Had to pack sec 1's bag today. We finished by 10.... but it ended at 11.40. Why? We were finding the missing bags, and some other missing things like shoelaces. And empty raffles tins did not help.
I discovered that Jolene's counting skills are no good. And err, me too. We counted 14 bags, packed them, and wrote '14' on the box. Then it turned out there were 18 inside. Whoa. (:
Had lunch with alot of PSLs, and Suet and Christ-tin were playing with my poor food. And the rest of the world was waiting for me to finish eating, cos I came late. Sorry guys!
I think RGUITAR is going to get SYF gold. Cos now we have Niboriis! Am I being ambitious? Hmmmm. :/
Emm (daddy) and Huijuen is having an affair. HAHA. (: So fun. (((((:

I've got my triple science history combi, but shucks,
"For your information, there is not enough pupils and resources to conduct the 9th subject for students like geog, hist, lit, bio. Art and Music electives are ok. " Fish! No more Lit Elective for me ):
I bet there were enough students, its just the RESOURCES. Crap. They do have enough resources, they just don't like us taking extra subjects.
Oh well. Now I'm just hoping I can get into the same class as my friends. :/
So MANY people have been ponning guitar recently. Sighs. And so MANY people are tentative about guitar camp. It's COMPULSORY, and you had better go. It is stressful trying to organise a camp, and I really don't like stress. There's deadlines and all. So yucky. Plus Ning abandoned me to go to Australia, and just came back, so it's worse and all.
Got nice feedback from the people who saw waddle banner. I am proud of us. And Siti and me are the only sec 2 CADs, don't know how we're gonna cope. Richard has 4 I think. Jolene should be reliable enough.
And now she's crapping online lah. Jolene, oh brainsize un-challenged one! (: Weirdo!
[: JøLen€ no more byebyeeeeeeee 93 says:
die, oh brainsize challenged one Oh man, I think I've getting affected. :/
Ally Bernice Alicia Kim Candice Tammie Shuhan Amanda Jolene [sick person! (:] Kelly
And the random,
Huijuen Suetping Jirui Feli Kylie Li Ju
And somemore but I lazy to list out all. I'm very sure still have. hmms. :/ If you're hurt or something must tell me on the tagboard then I'll add you to the list! (:
The more memorable stuff were-
1. Night surprise. Got woken up 2am. SPSLs tried to scare us [at bomb shelter]. Did not work.
2. Toe got knocked twice, and stepped on once. But it's ok now.
3. Got badge. If lost, 8 bucks down the drain!
4. Amazing race. Monstar won! That 500 point lead eh people? (:
5. Visualisation. I cried. Hmmms.
6. Nice letters. Alot somemore! I love letters! (:
7. Funny roleplaying. Both the SPSL and the PSL versions.
8. Singing! Lalala. -breaks glass
9. Jolene, are you ok? (:
10. Marshmellow Mogu Man. Alliteration, and laughs in the night. Yenlin got horrified, and Lynette and I were delighted.
11. Opening up sessions 1-to-1 with Sandra.
12. Sandra's pinings for Spark.
13. Running around while singing.
So, did anyone miss me?
Tagboard replies.

jolene: hi sicko! hahas be jealous cos i'm ZAI. (:
minling: haha 2-timing ur head!
milli: you're the sensible one! (: unlike minling! -shakes head
What a boring day. Had guitar practice, 9-12. I was first to take my assessment, and hence tried to waste the rest of my 2 hours and 55 minutes away. Assessment was ok, I thought I was very good initially, but when it was over Mr Chua said my expression was lacking. So I screwed. I blame it on the guitar. That good-for-nothing rots in the barbage bag guitar case on a day-to-day basis, and I’m sick of the high strings. They cause my left hand fingertips to be thick-skinned, my playing to be strained and constipated, my tone production to be beyond redemption. So this is the last straw, I’m going to file the bridge.
At approximately 11, I went down to the void deck to help paint the waddle banner. The other CADs were all M-I-A. Missing in action. Didn’t want to paint by myself, so went up to the humanities again.
