read the newspaper today... it said tt the chinese syllabus has been reduced again... frankly... im a bit disheartened by this scenario... attended this seminar b4 where the speaker said to us abt this paradox: "on one hand, the government wants to increase the chinese culture appreciation standard in our country, but on the other hand (i hav 5 fingers, or accordin to soon soon, 4 fingers n 1 thumb)... lame... the government decreases the syllabus again n again... not tt i hav been a critic of policies b4... cos i usually dun... but when u c the ever-decreasin standards of chinese in Singapore... u cant help but juz feel upset... nowadays teens cant even get one complete sentence out in chinese... *tink abt the interviews on tv*... ok... enuf abt this lamentin liao... all is not within my power to change...
had a gd time laughin today... minz was damn entertainin... me n ks were writin chinese poems we learnt in C. Lit b4... den got minz to interpret the poems... haha... n minz really gave very funny answers to certain stanzas... i almost laughed till i fell to the floor... or rather... i did fall to the floor... cos it was juz so wacky... :)... n pple in the opp. room were starin at the 3 of us... haha...
havin STJ soon... probably on Sat... but the response frm the class doesn't seem too gd... haiz... hope tt pple will be more enthu lah... its quite saddenin if u c pple not wantin to turn up for stuff u organize... :(

CIP at Esplanade

hmm... had CIP at Esplanade today as part of the HCI community day... supposed to bring an elderly arnd Esplanade... but the elderly turnout was surprisingly small... almost half of the grps had no one to attend to... so they either merged or juz lazed arnd... i brought the 2 boarders attached to my grp arnd the area... became a tour guide liao... but it was quite tirin... walked non-stop for like 1 hr plus... had to keep tinkin of things to say cos my partner was very, extremely quiet... guess its too bad lah... sigh...

Mega-Family Outin...

hooray!!! the mega 73-outin has been successful!!! thx to all who came down for their enthusiasm n ur energy... hope it was extremely enjoyable for all who came... as usual... i will giv a brief re-cap for the benefit of those who dint come n lost out a LOT of fun!!!
1) met at bedok mrt at 10.30am... n the seniors were all punctual!!! me, jas, wk, mz n soon were the late ones... haha... but apparently... punctuality for the juniors was not as gd as us... haha... some of them came late... but its ok... we ended up on the same bus eventually... conclusion: bus 401 comes very slowly... :)
2) reached ECP only to find tt it was totally crowded wif pple... had to walk for like very long time to find one place shady enuf to set up our stuff... n coincidentally (or mayb it was on purpose)... we went back to the exact spot where 04S73 had our 1st class outin last yr... wonder if all realised tt... haha... so nostalgic iseneh... :)... had lunch tgt... hmm... on the surface of it... food dint seem to be enuf... but den... every1 was quite full after eatin... n there was some food left over... haha... n thx to all who prepared food n other stuff... w/o u all... we wld hav starved... the food centre is like sooo far away... haha...
3) rested for some time after lunch b4 startin on our 1st mass game tgt... the juniors' fav, i suppose... CAPTAIN'S BALL... spent some time tryin to decide on the splittin of teams... 1st it was mixed... den seniors vs juniors... den finally... guys vs gals... haha... guys had height advantage... but the gals were very pia... can c frm the fact tt they had like 3 or 4 pple surroundin the guy captain... oh... n not forgettin jas's efforts for the guys to form a baricade arnd fy (who was the gals' captain at tt time)... but the captains on both teams were runnin all arnd... haha... lost count of the pts durin the game... but no one cared anyway... every1 jus wanted the fun of it...
4) celebrated one of the junior's bday... Delia, i tink... the cameraman suggested tt the juniors push her face into the cake... well... in the end... the cake was flipped into her face as well as some1 else's legs... haha... den the junior guys swiftly carried her up n dunked her into the sea... while the senior guys rushed back to the cake to try to salvage it... haiz... we the senior guys r gluttons... :)... plotted against jas to dunk him into the sea as well... but boy... he was sure heavy lah... took a lot of effort to dunk him into the sea... but we did it in the end... haha... yeah!!! n jas was wet... mz was next to be dunked... n the junior gals looked on at the wildness of their seniors... haha... ;)
5) went for cyclin/rollerbladin all the way to the end of east coast park... got to noe pl's fav breakwater... haha... took a photo there as well... poor cj had to remove his blades in order to climb the breakwater... or else he wld jolly well hav slided into the sea... haha...
6) returned to camp area to find the juniors engrossed in their game... n the names they kept callin out were like so vulgar... haha... but sadly... seniors were excluded... hmm... so we played bluff wif poker cards... which i lost terribly... to my surprise... all the cards went to me... den spent some time chattin arnd... n hearin complaints frm the LEP students abt some gal in another class... while some others went off to cycle n rollerblade...
7) finally... went to play captain's ball again... but this time it was a mix of seniors n juniors in one team... poor cj n i spent most of our energy laughin at sianzilla's funny behaviour durin interceptin the balls... he wld go "arh"... n whenever he did it... the 2 of us will laugh like mad... Delia tot we were crazy pple... this was the most fun segment of the outin as well... :)
8) packed up, washed up n went to PP for dinner outside KFC due to the overcrowdin in the food court... mz, jas, wk, xavier n i formed our little grp arnd the bench... wif wk being the "chief of sect"... n the rest of us bein the elders... haha... spent quite some nice time laughin all arnd... after this was home sweet home... which, accordin to yw... was the saddest part of an outin... haha... well... here's the nxt one to look forward to... STJ... venue to be discussed n confirmed... haha... :)

