I have a lot of nice sensible things I want to say. It's just that I don't always find the premise to do so. That's why I like MGMs I guess. It keeps my high down, and it's keeps my good talk UP.
I'm sorry about GMs. A lot of people= Jasmine forgets to shut up. But really I did mean the teddy bear rubber band thing. And the tape up the homework cupboard thing.
And I just get happy when I'm with the board. I just get very very very happy, cause I love what we do and I love my job and I love everyone.
Sorry world. I will try HARDER to not get too happy. It's annoying, even to me.

The yearbook is super thick. It's inspirational reading on its own. I mean, look at all the awesome award-winning people inside. And look at all the conferences and overseas trips and conventions they send all the pro student leaders and people to. It's kinda funny cause the most inspirational people aren't just those famous ones like Jane Goodall, but fellow schoolmates. Also known as seniors. People who study in the same classrooms as us, cheer in the same amphi as us, and sleep on the same desks as us. It kinda makes you think. There's more to being in this school than just being a student. There's so much more we can achieve, like these people did. And it's not just the leadership positions and awards, it's the differences they made and the legacy they're continuing as RGS girls. Wow. I feel like we have a lot to live up to. One day those people in the yearbook will be our very own batchmates. Wow.
My headache is coming back. Ow I thought it was gone. My mom says I'm gonna get sicker if I don't stop sleeping so late. I hope concert goes well.

OHNOOO I feel like my life is screwed again so WATCH OUT GINA cause you'll be sitting next to a crazy emokid tomorrow if I don't stop whining soon.
It's not worth emoing. It's not worth emoing. It's not worth emoing.
Maybe I should go talk to a sec 3 and listen to their complaints. Then I'll learn to appreciate my life better.

#2 I throw my rope best when I'm thinking about everything BUT gym.
#3 I'm zombie-ing through my life. It's like I'm there but I'm not there.
#4 I'm turning into an emo kid. Just ask my deskmate.
#5 I love my house. I love my house. I love my house. I love my house. I LOVE MY HOUSE RICHARDSON.
#6 I love 109 and 109 i/cs a lot a lot.
#7 I have PFT tomorrow.
#8 I have no confidence in my IPU any more. Just a gut feeling.
#9 My leotard is now my sole reason for living. And my jazzpants.
#10 I have no idea why I numbered everything.

PSL session was good, but I missed the discussions. Discussions were actually my favourite part of PSL sessions last year. I like discussions, I love MGMs and stuff like that. I just don't show it cause I look very dead as compared to when I'm hyper and crazy. That's my getting-seriouser look, NOT my bored look. I don't smile when I'm thinking too hard. I mean, who does?
But PSL session was still goood! I loved them last year, I love them this year. And most of all, I LOVE MY SEC ONES! They're an absolutely fantastic class, and the reason why I haven't become the petrified forest of Singapore. No, make that the petrified tree. I'M REALLY PROUD OF MY NINERS. REALLY REALLY REALLY. And they're soo sweet! They gave me this cute hallmark mug and stuffed it with notes! I added them to my note collection. (Seee, I keep all your words of encouragement okay!)
Food twister was the highlight of today! Try putting your hands in a jar of peanut butter, and your feet in a jar of kaya, and you see how it's done. Argh but it's so messy cause we forgot to put newspaper below the food! I think I would've been super freaked out if someone made me play too, because I'd hate to have to try to get rid of all the mucky stuff stuck onto me. But it'll still be fun I guess.
It was also good cleaning up after debrief. I think we (109 i/cs) really bonded while mopping the basketball courts. Like, what a way to bond! But yup, it was fun. MGM was good too, even though like I said, I look very blur during discussions. Just something I noticed today.
I WANNA JOIN PSB :)
Yay I finally got my new leotard and jazz pants! I wanted the one Ting has but they ran out of those in my size. Argh. Oh well, but mine is pretty too! Once again, COME WATCH GYM CONCERT!
What a nong nong post.

And sports fest is fun, okay, Yu Jia!
Hmm well actually I wished everyone was louder and that my throat didn't hurt so much. But still, good job everybody! Whoohoo Richard got second! Just like last year. But it doesn't really matter what we get for overall, cause we know that our house spirit is there and it's super strong and VERY LOUD. Watching mass dance was kinda funny. I mean, the dance was nice but it makes you wonder if you looked like that last year. Like "Woah, people could see me all the way over there?" But still, well done sec 1s!
I'm super proud of my fellow Richardsonians for showing so much house spirit! I was kinda afraid that you guys would have become un-enthu but you all DIDN'T! And I'm super proud of the sec 2s and Dharani for going for house dinner. Sharon said that house dinner was usually a house comm- sec 1 thing, but TRADITIONS CAN CHANGE RIGHT? (Think The Whale Rider).
It was great seeing the JC 1 house comm people again. Brings back fond memories of us when we were sec 1s. I MISS HOUSE PRAC. We should be allowed to go for fun, wouldn't that be great? But the poor house comm :( Ada was totally disgusted by the oneohonenians's sick comments and jokes. I don't blame her :) but I'm used to them.
Thanks you house comm! Yesterday was fantastic!

Is climbing up that social ladder
Still care about your hair and the car you drive
Doesn't matter if you're 16 or 35
If you didn't know, that's from Bowling For Soup's High School Never Ends.
I guess RGS is a very different school in the sense that you don't see so much of the problems the heroes/heroines face in chick flicks. (Where there are these evil cheerleaders and geeks who wear their pants up to their armpits and rebels smoking.) But we face a very different set of problems.
No prizes for guessing what.
I remember that day Irina (I think it was her) said that when you're Sec 3 you just feel like your whole world comes crashing down. And Shze Hui says that sleeping at 1am is very normal. And that answering every question in the Maths paper is Mission Impossible 4. And a whole bunch of other stuff I hear Sec 3s talk about. I feel like I have no right to complain about workload anymore. Can I just stay Sec 2 forever?
Right now I'll just enjoy being a Sec 2 while it lasts.

It was great today during MGM. We got to talk about problems PSLs face and it's good to know I'm not the only one who has sudden emo attacks. I like MGMs. They're like casual serious discussions. Thankew T & D!
JoHo is afraid of Mas Selamat but I don't think she's in danger cause she's so much taller than him anyways. Oh man I hope they catch him soon and put an end to all this drama. And so I don't have to see his face on posters everywhere I go. It's kinda freaky knowing there's a terrorist on the loose and Singapore ain't that big so you have a pretty high chance of meeting him. Not that it's a bad thing, because then it's easier to catch him. But everyone says he's already outta Singapore. You know, he's actually become like the laughingstock of the nation as well as a threat to the country. Just take a look at Actooby's tagboard.
----->
After MGM I went to eat ramen with Pris Chew and Jenny and Irina and we had a long conversation over lunch. Not boring but sane and interesting. Long and normal discussions are good. Random lame discussions get too lame after a while.
Example of a random and lame discussion:
A: Haha.
B: Haha.
A: Geog is so lame.
B: WHATever man you're so much lamer!
A: Don't argue with me man.
B: You're so lame you don't even let people argue with you. HAHAHA SEE, YOU'RE LAME!
A: That was lame. SEE, YOU'RE LAME!
See? I like long normal discussions, and I like lame ones only when they're funny.

