Okay considering all the dates and stuff, i come TO MY OWN conclusion that the tentative date for the class gathering is 3rd january. Cos, thats when everyone is back, from their overseas trips, from their exams, from their duties from serving the nation.

How abt it?!

And hell yeah, i thought this song sounds familiar. so catchy so addictive!

You have heard atomic kitten, now hear kardinal offishall and keri hilson! Ignore the afterlude, its so random.

The time to parteh beckons!

HEEDING EUGENE's call, before i head straight back to camp for my weekly loneliness,

We know, I know, You know, perhaps daryl lim knows, that WE ALL WANT A CLASS GATHERING! But alas, everyone is busy with their exams, busy packing their luggage, for the migratory birds, busy acting as grasshoppers for the guys and all sorts. BUT WE ALL KNOW, YOU KNOW, perhaps ms K knows, THAT WE WANT A CLASS GATHERING!

SO! On behalf of the busy, lazy people whom is waiting for somone to open his/her mouth, I AM HERE! =) people please indicate how long you wld be back, from when to when, for the migratory birds, and when ur exams are over and your chilling period starts, for the muggers in the unis, and of course, when the green uniforms get to wear civilian attire. Please do inform those stray sheep whom have forsaken these bitchy grounds.

C'mon PEOPLE! Can u feel it coming already?!

I guess I just got sick of seeing Fergie's face everytime I came to our class blog. No disrespect Boon, she's complete hot stuff no question.
Don't know what I am blogging about. Just a random post. Missing everyone I guess. I hate the fact that here in University I don't have a fixed class, I don't have people that I see ALL the time and can get used to them. (Although it does mean that I get to see a lot more cute Aussie boys, BUT WHAT IS THE USE OF JUST LOOKING?!?!) And I hate the fact that we don't have hot uniforms to wear. I mean, the girls in our class looked like rockstars in SA uniform! Now I have to pick something to wear everyday. EWWWWWWW
So I was just wondering how everyone was doing. Clarissa and I only meet like once every 2 weeks or once a week. And we live like less than 5mins away from each other (it always feels longer cos when it's my turn to walk over it always seems to be the coldest day ever). She has lots of food in her room, expect a slightly larger version of her returning home. HAHAHAHA.
Right, I have an essay due at 5pm and Í'm just procrastinating. This is me saying HI! BYE! and i miss you all. (and also secretly hoping that I will be the one starting some kind of revival here!!)
Lots of lovvvveee from down under,
XOXO
your ever faithful 1/2 ang moh

2008-07-25T07:33:00.000-07:00

2008-03-18T09:26:00.000-07:00

living to the my name of cluboonxzs.

Anyway, i was just thinking, that this coming thurs/2 days later is such a great day to hit the club like MOS etc,

WHY?!

Cos the next day is a public holiday! So we got no worries of clubbing cos next day got work or what, except those hu need to be devoted to our lord on friday might not make it.

HOWEVER, if it meant clubbing on the eve of a public holiday, it would mean AVAILABLE NIGHT RIDER SERVICE after the club. Very important since cabbing sucks our blood.

AND ON MOS, THURS NITE what do they play at the main arena?

R & B!

So people, we better club this thurs. Just a suggestion. I need to hit it before i get clubbed by my sergeant soon.

2008-03-10T09:06:00.000-07:00

Hey guys!

Ok I think this is like the first time I'm posting here. Anyway as an encouragement to everyone here, whether we did well or not for our A Level results, it truly doesn't matter very much later on in life. It doesn't matter what university you've gone to, unless it's like Yale or something. Like Zihui said, let's learn from it and just keep going, and work harder in the future.

I'm working in Temasek Poly's Human Resource department now, and I see people's resumes and CVs and results all the time, and some don't do that well for O Levels or A Levels, but it's okay, because later on whether in poly or uni, it's obvious that they've learnt the value of diligence because their transcripts show much better results. I believe each one of us really has the power within us to achieve what we want, whatever it is, as long as we truly desire and work towards it. Don't be discouraged by what has happened (or be complacent) because we're still young, and we have so much more to live for and to look forward to.

I love you all, and hope to see all of you very soon!

2008-03-09T19:37:00.000-07:00

Hello my fellow A2ers.

before u realise, the judgement day came and left and now its time to make the decision of a life time that will probably determine our future.

To those who didnt do as well as expected,it dosent mean its the end of the road,or that ur future's going downwards.

Because honestly, does it matter so much if u cant get to the 3 unis Biz sch it means u cant have a biz related career? the world is flexible. Degrees r just a piece of pp.By the end of the day it all depends on how u carry urself off, how u prove to others ur capability. Any cert will allow u to do anything u want as long as u work for it.

Does it matter that there's only schs like SIM left for u? When its supposedly the dumping grd for students who didnt do well?Its tim,e to shake off that mindset i used to share too.
Poly students who arent the top 10% of their cohort (which seriously isnt easy) r there too, and that dosent mean they r inferior to u. They had 3 yrs in poly while u had 2 yrs of FUN in jc. shldnt u be thankful for that?

Just wanna let you guys know, whereever ure going, be it to overseas , private or local unis.just work really hard n it'll pay off (yea, im a true blue eg).

for those who did well, do not be complacent
while for those who did badly, Do not let it be another mistake which u'll forget quickly, but let it b a scar for life, which will act as a reminder each time u lose ur motivation or drive.

good luck to ur future endeavours!

XOXO,
DIVA (:

Haha this is for those who are bored at work/home/nothing to do, here's an episode of Super Junior Full House (with English subtitles), their reality TV show where two girls, Anya and Eva, went to one half of the band's house for a homestay. In this episode they went to Korea's English Village. Super Junior's learning English btw, so they're trying to use it at the Village. WATCH WATCH! Damnnnnn funny. Look out for Heechul the guy in white shirt with pink sleeves esp at the end of part 2, he's SUPER FUNNY there. Haha.

EH WHO WANTS TO CLUB AT MOS THIS THURSDAY?

Really good. Happy hour till 9pm so come early! Except for Mondays, Happy Hour all night long. Drinks will be about $3 cheaper for glasses while jugs about $8 cheaper. Got nice new drink- Barcadi Apple + (Cranberry/Soda/Sprite will be damn nice) at $10 per glass, that's my recommendation. Regina's working there as well, and so will Jade and her friend Cheryl (: SO COME SUPPORT US!

Maybe Sel could sell to anyone of you for a lower price. Haha. It'd be really great if more people were to join us at prom. You'd get to see our class guys turn into heartthrobs! Dont laugh! I'm sure many would like to see them in tuxedos. Haha.

PARTAY!

2007-11-27T08:47:00.000-08:00

Impending DOOM

2007-10-29T06:45:00.000-07:00

On the other hand, it could be seen as the 'doom' retreating. It'll be over soon enough!! HANG ON TIGHT PEOPLE!!

2007-10-21T19:56:00.000-07:00

it's conducive! and fun! coz i use the ma jong table to do huge mindmaps..

rayne and ashlynn wanna help u guys! no matter how much some of u apparantly hate them... u suck...

rayne and ashy's study tips~~:
when u get tired, get the little people to help...

and when taking a break, snack on healthy food...

sleep is essential...make sure you get enough..

eat well!!! you need the energy..

go outdoors for awhile even if there is just no time..
u could cook yourself til your (brain) juices run out if you stay too long in that pressure cooker environment...(ie. KFC fried chicken)
looking at greenery is good for your eyesight too...

and remember to keep incontact with friends least you end up a friendless loser after the exams..

and that's all...~
good luck!!!

damn i am bored....

2007-10-20T07:40:00.000-07:00

Ahhhh! This is the Chinese version of Bet On It by this Chinese singer called Show. I think Zac Efron's version is better though..

JIAYOU OKAY GUYS!

2007-10-11T05:54:00.000-07:00

I am so lohsoh -.-" Haha sorry for spamming da tagboard again! I just wna say that I totally agree with Zihui that today isnt a goodbye but more like da end of lecs and tuts in which we travel to the different LTs and classrooms as a class. Haha. Sounds better? I mean, we'll still be keeping in touch, studying together, coming back for mocks and sitting the A's tgt as a class right? (: AND MORE CLASS OUTINGS? (: As quoted by Miss Seow, she thinks that we had

"indeed established for (ourselves) a name - a very united, close-knitted class with an awesome class spirit and support for each other".

(: I'd like to add on by exemplifying how much our class had supported each other - and that is WE ARE NOT SELFISH WITH NOTES! Omg I gotta say that I love you guys for this. I've heard from other schools and IN SAJC ITSELF that students do not wish to share their tutorial answers as well as da 'valuable' notes that they have obtained from other schools or wherever. I guess we're talking about competitive people here. But come on. All of us are definitely not competing for the same course in the same Uni right? Dont they wanna see their friends excel as well? And esp in the so-called top 5 JCs where would you guys be going anyway? OVERSEAS. So what is da selfishness for? To prove that youre da smartest? What, like, 'hohoho Ive got great notes I shall mug them in my closet tonight and burn them before anybody else sees them'? PLEASE KIASEES AND KAISUS.

So I'd like to say that I AM VERY VERY APPRECIATIVE to our dear VERYVERY HARDWORKING SUBJECT REPS like Zhaoting who always give a quick shoutout to da class to ask if we all want the readings as recommended by da Geog teachers and promptly photocopy for da whole class. And also when she got some Geog studyguide notes from a friend from another JC she readily offered to help me photocopy when I was like, "whoa, this is so organized!". Including Luke and Weiling who had really good Econs notes from another JC. And etcetc I'm sure the rest of you guys have encounters like this.

