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.

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!!

Parto Dos

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".

REVAMP!!!

Why am I even bothering to post abt revamps?

Anyway, I changed the design of the blog(COME ON, SURELY IT'S OBVIOUS FOR THOSE WHO VISIT MY BLOG OFTEN excuse the caps) and removed the song lyrics page replacing it wif links to my friend's blogs.

OMG I feel fickle minded. I deleted all the pages and returned the blogs to the links gadget.

I may add a cbox some day but... have added the cbox.

Anyway, term 4 is no different from term 3... Still the same busy term.

RESULTS

It's strange how these posts are somehow ALWAYS delayed by one day...

Anyway, we got our report cards back yesterday. I ended up being in the top ten yays! Finally achieved my target!

And another target was achieved at the same time - An MSG of below 2! Specifically 1.9 in this case.

Calculated my L1R5, it was 8. Time to make some improvements, so that my SA2 one can be a 6 =P

Oh yes, and my name is FINALLY on the top scorers board HURRAYS. For literature and biology no less:)

So after this boost in confidence, we went for the beach cleaning CIP(Community Involvement Programme). This time we were to pick only cigarettes. ECP was literally LITTERED with them i tell you. Each group collected an average of 400 each! Multiply that by 12 for the number of groups per class and then by 9 for the number of classes, and what do you get? A whopping 43200! O. M. G!!!!!

It's crazy huh? Say no to cigarettes, people!

Teachers' Day

OK MEGA LATE POST

I WAS BUSY YESTERDAY SORRY!!!

Ok ANYWAY. Yesterday was teachers' day! YAYS!

So school was only half day, to allow us time to visit our Primary School teachers! Needless to say we all rushed back. Oh, almost all of us.

But before i talk about the MBS 'tour', let's talk VS! (LOLS)

The assembly was conducted in the auditorium for the sec 1s as we had a briefing. Specific details I will not divulge. >.<

Following that were the 1st two periods, however as our Biology teacher was not around, we had TWO FREE PERIODS. CHAMPANGE!

So after that we went for the concert. The opening performance was by none other than MEL, a fellow ALTO!!

After the performance, it was announced that it was the principal's B'Day!!

We all rushed back to our primary schools after that. Haha, I was a little early, but it looked like some people were earlier.:)

Anyways, it took a while, but all my friends came at last. So we "raided" the classroom. It was a DISASTER. Littered. And then we left for 10 minutes, and it was completely clean. The cleaners were soo effecient. Just like how they were last year. A big surprise (or shock, however you want to deem it) was waiting. I found out the choir chairman was from MBS. OMG OMG OMG.

Ok I only stayed 3 hours, was gonna stay a little longer... SOBS...

Thoughts of singers (Chinese, DUH)

I figured I'd post about my favourite singers and my fave songs that are sung by them. :)

光良：There's something in his songs that really touches your heart. Perhaps it is because of the feel he injects into them. Gentle, soothing singing is probably the best thing to listen to when you are trying to calm down. :)

杨丞琳：Ok, another singer with a gentle voice. She is a good dancer too. Nice singing too. She's quite a good singer.

S.H.E: A group of three female singers, named Selina, Hebe and Ella. This group has worked it's way up to the peak of fame in Taiwan, where they are based. They are also famous in other parts of the world as well.

There are many more favourites, but I shall stop here.

The results, they're scary...

Like I said, the results scare me...

CA2 is over except for Home Economics, and I am soooo not confident about them.

History: Ok Lol I got my results already. 18/20. Third in class. YES, FIRST IN CLASS WAS FULL MARKS! Joshuaaaaa..... Ok anyway this is only 40% of the CA2 mark. The remaining 60% is from a project that is not going too well...

Math: It is said(and confirmed by the teacher XD) that there are less than 10 failures and 7 of them are in the first 12 in register number. Thankfully I am 17. So I am in a safe situation. However, I am aiming for an A1, and this may not be possible as the last question is a near confirmed total wrong for me, and it is worth 8 marks. In a paper worth 25 marks, even 1 mark can be a BIG difference...

