i seem to keep driving at the credits of leading dance. as in, what i get back in return for leading dance. well, everything's talking bout credit yea? if you work and dont get money, will you still do it when there's another job that you can do and pays? it's not necessary for an eagles award from leading dance, seeing the society rise is already a pretty good form of credit. but, will you do it wholeheartedly if you're not confident of it and people around you are not lending hands? well, maybe, like he said, people who are willing to sacrifice will do. but does sacrificing mean giving up your precious youth? even though in the society now, much of our youth has already gone down the drain, but is it worth it to spend it to improve a cca that you're officially part of for four years, when you can spend the time to inject knowledge into you brain that will help you through your life?
i don't know. i've been brought up to think that studies are much much more important in official schooling years than ccas. and i'm forbidden to visit my primary school. well, maybe it's because of this that i don't really feel much for nhds, cuz i know i won't be a part of it after i grad anyway, not like some seniors who come back frequently can help out with stuff.
so to sum things up, i'll still continue posting my thoughts, be it bout exco or anything i feel worthy of discussion, in my blog, and yes, you people out there are welcome to share your feelings(:
so yea. let's continue with today's post.
went on gao qiao today, after three days of mia. fell when khoon hui held me. haha. not your fault lah, dont worry. i dont think you will anyway(: then got okay and was on gao qiao when they jihe-ed cultural for pt. cuz i started late, like at 5+ when pt was near 6. farni expressions from people lah. junyang was looking at me and tou-xiaoing, cuz i cant possibly do 20 push ups and sit ups plus running round the school in gao qiao. then while i was walking to jihe some people were like,"jihe lah, still walk! later pump you arh!" lol. cuz i cant sit down, siaun went, "attitude arh! jihe stand up!"
but i did go down the gaoqiao in the end. thank you peixuan who helped me fall and realised my hands were super cold. haha.
was at ma bu for 3 mins. i think it's rather tedious for starters. like, 180 seconds leh. gradual increase from maybe a minute would achieve better results.
seems like there isnt much today. pai-ed abit of the dance but paused cuz laoshi wuznt feeling too okay and went home. get well soon!(:
oh, in case you guys think im biased against exco, there are good points bout them. they make sure we get our cha shui every prac, and biscuits too, and dont complain even though we wipe nearly a tin clean everyday. they keep the dance practice in order too, like making sure everybody has something to do by making us to regimens like gym. other times we could be slacking like mad while others sweat it out with practise of different stunts, like cai gao qiao. of course, we must not forget that they are the ones who remind us to drink water with pinches of salt added to keep our body well-hydrated. haa. or well-drained in geog terms. soon, after the syf, they will also be the ones to announce teh results to us, and whether good or bad, they're the ones to shield us from the enormous impact. so, thank the exco, people!(:

open season i max!
went omni theater to watch open season with my family ytd. bathed in school and changed in macs. i followed the rules okay!
haha. cuz the rule says we cant change into outside clothes in school. dunno why.
yea so while i went to change, supeng helped me get bubble tea then we went mrt station.
had dinner at jec kopitiam. haha. all the stuff we ordered weren't that nice.
left for omni theater to watch the 9pm show. four tix at $12 each. dad paid cuz it's his bdae. lol.
imax de open season abit weird lah. dunno. made the movie seem short. like, one moment i just sat down, the other moment the movie ends. haha. when the show ended we were like going to other seats to see from where the view would be better. hehh. but i don't think we'll be there anytime soon. i dont like those documentary thingy.
oh. and i didn't go on gao qiao yesterday. wanted to, already took my shoes and preapred the gaoqiao, but then there were more important things to do like imparting the knowledge of cai gao qiao to others. so i guided supeng while she tried to learn. haha. now i know what a hard time it was for the people who held me. realli trains your arm muscles man. but at least they had fun learning. hope supeng gets it right fast and goes on the three fet one. haha. it's a joy watching others learn and improve. jane has natural talent and went on gaoqiao without having taught! so i think she'll be able to go on the three feet one real soon. like, monday?
but cultural has started the pai-ing of our dance. and we've got to bring a towel as our sleeping blanket on mon. haha. we've got a funny storyline! don't know if that'll get us a gwh, but i'll definitely give it my all. dont want regrets again.
and oh, if you were looking forward to exco suan-ing, i'm afraid i'm feeling rather nice now to do it. maybe tomorrow, after i go fishing and jogging. (:

3rd day syf prac
so, today's the third day of you syf prac, we've survived 30 hours out of the hundred for the whole syf training. good job dancers!(:
while modern ppl were doing their dance, cultural had guys and gals paired up for shuang ren wu. all guys choose a gal. well. yea i got chosen. by zi ang. lol.
then we tried guo bei and tiao bei. both as sucky lah. maybe it's my fault. or his. haha. both of us not very strong in foundation mah.
after a few rounds we stopped, then he and chenxin tried to be funni. they did, the both of them, shuang ren wu stuff, then decided that a certain kind of "stunt" was rather fun, so zi ang as me to handstand to his shoulder then continue. wth. i dun even know what he want to do with me lah. so i said no. haha. i dont think i can realli trust him with my life. nor chenxin. haha. or anyone who doesnt explain what i'm going to do.
continued gao qiao from ytd. flash back, i started gao qiao ytd, with the one foot de. stable ler then i went on the three feet one, whereby i fell awkwardly, in a weird way that we shouldn't fall in. meiting said i crossed my legs or smthn. haha. but at least i didn't fall back like jing er did. i just fell down. like, downwards. so, yea. i went on the three feet gao qiao 2dae, then slowly slowly lor. kept holding on to the wall in case yesterday repeats. falling's not nice even though we've got strong knee guards yea? lost balance quite a few times, but thyankfully there was the ever-trusty wall and a few people, namely stephanie, xinyu, ellisse, mel, yinghui, zhiyong, alyssa, siian. not in any order. thanks everybody!!(:
ellisse has a phobia of gao qiao after her fall ytd, so i took over her place in cny performance, and i'm not sure if i can overcome my own. haha. slowly bah. mel says i'm rather stable, ellisse says i've got to take bigger steps. haha. i'm ellisse's tu di!! or tu mei.
went for lunch then went on gao qiao again, for two or more hours. went back to hall and one, then laoshi asked us to sleep at 2+. came down to the floor then slept with the gao qiao still tied. haha. then when we were supposed to do stretching that involved shifting a leg across the other, i couldnt do cuz of the gao qiao. haha. we were supposed to roll to laoshi after the nap, but i cannot roll so i crawl over. laughed like mad. and eugene's crazy. thanks wenjie for the guidance throughout. and thank you jing er and i think jing hui for helping me massage after the nap.((:
took off gao qiao and did the liu xing thing, rebe says i'm a fast learner.((: but still got long way to go yea? i've onli learnt one of the how many things we've got to do. haha. i'll learn them, slowly. must be positive!!
ate lemon biscuits. we almost finished a whole tin 2dae yea? greedy people. or hungry hardworking people.
after dance, as usual, they asked who wuz late, and onli # had no valid reason. whole exco was on stage, then guy discipline asked for #'s reason. # replied that # already told chairman. apparently exco already knew the reason lah. then guy discipline asked # to say it out. # hesitated then said it out. kinda personal so i shant put it here. i know how to respect.
so, #'s case turned out to be because of disrespect, you can make you imagination run wild to figure out what. while # was saying, i wuz like mouthing, in hope that any of the exco members will see, to let # stop. hello. if it's personal, just say it's personal, and since you guys think it's serious enough, then just pump lah! what for you go make # say out?
like, if i'm late cuz my granddad's in critical condition and may be leaving soon, and i accompanied him to hospital and became late for dance, i've got to let the whole society know? or if my dad barred me to go out because i quarrelled with him and i wuz late, i've gotta let the dance society know?
please lah. show a bit of respect can? it's pretty obvious you exco want to let #'s misdeeds to be made known lor. what for? # must have realised #'s mistakes, and who are you to interfere with #'s personal matters? even mrs wong didn't make # explain to the whole society, she just wanted to know the reason as a teacher in-charge. and if the chairman thinks he wants to know, so be it. if the exco wants to know, so be it. chariman can tell them.
but why make # announce the matter to over a hundred people in the society? why do people get outcasted? because certain people are not willing to show respect.
well, gal disc heard my objection, "why make a family matter be known to the whole society?", but she just said, " you bushuang then come up and say lar!!" what's that, blackmail? go up as in to the same level as exco, then they can say i'm challenging their authority. being part of the executive committee doesnt give you the right to barge into our personal space.
exco, so what? you did say we're supposed to lead as a whole sec 3 cohort yea? actually. i don't get why we've got to set aside 11 people for exco. before boting, everybody was leading, the sec 3s were united, and it was great that way. everything was well-planned, everything was done, everybody cooperated. with exco, everything's falling apart. there are people who think the current exco's not up to expectations. i said people, yea? so it's not just me. so, since we could do everything nicely when everybody was equal, why not let it stay that way? why label 11 people with posts and expect the 30+ people to do everything together as a whole? is that fair to the others?
yes, you may say that nothing's fair in the world. but if you know that, why are you so braindead to follow it and not try to change the saying and attempt to put everybody on the same level?
but, of course, there's already an exco now, so i dont think much can be done. if you strip these 11 ppl of their posts, they'll be bushuang and we'll still fall apart. still, it's worth some time of yours to think about.
to the rest of nhds, if any of you actually read my blog, these posts are not supposed to make you go against exco. we're civilised people, so please give them their due respect, so we can work as one whole dance society and achieve our goals. try your very best, give it your all or you'll realli regret it. esp sec 2s this year, cuz you only have ONE chance at syf. i admit, i didn't give my all in oai oai oai, so i wasnt realli elated upon the news of gwh, cuz i know it didnt come from me. really people, give the dance all you've got, but still, remember to take care of yourselves yea?((:
while modern ppl were doing their dance, cultural had guys and gals paired up for shuang ren wu. all guys choose a gal. well. yea i got chosen. by zi ang. lol.

