tchers' day concert was damn funny...they really went all out to entertain us ( i like the mr Law and order..so lame)! but i feel bad cos i didnt get any tchers anything...went back to ph and well, stoned for quite some time b4 everyone came...and miraculously, our long lost roland returned!!! first time in 4 yrs. and he cudnt recognise any of us....and he walked past us, and lcy and i were like staring at each other with the "is that him" look. an ri guy is unmissable among the sea of tchs'. candy came back too, and she cudnt rmb my name as well..tsk tsk *wags finger*

yay...mindy has got some 203 ppl to share the skirt 4 my bday pressie..thnks everyone :) though my bday's still quite some time away. i love the skirt..it's such a pretty thing!
beautiful!! we have english (our fave paper..note the sarcasm) on thurs...i bet our class is so excited abt it man...

i've been quite slack this past wk...come online v often...so i shall stay away frm the comp for 4 days...okie? if u see me online b4 saturday, chase me off!!! i have ultra short attn spans lah.

was watching this taiwan program and there was Bond!! so happy!! *beams* i will try to save $ and get their new album. Bond's albums are the only albums that i truly have the urge to buy originals..sorry to the anti-piracy peeps out there

i think i'm quite screwed for lit..i hafnt finished reading it a 2nd time...jus cant get thru it...and hmm...apparently not prepared for it..*how oh how* but i cant depend on comined hums lah...my writing sux

was watching news jus now and ha, now jiawei has got fans asking for autographs...so funny..she mus have felt weird. and susilo's surprise is so not a surprise lah, even we could see what was coming

physics pract is ambiguous. the outcome always is...i mean, i dunno what to expect frm it...*shrugs*

got kept in drama t for like 3+ hrs, and mindy and i were deciding if we shud eat mac's or kfc...cos naughty her wanted to use her ezlink card for mac's to save $..so we played 3x10 sets of scissors paper stone and i won 2...muahahah, but we went lido in the end..poor her, cant find the size of the shirt she wants. but we saw this really nice skirt in isetan, and we will get it *beams* i'm alrdy thinking of shopping. i foresee 2 wks fully booked with shopping sessions with fellow shopaholics eve, mindy, etc..hahha
all u need is $, all u need is $ (rings a bell? all u need is love..haha)

slack today manz...CANNOT..mus chiong tmr. i hope all goes well for chem pract. i wonder wat's up 4 tchers day celeb...*shrugs* our last in rg so mus go *beams*

u noe what???? i jus downloaded a song frm shareaza in like 3 secs!!!! it was SOOO fast i just watched on, jaw dropped! and it's an oldie summore, thot there wud be less sources... *in a state of shock*
it took me quite sumtime to process the fact that tmr's physics pract..but seriously, i dunno what to do abt it. other then read thru and mem. formulae, and yah, they cant have pract qns for like dynamics, and WEP rite? so..well, hope all goes well. yes..we're are kept in till 12 +...yay, then mindy and i are going to get sharon's present!! we r so telepathic..i smsed her abt this and she said "u freak! i jus wanted to ask u that!" ha, we hafnt been hanging out much after choir...rmb we used to eat lunch together after every single sat choir prac. she's still funny as usual, and her infectious lameness is un-missable.

okie, gotta catch some good sleep or i will keep yawning tmr..gd luck to all!

everyone seem to have turned off their handphones or sth...they dun reply to my msg..but oh wellz...understood. everyone's on exam mode.
sis gave me 'tuition' yesterday on electronics. aint THAT hard actually...i think it's easier to study ourselves from the textbook than trying to understand all the chim stuff chang said. Prob gonna do this for every single chapt... self study. I am so happy with my chem and emaths rev. our prelims 03 was killer manz...and the Os paper mrs pey let us do was SO much easier. Haiz...not very encouraging...cant believe they are using prelim marks for JC entry. Speech day was quite crap...lotsa waiting. the presentation was THIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSS long. haha. hao bu rong yi cai deng dao performance. Sec 3s! U guys were quite funny. keep it up! and i love amanda's speech abt battling the Cambridge examiners. *applauds*

and i quote this from PM Lee's National Day Rally:
'We may be small but we have high hopes and big dreams. And so long as we are a little red dot in the middle of South-east Asia, let people know that we are a people who will keep on trying and never say die. And with this spirit, the future is ours to make.'

