A YEAR Without Posts

WTH, a year passed by just like that :O Honestly completely forgot about this blog till my friend chanced upon it ><

 Hmm.. Must say a lot's changed in the past year. People changed, life's started to change, basically everything's had some form of change. School life's gotten WAY more hectic, CCA just got a whole lot shittier (is that even a word? never mind), yeah the usual. And then now even relationships with people are straining one by one.. WTF.

 ANYWAY! HAPPIER STUFF. My last post said Glee Season 3 was coming out soon. Well, a year forward, Glee Season 4 is upon us! :D And once again they're doing a Britney Spears tribute episode!!!! Hits such as Oops!...I Did It Again, Gimme More and Boys will be covered (:

 There's also this craze going on about SongPop, a Facebook game that allows you to pit your knowledge of songs against your friends. I kinda got addicted to the Country genre after playing it XD

 Oh well, look at the time, I'd best be getting back to my holiday homework now x.x CIAO! (:

 

 ~I'm done hoping that we could work it out~

Oh. My. God.

I think this is the longest hiatus from blogging I've ever taken... Thing is, I didn't and still don't have much to post about.

Well 2011 has entered the final term and I'm not too optimistic about SA.. Ah well no sense worrying about it like 22 days before the actual thing. :P

The 請你跟我這樣做 group is still fun but looks like I gotta do something to make people feel more bonded. (:

Anyway, Glee Season 3 is coming out in 5 more days! Can't wait! :D

Juniors ROCK! :D

Ok this post was actually for yesterday, but I completely forgot(As usual ><).

So, self explainatory title again. =D

Yesterday, the sec ones came!!!! WOOHOO! I've been waiting so long!! :D I'm so impatient to be a senior huh. >.<

And I already made friends with a junior! :D His name's Noel, and he was actually quite shy, hopefully he opens up soon! :) And as expected, there were few sec ones present. 2 Basses, 2 Sopranoes, 7 Altos, ??? Tenors. The blank is coz I haven't really found out the exact number.

And bass sectionals were different today! We went to the 4I classroom for sectionals! Apparently it was open, how convenient. :D

Revising "The Wind" was really fun, since we were adding dynamics, and they sounded really funny. >< Ah well.

CNY practices start tomorrow, and we are singing a TTBB song as well. This is weird, since we are back in SATB already. O_O Oh well, at least I'll be singing with the tenor 2s again. :D

Things never go this way...

Things always go that way, huh... Ok it made no sense whatsoever, grammar weirdness. o_O

Anyway turns out I wont be using this blog for my blog assignment after all. My teacher had decided that we were to start a new blog from scratch. And he said he would be checking our blogs even after the assignment was over. So, looks like I just MIGHT be blogging on 2 different blogs! Which is real stupid, really, since I've been using this blog ever since I've begun actively blogging... Ah whatever, that blog will be used for something, I'll think of something in due time. =D

Anyway, Sec 2 life is getting hectic. Well about time... Finally the merciless homework sea is reaching high tide, and we're at the shore. :O Not fun at ALL. :(

And I'm starting to lose my love for literature, must be because of all the plays and whatnot we're learning this year... Sigh, hopefully the project ISN'T gonna dramatise Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet"...

"Oh Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art hou, Romeo?" Ok I can't get that out of my head. o.o

Sigh, I should really be sleeping now, so ciao!

EEP. 48?!

Ok this is ridiculous in the entire sense of the word. A hiatus twice as long as the previous one!!! Ok fine i simply forgot all about this blog. >.<

Blog: :'(

Ok, looks like I've gotten adjusted to my sec 2 life already(YAY HOW SLOW). So, not much difference from Sec 1 yet, the real hectic schedule in school isn't starting yet... Anyway, I turned 14 a few days ago, and boy is it a great feeling, because soon, I'll have some juniors to "bully"!!!! XD

Speaking of juniors... The new sec ones are, well, bitchier than I had expected. Like seriously, worse than my batch, and that's saying a LOT. And also noticeable was the extremeness of their heights. There were barely ANY with height considered "average". The shorter ones were literally tiny, and the tall ones were "giants". I get the feeling some of them are going to be towering over me soon...