But I think you should be happy too cause I used it longer than any other skin I used!
Ah well today was alright. Not too tiring I guess. And I liked the spicy chicken a lot even though it killed my tongue. But I'm just not so happy about a lot of things. PSL sessions are ending soon too. Actually I think PSL sessions actually do as much for me as they are supposed to do for the sec ones. It's like while I'm there conducting the sessions for them hoping they gain something out of them, I seem to be more alive than I am the rest of the week, and it feels good. Maybe it's because when you conduct those sessions, you know what you're there to do, and you really want to do it well, so you give it all you've got and you're naturally more enthusiastic. And I'm glad that I don't speak like a bimbo in front of the class as much as I did in the earlier PSL sessions. It just happens sometimes when I feel really self conscious. Oh no I'm gonna miss PSL sessions so much. It's like even though I'm still their PSL, we don't see each other so much anymore and I'll miss conducting those sessions and everything. I don't mind doing those proposals every week for the rest of the year actually. Plus, I'll be super low without PSL session every saturday. I already missed them a lot when we skipped 1/2 weeks? Ah well but I guess I'm not supposed to be stuck to them forever right? I mean, ultimately it's THEIR class and THEY are supposed to have learnt the importance of class bonding, supporting each other, etc.etc.etc. so they can work together and all and that's the purpose of PSL sessions anyways.
Training yesterday started off terrible. I was all weak from running up and down the basketball court during PE because I have adopted a terribly tiring and lousy strategy of following the basketball wherever it goes. My kua tiaos were horrible, like I haven't trained for 20 years. Probably not even 150 degrees yet. I was FORCING myself to jump but my body was stubborn and refused to cooperate. At least it got a bit better after a while.

Hello niners if you guys are reading this! I'm writing this post because I'm really proud of you guys because:
1. You guys were very enthu and participative yesterday!
2. You guys have BONDED as a class which is fantastic !
3. You're organizing your very own class outing!
Yay yay yay just when I was wondering how you guys were doing (since we haven't had a PSL session for quite a while). I was very very pleased with you all yesterday that you all are very enthu about your 109-ship. It's great that you are all proud of your class because you really should be and I'm sure your other PSLs will agree too! You all have really grown together as a class since your first PSL session and I'm glad.
Have fun at your outing and keep up the good work!

Since my dearest Ops rotation 1 friends haven't written their tributes to Ops rotation 1 yet, I shall lead by example. (What a brilliant idea!)
My Tribute To Raffles Girl's School Peer Support Board Operations Rotation One (Nice long no-abbreviations-used title)
Operations Rotation One was a lovely bunch of people:) and it was great working with them! Our first GM started off kinda awkward and only four people turned up cause it was held during the December hols. But we've had a lot of fun working together decorating the SLAC and singing together :) and during my time at Ops I had the chance to conduct an ice breaker with Cheryl Gatot which was lots of fun (but then I fell sick the next day and the doctor told me my throat was very red and swollen). So THANK YOU Ops for making rotation 1 lots of fun! And thank you JoOu for the cute shoelaces too!

FOUNDER'S DAY!
I think this year's founder's day was MUCH MUCH better than last year's. Not that last year's was boring, but because it's greek themed. Which is super cool, esp all those laurel wreaths. And I think our very ego form teacher did a good job :)
Seriously, what is it about RGS and foreign countries? Our motto's in LATIN, our school song's called from high OLYMPUS (which explains the greek theme) and Athena's at our gate, too. Okay so it's just that our school loves greek stuff, the latin part is started with RI and the Auspicium Melioris Aevi (?).
Back to founder's day, like I said, it was way cool this year, with all the greek statues and togas and wreaths and everything. Actually the statues looked kinda freaky, in a cool freaky way. Wu You is too tall! She was the statue with wings in the pretty dress.
Then it started raining after the opening speeches, but it was just a drizzle. The MCs told VIPs to proceed to the hall but then Mrs Hoo said we can just bear with a little rain because WE PROMISE TO GIVE YOU A GOOD SHOW like it was so cool everyone started cheering and it made me really happy. Maybe it's because it's more fun sitting in the Amphi than watching a live telecast (5 seconds late) in class.
Right I shall just summarise everything in one sentence: The performances were fantastic, the theme was fantastic, everything was good.
But I was kinda disappointed that the Arete cheers weren't scary or fierce like they were meant to be. And the Raffles cheers weren't loud enough. It started raining heavily right after the ceremony (we finished just in time!) and Wen Jun let me have a lick off her yummy Turkish ice cream during the reception cause I wasn't allowed to have any due to the fact that I'm not pro enough to perform and I'm not in PB.
I love my school :) And that's the reason why I wouldn't trade my Rafflesianship(and a lot of homework!) for the free time I had in primary school

Ahh alright I haven't been updating for QUITE SOME TIME already so I shall start with something that happened QUITE SOME TIME ago.
Inter-house nong jump!
Ok I was kinda mad at myself after the event but I guess it's another one of those times that I get mad at myself for things people don't even notice. Like that time during PSL session when I did the life story of Oprah Winfrey, and I was guilty guilty for 2 days.
Anyways I really really miss house prac and doing RICHARD cheers. Make that really really really really really really REALLY. So I was kinda happy and scared to be doing something for the house again. Me and Lynn were freaking out while packing our bags like kanchiong people. I don't even know if kanchiong can be used in this context but nevermind. I don't know, it was kinda funny seeing everyone in house shirts at the long jump pit again, brings back memories of house prac at the long jump pit at sec one.
Well I was much less anti-social this year, and I talked to the other jumpers and we freaked out together. And I think it was great that everyone cheered for one another regardless of house. And of course it was FANTASTIC to see Lynn and Steph again. Not that I don't see Lynn like almost everyday, but you get what I mean. But Steph doesn't remember me from long jump last year, she only remembers me as a T3SL (she was a T2). Sheesh :D
Poor Steph had phlegm so she sounded croaky and she had shot put too so she was shuttling back and forth. Hah it was really fun this year, with everyone more friendly and all. And then I taught Steph and Lynn the We're All In This Together dance, but now I forgot why. I was super happy and full of house spirit :) and also because long jump is fun! Well, it won't be fun if you do it everyday and train for competitions, but it's fun as an inter-house event.
Yay I think I've jumped a personal best, but it'll be scary competing with the sec 4s next year (hah i'll be competing with the people who taught me how to jump!) and yup I hope everyone had fun jumping!
I LOVE MY HOUSE OF BLOO

I didn't get to watch the wonderful items, esp the cute PSB Peer Support Family one! Oh well i'll wait for someone to put it on youtube.
So coool i met my sis's friend weiling from st nicks. It was fun begging people to take free curry puffs.
It was real fun sitting in the canteen after the ceremony looking at amanda kuan do dumb things with her stryofoam plate mask that she made by poking holes for eyes and a mouth. And yinleng is crazyyyyy about carly's brother. Who is 1 year old and very cute. She is waiting for him to grow up. Well ok her philosophy about age gaps can make sense actually. But still, she'd have to wait like at least 13 years. Ahha but she's soooo funny!
Concert prac is so fun :) i love the dance
You know i realise that i speak like a bimb when i speak in front of a big group of people without a script to read from because:
- When i raise my voice it can go really HIGH
- I say 10 "like"s in every sentence
I DO NOT normally speak like that ok!

Ushering is fun!
Oh but tuesday should be OK too. I don't mind mondays and tuesdays actually. I hate thursdays because 202 has 4 blocks in a row before lunch. There's GM this tues and i like GMs :) Sure hope ____ gets the award!
And art module will be over soooon! I don't hate it, but it makes me feel lousy because i'm bad at art. Oh and i don't think i really learnt much about how to improve either. Most of the stuff i learnt is about other people's art (like Picasso and the greek statues). Whatever, i'll stick to stick figures and doodles and live happily ever after.

I sincerely apologise for all the reading of emo rants you had to subject your poor eyes and brains to.
Thank you.
P.S I am fully aware that the sentence above is grammatically incorrect. However, due to my lack of pro-ness in the english language, i shall just leave it as it is as to avoid further breaking of grammar rules in the process of correcting it.

