Happy Teachers' day to most all of my teachers!

Went back to my alma mater, North View Primary School after our celebrations. Saw some juniors from HCI over there, very little though. Saw some of my fellow chess club members also. Duno why didn't see any of our ex-classmates..zzz all just dao, only me and yk go because we know how to 饮水思源, lol.
















They were still having their concert when we arrived.


















Went down to canteen to makan first, haha 4 dishes for $1.60. Quite ex though compared to last time, where it was 80cents for 3 dishes. Maybe the auntie see us sec 4 then wan scam our money...


















Miss Koh, our primary 6 form teacher. She can be dam fierce one, last time she tore up yk's paper and throw at his face, LOL.



















Mr Long, my primary school chess club teacher-in-charge. Haha last time i didn't have a CCA and was forced to join. Managed to like chess, though I haven't been playing since eons ago.

















A card that he gave me. Spell my name wrongly summore. Can't blame him, 4 years never contact liao.


Just checked my results on results portal. Got 1.89, but somehow I don't feel happy. Must be because my class got too many pro muggers liao, make me get 1.89 still quite sad-case.


Zitao told me over MSN that 4D is no longer first in cohort liao. Overtaken by 4I, according to him. Finally got dethroned after 6 terms of domination. Nvm we will fight back during EOYs.


Test, test and more tests. Checked smb and saw 2 upcoming tests, physics revision (all sec 3 and 4 topics, sian) and chinese common test. Zzzzzz.


Shall compile a list of holiday homework and start on them soon.

Happy Birthday Winston! Haha imba sweater, must be because you too hot liao =.=.

Went for SL after school today. We have to complete the whole duration even though we never got into finals. When we arrived, some of the the kids were making teacher day cards and one of them actually gave us cards that he drew. One of the kids that I teach wrote his address on a piece of paper and gave it to me, asking me to go his house and play, lol.I not like junkaii hor.

I really appreciate the kids' efforts. Sometimes its good to do things without constantly thinking of tangible results. Especially for SL projects etc, if not it totally defeats the purpose of serving the community. Those who want to embark on SL projects, ask yourself what is the main reason for doing so, to serve the community or to serve your own portfolio?

Ok lar not saying as if I totally no selfish thoughts liddat. Just that I sort of 相通 abit. Its quite fun actually teaching this kids and playing with them.

Tmr teacher's day celebrations, not sure if I am going back to pri sch with yk anot. Pathetic sia only got the 2 of us from hci. Nvm go back own in pull ups, lol. Can finally do 2X liao, but duno why will have a spiltting headache everytime i come down. Just now around 8pm did until now still headache...zzz.

Results coming out tmr 1pm, hope i get a good msg this term.

Had Bio and Physics test today (after writing 作文 for chinese lesson), misinterpreted some questions...sian, hopefully still can do well, coz i knew that I really put in effort to study.



Last day of term 3 tomorrow, really need the 1 week break to relax and prepare for the last stretch of high school life. But even holidays also need to go back to sch for test and lessons, tons of EOY papers to do also. Nvm shall endure for a few more weeks then can enjoy liao, haha.



Tmr got some crappy CRAP CRPP survey to do, for the first period. Actually quite happy because can skip one lesson, but saw my timetable and realised that first period is IHC. I suppose I would be much better off slacking off during IHC lesson then doing the survey, which will most likely put my grey matter to better use.



Gotta go, time for procrastination.

was surfing failblog.org when i found this video..quite funny how that boy got owned.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZZXslsLDLs

Some Cuban guy got a lifetime ban for kicking the judge on purpose during a taekwondo match yesterday. Shows how rashness can get you into deep trouble. Never get medal nvm, still can try next time. Get a lifetime ban and your future is ruined. Want to do something? Think before you act.

If Clement's calculations are correct for the english test marks on ISP, my msg for this term is 1.78. First time that I got a sub-2 msg for term results since sec 1 till now. Shan't get my hopes too high though until it is confirmed.

The closing ceremony of the Beijing Olympics will be held tonight at 8pm. Time really passes quickly. Beijing prepared for this games for years (since it won its bid in 2001) and its over within 16 days. At least I will be able to focus on preparing for EOYs instead of being distracted watching the games on TV.

