kong hwa!

Today was still okay okay.
I am very very very happy with my Hist SEQ marks 8D
Hehe. Got full marks. YAY. I was damn scared that I would fail. Hahas. But cannot get too confident and complacent. Must work hard for the next one too!!!!!!

Today, instead of Kong Hwa, we went to Meridian. For a primary school, it is quite cool and nice. It is very big. I think bigger than Compassvale Pri Sch. :) Got a buddy. Truthfully speaking, my buddy is not that smart. But must guide her along!!! x) But I still miss my Kong Hwa buddies. I want Kong Hwaaaaaaaaa~!

Anyway, our class seems to be in the "Fusion mood". Haha. Everyone is like, 'wanna join fusion?'. Including me :D I currently asking some ppl.... Trying hard to persuade someone to join me.... Nicole g is joining me ;D Getting a girl would be nice so that choosing songs wont be so difficult. :)

Now TRYING to do the History article on the founding of Singapore. GAH. Anyway, trying out a new game these days, called "Hotel City" on FB. Seems okay except the fact that I have to keep cleaning the rooms becuz of infestation.....

Anyway, I bought 2 books! Actually it was my mother who bought them for me hehe. >< They are "Cleo" and "Letters from an unknown chinese mother". I have finished reading Cleo. It was nice. Will do a book review about it someday....

Tomorrow gonna do CME... :(

~hoping it will come true

Sports meet

Sports meet was kinda boring at the starting.
Krystal and I were teasing Nic w about Miss Chan's exaggerated voice and pronounciations.
She kept emphasising on EVERY word. Especially the last one. Like, "All athletes, please proceed to the tent near the ending point NOW. IMMEDIATELY."
italics: emphasised
cap: emphasised ALOT
Haha, Nic w was like grumbling all the way. Krys and her also complained about the poor selection of songs and the fact that Lady Gaga songs were being played.
After about 1h30min, it started raining. Miss Chan made us annoyed again by asking us to cheer the rain away. GAH. When it started raining AGAIN, around 1h later, she asked everyone to cheer the rain away, again.
During the second rain, there was actually a race going on. There was one part when a DHS athlete overtook a Chung Cheng athlete. We were cheering madly! Afterwards, I realised that that person was YUPING. I did not even know that she was participating lor!!!!!!
There was one part that was frustrating. B girls ran for the 4x400m relay. One of the girls accidentally dropped the baton. But they still struggled on and came in first. However, because of the fact that they dropped the baton, they were disqualified and thus, came in 4th in the end. I was furious! They showed the Olympian spirit and kept on running. WHY SHOULD THEY BE DISQUALIFIED? Even though I know that that is the rule, I still cannot help but feel angry.

After the sports meet, yuping, vivianne, grace, maranda and I went to KFC at Compass Point to eat. Kinda like a gathering. :) Actually wanted to have it with Chung Cheng ppl but they went already. D:

EARTH hour

Science presentation: Turned out quite okay. In fact, better than what I expected :) Heehee.

Today, Suting, Nic w, Valen, Bryan and I participated in some Earth Hour program.
They orginally stated clearly in BLACK AND WHITE that it was a CLUEDO game.
Turns out that it was an AMAZING race with little cluedo stuff in it. LOL.

Anyway, we were at the LT2 and then realised that the girl from 2B who was supposed to join us ended up joining her own class, we decided to call Valen since he wanted to come actually. So we called him and then he joined. Suting, Nic w and I were in group K1 and Valen and Bryan were in group K2 as we were supposed to bond with the year 1s. So we mixed with the year 1K. Our juniors! :)

The 'briefing' and dividing of groups took like 1h 30mins. We were there practically wasting time as they tried to set up AV stuff. There was a video "Save the environment" which they showed us which was crappy. Like seriously. But really funny. Suting and I were singing all the way to annoy Nic. Hahas. So when we started, we were supposed to find out who killed Mother Earth. ._. Something like cluedo, except that it was more of physical than mental usage.

