Thank you 109 i/cs :)
You guys are awesome, like Rachel would put it.

PSL session was good even though everyone was all mass danced out and I was all gymmed out. Well not really, I only did one complete routine. And the synchronisation was all sala.

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.

I'm sorry Yi Hui I still really the blogskin you designed, I really do. I just got bored having the same skin for so long.

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.

This post is for my favourite sec 1 class 109!

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!

Hello fellow humans!

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!

Danny Noriega's last night on American Idol 7. People think he's gay but whatever I don't need to know. What matters is the performance right? He's out, but I think he's a good performer, like he performs with lots of energy and it's nice to watch good performances right?

91st post. Which shows how little I blog. Anyways SECOND update on what's been going on!

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

Fine Alicia I shall update!

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

SLI was fun :D Formal uniform chokes you and makes your feet hurt but it's still fun to wear it.

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!

Can't wait to get monday, tuesday, wednesday and thursday over with. YAY YAY SLI on friday and i get to look tall in court shoes and say "this way please" over and over again :D

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'm telling you, dailaoshi is wayy good. She's the face at the end. Dai Yong-Jun

Hello world

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.

I JUST CAN'T LET GO.
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

Just back from SPS. Super annoyed.

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 :)

OHNO I MISS TRAINING :(
It's only been 2 trainings that i missed so far. But i still miss training.
I know i can train on my own now, fujis, beijis, skipping, yatui etc.etc.
But it just isn't the same.

Yelling "ONEOHNINE!!!!!!" is becoming quite a habit now. This is what happened in 202 before chinese today:

(Rashvin starts making announcement on geog trip)
Me(irritated): ONEOHNINE!!!!!
(Rashvin finishing up announcement)
Me(still irritated): ONEOHNINE!!!!
Some other 202er: TWOTWOOOOOO!!!!
Me(realises dumb mistake): whoooops!

See?

This post is to thank everyone that has helped me get through one of the worst weeks of my life!
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:)

What i hate more than anything right now:
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.

I miss 101.

But at the same time i'm super glad that 202 turns out to be an enthu class after all! Our argument with Mr De Souza proves that too :) Well actually it just proves we're a funny class but whatever.

Mr De Souza: Ok, for your class motto, "Rule yourself before you rule others". I changed it a bit so that the meaning's the same but it sounds better. How about "Be good stewards of your own lives before leading others"? 

202: NOOOOOO!

Mr De Souza: But "rule" makes you all sound so... power hungry!

202: But we are! We're ROYALTY!

The same thing for the class vision. Ours was something to do with becoming good queens or something, and Mr De Souza wanted to change it into ladies and he says it also sounds high-class anyways. But nope, nothing less than royalty for 202'08 :P

I heart 202!

It's reeeeal quiet without the sec 3s.
I'm sick from all that yelling at orientation.
