I see the fear in ur eyes, the same fear that strike my heart. Maybe there comes one dae when man loses courage and fall. Maybe there comes a dae when man would cower and betray their kinsman. But todae is not the dae. Todae is the dae tht we fight, we fight for our family and loved ones. Even if humanity was to fall todae, we'll fight to the end!!!!

Still found it veri nice especially the speeches and the soundtrack. arhhhh.... hmwk is killing me, still got history 2 source based and 2 strutured and 1 ji xu wen. tiao, hopefully, chin teacher not TPH, else die:X. tmr got farewell, for sec 4s and Mr Lee, at night hopefully going to downtown. lalala, thats all from me. Happy New Year.

Jingel bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the Way....

ha, 23 daes of emptiness and i'm finally back at blogging. lol, lots happened in the past 3 wks. 1 whole wk was taken up by perc fest, which i muz say, was to a large extent enjoyable. Now its Christmas eve, thus wishing everyone out there a veri merri merrriiii Christmas. Loosen up, forget everything for the moment and juz relax and get into the spirit of Christmas. When the clock strikes 12, let us all appreciate the ppl and things around us. All festive seasons are time for appreciation, its time to show ur loved ones how much u care, how much they mean to u. Quoting from my chairman, get out of ur comfort zone and make a difference. Show the world u can make a diifference. The world around u is juz a mirror. The strength u see in others are in u, the weakness u see in others are deeply rooted in u. So let us face the world with an open mind, a big heart and show that u really care.

Shld i go into the details of perc fest? i guess not, prob never finish writing. Those who wan details can come look for me personally:) Todae had comm meeting and finally, it had some productivity. Seems tht the combined concert wif SN might be called off as Yang lao shi is no longer their condutor. I dun see a prob but apparently or teacher i-c do, and is initiating the withdrawal and pushing for a triple raffles concert. lol, not tht i have a prob, but with not connections in style and playing, getting a concert done in like 4 months from now is (softly)madness, insane!!!!!!!. lol, ppl who come here dun tag so keep it this way, i dunwan a repeat of xq's blog's tagboard incident. Shall keep it to tht for now.

MERRY CHRISTMAS
AND
A HAPPY NEW YEAR


ps. my sch's portal down, thus the back ground pic cannot see, meanwhile listen to "Jingle Bells"

A leader is simply just an ordinary man with a vision

Comm meeting

As promised, here is the update on comm meeting todae. Out of 17 members, 9 turned up I think and at least 3 were late. And...., thts just the stats part. The whole meeting slowly unknowingly degrade into private recreational conversations and a few were even playing, but still, we are only human.....signz....can't really blame them for the poor showing, from an audience pov, it was indeed a boring meeting:(. Got my batts for for jb1 from zongjin todae as birthdae presents. Thnks man! Now my jb is up and running:)

All human actions have one or more of these seven causes: chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reason, passion, and desire.
Aristotle


Yoohoo, todae is my birthdae, was at chalet for the whole dae, veri fun but downtown is getting from worse to worser(if there is such a word). Again, another drought since the last time I wrote, 2 wks to be exact. Lots have happened but most are too insignificant or too senstive to touch on. Arhhh, november is almost gone, 45 mins left and still no hmwk done. Muz buck up coz still have perc fest ahead and i guess i do not have many daes left. tmr got comm meeting, hopefully it'll be productive this time coz i specially came back from chalet to sleep at hm juz to go for it.

hmm...lets cover an event in the past 2 wks. Lets see...methink tht the HCCO interaction is at least worth some coverage. Firstly, I reached Bishan at 8 and we left Bishan at 8.45 taking 156 to HCJC. On the bus, we met this cute TCHS sec one(i think) who came from the same sec sch as our dear chairman. As it turns out, he was in CO and going towads HCJC as well. Also, he appears adorable(at least at tht time), juz a little chatty. Then, we reached HC, after some blind searching, we finally found their LT3 and to only find out tht we were one of the first schs to arrive at 9.52, when the event starts at 10. The performance section was quite boring except for maybe SN's skit, pretty entertaining and I have to take my hat off to them for the amt of effort and planning.(Round of applause) Coming back to our cute sec 1, he utterly destroyed our fist impression of him, started calling our chairman names. But at least at tht time, we were too caught up to notice this pest. But after the performance during lunch, this little nasty pest was still badgering our dear chairman, and obviously, our chairman being so soft-hearted, did not take it up with him. However, our ex-vice-chairman decided to give him a piece of his mind and I think it shut him up pretty well. ha, he got nothing to say at the end. After lunch we had games, all are quite lame and somehow or another the grp me, zongjin and boyi are in manage a 3rd place finish. after the games, HCCO played the finale piece, hidamari ......., forgot the 2nd word, juz one yr after i dropped jap, rusty already. Anywae, it was supposed to be a band piece but they pulled it off pretty well cept for maybe the strings. When the strings came in, it sounded a little hollow but the dizi, I muz say is veri zai. They are able to produce a veri pure sound though their di2 mo4 usually make the sound fluffy. Two thumbs up for them, guess with more ppl in the strings, it would be veri nice. To end off the dae rather nicely, we had to meeting our dear Lin lao shi on bus 156 on our way home. I think i'll buy 4D with the bus plate no., veri lucky:(