The first station was damn funny. We were like supposed to have something like Taboo. So after we figure out the word, we will tell them to Suting and a yr1 and they would get some letters from a box and try to make the words out. I lent the facil in charge there my watch. Then, we did the guessing really quickly. And we were like, "Can we help them?" "No! They are already cheating! See I let them cheat until like that already!" (Suting was taking all the letters up and flipping them over. She was supposed to take a handful, take what she need, put them back, then take again.) "But then we wanna help!" "Cannot!" Then I said, "Whatever," and started helping. HAHAHAH. The facil was like what whatever! later I deduct ur hints! Everyone laughed. Then Suting proceeded to take the box to invert the whole thing so the letters would all come out. The facil shouted, "Noooo! Thats cheating!" and stopped us. D: then, we finally finished. The facil was asking the other facil, "How ah? They cheat lehs. A lot some more." >< then he took out my watch. I took it back and said, "Aiya, never mind lahs." "But you all cheated!" "This watch is already enough for one hint lehs!" HAHA. In the end, we still got all the hints :D

The rest of the stations were ok-ok. One station was quite interesting also. The Blindfolded Throwing Something. Nicole W got chosen to be blind folded in the end. Through FAIR circumstances. Haha. Suting was like "YAY!" I became her 'eyes' and was supposed to direct her. She would put up like cans, plastic bottles and papers and throw them into the respective boxes to recycle them. The starting was pretty good but I got kinda fed up in the end. Some incidents....
Nic threw the bottle to Suting. The plastic bottle hit Suting on her forehead before bouncing back into the box. OUCH.
I wanted to say left but said right. Then when I say turn left, Nicole turned too left and hit the whiteboard.
Nicole picked up a can. She could not see the facil in front of her and wanted to throw. Lucky for the facil she got away! >)
I got really fed up and pointed to the ground and kept saying "here here here" to tell her where the stuff were. Nic was like, "Where's here?!" HAHAH. xD

Our facil was also very funny. I think he was from China so his Eng was not very good like in terms of pronounciation. But he was very funny. Haha. Especially the way he runs. He would purposely run from left to right and right to left. Kinda like roller blading. LOL. Dunno how he does it.

In the end, when we got back and finished, turns out that we have to collate answers with Valen's group, K2. And they have not come yet. They very slooooowwwww. Haha. While waiting, we traded info with 2L. Hehe. And played building blocks on Nic's phone. Suting was pestering me and caused blocks to fall down. Haha. And we waited impatiently for K2.

^The starting in LT2 where we wasted 1h 30min

^Hints and the list

^Light bulb made from plasticine. It was actually what we did for one of the stations. 

^One game made use of these rings made of newspaper. At the end of the game, we made this Olympic thingy for fun. :P

^Suting cancelled suspects and stuff for the game.


^I was being totally random and took this. Notice the second and min are the same x)



^ Us!!!! :D Valen took this picture for us. He was laughing when he wanted to take the picture. dunno why. We posed for damn long and Valen was still laughing! Then when I saw him laughing until so funny, I started laughing too. I laughed until cheeks hurt. xD
After the picture was taken, I zoomed for Suting and showed her that in this pic, her eyes looked weird. She said, "Nooooo! Let's take again!" Nic and I protested, "Noooooo!" I did not want to pose again for a photographer like Valen who keeps laughing. x)

There is no school tomorrow!!!! YAY! But there is the sports meet gah. We have to go Bedok Stadium... 
Haiz. A day full of SUNSHINE. GAH. will be sweating like mad....
Anyway......Ying Xuan, JIAYOUS! :D
[edited] Did not know that Ying Xuan did not participate. haha.

kong hwa

Yo people!

Went to Kong Hwa yesterday for Star Buddy program. It was VERY VERY NICE. AND AMAZING :D The kids there are SOOOOOOOOOO CUTE :) I cant imagine myself being that small once. We were teaching the primary fives. The students seemed a bit rowdy at first but after getting to know them, we realised that they were actually really just being KIDS. They were nice too. We played heart attack first for icebreakers. Yuan Wen was talking, got distracted and got hit. Haha. x)

Yuan Wen and I got 3 buddies. Sharing :P They were all boys: Wei Qi (i think), Qiong Wun, Yi Heng. They were reeeeeaaaaaalllllllllllyyyyy cute~! I was kinda 'attached' to Qiong Wun I guess. I 'tutored' him for maths and left Yuan Wen to the other 2 boys. Sorry, Yuan Wen!!!! >< I dunno why but then Yuan Wen made a lot of mistakes while teaching maths. In the end, the students were right while she was wrong. HAHAHAH. She was like, "Oh! Really ah?" Hahas. While they were doing their math, I went around looking at other people's buddies. Then I realised that got English!!!!!