so, #'s case turned out to be because of disrespect, you can make you imagination run wild to figure out what. while # was saying, i wuz like mouthing, in hope that any of the exco members will see, to let # stop. hello. if it's personal, just say it's personal, and since you guys think it's serious enough, then just pump lah! what for you go make # say out?
like, if i'm late cuz my granddad's in critical condition and may be leaving soon, and i accompanied him to hospital and became late for dance, i've got to let the whole society know? or if my dad barred me to go out because i quarrelled with him and i wuz late, i've gotta let the dance society know?
please lah. show a bit of respect can? it's pretty obvious you exco want to let #'s misdeeds to be made known lor. what for? # must have realised #'s mistakes, and who are you to interfere with #'s personal matters? even mrs wong didn't make # explain to the whole society, she just wanted to know the reason as a teacher in-charge. and if the chairman thinks he wants to know, so be it. if the exco wants to know, so be it. chariman can tell them.
but why make # announce the matter to over a hundred people in the society? why do people get outcasted? because certain people are not willing to show respect.
well, gal disc heard my objection, "why make a family matter be known to the whole society?", but she just said, " you bushuang then come up and say lar!!" what's that, blackmail? go up as in to the same level as exco, then they can say i'm challenging their authority. being part of the executive committee doesnt give you the right to barge into our personal space.
exco, so what? you did say we're supposed to lead as a whole sec 3 cohort yea? actually. i don't get why we've got to set aside 11 people for exco. before boting, everybody was leading, the sec 3s were united, and it was great that way. everything was well-planned, everything was done, everybody cooperated. with exco, everything's falling apart. there are people who think the current exco's not up to expectations. i said people, yea? so it's not just me. so, since we could do everything nicely when everybody was equal, why not let it stay that way? why label 11 people with posts and expect the 30+ people to do everything together as a whole? is that fair to the others?
yes, you may say that nothing's fair in the world. but if you know that, why are you so braindead to follow it and not try to change the saying and attempt to put everybody on the same level?
but, of course, there's already an exco now, so i dont think much can be done. if you strip these 11 ppl of their posts, they'll be bushuang and we'll still fall apart. still, it's worth some time of yours to think about.
to the rest of nhds, if any of you actually read my blog, these posts are not supposed to make you go against exco. we're civilised people, so please give them their due respect, so we can work as one whole dance society and achieve our goals. try your very best, give it your all or you'll realli regret it. esp sec 2s this year, cuz you only have ONE chance at syf. i admit, i didn't give my all in oai oai oai, so i wasnt realli elated upon the news of gwh, cuz i know it didnt come from me. really people, give the dance all you've got, but still, remember to take care of yourselves yea?((:

stadium pics
photo blog updated! for those who cant find the link, it's at the profiles page. haha.
dance practices for syf starting next week! for two continuous weeks, 8am to 6pm or smthn, so i think i wont be online too often. but do look out for me yea? haha.
it's the next syf already, as if it was yesterday we left classes during recess, reported to hall, had final runs, changed into costumes and made up, then left for kallang where we performed the gold-with-hounours dance and got the results on sports day.
but will nhds clinch at least one gwh this time? or will we end up with just golds, silvers, bronze or even cops? it's all up to us, they say.
i think, we need every single member to realise that they each play an important role in the Society, thus giving their all in every single practice. of course, that doesnt mean going all the way till people sustain injuries. keep injury rates as low as possiblek? take loads of care.
and exco. they may be just 11 people who seem useless on the outside. despite suan-ing them in one of my previous posts, i have enough confidence in them that they will lead us to greater heights. so, junyang, cheeyew, grace, jun he, xinyu, shana, cheri, jeslyn, meiting, wenjie, chuhan, make sure you guys (and girls) do a good job. dont take it as just because you're holding a minor role of publicity, cosmetics, costumes, welfare or props and think you're just in charge of what your post requires. please. you 11 are supposed to work together and lead the dance society. it's not right for a few people to do most of the jobs, while some are seen mia. you know very well yourselves who those people who havent been doing their jobs are. it's only when we can see the 11 of you united that we, the other 100+ members can work together.
it's not just up to us. it's up to you guys as well.
maybe one last note to exco: please, dont abuse your authority. use it well and use it right.