English: I have received word that there is one question that the whole class got wrong. This question is worth mark. Again, this paper is worth a low mark. I forgot if it was 20 or 25. Again, even 1 mark is important.

Literature: I am unsure about the points I made in my answers. I am also unsure about the percentage of marks in the CA2 that it is worth. The other part of the mark is from a project. Essentially it is a dramatisation. My group is almost ready but some props are still not ready... Also the scrit still needs amendments...

Higher Chinese: My worst subject. Need I say more?

Biology: Hmm... I gambled on a few questions. :)

Oh ya, My ICAS Science was a distinction, one of three in my class. Yays.

35%

That is the percentage of ppl in my homec class that are cooking non-textbook recipes for the practical exam. Furthermore, only 10% are cooking family recipes. Oh FORGET IT.

Today was the english and math exam. I screwed the last question of math, 8 marks of 25 fly away. Maybe not, if METHOD MARKS are available. Hopefully if there is I'll get boosted to A instead of B3...

Next is the english. It was not too screwed since I'm onli not confident of 1 question. Hopefully I can beat my rival this time. Of course I'm not naming him, I'm not a jerk.XD

Tomorrow is the biology and chinese exam. The chinese summary is going to screw me big time. Might nid to drop HCL next year to protect my chances in the Sec 3 subj combinations... Not that I want to, of course...

Biology is testing us on Photosynthesis, Cells, Respiration, Digestion and one more. I forget what. Oh well:)

Finally, choir prac is getting reinstated for me, after a long 3 monthssssss...

MV page update

I hav decided to put only a few MVs in that page. These will be my current favourites. For other videos, look around at the posts. Have fun finding all of them.

Too much time

I seem to have a lot of time on my hands lately. Not really a bad thing, but I'll end up bored more times than I want.

Anyway, I went album hunting today, disappointing result. Never mind.

Tomorrow is National Day, and it appears the NDP will be completely different for the previous years.

Oh, today is the last episode of The Sheng Siong Show. The special guest is 张芸京, whom you may know as a female singer who sports short hair and dons more masculine attire. Her latest album, The Opposite Me 相反的我, has her show a more feminine side. Before this, one of her more famous singles is Black Skirt 黑裙子.

I know you're probably complaining about why I keep posting Guang Liang songs, so here's one of 张芸京's latest songs, 坏了. Reason for choosing this song is because she will probably be singing 相反的我 later:) I'll probably post it in music videos page anyway...

Exams

I seem to remember a post with a similar title somewhere around this blog. Oh whatever.

Anyway, as I was saying, the CA2 is approaching. I have a reputation for not doing well in CAs, so I hope this time will be different. In this post I will be talking about my feelings towards some of the exams.

Firstly, the Home Economics exam. I'm not so concerned about the theory exam. What I'm concerned about is the practical. I'm a disaster in the kitchen. Therefore, I will be looking into something simple to cook. However, the only problem is that what I know how to cook might no fit with the theme, which we will receive next lesson, which is unfortunately two weeks from now. Oh dear...

Secondly, the History exam. I did not do very well during the class test, mostly thanks to the Source-Based Question(SBQ) section. It involves making an inference based on the source provided. There is nothing much that can be done to prepare for this section, so I'll depend on my luck.

Thirdly, the Literature exam. This exam will be text-based questions. This probably means they will be providing the text. This would mean there is no need to memorise the book. Phew.

That is basically all the new subjects that will be examined. Biology is considered as Science and therefore is an old subject, so I'll not talk about it.

As always, a random song to end this off.

I just don't get it

I simply cannot fathom the thinking of people sometimes. Oh, don't worry, it's nothing political. It is with regards to songs. Lol I know, but I have to voice this out.

I cannot fathom why so few people like chinese songs. I am one of this few, hence my stand. I dare say that if you conduct a poll in my school regarding the language of songs they listen to, I can assure you that at least half will say they don't listen to chinese songs.

What I cannot understand is why. WHY do they not like chinese songs? I have no idea. Well, maybe I should know, for it is probably the same reason for why I do not listen to many english songs.

In any case, what I am trying to say is this. I am tired of being labelled as weird because I do not fit in because I do not listen to a certain language of songs. I am who I am, and that goes for my preference of songs too. This will not change, so live with it.