And as for choir, it's still the same. The only difference for me is being transferred to Bass. That's something I have yet to get used to. I probably will in due time though. Altos, I'll still try to return, so wait for me! :D

Ok that's about it for the changes in my school life from sec 1 to sec 2...

And if you noticed i changed the skin again. And this blog will also be used from time to time as my homework blog for the blog assignment i think we were supposed to get today. Unfortunately I'm ill so I did not go to school today. 2I, DETAILS PLEASE! XD

Mark of 24

And that is how many days it's been since my last post. I figured I'd post about the choir camp I returned from just 3 days ago. :)

Day 1 (Friday 19/11/10)

It was the first day of camp. I'll skip straight to the first activity.
The first activity was given to us straight off the bat. We were design our group umbrella. Before anything else, I was in the group led by Kok Jin, Group 4. We observed the 8 sides of the umbrella and came to a conclusion. We would use 6 of the sides to describe a value thought up by each member, saving the last 2 for group designs. This was successful, and our form of presentation was unique, compared to other groups. We chose to use short 10 second skits to represent each value. The values were - Orange (Sweet & Sour), Hyper, Teamwork, Spirit, Heart and Interesting. The acronym would be HISHOT. We then went for practice. I shall skip this too. To the amazing race. It was a terrible start. We were completely out of sync with each other, and ended up in last place really quick. When all seemed lost, however, Kok Jin and Dennis, our leaders, took charge and instantly increased our morale. We were consistently catching up, albeit slowly, until the final station of the school, where we managed to solve the riddle really fast, propelling us to 3rd place, where we stayed for the whole of the East Coast Park segment, and where we ended. That would be it for the activities of the first day.

Day 2

Activities for this day: Talent Time, Practices

I will be brief. We learnt a new song, NOT an SYF piece, it's called Keep in the middle of the road.

For the talent time, we were to do a skit based on a quote. Dennis, being his humourous self, chose Macbeth and MR MARAN quotes. Lol. I would say the skit was well planned, but not exactly well rehearsed, which lead to COUNTLESS impromptu lines in the actual performance. Thankfully some of the lines were really funny, saving our hides.

Day 3

Cleaning. Nuff said.



0-0-0-0-0-0

GOOD LUCK, P6s! Tomorrow is the day of reckoning! GAMBATTE!

October's... Over

Right, relax, not gonna emo or anything of the sort. :D

Let's see... What to talk about.. Oh ok. OPEN HOUSE!

VS open house 2010 was... CROWDED!!!

But before I talk about that, let's assess the performance by the choir. :)

Not really up to the full potential, but the audience seemed to love it. :) I guess that's what really matters. After all, we perform for the enjoyment of the people. But of course, we need to be satisfied with our performance to be able to bring joy with it...

Then after the performance, went down with Keith to the canteen, and got BLASTED by the Chinese Orchestra playing Wonder Girls'"Nobody". WOW.

Oh, this was yesterday, by the way. :D

Anyway, it was soooooo crowded; Never seen the school so crowded before, well except the canteen haha. :P

And yesterday marks my first chat with Soo Han! YAY.

So today was Halloween... Hey look behind you. That pumpkin looks dangerous.

LOL.



Kimi Ga Iru Kara (Because you are here) by Sayuri Sugawara.

Final Fantasy XIII OST 84. That's a lot of tracks. Anyway, this song was performed by Mel on Teachers' Day, but I never really got around to listening to it. And isn't it weird to post this on HALLOWEEN? A scary day, and a song called "Because you're here". Ooo... Eerie... o.O

The insanity

I am sure of this. I've almost never screwed up this bad before. Only time was in CA1... NEVER have I scored B3 for Physics... NEVER EVER! And now I did... Haiz I have been completely devastated by this result...