open house, lousy exco.
ytd's open house really made me see the real image of exco. failures.
note: not that i think i can do a good job being one of them, but they were really disappointing. do not read on if you think you can no longer digest insults i hurl. really bad for your digestive system, believe me.
we were invited to do the dance a first time, with our secretary and ass. costumes head watching. and many more exco ppl were missing cuz they were doing dunno what.
i dont know why they have the right to stand there and watch us dance and give critical analysis. it''s not like they're really fantastic.
but well.
then secretary asked if we were just marking or doing full out.
hello. studio's small. of cuz mark lah.
so everyone (nearly) whispered mark.
then secretary said she wanted to see full out. so i said "studio not big enough, full out may hit people."
then she said "nvm, as zhongyi always said, make space out of no space."
me: "but if there's obvious lack of space there's no way you can ever make space yar?"
and both of them decided to ignore. and proceed with the full out idea they wanted.
secretary's words are dumb. making space out of no space is when there actually can still be space made, e.g. removing stuff in the way. but, look at the studio, my dear secretary. the back portion was made into cupboards, decreasing the area of the studio by at least 5 sq. metres. then we've still got props and lions and the numerous (14) cartons of water. and biscuits and ndp costumes too. and we had bags leaning on the cupboards and lining the space along the mirrors. thus, ultimately, anybody with a 15 year old developed brain can see that there is not enough space for what, 70+ girls with arm radius around them? please lah. be clever.
then they decided that i may make sense and separated us into levels. wow. im surprised yea?
before first performance, like, rather way before and we were gathering at amphi theater with absolutely nothing to do, i needed the washroom. so, with the least respect i could have for the exco, i informed the disc. head "i go toilet."
apparently she comprehended that as a question asking for permission. and screamed "ehh! i never say you can go leh!!"
i went " it'll be no use even if you said i can't go, what!"
please lah. you mean if a person really needs to ease himself, even seconds before a performance, you wont allow him to go, so you'd rather he wet his pants during the performance? furthermore, it wasnt like we were occupied or the performance was seconds away. andand. what i said was supposed to be a piece of information, not a question. sorry if my clever ways made you feel stupid because you weren't able to comprehend.
and after i went back, we waited more before we actually performed. lol.
the day went on with much yelling from our discipline head. nothing much bout the flaws of exco, dont think i would want them to feel more stupid anyway. so i didnt really bother.
after 3rd performance or smthn, somewhere after lunch.
ass. costumes head demanded that everybody go back to studio.
extra packets of rice, 2 cartons of water, extra belts and 1st aid box were in the amphi theater.
me: "who's taking the things there?"
she: "i take lah!"
yea right. ass. head of costumes, was it even input into your brain what the stuff were in the amphi theater? did you think it was possible for you to carry the above mentioned things when all you had were four limbs? you could argue that you could use your teeth as well. fine then, i woulf love to see you lugging the things back to the studio on the forth storey. maybe i could allow you usage of the lift, that is, if you can get the stuff to even the lift lobby YOURSELF.
nevertheless, being nice and all, i decided to help get the stuff up, starting with first aid box, which i had moved into shade because the vials of antidotes for results of torture were being scorched under the menacing afternoon sun.
then welfare head decided to reverse his footsteps and go to the amphi theater and get teh box from me to take it up himself. so i settled with the extra belts and half-filled bottles of water, while sec 1 guys helped with the cartons of water and extra rice packets.
ass. head of costumes of, oh, ass. head of costumes, 您在哪儿? if you saw funni symbols, replace them with "where are you?"
that should be all for the flaws of exco, presented openly on the world wide web. haha.
later that day, or somewhere there, mrs wong came in, saying that a teacher feedback-ed that very little people were purchasing cultural potpurri tickets when dance isnt performing this year. which i think many people already predicted.
year after year, the highlight of cultural pot. has always been dance items. even though it seems as if the guys always put up the same gym sequence, but it still never fails to leave people impressed. so yea. and i heard, during solicitting of ticket sales by the members of the performing groups this year, replies going "dance not performing this year, go for what?"
okay. so mrs wong wuz supposed to persuade us into buying the tickets. or picking up trash, since others apparently dont want them.
i wouldnt say she really succeeded. less than 20 out of the near 100 people purchased tickets. and a senior was spotted mouthing "dont buy lah!" haha.
an advertisement here: the nan hua annual cultural potpurri will be held on 29 november 2006, at victoria theater at 7pm. tickets are priced at $8 and $10. feel free to locate mr cheng in the school for the tickets.

fraser
fraser(the bird, my bro named it) finally has proper food. mum bought bird feed 2dae. haha. took more photos of him/her (nobody can tell, and "it"doesnt sound nice) but i still think he should be released asap. yea. when he can properly fly, that is. let's just make it a he now yea? haha. he keeps flying and dropping down after vigourous flapping of wings for like, 20cm? haha.
2moro's open house. received a stupid relay message saying "try not to bring your own bottle." so i'll bring my mum/dad/bro's? lol. what they actually meant was that there was no need to bring water cuz we've got an abundance of mineral water from various events stored in the studio. and we're supposed to down it by 2moro, or latest 15 dec.
so, yea. another year has passed, and next year tere'll be a whole new batch of sec 1s joining us. and i'll be a sec 4. wow. suddenly the number 4 seems like infinity. i didnt feel the same bout the number 6 before i took psle. argh.
is it really necessary to put stress on oneself to be able to perform well? dunno. i dont remember studying for psle. i just thought i knew everything. and while everyone tried to cram their puny 12 year old brains with last minute information before papers, i brought comics and storybooks. haha. so i landed in nan hua. if i didnt, maybe i'll be in rgs or smthn. or maybe i'll slip down to some bottomline school. shant name any in case somebody sues me.
anyway.
i guess i'm happy in nh. like, interesting class, nice principals, friendly teachers (though not necessarily top-notch). butbut. not a really nice cca yea? haha. maybe i'm the one who's not nice. maybe i can make it nice. i shall try. attempt. experiment and treat everyone like guinea pigs. rubs hands together and gives a sinister smile. hehh.
jiayou all nanhuarians 2moro for open house! remember, it's not just any other exhibition, we're supposed to IMPRESS!!! we're AMBASSADORS of nan hua high and just for one day, we'll be WALKING ADVERTISEMENTS!!!
ahha. i think i'm going bonkers. mrs wong warned us to behave ourselves and not tie our hair right under the noses of visitors in the canteen. yea. and the very typical miss yeo will drill into our minds that we must be civilised. yea.
so go ahead people, be civilised and impress.(:

change
suddenly something sparked off somewhere in the day.
jk left us with great memories yea? anyone really has bad memories bout him?
i dont.
he brought us laughter, entertained us with his funny perspectives of stuff, shares earphones with people from his ipod and ate chips with us. and more and more and more. it's not fair to reduce his days with us to just a few sentences.
the other time he read this extract from a chinese mag in those seductive kinda voice? who wuz there, rmb? we were laughing like mad lah. and none of us thought that would be the last time yea?
then there was the dental checkup. jk, jiabin, me, jeslyn. we were like ponning lesson cuz dental wuz during recess. then listening to his ipod and my nano and chatting. he had a whole set of new stationery i dont think he realli used. then the nurse came out of hte bus thingy and sorta shooed us back to class. i dont think we went up, did we? haha.
then the other time mdm chong confiscated his hp. jiabin wuz like standing up for him and all. then i went to get the phone back from her. she didnt realise he wuznt feeling very well yea? sometimes teachers need to know more but their students.
then glen and glenda with clarissa and emily. he wuz so all-smiley then. we never knew. maybe we did, but didnt want to admit. it didnt look like pure happiness for me. he wuz hiding something, which i never got to find out what. i didn't want to, i dont like bringing sadness out of people. just thought that maybe he'll be fine after some time, and we'll just be a class with 30 people.
never did i know. time wuznt given the chance to heal stuff.
but.
he did leave us with great memories yea?
i want to be like him. no, not the life-ending part. the leaving of memories part.
i want to depart from this world with people saying, "she left us with great memories."
i think im through with this life making people dislike me. i shall start it all over yea?
people, give me a chance and we'll start all over. say yes and say hello to the new steph.(:
thankyou, and sorry for whatever i've done in the past.

dunno.
i don't like holidays. especially in secondary school. two months for me to slack and grow fat. argh. like, it wuz only one month in pri sch. i'd rather have an additional month of school. or even no year end holidays. or maybe a week will be enough, like march or september. i dont like june hol;idays too.
okay. that was weird. yes, somebody here actually doesnt appreciate holidays.
went to school today. had an appointment for lesson with mrs tan cuz i missed her lesson on the 13th, where i went for the school carnival. yepyep. so she told me today between 0930 to 1230. reached school at 0920.went staffroom called her using the extension. no answer. then went music room. saw elaine so asked her to ask mrs tan to come out if she wuz in music room. saed she wuznt in. figured out maybe i wuz too early so waited till 10 and went staffroom call again. no answer. then i stayed in canteen flip amaths, read prev lessons notes then tried making sense out of binomial.
went up again at 11. called and finally somebody answered. saed mrs tan ISN'T IN SCHOOL. good. so i went home.
slept right after lunch. dumb i'm making myself fat. didnt wake up till it wuz time for dinner. read book, watched tv, talked to annabel on the phone, poor girl she's sick. then i'm here.
i shall make tomorrow more eventful. crosses fingers.(:

went up again at 11. called and finally somebody answered. saed mrs tan ISN'T IN SCHOOL. good. so i went home.
slept right after lunch. dumb i'm making myself fat. didnt wake up till it wuz time for dinner. read book, watched tv, talked to annabel on the phone, poor girl she's sick. then i'm here.