I am glad I managed to voice out my thoughts about this.

This is the perfect song to describe this post's real meaning.

Pages

Ok I've added two pages to the blog. Therefore, this post will be the last one where I put a music video. This one has been placed in the music videos page alr, as hav the previous two.

SCRAP ALL THAT. I have decided that although all the music videos that are posted will be placed in the music videos page, I will not stop posting vids on my posts. So continue to look forward to it!

P.S. There are some "secret" videos that will only be found on either the music vids page or one of the posts. Have fun finding all of them! Haha!!

X-Country run of epicness

Need I say more?

Oh, so you want me to explain why it was epic. Coz my house won 1st place for Sec 1, 2 and 4, that's why! Then the group run came coz it was for the President's Charity. Of coz, some ppl didnt run. At the start we were like racing my form teacher, it was so comical!:)

In any case, there was no lessons today so the next 4 days will be total holiday, ONCE I complete my homework...

Cantopop Lovers, here's a cantonese song for you.

I said... NO

NO. I refuse. Go think about the many instances when you can use this.

I will give you an example. When you are asked to do homework. The natural teen reaction："NO"

Simple.

Anyway. Anyway. ANYWAY. I said, ANYWAY. Today we had a lit class test. The task？ Write an essay on the question: "In your opinion, does Snowball make a good leader?" I mean, whut? How to write on this. Ok I knew how to write. Lucky I had many writing styles and one of them fitted this to a T. This was a argumentive essay. My first attempt at one too, so it was difficult at first.

In the end, I exceeded the word limit of 200-250(WHA? I was writing this amount of words in P1!!) and had abt 400(LOW) words.

That's it. I'm not saying a thing about it again.

I'm addicted to 光良's songs. Tis my fave one:)

Medicinal Annoyance

The one thing that is absolutely NOT fun abt being sick. Wait. Scrap that. Being sick ain't no fun in the first place. But anyway, as I was saying, it's the deluge of medicine that is prescribed to you.

Everyone has this kind of experience. Doctors give you so much medicine that you find it hard to know exactly whch one you are eating.T^T

Anyway, ANYWAY. Turns out tht the science test was TODAY. Scored 90% YAYS!

Project overdose. WARNING WARNING WARNING. BRAIN ABOUT TO OVERLOAD.

Keeping silent

Paiseh paiseh, nvr blog for very long. Nth to write abt.

Ok. I shld explain the title. i am ill. Sore throat, runny nose, blocked nose, you name it. So in an effort to protect my throat, I am trying to refrain from talking as much as possible.

At a time like this, an MC is seen as a lifesaver at times. Of course, this is the wrong mindset. In my case, I have many things to do tmr. I have two class tests and am working on a biology project. The tests i'm not too worried, as I can retake. However, we are supposed to do research on the school's eco-pond tmr... Looks like all i can do now is help out by searching for helpful info on the web...

Gotta sleep early tday, Ciao.

RIDICULOUSLY NUTS!!!

Pardon the caps on the title.

Ok, I know I haven't posted in a while. Saw no reason to. Even now I'm wondering why I'm posting.

Forget it. So, my tolerance level is dropping like a rock. Perhaps it is because I'm falling ill. Runny nose. Urgh...

... I realise this post is incoherent, but... I'm in no mood to post anymore...

Home Economics DISASTER!!!

Rats. I can feel it. The symptoms of EXTREME BOREDOM. Never felt like this before, I'm even more bored than that time at PSLE where I was sitting there like a dork trying to pass a whole hour's worth of time. This is getting serious.

Err, why am I even saying this. Ok, what did I want to post about? Oh ya, today's Home Economics session. We received a BANDANNA. I repeat, BANDANNA. Erk. We were supposed to wear it for all sessions. Let me tell you, we all looked ridiculous in them. ENOUGH SAID. Ok, so today's task was to make a chicken potato salad.