So, after the math, we went on to do Grammar with them. They were really quite cute when they dunno how to do. Qiong Wun was especially hardworking, surprisingly. He seemed so slack at first when I saw him but after teaching him (he called me 'teacher'! xD), I realised that he was the MOST hardworking amongst all 3 of them I think. WOW.

Too bad we are only going for one more time, next week.... I WILL MISS THEM!!!!!! boohoo~ :( Should have signed up for more if I had known. Haizzzzzzzzz.

Gah. Today was compre timed practice and tomorrows the summary. LA has been pretty bad lately. Marks have been going down, down, down, down, down~ downnnnnn downnnnn, baby are you down down down down down. hehe. Tomorrow gonna present Science thingy. Hopefully it goes well. Partnering with NicG and Xuhua. ;D

docent

Today was THE BIG DAY for the trainee docents. We would finally get to put our training to the test and guide visitors around the museum.

The first group of visitors consisted of Amanda, Rachel and a little girl, the sister of someone from 2L. Even though we tried our best to seem lively, I guess we kinda failed at it cause they did seem a bit bored. Must be museum fatigue. xD Rachel did tell us some feedback that we were doing great as we tried to have a conversation with them. :D This is the first group so we should keep our spirits up! :)

The second group was a group of tourists. They were from overseas I think and one of them was I think, married to a Eurasian woman. We guided them and 2 of them seemed spontaneous. The woman, though, seemed kinda bored and started looking around.

The third group was a girl who was the twin of someone in 2L and her younger sister. They seemed kinda interested and that made us happy! :D There was also a docent with them, observing us too I think.

The fourth group consisted of Xuhua, Alvin and a teacher from DHS. They were actually quite erm, observative. Surprisingly. Though Xuhua did say a few unneccessary things. Nearing the end, Nicole came and told us to end quickly as the next group is going to come soon. So, I cut short the part about music.

The fifth and last group, was a group of Malays, possible brothers. They were actually told to watch the movie first as we were actually rushing. They were the most pro-active among all of our tourists. When i held out a picture of P.Ramlee, I thought that the eldest of them all would answer, but in the end, it was actually the youngest one who shouted immediately, "P.Ramlee!" Haha. It is kinda cool actually when you know that they are so interested. :) Grace later also told me that when she talked about the actress who commited suicide, one of them went, "Eh! Why?" And as she continued talking, he went, "Haizzz. Commit suicide....." Haha. So I think that among all of them, they were actually the best group that we received :D

Overall, this experience was a very cool one :D I mean, the self-satisfaction that you get from it is something that cannot be bought and after that 1+ hour of standing, you will feel that it is actually worth it! We had a great time too! If I have a chance, I would do it again! ;)


~being a docent rocks

Alice in wonderland

ALICE IN WONDERLAND

Went to eat buffet actually at Sakae Sushi with my cousins before deciding to watch Alice in Wonderland.
Ate sushi until very full.... yummy....!

Storyline: Alice comes back to the 'dream' that she had after 13 years. She is now grown up and was actually in the midst of being proposed to when she ran away, chasing after a white rabbit in a vest with a ticking clock. She fell into a hole and viola! She is in 'Wonderland' where the Red Queen rules ruthlessly. The hatter and many others have been awaiting her return to save them and kill the deadly dragon. She is confused and does not believe that any of these are real. To her, this is just another nightmare or dream. She struggles with her inner self to bring out who she really is and what she really wants.

Verdict: I love the colourful images and wonderful sound effects! The makeup and everything are perfect! However, the story does seem a bit slow in the beginning until when Alice meets the Hatter. The voices of everyone are perfect as well. Anne Hathaway's voice is very good as it is normally soft and gentle, except for the part when she sounds serious and deadly as she warns Alice about choosing her choices. The only, perhaps, loop-hole is that I do not know what is the moral or meaning of the show. Is it finding oneself? Or is it nothing is impossible? Or is it looks can be deceiving? Hmmm....