YOU CAN TAKE ME OUT OF GYM BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE GYM OUTTA ME
I WILL TRAIN.
SO THERE.
(disclaimer: the 'so there' is not directed at any of you out there. this post is supposed to be for me to remind me not to be lazy and to train by myself. and it's not anyone who took me out of gym, it's me. so i guess i'm talking to myself. weird.)
Happy cny and don't eat too much junk :D
Same story as last year teacher's day, security guard talks to you like you can't understand a word he's saying, everyone's restricted to only the canteen, and you don't know anyone there.
I found out WHY i didn't know any juniors in primary school. Except for liyana but that's cause she's asyiqin's sis. I actually attempted to ask mei yin's friends what time they were released from school and they IGNORED me like i wasn't there. Super irritated. Attempted again. Got ignored again, so i gave up.
Anyways gym's kung fu fighting was super nice :D I still love gym and i WILL train on my own. In fact, i'm gonna stick to a plan:
PE days: Run AT LEAST 3 rounds round the track in the morning. Unless there's homework to chiong.
Everyday: Yatui, 2 sets of fubeiji AT LEAST
Saturday: Run AT LEAST 3 rounds round the track before PSL session unless there's a meeting or something.
Friday: Go to the gym 45 mins before concert prac to train rope.
And THANK YOU SO MUCH to all the people who cheered me up today! Thanks for all your jokes, encouragement & hugs. Even if i didn't write your names here, it doesn't mean i've forgotten you guys and i'm so glad i know all you wonderful people :)

Friday, February 01, 2008
I've been acting kinda schitzophrenic since last week, and i'm sorry if i gave anyone the what's-the-meaning-of-life look.
Thanks for the free hugs, the advice, the encouragement, the leaf, the listening to me rant on and on about my problem. I really appreciate it and i love you guys loads and loads for being there for me. And thanks for putting up me even when i start being emo or teary.
RGym! I may not be there anymore but i will always be right there in spirit with you guys on the carpety mats doing the fujis and beijis. I will. I'll even continue doing yatui on my own so that when you all get discouraged you can think that jazzy is doing yatui too just like you all. If you need anyone to watch you all, or coach the sec ones, i'll do it. I STILL LOVE RGSRSG LOADS AND LOADS AND LOADS AND I WILL KEEP TRAINING ON MY OWN<3
I think i know the bestest people on earth. Thanks for being there for me:)

HOMEWORK
And everyone is sick now. Except Isabelle Lim. That's what she says.
BUT concert prac is fun! Yi Lin and Vivien have joined THE COOL CLUB :) Which is the name for our 2008 sec 2 and sec 1 batches. That's my favourite part of gym. The freedom to be nuts. Yeah.
EVERYONE COME WATCH GYM CONCERT IT'S GONNA BE FANTABULOUS! But i have no idea when it is.
Oh yeah and some company has invited Blooming Of Spring to perform for some Suntec Rocky whateverthingy next sat. Blooming Of Spring is the name of our ballet concert item, by the way. I didn't think it was that nice actually. Well anyways, that means more stalkers in flower costumes for me. Maybe since it's on a saturday i can use training as an excuse and go late so i don't have to be stuck backstage with them for so many hours.

Well it's kinda funny cause during RI 4 109 didn't cheer very loudly, but then in a matter of 3 days they suddenly became more enthu.
I know there are other very very loud classes but i shan't be upset cause all classes are UNIQUE right?
MOST ZANY WHOOHOO!
And no, for once i didn't cry. (Hear that, joey?) I didn't cry during 101 farewell party either, but that was cause i was only there for 5 minutes. Maybe it's partially cause i know there will be lots more PSL sessions after this.
Me and chat went to dingdei at house prac today. Ahahaha i felt so extra. But it was fun cheering for RICHARD again <3 <3 I love my house. I wanna go for every single house prac and cheer on the amphi steps again. They should make entire-house house pracs. That would be so cool.:)
Yay i love RICHARDSON and 109.08 :D :D
Wednesday, January 02, 2008
W-ell 109 wasn't very enthusiastic today during PSL session & icebreakers. They were kinda reluctant to move and stuck in little groups. But Anthea says that it's cause it's only the first day and they should warm up soon. Good to hear.
R.I. was fun fun fun! I love cheering :D I'm so glad XinEr gave us that scolding last year for not cheering cause in actual fact i really really wanted to cheer but then my classmates didn't want to so i didn't dare to cheer too loud. But after the long long talk everyone CHEERED VERY LOUDLY! So yay and we all lived happily ever after, cheering day by day.
As for 202, everyone is kinda sticking to their sec1 classmates. But i'm gonna have PATIENCE cause high I s lack patience like me sometimes so PATIENCE, girl! It's gonna be tough cause i'm so high today :D
Sunday, December 30, 2007
I had my first experience of being stalked yesterday. The little kids in flower costumes. Ok i regret teaching them the moose song.
I shan't bother to elaborate on the horrors of being stalked cause i have to go chiong a PSL session proposal.

Today was a fantabulistic day!
PSL session training was great :) T&D did a good job although the part about the mock PSL session was erm, kinda embarrassing but ahha we learn from it. Treasure trove is a super violent game haha. But it was a super fun game as well! Yay well the training was real useful so we know how to deal with bo-chup people and all even though i was a bad mock PSL. Like the time i said: How can you say that? You hurt her feelings! And then i was thinking : Whoops mistake alert!
Butt-writing is a humiliating form of punishment :D But i don't mind
After the training i went out with the JPSLs and SPSLs present while the PSLs were having their meeting. Went to Far East to eat ramen. When we all squeezed into the elevator (with a poor guy squashed at the corner) the erm, overload-alarm went off. Oops. I ordered a Healthy Mushroom Ramen and then i wanted to pay my $4 so i said: Muo Gu De to the cashier person and then my evil batchmates laughed cause they thought the way i said Muo Gu to the cashier was funny. Well it was :)
The SPSLs eat much faster than us. They ordered after us and yet finished like 10-15 minutes earlier? That just goes to prove my theory that as you get older you can eat faster. So haha my dad can't say that i eat to slow anymore cause how can i compare to him? He's 33 years older.
After our lunch meeting me and Nadia and Shao and Elaine and some SPSLs went to Lido to watch I Am Legend. Elaine couldn't watch though. She had table tennis training. So we went to Lido and there was a PRIVATE SALE at Isetan. HELLO IM NERDZ AND IM PLAYING BOGGLE. Then Laura made me stand in front of a 27 Dresses movie poster and let her take a picture of me. Haha.
Sat around for more than an hour before buying the tickets. Then some PSLs came to join us and i ended up sitting in between Chow Yue and Nadia. There were so many of us PSB people wearing the same shirt people must think we're from some sort of tour group. Well it was super fun watching the movie with so many people you know. Then everyone was clutching onto each other and then at the scary parts everyone can gasp and scream together.
And that was why today is a fantabulistic day. :D

We were back from the airport after seeing my dad off and when we entered the house we found Rabby sitting on the yoga mat. So my mom went "Come and look at Ah Boy! So cuuute!" And then we all went and gave Rabby lots of pats and all. But that's not the weird part. Gushing over Rabby is very normal.
Then Dong went and got some of Rabby's favourite food -pellets- and this is where the weird comes in:
He didn't go running for his food.
Nope he just sat there even more gong than Bebe Yip (:P) so we knew something was seriously wrong with that bunny. So mom took the whole container of pellets over and put it right in front of Rabby's face. But he still didn't move. So naturally everyone PANICKED.
The rest of the night (or rather, superduper early morning) was emotional and sad and all. We thought that Rabby was sick or something cause he just kept changing spots to sit in like a dead slug and my mom was the saddest of us all. She even said that if Rabby died she would never get another pet again.
Next morning:
Mom: Wake up lah.
Me: What time is it?
Mom: 12
Me: Oh man.
Mom: Rabby is normal again leh! I checked on him at 6 and he was acting normal. I'm gonna go give him veggies.
After giving veggies to Rabby:
Mom: Rabby is really fine now cause he attacked me for the veggies as usual.
Me: See, toldja he was just tired.
So now that all this drama is over we have concluded that Rabby was just being an emorabbit and there was nothing wrong with him in the first place.
Sunday, December 23, 2007
I'm gonna be in 202 next year! Actually i think 1/3 of the people in 202 next year are from 101. But it's kinda sad cause i heard that lots of cliques form in sec 2 due to people only sticking to the people from their sec 1 classes. So i'm determined not to be one of them. So slap me if i do.
And i'm a 109 i/c next year :D :D :D Yay i can't wait to see those niners. If i'm lucky, they'll be just as enthu as dear 101. I love 101 loads and loads and loads. <3 And i hope i'll like 202.
*Clears throat* To all 202ers out there, here's to a great year! *Clinks glass with no-one*