Wishing all those sharing the same birhtdae with me
A HAPPY BELTATED BIRTHDAE
And the chance of this is veri high( it is proven tht in a grp of 27 ppl, the chance is 51%)

When I end this message, it is 20 mins away from the end of my birthdae:(
Stay tuned for the update on comm meeting tmr:)(:

To think tht the world is perfect is my mistake, To pray for the world to be perfect is your mistake, To hope tht the world would be perfect is our mistake becoz perfection is a concept, its like saying "assume there is no friction or air resistence" tht kind of thing.

Morpheus: Sooner or later you're going to realize, just as I did, there's a difference between knowing the path...and walking it.


Perhaps its the rain, i dunno, but it feels as if heaven is crying for us, the pathetic humans who oppose every law of nature, the creature that toppled the balance of nature, we use resources as if nature was not there and when resources run out, we occupy a new piece of land and start depleting its resources.

"Agent Smith: Did you know that the first Matrix was designed to be
a perfect human world, where none suffered; where everyone would be
happy. It was a disaster. No one would accept the program.
Entire crops were lost. Some believed that we lacked the
programming language to describe your perfect world, but I believe
that as a species, human beings define their reality through misery
and suffering. So the perfect world we dreamed, but your primitive
cerebrum kept trying to wake up from. Which is why The Matrix was
redesigned to this...the peak of your civilization."

All I can say is that there's truth in it and perfection would remain a concept still until one dae I hope that smth might change. The movie Matrix holds much more than entertainment, it is a mirror, one tht chooses to be direct and honest, the philosophy behind it can be considered one of the greatest in mordern times and btw for those who dunno, Philosophy is a great subject in which its meaning have changed throughout the entire mankind history. It was said to be Aristotle who started it and define it as how the universe can about to Pythogarus who define it as math intertwined with life to confucius definition of how a man should live its life to todae's definition of simply what is life. The Matrix holds the truth, those who dun understand would nvr do but tht's the way life is, never perfect......

Morpheus: What is real? How do you define real? If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see...then real is simply ... electrical signals interpreted by your brain.

A random act of kindness can really lighten up ur dae
We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love.

A jest's prosperity lies in the ear of him that hears it, Never in the tongue of him that makes it.

have lots of time todae, going to crap quite a lot again, for those not wanting to strain their eyes, do not read on. Firstly, the narrative for todae. Went to sch at 10 to attend chin remidial. Unproductive time being wasted again as we took 2 hrs to go thru 2 levels od vocab. Luckily I finished 8 MCQ comprehension during that time, else would stone to death. Anw , just a casual comment, was thinking that some of the qns were asked for the sake of asking.

Life is a natural depressant, thats why we have endorphines stored inside our brains. Thinking is human's only advantage over animals, if we stop thinking, perhaps we would end up like beast again. The hols is a time to rest and relax, yes but more importantly, I think its a time review and reflect. Veri impt process as it forms the basis of our thinking. Its veri easy to tell if a person have done his own reflection during his own time, the most obvious signs for a positive can be found on one's conduct. Making a correction to ytd's statement, i was crapping, and i found out in the end that I still maintain that I will not change for others, but I will change for myself. The ppl around you are ur mirrors, ur every action and words are reflected in them, to change them, the only way is to change urself, coz the mirror can't possibly not reflect the light source. Sometimes when we ask why ppl around us are not up to our expectations, when this happens, i beseech u to look at urself first. Finger pointing will only makes things worse. Have u met up to their expectations, that u muz ask urself, coz for every action there's a reason, at least I believe in that.

Confused thoughts often lead to fruastration, yet it seems like man muz undergo all these. So often have we looked at an issue, ppl or anything that exist and we see 2 sides of it. We are thus confunded by these contradictory traits and smtimes make irrational decisions, yet in this complicated society, irrational decisions seem to be the norm for things to work. However, I choose to believe in the idealistic way of doing things- Keep everyone happy while making progress, it sounds impossible but it was us humans that make it impossible if it was up to anyone to make it possible, it will be us. Yes, I'm ranting here but I have warned earlier and I can tell u that 99.9recurring till a 8 appears percent that my belief will never come true but I will still not conform to the other extreme, call me a dreamer and i'll tell thats what i am and i do not deny it.