update!
first. foreword.
i am sooo wrong with my tag in reply to sk. there actually IS alot to update bout, and i've missed out alot in the four/five/six days i haven't been online. sorry people.
second. here's where the post is.
got my sec 4 books, only that since it's the last year (they say this every year) our supposed maths textbooks are to be used, we've got to order them. so i only got my cl and exercise books that day. that auntie gave me a big orange plastic bag for the books, but i unpacked them and repacked them into my monkey bag and returned the plastic bag to the auntie. wait. that sentence sounds weird, like, grammatically. but nevermind. you get my drift. yea. save the earth!
the other time i went to this eco-discovery trail thingy, they gave us a bio-degradable plastic bag that's supposed to be able to decompose in 6-24 months. so it's now at home and we're waiting to see what happens. lol.
volunteered 2 days of my holidays to backstage work at the school carnival. it wuz actually three days, but the person decided that we were not good enough to help on the last and most important day. so yea. she told us that we weren't needed on the third day.
1st day wuz stupid lah. that pic (person in-charge) asked us to call people for them to report at the stage, but then they were told by another person to report at a later time, so some students were still stuck in lecture halls when we phoned them. so the pic wuz super pissed and we sorta wasted the whole day cuz she took over everything.
2nd day these weird people turned up and acted like backstage workers(too). dont know them, wuznt any get to know session so they did theirs and we did ours. sorta more meaningful to volunteer my day like that, i guess. lunch wuz provided (unlike the previous day) and wuz rather nice too. went for coffee bean with douglas. belgian choc ice blended. when i wuz finished with mine he wuznt even one-third through his white choc dream. lol. yan ru or somebody says that shows our different perspective of money. lol. cuz that thing cost 5.70? dunno. it's coffee bean what.
skip skip skip to somewhere yesterday cuz i cant really rmb what meaningful stuff i've done. not like yesterday wuz a real meaningful day, but yea. at least there's stuff i can talk about.
went toa payoh, saw this pair of ballet flats im getting soon. haa.
then went chinatown. got a skirt. mum says it's for chinese new year. no opinion. i wont have any other functions during the holidays that i can wear it anyway, cuz it's sorta formal.
today. woke up at dunno, 7+ despite sleeping early morning? haa.went market with mum and dad. asked for permission first cuz i dont wanna be lightbulb. mum seemed sorta reluctant but didnt say no. haha.
oh.
friday went to glory pres after dance. like, showered in school first. reached there before 5.27 (meeting time) so went westmall walk walk. then saw ade and jas when i wuz going out, so walked with them. got ice mocha cuz jas chose it. haa. then we left with chiuping. wuz late, movie nite wuz supposed to be at 6. nvm they havent started anyway.
mercy streets. surprising stuff wuz at the end, when two twin brothers who actually didnt look so alike in the movie turned out to be the same actor. haha.
wuz supposed to go for dinner with them but i ended up watching them eat. was hungry, had the money, felt like eating but just didnt want to. doesnt make sense. but well. had bread at home in the end. at 11+. guess i wuz out of my mind.
someone left, but will be back. so now i've got more time for more people, so make good use of these 10 days and ask me out yea? not that i'll definitely agree, but it's worth a try? haha.

dl-ed ie7
downloaded internet explorer 7! well i don't know if it's the latest, cuz i din bother to check for ie8.
finished nearly a third of emaths homework, havent started on a maths. shall do it later i guess.
hols=crowded libraries?
dunno. wuz wondering, cuz i like, read more than 16 library books since beginning of holidays. yes, it's 9 november. haa. i wuz rather surprised myself.
ytd's dance wuz stupid. like, "the sec 4s are having their english papers, which are very important, so we must not make noise." then, what for have dance practice? whispers make sound, or noise since they're not music. the countless "shhhhhs" too. dance cannot clap. jihe can run. hello. barefeet running on parquet floor dont make noise?
oh yar. of course they do. that's why we received numerous complaints.
my mum asks me to go ask mr foo to ban ccas during o level periods. not only that, in my opinion, all other students not taking o levels should not be allowed entry into the school compounds too. feasible?
it may sound selfish to certain people out there, but are you sure you will be able to take your very important o levels in a noisy school compound?
not me.

busy holidays
this yr end hol's quite a hectic one for me. like, i went back to school every single day last week. almost.
mon was cl o lvls and amaths rem. tues went out with people. wed was eco-discovery trail at suntec. rather boring and we met a senior, steven, there. was a councillor and asked if lim lyesim wuz still with us. then talked loads to mrs tan bout the school and mrs tan sounded like she was promoting nh to a parent of a primary 6 student who jus got his/her results and are at our open house, which is, of course, not until 25 november.
back to topic. thurs and fri wuz stock challenge at ngee ann, and we had to report to school at 8. skipped dance on fri. stocks were much more interesting than dumb bunches of people who don't give a damn about me, anyway.
so. stock challenge.
speakers/instructors were teachers from canada. event sponsored by citigroup, managed by learning society.
1st day was mostly theory, rather boring. then we were told the next day we were to be in costumes representing our brokerage, which wuz simply a group of three. me, jiawen and qimin formed a group we called shorties inc., because none of us had height exceeding 155cm. i myself, im rather proud to say, is 150 cm.
so me and jiawen went je to get stuff we need for the next day. costume was set to be grey/black jackets and long pants, because of the low temp of the air con. jiawen made the brokerage sign which had our brokerage name and slogan ("we make your short profits tall") and the main part of our business card, which held out names, office address, contact numer, brokerage name and slogan. i did the aluminium foil stuff. cut out rectangles of alumnium foil for the business card to be stuck on for a border, name tags which held our names, office address, hp numbers, brokerage sname and slogan ("i make you short profits tall" this time) and logo necklaces. our logo wuz a stick figure, so the circle from the head wuz the chain thingy of the necklaces. so, we wore our logo.
day two, we spent time in the toilet while qimin did her hair then mine. cuz we let out hair down and it wuz weird if i let my hair down and did nothing to it, since it isnt layered and looks superly flat. a little hair gel and spray did the trick. then we went back to our office, which wuz just a table and three chairs. stuck our sign, wore our logos. then the thing started.
read newspaper, highlight impt points and note down which stocks will go up and which down. then, decide to buy, sell or hold. yea. that's the basic lah. may sound boring but it's actually rather fun. not going into details or else you guys will drop off into deep slumbers.
following days of hols will still be rather packed. lessons in nov. dance prac on 8 nov and a continuous twoweeks in dec. then i've got backstage duty in expo on 13-15 nov. i volunteered for it, just like i had for the eco discovery trail. so, if you feel like finding me or will be free on the abovementioned dates, head down to expo hall something. dunno which hall but you can contact me on the days from 8am - 5pm. yep. you can even volunteer to go home on the mrt with me after that. cuz nh kindly only provided transport to expo and so i'll have to take the train from the most eastern to the most western end of the mrt line. i'll be looking forward. lol.