have i told u how sad i am for jiawei? her match against the squeaky and noisy woman yesterday was SUCH A WASTE!!! she had a great chance of winning the 5th, 6th set...haiz. why oh why?? but she did her best lah..it really did us proud, but still, we were SOOOOO close to making history, and she was so close to earning her 250 000 bucks...
*lets out a loooooong loooooong sigh*
our swimmers were....their records were quite far frm the world one..haha, but well, work harder!!! so, all our athletes balik kampong..train harder for 2008!! Beijing here we come!!! hahah. actually olympics had nv meant so much to me b4, but oh wellz, it will frm now on

sent my big sis off, so now it's me and 2nd sis, still living on fine..haha, but after she leaves as well, i will be real lonely. physics prelim pract is jus 4 days away *shudders at the thot that prelims are so near*

MY PHYSICS IS GONE!!!!! now i am really putting focus on chem as my science for R5..more enjoyable to study...haha, but chang really rushed a lot towards the end, a lot to self study. cant blame him!

susilo rox!! i bet fel agrees. his match against ling dan (can also be ling2 dan4..sorry...hah) was superb...his reaction damn fast, reflexes damn gd!! (felly..he's taken! haha) but then again...nearly all our athletes are imported..but it doesnt matter :)

had last block of tennis yesterday (boohoo!!) and eve kept claiming that she was mrs roddick...*cough cough* eve, i'm so sure!! haha, well...i LOVE tennis!! mus go play after exams. cant believe it's the last week!!!!! everythin's last! not that i will miss eng and physics pract...

my sis is freelancing for the mag teenage and she got to interview lotsa ppl! like Evonne Hsu, Ashlee Simpson!!, Linda...damn cool! and she gets their albums for free..how fun. i told her to tell her colleagues to pass the work to me after Os....and it's good money!! she writes an article for every interview and gets paid 60, 70 per article!! beats giving tuition..like my big sis.

toking abt her, she's leaving this fri, sending her off and very soon i'll be very lonely.. :( ok, vei and i have decided to only focus on 6 subs for prelims...no time to care too much abt my physics.. >.<
ganbatte everyone

[eve] aiyah...quite swt lah...some parts...when he got the flowers for her....hehe...u are so right...takeshi rocks our socks!!

so sad...bryna left us today *boohoo* well, she's joining Sg American Sch...her notice was really short, so it's very shocking lah. will miss her lots. But gd for her, she's missing the Os. well, sch's ending nxt wk...for the study leave. haiz...so fast!! i'm not ready to leave rgs yet...so last wk, we had our last chem pract lesson...aww...realised i am nv gonna do chem pract (except for exams) ever again...i wun miss physics AT ALL...but i miss chem

today for assembly, we watched a video of an AWESOME performance of a figure-skating comp. in 1984 olympics...and the spker was interesting, so makes us all rooted to the grnd ...once in a blue moon occasions. mindy and i have probably have the most special way of acknowledging each other along the corridors...we glare at each other...yah, tht's our greeting..haha. miss spending time with her and the squigs during choir..so much luffs

speech day's nxt wk, gotta make sure my shoes are squeaky clean :) i'm avoiding physics...escapism..ha, but i really detest it...maybe i shud have dropped it rite? since i'm so sure i will nv touch it again. and the section of my brain that bears the minimal memories of PHYSICS will automatically brainwash itself. so dun ask me anything abt it the day after the exams...it's emptied alrdy

wow...hafnt blogged for a looong time. ha, my story goes back to last fri, after nat'l day celeb. cleo, eve and i went to watch house of flying daggers! well, beautiful scenery, nice moves, SWEET eye candy, (i love the horses!!) and brainless plot..but for the sake of the eye candy..haha. we were all luffing at how unrealistic the last part was (when zhang ziyi died and woke and died and woke then died finally...haha) trying to drag the movie to a full 2 hrs. but takeshi made up for all these flaws haha...then cleo was saying how older men are so hot..eg brad pitt, tom cruise ("he's single" exclaimed cleo), and takeshi ..all in their 40s. *takeshi!!* then we went to take neocard and we bought earrings for marilyn's bday and i got this pair of butterfly ones...ahhhh...to die for manz.. totally in love with them. had a really fun time with the 2 of them. i seldom hang out with cleo, so nv realised she was soo funny! + eve, it makes gd company. well, we didnt win the fashion parade, but cleo looked BEAUTIFUL! she didnt bring her makeup removal, so she went out with them on, and she said "it;s a free cntry!" and she doesnt care abt ppl staring...xiao1 sa3!