Instructions were simple. Chop the potatoes and boil them. Then, take the chicken and boil it. The teacher would then add the frozen mixed veg into the potato, and after that we would shred the chicken. This could be done with a fork or manually with hands. We chose hands as using the fork could create mess, which we witnessed at another group. When this was completed we were to collect salad leaves to act as the base for our salad. After this the teacher would add mayonaise and the salad would be ready for grading. We got 11.5/15, which I thought was quite OK even tho we could have done better. Then it was time to eat, we were allowed to put salt and pepper into it. However, Hao Jen added way too much salt and kind of ruined the salad. Bleah.

Well, it was raining by then, so Victor and I braved the rainstorm to get to the bus stop. Luckily we reached the bus stop before it really started to pour.

Official announcement: F.I.R songs ROCK!

Term 3 life

Lemme see... This is the 7th time I'm experiencing Term 3, I tink.

Things are different this time. First time there are new subjs introduced half-way thru the year. Interesting.

So anyway, I've alr taken 3 of the 4 new subjs in these 2 days. Interestingly, the teachers for Biology and History seem to have similar styles to my Chemistry and Chinese teachers, respectively.

Homec was rather nice. A good detour from the regular classroom style lessons. We were paired(AGAIN?!) for this lesson, and will be for the remaining lessons. No surprise there. My partner is Hao Jen, who's been my partner in Music, Art and Chinese lessons, hence we have good cooperation, which is a bonus.

We have a biology project which is due 5 weeks l8tr. We were split into groups of 4 of our choice. Benton and Zong Rong were not present at the time, and will choose their group when the time comes. My group is rather special. Each member has been group with every one of the other members at least once in previous projects, but never all 4 of us together, so this is a first. Let's hope we can work well together.

Nice. I wrote quite a long post compared to my previous "filler" posts. So Silas, I suppose this makes up for the wait? Jkjk, good luck for your exams and performances!

Sigh...

Sob. There's only 5 days left b4 the holidays are over, and I'm STILL not done wif my homework...

I am NOT talking abt that anymore.

Lately I can't think of ANYTHING to post... Sorry Silas, but you won't be reading any real posts for a while.

Hmm... Ok, let's see. Ok, my mind's a blank.

ARGH WHATEVER I'LL JUST WRITE STH!

Ok, so come term 3, the sec 1s will swap geography and ADT for History, Home Economics and Literature. Other than that, we will also change science topic. My class happens to be taking Bio. Hmm... The 4 subjs coming in will likely be my worst subjs... I hope I'm wrong.

Ok, that was a real paragraph of a post. The rest was a filler lol.

New design

Hi people.

I just changed the design of my blog using a nice lil function recently introduced by blogger, hope you like it!

Pls giv your comments in a comment on this post!:)

Oh ya sry I haven't posted for so long I completely forgot.

Running out of title ideas...

Self-explanatory title.

Ok so I've been reading blogs of my seniors, and all I see is them blogging abt how hey're suffering wif their tfu, coz they muz write lyrics for a song given only a theme and the tune. The language is the cause: CHINESE.

GOSH is my school filled wif ppl who hav nvr listened to chinese songs in their life?! OMG... I feel so out of place there!

Ok enough abt that. So I just realised why ppl criticise Justin Bieber's voice so much. It's REALLY high... Just heard his songs "That should be me" and "Baby" while at the shopping mall juz now... FREAKING HIGH-PITCHED!

Ok, maybe NOT so high, but you get the idea.

HCL oral, VERY SCREWED

OK before any one shouts "AIYAH, that's very normal!", let me tell you this. YOU'RE RIGHT!

OK that was very lame. Anyway, I was the last one to take the exam, so I decided to change my approach to it. OK I changed my 会话 style to a rather humorous one, I figured I'd end the examiner's torture of listening to solemn readings of thoughts, whatever. I always try to improve my style, OK more like adapt, but I tend to stick to humour, who cares???

Ok then in the afternoon I went for the class outing. I was LATE, but not the last. 7 ppl came after I reached the meeting place. Turns out 5 of them were waiting for those who were at KLP (Kallang Leisure Park) alr at Paya Lebar MRT station, lol.