Saw Huijuen along the way. I don’t think I’ve mentioned it here yet, but now I love her! No more fractions involved. (:
Went back to the humanities and ended up playing the ending song for The Champions with Clara and Charlene singing, as girl and guy respectively. Clara’s voice is grosser than the girl singing the actual song. Sorry Clara. Clara has a weird way of complimenting people, I realised. She says I suck. (:
My life seems to revolve round the waddle banner. Its almost done, really ALMOST done. Siti and I did the canyons, and it looks nice enough. Yihui and Charissa should be proud of us amateurs! (: Anyway, workplan adherence is still SCREWED.
Before painting today, went to Ngee Ann Poly for the Life Science Business Plan Competition... BRIEFING. It was boring! Fan and I weren't paying attention. I was designing some waddle stuff. They advertised the School of Business and Accounting, and the School of Life Sciences. Like wth, I don't even want to go to poly. Then sneaked out just before the presentation on Intellectual Property. The canteen food was nice! (:
And for now, tagboard replies!
wanqin: yep! (: yufang's emotional. wahahas i'll miss you! milli: ahhh so lucky! ): minling: sighhh oh no! i shldnt have wrote it in the note then you would have to guess! emily: yay! you found ur way here! (: yep grp 13 rocks! wo men shi tou!
Yesterday was hectic. Went to school for banner painting, skipped lunch. Then went for guitar practice (the outside one, not rguitar). Then went for class dinner.
Banner painting. One thing. Waddle’s banner is good. The blending’s good, the colour’s good, the creativity’s good, we’re fast, but the workplan adherence is NOT GOOD. But I still think we’ll win.
We’re pro, we’re gonna bring you down.
Then went for guitar prac. Gave Minling her belated birthday present, and was basically stoning the entire session, except for the silent night song, which clarence and I did not have the score to, and hence was playing along with them and destroying the whole thing.
Class dinner. Breeks @ Taka. I was being anti-social, together with the likes of Ning, Kor, and Cat. Yes, I know, I know, don’t go tsk tsk tsk-ing at me. Being anti-social at class dinner! ): But I couldn’t help it, there wasn’t enough space at the big table. So. Special mention goes to Kor, who, in a way, managed to look shuai and chio at the same time. Uh. Don’t ask me, ask Cat and Ning. Also Jirui, who wore revealing stuff! ): And got teased by some unkind people, which included me. (: Fan wore the rabbit tee, but angel played her out. Oh, and Fan wore a long skirt. Haha. Cat looked goth, as usual. Zhong Ning? Uh. Shirt and jeans. Haha. Look so old-fashioned. Hehhhehs. PL wore same as me! Class tee and jeans! Sarah was sweet! She gave me a wonderful letter! (: Then I wrote back to her on the paper towel. Seleena gave me a letter too! With a present somemore, so nice! (: Rach made the chocolate coated strawberries! And bought the cups! I love the cups!
But seeing my class again makes me sad. I wonder if we would ever be as close to each other as of now, after we split. I know its not possible for the friendships to last and continue to be so close. I’ll miss all my classmates, really. All the memories shall last forever. 105 ’03 and 205 ’04 rocked so much. The glorious double drama wins, netball carnivals, last year’s aesthetics project. The list goes on. How we mimic Ms Kum (good morning, ladies!), how we dislike a certain triangle, how we had disagreements, agreements. I really love all of you 205 superstars. We accepted each other despite all our flaws, our arguments, and we bonded. Yes, others may think we’re not united. But just look at drama night. We bonded.
After dinner took neos with a whole bunch of people. As we squeezed to get into the tiny frame, I cherished the moment. The neoprints are in my wallet now. It shall remain, as one of my dearest memories.
i love you i love you i love you. that's all i've got to say, i love you is that ok?