On the topic of Reps, I'd really like to give a holler to THE CLASS COMMITTEE comprising of our dear always-and-forever-dependable-and-supportive Assistant Class Rep Michelle and our seriously-super-duper-hardworking Treasurers Mindy and Shirlyn (who undertook one of the hardest jobs EVER in a committee). Without them I dunno how the administrative stuff can be so efficiently administered. Haha okay I dunno how to word that properly. AND I am forever-grateful TO THE REST OF THE CLASS for being so cooperative and supportive of us (: SERIOUSLY! Haha. Esp when the loansharks gotta collect the usual $5/$4 etc from everyone and I am so amazed and so grateful that there are actually NO MOANS! Haha okay maybe a few here and there or even inside of you. I am guilty of that. But the bottomline is you guys make their jobs that much easier and you guys were so understanding (: So on behalf of the ExCo of The Dimsum Palace, WE THANK YOU! *bows* Hahaha.

Okay here's some random shoutouts to everyone else (YOU ALL ARENT LEFT OUT OKAY! (: )

- Luke, our ever-so-efficient Delivery Boy (with his love for cycling) who always buys cake for us for birthday celebrations. Without him how to have birthdays?!?! Hahaha.

- Eugene, our so-very-patient Electrician who's just tall enough to pull down that projector screen for teachers, tries his best to fix all technological faults as well as cleaning the whiteboards andalsodoingkrystalsbiddingmostofthetime(x (but I dont understand why he is always at loggerheads with Deb Ng! Okay guess what I went to check out their horoscopes. No wonder theyre not compatible. LOL. Go to this link for their Horoscope Compatibility. Lol!)

- Boon, our resident Ah Beng/Lian who can actually provide really wise words as well as entertain us so very often (refer to the YouTube video of him singing Calcutta (x )

- Selvan who was (and ironically is still) our loyal DimSum Ambassador (: Yes he still keeps close ties with the Palace! What a great man he is.

- Krystal, our resident w(h)iner, who's all taitai with all the wine and whines. Anybody can do her bidding one with that powerful whine of hers. Haha! I've seen it work on Eugene and Boon lotsa times k. LOL. She's also able to whine until the whole class listens to her. That's why I'm so grateful for her for that added effect of things that I say. Haha. But I'm sure we all love her (:

- Deborah Ng, our Miss Sotong! I dont think she's blur la. Haha. It's her hearing sometimes! But it makes her that funny xD Our Miss Sotong had swam her way towards other shores to help out in OCIP, we're so proud of her to spread the love of our DimSum Palace and beyond :D

- Jade, our (Im)Moral Rep (x Wow she rocks can. She's in constant communication with Miss K which most people would spend their whole life in SA avoiding any kind of contact with. Lol. (On a sidenote after today I'm sure we Arts Fac see Miss K differently now (: ). Haha oh yes she's our hot angmoh-cham-chinese as well (yeah I'm doing advertisement haha!), who's in Rugby! Hot and fit. What more can you ask for? Lols.

- Deborah Chia, our Darth Vader! Omg haha. What can I say about her. She's just that PHWOAR. Only person who made Shamim jealous cos she was that way cooler as DV, in a sari. Lols! Love her confidence. Totally admire her having this gungho personality.

- ZiHui, our brainy Economist! But wait! She has the brawns as well! (Diva mah, right. Lols.) Haha arent we proud of her! Poor thing, work so hard til she had some problems with her eye. Do take care, girl!

- Zhaoting, our EMO (ahem it stands for Earthquake Management Officer) cum LaLa Girl! She's like a ray of sunshine to our class who's ever-cheery and very friendly. She never fails to give that support or a hug to anybody who needs it in class. We love you, Zhao! (:

- WenJin, our Head of LaLa Girls! This tall and leggy girl can be a cheerleader lor. Lols. She's just that friendly and has this really open personality that you will immediately click with once you start talking to her (:

- WeiLing, our Stats Officer and LaLa Girl! Okay *takes a deep breath and hopes that WeiLing will not complain to me after I post this* she's definitely a very efficient Math Rep who got this cute personality which is associated with Hello Kitty and the colour pink. Lol. Plus her mum is reallyreally cool! She's got a blog called hotmama or sth like that. Cool or what?

- SiYing, our Assistant Head of LaLa Girls whom I associate someone who speaks her mind to get her rights. Lol. Respect to this girl! One of the only people I know with the biggest eyes.

- ShuFen, our Lumberjack (cos she's from Cedar -.-"). No la, she helps us out lots cos she needs to brave the forests to chop wood for us to cook our delicious dimsums. Lol just kidding! Let's rename her. She's our resident artist (: She's my Angel for Moral Ed and I gotta tell ya, she's damnnn artistic (she drew a portrait of me) with a really nice handwriting! Shouldve been our Secretary. Lol.

- Clarissa, our Food Critic! Erm I cant rmb why she is one (enlighten me?) Maybe cos her English is really good? She speaks damn well! She ah. Has this super-distinctive laugh which I recognise ever since I entered this class in J1. Lol. And she is so expressive!

-Mumtaz, our Head Bitch! Gosh only recently I know why she is one. Lol. I dunno why, I dont see her as a vulgaric person! Lol guess I'm slow. I was super appalled when she started.. Yeah. Haha. Other than that she is super-brainy as well, can be one of our academic role models in class :D

- YingJie! Our Poet (Lit Rep)! Haha another one who gotta keep in constant contact with Miss K! She truly has this funky style- her tail-plait! Haha. And she's da only one I know who brings her dolls to school and make them seem like real people, only smaller in size. Lol.

- Mathani, our hot Indian whom we fondly call Mat (ironic but whattheheck it's racial harmony! Okay I am crappin :P)! This girl is scandalous. She was 'attached' to both Boon and Selvan. Tsktsk! Lol! She's definitely a really fun person to hang out with as well!

- Cheryl Ng, one of our Dancing Queens of The DimSum Palace! Wow arent we proud of her during Rapture last year! Too bad she quit dance, but to focus on her studies, gotta give her respect. Definitely someone the Palace should emulate right?

- Rachel Ong, also our Dancing Queen/Cheerleader! Poor thing, her legs are known as carrots now. Lol. Nevermind! At least theyve got talent! (:

- Cherell, our Dancing Queen Number Three/Cheerleading Vice-Captain! (Aye, the 3 Dancing Queens can form The Dynamites from Hairspray!) Definitely one with maneeeee talents as well (:

- Lastly, our dear Rachel !Ho our dearly-missed PRO. She's really the epitome of the term Artsy-Fartsy. We definitely miss her as our PRO!

Wow I think I exhausted everybody already :D See, this class has many special characters which makes this DimSum Palace the bestest class everrrrrr :D

In da meantime, all the very best for your studies, guys! Persevere on! We've like, 5-6 weeks more till the end of A's? So during this short period of time just give it ALL THAT YOUVE GOT! The good results at the end of it will be worth every minute that you spend over work and all your efforts (:

UP AND ON, A2!

PS Please post the Farewell photos at the Shutterfly account when youre free to upload them okay? Thanks! :D

PPS Yeah I am damn lohsoh as you can see from the length of my post -.-"

2007-10-11T04:04:00.000-07:00

ahh jade, those pics really did gimme a quick flashback of the pretty memories ive had for the last 2 yrs (or less).
BUT,im so not emo-ing.
1stly coz it isnt the right time yet.
2ndly coz ive got more stuff to emo abt (IE, A LEVELS COMING)
3rdly and most imptly, i can foresee in yrs to come we'll still be meeting up in cliques or even as a class (piecing our jigsaws..)

so yes, i dun really consider today a farewell or a parting ceremony.
bcoz i still wanna meet u guys and keep the frenships ive made in SA.
our class seriously been wonderful and close knitted.
bcoz when i speak to my frens from other schs,they have probs like super male chauvinistic guys,or competitive and fake frens.as far as i know none of these exist.
so YAY. I LOVE U GUYS.

promise t write an individual testi when As is over.harhar.

STUDY HARD YEA?!?!?! at this pt of time, just do ur best, and trust the lord tt he'll do the rest!:)

xoxo,
DIVA aka wild cat aka nerd. (ok wadeva)

2007-10-11T00:38:00.000-07:00

Well instead of putting up farewell photos I've decided to put up old ones. Fine it's partially because I don't have any YET!! Send me send me!!

This song is for you 06A2, the people I love.

Thanks for making this misfit fit.

Where has the time gone?

It seems to fly so fast

One moment you're having fun, the next its come to pass

Days turn into yesteryear, old friends find their own way

Until the moment you leave

I wish that you would stay

So here's to you, all our friends, surely we will meet again

Don't stay away too long this time

We'll raise a glass, maybe two

And we'll be thinking of you

Until our paths cross again

Maybe next time

Let's laugh at the memories, and talk all afternoon

Let's remember the moments that leave us all too soon

We'll smile at the pictures still lingering in our minds

When you´re reminiscing, then all you need is time...

Tracing faded photographs, a scrapbooks lonely charm

Pressed flowers and dreams we had, our fingerprint on time

The 1st moment we ever met, when your eyes met mine

I remember the summers of Dandelion Wine...

Hehe...