Thats all for today. bb

Sabbatical week is finally over! (heaves a sigh of relief). Had a tough time helping the sec 3s with the circuit boards today morning. Went to JC during reccess, and fishtank was spammed with people watching the semifinal table tennis match between Li Jiawei and Zhang Yining. It was a nice experience watching the match with so many people around, really felt the singapore spirit when everyone cheered and clapped whenever a point was scored. Eventually LJW lost, both in the semis and the bronze medal match. Lets hope that Singapore can improve on its medal count in 2012 London.

Watching the finals now, china vs china. Truly a match of the highest quality and standard. Shall leave my homework for after the match. Bye

OC coming up tomorrow. All the best to the part Bs who are participating. Bring back the 4th consecutive champions for HCINCC.

Just checked my IHE Exam result for the first semester on ISP. Got b3. Was quite angry with myself for forgetting the date of the exam. Totally went into a holiday mode after coming back from OB Mongolia. On the day I was preparing for training when my dad called and said that I forgot to take my exam. Rushed to the exam room 30 mins late and with nothing in my brain. Haha luckily my no 3 uniform bless me and I managed not to fail. 不幸中的大辛。

MSG 1.55 for this term if my english gets A1, even though it is not really possible. Just hope for below 2. =D

Sabbaticals are here...and are slack as usual. The first 2 days were quite boring for me, considering that the contents of our sabbatical are more or less restricted to Mrs Loi's format. Hopefully the next few days would be more interesting with fun practicals coming up.

Project's finals results out. Saw some projects which I really thought were deserving of A* but didn't get it. Bet it feels sad to not have all the hours of hard work put in recognised. Nvm, at least know that you had did your best and can answer to your conscience, better then some people who fake their way to success. Can smoke through once or twice, dosen't mean can smoke through forever.

Arrgh nvm..life is unfair.

Nigeria just scored one against Belgium as I am typing this. Gotta catch Argentina VS Brazil later. Hopefully Argentina can win.

I think I am addicted to the Olympic Games.

Some pics of the outing:







Group photo after movie













4D ppl with Max














Dinner at his home











4 sets of X-box...lol

Took a final photo with Max before leaving.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Watched the 100m men's race yesterday. Usain Bolt was amazing, it seems as though he won the race effortlessly. Break world record summore. Zai. Fastest man on Earth. Looks like he lived up to his name.

Fastest man in water is undeniably Michael Phelps, with 8 gold titles to his name, 7 WR and 1 OR. Aiya the Croatia guy lost to him by 0.01sec, abit 可惜.

Time to watch Table Tennis. All the best to singapore though I am not really confident of SG beating China.

First period, IHE, totally made my day. Got highest in class for IHE test. Long time since I got first for any test already, considering that my class are made up of no-life muggers. Not bad since IHE is also sort of a self-study subject.

After school, chionged finish my SRQ and went for Max's farewell outing/dinner. Went to Lido to watch "Journey to the center of the Earth". The female actress, Anita Briem storyline quite nice, worth a watch. Ren Jie dam ass, go clap at the end of the show, resulting in a chain effect and alot of peple started clapping. Went to Max's home after that for dinner and games. Went home at around 9pm.

Max, if you are reading this, I just want to wish you all the best for your studies at Boston College. Try to keep in touch and visit us often during your holidays. ^^

Singapore Table Tennis Women's Team won their semi-finals today, securing at least a silver medal, and ending Singapore's medal drought since 1960. Well done!

Aaron, Daryll, Elffred, Junan, Yisheng and Weijing going OB taiwan tmr, enjoy yourselves! OB courses are ownage! If there is another chance to go for such camps in the future, I would certainly go again.

Will post pics of today's outing/dinner when I get them from my friend's camera.

Happy Birthday Bertram! My brother and a great ASM of HCINCC! I have nothing but respect for him =) Hope you are touched by the mass spamming of SMS and tags on your blog yesterday.

Tomorrow, it will be the last day studying at HCI for Max, my friend and classmate in sec 1 and 2. All the best for your studies in the US!

Some good news. I got 19/25 for IHC, managed to scrape A1, which was not bad considering it had been a self study subject for me this whole year. Thanks Jaron for helping me print those thick stack of notes which are really useful, FOC summore. Thanks to Hongrun also.

Tmr is projects competition final. Good luck to all those who are presenting your projects. Regretted not doing another SMRP project this year due to laziness, now my SMRP grade is only A2. Miss SRC and the smell of LB agar and prawns..lol.