Tomorrow is reporting day:) i can see my junior from SPS. maybe. She's dong's friend's sister and i played maple with her before. Haha. But i've never seen her. I think this is the first time i'm looking forward to school reopening. Not that i haven't been to school for a long time. During my time in SPS, holidays mean not entering school for the entire month unless there are any camps. Well i haven't exactly been deprived of school this holiday. But i don't really mind:)
Good luck to all people not used to wearing heels for tomorrow! :D

Well it's back to singapore. Back to reality.
Singapore= reality
Not that there's anything really bad about spore but
Reality= you can't just laze around a naturally air-conditioned house in a foreign country and watch Boomerang cartoons all day
Jordan= laze around a naturally air-conditioned house in a foreign country and watch Boomerang cartoons all day
Singapore= reality
So that's why i say, back to singapore, back to reality
My natural alarm has been disturbed. In jordan bedtime was about 9.30 and i would just wake up at exactly 9.31 every day all by myself. I don't know why, it's just like that. And guess what time i woke up the next morning after i came back? 2.45pm. Then that night i couldn't fall asleep until the time my friends wake up during normal school days. The last time i looked at the clock before i fell asleep, it read 4.58am. I had gone to bed at around 1pm. It's getting better now. Last night the last time i saw the clock it read 3.50+. Haha.
Hope no one falls asleep reading my ramblings about my sleep patterns. :D

I dreamt that for sec 2, i have been transferred to St Hilda's sec for no apparant reason. And then in my dream i also joined tennis. Which makes no sense because how do i join RG tennis when i'm already in St Hildas. And there was also something about Li Lao Shi from SPS and a chinese file and PHOEBE YIP. Li Lao Shi gave us back our chinese files and phoebe yip was sitting beside me. Oh yeah and i also dreamt that i took a bus to a weird clubhouse of some sort on the was home from RGS and as i was leaving i got offered some free autumn festival food samples and there were mooncake rolls (that don't exist) which were really flattened mooncakes rolled up.
Some other day:
I dreamt about training. (!!!) I was half an hour late for training which was held in this really faraway place and i travelled there by go-cart. We did fu jis and i was told by Claudia that there was actually a grading system for training and that TingFang got a D for obedience and i was superduperly shocked, because how can laoshi give TingFang a D for obedience, that's just plain wrong. (And please TingFang don't be sad cause i don't think you'll ever get a D for obedience and who grades students for obedience now anyways?) And then after training i realised that i didn't have enough money to take the mrt or bus or anything home (which was far far away). But the good news is that i woke up so i didn't have to have any money to travel home.
And then there were also some other dreams about school but i don't remember all of them. There was also one about the people who went to genting and kamala was in it too.
We were all in a school concert and kamala was performing. She was supposed to play the piano for one item but we waited and waited and nothing happened. So for some reason i marched up to the stage and i went to the piano which was BACKstage and there was the piano score so i tried to play the song. It wasn't hard but i made lots of mistakes and i was scolding myself and thinking "What are you doing man?" to myself and when i looked down at the audience, there was KAMALA! And then when i finished playing i went to her and begged her to go play that piece again because i hated myself for taking her place and she was refusing and in the end she agreed. But it turns out she wasn't even supposed to play that piece in the first place and she was supposed to do some sort of dance and i was in shock because i made a fool of myself.
Well okay i know my mind is weird.

I'm in my dad's house in Jordan and i wish i had a house like this is spore. :( It's sooo pretty and there's a garden with a lime tree and orange trees cause the landlady loves gardening. The landlord & landlady live upstairs and we get the whole downstairs for ourselves whee. I could get used to this :DDD
Egypt was totally like how suzhou was when i was a weenie little girl! Except i could read the signs in suzhou but i can't in egypt cause everything's in arabic. And egypt is real sandy not like suzhou which is erm not sandy. And the egyptians just look like malays so it didn't feel very foreign country-ish there.
Think the great pyramids of giza are in the middle of a desert far away from the towns and cities? Think again. I could just see them from my the hotel room window, which also means they're in the middle of the town, and not in the middle of a desert far away from the towns and the cities. You get the idea. It was kinda scary there not because of the curse or anything or the smell of camel poop but because of the camel owners and headdress salesmen there. Because of their kinda bad reputation, people are avoiding them like the plague and you can see how desperate they are to get you to buy their stuff or ride their camels. The headdress salesmen will say something like "This is a gift. You make a good arab!" and they'll put a headdress on your head which kinda means like SOLD! and you're stuck. Actually i kinda pity them cause my dad says in egypt the people don't earn much.
I didn't go inside the big pyramid (the giant triangular one) but i did go into the teenie deformed one because the entrance fee for the big one is 100 egyptian pounds = 20+ singapore dollars per person (!!!) and the entrance fee for the teenie pyramid was F.O.C.. The entrance was a tunnel like a slide down but with rungs and it was really steep so dong went down on her butt. Wasn't much inside just a stone room. And N.E.R.D was too tall so she also went down on her butt. WHOO! [And yes, she wrote those last two sentences.] (No I didn't!)
The sphinx was just the sphinx, nothing else to be said. Who says! It was BIG NICE AND SANDY!
I went to the supermarket last night! Gee that sounds weird. It was fun heh.
And last night i had a dream about school oh wow i actually dream about school! HURRY UP WILL YOU I NEED TO DO THE ELLLLLL BLOGSKIN! Anyways it was the 20th of december in my dream so reporting day was on the next day. I was in SPS but chewlin and brenda and jiaying and juliet and mrs wee were in my dream and i don't know why they were in SPS. I was kinda worried in my dream cause i didn't know what to do for reporting day. Chewlin and brenda and jiaying came in when i saw they were in aeroplane with no roof in the concourse and ready to go for an overseas school trip and juliet was telling me that the aeroplane was about to take off so i had to stand behind the yellow line. (Sounds familiar? And the funny thing is that there really is a yellow line at SPS to mark that no food was allowed beyond the yellow line:) After that i ate some rice for lunch from stall 2. As i was leaving the canteen i saw mrs wee and some other JPSLs at the learning circle and it turns out she was giving them a briefing on what to do for reporting day and what we were supposed to do was to wear our vests (which i haven't gotten yet in real life) and those black shoes for special occasions and i was thinking now how am i supposed to get them when reporting day is just tomorrow?!? And then chewlin and brenda and jiaying were waving to me from the plane that just took off. And then i woke up and realised that we were probably gonna be told what to do on reporting day during pre-orientation training and reporting day was NOT tomorrow so i relaxed.