The purpose of life is a life of purpose.

juz realized that my blog is not updated frequently, well.......exams are over and I'm supposed to have more time not less, it seems that though I have more time, I have more activities too.... The first 2 daes of hols went by quickly enough and I believe that more of this kind of daes are to come, well lets take things as they come....

Ytd was another of our "bowling outings", went to Yishun Safra to bowl. Finally, my average is above 100 though at the expense of a few sore fingers at the end of the dae. And in the morning, we were the first customers of LJS and sat there quite long playing Magic, thought that the staff were quite pissed...,haha...who cares.

Todae was another of a "working dae", though prac did not start at 9 rather at 2, i reached sch at 10 intending to do hmwk and practise. At 12, the Comm was supposed to meet at canteen to move instruments. Considering that round 10 ppl came, was rather a gd result on the fact that the announcement was sent in email, nothing much to say bout the attitude of ppl who came, shall leave out personal comments as they might be biased. The point is that it was round 1pm when we finished moving all the instruments and if we move at this speed, we will be outpaced by tortoises. Practise was rather mudane, considering that i only needed score for 1 out of the 6 or 7 songs we played, sound was okay at the atrium but temperature was not, keyboards instru were out of tune with orchestra. End of prac, LEK gave another of his dramatic speeches which addresses pertinent issues with much passion and hints.

Sub-paragraph
Juz like to say few things bout changes. Changes happen all the time and we change to keep up with change, thus it's a everlasting cycle that never ends. Change can be due to environment, influence and determination. If you are determined not to change, you will not. And I'm one that chooses to change as little as possible. I do not change myself to suit others, I rather ppl change to accept me, else, we can juz call it off. My views are different from most others, i can tell u that i'm more a thinker than a doer. Change is always so abstract, when we say "You've changed", do we mean I have changed but you have not or you have changed and I have not.... Thus I choose not to judge ppl, coz judging others is to judge urself, and I feel that I'm not ready to do that and my belief is that no one in this world is able to......

A silent cry broke the sky, love was the reason why it broke

ytd and todae are 2 fun daes, ytd went to CSC house for dunno wat but still quite enjoyable. Firstly, CSC was so lame to ask us play an icebreaker so that her husband can get to know us, the former taken literally ws fine, but do you introduce yourself by telling "your darkest secret"?.....Well....at least I don't. Next we went on a tour round her house and found out that she painted the house truly white, which is quite a disturbance to the eye. The lamest game we played there was an improvised Whacko, which ended up with Mingren and Yeeler doing forfeits, well hen for the rest of the time, we played hearts bridge magic and so on, till 6.30 we went to bishan park to play soccer. Went home round 8pm, was veri lateand got a sore throat:(

TODAE!!!!!
9-5practice, don't sound as bad as it looks
I'll go straight into the point, we tried to play fei tian todae, though I agree that it sounded a little crap, but well its our first time....and i'll give a B3 for the standard todae considering the number we had...Seems a possible song for our reportoire nxt yr if we make some progress the way we did with Shi Cheng....Will not comment more but really like the feeling of playing fei tian, seems so diff from all the other song.....

I BELIEVE IN WHAT I BELIEVE

The world contains quite a lot of people, from the highest in the social ladder to the lowest, so much that we think that we are unable to handle them and thus no human is truly happy. What we do not know is that our world revolves only around 8-9 people and we only need to handle these 8-9 people to be happy. However, what we do not know again is that to handle these 8-9 people properly, it will take all your life.

Biology: 74 A2
Chemistry: 80 A1
Physics : 86 A1
Chinese : 70 A2
English : 73 A2
A Maths : 70 A2
EMaths : 76 A1
Literature : 77 A1
SS/Hist: 57 C5

L1R5: 8
Average: 73.688...
Average for L1R5: 77.66....

Notice how one subject can pull the average down...haiz... SS/Hist top in class is only a B3, how to score.....Still at least my L1R5 is still a single digit thanks to lit, the most unexpected result I've got. IEP was quite fun, 2 days of archery left me a suntan and lots of fun, never expected archery to be so and our tennis court wall will be the reminder for our memories.....