went m'sia to visit my relatives on sat...and there was a 4 1/2 hrs jam!!!!!!!!!! how much time is that...it was just that short dist. bet. the s'pore customs to the m'sia customs (that stretch of the bridge at the second link) saw my cute baby cousin!!! she's so quiet but still cute, has that blur look on her face. and i saw my fave cousin too!!! he's spking a lot more, + that twinkle of mischief in his eyes. and we ate SOOO much. it's always lotsa food when we go m'sia.

sighz...O's orals tmr...back to sch *sadz* i'm so unprepared for everything and anything!! if i were to take the exams now....NO WAY. exchanged phone with my sis cos mine has triband and she's going to US..so bye bye phone..but hers is samsung and has LOADs of fun games!! distraction manz.

*i'm proud to be a singaporean* are u?

this is the song the sec 3s used during farewell. beautiful. download it if u can "Our Farewell" by Within Temptation
www.within-temptation.com

Our farewell

In my hands
A legacy of memories
I can hear you say my name
I can almost see your smile
Feel the warmth of your embrace
But there is nothing but silence now
Around the one I loved
Is this our farewell?

Sweet darling you worry too much, my child
See the sadness in your eyes
You are not alone in life
Although you might think that you are

Never thought
This day would come so soon
We had no time to say goodbye
How can the world just carry on?
I feel so lost when you are not by my side
But there's nothing but silence now
Around the one I loved
Is this our farewell?

So sorry your world is tumbling down
I will watch you through these nights
Rest your head and go to sleep
Because my child, this not our farewell.
This is not our farewell.

yeah, u can find a friend to go with u if u want...u can join us too..dun think my fren will mind. niwae, u can email cmf@nkfs.org
 
yay i love pe more and more cos i can at least hit the tennis ball liaoz..haha
i keep hearing the ad on tv with the song "sway" and i think of dearest nichole!!! all the fun times we had and the funny names we called each other...but i lost the old contact list, so i cant contact her...anyone got her email, pls tell me :)
 
i'm still really distracted this week..*pulls hair* i hope to really start focusing!!!!!!!! eve and i say we will go watch hse of flying daggers...that shall be my motivation to work hard for the new wk *takeshi kaneshiro* hahah
we have new deco in our classrm!! we pasted a lot of photos on the wall...reminded me of the cute kids at service learning..tho some were unbearable...haiz..thinking closely, sch's coming to an end really soon...awwww....so gonna miss it....surprise i'll miss sch :) mainly due to the ppl and just the place itself brings back lotsa memories.
 
i was just thinking abt how much i've changed since pri sch...like in a totally different frequency...well, i feel at least. pri sch shapes the fundamentals and basis of ur morals while in sec sch, i think it's the experience and also the absorbent period,....ur mind really takes in a lot. also the decision making stage.
 
taking NE quiz tmr...rmb we were doing in pri sch in the comp lab...oh...ph is almost done..the exterior. painting is almost done...*surge of nostalgia* i miss the old bldg

mindy and i decided to do sth meaningful with our lives, cos her bro's fren died of brain tumour. so we hope to volunteer at the NKF children's fund during dec hols. sighz...the frailty of human life.
 