The events planned for the outing were bowling first, then the movies. We played in groups. I was grouped wif Marcus, Hiroki, Joshua and Haziq. Gosh, Marcus, how many times hav I grouped wif him... Still, he's quite a nice person, good to have around. Enough about that. Ok so I left halfway thru the gathering, had sth on...

Nothing much to say now, except that I just finished watching the last episode of "Queen of no marriage". Very nice ending.

Gosh it's late now, ciao.

HIATUS AGAIN?!

Ok this is ridiculous. 2 hiatuses in 1 month?! Ok this time I've an excuse. I'm ill... Cough, phglem, runny & blocked nose, Sore throat. A lot huh? Not really...

Ok anyway, I went to get my report card on Thursday then went back, coz I was on MC. Not too bad. 11th in class. 3 A2s, 4 B3s.

I'm not talking about that today. I have another thing to talk about.


Yep just got Fish Leong's latest album even tho it was released last year...
Anyway, I'm gonna enjoy the songs now ciao.

Tri-fecta

Ok, what does my title mean? No idea myself.

Ok I got the tri part correct, since I hav a triple problem. B grades.

YES, exam marks. (Main Papers only)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
English - B4
Higher Chinese - B3
Mathematics - A1
Geography - A2
Visual Art - A2
Design and Technology - A2
Science - B3
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, bad huh? Gets worse.

Anyway, I got totally trashed by Marcus this time... He got SO MANY As!!! A freaking total of 5 As! He's GOOD! MSG currently beat me by 0.7, I've been completely beaten!!

Well, at least my MSG is above the average of my class...

And sorry for the 9 day hiatus...

The hell that is exams

Hell. This word may be strong, but it accurately describes exams.

Anyway, that is too serious a topic to elaborate on.

So, abt my exams. I seem to remember I had Science and Maths during these 2 days. Luckily for me, I can afford some careless mistakes in Maths now... Yay...

So, umm... I'd rather not talk abt the Science.

HCL Paper two, last exam, is tmr. After which the Sec 1s are free, at last.
Well, not my HCL class, coz we got HCL TFU remedial. WTH.

---

On a lighter note, My copy of Pokemon Soulsilver will finally be released to me tmr! Can't wait!

EXAMS

Exams can really screw a person's life.

It can cause MASSIVE DEPRESSION.(true case, forgot details)
Second possible adverse effect - Games, or any form of entertainment, are banned.(My case)

Ok, I know that's not a lot of causes, but it's enough to screw up a life totally.

For instance, today's paper. My english paper was today. It was SCREWED like crazy. My essay was on the topic "A Gift", and what did I write about? The gift of life. Umm... One mistake in writing that dangerous topic would mean a total screw up. So I hope I don't screw up.

Next, the paper two. I rushed the paper like nuts because I was worried that I would spend a lot of time on the summary part. WRONG. I finished the whole paper in 55min, and had to wait a whole 55min. GOSH. You have no idea how arduous the wait was. I resorted to decorating my stapler. Like, hell... I never felt so bored in my life.

Tomorrow will be the Chem-Physics paper. Not confident in the least, for chem takes up 64% of the paper. I'm as good as a chemistry failure. I need not elaborate further.

This post looks like my longest post to date. Heck, who cares? I marvel at the fact that I even bother to write blog posts that maybe only I read. But I know at least 1 of my friends reads this blog, and that keeps me motivated to keep posting, just in case he happens to stumble back onto this blog.

So let me extend my thanks to this person, Yi Jie.

Something non-school life...

Even tho no one has voiced this out yet, I can feel it. People are complaining that I post nothing but school life on this blog. HECK, DOES ANYONE EVEN READ THIS BLOG?!

Ok, so I post only school stuff, huh? Well, FINE. Something different for you blog critics. 别急，来了。



Yep, I just got a copy of Pokemon Soulsilver! Ok, whatever I got it yesterday. Yes, I know, it isn't taken by me. That's coz mine is locked up=X

I'll only get it on Friday...

I MAY post a picture of it wif the guidebooks, but I'll probably be too busy playing haha.

Geography. Any comments?

Initially, I didn't wanna blog 2day. But, there was sth inside of me which demanded a blog post out of me.

Ok, so today was not the most exciting day. Why not I begin with my geog exam? After all, that's what the title begs for.