All animals are equal but some are more equal than others
Physics: 86 A1
Chinese: 70 A2
English: 73 A2

Highest possible L1R5: 7

sianz.... above is a reivew of wat I got back on fri. apparently 7 is impossible as the msg for SS/Hist is 5 point something and the highest a B3, thus we can deduce that some ppl failed, haiz... its always like that when u get back paper.... CO resumed on Fri with us playing the same old stuff again, but todae ZJ made an announcement that we are going to play fei tian, looking forward coz its super zai. Performance is confirmed on 18th dec at SCH, so I'll most prob miss it, so sad will be at percussion fest.

" I thought that...." This phrase is so often used by all of us, seems to be an excuse, a pretext, yet as always, life is an irony, and thus it is a method of avoiding reality, responsiblity or even the simplest courage to face up. In chinese, this is known as " hai2 yi3 wei2 ...." Well for those from RI, should have seen a essay on this by our dear KJX, yes, he added a touch of romantic irony and plays on our sympathy for the beautiful misunderstanding, still the point comes across. We always think we know wat will happen and it will be according to how we imagine it, yet life itself is constantly proving us wrong, still we are unwilling to accept, to face up, still using " I thought that..." Perhaps its human nature, but the point is too much have been lost becoz of human nature and if we continue, we might lose even more things. So lets not be like the girl in the essay who thinks that silence is rejection and lets not be like the boy that is afraid to confess his crush. Instead, lets be like the telephone, in which it does not think too much, live life in liberty....

What can ail thee, knight at arms
Alone and palely loitering?
The sedge is withered from the lake
And no birds sing


Just thought tht the poem is suited with the music.hmm....well, it also reflects todae's so called comm meeting. It was rather productive but still we failed to cut the main prob ( qie1 ru4 zhen4 ti2 ). The prob of the collaboration is still not solved though a couple of minor probs, then we starting learning the laws of physics by playing billard. Well, to sum up todae, its more play than work, not that i mind, but efficiency is still expected. Just realised todae tht writing on blog could have serious repercussions, shldn tok so much....haiz.....

With sadness, then we are able feel happiness

" La Belle Dame Sans Merci, Hath thee in thrall!"

hmm.....seems that there's nothing to do now except to slack around. Yesterdae slept at 1 am. Watched Contact, a great sci-fi movie invlove the greatest of physics and maths. ARH!!!! screaming here coz there's practice on Fri and me friend's birthdae, dunno wat to do, but heck, its still unimportant now.... tmr hve to go bacj to sch to take sm moe quiz then hopefully can find enough ppl to go seoul garden:)

Mathematics is an universal language, Music is an international language, Politics is an intranational language, English is an inter-racial language, Care is an inter-friends language but ultimately, love is human language....

i can see clearly now the rain is gone...... i can see all obstacles in my way....i feel like all......This is a bright. bright sun shining dae!!!

EXAMS ARE OVER!!!!

A Far Cry from ME (improvisation from A Far Cry from Africa by Derek Walcott)

A wind is ruffling
the usual peace of the school.
Students, quick as flies
eyes glued on the book in front
Notes are scattered on the table
Only the slacker, failure of exams, cries:
"Waste no compassion on this useless knowledge!"
Statistics justify and teachers seize
The salients of exam policy
What is that to the innocent student piled with stress?
To educators, expendable as litter

Surrounded by four walls, the air-con blows
In a silent creepy hall where noise
is prohibited to the maximum level
From Bishan or anywhere in Singapore
The exams of the education system is read
As natural law, but upright graduates
seek their divinity by inflicting homework
Stressed as these delirious innocence, his study plans
Clashes with the pre-planed schedule of the school
While he calls courage still the innocent dread
Of the frightening exams contracted by the MOE

Again brutish necessity wipes its hands
Upon the napkin of a dirty cause, again
A waste of our compassion, as with exams,
The gorilla wrestles with the superman,
I who am poisoned with the blood of both,
Where shall I turn, divided to the vein?
I who have cursed
The mad person who invented exams, how choose
Between studying and failing?
Betray them both, or give back what they give?
How can I face such stess and be cool?
How can I turn from exams and live?