went for the fashion parade rehears. total waste of my precious time!! arggh..any sane tcher wud noe that we cant afford to spend so much time on unimportant stuff. i'm desperately looking for scrap fabrics but the class ain't giving any response *faints* except a few...and i've got this totally cool new idea *beams*
 
chem pract today involved so much heating!! and the lab wasnt exactly very cool so our sweat was pouring..like eve says "xia yu" (raining)...i love chem pract for the nice colours, like copper(ll)sulphate *beams* woohoo...emaths test on wed...hope i can pull thru the 2 topics...i have been really slack the past wk, so i'm going to concentrate this wk, meaning using very little comp :) *curbing the urge to use the net*

i got stung by a bee yesterday!! it was on my head!! and i thot it was a drop of water, since it was raining. so i swept it off and uit stung me..i went to sch and got the rcy-s to help me...haha, it's fine now *phew*
i'm so gonna miss my sisters when they are gone!! though sometimes i feel that i can have more freedom that way, sometimes i also think i will be real lonely.
well, i read yining's blog and i thot her case was really similar to mine, like my mum thinking that my dream job is one that has no future and is low-paying...but tht's not true! i mean, yeah, things can be risky, but u have to try it first b4 u even give up that thot. however, yining, u MUST have a backup plan, for practical purposes. i dun think parents are so easy to convince!
 
haiz...emaths and chi tests next wk...hope i can do the emaths one properly..there's so much to rmb..*bleagh* i realy pity 404 cos mrs C took them for orals and they got ultra low marks....so sad! glad i got hals. for mine-- he's quite lenient.
tmr got pe again! yay! hope it doesnt rain. oh, i have already planned the things that i will do after my exams
 
1) Shop till i drop
2) Burn all my books and worksheets!! (ha, we thot of having a barbecxue fire from burning bks!)
3) tidy up my place
4) find an internship with law firm or fashion company (exciting!)
5) figure out how to do my own blog template
6)write xmas cards
 
*wow* i really hope i can do all those already....how many more mths to pull thru?!??!??!!?
 
 
32 days to prelims
(to remind everyone to start if u hafnt!!!)

32 days to prelims
(to remind everyone to start if u hafnt!!!)
 

orals was not (that) bad at all! niwae, racial harmony day rocks totally...our class was so fun lah, nearly everyone wore saris *pays tribute to our roots of the muthusamy family* yeah, so as expected, lots and lots of photo-taking sessions and we were sad to part with our beautiful saris at the end cos it's probably gonna be the only time we wear it...till god knows when. our class won 3rd for the concert, so we have this neon coloured mech. pencil each. *claps claps* well, but thot prev yrs were more interesting, with the henna paintings and all
 
argh..mental block..wanted to say sth, but forgot...(ha, even for blogging)
 
chem test tmr...hope for the best!!
haf u read the commonwealth winning essay? it's good..no wonder huh? choir photo-taking tmr! well, apparently the choir enjoyed the exchange with the american choir. said they taught them line dancing. well, i think exchanges are fun. well, when we had exchange with acs(b) earlier this yr, there were ppl not knowing how to play whacko!! vei and i were quite shocked! i mean,...i thot it's a very orientation game...and they took quite long to understand...does tht say sth? *rubs chin*

oh man....it's orals tmr...*prays hard for a good pic* but i heard mr halsall is a nice examiner...
time flies!! another wkend gone!!
 
Mean Girls was really really nice! Kinda like a typical teenage chic flick, but it has substance! I encourage all girls to watch it...it really takes a girl to understand some of the emotions involved, and we understand the bitchiness better :). our row was luffing so loudly!! yah, so moral of story (meaningful) is tht being cool or popular really doesnt matter -- u will not feel any happier than before.
 
sis wanna use the comp..so write again tmr? maybe :)

yay!! it's wkend! but tmr early in the morn, there's eng lesson. not exactly the most pleasant of all things to see HER face the first thing in the morn. oh wellz..there was this percussion grp that came to perform at assembly today! quite cool! with all the cuban, indian, brazilian drums and perc. instruments. and it was xiumin's first time conducting and her hand was in a hamster like position...haha, she looked so blur!
 
heard this song  'Say Something Anyway" by Bellefire..thot it sounded quite nice! haiz...i'm so behind my plans...been rather distracted this wk. so i really hope to finish the stuff i have delayed this wkend..sounds ambitious? hope notz.
 
u noe wat? 9 works out of 12 selected from our sch won prizes and commendations for commonwealth essays!!! how cool is tht!! and there was this sec 3 gal who won the top prize for category a i think..and won 500 pounds!!!!!!! u noe, if i have tht kind of money, i will go and buy a violin! and fulfill my violin dream!!
 