For the very stressed...

2007-09-21T05:01:00.000-07:00

Hey class.

I know everyone is feeling down and down after getting back all the results.
Right now, i just want to give a few words of advice and encouragement man.
Even though i am in no position to say anything becos my results are shitty too and sorts.
But i hope at least you would lend me a listening ear.

I am speaking in general and not targetted towards any individuals.
I am sorry for any anger or disappointment that might arise due to my message.

Firstly,

Practise DO Not make perfect.
Correction Do.
Practise only makes Permanent.

So if the studying methods of some of us are not working well, perhaps its time to really change the way we study. I think asking questions is very important. Especially when we need help we can always approach eugene, I am sure he wld be most willing to help, at least he never rejected my requests b4.

I think its wrong to label him as a chao mugger. Some of us might be wondering why we put in the same amount of work and yet eugene is able to score better than us. But the cruel fact is, if u have realised, eugene takes a day only to understand concepts in which others take a week to understand.
Simply speaking, besides his intelligence, he studies smart as well. Therefore people like us have no choice but to put in extra effort and start studying smart either.

I know he doesnt mug as hard as we think. Not that i am discrediting his work, but we all have to agree with me.

Otherwise whatever HARD work is futile becos its not being efficiently used.
Now do not take this as NOT STUDYING HARD. I think at this conjecture we all have to study doubly hard, if better 10 times harder.

Time is running fast away, even as i blog this post.

Secondly,

I am sure many are contemplating of just skipping the rest of the school term to just work hard for your A levels. I dont fault your way of thinking, if u think u can work better at home. But i am sure many of us did that before the prelims, with attendance so drastically low in some days. The fact is our prelim results didnt reflect that it works for us. As i have mentioned earlier, i believe strongly that there's a problem in our studying methods among the class.

The truth is, these few weeks indeed as mentioned by mr leong today ( for those whom attended school ) , can be VERY VERY productive, or just wasted. Becos the syllabus has been finished, we are actually very free to throw any questions at our teachers during every tutorial lesson and clear our doubts. Dont lie to yourself that the syllabus has been finished and therefore sch is just a waste of time.

Like what my mom always say to me when i try to pont school.

"Its your own problem if you want to skip school. Later the teachers say anything important and then u just lose out thats all."

Looking at our prelim results, i conclude that most of our independent learning at home, at own time own target doesnt work. Its time to wake up from this deluded self-belief.

Besides, we always are saying we have a great class. Its just 2 weeks before we finally depart with our wonderful classmates. Dont you want to spend more time together since many arent going prom already?

Thirdly,

Have faith in our teachers. We can see that they are all working hard towards our Alevels. No teacher is willing to see their own students score below an A for Alevels. But we must show our faith in them by frequently asking them questions and consultations. And right now for geog is just spamming essay outlines and more essay outlines.

Okay i think i am done with some reflections and watever unbiased opinions i hoped i have made.

Lastly.

It is ur Attitude towards Life that determines Life's Attitude towards you.

Work hard guys, and we will smile victoriously during february next year.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WEILING!:P

talking about emo kids.

2007-04-05T12:08:00.000-07:00

It was Emo Day on the 5th of April, 2007.

We talked about emo kids during Civics and how we could help them.

But alas!

Look at us.

We were the emo kids instead.

(If we were to explain this mathematically, notice that 06A02 is a subset of emo kids?

Yes, we are them!)

I'm sure we can help ourselves, emo kids around the world!

(Haha an emo mugging pic of Deborah and Cheryl, followed by another one showing how inquisitive and hardworking they are and also representative of what we should be (: )

There's no need for the Paul Twohill-esque hair to 'hide our tortured souls' (as quoted from our CT Mr Lim) and being all emo and sad and down!

It's just Block Test ONE.

We still have BT TWO.

We still have Prelims.

And we have the finals - the A's.

So the fight aint over yet, my comrades!

Yes, we shall prepare for glory (:

Thanks for the Awfully Chocolate cakes, Luke the delivery boy!

You do The Dimsum Palace proud (:

Happy belated to the March babes and happy birthday in advance to the April babes! (: (:

oh, so it started...

2007-03-24T01:37:00.000-07:00

why's the class blog so dead? and the template sucks haha.

snl digital sketch. it's rather explicit just to warn you first. and if you don't get it, it's a sketch that's parodying raunchy r&b music videos from the early '90s. think boyz2men and i'll make love to you. hahahaha.

sorry couldn't help it.

2007-03-15T08:58:00.000-07:00

just some pictures to entertain. in the midst of everyone preparing for block test 1, i present you, yesterday once more. i finally upgraded to the new google blogger. whatever. so now i can post on the class blog again (:

i'm so tired. goodnight.

BT1.

2007-03-12T20:20:00.000-07:00

hi guys study hard for BT1 ok!!! we've had such a great year so far, don't let something stupid like exams ruin it! :D

anyway, when things like 'oblique' tags us, jsut ignore them. by replying them and defending ourselves, we're just giving them the attention they're seeking and that makes them happy.

love you guys to the max!

you know. i've always said i love our class.
but today really reminded me why i love the class.
the sticking together as a class, people baking for the class(i have a sorethroat now), buying presents for people, screaming together.
even though seeing siying and weiling receiving a heck load of balloons was a rather sad moment, but heck celebrating with the class is better than anything else!
i almost cried today. HAHAHA wth. i feel gay, but really the class spirit was there and i really felt the love.

I LOVE YOU A2. thanks for the laughter, the joy, the love, the friendship
this is why we're the best class on earth <3

yeah zen CHRISTMAS IS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This year's Christmas period has been UBER fun so far. On Friday my church put up a musical and it rocked!! No hiccups or anything!! I was playing the bimbo cousin and had to do embarrassing stuff so I didn't invite ANYONE even though some of my secondary school friends came because the other people invited them. Then after that I went to a party and didn't get back till 230am? And for those of you who know me well, I CANNOT CANNOT function without my sleep. With added alcohol I was so close to dropping onto the floor and sleeping. One of my friends got drunk and was puking. A first for me-to have a really drunk friend, so I had to take care of her.
On Saturday I had another party, NO ALCOHOL, I've not become some heavy-weight drinker or anything. It was at my youth leader's house. He had all the good stuff- pizza, chocolates, soft drinks, really nice sausages, mac&cheese. YUMMY. I've put on sooooooooooo much weight la. when you see me in school and I look fat please try to be nice about it. haha
Today we had service in church followed by pot-luck lunch. My gosh the tiramisu was HEAVENLY!!! eh zihui where's mr peh's tiramisu man?!?! heh. Soon I'm heading off to my Auntie's house for our annual Christmas eve dinner. Then one of my church members has invited me to his house too. So busy!!Have I mentioned that I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!
Well that's what's been going on so far. I hope everyone is doing fine. See you all really really soon!! Do you're homework people!! ESPECIALLY CHERELL SOON! ahah

YO YO YO YO YO!

2006-12-23T08:23:00.000-08:00

HELLOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

after like a life time of absence from thing dang place i am back baby! like the terminator! well don't really know what to say. cept that this blog is dead town. and i am partly responsible.... sorry man haha. but seriously i don't know html??? and sorry i didn't plan any like outings and stuff in the end. thanks selvan for offering, even though the chalet couldn't happen. we all wish your family the best and we're praying!

soooo christmas christmas christmas! what do i think of when i think christmas? well basically all the standard stuff that you never get in singapore. hahahaha like fireplaces, homemade cookies in the shape of christmas trees with icing and sprinkles on the top (that it seems only american super mums can produce... i've only ever had one in my life... baked by some lady in my church yeaaaars ago.), snow and loghouses, fairy lights and christmas trees, sweet jazzy christmas tunes. and this exuberant warmth all around! but it's okay that we only see that in movies. cause i'm blessed enough to even be able to celebrate christmas, the singaporean way! it's like chinese new year! without chinese! hahaha i'm just happy to get to spend a dinner with my relatives.

anyway that's christmas to me, that picture up there, it's disney's magic kingdom in orlando last year when i visited. it's not a very clear picture but it's the only one i've found so far haha. and here's my cheesy cliched parting statement! whatever it is, it's not where or how you celebrate christmas, but who you celebrate it with. HAH. that was good wasn't it?

i love you!

2006-12-22T06:20:00.000-08:00

Hi classmateys!

I swear I've been trying my very best contacting Ms K about the journals.
I've SMSed & called her close to 10 times already.
Or is it already 10 times.
Haha cant remember.
All I know is that it's a LOT of times.
The last time she called she said that she'd email the class on what to write in your journal entries.
So please, everyone, check your emails regularly these few days yeah!
If she doesnt email us after Boxing Day or sth, I'll continue to pester her or sth.
If she still doesnt give us the details, it's not our fault okay!
So no worries on the journals (:

Christmas is coming!
Jade's favourite time of the year (:
I remember her cooing about the Christmas mood, the atmosphere, the presents, etc etc in the Geog room like, 5 months before December?!
Haha.
IT'S FINALLY COMING, JADE, & EVERYONE ELSE WHO'S EXCITED & CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS!!! (((:
Cant wait for the pressies right!
Haha.
It's the joy of giving as well ah, dont forget!
*HINT HINT*
Haha okay I'm just kidding.
I dont celebrate Christmas with my family cos we're Buddhists.
Except maybe with friends when they have Christmas parties & such.