Wanna guess what it is?
Ok here's a clue
E.
Here's another.
D.
And another.
W.
And another.
A.
If you are as obsessed with the series as i am, the answer would have just popped up in your mind when i gave the E away. For those poor deprived people who HAVEN'T READ THE BOOK *gaspgasp*, here's the answer:
E D W A R D C U L L E N
aka the vampire dude from Twilight. I don't know how Stephanie Meyer could make him so... ALIVE. I mean, people, or girls rather, all over the world are drooling over a non-existent character that only appears in text form. Maybe that's what makes her writing so great. And, try as i might, i just can't even IMAGINE how he looks but just READING about him makes him real enough. So real, yet so fake. As in so unbelievable. So unbelievably perfect.
Anyways i don't know what else to say and i don't want this post to get too embarrassing in an over-obsessed-fan way. So all i have to say is READ THE BOOK! And let yourself act like a daydreamy despo for awhile. It's alright. Me and the rest of the fan club would understand. :D

Anyways genting was ok, not exceptionally fun, but ok. It's partially my fault because for some reason i decided to be super-emo those few days and i was like
h
g
i
h
then
l
o
w
and ah well i found the flashing lights all over the place in the indoor theme park both annoying and depressing. Annoying because they were FLASHING LIGHTS and depressing because, like the CMPS people say, they were SUCKING loads of electricity away. Nerd was super annoyed with me for being such a wet blanket on the first day, going : I feel so emo man! and whining and everything. I mean me, not Nerd.
And during the trip, i found out that i have a fear of _____. Maybe it comes with being in a girl's school. AND i also found out that i feel insecure when
#1 I'm walking first in the line
#2 I'm not holding anything
#3 My hair is not tied up and i'm not at home, even when my hair is neat
#4 I'm wearing that pink sweater i wore at PSLTC. Funny how i felt ok then, but not now.
I don't think there's anything seriously wrong with me though, i don't go nut when i'm not holding anything, i just don't feel safe. Maybe like how high S people need security all the time.
This is if i start blabbing about DISC stuff again. When i took the DISC test i was like OHWOW so fascinated so i guess i have to at least explain what i talk about to people who didn't take the test before because i think you're gonna have to bear a lot more of that stuff.
DISC are different personality styles and the DISC test shows you an analysis of your personality. I took one at I.O. and another more detailed one at PSLTC. Nerd took one just today for some career guidance thingy.
D= Dominant, direct, decisive
I= Influential, interactive, interested in people
S= Steady, stable, secure
C= Correct, controlled, compliant
Guess what i am!

Someone's back from PSLTC! And it was superduperly fun and enriching. :D
First of all, i just want to apologise to all the peeple i tried to (key word: tried to. meaning not necessarily succeeding in) comfort after the EYAs. Because during the counseling training, Ms Rona Tan was telling us about how NOT to counsel, and i am very sorry to say that i have done a lot of those stuff, eg. talking more than the counsel-ee. Yupp so sorry if any of you guys feel worse after my 'counseling sessions'. I'm really really sorry.
Ok back to PSLTC. Like i said, it was really fun and i still got to learn new stuff. AND i got to make lots and lots of friends! Like my SHIPMATES:
Ship Ahoy
Brenda is the high D in the ship, so she volunteers a lot and lots of times she takes the lead and she is not shy to contribute to the ship! And she sings canto opera really well too!
ChewLin was the sensiblest and sanest person left after SerYee and Sam left. And she is a great emo-er during the performance. "And you, you're just a bimbo!"
Desiree was kinda not feeling well, but she still contributed loads to the ship during the camp and she always has ideas! And she was both insane and sane, and it's really hard to strike a balance between the two, you know!
Janne is nice and very obsessed with Violet! " If only Violet were here, she'll know what to do!" Just kidding, not really, that was just part of our concert item. And her name is super cute. [JAN-NE] Just like her!
JiaYing is very funny esp when there's Nadia or the red crossers around. No offense, i just found you guys really cute when you all greet her :) Not including Nadia, cos Nadia doesn't greet her.
Samantha is very sweet and nice and also a lil' bit shy. And even though she didn't take the DISC test, we think she's a C so yes, we need extremely sane people in the ship like her too!
SerYee, the poor girl was not here for part 2 but after meeting her during part 1 i got to know her as a quiet girl but also very nice!
Ah so that's about it, my wunderful shipmates in a nut shell, but no ship's complete without
Facils
and the ones that are in this particular ship happen to be
Becca is super nice and i think the white specs make her look very cute and now whenever i think of her my brain associates her with GREEN shorts haha. And she taught us the beep-beebep-beep-beep little game!
MeiJia, the funny girl who loves food but is super thin! And she hate hugs, bad move telling us that, because we decided to force her into a group hug during initiation and unfortunately for her she wasn't armed with a badge to poke us with. And she draws well too!
Sharon is superhuman to be able to be the camp commander but still pay us the attention we need. I think she'll make a fantabulous RICHARD capt cos she's so nice! And she's both sensible and funny!
And there are many other PSLs who i have made friends with like duh, and they are all super nice and without them, camp wouldn't be fun, because what camp where there are no people be any fun right? Thanks for being great PSB erm mates! And MOST MOST importantly we have to thank our wunderful SPSLs for organising this camp!!! And Ms Rona Tan for training us in very important stuff that if i had not learnt i would cause a lot of damage to my sec 1 class. (yikes!)
Thanks to JeanHui's tuition teacher's squash toilet story, now whenever i go to any toilet, i drag my sister along to stand outside. Haha no just kidding, but i get this creepy feeling whenever i go to a room with a mirror in it. ~.~
Can't wait for reporting day!

What is my purpose of my existence in this world man? Apparantly i'm supposed to be a thing for my creator to use to tell other people stuff, but oh yes guess what, my %&!*&^ creator updates me like, once in a thousand years? And even when she does update me, most of the time the stuff written on me is rubbish. Like this post. Because in case you haven't already guessed, she has no idea what to blog about so here she is pretending to know what i'm thinking. Whatevverrr.
Ok so it's MY TURN to talk.
#1
Last week of school.
I don't wanna be sec 2! I wanna stay in 101. I hear in sec 2 there will be lots of cliques. :( Sad reality.
BUT
Next year i get to make a sec 1 class bonded like how my PSLs made 101 so bonded and enthu! Although i'm not sure if it is possible for another class to be as enthu and ONEOHONE! But i shall try!
#2
BAKESALE!
I get to see my dear t3s again! And bake muffins!
ALRIGHT LISTEN UP EVERYBODY: BUY OUR GOODIES OR YE SHALL GET IT FROM ME.
But seriously, they're super duper yummy.
#3
PSB CAMP!
Yay PSB camp! [2nd & 3rd nov] Although honestly i think Ship Ahoy is still at the 'i know your name' part, not yet at the 'WHOOHOO WE ROCK MAN!' stage, as in, we're still not A GROUP. We're definitely a group, but not really A GROUP. D: Nevermind. Maybe things will get better during part 2?

The picture is cut off, but here's the missing part :I will STAND UP AND SPEAK OUT AGAINST POVERTY on 17th October 2007. Please join me. (And then the 'please join me' is supposed to be hyperlinked to http://community.livejournal.com/lacafetiere/2405.html)
It's the day for RGS to STAND UP AND SPEAK OUT AGAINST POVERTY! Y'know it's real great that students in RGS organise meaningful events, really.
Yay i'm so proud to be an Rafflesian! (clapclapclap)
Anyways
Yupp i think that it's real important that we bring this issue to the attention of world leaders. The fact that half the world is living in poverty is not to be ignored.
"The promise to end poverty inequality and hunger. The promise to stop children dying from preventable diseases. The promise to ensure basic education for all children, particularly girls. The promise to stop women dying during pregnancy and childbirth. The promise to provide water and sanitation and to protect the environment. The promise to provide more and better aid, fair trade and debt cancellation. The promise to achieve these goals by 2015. The promises that some of them [world leaders] have not kept." (taken from inet)
THE WORLD MUST STOP BREAKING PROMISES. PROMISES LIKE THIS. THE PROMISE TO HELP FEED THE STARVING, MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE FOR THEM.
(Just like the promise should be kept to bring co2 levels down to 1994 standards. But that's a different story.)
So STAND UP AND SPEAK OUT AGAINST POVERTY!