yay, my nose is getting better, almost there..my orals are next mon...*shudders* i dun like the pic description cos i jus dunno what to say!!! haiz.i guess i gotta get going..cos i've lesson tmr MORN...URGHH,,,rob me of my wonderful sleeping time!! but oh well, think we watching a movie tmr..mean girls? not too sure yet

eve and janice came up with this really brilliant business idea, inspired b the keychain on janice's pencil box- to design slippers (flip flops) and brand is Funky Flip Flops (F cube)- Slip it on. haha, quite fun, then i 'freelance' for them. the 2 of them are always up to sth...well, but i think this is quite a feasible idea actually.

i am disliking eng more and more...for obvious reasons... wanying feels tht way too! hah. oh, racial harmony day next wed *excited* but nxt day got chem test...

School gave us this limited edition 'RGS tin' as a souvenir to commemorate the inaugural of RP this yr. It has a mini t-shirt tht says raffles,'04 and shoelaces, which arent very nice. But nonetheless, i think its a wonderful gift! haiz...i'm starting to feel sad abt the final farewell...everytime i step into sch, i will wonder, how many more days are left, when i can step into this sch gate. sch kinda sux in some ways but when u leave it, u really start to appreciate it...human irony

oh yah, eve and janice (up to some mischief again), they keep on holding ktv sessions, with songs ranging frm teresa teng, to the corrs, to ou de yang, to jay chou, in the middle of lessons...with eve's self-replay ou de yang song. time to learn new songs!!

i'm 3/4 way done with Da Vinci Code. It's exciting manz...but it's against Christianity.But, well, can take it from a speculative perspective i suppose? i wud really love to see the art works they mention for myself, and see if what it says is true.

oh, i have decided to start this 3days per wk of surfing plan. to prevent myself frm surfing unnecessarily. *beams* time to gear up for prelims!!!

43 days to prelims

my nose is killing me---------------------
sighz..everyone's falling sick! haiz, on my way home today, there was this chao act cool guy..ACb one...wah..i was walking quite a dist. behind him mah, then he probably heard me walking, then he turned arnd..so he knows i'm behind lah. then he very shua xin ge and act cool, conveniently threw this pc of litter on the grass..i wanted to tell him "not obvious AT ALL". as if he purposely litter in front of me liddat...weird. but the world's full of weird ppl

mtg the new comm tmr! *happy* to pass on stuff to them, and educate them, cos our seniors didnt give us any tips etc, but well, it's gd tht we had the chance to figure out stuff on our own.

yay!!! finished weathering summary! prelims are SOO near! my eng orals are nxt wk *shudders* it's so scary to know tht JC entrance is based on this...

ahh..nothing much to write abt ...heez..nxt time

my dad drove past the half done Pei hwa bldg. it's so tall..like a mini concrete jungle. gone is the wide open courtyard where we had morning assemblies and PE lessons, and those big steps lined with pots of bougainvillea..aww...i really miss pei hwa, the ppl, the tchers, even the bldg! haha

went for the law career talk and the guy was saying the pays were how high..but tht's not the main pt. but i'm afraid it's not for me...argghh...hate thinking abt all these..

kinda lazy to blog more, so yeah

had career talk for CLE jus now...went for entrepreneurship. tmr's law. i'm considering law as a second option cos the chances my mum will let me do fashion are like 1%? so i'm quite looking forward to the talk tmr. it's complicated to think abt ur future...so dun think unnecessarily...haha.

downloaded the song the sec 3s used for the farewell video. very moving song. "Our farewell" by Within Temptation.

the class video is finally finished!!! pei and i have watched it over and over for a few thousand times..haha. but very happy with the results..now we r so pleased with ourselves. oh, bond has got a new album..haha, hinted mindy liao..up to her to take actions *beams* quite pleased with the geog test..well, i made this summary of crustal movements which i am very proud of! was so motivated.

looking back on my past yr, it has been wonderful, magical, almost surreal. i've learnt so much this yr working with the choir and my perspective of choir has changed so much it's shocking...but i am really glad the tchers and the prev comm gave me this chance. really, it has been a great chapter in my life.

getting late, so am leaving this short and sweet :)