What's the one thing you love about Christmas, some of you MIAs?!
Say it here!!!
Revive this blog at the same time!!!
Post pictures of that thing (object/person/mood/atmosphere/whatever) that you love during Christmas time plus an explanation or caption or whatever you like!
Here's mine!

STARBUCKS!
Lovely stuff man.
Christmastime is when
1) the throat-soothing, fresh, orgasmic, zingy PEPPERMINT SYRUP can be added to ANY of your favourite Starbucks drink!
Try the Peppermint Mocha (hot/iced/frappuccino are ALL nice =D)!
You wont regret it!
For the strictly I-Simply-Have-To-Stay-Away-From-Anything-Coffee person, there's Iced Cocoa with Peppermint syrup!
Yummmmmmm (:
They'd put whipped cream with chocolate syrup one.
Hee!
2) The wonderful Christmassy atmosphere in Starbucks! They will play jazzy Christmas carols, the cups will be red to match the Christmas colours, the lovelyyyyyy & homey Christmas deco, Christmas food & the new range of Starbucks tumblers in Christmas designs!
Woooooot!

Okay how do I know so much Starbucks info.
Haha.
I study at the now-no-more Starbucks next to the Marine Parade Library during the O Level period.
I went there all the way through Christmas as well to slack & catch up with old friends.
It was my favourite place to go to!
So nice & homey!
With the BIIIIIG couches & friendly baristas!
Now it's been shut, smashed down & a new dance studio is taking over.
Bleah.
I want my Starbucks back ):

Okay anywayyyy.
I want to see YOUR FAVOURITE CHRISTMAS THING.
So please!
POST! (:

Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS in advance! (:

Love,
Zennywenny, CEO of the Dim Sum Palace!

HEY CLASS!

So sorry about the long awaited journal entry's details.
Been trying to contact Ms K for a week now, but she hasnt actually remembered to call me however many times I reminded her to.

It's so heartwarming to see the pics of the Hospice people!
I think it'd be great if we went there again next year for Service Learning Day, dont you think?
(:

Okay, I really hope I'll see you guys this Thurs again (:
Do blog about your cool holiday experiences with pics here if you want!
It'd be really interesting for people like me who's not going anywhere further than Sentosa this year-end hols.
Yea.
Haha.

For the rest of you, Christmas is coming!
New Year too!
Parties parties!
Then we'll all be back in school again......
Well... Dont forget your homework!

Love,
Zen.

Cost: Free!

Tell me asap if you want to go!

2006-12-02T01:59:00.000-08:00

My goodness where has everyone gone?
i'm back!!!! and bored stiff even though there are so many things to do. so many assignments to do. yuck. i should have stayed in England. It's pretty big i'm sure it'd take quite a few years to find me and yank me back here.
anyways England was great. there is so much land there! i was staying with my granny and she lives near the moors-which are like grassy hills. it's beautiful. you can just stand on top and be wowed by the view and the amount of sheep there are. it's so peaceful, so slow, so unlike busy Singapore. i LOVE it there.
ohh and i'm sad to say i betrayed Liverpool by going to Old Trafford ): yeah boon i stepped on the same floor as rooney. breathed the same air as scholes. ran through the same tunnel Manchester Stars ran through. like OMG!! haha. i went into their dressing rooms and all. it was pretty cool la i'l have to say.
and i've decided that i'm SOOOOOOO over chinese guys. i'm going to marry some hot British dude. i really saw like a lot of cute guys la!! just walking down the damn street and there they were. just another reason to move back.

so what's been happening with you lot? i still haven't seen the pullover man. and what's this chalet talk. and the ZOO!!! haha.
take care and hopefully see ya all sooner rather then later.

touchdown chalet!

2006-11-30T06:22:00.000-08:00

selvan here!

okay ive got a chalet from 17-19 dec at east coast.

your all more than welcomed to come. i'll be calling a few outside friends cuz i doubt the whole class is gonna show up. anyways, i hope at least some of you can pop by for some decent food, drinks and just mingle around or do any of those crazy activities we often come up with haha. an added incentive would be getting a tiny peek at my life outside sajc haha. i think my band ( which i quit) might be there or atleast some of em, so we might rip up some tunes for all of you to see. being a ladys man, i could tone down on the heaviness and go accoustic.. ha!

whats with yall? the apparent hippest jc class in spore?! its been a very very muted november and i hope the same theme dosent follow for december! so yeah, do let me know of your attendance when you can.

2006-11-23T07:46:00.000-08:00

ANYWAYS. BLOGGER SUCKS IN CHINESE

2006-11-17T16:59:00.000-08:00

HELLLLLLLLO MY BELOVED CLASS!!!!
TAKE A PIC OF THE PULLOVER OR JUST GIVE ME MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yes,so who's holding on to mine ah?!?!?! own up
and anw, im in for the chalet SELVAN. dec will be fine. i think most ppl are back from their holidays and all the stupid sch camps!!! :))
anw, it'll b impossible to get the entire class to go anyway so just draw out a few possible dates,and majority wins.

I WANT MY PULLOVER.

period.

hello all you retards.

2006-11-16T07:17:00.000-08:00

ah, my minions!

the pullovers are done already, just in case you didn't know. for those who came down to novena, thanks so much k. really appreciated by zen and myself. pls rmb to tell those people whom y'all took for ok. and those who haven't got it? i dont care how you're gonna go about it but go and find out who's helping you hold on to yours ok!!

i tried mine on and posed in front of the mirror when i got home. and dayamn it looks good. can't waita see all of us in it! :DDDDD

chalet!

2006-11-16T05:51:00.000-08:00

so after drowning meeshell via some shots of gin and rum, i managed to get to get her old blog username and pw.
definitely a night id NEVER forget, for more reasons than one!

to the point now..
i know a friend who knows a friend. the latters mother works in the chalet business and shes been in the circuit for quite some time. she knows her ropes and makes for a pretty decent connection. if you lot seriously want a chalet then ill drop my karkees a line and they'll sort it from there. i gotta know soon tho cuz at this time of the year every vacant place is being snapped up as fast as the rate of luke chens hair loss, so please, stop being fickle. to hasten up this whole process, i think itd be best if the class was msged , this way we get EVERYBODYS answer. majority wins.

im all for a chalet, cuz i know itll be bloody crazy, it a good way. i do have one minor minor request tho.. if yall do want it, then 1 person 1 bottle. capeesh?!

2006-11-12T03:58:00.000-08:00

ok this is the best i can do in changing the template to the given ones. and i dont know why everything appears at the bottom. so yes. html sucks.

ok. i am really running out of ideas for my I&R. and i cannot think of shit for alternative approaches. i think SA's system of throwing us into the deep end without floats is crazy. nehnehpoks.

ok going off for my next cooking adventure with the brother. haha. XIAOMING, JEALOUS NORTXZ!?

hey,

2006-11-12T00:13:00.000-08:00

HI! DOES ANYONE KNOW A GOOD ECONS TUTOR? PREFERABLY NOT TOO EXPENSIVE YEAH. THANKS. AND IF ANYONE WANTS TO GO WITH ME TELL ME ALSO. :)

PW rocks, no?

2006-11-09T05:11:00.000-08:00

Hello class. PW is over! Well, almost. Anyway, morning shift for OP people. You guys missed out on the scolding of the year man. Miss K is old news pls. Check out these excerpts from The Teacher In The Blue Shirt:

"This is a bloody examination!" [teachers really shldn't be using this kind of language in the classroom right? so what if you're a GP teacher? hm maybe I should bring this up to the school board.]

"You all are smelly, you are untidy, you are unprepared!" [he repeated this like a million times.]

"Where's your sense of purpose?" [another million times]

(to Krystal) "Put your leg down, you're not the boss here!" *glares*

(points to weiling i think) "You were smsing!" (points to Deborah) "You can even ask me whether you can use the phone!"

"A2 right? Ah. I've heard a lot about you ah." [etc. I can't rmb what else he said about us after this. but seems like the staff room has been gossiping about us...!!]

"You better not let me take you all next year! If I see familiar faces, doing the same kind of thing *points to our projector screen* I SWEAR I will tear you to pieces."

YES OK THATS WHAT HE ACTUALLY SAID. And we all kinda just stared back at him lah. Like what are we supposed to do/say huh?