Tired Out...

sigh... this is the 1st time im bloggin for dis wk... guess i hav to sum up a lot of stuff within this entry... but all i can rmb abt this wk is rushin abt like mad, tryin to meet deadlines, ensure tt things work out smooth enuf... n on top of tt... hmwk seems to pile up really fast for this wk... one wrong decision to slack one nite has caused me to hav to rush to complete my hmwk... sigh... glad tt guitar orientation is finally over... or to be more exact... the 1st stage of it is over liao... response was not too bad... had abt 80-90 pple signin up... hope tt those who r gd can stay on... now hav to move on to prepare my chords lessons... another deadline to be rushed out... n guitar banner design must also come out wif an idea by nxt wed comm meetin... bio s-paper presentation nxt tue... n my grp hasn't really met up to discuss at all... tt's another deadline to be met... chem s-paper assignment due nxt mon... n i havent got the bklet!!! sigh... seriously... im quite stressed up now... too many things r boggin on my mind... too many things to complete... n i dun really noe if i hav the time... n SYF auditions is on sat... haiz... :(

New Species...

haha... u noe... a new species has kinda emerged since last yr... but im only bloggin abt it now... haha... here r the details...
Genus: S73
Species name: 04S73ians
Population number: 26
Habitat: HCJC (one way to find them is to go c the class bench)
Structure: No different frm any other human species
General Characteristics: (oh boy... a lot on this... haha... :)
1) simply ADORES Beng Beng: over-idolisin of her has resulted in this species havin a unique way of speakin some english words... like "isn't it" has become "iseneh"... "i mean" has become "ar min"... one of the most prominent characteristics of this species is the sudden mass cheerin of a strange string of words n some numbers tt somehow sounds like english... but the way the species pronounces it sounds a bit strange... n a notable fact is tt this cheer does not hav a proper order... goes smth like this "iseneh (x3), yes or norr (x3), ar min (x3), 9233 (x3), horijauntal (x3), Beng Beng (x3)"... research shows tt the phrases used in this cheer r "Beng Beng-ish" in nature... n a leader will dictate the order of the words in this cheer...
2) has a strong likin for synchronized clappin: research has shown tt all it takes is for one member in the population to start the beats... n the whole population will respond to it wif a variety of claps... exceptionally loud clappin... often draws the attention of teachers n other students... science has yet to provide a suitable explanation for y their ear-drums r not spoiled yet...
3) loves to play a prank on teachers: several case studies hav proven this characteristic to be extremely prominent as well... one juz happened yday... when the physics sub-population locked their phy teacher outside of the phy lab durin practical... n their incessant laughin when they notice tt Tam has got vege stuck in her teeth... such r the few of many case studies tt can be provided to illustrate this characteristic of this extremely mischievous species...
4) has extremely strong bondin: altho the population is small... there exists a certain bondin btw the grp tt is neither of van-der-Waals forces nor electrostatic attraction forces... considerin tt the entire human body is made up of atoms n molecules... n its amazin at the rate at which this force grows strong... within a period of 1 yr... the bondin has grown to such an extent tt this population will miss each other if kept apart for too long... n their enthusiasm at attendin class outings... again... science has yet to provide a suitable explanation for this yet...
Summed up in the 4 pts above r the general characteristics of the species of 04S73ians... n there has been an addition to this genus... 05S73... meanwhile... ur loyal scientist researcher will observe the happenings to determine if this new population of 26 will hav any characteristic similar to their seniors...
Signin off, X!@ng 2 (senior researcher of population behaviour)
wahahahahahaha... this is a very lame entry... hope u all like it... n to all 04S73ians... outin nxt fri hor... at east coast... must go!!! n i love u all!!! :)