Rating: 4/5 
Even though I do not really get the moral of the story, it is still a good watch for both kids and adults and at least, there is a storyline. :)

In....ter....net....work...ing....slow...ly

My internet is working soooooooo slowly. Gahs.
later gonna go eat sakae sushi buffet with my cousins. :) gonna pass them free tickets to the show, "Being Human" directed by Jack Neo.
Currently, feeling terribly sleepy, dunno why. OHHHHHH. I think I know why now.... Just now I ate medicine for the flu. GAH. Big mistake. Now i feel like dozing off straight away. Never mind, later then sleep in my aunt's car. Haha. Weird.
Woke up at 9 today. Did chinese hmwk!!! Printed out the pictures, all thats left is to collate and cut and paste them onto coloured paper. :) Left one more chi newspaper review..... Planning to finish it on Friday, along with Nat Geo worksheet. Then, on sat or sun, will plan to do the dreadful maths. :(

Had museum guiding prog yesterday. Still desperately trying to find a visitor to visit the museum. Why is it that everyone seems busy tomorrow?! Haiz. Yesterday was fun. :D After the guiding prog, the bunch of us went to Pastamania to eat. The pasta that I ordered was Basil Chicken Aglio. Very nice. Though should be spicier. x)
After that, went to macs with Grace, Krystal and Nic w. We ordered fries first while trying to think of problems as well as getting the laptop started. In the end, we finished the questions, but the laptop hasn't started yet. Haha. We were like begging the laptop to start faster. In the end, we were like, what did we bring the laptop for??? Haha.
Then went back home while Grace and Nicole w. went to do Geog with Suting.....

Hope that i can find a visitor to goooooooooooo. GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
sleepy...... zzz

Gasp! The horror!

Gasp!!!! The horror!!!! Well.... Basically I am gasping at the horror of the hmwk we have even during this long-awaited short one week holiday. Why do they have to take away our last chance of FREEDOM? Gahs. So yeah. The stuff that I have to do/go out for on the following days:
Monday - Meet up at the museum to chiong the script... Hopefully will be able to finish!
Tuesday - Museum guiding program
Wednesday - Most prob gonna do/chiong FPS
Thursday - Museum guiding program
Friday - Gotta do homework which includes chi (the horror)

GAH. So many stuffs. Luckily I did abit of my chi already. To those who haven even started, JIAYOUS AND GOOD LUCK! Haha. Dun mean to sound sacarstic or anything. >.<  Still have a little bit flu and cough. Hate the cough. Damn it.

Yesterday went to eat dinner at a place at my grandma house there. One of the dishes was a pig TROTTER. So yeah. Can roughly imagine the expressions on our faces bahs. I mean, its like one BIG HUGE FAT PIG TROTTER in front of us. And we gotta eat it. But we did eat it in the end. xD HAD to. LOLs. Anyway, Happy birthday to the two cousins! :)

Currently still debating over the timing to meet up for FPS and days. Days are like virtually(reality-ly) filled up.
And FPS is like SO HARD AND DIFFICULT. You gotta rack your brains out just for one problem. But then we have to think of SIXTEEN problems. Just to one scene. Gahs. Why in the world do we need so many problems? Get it??? xP Haiz......

Anyway, there have been many ongoing controversies over the "Jack Neo Cheated" episode.
That is JACK NEO. To the people who dunno him, just in case. I mean, we have seen his movies and stuff and they were mostly revolving around one big issue and topic: FAMILY.  So, WHY IN THE WORLD HAS THE GUY WHO DIRECTED SO MANY HEARTFELT, TEARS-RENDERING MOVIES CHEATING? *gasps* I did not know about it until I saw the video of his conference where his wife fainted on the news. I did not really think that he was this kind of guy. And what's more, there had recently been many cases of such "He cheated on his wife" cases going on. I can name a few here: Tiger Woods, John Terry and such. Is this the latest trend???