Oh yeah, good thing he didn't catch us eating man. If not I think we'd really be "torn into pieces" already..haha

looks like we're all gonna get band 3...

ok. somebody go find out what his name is ok?

we're going to the zoo zoo zoo

2006-11-07T07:08:00.000-08:00

we're going to the zoo zoo zoo. how about you you you? you can come too too too! we're going to the zoo zoo zooooo! steve irwin looks so sweet in this picture. he rocks man.

so a2 a2! ZOO TRIP! next monday 13th nov. it's pretty much confirmed. i think hahaha. meet at ang mo kio mrt station next monday at 9:30 am. this is pretty early for lazy farts like me, but oh well dig yourself out of bed anyway cause it's going to be a day of fun and lameness and animals!!! plus! it's also to celebrate EUGENE's and BOONSZX's birthdays! and it's best to start early in the morning. the zoo itself opens at 8:30 am and the animals are more action then so yah. i don't think you'd want to visit the elephants at 5 pm when they feel all crappy too. anyway, from amk mrt we'll then take bus 138 to the zoo together. admission for adults (i think we are considered adults...ok yes we are.) is $15 per homo sapien. however!!! wonderful luke and deb ng can probably get us 8 free tickets each. so the actual cost would then be divided amongst all of us and we'll all get to pay less. and yesh that's about it for boring information.

tips! on what to bring: yourself! and not much apart from that. cause you don't want to be lugging stuff around that saps your energy unnecessarily. but some extras you might want to bring include water, sunblock? sunglasses and a cap maybe. (boonszx you can act cool again and wear your cap but this time in daylight.) disposable raincoat? wear comfortable clothes and shoes please! if you're willing to kill yourself with the heat go ahead but i recommend shorts instead of jeans. insect repellent? i'll be bringing a can of spray for us anyway. if i remember that is hahaha. i'm not too sure about snacks. but maybe someone will bring a bag of stuff we can share on the go.

now what the heck are we going to do there???!!!!: well let's just be spontaneous and decide when we get there! but generally there are animal shows and feeding times we can take note of. i'm not sure if you guys want to go everywhere by foot or take the tram but i think we need to pay for that. i think that the highlight of the trip though will be CHILDREN'S WORLD. hahahahahaha!!! serious! i've always loved that the best. with the playground, fountains and petting zoo.

okay that's about it for now. as far as i can remember. do sms me or mich or zen regarding whether you are going please!

till then, i love you. EMO baby. hahaha. by the way THE DEARS rocks man!!!!! greatttt indie band go check it out. it's got to be a huge influence of our class band's music. it's evident from our first hit "the wagors song" too (:

2006-11-05T00:56:00.000-08:00

hello class. pls get back to me ASAP!!!
where do u guys suggest the mr peh tiramisu day to be?!?!?!?!?!
and whennnnnnnnnnn????
pls msg me if u guys want it at ur place. if not i'll just anyhow choose -.-''
HEH

you corporate fools!

2006-11-04T07:53:00.000-08:00

harrooooowwwww.

ack i'm about set to kill something right now. i just spent a heck lot of time writing one post, only to have my whole computer shut down very suddenly without reason, before i saved it!!! bleahcuieabcvyhbwk! maybe this is a sign i'm too lor sor.

so i'll get to the point right now. as my groupmate mindy just mentioned, what happened to watching the prestige??? can we have a virtual show of hands who wants to watch? tentative date is monday, but that's just a suggestion. throw me your own dates if you'd rather that. hokayhokay? (i want to watch an inconvenient truth too btw anyone up for that?)

next thing! the singapore biennale ends next sunday on the 12th. so does anyone want to go? so far there's me and mindy, debs? shirn? mich did you go with jia hui already? i've got a few tickets (for the payable sites) which haven't been fully used. though minks says entry to the national museum is now free. i don't know what's going on but we'll worry about that later. it's to our advantage anyway.

last thing!!!! personally i realised how lost i feel now that school's out and we're finally "free". cause this freedom is a lie. yet all the more i want to make the most out of this time before we get too busy to even enjoy false freedom. so if you guys'd like we can organise a whole smorgasbord of lameass activities. class chalet/downtown east, zoo/night safari trip, mr peh's tiramisu, christmas parties and the list goes on. just please please please give me your suggestions. and tell me when you're free. or rather when you're NOT free. i.e. on holiday overseas or sth. i'll put it all together and draw up the best dates for whatever.

something like that la! so yea? i'll need your help with this so do respond. don't just read, chuckle, then run off and watch youtube.

haha who chuckles nowadays? (: dolphinlove.

harrow harrow harrow

2006-11-03T08:11:00.000-08:00

harrow! wahlau ehzzz, yingjie what the hell is that that you've put up. they're guys? hahahaha! oh yes! chinese is over. time for some fun. eh what happened to THE PRESTIGE outing ar, to those who haven't catch the show yet. let's watch together leh! monday?tuesday? okok set?! haha, here are some of da pictures taken on OP dry-run 2 day and TB jab day! urgh why are the pictures up there. oh well, anyway sorry they're so boring la. that day really nothing much exciting happened. well maybe except for the HOT STUFF. tilt your heads girls. eeeeeww.

2006-11-03T03:38:00.000-08:00

Where has the time gone
It seems to fly so fast
One moment you're having fun
The next its come to pass
Days turn into yesteryear
Old friends find their own way
Until the moment you leave
I wish that you would stay

So here's to you, all our friends
Surely we will meet again
Don't stay away too long this time
We'll raise a glass, maybe two
And we'll be thinkng of you
Until our paths cross again
Maybe next time...

Let's laugh at the memories
And talk all afternoon
Let's remember the moments that leave us all too soon
We'll smile at the pictures still lingering in our minds
When you're reminiscing
Then all you need is time

So here's to you, all our friends
Surely we will meet again
Don't stay away too long this time
We'll raise a glass, maybe two
And we'll be thinkng of you
Until our paths cross again
Maybe next time...

Tracing faded photographs
A scrapbooks' lonely charm
Pressed flowers and dreams we had
Our fingerprint on time
The 1st moment we ever met
When your eyes met mine
I remember the summers of Dandelion Wine

Dandelion Wine by Blackmore's Night

2006-10-30T08:42:00.000-08:00

i live everyday in celebration for i have a2! it's alright mich i love you too!!! (((: i don't deserve anything but i have all of you guys so it's wonderful. i'm blessed and thus i celebrate. i'm happiest when i'm with the classzx mansxz. it's going to be different, but i assure you it won't be that different at all. and i'm not contradicting myself! it's a paradox! viva forever lorszx. we are all friends above all the crap we have to face (such as that last picture right there ahem.) (he's not going to be my ct anymore so what the heck hahaha ayia joking la dl needs more friends i feel sad for him.) life technically moves on cause the earth rotates and stuff (bummer...) but a2 never dies. yo, we'll take you to the candy shop. i expect to be invited to all your weddings arhh!!! where i'll embarrass you by still believing i'm 17 and singing spice girls really loudly whoots!

so todaysxzsx. major klazz bonding during injection de worsxz! don't feel bad okay si ying! it's totally not your fault! and if anything i'm glad that today i kinda ridded myself of my fear of needles haha yay! cause it really wasn't that bad in the end. still can't quite believe we actually took a jab today! we are power mansxz! girl powah!

hmm what else happened today. mich i sooo agree that so many crazy things happen everyday we're in school that if only we could just remember them all we could laugh our lives away! came to school early. bummed around reading newspapers till 8. we pissed dl off. we had dry run two and totally didn't care. we went down to the caf to eat and crap. and i discovered the joy of cool girly ericsson phone themes thanks to zhao and cherr haha. we came back up again and danced ok go! then me mich shirn minks and debszx went into the empty dark lt to play with the mike. where debs totally whored it and beatboxed and went "luke i am your fartharrrr". debs you rock man! took photos with mindy's new CYBERSHOT PHONE whoa whoa. dl dismissed us whoopdeedoo. miss k checked up on how me and selvan were doing which was really nice! went for econs where i discovered mr peh doesn't like rachels. agreed rachong? hahaha. class pullover here we come! my injection bump was a perfect circle! it was scary getting that jab but hahaha have to admit it was pretty fun after all. someone remind me i got my jab on my right arm k? then it was byebye time. i stayed in the caf with debs shuf and minks till cricket training started though. haha crapping in the caf to music on debs laptop rocks man. heal the world. i am the sea. i am a bird. i'll make love to you. tokyo drift drift drift uhhhh. measure is stalking me and mindy now hah! see see now it's your turn. we are hot stuff cannot bruff.

ok sorry that was soooo verbal diarrhoea haha oh and by the way today me and mindy found out that diarrhoea is the second largest killer of kiddies in the world. if i'm not mistaken. but the cure is oral rehydration in the form of just a jug of water with a large pinch of salt and handful of sugar mixed into it. so there!

Thoughts..

2006-10-30T05:38:00.000-08:00

Yooooozzzz ppl.

Long time no post.

ok. recently a few things has been happening and i juz wanna share some of my thoughts yea. So..i guess it'll be slightly emo, and if u wanna skip it, by all means! Juz take note of the last point yea(*). Short post, here goes.

Thanks everybody for the past year. It has been great, and i'm sure many of us are thinking this way. Thanks for doing activities together, thanks for studying, playing, eating and dancing together. More importantly, Thanks for being there. Next year would be different, but let's face reality and look forward yea.

To selvan and rachel, I'm positive, and i bet the $10 times book voucher on it, that next year would be different without the both of u. But it's my prayer that u guys continue to work hard, in whichever paths u guys are taking. The class would still always be here yea.

To siying, erm..dun feel guilty that u got tb and we had to go for injection yea.

To zihui, thanks for trusting us.

(*) To the entire class, erm..the pics with our math teachers are up on shutterfly already hor. username = therocking06a2@hotmail.com
password = thriller

Yup, so those are the few things running through my mind now, and i guess some of those points are a summary of wad many of us are thinking eh. Oh wells. By the way, pardon the..few words in some points. Can't help it, i'm a guy wif few words.

Sooo..yea..tt's all folks. =)

i've been crying for the past 15 mins.

2006-10-29T04:43:00.000-08:00

So here I was, about to log on to Moodle to do online Chinese papers but suddenly just thought if I shld go to the class blog to see if it was dead. And to my VERY pleasant surprise, I saw instead how alive it IS. Seems like in the past 5 days I haven't been online, I have been missing out on SO, so much that's been happening.