New Challenges...

erm... i tink my coughs r actin up again... realised tt it has got a certain peak period... ba... tt means im still sick... :(...
had the reshufflin of the class comm today... appointed Asst CT rep... n erene is the CT rep... so our 1st task is to organise some outin durin Hari Raya Haji, i suppose... but wx says tt there's a CIP to clean up some temple or stuff... so mayb we can go out after tt... i dun noe... haha... c wad the class wants ba... haiz... a lot of stuff boggin down on me now... Guitar J1 orientation (somehow i became the in-charge again... tot it wld be some1 else leh... n it is the most urgent!!!), SYF auditions (exco is on 22nd, members is on 26th n 28th Jan), den hav to settle the class outings... this is in addition to the projected tons of hmwk... tt's y im enjoyin my little bit of free time now... hmm... but somehow i feel excited... i guess tt's wad pple always feel when they c challenges ahead of them ba... u feel like handling the challenges... but on the other hand... u doubt ur ability to do so... but i will do my best not to tink of the latter... cos it only dampens my morale... tt shall be my goal... :)
orientation concert today... hmm... well... it was a bit better than the rehearsal yday to me... at least there was a bit more order in the rhythm... but there were some parts tt gave me the impression of being "ma2 ma3 hu1 hu1" played... hmm... n some were rushin for Romeo n Juliet... kinda spoiled the song a bit... but i guess it dint really affect the J1 intake... haha... we had like 120+ pple signin up... but how many will turn up next wed still dun noe lah... oh... n 10 of my juniors signed up as well... haha... really look forward to seein them there!!! :)

Movin On...

hmm... suddenly some pple r age-conscious... movin on to 18 liao... wad does tt mean for me???... well... i guess its a time when i decide on my future career... i hav the ambition to become a doc... but den... smtimes i worry tt its a rash decision... y do i smtimes keep havin doubts abt my own decisions???... hmm... mayb im juz too over-cautious... i dread makin wrong decisions smtimes... esp when tt affects me in such a way... pple say things like "live each day w/o regrets"... well... i've plenty of regrets anyway... but nvm... dun wanna tolk abt those anymore liao... mayb i really shld look forward... :)
sch today was extremely hilarious... esp wif jas n his sigmund fraud (dun noe if i spelled correctly... doesn't seem rite...) theory... tt all things on earth r driven by sex drive... haha... jas is sure one big entertainer i've ever seen... esp when how he seems to tolk sense when actually... its all quite funny (crappy actually...)... for further details, pls ask jas himself... im sure he will be delighted to expound on his "sex drive" theory to u... iseneh, jas???... n i was actually so dumb... in my rush to put my angel/mortal letters in the box... i put in the wrong letter... the one my mortal wrote to me b4... no wonder when i checked the box, this letter seemed familiar... haha... silly me... :)... den had cca orientation rehearsal after sch... my only comments for tt was tt it was quite bad... rather bad for the first time round... second time got a bit better... n considerin tt im one wif not really high expectations as compared to the rest... u can imagine how lousy it was... but nvm... we will try harder... n we will clinch the SYF gold!!! cheers!!! :)