But enough of that. I'll just pull these grades up with my stronger subjects...

There's something bothering me lately though. THE HAZEEEEE~

Choking haze is enveloping Singapore yet again! Anyone realise that this is happening almost annually now? VS is seriously covered in haze now... Impaired vision is the least of our worries though, since the haze causes more than that...

HAIZ...

Perfect ten + HISTORY EXAM

Dual part post desu. AGAIN.

Parto UNO

10/10/10. This type of date comes only once every 100 years. And what were we doing on this perfect day of 十全十美? MUGGING. For students, at least. This was because EOYs are ongoing, and we can't afford to relax. You may ask then, why am I here instead of MUGGING TILL I GO MAD? I kind of gave the answer.

Answer: I'd like to preserve my sanity for now, I will lose it after EOYs anyway. :)

Haha Lol. True isn't it?!

Ok this part is so short because it was a SUNDAY...



---

Parto DOS

Today was history SA2, and it was NEUTRAL-BAD... SEQ was on the same 2 chapters that we had for the mocks, government and society and religion and philosophy. WHY DIDN'T I SEE THAT COMING... And YI JIE, WHY DID YOU HAVE TO BE SO GOOD AT PREDICTING... Taoism really came out AHHHHHH

Haiz tomorrow is math and PE theory exam, phew a brake from insanity...

Hey isn't this just as short?!

The hell of language exams

This post will in two parts, since I'm writing two days worth of stuff... :D

---
Parto Uno

Both the paper ones are complete, meaning that there are no more essays to be written dang...

Anyway, I should have posted this yesterday...

English paper 1 - Not much of a problem, nice topics to work on, except for the fact that I chose a safe topic, so to stand out I should use a riskier form of language? That IS what's expected right?????

English Paper 2 - Universal term for SCREWED UP. I have absolutely no idea what I was writing for the comprehension answers. AT ALL. The summary paraphrasing was weird no matter how I looked at it...

Chinese Paper 1 - Yay, something I can actually write properly... And I broke my record for the length of my 作文, 2 and 1/2 pages :)

So sums up this part of my post. This post will be quite long due to all the MVs, HAHA!!

Here's something I found out yesterday after phototaking...

VICTORIA SCHOOL OPEN HOUSE 2010 IS HERE!!!

Details!

Event: Victoria School Open House
Date: 30th October 2010
Time: Go find out, it's on the websote :P
Location: Victoria School (LOL DUH). Address again look at the website.

Performances by the CCAs! Not sure how many there are, but I do know that the choir is performing! Here are the songs that we will be performing!







Tadah! Time to practise them! Hope to see you at the Open House!

Exam craze

考试驾到还不快立正站好~

Lol a change of lyrics in the chorus of 女王驾到. :)

The exams are here! They start tomorrow! Hmm... What are the days? Lol I didn't even check! Ok hold on! Hmm... Ok. I have EL paper 1 & 2 tomorrow, HCL paper 1 on friday, History on Monday, Math on Tuesday, Science on Wednesday, HCL paper 2 on thursday and Literature on Friday.

This is such a weird order... Anyway at least I have a whole weekend to mug for history! YAY! I realise I'm online more often than I should, but... It's one of the ways I keep my concentration and sanity, so I have no choice...

Let's see.. What song today... Hey I know! 喜欢你怎么办!

Hee Hee~

Hee hee, my scores are in the reverse of what I'd prefer them to be...

My ICAS is a distinction. but my tests are disasterssss...

Proof: ICAS Math - Distinction. Top 2% in S'pore (YAY my best yet!)
Math Test on Construction - 5/10 WHATTTTTTT

Hee Hee enough evidence? Summon the literature text-based questions and History source-based questions!!! Lol.