So, as the subject says, I've been crying for the past 10-15 minutes, just reading everyone's post on this blog, on each of your individual blogs as well. All talking about rachel and selvan, etc. I was so, so, touched to see (like rach said), so much love going around. Really. I don't think I'm gonna write what everybody else has been writing cos that's also how i feel. Like how much we'll miss the 2 of them and such. How we'll still be there for each other. How we'll all push each other to the best that all of us can be.

Now, personally to Rachel;
girl i am sorry for the bottomest of my heart i haven't really been there for you this whole period (oh shucks im starting to tear again). Really SORRY. I'm not very good at comforting people especially those close to me, I just keep quiet and let other people do the talking. So i really do apologise, cos I treat you as my best friend in this class. I still rmb how we met, haha, and every other memory we've shared from that moment. Like I said in my last post, you really never ever fail to make me laugh at least 5 times in 1 day i see you. Never met anyone like you, how fortunate I am to have known and spent so many waking hours with you! I haven't actually accepted the reality yet...I'm don't want to let you go. Not ready to. In fact I don't think I ever will. Sometimes, I wish I'd pushed you harder...but I thought with your 9pts from Os you'd be able to breeze through promos. I really should have just pushed you...and now, a huge part of my life is going to be missing. I love you Rachel. I'll hug you everytime I see you next year :D Will definitely keep praying for you, do remember to always thank Him and praise Him, and look to Him for guidance and seek solace in Him. I know you'll remember all the love shared among 06a2 and all the precious memories. *hugs

p.s. met Nicole ytd at church, and she says she misses you, and to hurry come and catch up with her! :)

Ok, now to Selvan;
haha, you know what? I honestly thought you were weird. kept quiet the whole time. And when you did open our mouth, you were so...soft! Haha. But anyways soon enough I found out how humorous you are. And we "bonded" over soccer too, haha. (Frank Lampard still rocks and so does Chelsea anyway. Haha.) Anyway, I hope you've made the right decision in going private yeah (which wasn't really your decision right. but nvm) and continue to work hard. I was impressed with your change of heart towards academia after the CTs. Really I was. Well so anyway just would like to wish you a good journey towards the As, will be praying for you too. And make it for our class outings and stuff ok!!!! Hmph. AND, it would be nice if you dispelled all kinds of vulgarities from your life too, thank you very much. Ahha.

To the rest of the class;
I'll write you all your separate "tributes" and give them to you soon enough lah ok! :)

I LOVE ALL OF YOU SO MUCH!

2006-10-28T20:04:00.000-07:00

selvan, the post was awesome!! though i still dont understand why deb had to post it for u lol.
anyway, i felt i cld relate to a no. of things u said..
i was shunning awy from this class quite alot till rd term3 (shocking huh??)
but mine wasnt alot of ponning sch or disappearing during breaks.
well,i did prefer to stay in the library to mug during breaks , but there was the other side of me who stuck with the class & usual peeps during breaks & tried to stick in.
it wasnt fun. it was superficial. it was a facade. dreaded sch everyday. simply bcoz i hated the sudden chg, be it of environment & ppl..

but all's well now. and u know, im so glad the last term has been a whole lot of difference. my perspective of selvan changed alot. ure a great fellla & a funny one too. keep us updated thru this blog ok? all the best!

2006-10-28T09:41:00.000-07:00

harrow pper.

selvan! i'm very glad you decided to share all that with us(: i'm proud of you that was brave and respectable. totally. we're a class and we're here to listen and talk. and crap and dance and sing and do everything under the sun. we're here for you, and we're here for each other no matter what! (hah if only dl cared.) i'm glad that now you've really become an integral part of the class, and a2 is seriously set in stone. haha yeah i think mich is right we should all do testimonials about the past year, cause it's really been quite a journey. we've grown and grown and grown together, everything building up beautifully into what we have now which is profound! such that now i find it very hard trying to recall what it was like before haha.

thanks everyone for alllll the support, even from the man of the hour himself, selvan from jeevansathi.com india's no.1 matrimonial site. if you've got problems or anything continue to voice it out! we are a crass (clumpler!) and we won't leave you alone as you face the verrrry hard route of handling your As privately. okay yeah i feel odd saying "we" since i'm not even taking my As next year, but ayia i'm sure you guys feel the same way! so ya thanks everyone i love love love. it's helped me through incredibly so. sigh(:

and heh i'm thinking what the heck! it'll be fine and normal la! we'll still do all sorts of things and go places as a class, we can still have an a2 band (ictalent anyone? so far we have zihui's lullaby in a minor, and a wagors indie song on piano! show you all soon haha.) that includes selvan too hokay! i'm going to try and see if they'll let me join you all as a "j2" for first intake so at least i'm doing something not wasting time in orientation. and even if they don't (cause they suck, the by the book conformist institution!) i'm joining you guys anyway! i'll go copy your timetable and crash all your lectures and stuff. i'll have a lot of free time with no chinese and pw anyway. it'll be good to get to learn j2 stuff, i want to prepare myself. we can still study together too haha i can help you all with j1 stuff if i can understand it myself first. yup need help with anything at all i'm here. cause j2 sucks man i'm pretty scared for you guys cause it's stresssss. the only huhh? thing for me will be when you guys finish your As and are free, but i'm still stuck in school. wah sai. hahaha!! but tsk i'll worry about that later. i'm learning to commit it all to God.

anyway all the love that's going around right now is wonderful fantastic. we are a real class dammit! can you feel the lurrve??? the world must know!

and alas! who wants to watch the prestige on monday after our injections to cheer our arms up and celebrate the advancements in modern medicine! plus do i have any suggestions for holiday class events? chalet? escape theme park day? (omg so lame but so fun hahaha) christmas party or partIES? haha maybe i should get my techno act together again. think out of the box and be creative! what ridiculous endeavours will be next hmm?

2006-10-27T22:10:00.000-07:00

hello!!! READ THIS GUYS! ESPECIALLY MINDY AND SHIRLYN! THIS IS FROM SELVAN! while reading this, i kinda laughed and smiled a lot. i guess this kind of talk coming from a guy, kinda makes me feel, ahh, there are still some good guys left in the world. HAH selvan you are one of them. no here goes

"hey class. what a breakthrough this is for me eh?

I never noticed how funny this blog is haha, gesus krist. And once again, my appreciation goes out to everyone for coming last sat, tho I personally felt the party could’ve been a tad better, it was definitely a day I’ll never forget with this exceptional class. im not quite sure what spurred me to even have it, and in all honestly it had little do to with deepavali. I guess instead, it was sorta a farewell from me to all of you instead. I wouldn’t just do it for any class, cuz im not the sort whose into all these class thingys cuz I find them quite clichéd, especially when the whole event seems kinda forced.

Anyways these few months I’ve sent with yall have been a real emotional roller-oaster.
At first I thought to myself I was destined for a very very mundane and uneventful time, given there were 22 girls and only 3 guys. Back in sec sch, I was almost always with guys. It was helluva fun and I was really so frustrated and pissed that I had to give that up and instead be in this hell hole stuck with all of you. I come frm a sec sch of zero culture, well the only culture we had was an integration of fights, vulgar words. Term 1 in sa I was in sience stream, and it wasn’t all that bad. I was in s22, had a few talk cock buddies, and in that class there were 2 guys who were frm pretty screwed up neighbourhood schools, so naturally I could relate to them much easier haha. And also, the guy-girl proportion was pretty much even stevens. I had a decent time there but still I felt I hadn’t found my place in the class and just as I was getting into my groove and started turning on the style, the 2nd intake came and the momentum was broken, at the worst possible time.

Enter Arts Fac. Enter 06A02.

Term 2 started out real slow for me. I was kinda trying to avoid you all during the breaks and stuff and I hardly sociallised. I just couldn’t connect in any way with any of you, maybe because I wasn’t letting myself do so. For some reason, I tend to create these impregnable barriers with people whom don’t make positive first impressions to me. Im the sort of guy who hates change because change means you leave something/someone behind, change means you replace something/someone with new things/people and I just hate that. Im quite sentimental and id rather stick with what I loved in the past than attempt to love new things just for the sake of abiding by the rules of change. But as time went by I started to see what I was letting myself miss out on – the companionship of many brilliant people. So after stumbling through term 2, things abrubtly started to pick up pace, essentially with the class and myself.
Friendships started to forge, I started to laugh a lot more, and basically I got my face finally painted on the o6a2 family portrait. Was about time really. It dawned on me that my initial skepticism was just plain ignorance and stubbornness because I really shouldn’t have doubted anything in the first place, and leaving sa, that is my main regret- missing out on a whole term with you lot. Anyhow,, term 3 was a blast and term 4 was dynamite really. its amazing how something could seem so wrong and ugly to you at first but after a while seem so perfect and surreal.
I feel I haven’t fully expressed myself to all of you yet, and im sure most of you haven’t fully figured me out. I myself don’t know most of you, though I wish I could have the opportunity to do so. its going to be so hard for me to part with this class, especially with the people im closer to but all good things must come to an end and it’s a pity that this only lasted a while. There are people in this class I will never forget and I hope we can still keep in touch. Ill be doing my a’s as a private candidate cuz as far as my parents are concerned, my pre-u course must not be more than 2 yr
long. That’s their position and as usual, I don’t have any say in it. So its not just you lot that’ll be sitting for the a’s next yr.. so perhaps we could study together??? yall could teach me whatever and I can teach you how to light a samovar or smth

Anyways u’ve all gone through the Selvan Experience unfortunately it does end here, some other lucky people will be taking your places.