hmm... i cant tink of a suitable title for this entry... so lets keep it title-less ba... :)... oh... heard tt some pple r tryin to owe me some money (u noe who u r... i dun wanna say names)... n my advice to u is: ON ACCOUNT OF OUR FRENSHIP, IF U DARE!!!... find tt a lot of pple owe me money this yr... strange...
btw... no offence was meant for any of my entries... so if u tink tt my entry has offended u in any way, u can be rest assured tt it was not intended... juz leave a note at my tag-board n i will do the necessary adjustments... haha... dis is juz in case earlier on or ltr i offended any1...
im so glad tt the grudge was over... wif a simple handshake n a word "sorry"... well... to me tt ends all bad feelings... n im extremely thankful for tt...
ok... enuf abt those liao... move on straight to the events today... well... wad can i say??? morn had assembly at the high sch side... in which we sang the chinese high sch song... for 4 yrs i've struggled to catch a suitable tone for singin tt w/o my voice bein too high or low... n today, i still struggled... but considerin my throat to be a bit sore due to coughs... decided to keep a low key... instant response: some1 frm the class below turned her head n gave tt weird expression... not sure if it was in response to my key... but wadever... haha... :)
lessons were as usual... nth much to say abt tt... but oh... wx pasted some pics of our dear Mr 11 (SET) in the class diary... n he got so damn worked up over it... but we managed to divert his attention ltr by tolkin abt Rasputin... who has a record of 30cm of smth... wahahahahahaha... den the guys were kinda like imaginin how it was actually true... while some of the gals juz tot: "this is so sick!!!"... n yoohoo!!! my junior mortal n angel hav started writin to me... will try dis yr to reply everyday... haha... excited!!! :)

Campfire 2005...

haha... stayed in sch for campfire last nite... hmm... but i must say tt last yr we enjoyed it more... (mayb becos we were j1s last yr, den dis yr j2s...)... n another thing was tt it rained... but luckily the rain stopped soon enuf... so there was still the light-up... n most imptly... mass song n dance session... it was touchin to c many generations of S73ians formin a big circle to sing college songs... runnin in a train (tho we kept crashin wif other trains... )... dancin mass dances... which a lot of us had forgotten quite some parts... n considerin the fact tt we were squashed to one side of the plaza... not much space to dance well... haha... but i still enjoyed it... oh... n lt was my dance partner... haha... den went for supper at BTFC wif the juniors n seniors... haha... the juniors r still so shy... mayb tt's y they a bit dao... but nvm... we will get to know them better thru JTS n STJ... as well as angel & mortal game... :)

4th Day of Sch...

haha... unknowingly... i hav completed the 4th day of sch today... n tided thru the maths n bio tests... hmm... i guess for these few days... 04S73 is hyper-excited (or at least, pple like me r... :) ) over our juniors, 05S73!!! hmm... been makin an effort to go n support them... take care of them for these few days... haha... n i've been goin home rather late as well... juz to stay arnd in sch to hav a look at the juniors... haha... i finally knew y 03S73 made an effort to come down to look at us durin our orientation liao... the feelin is really indescribable... u juz feel like wantin to c them... haha... :)
hmm... mayb i blog a bit abt my day today... 2 practicals today... sigh... i juz hate practicals... den had a chem lect wif HOLY... well... some notable quotes r... "My volume corresponds to ur volume"... "U hav no time!!!"... haiz... im juz glad tt today she dint scream at us over the mic again... haha... which is alredi quite an improvement... oh... n wx told me abt a true, touchin love story... quite nice...
3.20pm... sch ended... stayed in sch to mug at the class bench... reason: wanted to hav a look at the juniors who will be released at 5.30pm... 2h 10min... i really wondered wad pulled me thru tt time... oh... n jas, mz, set n i were playin some hong2 lou2 meng4 game... damn lame... but it did provide the 4 of us wif some laughter... :)... when the juniors started paintin their banner... we went over to c them... but i must say they r a bit dao lah... juz looked up at us... n looked away... but well... i guess they dun noe us tt well yet... so nvm abt tt... den we pampered the juniors a bit by volunteerin to buy their dinner... a task which we left at 6pm to do, but completed at abt 8.10pm... (went to eat dinner, place orders at YC chicken rice... went explorin arnd the NYPS area cos the orders were only to be collected abt 1 hr ltr... went arnd searchin for glitters which the juniors requested at coro... den went back to some black-faced juniors who kinda blamed us a bit for their late dinner... but we had no choice rite???...(n considerin the fact tt last yr all the seniors did for us was to lend us some batteries for our radio speaker, as well as helpin us buy some stuff... but we bought our dinner ourselves, ok???)... we also had to wait... but im glad tt thru this stayin back in sch, im bondin much better wif some pple in the class... n i really enjoy tt... :) n campfire tml will sure be excitin!!!... esp when 04S73 will wear their sec sch uniform... haha... lookin forward to relivin the old days of orientation!!! :)