cl os
supposedly, it's hols, but most of the sec 3s went to school anyway 2dae. we had no choice, due to the chinese o lvls. 1162, paper 1 and 2. yea. so, armed with dictionaries and our entry proofs, the whole horde of sec threes made their way into the hall, filling the once lifeless place to a space of endless noise, where even after screams and shouts from mr chia for us to be quiet, only a small amount of improvement was seen.
hey. what's with the funni tone im writing in? lol.
okay. so we were made to line up in classes (and index number too, but do you think 311 cares?) and went to our exam rms class by class. mine wuz room 23, the 210'06 classroom. shared same classroom with charmaine ann, cheri, zhengyao n patriot. yuhong wuz late and had mr see and mr peh run with him to the exam room to make sure he wuz in time for the exam. lol.
so, exam exam exam.
after paper one, grabbed my granola bar to ease my hunger. carn eat too much, planned great lunch later. then went down with amber for break, cuz she wanted to eat.
went up late, they oreadi started the paper. realised dictionary under table wuz gone, but din realli give a damn. cuz i couldnt rmb if i took it out earlier. i've got memory the size of a walnut. shelled or not, u decide. not much difference anyway.
so, paper 2 paper 2 paper 2.
after dismissal, went out in search of my dictionary. decided to wait till everyone leaves so i can check on every single dictionary left behind. there was none.
then i saw 2 pathetic dictionaries lying on the floor in the exam room, so decided to take a look. to my horror, mine wuz there, and the cover as almost torn into 2 lengthwise. wow. nvrmind, dunno who to blame anw, carn possibly ask mr foo's police fren to get fingerprinting. so packed it in my bag before whizzing off to clementi pizza hut for lunch.
had traditional bolognaise meal. wonder how traditional it really is. had loads of mozerella cheese, which were like refusing to break and hung in strands even with the noodles already in my mouth, so i guess trying to eat them up wuz a comical sight. aaron and annabel made funny faces.
then there wuz this beautiful reflective blue/green big bug ard 1.5 inch in length on aaron's shoulder. he almost wanted to end its little life with his swiss army knife. from switzerland. yea rite. but he din, of course. the little bug captured our attention for a few minutes, before settling on its next target, the chair of an unknown nh gal. annabel went to tell her, then she sorta screamed. and we laughed.
then we left for school cuz i had a maths at 2.30. the left halfway and went to imm.
after amaths i wuz talling annabel i'll wait for her physics to end at 5.30 then go back with her. then she pulled me into the physics class, where i spent the next hour or so listening to physics, with the external something force and the completing of triangle to find the force. haa. the days when i was a physics rep.
gave mr chow a crunchy cappuchino nougat, then he sent me, annabel, liwen and weihao to central. annabel sent me and liwen to boon lay mrt, then sent me home.
yea. i should start on homework soon. loads of maths.

nice clerks nh has.
TODAY...was an interesting day. yep.
felice needed to go home or smthn. she wuz sorta rushing to leave. so i, being nice, volunteered to lock the door for her for mel. well, since mel wuz the chairman, she's supposed to lock the classroom but i dont know how the key got to felice so, yea.
i chased them all out of the class and got my stuff out too, cuz i wuz going to be late for dance. then, after qingyun and yanbing or somebody left the class, i took a few final glances to see if i was going to lock anybody or anything inside by mistake.
nope, i saw nothing xcept 29 tables and chairs standing on a dirty floor. as usual.
thus, i locked both the front and back doors, returned the keys and went happily (not) for dance.
then. ellisse came and asked if i wuz the one who locked the door. i said yes, then she told me i locked her bag and books in too.
yes, i know. darn it. i did look a couple of times to check.
so i told her i'll go get the keys and get her stuff down.cuz im the responsible one mah.
and that was what i did. and that's where the climax comes in.
before i went down, i told junyang "im going back to class, will be late." then ran. he shot me this quizzical look i never had the chance to say anything about. haha.
went office in attempt to get back the keys i returned less than 5 mins ago. lol.
told mdm norma's little son that i wish to get the keys back. her son's like, assisting the collection of keys. then he saed "wait arh, i ask my mummy."
then mdm norma saed cannot, cuz it's not possible that everytime somebody forgets to get stuff from the class they allow people to retrieve keys they have already returned. so i told her that this girl had her whole bag and stuff stuck up there, together with her books. and she cant go home. true wad, no ezlink and wallet and phone go what home. i mean, like, yes, got people can borrow phone and money from, but still, it's always best to use yours right? and all she had was her uniform and shoes, she cant possibly just take them in her hands right?
then she had a phone call, while i stood there, patiently waiting. she put down the phone after awhile, then we sorta continued squabbling.like, she kept saying i cant get the keys and it was my fault that i din check properly. (hey i did okay. chinese call this gui3 zhe1 yan3, ghost cover eyes in el) then i kept arguing back that i have to get the keys, cuz that girl HAS to go home. then she asked me who my chairman was. i didnt want to pull mel into this shit with me, so i just saed she's in dance. then i asked if the prob ll be solved if i get her down. mdm norma din reply. then she asked mi to go away and not disturb her, if not she key in monetary stuff (which she wuz doing then) wrongly then big trouble.
hey. u give me the key then okay lerr lah!
of cuz i din say that. i told her im wiling to wait til she finishes with her stuff. then she saed, it's no use, she wont get me the keys no matter what.
in my previous experience, when a student needs a key which was returned, the office ll send a staff to go up with the student, open the door and wait till he/she gets his/her stuff, then go down with him/her to return the key. the stdent does not get to touch the key at all.
so i asked mdm norma, since i couldnt see any other person in the office xcept her and ms ban, who's bz, if i could like, sign out the key then return again. she saed cannot, and repeated that it's my fault i should have checked and that she wont give me the key. then she saed that office shorthanded, she cant go up with mi if not office nobody liao. like ms ban not person. gahh.
then D and E came into the office and asked for scotch tape.
mdm norma took this as a perfect opportunity to say " you go out lah, go and dance, i cant give you the key anyway."
then i passed by ms ban, she asked me what wuz happending, then i told her then she saed that since school has ended, can just go home wad. so itold her it wuz dance now, then she saed, dance oso no nid books and bag. take key for wad. then i told her that girl has everything in her bag, w/o money, ezlink card how to go home. she just kept saying it's my fault and i should have checked.
D and E were still waiting for their scotch tape cuz mdm norma wuz still bz with her monetary stuff. they overheard me, then told me, "climb in lah! remove 3 window panes can liao." i replied "u all help me lah." they agreed and ask what class what level and whose things inside. told them lah. then mdm norma went" u go out lah, go and dance. i cannot help you."
fine. then i told D and E that i'll wait for them outside. they came out after sometime empty handed, cuz the tape that the office has cannot stick cardboard de. they wanted it to stick the cartons they were using to get their books home.
so we went up to the sixth floor. there wuz this cleaner uncle with a whole bunch of classroom keys. i asked E if we should ask him to open the door for us. E saed no need. so we went to my class. i pointed at where ellisse's stuff were. funni. i din see them when i locked the door.
D and E skillfully removed three window panes, saed the method wuz discovered by 3/8. lol. D climbed into the classroom thru the space made by removing the window panes and got the stuff out. after he climbed out, D and E replaced the window panes. voila! everything done, and no evidence of break in.
thanked them then went back to dance with ellisse's stuff.
hehh.
felice needed to go home or smthn. she wuz sorta rushing to leave. so i, being nice, volunteered to lock the door for her for mel. well, since mel wuz the chairman, she's supposed to lock the classroom but i dont know how the key got to felice so, yea.

in my previous experience, when a student needs a key which was returned, the office ll send a staff to go up with the student, open the door and wait till he/she gets his/her stuff, then go down with him/her to return the key. the stdent does not get to touch the key at all.
so i asked mdm norma, since i couldnt see any other person in the office xcept her and ms ban, who's bz, if i could like, sign out the key then return again. she saed cannot, and repeated that it's my fault i should have checked and that she wont give me the key. then she saed that office shorthanded, she cant go up with mi if not office nobody liao. like ms ban not person. gahh.
then D and E came into the office and asked for scotch tape.
mdm norma took this as a perfect opportunity to say " you go out lah, go and dance, i cant give you the key anyway."
then i passed by ms ban, she asked me what wuz happending, then i told her then she saed that since school has ended, can just go home wad. so itold her it wuz dance now, then she saed, dance oso no nid books and bag. take key for wad. then i told her that girl has everything in her bag, w/o money, ezlink card how to go home. she just kept saying it's my fault and i should have checked.
D and E were still waiting for their scotch tape cuz mdm norma wuz still bz with her monetary stuff. they overheard me, then told me, "climb in lah! remove 3 window panes can liao." i replied "u all help me lah." they agreed and ask what class what level and whose things inside. told them lah. then mdm norma went" u go out lah, go and dance. i cannot help you."
fine. then i told D and E that i'll wait for them outside. they came out after sometime empty handed, cuz the tape that the office has cannot stick cardboard de. they wanted it to stick the cartons they were using to get their books home.
so we went up to the sixth floor. there wuz this cleaner uncle with a whole bunch of classroom keys. i asked E if we should ask him to open the door for us. E saed no need. so we went to my class. i pointed at where ellisse's stuff were. funni. i din see them when i locked the door.
D and E skillfully removed three window panes, saed the method wuz discovered by 3/8. lol. D climbed into the classroom thru the space made by removing the window panes and got the stuff out. after he climbed out, D and E replaced the window panes. voila! everything done, and no evidence of break in.
thanked them then went back to dance with ellisse's stuff.
hehh.