To the guys : cmon doods, yall can still come through next year with ur manhood intact all proper. the coolest and ideal example of a Man is gone, but if yall need tips just drop me a line. Luke, stay away frm the sun or anything that perpetuates hairloss, I don’t want ur apology for a hairstyle to get any worse. Eugene, stop studying, theres more to life than trying to impresse DL (daring legend). Boon liang, keep dreaming kid. Man utd will NEVER make it.

To the girls : I know I’ve got lots of fans among you lot. Hmm, Im not changing my number anytime soon, so yeah, if you miss my face or style or swagger , im always set for a date, I hardly break hearts. Infact my new years resolution this yr was to stop breaking girls hearts. a tip for the babes tho, remember, if a guy dosent like you for who you are then to hell with him, do not change yourself or anything just to make him like you because I have witnessed it a lot and its never the right way to go.

To the class: the cool guy has left, the ultimate player has packed his bags and gone. HOW NOW? Perhaps yall could remember me by keeping the ‘coolest bloke’ role in class vacant. Don’t go giving it to boon just cuz he turned up for my party with a cap.

Okay people. Your all awesome in one way or another. Its hard to let go of some of you and its hard to let go of the class as a whole, but change is inevitable and its fair to say that I brough all this doom and gloom upon myself because of my lack of effort and laziness. Im paying the price of it and whatever the implications are, I will accept it and move on. My head will always be held high no matter what and I’ll be in close contact with all of you through this blog, msn or whatever. Do include me in the class outings and what not yeah? perhaps one of those outings might be a 07 deepavali bash at my pad again.

Was awesome while it lasted."

this is sad. you'll be missed.

hey rach, i know ure gg thru a difficult period,it is so tough but yet uve got to pick it really carefully bcoz that will determine ur future. so all in all, the decision will lie in u. uve stated so many choices, and in a way uve imagined how life will be like for each and every choices..
but yet i want to give u a piece of advice, and hope u'll heed it.
Dont run away from difficulties in life,uve got to go thru it before you learn.

no,im not someone great or brave.but i just feel that the truth is everyone needs atleast a huge obstacle in life before they learn to grow. u know uve got a problem with staying focus etc.. but yet u dont know how exactly are u gonna go about solving that problem.
u know u have been having this problem since sec1, but yet u still managed to pass ur Os and other exams with aces.

so when will u ever chg? when will u ever feel less complacent?
1)by moving to a whole new environment (eg international sch) when everyones' just like u, having fun and doing things at the pace they want it to be?
2)by taking private As where u need'nt face the embarassement ,and can put the past yr of mistakes behind?
3)Or by being retained? (yes,the embarassment,pain,misery..and pay the price..)

now u look at the 3 options and u'll prolly think all of them sucks.
but look, this is wad life is about.

im not trying to be mean here by wanting u to learn ur lesson and go thru a whole lot of pain before finally learning.not everyone can go thru it, but u know we are all here and knowing there are frens out there who cares and loves u just the same,makes the problems so much easier to go thru...

u always say 'zihui have gone thru so much more', but i look back at the 2 yrs of tears,then i think its nothing anymore. not like it dosent hurt when i think abt it or how bitter life was,but really i wldnt be who i am today if not for the 2 yrs. (yes,i inculcated all the hardworkingness,independence blahblahblah there).
rach,uve got a strong character and i admire u for that just as much. uve said ' i wanna complete smt that ive alrd started' that coming out from anybody caught in this situation is alrd amazing. wadeva ur decision is, the next yr/s will b a huge obstacle just as well.. but you will go thru it and survive thru just like me.

2006-10-26T10:58:00.000-07:00

"a rose by any other name, will still smell as sweet" thus, 06a2 will always be 06a2 no matter what.

its gonna be sad, there'll be tears. there'll be pain, but nothing that cant be solved. everything will work out somehow, some way, in His own time.

i'll miss you guys. its sad cause you are so much a part of the class. but realistically speaking, we will all move on, new friends, new experiences. i can't promise 'forever', i dont think anyone can. even though the beginning stage may be a pain, with much annoying small talk and "lonerism" but then again without all that, we wouldnt be friends now, would we. though we may leave things that we cherish behind, we still carry with us memories and this blog, which needs a total make over.

so cheer up everyone, its not the end of the world. wipe away those tears. lets all face tmw in a new light. things always seem more glum than it actually is. there will always be more OK-go dances, movies, soccer, chalets, tokyo drifts and indie music! WOOHOO!

anyways. i hope the j1 batch next year will have E.Ts :]

2006-10-26T06:35:00.000-07:00

so this is in response to Racho.
today after chye tin's talk i was told that if i screw up my block test 1 next year i'll be kicked outta school. and for a moment i thought that sucked. so i told racho bout it and said that i'd rather retain. and she looked at me and said 'do u wanna switch places with me?' i could have smacked myself for being such a selfish idiot. im sorry rach. so much for seeing my glass as half full huh. i'm given a second chance to prove myself and i'm complaining.
so rach i think you shld stay in SA. you will definately drift from the class but i don't think u'll ever feel unwanted(: you've found a class you belong in, we all have-how many people can say that. and friendships don't disappear overnight. we'll still be here. and on the plus side u won't see mr pao everyday anymore. we'd be happy to bitch bout him to you ANYTIME, trust me on that.
many people who retain actually do better the second time around. it's better in some ways to get your basics right first cause J2 sounds like a real bitch.
so take care of yourself. live and let die my friend.
sometimes life just sucks. it's super unpredictable. you either keep running from it or fight it. and no one said you have to fight it ALONE.

well well

2006-10-26T00:46:00.000-07:00

apple, pony, dolphin, diva-viva-lim5 , angel.

sigh guys. SIGHHHHH. so i've been retained and now i don't know what to do. after three days of depression, i've finally moved on. well no. as in this is still a hugggeeee sadness and problem, but i'm not going to cry anymore. anyway i can't resist being happy and screaming hellooOoOoOOoo!!! really embarrassingly when i'm with you guys. you know I LOVE THIS CLASS SOOOOOO MUCH

you guys are sooo precious to me. and being in a school with a class and all has never been this perfect. scgs was amazing too when i think about memories here and there, but in a different way. (haha i sound like i'm talking about a boyfriend or sth. but you guys mean MORE than that to me.) i'd like do anything for this class! but they won't advance me. they are really strict la today i was talking to si ying's kenny, and his classmate who got 22 was speaking to lim chye tin right then cause he too desperately wanted to get promoted. we're allll desperate la. so i felt pretty bad when he finally came out and told kenny and his classmates that it was a flat no. i think the whole bunch of them (ray and kuo lun can't spell were there too) felt like crying. and his case considering cca and cts is better than mine! sheesh la actually i see already got agitated cause so many of us have to face this. there's so much love/camaraderie going around the school and people are willing to support each other, yet they continue to tear us apart. cause it's "for the best". shouldn't this be cherished and upholded? everyone who didn't come close to the promotional grade of 35 is getting retained. if i'm not wrong, all 50 odd 60 of us. stupid too of them, cause so far everyone i hear who's getting retained is probably going to leave the school. and you've got a whole bunch of rugby, soccer etc talents under this category.

i know it's my fault that i've gotten to this point. but it's still evilevilevil. everyone's different, and you have to understand the different reasons for which people struggle with their studies. and the school is not making good administered effort to address this retaining or no retaining. it's all PRESCRIPTIVE. just like my group SA006 mentioned in our OP.evilEVIL.

looking at our pw photo up there makes me smile, but then when i remember what i'm faced with it hurts a lot. urghhh. i'm most afraid of losing a2 and my art class and miss chan. these are what matter to me the most. hahaha no actually they are all that matter to me in sa.

i really am at a loss right now. there are battles going on in my head and my spirit is being ricocheted about my thorax and beyond. arghhhhhhhh. first is the horrible sinking killing feeling of nothing being the same anymore. i live everyday right now like a dying man(or woman). on one hand dreading and refusing to face the truth. and on the other trying to hold on to every moment left i truely have with you guys. and it technically ended today though i do have till the end of this year. then i have to try and decide what step to take next. accept my fate? take my As privately? runaway once again to another school? poly? acs international? UWC? go overseas? and clearly i'm not ready.

i don't really think logically. i'm impulsive i guess, letting my decisions rest mainly on what my heart desires for. it's frustrating it's like deciding whether to stay in choir or not once again (stupid stupid problem) but yeah much worse with muchhh more servere implications. (oh great! TATU is on itunes. how soon is now. fav angsty song!) i need input from as many people as possible to make my decision, but the more i hear, the more i'm torn apart in all directions.