Banner Painting yesterday. I didn't know being a CAD was so tough. After the wonderfully boring emulsifying (in simple terms, painting the whole cloth white), Yihui and I went to buy brushes and water-proof poster paints. Art Friend is really cool! But stuff was expensive! *sobs* Where are all our banner funds now! Sort of spent most of it away. ): So we had to carry everything back to school after buying. It's exhausting, in case you didn't know. Imagine carrying 6 X 250 ml of paint in your bag, and dragging 1 gallon (or 5l) of paint separately. You would DIE I tell you. Yihui is really nice, she let me share her drink and all. Yihui COLOURSmy life, especially with yellow and brown. Pun IS intended, in case you were wondering.
Watched Princess Diaries 2 today. After guitar practice. And with Alicia (Keys, haha), Yao Ying, and the skin-peeling-off-cheeks-and-becoming-oh-so-red-and-furry-and-horribly-eeeky-because-of-pimple-medication Zhong Ning. She was peeling and peeling. Owww. Shall spare other gory details. Anyway Princess Diaries 2 was nice! It was funny, pleasantly corny, and not-too-icky romantic. (: I think the Nicholas guy in the movie is shuai! Gosh. This is embarrasing. It was nice lah. I was supposed to go with emm the workaholic dad, but she fell ill! ): But she's ok now, thanks to my blessed sms-es. (: Too bad didn't go with her. Hmms I want my special Children's Day! (:
Lonely fear lights up the sky Can't help but wonder why You're so far away There you had to take a stand In someone else's land Life can be so strange I wish we never had to choose To either win or lose That we could find a way (we could find a way) But I won't turn my back again (turn my back again) Your honor I'll defend So hurry home and till then Stand tall, stand proud Voices that care are crying out loud And when you close your eyes tonight Feel in your heart how our love burns bright I'm not here to justify the cause Or to count all the loss That's all been done before I just can't let you feel alone When there's so much love at home We're sending out to you All the courage that you've known The bravery you've shown Clearly lights the way We pray to make the future bright To make the wrong things right Right or wrong, we're all praying you remain strong That's why we're all here and singing along You are the voice And the guiding light Feel in your heart how our love burns bright
I went to school for PSL initiation today. Poor Zerui and Anna were late, couldn’t find the place. Initiation went well, had some talks about what it takes and what qualities you should have to be a PSL; followed by station games and songs as well. Lunch was gross, we made a veggie garden/tower/pile on someone’s lunch box. I ate faster then Huijuen! Ahas. Station games were fun, I liked the can station (Cheryl Tay + Mr Whale + Mr Beaver + Chicky) and the table football station (Huijuen). Our group’s SPSL was Cheryl (Don’t know what’s her surname, but its not Tay), and she was nice! Our Group 3 cheer was the 2/5 cheer in the chorus, but ‘2-0-5 superstars’ change to ‘group 3 PSLs’. Hahas. Then Kelly’s group had the ‘if you ain’t hip’ part. Our 2/5 cheer rocks. I like the PSB song! Its so nice and touching and all.
Baby take a look around
2/5, 2004
We’re pro, we’re gonna bring you down
2/5, 2004
Write it on a piece of paper
We’re gonna thrash you now, gonna see you later
There’s something ‘bout us
Let’s keep on moving
We’ll keep on rocking, and grooving, and shining
We’re gonna win today
And you know you’re always gonna hear us say
We’re just gonna rock today
We don’t know what it is
That makes us rock like this
You don’t know who we are
But we’re just 2-0-5 superstars And we’re gonna win all games no matter who they are
We’re just gonna rock today
We didn’t win the cheering competition, was a pity. Good job those who played! (: And that includes Fan, that wonderful shooter (haha). (: In the end got overall 4th. Not as good as last year (we got 2nd), but still, its good enough considering the amount of effort we put in as compared to other classes.
Would really like to thank Sarah and Syaz for so ingeniously coming up with a MUCH BETTER cheer and actions in such a short time! And the muslims, especially Hab and Siti, they had to play so many exhausting games while fasting. Also, those who cheered the class on with me, like Syaz, Siti, Mavis and so on. And of course, those who played in the games! You people put in 110% effort! (:
Moral was low today. We should never give up.