It's me! Annette!
YEAH RIGHT.
ANYWAYS
EOYs are officially overrrrr! Whee :D This is as good as post-PSLE, only better cos we don't have lessons. BUT there's still training so yeah i can't go home early.
THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD TO:

3. Drama night!
4. I don't know, just the post-EOYs activities?
Woah i can't belieeeve i didn't update my blog for more than a month already. Before this i had a million things in my mind to blog about and now my mind is just -BLANK-. Happens every time, so you see why my blog posts are all so randomish and i-don't-know-what-i'm-talking-bout-just-filling-up-spaceish. Great i shall stop wasting time trying to blog and go waste time on facebook instead.

"I'm tellin' yeh, it's outta order!"
"I know, man, that's why I'm orderin' from it! To give it some orders!"
"But it's outta order! As in it's like, spoiled!"
"Yeah, ah know it's spoiled, and it's also outta order yeh, so i'mma solvin' one problem at a time!"
"But its a machine! You don't talk to a machine!"
"But its still a...thing on the earth, man! A brother!"
"You know, ah think yeh should go to the I.M.H."
"Do THEY sell burgers there?"
"Yeh!"
"Ah dunno, man."
"JUST GO! It's very nice, yeh see, I.M.H. stands for I M HAPPY!!!!"
"Hmm, ah dunno."
"JUST GO!!!"
"Nah, ah don't think so, when there are people like you yellin' there."
Being the superbly kind-hearted people we are, we bakers decided to give the Richard house comm BROWNIES! But they didn't like them. Oh well at least we know, now, or we'll have an angry mob running after pitch forks demanding for their money back. Nevermind, Tan Ying Xin says she knows how to bake brownies (which i don't ) so maybe she'll know what's wrong with ours. Anyways HOMEMADE MUFFINS ROCK! Cos i really never tried baking them before, only cookies. And considering that there were only me and Rachel there baking 'em, i think we're pretty good muffin-newbies! I didn't try the cookies, but they sure looked good, and i only tried the first batch of brownies, and i think they were ok only they tasted too much like cake. Woohoo but i'm gonna be baking lots more after the EOYs to supply for the rest of the hungry+sweet-toothed RGS population!

HAIRSPRAY ROCKS :D
But i can't blame Tingfang for being too creeped out by John Travolta to watch it. I went through the whole movie thinking that he was a girl! Actually my mom already said: It's a man leh! during the movie, i thought she meant Edna SOUNDED like a man, because, yeah, i thought he was a girl. Anyways, regardless of the fact that J.T. is weird in the movie, HAIRSPRAY ROCKS. It's got great songs, great acting, great dancing etc.etc.etc. and apart from that it's got an AWESOME MESSAGE. See, in the movie, only white people get to be on TV when the TV station gets rid of 'negro day', the only day when the blacks get to be on TV, and the good guys in the movie are fighting for INTERGRATION not DISCRIMINATION because it ain't fair, yeah? So WATCH IT and think about the MESSAGE and your attitude towards other races. Cos even today, i see people showing prejudiced attitudes towards people of other races unknowinly, so yeah, i think it's really important that we DON'T DISCRIMINATE :D
Boo hoo SL term is over :( Actually i'm happy that i don't have to go up to people saying: er... your name tag's not on and i don't have to stand at the gate like a scarecrow anymore in the mornings. BUT i'll miss the T3SLs loads and loads <3 and the SLICks and just the whole SLism thingy.

Decorated the gym with crepe paper from 8 to 9. Wenjun stood on a pile of mats and stuck the balloons up cos she had the SEXAYIEST and longest legs among the people already there. When laoshi came we turned up the music and stomped our feet to pretend we were the "xue zhangs" practising for the Tday dance. Which doesn't make any sense cos wh on earth would we perform AFTER teacher's day but anyways laoshi doesn't know, so whatever. Laoshi didn't scream or anything when she saw the party, just went SMILEY SHOCKY SMILEY. Truth or dare -or shi hua huo yong gan de shi (bad translation, but she understood)- with laoshi was really fun. We got to learn A LOT about her <3 life ahemahem and GASP she turned her BF's proposal down oh sob :( Poor Miao was forced into confessing a LOT too, even by laoshi.
Laoshi: Ni xi huan ni de nan peng you ma? (Do you like your BF?)
Miao: Wo mei you nan peng you!!! (I don't have a BF!!!)
And I had to propose to a pillar and sing ABC doing a handstand against the bar. Claudia was really funny. She had to stand outside the gym and yell: KISS MY ___!!! in both english and chinese (QING WO DE PI GU!!!) just so laoshi could hear. Aren't we evil?
After games we decided to stand on the mat pile and scream and wave at the people outside the school. Only a few nice ones waved back and anyways most people didn't see us. Blah.
HAPPY COACH DAY. JIAO LIAN JIE KUAI LE.
Saturday, August 25, 2007
Prac today was really fun cos i finally learnt show me da $$ :)
And training was just a curtain away so i can stick my head in and say hi anytime i want. Not a lotta people went for training lah so laoshi let them slack. Melmiao was really nice and helped me re-choreo the ribbon part again. And i found out i wasn't supposed to point the ribbon downwards. I was supposed to point it upwards hehheh.
I'm watching CSS 2 now. GO ZHENGNING GO! :D
Yeah actually this is like the FIRST time i'm watching? Must support fellow Rafflesians :D

Narrator: At the principal's office
101ian: EXCOOZE me PWINCIPAL, but do you know where TWREE SIXTAIN is?
Principal: (looks stunned. signals 101ian to come closer)[whispers] Thereain't no TWREE SIXTAIN.
101ian: Oh! Well how sillaye of me! Ok, off i go now. To find TWREE SEVARNTEEN!
Note: THIS SKIT IS NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY. 101ians aren't really that dumbish. Really.

My abs are so weak. I have NO abs. Last time, i could still complete 30 fujis quite OK-ly, but now it's like i have to torture myself like crazy just to do it. I'm getting weaky weaky weak. And i can't skip rope. During june trainings, i got used to the fact that i can't escape skipping and i think i improved, cos i didn't have to stop very often. But now i'm lousy lousy lousy at skipping again. Bleh.

#1 Maths PT to hand in.
Oh mannnnnnnnnnn. I'm gonna flunk. Mrs Chia gave feedback to the draft and 90% of the stuff needs improvement. I hate PTs. I really do.
#2 Chinese SA
Hmm, not too bad. SAs are more bearable.
#3 GYM COMPETITION!!!!
I just hope I don't get tangled in the middle of my kua tiao guo sheng again. *shudders* OK that would be horrible.
There's the good side to #3 too.
Tuesday: Excused from class at 11am
Thursday: Excused from a whole day of school
Friday: ??? Kinda forgot. Me blur.
OK I shan't complain too much cos the upper sec people have it even worse. Eeps poor them.
Sunday, July 01, 2007
And my seniors (and Cailyn and WenJun) were so sweet! They were cheering us the whole time even though we were screwing everything up real badly. And Cheryl Christine and Hazel also helped us practise later and you know, I think we actually learn MUCH faster with them teaching. <3333333