staying in sa: i can't imagine this at all. too too too painful. i can't bear to think about you guys going for lecture, then eating in the caf. talking about random stuff but yet it's so important. and i can't be there. no more helloOoOoOo. even if i meet up with you guys or sth, hah i wouldn't know what's been going on in class or whatever. i might end up feeling awkward and unwanted. i can't imagine being amongst all those lost sheep j1s. trying to waaait for them to find their place. wait for the superficiality to pass. wait for them to settle in. wait for lessons to really start. what a horrid break in momentum. half a year of crap before things pick up pace again. and there you guys will go speeding on with your As. scary hahaha but for me it's i dunno hard to accept that we are doing different things. i can't be in it together with all of you. and after you leave and you are free, it'll be my turn and i don't know how long i can last. from a different point of view, one that would tell me it's okay to stay, it would be only a year before you guys leave jc. no time at all. realistically speaking (i hate to though) that's the end too that comes anyway. we wouldn't be able to be together anymore once we move on to uni. if i stay i'll get to complete my art too. TWO YEARS for COURSEWORK. that's got to help a lot. hahaha huge advantage if i can pull it off. i don't want to leave my art and miss chan's lessons in sa. lastly, very contradictory, if i do leave. really i'd hardly be able to see you guys anymore, despite whatever pain. if i stay at least you'll still be there, i can still join in when i can. just that i'll have to grit my teeth and not think about not actually being in a2 anymore. i will get more time to get my studies right. i just wonder if i can bear being left behind, having to accept change, and if i truely have the stamina to face another year of horrid jc academic and oh my gosh cca life. i don't think i was really made for jc. i just ended up here and this has become the only life i know.

taking my As privately: popular choice for guys. and this morning i seriously believed it was the way to go. i'll still be at the same level as you guys. i won't waste stupid time in j1 and lectures i don't even pay attention in. and i'll have freedom to take charge of my life. which i haven't done before but oh well gotta start now. i was thinking of getting a job to help fund tuition(minimally haha)which would be cool. but yeah this option went out the door most unfortunately. i really would have wanted this. cause i can't take art on my own.

another school: not a jc though. sth international. actually i didn't want this at all. i realise i'm no ang moh. i'm most comfortable with my kindred spirits. but yeah seriously it's really hard to find friends/a class like a2 anyway. this has been a real gift from God. beyond my wildest expectations. but like i said i'm not really jc material. in sec 4 when i was facing similar problems (haha) i actually wanted to go to an international school thinking i'd be happiest there(well that was before i found you guys and realised where i really am happy and belong right?) and maybe now that i know who i really am, rather than some raw impressionable teenager (haha mindy!) looking in all the wrong places, i'm ready to stand strong in a new environment. the curriculum and syllabus might be seriously better for me. it might hold my interest better and offer me more options. i can still do art though i have to be willing to step out of my comfort zone that is our art room and miss chan's support. yess no more cca commitments i'm unhappy with too. i can start afresh. and i'd better set it right this time. no poly. cause i don't want to narrow down my options. and i don't think i'd click with the people there. mark said he didn't (shufff!!!!!!! hahaha).

omggg SIGH. hmm how can i trust God in this situation. what can i do to include him in my decision? what is God's plan? people all tell me and i'd hate to admit it but yeah i do think this test is what God knows is best for me. i'm just wondering what i'm i supposed to learn out of this? and which path is the one that would fulfill that? i guess i do trust that whatever turns out will be for the best, but how do i get there? i think we can all see now with my withdrawal symptoms, that i'll have a hard time facing death of loved ones hahaha. okay getting random again! but yeah it's disturbing that we have to bear in mind heaven is the ultimate destination and that we must not attatch ourselves too much to anything here. yet cause we are made in the image in God, and God is a God of love, we tend to love to love as well, so naturally we end up loving things here! read the purpose driven life by rick warren(:

sorry i wrote so much. i always do huh? hahahaha. i don't know who's actually lasted so long, but if you have please tell me what you think. and haha whatever it is, i'm not leaving in spirit i'll always be here to disturb you guys. i'll spam the class blog, next year i might just run napfa with you guys while carrying ipod speakers hahahahaha, maybe still participate in valentine day's antics. i'll STUDY with you guys and as undisciplined as i am, i'll try my BEST to support you all while you face your As. A levels is a bitch man. please don't forget me and leave me out of class gatherings and outings to watch concerts and stuff! keep me informed okay!!! so i can make myself present.

by the way i was so depressed/love sick (with a2) yesterday i couldn't eat at all. so by this morning i think i lost weight! HAHAHAHA. cause shirn was like, your face looks sharper. hahahahaha weight loss HOOOOO!!! too bad i'm hungry again. booo.

TOO MUCH LOVE - rachel ginger dolphin.

help and vote sa as the coolest jc!!!i was so surprised to see that sa's actually leading! wayyy ahead of all the other jcs whose votes are nearly inexistant. only ac's trailing close behind hurhur. we are neck and neck once again. stomps actually pretty cool i think i'll spend more time checking it out. found out about this from a4's class blog http://bigk-iswatching.blogspot.com/ note the cool blog add. much like ours it draws references to their ct. hahaha. it's cool they have a blog now and they are a nice class! butttt i'm so sorry to say this publicly, WE ROCK SOOO MUCH MORE!!!!

right now i'm listening to the our time is coming cover by jamiroquai. best wake up alarm ever. anyway i'm really glad to see so many people posting! (: love!

so check it out! went to vivo city yesterday after church!!! it's huuuge and not bad pretty cool. mich went too before selvan's ultimate deepavali experience. sigh imagine if we were still at malan road! i can't stand the crowd. but i do appreciate the effort singapore's put in to try and revive our country. we've got a long way to go - their attempt at publicity and generating hype by assigning freelance actors to romp about the shopping mall doing crazy things was a little lame. but it's a start! there were some guys zooming abuot on segways and THAT was cool. i've been dreaming of riding a segway since forever. my only thought is that our own crazy class bunch could do a better job even if we weren't paid. they should have created a better environment too by playing mood music throughout the mall. oh by the way go check out the sunday's lifestyle newspaper for the IR sentosa project proposals. interesting! esp frank gehry's design. i think that looks the most attractive! they all seem to offer similar things (aquarium/ocearium which rocks! i love marine biology! water park thrill rides) so i'm just talking about the resort design. even more interesting is that gehry designed the famousss guggenheim museum in spain! amongst other impressive things. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Gehry if you guys remember in one of dl's lectures he showed this picture of a cool metalic wavy building. and when i asked what building it was he said he had no idea, he just found the picture. hahahaha. well it was of one of gehry's buildings whose picture he blindly used. can't remb which though. if you're interested in architecture check this site out http://www.greatbuildings.com/gbc.html gehry also designed this walt disney theatre in california. can't remb the name but anyway it houses a blackbox where REDCAT houses performances. and REDCAT is connected to calarts, the california institute for the arts. sth like that argh i'm too lazy to check all the facts but here's the site http://www.calarts.edu/ it's supported by walt disney, that's how i came to know of it. and it was my first encounter with a gehry building, before i knew who he was or bothered. if anyone's interested in studying the arts overseas consider this place! i don't know how great it is, but if disney supports it, it's good enough for me!

before vivo city however, we had lunch at harbourfront mall. and THE HORROR! my eyes they burn! i spotted this woman and her boyfriend or sth wandering about and was so affected, i just haaddd to take a photo to document the abstruse atrocity. i couldn't do it myself cause i think i would have looked pretty obvious (like the dl photo thing again hahaha) so i got my siblings to take the photos for me. they too were so appalled that they did it obligingly. we actually trailed her from the atrium, to breadtalk, then all the way out of the building. many failed attempts, but finally my sister pro man. walked right past her and took a series of multishots. and thus, i present you THIS!

do click on it to get a larger view. study it carefully! for full effect you've got to see the real thing, but this is the best i can present you! i've blurred out her face "somewhat" to protect her identity (heh as though we care. hahaha okay so mean!) but yeah if you can't see her face at all then it wouldn't be as impactful! this message was presented to you courtsey of da fashion police. all names have been changed to ensure the privacy of our mortal subjects

anyway i've uploaded the deepavali photos! here at my imagestation account. cause shutterfly was giving me problems. many thanks to selvan again!

Hi guys. Just wanna tell all of you how much i enjoyed yesterday, you know. I really, really, really love all of you. SO much, ok. Like, until the ends of the earth, etc. Ahha.

Thanks Zihui for finally trusting us, in a way. Heh. The purpose of setting up this blog was actually to help us bond better, also I hoped that we could not only share our school lives together, but our personal lives as well, at this period of time when we're sort of in our prime, the time when we're all just enjoying jc life and enjoying each other's company.

I was thinking of writing a tribute to 06a2 on this blog at the end of the year, but I'll just say a bit now lah. Initially I'm sure all of you felt that our class was so not close at all. First month of JAE, and I looked at other classes eg. A7 and A8 etc, I saw how well they all cliqued with each other and I wished very much so that I wasn't in A2. In that first month I barely talked to people like Shirlyn, Weiling, and so on. I wondered if this was gonna be my JC class. So boring lah.

And then suddenly I don't know what happened, but all the retarded sides of us came out. Then by Term 3 we were on the road to being the best class ever already. With things like Service Learning, National Day, Carpenter's Tools and stuff, those events really bonded us together (at least that's how I felt). Learning HSM dance (thank you guys for being so sporty), just being crazy and having fun everyday in school...

By Promos we definitely were like THE best class in like the whole world lah pls. Now I look at other classes and realise how fortunate I am to be stuck with you guys. So many random things happen everyday, I think God must think our lives as a class is a dramedy please. HAHA! If only I could remember everything that happened, I could laugh my life away.

Yep so, that's more or less what I feel. I'm sure Zen also feels a bit of what I feel, cos we've put in quite a lot of effort to bond the class together and it is indeed satisfying to take a step back and see how far we've come as a class.

One more year ahead of us guys, let's all work hard and play hard, together, as 06a2 of 2006/2007. :)

Special thanks to RACHEL HO for never failing to make my day. :)
