GAhhhhhhh.

OhMyGoodness, i just spent so much ink printing the CO poster-thingiee. 20pages, WTF. Shit, CO owes me a whole cartirdge of ink. Okay, no I'm being nice and not chargning them for anything except the metallic yellow paper. And yea, I am privy to the word metallic yellow instead of gold which is oh so obiang.

Somehow, Jasmine has coerced me into watching Final Destination3 with Waikit and Mervyn. Okay, so she didn't exactly coerce me into it, but still... Anyhoo, the shows nc16 and the first thing Waikit said was "Are you sure you'll be able to get in?" HEY. That's unfair, I'll stick out like a sore thumb (incidentally my thumb is sore, but mroe about that later) with the towering giants Mervyn and Waikit. Darn, I wonder what'll happen if I get caught:(((

On to my thumb. My thumbnail got ripped out today when i bent over to pick my erhu up. It collided with the wall and broke. What weak fingernails I have.

This was supposed to be for the noticeboard, but Ms Lim said that no one would be able to stand there and read the whole thing :((( so I decided to put it up here instead as a form of free advertisement.
Just edited it, the paper is in a nice shade of matallic yellow :)))


Chose my new pair of spectacles. They're really really unique. Can only get them next week cos my mom made contacts too. Wanted to get contacts cos I look ummm.. less daow without glasses, but specs are so much funkier. My specs are seriously getting more expensive by the pair, paid 360bucks for this pair. Like OMFG, the person didn't say till i chose the specs. It's supposed to be a designer piece handmade in france, but HELL, who really knows? It's really nice anyway :)))

Can't. See.

My spectacles broke today. I couldn't find my other pair of frameless glasses and had no intention of putting on my oh so obiang full-framed ones, so I spent the whole day squinting away - not the most enjoyable thing. Had to play for the concert preview and I couldn't see the scores at all. Yu Zhou and Feng Nian Ji were alright, but Tian Long Ba Bu was horrendous. The number on the scores were just a tangle of squiggly lines to me. Messed up a lot - shall not elaborate.
Am at home right now instead of at CO cos I'm going to get a new pair of spectacles and repair my old ones. Okay, so I feel guilty about not going to CO, but I can't see the scores anyway so it would be a waste of time.
......
Bah. What excuses I make.

bRank's are IN.

Us students of 4e6 have developed a unique style of speaking. Thanks to teachers like Mrs Koh and Mrs Heng, our articulation has improved tremendously. Gone are the days where the word class is pronounced as it is spelt.
All hail 4e6; they perfect spoken English!
......
Yes I am being terribly ridiculous, but to hell with you, I've decided to list down the words which are unique to 4e6.

The Revolutionary Words
.aphids: aye-fids
.class: cRass
.blank: bRank
.english: eeng-gRish
.multiply: mau-tee-pRy
.semicircle: seh-my-circle
.simultaneously: sy-maal-tay-neas-lee
.pyramid: pee-rah-mid (with odd sing-song lilt)
.violent: vee-yeo-len

Oh and this is not some lame-assed thing I made up. In fact, we make it a point to use them every lesson. Even during Mdm Tang's, there will be sudden outbursts of 'Aphids!'. Mdm Tang was somewhat amused by our cheem pronunciations.

Cry-fest.

For those of you who were have been festering under rocks, the O Level results were out today.
Clarrissa shook Zhiyin's hand and wished her good luck. I did the same, except i said 'Congratulations.' oOps. Of course they pointed it out so in jest, I ressponded that it was because I knew she would be getting great results. What a great remark -.-
Mr Yoong approached our class and talked about the standard of English deproving and that we had to be the batch that got better results. This of course was responded with blank stares, nonchalant faces and at worst, got no response at all.
Poor him.
There were the usual torrent of tears, hugs from friends and congratulatory remarks from teachers. A certain teacher said that the default mark which most people would get would be a B3. Wowzers.
Saw Shiwei. When she saw Clarrissa and I, she promptly wrapped her arms around us what long arms she has and squished us up in a huge embrace. Gee, you could feel the love emnating from her. Awwww. Also met Kaishin, who wanted to go poly and do Mass Comms. Coolness.
The seniors made it look so easy, there were so many distinctions for both math. Ohmygoodness, i am so inspired to get a distinction in math too!! Bleargh. Who am I kidding??

This reeks.

Ohmygoodness, I hope I haven't gotten myself into English remedial. Ms Annie Tan asked me to name verbs(or whatever they're called) in the form of past tense form, present tense form, past participle and present participle. I couldn't answer it on Monday. She then asked me again on tuesday and being the butterbrain that I was, I promptly my brain of the contents of yesterday's lessons when i reached home yesterday night. Ya la, of course cannot answer -not by myself anyway. So there I sat on my seat, repeating answers from the people around me. She is of course neither deaf nor blind, and casually made a remark about attending extra remedial on Monday evening. I really really hope she was kidding. I think I shall die with an incredulous look on my face if I'm forced to attend English remedial. I've been living the past 15years of my life without the knowledge of verbs, nouns, and whatnot and my English is passable lor. Bah. What nonsense.