Well...Exams are over and i have 6 daes to enjoy meself before going back to sch to be demoralised. Anw, exams aren't that hard cept for a few papers, just hope that L1R5 would not be too high, best if its a single digit:) Just and interesting thought : Is the coffin too big for the hole or is the hole too small for the coffin? Take the coffin to be our expectations and the hole to be the reality. Are our expectations of life too large for reality and is reality too small to hold our expectations. The higher you aim, the higher you fall.....think bout it

Mon: First dae of T4
Tues: Biotech fair competition
Wed: Forbidden City Performance
Thurs: Biotech fair exhibition
Tmr : Same as above

This is my only chance, Love open my heart.....
I write what people want to see......
You betrayed me!!!......
The potrait of empress, the story behind a much hated woman, the other side of her.........


hmm..from the schedule bove, methinks that i'm being screwed this wk!!!! Biotech was rathr boring cepts for the time we went exploring SSC:) Manning the booth was no difficult task as practically only 2 ppl came to see our project and 1 didnt even ask Qns. Basically, we were wasting time there just that we got free admittion to SSC

Forbidden City turns out to bw worth the 50 dollars it quoted as ticket price. The live music from the orchestra was wonderful, really appreciate Dick Lee for making it such a night for us. Western and Chinese mixture, with sounding to pop and comtempary, one can't help but juz applaud this wonderful creation of music, though it did not overshadow the performance. Kit Chan did exceptionally well in her vocals and the whole musical production was very fluent. Some things i learnt there: a can of coke cost 4 dollars, a programme booklet cost 5 dollars, the CD cost 20 dollars but the CD worth it, was v zai the orchestra. enjoyed it very much though i reached home close to 12 and there's school the nxt dae.

shld not be writing too much from now on, think till afterr exams, Until then, enjoy Bach's Air On G String, bye

Now the shadows of yesterday have washed over, we shall stand up and embrace the future. Let us stand strong and resilent against challenges ahead. You will not stand alone. Humanity will stand alongside with. Do not fear the future coz its the future that fears us

zhe4 shi4 wo3 men2 dou1 jin1 li4 guo4 de4 jian1 lao2.........this started the movie I Not Stupid, sometimes i tend to agree....

On the Last week of term 3,
we were happy and free,
we thought we had a 1 week break
to play and play and play

On mondae came the first signs
that i might not be so
Csc vowed to complete trigo
by which lifeskills became math

We jeered at her cruelty
but cheered for her kindness
for we will then not have
to make up in the hols

Tuesdae flow by quickly
Wednesdae went fast enough
Thursdae was the dae
we let down our guard

As the saying goes,
the calm before the storm
right on the storm hit us
on fridae was our deathdate

Homework started raining
as if it was free
If homework=love,
we are being adored

Csc came in with a pile
and left empty handed
Such harshness we can't comprehend
yet we have to conform

next came the Mt teacher
she made so much sound so little
that only after the lesson
we realised that we've been had

Among cruelty we find warmth
from the triple s teachers
but still it was relative
as they gave as much as they could

One week past since fridae
and we stared at the pile
of unfinshed homework
that smiled upon us

We grit our teeth
showing our perserverance
but still
its impossible to beat the impossible

So we started sulking
hoping things would be better
as todae is fridae
and tmr is saturdae

But as we all knoe
sundae is not far away
and mondae we'll
be back at the prison

I stand upon this crossroad
in a dilema
The road untaken seemed so eerie
yet i had so unknowing chosen it

and thus it has made all the difference

signing off
the miserable one ranting

Wednesday, September 10, 2003

life once had so much meaning, so much depth, yet in current society and current situation, life seem so empty. There seem to be this emptiness in our minds nowadays. Our lives have become routines, slave to the harsh and cruel society and reality. Now, we are just blindly following wat the others are doing. As a student, u are expected to mug, as a adult, u are expected to work, as an old folk, u are expected to retire. If u dun, u can expect unfriendly stares from ppl along the streets. Is this the irony of life or that its juz technology has caught woth us so much that it injects a new meaning into life that follows the motto: I will allow myself to become slave to books and machines......
Chem remedial todae. "If u guys cooperate, we can end early" In the end, we ended 25min late becoz he decided to crap smth bout his auntie and hawaii. still, went lunch then bowling at yishun safra.

O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name

And I'll no longer be a Capulet...

motivation, sometimes is all that we need to perserve on.....it could be anything or anyone or just a small spark of optimism in ur mind......what it does can be considered miraculous sometimes.....however, once we lose this motivation, we lose our will to carry on, in some cases our lives as well.....life is often a self-fufilling prophecy, a lot of things that we are unexpecting actually are always on our mind, juz that we chose to ignore it......
3 test madness todae, screwed my SS, for oral and chem still so so lar.....Rp congress, no sectionals:), so went to eat at 1.35 then went home and slack..tmr got math test, last test of the wk, also got 2 math lesson as mrs chan is taking away lifeskills to finish so that we need not make up during hols. oh yah, tmr also getting back progress report, so far me think got 4 A1, the only one unsure is lit and eng.