Me: I wanna go buy socks!
Lynn: Yeah I wanna buy too!
I pick up my wallet and head to the door. Lynn starts talking about the Tessa your Asset thing and writes her name on the board backwards. We totally forget about our mission and everyone starts trying out writing their name on the board too! Totally what Ms Picca would call digressing. Or is it diggressing? Whatever.
Soon the poor whiteboard is covered with this:
Lynn=Nnyl (Ny-yl)
Jasmine=Enimsaj (En-neem-sarge)
Joanne=Ennaoj (En-na-oj)
Charmaine=Eniamrahc (En-niem-rac)
Ting Wei= Iewgnit (Unique)
[btw, the word in the brackets is the pronounciation, and Ting Wei thinks because her Iewgnit is pronounced unique so she is unique!]
10 minutes later:
Me:(suddenly remembers mission) Erm, can we go get our socks?
So Lynn and I set off on our long journey to the PB room, on the way, when suddenly, we see... a KILLER BUG ahead.
Lynn: And I shall slay thy evil weird buggish thing!
( Takes out sword and kills the bug heroically.)
Nope, that's not what happened. All we did was run past. (Unheroically) And nope, Lynn doesn't own a sword. So anyways at the koi pond, we meet Mr Lau and Lynn tells him about the report books still in class and we turn back to take the report books from class(passing the killer bug again).
Back where we started
Ting Wei : Ello Mr Lau!
Me: Ting Wei said Ello
Ting Wei: No, I said Hello
Mr Lau starts trying to remember which cartoon Ello came from.
Mr Lau: Tellytubbies!
Me: No, Tellytubbies go Eh-oh!
Ting Wei: I used to sing that song to go to sleep
Lynn: Again! Again!
Me: Oh I hate that one.
After all the Tellytubby talk, me and Lynn take report books and walk to the koi pond (Again!) and go up to the staffroom where Mr. Lau takes over the report book-carrying. (And the killer bug was gone then!)
After finally buying the socks and returning to class:
Me: Our quest for socks!
Lynn: Is COMPLETE!
The end of the long long quest to buy socks :)

First time she recited her favourite 'densely populated country' fact:
Dong: Did you know that Monaco is the most densely populated country in the world?
Me: Ok.
Second time:
Dong: Did you know that Monaco is the most densely populated country in the world?
Me: Yeah.
Third to millionth time:
Dong: Did you know that Monaco is the most densely populated country in the world?
Me: Whatever.
Million and one time:
Dong: Did you know that Monaco is the most densely populated country in the world?
Me: (screams) AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Megan: Well what was your door doing under my bucket?
(Guy drumming to audition for Drake's band)
Drake: Dude that was good! Could you do that a little more up-tempo?
Guy: (yelling) You called me fat?! ARH!!!!!
(Guy punches hole in the wall)
Josh: ...and then she asked me to remove all the green gummy bears, then she suggested I do some sit-ups!
Drake: That's ridiculous
Josh: Yeah it is!
Drake: Who doesn't like green gummy bears?
Drake and Josh jokes are so funny and random :D

Parkroyal penang ROCKS ok? Esp. the water sports. I tried banana boating, jet skiing and parasailing. The beach is supposed to be like super duper there but I don't see what's so great about it. Quite ordinary, but 100000000 times better than Sembawang beach, that's for sure
And over the 2 weeks of holidays, I have developed severe brain rot and homework phobia. I have the following homework NOT completed:
1. With Great Pressure(as quoted from dear AUDREY)
2. 1/2 of Maths PT individual
3. A few fake Lit journals that I have to write
4. A few lit and eng worksheets to file
Gotta buck up on homeworking.

It's pretty much the same every time I come here. All we do apart from eating and sleeping (a lot) is:
1. Shop
2. Play com
3. Math PT
4. Stone
Oh man when I go back to Spore I have got a LOT of catching up to do cos I haven't started on With Great Agony (as quoted from dear LYNN) yet. Die die. Oh well at least there's a com here so I can force myself to do Math PT. Oh no D&T not yet touched and my wire mesh in still in my desk in RGS J101.
ARGHs once again.
I miss rblading like loads and loads and loads. Last year after PSLE the LEGENDS and I went like every non-raining day. And now we are flooded with so much homework we haven't gone since, jan or feb?

Today dailaoshi concluded our last attempt to do the routine smoothly like that (translated) : that was horrible. And then she added : but it was an improvement. Ohno ohno ohno. Why us? Why us little inexperienced sec 1s going to face the sec 2s of IJTP and SMGS and the sec 1-former-p6-gymmers of SNGS??? We are trying our best but the task of clinching at least 3rd is really DAUNTING.

Pheebs was like ultra gong! She just sat there and looked blur and sleepy haha. Well, maybe she's right. Maybe she should be Patrick instead of Mrs Puff cos she is as GONG as patrick! MUAHAHAHAHA. Dong was really bored that day and decided to give us Spongebob Squarepants nicks and she labelled me as PATRICK. Bebe ended up MRS PUFF. Leko became SPONGEBOB and Dong is PEARL. Haha that is so random.
After tuition Pheebs and Leko came to my house and we had a TEA PARTY! Okay, not that sort of TEA party with china teacups etc. etc. etc. but a party where you eat cakes and the tea part comes in cos we were drinking yeo's chrysanthemum tea. Afterwards we just did randomer stuff like cushion fighting and well, here I am, blogging. :D

Once there was a woman whose rabbit given birth to 6 baby bunnies
This was obviously bad news because she went around the whole neighbourhood telling all the aunties the story of how her husband was angry cos he didn't want to keep so many baby rabbits (they already had 3) and she doesn't know what to do.
One particular aunty was very helpful indeed, and she decided to help find people who could adopt the rabbits. She managed to find 5 potential owners. Yay problem solved :D :D :D
We all expect this woman to be happy and grateful, don't we?
Well surprise, surprise, she wasn't. She didn't even want to give the rabbits away, all because of this lousy selfish reason:
Betting on the rabbits' birthday won her some 4D money
Terrific, huh? One day she's sobbing at your doorstep begging for help, the next she doesn't need your help.
Tsk. Tsk.
RGS has this problem: too many CCAs, too little space. It's not like the school is too small or anything cos I've seen smaller schools (but it's not very big either). It's just that sometimes we have like NOWHERE to train properly and end up in the drama room, esp since it's SYF year and all the performing arts are real busy
Not that it's their fault, I mean, even on normal training days we only have that dance studio aka gym cos the CCAB sorta kicked us out end of last year for some reason yeah. I don't mind training there actually, even if we do have to take bus/taxi after school.
Poem Ms Picca used to describe 101!
The Bagel
David Ignatow
I stopped to pick up the bagel
rolling away in the wind,
annoyed with myself
for having dropped it
as if it were a portent.
Faster and faster it rolled,
with me running after it
bent low, gritting my teeth,
and I found myself doubled over
and rolling down the street
head over heels, one complete somersault
after another like a bagel
and strangely happy with myself.
Ms Picca says that she picked this poem for 101 and 103 cos we are similar in the way that we are both lively classes. Yay! ENTHU's the word!

Tell me what’s wrong with society
When everywhere I look I see
Young girls dying to be on TV
Won’t stop 'til they’ve reached their dreams
Diet pills, surgery
Photoshoped pictures in magazines
Telling them how they should be
It doesn’t make sense to me
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what’s going on?
Tell me what’s going on
If you open your eyes
You’ll see that something is wrong
I guess things are not how they used to be
There’s no more normal families
Parents act like enemies
Making kids feel like it’s World War III
No one cares, no one’s there
I guess we’re all just too damn busy
And money’s our first priority
It doesn’t make sense to me
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what’s going on?
Tell me what’s going on
If you open your eyes
You’ll see that something is wrong
Is everybody going crazy?
Is everybody going crazy?
Tell me what’s wrong with society
When everywhere I look I see
Rich guys driving big SUV’s
While kids are starving in the streets
No one cares
No one likes to share
I guess life's unfair
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what’s going on?
Tell me what’s going on
If you open your eyes
You’ll see that something
something is wrong
Is everybody going crazy?
Can anybody tell me what’s going on?
Tell me what’s going on
If you open your eyes
You’ll see that something is wrong

Just today, after open house, I was drinking a milo outside NTUC at toa payoh central, and there were these people asking for donations.
I saw that 9 out of 10 people just completely ignored them and walked on.
What is wrong with these people? What is wrong with the world?
I'm really digusted.
There are people out there who need money more than you do.
There are people who are sick, there are people who are starving out there, there are jobless people.
The least you could do is make a donation. Why don't you just stop and think, why NOT help someone in need? Erm, it's called COMPASSION. Try it.