After netball carn, went out to lunch with Amanda L., Kelly, Cheryl and Rachel, and subsequently Kor, Jirui, Weiming and Angel. We went to the Taka basement for lunch, and I shared gelato with Manda. It was so NICE! (: Then went to watch Sharktale with Kor, Jirui and Cheryl. I thought it was cute but lame, but the ‘Carwash’ song’s nice! There was this guy sitting next to me who laughed at the wrong times, and caused me to have to stifle my untimely laughter (caused by his untimely laughter). Do i make sense? Anyway. Before the show, we saw this weirdo monkey-looking guy dancing on the dance mat in the arcade, and I think he was trying to show off. Ohwells.
And yay i'm going to watch Princess Diaries 2 really soon! (:
Yesterday was the last day of leadership camp. I had quite a lot of fun, which is quite a lot, considering my extreme fear of heights.
Shall recount one day at a time. (:
Day 1 Got to the Labrador Adventure camp. It was shabby! It was formerly a secondary school, Bukit Panjang in fact. Waddle and Richard’s sleeping quarters was the hall, and the others had bunks. Our group, 13, had Mrs Loh as our teacher facilitator. I didn’t know her before the camp though. She’s really nice! (She’s a Lit teacher btw) So anyway introduced ourselves and what thing we wanted to bring if we were stranded on a deserted island. I said I wanted to bring my precious guitar. (: Then went for rope courses. I climbed up the pole to the cross wire one, and ending up going down because I got so freaked out! Wulei came along and comforted me! (: (love you wulei!) Sigh. I hate my phobia of heights. Then we had some shoe activity, and tower activity (Both utterly hiliarious).
Day 2 I finally did a rope course! Well, two to be exactly. One was high and one was intermediate. The high one was the dustbin one! All my group members were cheering me on (encouraging the heart!), because I was about to give up. In the end I made it, and I guess everyone was happy for me. Mrs Loh also encouraged me, but it was Chloe who finally persuaded me to go. Then Preetha went blindfolded, followed by a host of other people who also were blindfolded. (Modelling the way!) AND SHE KAYE! She swung on the dustbin! All for two Mcflurries! It really “entertained” us! She Kaye shall get recruited by the circus! There was also the log one, intermediate, which I tried, but was unable to not hold the belay rope, but it still was a little success to me I guess. I love all my team mates! They really encouraged me to keep moving on!
First I was afraid
I was petrified
I thought I would fall on my backside
But then I saw you
Looking up at me
I was strong
I knew I could move on
I will survive
I will survive
Day 3 I was quite relieved that it was the last day. I mean, the hall floor’s pretty hard and all. Had station games, which were fun. But after that I had the cramps! Was supposed to do the challenge pole, or platform. Whatever. CRAMPS! Argh I hate cramps. It was excruitiating, so had to eat Panadol, and rested on one of the teachers’ bed. Mrs Loh’s I think. Got well enough rather quick, then played the rhythm game with Chloe, Preetha, Jane, Weiling, and some others. Soon almost the whole group picked it up, except for Sihui I think, she gave up on it. And Kat too. Not forgetting that loser KOR. She kept making mistakes, (haha) more than me! Now that’s saying something. Mrs Loh taught us that game! And the funny thing was, Mr Toh asked us how to play it! (: Weird but oh well. Had some time with Mrs Loh to reflect on the past days, and see some presentation she did on what happened! So touching and all (: Then she got out some presents and told us to choose one for a friend, and explain why we chose it. My partner was Siti, and she gave me a heart! Soft toy one. So sweet! I gave her this smiling bear container thing, because she was enthusiastic and smiling everyday (: I love you Siti! Ahahas. And daddy too, she gave me lots of letters! Full of crap, but still sweet all the same. (:
I love all my wonderful group members! In no particular order,
More details to be blogged tomorrow. For now I want to sleep on my nice OWN bed. (: For now, just like to say that group 13 rocks, waddle rocks, and waddle ex-co members all ROCK!
i LOVE my group members, esp siti (so sweet) and korkor (the dao-er). not forgetting emm daddy (:, who's not in the same group, unfortunately.
And die, I must finish full colour t-shirt design by 6th Nov.