perhaps i'm at fault, perhaps he's at fault, perhaps the world's at fault for changing so quickly.....perhaps its nobody's fault at all.....
Bio test todae, turns out okae, but not veri sure of a A1, but its still not counted for any progress report. tmr got SS test, Chem test and English Oral!!!!! Luckily, due to RP congress, we are let off 1 peroid early and encouraged to go, however, we shall make full use of the time given and head straight back home:)
Juz realised that its 4 wks to exams and i haven started studying yet.....haiz......If u look a little further, u'll realise that its a year and 3 months before we graduate from RI.......So a little advice for the ppl out there: this is the last strech of the race, if u have been slacking throughout the race, its time to buck up and keep up, do what u have to do, else u will veri soon lose the chance to do so, lets not have any regrets when we leave. Let us smile and say that" I've made an impact in RI" before leaving........

watching the sea at night is beautiful, especially when u see bright lights afar, so close yet so far away.........the gentle wind and the sound of the waves breaking are the only sounds u can hear. Its so peaceful, so quiet, washes all ur worries, so idealistic.....

Last prac with shen lao shi todae, quite sad, he's a relly gd teacher and we really improved a lot under his guidance, but still the sch can't afford to pay him, the co can't afford to pay him, though we really need him....todae managed to psyho jason and get bing liang into pernament percussion, could tell that he was quite pissed after that, but i was stating facts when talking to him. First, he said that percussion is easier to learn than Yang Qin, thus we should train another person. I told him if it was so easy to be a percussionist, why don't he become one and we'll see how he does. Then, he mentioned that Bing Liang and the nicolas are the only ppl left in yang Qin and sort of piss me off as i needed to remind him that taking that 2 ppl away means there would be no more percussionist in the co. Finally, he said smthing that really let me lose my patience. I asked if he thinks that percussion is less important that yang qin, he replied with a firm yes. I simply told him that if that was his viewpoint, there's no point carrying on with the conversation. He gave in and said that its still Bing Liang's choice, thinking that bing liang would choose yang qin over percussion, but in the end, he chose percussion and thus, we have a pernament sec 2 percussionist, then at least i see some hope in Animal Farm 2, else it would go down as another greatest failure in history.....
hmm...Shen lao shi said he will send us the price of the drum pad, hope its below 50, so i can buy:)

Teachers' dae celebration. The morning began with our biathelon, in which i took a leisure swim and the Big Walk, haha, don't think my timing was gd. Buckley came in fifth as expected from the results we had so far in interhouse competitions, but anw, i've decided not to really bother bout house events already. Class party was sort of fun, lots of food, pizzas, sushi, snacks, chocolates, pasta. We even drank a toast to our teachers, by screaming "yam seh" for 2 times, leaving the last time for after exams...
Went back to pri sch, the buildings have changed, the ppl have changed, feels like a total stranger in the place, anw waited for 4 hrs before some of the ex-classmates turn up....haiz, the numbers are decresing over years, but who can blame them, the place seem so unfamilar, so foreign to us now......Sense of helplessness came over us at that place.....but the world muz move on, we muz move on, it wasn't exactly a fruitless trip as we managed to see our P6 form teacher and our chinese and basketball teacher. hmm....andy was veri strange todae, acted strangely, makes us wonder...then, in the evening we went to play bball, he seem to lag, yes like a computer, always 1 step behind, wonder why....think....think.....

I lied.....in order to get the truth, I sinned....... to discover what is good, i gave...... to find out how is it like to take and I misunderstand......for me to be understood... How strange the world is at times.... We do exactly the opposite of what we wish to obtain, but thats how life is, full of opposites and we can never understand it..... Do not try to understand life, instead just get what u think is the best out of life.....If one dae we be judged, let us face God bravely and say"i've sinned but i discovered good, i've lied but i've found the truth".......
morn assembly, its seemed to be a routine that every year, there would be a case of public caning......First year we had someone who set up a defamatory website and went around publcising it, Second year, if i'm not wrong,we had someone that stole and this yr, we have someone who stole but this time its a lower sec... Are our teens being corrupted faster and faster? Or is it that the expectations of a rafflesian has gone up? I dunno and i muz say that young children and teens todae are not as innocent as we've seen a few yrs back, i'm still trying to figure out wat this means but anywayi can tell u that it isn't a good sign.
tmr is tchr's dae celebration and ACES dae, mini bialthelon(pardon me spelling) 250m swim, 1.4 run, sianz, sure get flu.....For class party, we ordered 6 pizzas and a cake, hmm....wonder how we gonna finish.
going back to pri sch after that, heard that they set up a CO in my pri sch, going back to see see....