Sigh I feel hypocritical. A previous post of mine talked about how blog post are becoming so short, and now I'm doing the exact same thing I criticised...



Hey this is an old song of hers! Chinese version of M2M's "The Day You Went Away"

Essay writing

Haiz I think my essay assignment is out of point..

The topic is on "tears" and my essay seems to talk about friendship more than that... Haiz

HMM??? FOREHEAD WRINKLES?! AHHHHHH!!!!!

Ok that was random. Coz i happened to see my reflection, and that came up. Lol.

Ok maybe I shouldnt be up here, still hav hw to do...

4 Days to SA2~
12 Days to Freedom~

Who knew?

Who knew tests were this lethal?

I mean, today most of all. Since today was Childrens' Day, it meant that it was the first Childrens' Day that the sec 1s went without it being a holiday.

As if that weren't enough, my class had 3 tests today, all nuts like crazy. Wait. Change "Lethal" to "FATAL", please. Lol.

And if you're wondering why I'm taking such a long time to post, it's because facebook made my com lag a lil and I'm busy mugging for SA2.

TESTS

And on Childrens' Day no less. THREE OF THEM.

GOSH huh? First year without Childrens' Day and we get three tests to replace it. Talk about bad tradeoff!

Haiz dun feel like talking about them. Science Practical, History and Math. Die le...

And then there's the need to mug for exams later on. Busy lives we lead hmm?

Indignance

Welcome to a speech about all the dead blogs out there.

Please welcome Old Major!

Ok forget it Lol.

But seriously, all the blogs are dying somehow... WHY? WHY? WHY? I'll tell you why. Facebook and Twitter are apparently becoming more popular than blogger, and what's more, they don't exactly require long messages. Blog posts, normally, are rather long, probably a whole page on the typing space. Of course, posting MVs or pictures helps do that nicely, you'd think. WRONG. I refer to only the words typed out. As of here, it's already more than half the typing space.

So concludes my ranting. I AM FEELING INDIGNANT FOR BLOGS.

Justification is allowed though, since I know you guys are quite busy so you can't blog, I fully understand.

Another perfect song today? Ok. 孤单摩天轮 Lonely Ferris Wheel by 飞轮海 Fahrenheit!

SA2 aka Predator, Students aka PREY

Hmm... That actually makes sense haha.

Let's practise for inference questions!

Take the post title as Source A.

Study Source A, what can you infer? (No set thing to infer about, 自由发挥)

L1/1: SA2 is dangerous
L2/2-3: Students are frantically preparing for SA2
L3/4-5: SA2 is approaching, and students are unprepared. Hence, they might do badly. This explains the analogy of predator and prey when describing SA2 and Students, respectively.

Hmm... I feel like I'm doing Literature Text-Based questions rather than History Source Based questions. Hey wait, the format and methods for both are the same lol!XD

Ok so. I am quite confident for which subjects, you might ask? Ok I shall enlighten you(Ok why am I making myself sound so high and mighty haha).

1. Physics (In my case this is Science Module 2 so it does not hold as high a percentage as Chemistry, my Science Module 1, you will find out why that's bad soon)

2. Literature (Lol my strongest subject as of now ><)

3. Mathematics (Except construction, my WORST topic haiz)

4. Biology (Hello? I didn't get 2nd in level for this in CA2 for nothing ok?!)

And that's about it. Now, what subjects am I COMPLETELY not confident of?

1. CHEMISTRY (Now do you see why my science grade is in danger?)

2. HIGHER CHINESE (No surprise here either, although...)

Hmm that's about it. The rest are neutral. HCL is still manageable so I GUESS I could scrape a B at least? Hey I AM aiming for top 3 in class OK?! My standards need to be brought to the limit to beat Viknesh, Lyndon and Yi Jie OMG. Not to mention that there are many other skillful people in my class, I think I might have to settle for just top 10...