311'06, 411'07?
it's always like that.
why do we only realise how certain things are dear to us only when they are at the binge of extinction?
why do we only discover how precious they are when there is absolutely nothing we can do to keep them?
will we ever learn?
311'06, and trust me, 411'07. no matter what they say of us.

NEWater
9 out of 29 members of the class of 311 , with 310 and 312, visited the NEWater visitor centre on the 18th day of October, year 2006, at time 2.30pm. which is yesterday.
the guy who welcomed us asked why we were late, cuz the tour wuz scheduled to be from 2.15 tp 4.30, then dunno who said traffic jam. farni larh, traffic jam at that time. that guy must be dumb to believe.
watched a video, then toured the place.
some joke at the toilet area. cuz we were supposed to sit on the carpeted floor for the introduction of the tour. then at the 2 sides were the male and female toilets, one on each side. somehow the guys gathered and sat near the female toilet, and girls at the male. then, because the toilets didnt look like what they were supposed to be, and a male cleaner wuz in the female toilet then, sum guy walked in. after the introduction, the tourguide saed we could visit the toilet, and because of the commotion ealier, he said "i assume u all know where the toilets are?" then sum three ten guy pointed at the female toilet and said "that one is ours lor! cuz we sit here mah! then the girls go to that one (the male one)." then another saed "ehh why he (the male cleaner) can go inside (the female toilet) then we cannot?!?!" hehh. three ten guys.
so we were given ard 10 mins to tour the place. short time lah, dumb. must have deducted it cuz we were late. the stuff wuz okay lar, refer to photoblog for more.
if they had wanted to deduct time frm smthn, they should have trashed the video. no use de. and zhao han attempted to video the whole tour, from the time we boarded the bus. then the guy worker there said "take as mani pictures as you want, but for sucurity purposes, no videoing please, especially to the boy there holding the video camera." then all heads turned to zhaohan. stupid china guy attempting to sell our technology to china. hmph. joking, please.
then we watched another video. bout IPU, forgot wat it stands for. nvm, i dont plan to manufacture NEWater when i grow up anw.
then they brought us to the walking on NEWater place. automated doors everywhere. waste money lar. again, look at photoblog.
gave us NDP NEWater, 2 months old. the tourguide person said foreigners who tried NEWater said it tasted sweet, sum saed like coconut and a kid saed like apple. i think it tastes like metal.
so we were brought into the NEWater factory. okay, not really. that's the name, but we were given only sneak peeks. like, a little here and there, anf animated cartoonised versions on videos. stupid. if you dont want us to know the whole thing for fear of us selling the info, then dont show us at all! and waste money constructing the whole visitor centre and hiring tourguides with absolutely poor english. "exprain", "one questions"...yea u know them.
after that wuz the comittment wave, were we leave msgs into a comp instead of a guestbook. went on behalf of 311 cuz the others just dont take initiative. typed in "three eleven was here!!(=" just for the sake of it. didnt take picture of it, but it looked rather pretty.
then an automated door opened and we were whisked off into the sunlight. finally, after an hour or so in dimmed lighting.
then went dance with car sickness from the bus back. raja say must go mah. lol. siian didnt. cuz he din bring his trackpants and had thai lessons anyway. and he wuz surprised i did, cuz i saed i didnt want to. dance wuz fine i guess. refreshed after 2 months w/o dance. good start to get us kicking for syf lah.
went mustafa centre 2dae.bought lots of choc, mostly food we brought back. mum got me new earphones. nice. mayb ll use it next year. lunch wuz at an indian restaurant/kopitiam. sorta in between. food not bad lah, but the mutton in the biriyani wuz a tad too salty. tempeh wuz nice and crispy.(= mum suggested another indian restuarant for a meal next time. looking forward!!

im done with my wall! like, i made the pale pink wall sae "my mind achieves what it believes and conceives. does yours?" in black. and for a special finishing touch, i got my bro to dot the "i" in "mind". haa. opening by guest of honour.
okay, so the wall's finally done with 24 pieces of black paper, 350 pieces of double sided tape with differing lengths (hey i counted), and around a week.
next up, operation clear table. due on, i don't know, before i fly off to india?
went out with annabel 2dae. i was watching tv when she called me, saying she had nothing to do so go jp walk walk then ask me out. so i met her at frontier library, then we borrowed books. saw dai chao. i think he has very limited clothes. cuz he wuz wearing the same thing i saw him in the other time we met at popular.
then we went to jp window shop. went some sports shop (cuz there are so many there that i don't rmb their names), kappa, popular, fiesta to get sushi then ntuc since i had to run errand for my mum.
got veggie and choc and chicken and ice cream. enlightened annabel on The Art of Choosing Frozen Chicken.
time wuz up for her, for she had another appointment regarding some bus and some paper so we left jp then set off to the journey home.