Heard on the news that Singapore table tennis team had made it to the semifinals. Please let us win a medal. ^^

Got back my english term test results today. Was one of the few to get A1 for SRQ but didn do well for essay part...Nvm, considering my essay was incomplete due to insufficient time, and it was as long as the SRQ. Did I mention that my writing speed is super slow? Well, shall change strategy in future, do main essay first, for both english and chinese.

Watching the olympic games, saw this czech swimmer named Tomáš Fučík. O.O

Off to dinner. Bye

Found this SAF joke on the net.

Warrant Officers, Specialists, and Enlistees:

REC - Really Enduring Camp in Tekong

PTE - Physically Trained Expert after Tekong

LCP - Lowest Confident Personnel in camp due to inexperience, also known as "Lan Chao Bing"

CPL - Cannot Play Liao because you are a senior NSF, also known as "Kao Beh Lang" as they always complain alot


SGT - Saying Goodbye Thank you, because you are at the end of your service

SSG - Showing Social Grace by asking people to call you staff instead of sergeant

MSG - Must Say Good no matter what your commanders so that you get your 1st epaulette on your shoulder faster

MWO - Must Watch Out for n00bs making mistakes and make them sign extra

SWO - Still Waiting Orders because you are somehow still lower ranked than commissioned officers even if you have loads more experience than them

Officers

LTA - Listening To Advice because your officer-commanding told you to do so and you cannot disobey

CPT - Call Please Thanks, too busy with work, no time to reply

MAJ - Must Always Joke so that people in SAFTI MI will recognise your "Leadership" and send you to command

LTC - Later Then Confirm because you have too many meetings to attend

COL - Content Over Leadership since you have already commanded so many people

BG - Better (be) Gone, so that someone can replace you...

MG - Media Glamour, especially if you are Chief of Army, pictures always taken for mass media purposes

LG - Life's good, nowhere higher to go, nothing to do also. Perhaps you can go into Singapore administrative services, the place where you can go into politics.

NDP parade yesterday was really nice. First time being watching the parade as audience, and helped take the video for them. Haha took quite alot of effort to prevent my hand from shaking, too nervous liao. Towards the end the camera battery finishing liao. Luckily i managed to take until they marched to the grass patch before the battery went dead.

Supporting Contingent performed equally well. Personally, I felt that the NPCC contingents are also improving alot over the years. Overall its a good thing for the school. Well done everyone.

Went to LT4 to watch the celebration after that. Was looking forward to PDS performance. The performance was quite screwed at the beginning IMO, but luckily it got better towards the end. I know its quite hard for you guys who are in the performance to rush to change and perform right after the parade. Nvm hope you guys can improve more in future.

Haha Ferris was bouncing our class basketball when it hit Kevin's leg then it bounced down the LT and dropped down to the hall. Hit some sec 2 boy I think(the ball, not me). The ball got confiscated and they had to go say sorry to the boys to get it back. lol.

Went to Aden's house for his birthday party after that with part Ds. Took bus 825 to his house. At one point there were no passengers other then us, then we talked cock with the uncle and even asked him if he could drop us at Aden's house. Haha new experience.

Reached Aden's house and played mahjong. Ate alot of food and drank champagne and vodka(lol 40% alcohol). The vodka was really strong. Some of us mixed it with sprite or fruit punch. Yu xuan's face was really red. Weilong's also. Yitkhai was abit drunk i think, kept on laughing and acting abit crazy.















Aden's home

















Yuxuan feeling high.


Watched Olympics opening ceremony over there also. It was really impressive. The coordination of those mass scale performances was near perfection. Sarah Brightman's voice also dam nice when she sang the theme song. Watched until around 11.30 before we went home. Luckily the bus that I taking havent end service. Really want to thank aden's parents for spending so much on the food, even go buy mcdonalds for us. Not forgetting his maid, who helped me to clear up the mess when I spilled my coke =.=

Watching the NDP parade as I am typing this post currently. One of the parachuters landed badly on his side. One of the Military Police guy also screw up his rotation during the PDS performance. Still dare to smile summore. The formations were nice though, especially when watched from the top.

For more pics of yesterday, refer to yitkhai's blog.

IHE and Chinese Common Test over today. Screwed up abit for chinese but nvm, at least the load on my mind is off now. Now can enjoy NDP parade/Beijing Olympics opening ceremony/Aden's birthday party for the weekend. Haha quite alot of things to look forward to.