Haiz no song I can think of to post... OH WAIT THERE'S THIS ONE!



The MV was just released today no wonder I couldn't find it before!

And this MV is quite... Wild? For an asian group I mean so don't go telling me the western ones are more wild because I know full well that that's true.

Btw, anyone noticed this song makes the singer sound masochistic?

Oh and Calvin Chen 辰亦儒 finally stars in their MV since he got his new short hairstyle. :)

English Informal Letter

Self-explanatory title again~

Either way, it was the informal letter writing test for my class today, postponed by one day coz my EL teacher was ill on Tuesday so he couldn't revise it with us... ADVANTAGE FOR 1I YAYS~

Lol I was kidding...

So anyway, I outdid myself aka exceeded word limit again. This is probably the (Insert EXTREMELY LARGE number) time I did this already~

Word limit: 250-350 words
Written: 527 words

Woah. Not my usual length, for sure. Given my standard, I'd have written possibly 700+ words but my teacher said try your utmost not to write that many so no choice...



Track 1 of Fahrenheit's fourth album~

Silver Anniversary~

Ok I call this silver anniversary due to this being the 50th post on this blog, not the 50th whatever.

Oh yes, today was the episode of Gatekeepers that I was looking forward to a lot. Wanna know why? It's because MAHA BODHI SCHOOL was on today YAYS!!! Oh, so now it's confirmed that my primary school is Maha Bodhi.

Oh right, you might not know of this show. Let me explain.

Title: Gatekeepers 小兵迎大将
Channel: Mediacorp Channel 8 新传媒 8 频道
Time Slot: Every Tuesday 每逢星期二 8pm - 9pm

This shows features 3 celebrities facing off against 36 students, usually Primary 6, from a specific primary school. The roster changes every week, of course. The first three episodes featured Catholic High Primary, Raffles Girls' Primary and Anglo-Chinese Primary, respectively. Today's episode, the fourth, featured Maha Bodhi School. Next week's episode, the fifth, will feature Nan Hua Primary. They will be facing off against the trio of rising stars - Dai Yangtian, Zhou Ying and Zhang Zhenhuan. Who will emerge victorious? Tune in next Tuesday, 28th September 2010, to find out!

Oh wow I'm helping them advertise! =P

Anyway, as a thank you to all readers who have been faithfully following my blog(Apparently only at most 2 from what I see Lol), I have a special song by Fahrenheit 飞轮海 - 最佳听众 The Best Listener!



Finally I can put a song that actually fits with my title...

Oh yeah I managed to find this version which includes english translations for the lyrics :)

So, my 最佳听众, enjoy the song!

Oh the craze...

18 days to SA2~

And I'm having MAJOR premonitions... WAIT did I spell it right?! See what I mean? I'm making mistakes and I don't even know the correction! Ok fine this is not a good example, since there's spellcheck on blogger, but you get what I mean. I mean, you DO, don't you?

So is it premintion or premonition?

Oh, WAIT. Preminition looks plain wrong. Ok looks like I corrected myself without noticing. >.<

OK getting on with the show. I'm actually for once glad that I had 2.4 retest today. Chances are you don't about the reason unless you happened to be at the football field(HECK I know this only because Jun Rong told me), so I shall explain. I heard that during the final round in the football match in the class, my teacher FORCED - I repeat, FORCED - one of the groups to play toplessssss... I mean, COME ON! The normal thing is shirt tucked out, NOT shirt taken off! Ridiculous!

Anyway, I think I'm probably overreacting, so I shall stop here.

So it looks like I'm gonna have to rely on my essay score to pull up my english grade AGAIN... Haiz...

... Why do I suddenly get an urge to write? x.X

Ok SO. I AM NOT CONFIDENT ABOUT THE EXAMS. AGAIN.



Yays, finally time for a pokemon song. The DP ending 6, which is over liao, Kimi No Mune Ni Lalala! In english it's "In your heart, Lalala".