mid-autumn
let's start from friday.
there wuzn't supposed to be school for me, cuz i din have ne papers. geog paper1, chinese paper 3, n english lit paper sumthing.
so im supposed to sleep in. woke up at ard 6, by my dad who din know im nt supposed to be in sch n tot i wuz late.lol. then i slept back n woke up at 7+. no1(mum n bro) wuz awake yet.
forgot the rest of the day. but i went to the library n jp in the evening, in the bad haze. borrowed books, bought mooncake n got stuff for mid-autumn poster. which i had volunteered to do because it seemed as if nobody gave a damn about the whole thing. n i realised i was wrong, very, the next day.
sat.
lazy me thought that i would get out of bed once my dad leaves for work, since i heard him packing his bag n tt means he should be leaving soon. so i waited for the tingling of the keys. but no, there wasn't any. instead, i heard the sound of a spoon tapping on his mug. which means he wuz going to have breakfast. gahh. so i got up.
after breakfast and all, i decided to procrastinate n read my bro's astrosaurs book before doing the mid-autumn posters.
i started of with making three stands for the posters. 2 for mine, n 1 which mrs tan got me to do for the cancer lady. used cardboard n large roll of tape. then went on to poster. orange plastic board thingy, corugated or sumthing u guys call it. i wanted to get 2 but decided one would be enough, because of the innovative invention (note: alliteration) called the penknife, which i could get my mum to use to cut the board into 2. indigenous, ain't i?
i got my mum to halve it the prev night. so i began drawing lines on hte boards with chalk cuz 1. i cant write straight and 2. it can be easliy removed by a wet piece of tissue.
by 9+, i wuz done with three stands and two posters, one chinese and one english. the chinese one saed :为善最乐。趁这佳节，请助我们的癌症病患者一臂之力，购买他们精心制作的手工艺品。您的一份爱心，将给予他们无限希望。谢谢。the english one was: giving is better than receiving. this mid-autumn, bring hope to out cancer patients by purchasing their handicraft. thank you for your support. i think i'll post the pic in photo blog.
then i forgot what i did. then my mum n bro n i went to nh after lunch for the roller blading event. reached at 2+. i think. super early, that's for sure. took pics n stole my bro's maom cola sweet. n ate in the hall. heck with the dancers' rule. talked to mr foo n for the third time, told him my bro's school and level. argh. he never remembers. he doesnt have to, he's just asking for the sake of it.
then at 5+, after the refreshments, brought my mum to the lift where she went to the auditorium for that "art of communication" talk with another mum. not mine, of coz. then brought my bro to the canteen where we finished out food. sat for awhile then decided it wuz time to go find mrs tan cuz no nothing wuz set up for us. 1st try, she wasnt in. then i went down n got a table n a chair outside ncc room cuz mrs tan saed that's where our stall would be. put lanterns at the ncc windows. then i went up again. cuz we were supposed to meet, the whole of 3/11, at 5.30pm.
and she wuz there. and guess who she wuz with. jeslyn and melissa. i saw from outside, i called with the fone outside but she din pick up. then got tcher go in so i used the open door to go in n she saed "how did you get in?" so i saed i called but she din answer so i went in. damn. then i told her i got the stall ready with decor and all, then she sent me down with the rest of the posters and money box. jb n felice were down there when i went down. yep. so we crapped then me n felice went walk walk then to toilet so she could retie her hair. then when we went down again they (who knows who) changed the place of the stall to the place where the light n fan controls are at the back of the canteen. causing us to be camouflaged by the other shimmery stalls. wo my effort of pulling the table n chair myself n putting up the lanterns with my bro went to nothing. thanks man. i took down the lanterns which they stupidly put at where they were in grave danger of getting squashed. nice site chosen mah.
well at least they did use my posters. n sum saed they were nice.
more ppl came n i slacked more and went to watch peformance. woah. festival of the cheena people man. everything other than dance and co and guzheng wuz cheena ppl. why let them do the emceeing and crosstalk when sg students can do as well or even better? ans: cuz we've got prc teachers in charge of the cds. and cds is in charge of mid-autumn. which means, the prc teachers are incharge of mid-autumn. stupid. crosstalk like their own little paradise. nobody really understood i think. even though i spend at least 6 periods a week listening to prc ppl talk during chinese lit, it din turn out very entertaining for me.
dance's item wuz. i don't know. sorta like kindergarten graduation. it din have the nhds oomph we used to have before ndp crashed everything. or mayb it wuznt ndp. it wuz the lousy people.
went back to stall at irregular intervals. stood there for like a few mins n scoot of again. nthn fun watching people spend money on felt keychains and handphone straps and hair clips and brooches.
then at 9pm, announcement wuz made, saing that the Pollution Standards Index wuz at 150, so we had to pack up n leave the school and go home. the haze wuz realli bad larh. i shall not elaborate, since the newspapers have it all. they even have graphs telling u the level at different times of the day.
went to macs with aaron and liwen and jiawen. annabel n yubing walked first cuz yubing hurt herself when chasing annabel or smthn. then annabel waited for her dad to send her home before coming to join us. hten after a coke for liwen and an apple pie for eveyone else but me, aaron sent annabel home and we decided we should return to our humble abode too, sheltered from the haze and everything.
wuz super tired and appalled when i saw the time as only 11. damn. it wuz like i spent two whole days camping at nanhua.but it wuz just like, 7 hours? argh.
bathed and slept and woke up late today. nothing much. grown fatter.
some people just don't appreciate. like mrs tan, who thought the two of them were like priceless gems for yesterday. when i did so much. nhds too. im not in the exco after doing so much and people who do nothing or pretend to do stuff get into the exco. and i stay as a fucking member. just like any of the freshmen. unlike mr chin. i guess he's the only teacher so far who has appreciated my efforts. during a journal entry in sec 1, entitled love, he wrote in my book that love is volunteering to coordinate a class play, which i did before that entry. n we got into the finals even tho we didnt win. but he appreciated it all, even though he didnt bring up anything in class. he's a nice teacher. but he had to change school. good teachers never stay for long. good people don't stay alive for long too, that's why jk left. cuz he's too nice.
there wuzn't supposed to be school for me, cuz i din have ne papers. geog paper1, chinese paper 3, n english lit paper sumthing.
so im supposed to sleep in. woke up at ard 6, by my dad who din know im nt supposed to be in sch n tot i wuz late.lol. then i slept back n woke up at 7+. no1(mum n bro) wuz awake yet.

went to macs with aaron and liwen and jiawen. annabel n yubing walked first cuz yubing hurt herself when chasing annabel or smthn. then annabel waited for her dad to send her home before coming to join us. hten after a coke for liwen and an apple pie for eveyone else but me, aaron sent annabel home and we decided we should return to our humble abode too, sheltered from the haze and everything.
wuz super tired and appalled when i saw the time as only 11. damn. it wuz like i spent two whole days camping at nanhua.but it wuz just like, 7 hours? argh.
bathed and slept and woke up late today. nothing much. grown fatter.
some people just don't appreciate. like mrs tan, who thought the two of them were like priceless gems for yesterday. when i did so much. nhds too. im not in the exco after doing so much and people who do nothing or pretend to do stuff get into the exco. and i stay as a fucking member. just like any of the freshmen. unlike mr chin. i guess he's the only teacher so far who has appreciated my efforts. during a journal entry in sec 1, entitled love, he wrote in my book that love is volunteering to coordinate a class play, which i did before that entry. n we got into the finals even tho we didnt win. but he appreciated it all, even though he didnt bring up anything in class. he's a nice teacher. but he had to change school. good teachers never stay for long. good people don't stay alive for long too, that's why jk left. cuz he's too nice.

life's fragile.
my p4-p6 cl tcher passed away this morning. while i wuz happily receiving birthday wishes frm ppl in sch. life's so fragile, isnt it? she wuz diagnosed wif sum funni kind of pneumonia a few years bac, during the sars period, n has nvr been well since. she was my bro's cl tcher, as in till 2dae, n due to her illness, she kept missing lessons. she died in the hospital, i guess, after being admitted there a few weeks ago.
this is the 2nd death of a person i knew this year, 1st jk then her. on my bdae sumore. n she told my mum, during national day celebrations, tt she still kept the tchers' day card i made her when i wuz p6. n she saed i wuz clever.
well, i guess now, all i can do is to live up to the reputation she has given me, n study hard so as to not make her death meaningless.
ok, on a happy note, i received 35 birthday wishes, excluding the one i gave myself on 0520hrs. when i woke up. lol.
thank you to all these lovely people, in order of the time they wished me: aaron, aloysius, derniese, dad, daichao, ivy, yuhui, mdm yong, jasmine lynn, adelaine, liwen, josie, wanting, kityeng, junjie, clarissa, wendy, emily, ellisse, amber, honglin, genevieve, jeslyn, melissa, jiabin, felice, yanglu, wang laoshi, ziwei, andrea, weicong n minghui's mum.
n thankyou Angels Of Lust + honglin n gen for singing my 1st bdae song in the canteen, and jeslyn, mel, felice, jiabin n yanglu for the 2nd one in class. thank you jeslyn n mel for the heart-shaped bdae card done in half n hour. thank you all of u, esp jiabin. i nvr expected to haf u as part of my bdae celebration in sch.
now, im officially 15, old enough to take the death of an important person in my stride, respecting and accepting God's decision.
the Lord's ways and plans aren't ours, though we may not be able to see or comprehend, we have to bear in mind His ever goodness and faithfulness.