Mar is exceptionally bright todae......the centaurs had a foreboding warning.......saturn is laying in wait.......the King of Hell is too laying in wait.......
Yes, Mars would be bright todae and its for xxxxyears that its been so close to Earth. From afar(my home), it lokks just like a star that doesn't flicker, but with a telescope, the whole celestial body takes shape and comes into view nicely. Haha, just diverting a little, Mars being bright actually mean that something bad is going to happen, according to Harry Potter Book 1(juz joking), its in the myths too, so far nothing bad has happened to me, so i'm wondering....
Got my 3rd A1 for term 3, rather astonishing results from physics, considering that i've failed a test and pass the other with only 15/25, i still got 80.5 and a A+ for coursework. Miss Huang included practicals as well and my marks shot up:). Hist test postponed means nxt wk got 4 test but nvm already as progress report would already be out.
sectionals in the afternoon, turns out that Shen lao shi is coming for 1 more lesson.YAh!!!!!muz say that i've really enjoyed his lessons veri much. He shares that same anti- ACS feeling with us juz that his is towards ACS(Barker Road). Shouldn't write what he said, coz its still a person's opinion.

As the hopes of the future start to take on reality, the mistakes of the past would be forgotten just like paper would fade over time. Memories too, would fade, but good memories usually outlast bad memories, thus often when we look back, we would smile and reminise the scenes then. I'll quote from my Sec 1,2 form teacher: "U've got to create these memories, they will not come naturally. How much u bring away from this place would depend on how much effort u put in......"
todae's highlight is com meeting, continuing Animal Farm 2. Todae the representatives from each group of animals met up with the evicted humans. It was a rather ironic situation, now that the animals ask for advice from the humans on running the farm, though Mr Jones seems a little can be bothered. The focus todae is on Snowball on how he would conduct this meeting. It turns out that he could not make much impact as he is too democratic. The humans have warned us, democracy would get u nowhere, communism even worst, only a capitalist farm would be able to stand on its own. We have outline our programme for the farm for the nxt yr, no matter what, we would stand by our leader, Snowball, we would rise and fall with the farm. Uncertainty lays in the path of the farm, what would happen? Will democracy or even communism work? We dunno and we are going to find out.

I have a dream....
Martyn Luther King Jr said that for peace between the blacks and whites in America. I say that again todae for a better future for Animal Farm 2. Whether a ideal would work out depends on its ppl. If no animal takes one more grain than it should, all animals consider others before self and that all animal believes in making Animal Farm a better place, Animal Farm would have worked out. Now that its Animal Farm 2, we have another chance, thus it's up to us to topple it or realise it. Sucess or Failure?The destiny all in our hands.......

juz realised that have a lot of hmwk for wkend, barely finished it :), rushing through it all dae. tmr still got physics test, got to study!!!! hmm..realising that me blogs getting shorter, haiz...running out of things to write??? i dun think so..

There are times where u juz dun wanna do something but u have to do so, coz we've got to conform, conform to society, conform to group, conform to peer pressure. but mentioned in my earlier blog, is conforming really that good, it solves all prob, but what i feel is that, as long as thoughts are constrained and someone is unhappy, the collective sense of ppl will never work

Half dae???? or juz another fri????yes, thats the topic of discussion for todae. I emphasize again, its a half dae and i reached home at 8.15? maybe i could have reached home earliest like 6, but still half dae???? this can be traced to mondae Promethium Dae where Old Major declared a half dae on Fri. Discussion was on on where to g on Fri. The first piece of bad news came immediately verdict swith pigs taking 1h for the education of animals after lesson ends and refusing to budge. The second came nvt dae when one of the commandments says that practise would commence as usual on Fri. There was a shout of protest (or was there not) and for the first time after Snowball's taking the lead on Animal Farm, there was discontent among the animals. Some openly voiced their protests, some made a mental note to rebel(not to come todae), Some took it in their stride just like Boxer does as they went with the maxim "Snowball is always rite" and " I will train harder" Thus again, idealists would look at this and shake their heads once more as the communist state once again fails to become reality and "democracy" is once again compromised. Animal Farm 2 has reached a turning point, building up a steady climax. How will Animal farm 2 end up? What will Snowball do? Will the animals rebel again?? Stay tuned to find out.