Very well. The Geography exam. It was EASIER THAN THE MOCK TEST WTH. My teacher LIED, GAVE ME UNECESSARY WORRY! ARGH! Not that I blame her, at least she made me more prepared for the paper. Could do LORMS of a higher standard. Yay.

Ok, actually that's all worth mentioning. Unless of course you want me to talk about the chat I had wif my MBS frens via sms. I tell you, it was like spamming each other, coz we typed so fast!

And at least my earphones did not screw up today...

Well, gotta go. Whr's my pillow...

OH MY GOSH!

WHAT WHAT WHAT?! I took a 5 DAY BLOGGING HIATUS?! I'm terribly sorry! Was up to my neck in homework, couldnt use the com! Even now, I rushed my summary paper to blog.=X

Umm... Well, what can I say? Umm... Alright, let's start wif the geog mock test. Got it back this morning, and, well, I didnt do too well. The teacher said the real exam which is in two days is harder. Rats, I'd b happy to even PASS...

Well, ccp was pure slackerdom... Coz this was the second performance lesson and my grp alr performed. =P

Then mother tongue, got a decent mark for 作文 and 私函. On par wif Jonas. So it's all ok.

ADT was the best. I managed to save my mobile! And the teacher praised it! YAY! This may all work out after all!! =P

Then after school there was Physics make-up. BORING...

Oh ya. Due to the coming SA1, I will take a blogging hiatus till 14 May, I guess. That's when my exams end. It's 10 days counting this one. Twice the last hiatus. Wow.

Alright gotta revise for geog now... But too tired, maybe tmr... Pillow.... Zzz...

I QUIT!!

Ok, that's it! I RESIGN! I'm not gonna care anymore!

That is what you'd say if u totally hate ur job, I guess. BUT. This refers to my day. Some things just went wrong...

Ok actually three things. TRIPLE TROUBLE. WOW. Music, Math and Geog. The last one being a total disaster...

I got exactly 50% FOR Music test. VERY LOW. Math was crazy, dunno wat it was asking. Looked LORMs-like to me.

SPEAKING OF LORMS. The LORMs in the mock test were nuts. Only one of them had examples that could be given. WTH.

Hw... Hate them... CIAO...

Screwed. AGAIN.

What the hell is wrong with my life this week... It's COMPLETELY SCREWED...

Begin EVERYTHING at the start of the day.

I reached the classroom. I was talking to Benton and suddenly remembered I FORGOT TO BRING MY TIE FOR THE PHOTOSHOOT. That. Was the beginning of the end. Luckily I managed to borrow a tie from Jonas. Thx Jonas...

NEXT. Photoshoot. TOTALLY SCREWED UP my pose in the close-up informal shot. OH DRAT, huh?

Ok last. Science project. Due tmr, nth is done. Die liao.

End of story. I will leave and prepare for DD tmr.

Now... What?

HMPH. There are days where everything just goes your way. Today was most certainly NOT one of them.

Right, you will notice that when I'm emo or just plain annoyed, I absolutely refuse to use short forms. Well, whatever, I need to voice things out, and I cannot afford misconceptions.

Ok, to start off. Beginning of day. Geography lesson, nothing particularly exasperating, thank goodness. Next, CCP. TOTALLY SCREWED the performance. Ugh. Positioning ALL WRONG, FORGOT SOME LINES. UGH UGH UGH. Next, after recess. Higher Chinese. I found out I didn't bring my 词语手册, luckily Mdm Ding didn't find out. After that. ADT, Last lesson of the day. Mobile almost completely ruined. Surely gonna fail ADT.

Now, that would sum up my less than TOTALLY DISASTROUS day in a paragraph.

Last part, A HECK LOT OF HOMEWORK WAITING FOR ME.

Hmm... Is it my turn?

Crap. Wif Rhapsody over and all, I've run out of title ideas AGAIN!

Ok to hell wif that.

Yay. I'm confident of an A for physics. I'm in top 5 for all the class tests. Shld b able to ace exam, IF CHEM DOESN'T MESS THINGS UP FOR ME.