You work hard, marry, have kids, happy ending. That's what everybody wants. So why are there so many people digging their own grave? In addition, he is FAMOUS. Once you are famous, people will want you to become INFAMOUS. Like, seriously. He has been in this business for many years. Why did he still do it? He has kids, shouldn't he think about them for a minute before he went on to do whatever-stuff-that-is-being-published now? I pity his wife, really. The wife has to take care of the kids and the house and MAINTAIN it even though it is collapsing right now.

As for the other girls who come out to say that they have been 'connected' to Jack Neo even though he disagreed, I really hope that they will think about the family that they are breaking up here. Don't you even feel guilty? You are breaking up a family! And, if those accusations that you make are not true, then you are really.... (no words can express). Trying to gain fame by making use of the situation, eh?

Anyway, I hope that Jack Neo learns his lessons and stop doing such things. Repent and treat your wife better in the future. And to all those other tempted husbands, or even wives, out there, DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.

Half day

This post is regarding Thursday, 11 March 2010, yesterday.

Yesterday was HALF DAY! Last period was PE so we were damn happy sia~! Most of them went to play basketball. Gen and I went to borrom volleyball from Ms Lee. Then, Krystal, Grace, Gen, Weirong and I played volleyball. After a while, Pamela came. Was really sunny and hot. But we had great fun!!!!! :D

Afterwards, almost the whole class started playing volleyball. Valen, Xuhua and Mingyu kept serving damn far. Spoil our game... :( Then, most of the class went back to volleyball again. After playing enough, we decided to go Benedict's house. Went to White Sands then with Ming yu, Yohanes, Gerald, Bryan, Krystal, Grace, Nic g, Benedict, Felix. :) Ate macdonalds while listening to lame jokes though we still laughed.

Then, we shopped around for Pamela's gift to store the stars. Finally saw something like a divider to put stuff in. Looked really nice. :) Finally, we set off for Benedict'd house. Ming yu and Gerald left then. Walked to his house and got a minor side-stitch then cuz ate macs. ._. When we arrived, we obviously started looking and walking around his house. Saw the paintings that Benedict's mother drew I think. Damn nice. Really cool. I think can sell lors. :D

Then started playing cards while listening to Yohanes play piano, again. haha. Then halfway through, we started playing stress. And Benedict, who claimed to be the King of Stress came 'challenging' people to see if he has 'lost his touch'. Haha. He was damn fast lahs. I managed to stress him if not I think he would have won. :P

Went back home afterwards. Damn tired.
Had a sore throat and today, I got flu and cough.... GAH.

Anyway, received news that I got into Chinese Society, amazing. I thought that the audition did not go well lors.... Dunno lors. Gonna try and find out when will I start....

And my tests are not that bad. Currently. I very scared of the maths. :(

Yuan wen's hse

This is a post regarding Tuesday, 9 March 2010.

On that day, there was supposed to be Kong Hwa star buddy programme. Then, Yohanes, Nicole G, Gen, Ming Yu, Yuan Wen and I were waiting at the foyer. We waited and waited. Then decided to check out if there was really a star buddy prog. We called and called but could not contact Ms Tan. Was damn pissed lahs. I mean, she should have told us first!

Then in the end, due to some weird unexpected ideas, we decided to go Yuan Wen's house. Travelled there and walked and walked in the endless maze of detached houses. Finally, we reached her house. The house was damn nice lahs. Got like 3 storeys!!!!! Saw her cat, Shadows too. Was a bit scared that it would scratch me though.

And of course, Yohanes started playing the piano. Nic, Gen, Ming yu and I started playing cards. Tried teaching them bridge but failed. Fought over Ming yu's phone. I scored like 3 secs for the pulling toilet paper roll!!!! Yes.....! xD

Then we went to the computers and started 'doing' our SIP.... but kinda digressed and moved on to Sims 3 in the end. Played with the characters and made them fat, skinny, fat, skinny.......Finally, we decided to go back... Walked with mingyu, gen, nic. Yohanes claimed that he knew a short cut or sumthing and went on by himself.... In the end, we kinda got lost... Then we asked a women and a boy where should we head to to go to the MRT. They pointed in DIFFERENT directions. Was funny. In the end, we found out where the MRT was... Tired. x)