Got back my maths test paper today. 44/50. Tremendous improvement from previous test, ok lar not much, like 3 times the score only. Ok so anyway its a great morale booster for me, even though the test was relatively easy compared to the first. Mrs Ooi wrote something encouraging for me on my paper for me, long time since I got any recognition from any teacher. Actually, after the test I was quite worried because during the test I accidently left my Maths testbook under my desk, open summore at the summary page of further trigo, with all the formulas on it. I was totally oblivious to it until she suddenly reached under my desk and closed the book. Wanted to go and explain to her after that but decided not to as I don't want to 越描越黑. As long as my conscience is clear.

Tmr NDP, shall go to school early to watch. Haha.

Woah, toughest day of the week is over.

Today was like the first time I photocopy paper until heart pain. Photocopied 3 chapters of geog notes to study for test and exam and spent like $3 for 90+ pages. Somehow ferris managed to print them for half the price. maybe auntie give him discount coz he shuai.

Watched the news just now. Some guy from Thailand killed a man to simulate the situation in the game that he is playing as he was too addicted to it. Turned out that yit khai also playing the game now on his psp. GG, must dissuade him from playing it anymore if not he will come and kill me one day.

Saw part cs doing PDS on the grass patch when I was about to go home. The formations look nice. Hope they can do well for ndp.

Looking forward to watching records challenge later. Hopefully after that I still can concentrate on mugging geog and chinese.

Bye.



P.S. Clement wrote this really funny stuff on his blog


Case Study: Association of Secondary Four Noilehpa Classes (ASFNC)

Success of ASFNC in promoting cooperation among member classes, which consist of Alpha, Bravo, Charlie and Delta.

ASFNC has set up its ASFNC Free Trade Area (AFTA), through which its members are encouraged to improve their bilateral diplomatic ties by engaging in trading and establishing Free Trade Agreement (FTA). Through such agreements, information can be traded freely among member classes, for the good of all nations. For example, just today, Beta has provided detail information on the strain of virus, Immuno Homo Corpus (IHC). This has allowed Delta to call an emergency meeting among Members of Parliament (MP), with its chairman leading the committee. In the session, they successfully brainstormed solutions to counter the impeding epidemic.

Congratulations ASFNC!

(I guess only the people involved will get the joke, unless your inference skill is dam pro)

Haiz...IHC test today, as predicted, cannot write finish. 2 essay questions, 12 mark and 13 mark. Both also need to write balanced conclusion, in 40 minutes. In the end I just finish writing the 3 points for each question, both no time to write conclusion. Max only can get L4...

Nvm whats done is done, have to move on and study for chinese common test and geog test on thursday. Arrgh I just hate having 2 test in a single day...both have to write so much summore.

Sabbatical training afterwards was quite fun, haha have free flow of materials to use. Tried our hands on all the practicals and familarise ourselves with it so that we can get more ace teach the students better.

Speaking about ACE, time to plan out how to max my ACE before term ends.

English: 10/10
Chinese: 7/10 (haven't included class presentation and newspaper cutting)
Maths: 10/10
Biology: 4/7 (havent add ICAS)
Physics: 3/7 (hopefully sabbatical can at least get 4 =.=)
Chemistry: 1/7 (havent add RTBSC)
IH: 10/10

Arrgh...desperately need chem ace...hopefully can find something to do before ace submission ends.

Bye, time to do homework.

Hi.

Another busy week ahead. IHC IHE and Chinese Common Test are coming next week. Hopefully I would be able to finish doing the questions, because normally I wouldn't be able to as I write very slowly. Sabbatical preparation also starts from tomorrow...the list of things to prepare seems scary.

No time now, need to mug for IHC test tmr. Bye

New month, new font colour^^

Just came back from watching "Money not enough 2" wth yitkhai and elffred. Movie total more then 2 hours long, but time passed very fast. Ha, Jack Neo really dam zai, never fail to make you laugh and cry at the same time. It highlighted alot of current trends within Singapore currently, thought-provoking yet full of wit at the same time. Rate it 4/5 (some scenes quite ridiculous and random). No spoilers, want to know go watch yourself =P

Quite tired now, so shall stop here. IHC test on monday, hope we all do well (with 4C's notes).

bb. good night