Ok, so today had science ICAS. Very tough. To a gamble on LOTS of questions. =X

Lots of hw to do. Adios...

BOOYAH!

As promised, here's a post. An UN-emo post.

BOOYAH! Today was a BLAST! SO FUN! First Rhapsody down, can't WAIT for the next one!

So anyway, actually we screwed a lot on a certain part. Ok, I screwed. Whatever, at least I admitted it. I sang 2 WHOLE SECONDS longer than I was supposed to!

Dennis said he messed up the sun ray. Didn't notice the sun ray was a mess.

And in a twist, Jack and I stepped on Andre's foot. THRICE. And he was BAREFOOT. Sry man!

After the concert ended, the seniors got together and started singing the school song and chanting the school cheers, much to the annoyance of the workers. Ms Lau told them off. Haha.

I wonder though, WHERE was Mdm Ding?

Day of reckoning...

Today's the day. The day where all our hard work finally pays off.

"We struggled through the darkest storms we thought we couldn't tame..."

We managed to protect Rhapsody IX from being cancelled. That was the point where we all worked together to prove that we were something more.

Today we prove to the world that we are that and more. Today, we begin the year. Today, the sec 4s step down. Today. Today. It all happens TODAY.

所谓的台上三分钟，台下十年功。We have practised for 5 months now, let everything go smoothly. But... WE'RE TWO SEC 4s DOWN! OMG, their last performance and they cant come! FAINT. Why is fate always playing tricks on ppl?!

Will leave more emoness for tonight, or tomorrow if I'm too tired. Wish me luck!(:

Rhapsody IX~

Time for the song repertoire!

1. Resonemus Laudibus
2. Ave Maria
3. Orde-e
4. Pasigin
5. Fair Phyllis I saw
6. O Occhi Manza Mia
7. Mundi Renovatio
8. La Peregrinacion
9. VJC Choir

Ok, so it all starts tomorrow. Can't wait!
Ikkimasho, VS Choir! We will do this the only way WE can!

BOOMZ. 1...

Faint. A Ris Low inspired title. Whatever.

Ok, you ppl who hav nth better to do on Saturday morning(Like ME) must be wondering why I'm posting when there is PRACTICALLY NTH FOR ME TO TALK ABT since there ain't no choir prac 2day.

You're not? FINE. NAVIGATE AWAY THIS INSTANT.

For those defiant ppl who chose to stay on this page, congratulations. You were tricked. Haha.

Jkjk. I seriously have nth 2 sae. I'm leaving the real BOOMZ post for tmr. Maybe I'll post the song repertoire tmr. For now, it will be kept a secret.

Now, time to complete my hw. I was joking yesterday. I threw my hw to one side=X

Spare me... 2...

Ugh... 2 days...

Crap. I have that feeling again. The feeling of a COLD. OF ALL TIMES!

Don't even ask me what happened in class today, coz nothing particularly exciting happened. In fact. the most exciting thing was that Hao Jen poured water all over my hand during Physics Practical. Not exciting in the least, I know.

2 days from now, the choir will hold Rhapsody IX. Then afterwards, the Sec 4s will step down:( Sob.. Will miss them..

Right, time to work on my homework. Ciao.

Continue the countdown! 4...

Dear readers, pls do NOT pester me abt my lack of satisfactory titles. I will not entertain those complaints.

Anyway, today was BORING. Save for AD class... Got surrounded by a cyclone of acryllic dust, thankfully I was wearing a mask. So sorry to disappoint you, my enemies(should I even have any).

"It's too late..." - Apologise by Timbaland

It's too late to back out now. It's too late. Time to step into Rhapsody IX with my head held high.

Ikkimasho, my CCA mates. Makenai! Daijobu!

Final countdown. 5...

Like I said before, I'm running out of witty titles, so I'll settle for just any title.

So I failed half my NAPFA test, no surprise.

And choir prac came... And selection for YOG performance began... (jkjk it was a trick played by my SL)

And tomorrow I hav dental check-up. Heard the dentist is a real terror. Brr...

Ok gotta go do hw. Ciao

6 下美好的回忆

Another lol title. This time using pun. 6 sounds like the chinese character 留 which means leave. Again sth to do wif Rhapsody...