recycling day
well, since it seems like everyone else who went for recycling day's blogging bout it, i shall too!!
reached the promenade at 7.20, went to the booths (nh had 3) n found tt many (most of the) paintings had dropped. in the green effort, sum1 decided to use minimal amounts of masking tape, resulting in the fall of paintings. lol. so i found a roll of masking tape n used more to paste them back on.
den foo laoshi came. den darren (aka mr tay) n mrs tan came. den the rest of 311 came. (the other 11) then 3 sec 2 gals came. they asked if i wuz yayi. lol. apparently our green chairman was absent.
darren n me went to the kindergarten behind the event place to get water for the fishing game. i suggested going to the police post a distance away initially, because i didnt know the kindergarten was open. yep so the 2 of us went dere, they lent us two pails which we filled up with sprays. darren's spray's hose was leaking at the tap, then water wuz like pen4-ing everywhere. farni. so we filled a pail each n since mine wuz smaller, i finished filling it up 1st so i went out 1st. jessie wanted to help, but there wuz nthn she cud do, so yar. she stayed there while i went bac to fill a 2nd pail. darren oreadi left, but i din c him on the way bac. funni. then after filling the 2nd pail, i went to the booth then darren sae actually dunnid liao. gahh. but they used it anw, the fishing pail thingy wuznt even half-full in the end.
must conserve water mahh!
we split up into groups to mend the 3 booths, then in the end i wuz the onli 311er left for the third booth, so they gave me the 3 sec 2s. amber n ruth n peifang did the puzzle thingy, honglin, yanbing, qingyun, yanglu, jessie did the fishing thing, which me n darren got water for. then the sec 2s n i did the aiming thing.
rules of the game: there are 3 recyclable items and 4 non-recyclable items given. recyclable ones are aluminum can, drink packet n drink bottle. non-recyclable ones are 2 bao3 xian1 zhi3 balls, whatever u call them in english, they're the plastic wrappers thingy used to wrap food, 1 cellophane paper ball n 1 styrofoam block. the player's supposed to stand behind a chair n aim the recyclable items into the recycling bin, and the rest into the rubbish bin. differen prizes are awarded according to the number of correct aims.
i think i repeated the rules in english and chinese at least a hundred times. oh, n a smile and thank you while presenting the prizes to the ppl.
hey, it's the code of conduct k? not official but widely known.
usual stuff when there r gifts, people keep coming n some bargain for more gifts than they deserve. singapore mah, c until dun want to c liao, dun wanna talk bout it too. i guess everyone can imagine anw.
but it isnt that bad. just treat them like anyone else. repeat the rules if they want me too, give them the smile n thank you when giving them the prizes. what do i have to lose anw? just make sure they get the prizes fair n square.
don't think it's just our sg aunties. prc families n indian families too. ranging from age 2-80, i tell u.
there wuz this grandma whom i realli admire. her aim wuz to get a water bottle, for her grandchild. just with tt thought in mind, she lined up n played around 10 times. she failed every single time, getting only a maximum of 5 aims each time. to get a bottle, she'll need 6 correct aims. so i like, let her cheat abit at the end. after the 7 throws she onli got 5 in, so i gave her another 2 items to throw in. she got one in, so i gave her the bottle. she wuz realli happi.
it's nt tt hard to bring happiness to a person, you know. i don't have any grandparents left, n the grandma who wuz the closest to me left when i wuz 2 or 3 yrs old. nthn can beat a grandma's love for her grandchildren. Sometime's it's even better than a mum's love, tho we say a mum's love is the greatest of all.
then there wuz this lady wuz wuz looking at the photos we put up, displaying the green events nh has participated in in the past. so i went up to her n asked if she needed help, cuz no1 ever even gave those photos a damn, while she wuz making notes. she saed she's frm sum hospice centre, n wuz wondering if nh cud collaborate wif her to educate elderly on being environmentally friendly, esp when many elderly have large piles of flammable stuff stacked in their hse. then i asked if she wanted to talk to a tcher. she saed fine. mr chia wuznt ard at tt time, so mrs tan told mi to get her namecard. so i did. den i spent more time explaining the photos to her. when i knew absolutle nthn. but photos sae a thousand words, so i ended up telling her bout the events rather ok-ly.
then mrs lim came, put her hand round my shoulder, n asked 4 my name n class. stunned. so i answered "stephanie, 311." i wuz sorta expectling sum warning or stuff, but in the end she saed im doing my job well n asked me to keep it up. lol.
i continued with more rules repeating, prize giving n thank you saying. If i din stop to go round playing games i think i wud have lost my voice.
people, the correction fluid canisters arent recyclable cuz the fluid's toxic n stuck to the plastic, so stop using them as they ll deplete our environment. use correction tape!!!
used tissue paper cannot be recycled too, so dun try to be a good soul n throw them into recycling bins.
also, the polystyrene wrappers we use for food arent recyclable too, cuz sg's tech level ain't that high yet. but plastic bottles are fine. continue recycling them yar?
had sum seafood baked rice for lunch. lucky they use mozerella cheese. i carn take cheddar.which means i can onli eat the normal pizza at pizza hut, carn take the new cheesy bites thingy. havent tried it anw. ok. back to the lunch. had mussels, prawns, n fish. quite okay lar. but i think it wuz realli bad for amber, cuz she threw up smthn, rite in front of the ppl at her booth. i wuz like, "no amber, nt in front of them..." while pushing her behind me n continue smiling at the ppl in front.
come on ppl, mus uphold nan hua's image k?
left at 1, peifang, amber n ruth were forced to stay on till 2 cuz the rest went back n they needed at least 3 to stay. the 2nd batch of ppl, hu were suppsed to be there frm 12-4, never arrived. irresponsible ppl.
wanted to get more of the pens but onli managed to get 2. shall ask them if they koped. n kope frm them. lol.
oh yar, saw mdm long in the beginning. took photo with her son n her. wuz nice to c her again, tho we just met like b4 tchers' day? haas.
i don't know why, but i jus enjoy doing this kinda green stuff. like, there wuz this green thingy when i wuz p6, n despite the psle, i volunteered to go, n ended up being the onli em1 person there together with the em3 ppl. lol. im nt discriminating them lar, but, realli. then i volunteered for the hike thingy on 1st nov. jk's bdae. it's with the green reps of the sch. lol. n im a geog rep.
i want more recycling days!!!((: tiring, but definitely fun!!

stupid hols.
it's the holidays!!!
oh man, are those cheers i hear?
cuz im not cheering. seriously, holidays are evil. mrs tan told us the meaning of hols is "lessons outside normal curriculum time". wth?
i'd rather have no holidays, then.
tomorrow's wednesday, which supposedly means i should have done half my homework and half of revision for yr end. what have i done? nothing.
thanks to the german school immersion proramme.
it's super boring, with their snail-paced lessons n everything. class starts at 8, they haf the homeroom thingy so u go to the teacher instead of they coming to ur class. my buddy's supposed to b alessa, but somehow she always goes missing wif her friends, so us sg studets are left alone, together.
wait. tt doesnt sound rite. alone n together. but yea, we jus roam ard the sch as a whole bunch of sg students.
they talk during lessons. in art 2dae, we were given a pic of a building printed on a piece of paper, n were supposd to continue the picture onto the rest of the paper, such tt it looks like a photo. when i wuz done n irene n derniese almost finished, some german students havent even started. they were talking all the way lar.
then the guy infront of the 3 of us turn back.
"you guys are not allowed to talk in the local school classes?"
"yea."
"what happens if u talk?"
"you get thrown out of class."
then the teacher says"tt's a good idea."
back to student.
"wow. but now u're in our school, you can talk."
"erm, we prefer not to."
"why? because u don't like to talk?"
"no, but we're just not used to it."
lol. their textbooks are in HARDCOVER. but nt very heavy lar. their chem tb's thinner than ours by 0.5 cm, in glossy paper, n still lighter than our a maths tb.
they have a cool hall. it's air-con-ed, well, almost everywhere is, xcept the canteen. the bb hoops, badminton nets etc. are all suspended on the roof, so u're supposed to use a remote to get them down when u nid them. we had soccer for pe in there for the 1st day. 1 n a half hr pe. nicee. but soccer's not.
they separate gals n guys during pe. the guys did swimming. the pool's in the sch.
im attached, or whatever u call it, to an 8th grade class. 13 yr olds. nice people, they are, but childish. mayb putting us with older ones ll b a better choice. at least they noe more n can teach us.
history. sum peasant war thingy.
had french 2dae. they're learning it for the third yr, like we are for german. lol.
i've been leaving the sch at lunch everyday, since ytd. but i think i'll stay till the end 2moro. to c their religion class. dey've got protestant n catholic. dunno how they managed to put the 2 2gether.
n i conclude tt the students are rich. cuz the canteen food is super ex n they eat like it's free flow. i got fried noodles n a piece of chicken n an apple for $4.70. ok. ex as in when compared to our school canteen. yar.
the school provides education frm nursery to ard jc i think. got little kids to tall, big-sized guys who bully little boys. n they wear the same uniform. dark green polo tee with black collar n sleeve lining, with own black bottoms or sch berms. their logo's a palm tree. i c if i can get a sch jacket or smthn.
the hols ll b much much better wo the immersion. cuz of the slow pace, i end up super bored n unable to slp in class cuz i hafta uphold the image of sg students, i wait till i reach hm late afternoon n sleep all the way till dinner. lazy, i noe, but i can't help it. our schools are definitely for suitable for me.
and they say the german school's giving them alot of pressure compared to in germany. they shld let them haf a sg school immersion, i tell u.