Mother Tongue lessons are a waste of time. Cheng lao shi spends at least 15minutes every lesson, shouting, threatening and collecting homework from the 4e4 students. Now I'm not saying that's bad in anyway since I get my much needed rest during these intervals, but it's really...inefficient. We are always left with only 40minutes to complete our essays, and for a person(me) that has difficulty in phrasing the sentences and writing the write word, it's like asking me to stampederun around the school compound in a minute. The school should really separate us if they want to improve our Mother Tongue grades.

Mdm Tang had an accident and has been rewarded with a crack on her spine. OW. I really wouldn't wish that on anyone. Not that I'm one of those anti-mdm tang yahoos, but still. You get what I mean.

Was reading this article in the newspaper about choosing between polytechnics and jcs.
Sure, the number of people who are studying in polys and getting to universities are increasing.
Sure, people from polys graduate with a degree from university in a shorter amount of time.
Sure, and increasing number of people are opting to enter a poly even though they qualify for a jc.
The sad fact remains, that many will be prejudiced against these individuals and think that they are the students who "Didn't make it", or are "Not quite as good".
What a sad, stereotypical world we live in.

Six Ladies and a Man.

That's the name Mr Shashi gave our group since the only name we came up with was Sushi. Before you close this window and call me nuts, I shall explain.
We were supposed to come up with a modified/totally new game for PE lessons. My group was kinda quiet so i ended up crapping with Jasmine and Jacqueline. In the end, we had this weird idea of having a game similar to captain's ball, except we we going to use a tennis ball......and the goalkeeper was supposed to use a cone to catch the ball, contributed by your's truly. Running four rounds make me give nonsensical suggestions. Nevertheless, we decided to get over with it and use that idea.
We had demonstrations from two groups yesterday.
The game by the first group was almost like captain's ball except we were supposed to let the ball rebound against the ground before our teamates could catch the ball. How troublesome.
The second game was quite fun because we won. It was like captain's ball, except you had to pass the ball to your teamates using the volleyball method.
Obviously, many people have not passed a ball that way before because when the game started, most of us were throwing, kicking, whacking, dodging the ball with alacrity, and to everyone's amusement, hurling the ball high up in the air but not sending it in any particular direction. Thankfully, i wasn't one of those even though I've never played volleyball before.
After that game, i finally realised what Jasmine meant when she said the capillaries on her wrist burst during a previous game; my wrist hurt like hell.


Anyhoo, the sec1s came today for sectionals. I was assigned to this girl called joanna/joanne(??). She was quite nice, and was easy to teach beacause of her music background(piano). Found out that she listens to English music. Yay. And she knows Franz Ferdinand. Double Yay.
After awhile, we were supposed to pass our juniors to the sec2s. Don't know what the reason was, maybe they were slacking? I wasn't paying attention. Anyway a i think kahhwee got a bit annoyed at wanxin because she didn't want to teach a junior and kept moaning and whining. I got very annoyed and decided to get away from her before i blew my top and started getting sarcastic with her. Bah. As if teaching a junior is so hard. Hell, even Jingkai made an effort even though he kept asking me what he should teach. Which brings me to the next part of my post.
He was totally clueless as to what he should teach the sec1 guy and asked me what he should teach. Being as clueless as he was since i didn't have the lian xi qu's, i told him offhandedly to teach him the basics like the different parts of the erhu and stuff like that. AND HE REALLY DID. He even demonstrated how to apply rosin onto the bow of the erhu, which was actually quite hilarious.

Oooo and i think Da Li Qing Feng is a really nice song, as nice as Chun. :)))

OhMyGoodnessIAmGoingToSmackMyselfSilly.

I passed the Bio aptitude test without studying much, and got 67marks. That's so much higher than the 54marks i got for sa2 (and lets not talk about the sa1 paper that i failed). I am so very shocked.
Took the amath trigonometry aptitude test today by myself. Apparently a few of them decided they weren't prepared and asked mrs heng to postpone the test (again). Having no wish to stay till 6.30 the next day just to finish the test, I dutifully did it today. Got around 36-38/40. It was okay, considering the fact that i didn't really study sketching of graphs. Then again, I've prolly done enough trigo questions to last me a lifetime, so I should be scoring a high mark. Am really pissed with the fact that i made a stupid careless mistake; I forgot to divide the answers by 2 when the left-hand-side was 2x.

*Tears self into strips.


Oh and CNY was quite a boring. The only interesting event was buying books from Borders. What and eventful life i lead.

CNY's Eve on the other hand, was slightly more interesting. Went to Marina Square to catch Memoirs of a Geisha. It was almost sold out and the remaning seats were at only 2 rows away from the screen which would mean that we would have to crane our necks like giraffes just to catch the sight of the shoes of the actresses. So we ended up watching I Not Stupid Too. I thought that the first movie was better cos I preferred the plot. The second movie was rather...touching though. By touching, I mean that i actually cried during the show something which the wooden block -stevie- has never done before during a movie. Well okay, so it was just a few tears or two during a few scenes, but making me shed tears is still quite a feat.


OOooooo I've just bought myself the Franz Ferdinand cd!! YAY.

eihfnsmakuwjq.