6 days... 6 nerve-racking days... When that curtain goes up, the sec 1 cohort's life in VS Choir will truly begin. The sec 2 cohort had SYF to start their career in VS, we have Rhapsody IX. Which is better? DO NOT ANSWER!

Sigh... Tmr got NAPFA test.. I'm TOTALLY UNPREPARED!!

Then stay back for Choir prac... I'll b in no mood...

Argh I feel giddy... CIAO.

Lucky number 8

LOL crazy title I know..

MUSIC PLEASE! It's... 8 days to Rhapsody IX! Hence the title.

I finally memorised 70% of Pasigin! Champange!

Ok, so today was rather boring.. NOW I need to sell 2 more tickets.. Like, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE!!

ARGH ARGH ARGH I have nth to write lately... Ciao

COLLAPSE!

Faint. I ran out of titles.

But I do feel like fainting. 10 days to Rhapsody IX!

ARGH!!! I still haven't memorised Pasigin. I AM DOOMED

Oh yea, I FAILED MY MATH TEST! UGH!

Nth else to write 2day. Ciao

Time for songs!

NONONO! I dun mean choir songs! I'm NOT THAT addicted! I mean pokemon jap theme songs!

My current faves :
1.I Won't Lose! ~May's Theme~/私、負けない！ 〜ハルカのテーマ〜/Watashi, Makenai! ~Haruka no Tēma~
2.By Your Side ~Dawn's Theme~/君のそばで 〜ヒカリのテーマ〜/Kimi no Soba de ~Hikari no Thema~)
3.Message of the Wind/風のメッセージ/Kaze no messēji
4.Together/いっしょに /Issho ni

These rock! I cant find nicer ones! You have to go listen to them!

YAY. Countdown... BEGIN!

When I say countdown, I mean countdown to Rhapsody IX. Haha.. 12 days..

Choir pracs are turning more intense wif all those FULL REHEARSALS. As in run thru the entire performance in one go. And jus today, the choreo for one song was changed.. They sure luv last-minute changes..

So anyway. There wasn't 2.4 re-test.. Ended up playing soccer, not a fave of mine. Then nearly failed physics test.. 7/12, can you believe it?!

So, um.. I was going home after prac, chatting wif my fren, of cos. Then when I alighted, I saw Marcus! Goodness, and I was jus talking abt him wif Adam! Talk about speaking of the devil!

That's all for today. Ciao.

Running out of time!

Need I explain the title?

Ok. So why am I running out of time? Simple. I am staying back in sch almost everyday now. Only free days are Wednesday and Friday... And this wednesday I hav Higher Chi CA... Siaoz... How to revise..

Then arh, Wednesday also got ccp presentation rehearsal. Then, tmr got choir prac and 2.4 re-test. I'm a goner. Sec 1 onli, and alr up to my neck in stuff. Imagine wat my seniors are going thru... But Daijobu! 私、負けない!

Ok, gtg. Muz start preparing 4 the higher chi test and REHEARSALS.. Ciao. I'll post again tmr, I guess.

P.S. Why in the world am I getting an urge to play concentration? Ugh..

私、負けない!

Ok, most of you guys won't noe wat the title means, since it was put in Kanji. It means "Watashi, Makenai!" in Romaji or "I won't lose!" in English.

So anyway, 私、負けない! is an ending theme of the Pokemon anime. It is ending 19, I think. So anyway, it's ハルカの(Haruka no/May's)テーマ(Thema/Theme).

So, 私、負けない！ 〜ハルカのテーマ〜 is one of my favourite themes songs of the anime. As is May my fave character. Oh ya, pardon the excessive use of Kanji, I can't help it.

So... Um.. I'm gonna go listen to it again. If u wanna listen to it, go to youtube and search "Pokemon May/Haruka Theme Full ~I won't lose (Watashi Makenai!)".

Cya next post. It'll probably be on Tuesday, but you nvr noe, I may post earlier...

Bridge post

Hi! Tis a bridge post from my other blog. I'll be posting on this blog frm now on. So... Um.. I'll be posting again in the near future. Cya!