Not really looking forward to it actually.
Just not in the mood for the hols.
Mr Wong is not teaching us anymore.
We had a farewell party today.
I was kinda sad actually.
He was a nice teacher.
Only sometimes 101 gets really talkative during Chi and I can't really hear him.
The day we heard about him leaving, he just wrote 最后一周 on the board and Alanna said :"老师,你要退休了啊?"
And he nodded.
101 was more quiet than usual that lesson.
I guess we're all gonna miss him.
101 did great for spring cleaning today!
Really, I see the class is a LOT cleaner.
Good work guys, keep up the enthusiasm!
Did I mention how PROUD I am to be in 101?
We were like the FIRST class to get the house spirit going.
I remember, one of the first house pracs, when we were doing Always Striving, 101 cheered so loud that Becky made us stop for a while so that they could hear 106 and 111's individual loudness.
And during orientation camp, we really were one of the loudest that day in the canteen during lunch when we were playing bomb, I remember.
So proud to be a 101 ian.

"Deduce whether substances A and B are acidic or alkaline"
There was the litmus paper, screaming out " USE ME!"
But did I notice it? Oh no, I was just too blur to realise that this was SPA, not a theory test, and I didn't need to look through the whole worksheet to deduce what A and B were when I could just get a sheet of those red and blue papers to tell me the answer.
So I looked through the whole worksheeet to deduce what A and B were.
And guess what, I got both wrong.
Why can't they invent talking litmus paper??

Quite slacky lah, today.
Only 2 hours cos there was some misunderstanding. Tang laoshi said 7 30 to 9 so we thought, okay training ends at 9
Actually after that we still had training normal time 9 to 12 but then everyone already told their parents training ends at 9 so they had to go home.
Quite wasted lah, training only 1 and a half hours then go home
Oh well

Publicizing:
Ran around the school begging peopleg people to buy tickets to the performance.
Pauline and LiMei were waving their ribbons and running from the KS Chee to the spiral staircase and several of us stood at the top and yelled SUPPORT RHYTHMIC GYM!!! to the people below and they just erm, looked amused.
PA stuff:
Me and TingFang and Claudia and Sarah were doing the PA stuff at the control room above.
The first performance we really screwed.
At the first track, there was a song dedication to Ada from her mother and the song started blasting in the control room so we couldn't hear when to press stop so me and Sarah ran to the Hadley booth and told the capt to turn off the songs in the control room and they did. Thank you Hadley!!!
And during the starting of the Dajiti routine song, the volume was too soft so we thought the song wasn't on and we panicked.
Then when we finally figured out the prob and restarted the song the poor Dajiti has been in the starting position for really long already. Sorry!
The other performances were ok. Performances awesome as usual.
Training:
After ORA then there was training from 2 to 5 and we had to shoo some RJC people out of the hall and mop some of the hall floor cos we didn't want the mats to be dirty.
Lao shi made us do paos while she was teaching the dan rens and we paoed and paoed until we were like paoing machines and poor Claudia had to say: Ready, one two three go! like a gazillion times.
After all the packing, Cheryl decided to bring us on a GYM FIELD TRIP!!!
To class 304.
Oh and Ms Koh gave us this chewing gum from China and Cheryl didn't know what to do with it so she gave it to me and I'm gonna bring it every training cos it's for the whole R Gym!
Let's see how long it will last.
Then I went to watch Spiderman at 9 15 with Lek, Dong, BS and Louis when I was already only half awake and VERY VERY grumpy.
Everyone thinks Harry is HOT.
And this sounds really gross, but I agree!
Too bad he dies in the end.

MARKING DAY
The traditional games were ok lar. Quite fun. :D
Playing chaptek made me feel like a serious bimb, cos I'm like using altitude leg to kick and half the time I miss.
This altitude leg thing has got to stop. It's now a habit.
That time in gym, we were learning the straight leg in front back leg bent thingy and my very un-cooperative left leg just kept doing altitude, altitude, altitude.
Blahs.
Ok anyways back to traditional games.
Zero point was ultra weird and I just couldn't get how they jump the erm, Sally Jump
WuWei was really pro lah, and she redeemed me after I died in the shoulder stage.
Still quite fun
Yeah ok after the games we sat through, like, 4 talks (with a recess in between 2 and 2)
Mr whats-his-name was really 'what' during his ORA safety evac talk lah!
"I overheard some (school which shall remain unnamed) guys saying ' i heard the sec 1s very nice! let's go!' "
Yeah okayyy, I thought the sec 1s were supposed to be the geeks!
And in the sun protection talk, I heard some poor sec 3s suffered horrible sunburns in OBS and we are actually allowed to put on sunblock and wear caps and sunglasses during PE!
Everyone went like, Really meh? How come we don't know?
But anyways I hate wearing caps
The school day ended ok, I went to Far East to eat and after that everyone went to watch S.M.3. but I didn't cos of piano :(
Which was later postponed to 7 without me knowing
ARGH!

Yay yay it's hello to slackville from today till monday!
Tomorrow we are playing traditional games
I totally reek at chaptek (is that how to spell it?)
I remember last year Mdm Toh sang this weird song about chaptek and got some people to kick chaptek around on the stage while she was singing
Actually I found watching my classmates scurrying on the stage to pick up those dumb feathered paperweight-ish things more entertaining than the song(which, hmm was actually a poem)
I'm going back to SPS on MONDAY!
Well, actually I was a really lousy senior in primary school so I only know one of the 2007 6A people
Liyanna issanna issit? I'm not sure how to spell her name.
Hmm anyways my juniors don't speak to me
Bleah I really really hate being ignored
Which is why next year I'm gonna be as nice as how nice my seniors were this year to my juniors!
I'm gonna memorize all the names of my gym juniors and write to my mortal a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot
And me and TingFang are gonna give our gym juniors batch pressies!!!
Can't wait to be sec 2
I just hope I'll still be in this school
Yeah, MYAs went horribly
Sigh.
It was actually the first time I actually studied so hard for exams
Cos in primary school I was like, ho hum, another exam. Sure pass one lah got what to study?
Observe the slack attitude.
A note to everyone: DON'T BE AS SLACKY AS I WAS!
I did study for chinese cos it was the die-die-never-get-90-MdmToh-sure-kill-me subject
Well anyways I studied and mugged a lot this time(yay me!) but the exams were still DIFFICULT except for history cos it was like, mo xie

But whatever
Hmm, I shall tell about this weird dream I had last week
WEIRD DREAM
Okay, there was a golf resort, a beach and Disneyland next to RGS
And I was standing in the middle of the four.
I was playing ball with -erm- Dong
I think
And the ball was thrown too far so it landed in Disneyland and almost rolled to the beach, so I told Dong not to throw too hard
I forgot what happened in between, but I found myself in a pool at the golf resort
with DAI LAO SHI!!!
She was wearing this really ugly swimsuit that looked SUSPICIOUSLY like an old leotard and I was wondering if it really was an old leotard
And then five GIGANTIC beach balls in the five house colours came rolling towards the pool and stopped at the grass
I saw that the house capt were standing on them (?!?!???)
And they OPENED (?!?!?!?!?!?!???!?!!!!)
And there were gym people in them (?!?!?!??!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!)
Then I woke up
Strange
And now that I got my english and lit FAs back, I see how badly I ____ in those subjects
Hmm, and history's not that bad, the key is to MUG AND MUG AND MUG and MEMORIZE ANSWERS
NEW LIST OF SUBJECTS IN ORDER OF POTENTIAL HARMFULLNESS TO MY GPA
1. Geog
2. Lit
3. English
4. Chinese
5. Science
6. History
7. Maths
Well, okay we'll see the more accurate list once the SA results are out