Control, a powerful word in itself, the meaning is even scarier. To have control is to completly manipulate smthing or smone. Control is so corrupted in todae society that perhaps it is now what we think now. "With great power comes great responsiblity" "Ultimate power corrupts ultimately", i'll add one more, "we all fear control, thats what that make it so powerful,,,"

sianz.....todae is a sad dae. 2 peroid of maths!!!!what the....luckily, todae is short dae, anw still stay ack to look for chem file, in the end still cannot find it. looking foward to nxt fri, teachers' dae celebration. got news todae that whole P6 class most probably going back, but looking at the no. of valid emails in the yahoo grps, aiyah, hopefully, they zi dong yi dian lor

leave me alone!!!..... If I had left u alone, u would drown in ur self despair and self pity

How strange... half of the time we speak, words that come don't actually represent what we thoght at that time, perhaps it is human's hyprocracy at work. We think that we cannot show our true self to another individual, cause them our weaknesses would be controlled by that individual. Is the current society that bad? When we look at society, we always think of it as bad, but when we look at individuals within the society that we know, we see their good. What does this tells us??? It tells us that a person always have two sides, same for a society. When it comes to a person u know, u do not judge, cause u know his good. However, when it comes to a person u do not know, just like society, we tend to judge and when we judge, we tend to look at the bad side of a person, and no matter what he does would be deemed as bad if he left a bad impression the first time round. I know not many ppl actually read my blogs, but if u happen to come across this, take this as a pleading from me, " don't judge ppl from impressions", 90% of the time u'll find that u actually misunderstood the person, so......

yesterdae was open house. We were allocated slots to perform at the area in front of the atrium. When i arrived in the morning, i knoe that it's going to be screwed, the whole band was down there, while we are sending our small sections..... worse of all, our slot is always after theirs. In the morning, it was still okae as there weren' many ppl. In the afternoon, u couild tell the difference. The SEC1 band played "Jurrasic Park" , there was a crowd in front. After their performance, we started moving in, ppl started moving away. So...should get my point. The last performance was put up by erhu. First, the sec 1 played the school song. Considering that they were Sec1s, their performance was brillant. The Sec2 put up a item that was decided 2 hours ago and i had to dig for my score for them??? Anyway, end product, we screwed it. The last item by Marcus and Zongjin, 2 ppl, sitting there playing erhu. I've seen Guang Ming Xing at SCH lor, it was acceptable then, now with 2 ppl, and that kind of atmosphere, forget it man. Comparing that performing to the band simplest song, it was already a far gap. The band simplest song that dae was "i love u baby"( the one from Carlsberg ad), and already there was a drum solo for that Boon to show off again. Not that i'm biased against Chinese Music, but if our percussion section was to try a piece, it could almost never match up with Boon 1 person playing. I'm speaking the truth, so punch me if u want, coz the truth got to be out somedae... i see ppl enquring about the band, for CO, we would be lucky if someone was watching us other than our own ppl...haiz....

If music be the food of recess, play on.....
There are 3 truths i wish to tell you todae.......


basically, the above statements sum up todae's events. the first was our class arts at the atrium, tremendous sucess i would say. best item was boon's drum solo, followed by "careless whispers" in which Jermyn played the saxaphone solo. "Colours of the wind was screwed" and it was dedicated to Mrs Chan...opps.... boon was damn zai, rolling at about 200???, basically, he captured the whole atrium's attention and Mrs Chan was like staring with her mouth open...haha...percussion rulez....Boon Fatty rulez.... then after the performance, Mr Mac came over and said:"Well Done, good class spirits boys"

the second part was the so called "magic show" we were invited to by Mrs Chan. turned out to be a christianity conversion session. the magic show lasted 1/2 hour, singing took up 45min, conversion took like 1 hour??? Sorrie to say, i believe in the freedom of beliefs, thus took the conversion session as a bible study sesssion. The bible consists of many interesting aspects that shows similarity to other religion. shall not go on here, but next time Mrs Chan sends an invitation, i would reconsider...

In the chinese sayings, we come across one statement " A man shed blood but not tears" This basically means that the male gender is not supposed to cry. Has society come to such that in order for a human being to be accepted, it cannot does what a human being does? Crying is one of the most natural form of letting ppl know ur emotions. Have society made us less human, i don't know,but when faced with betrayal, fruastration and even sadness in this conformist society, i still allow my tears to flow......i still allowed myself to cry...

todae a rather emotional scene took place in our class, rather dramatic as well....muz say that i was stunned when it took place, but after reflecting upon the incident, i really felt for that person though i did not know him well. he's a great man, thats all i've got to say for him, nothing else, just simply a great man....
on a lighter note, todae's assembly program was quite funny, was laughing throughout the play...tmr Rp finals to 4 p.m.!!!! what the......anyway, should be going for that magic show...haha...hopefully it is entertaining.

perspective is everything. Life can rox when times are down, life can also sux when times are good, because it depends on how we view life..... The happiest man on earth is the one who looks into the mirror of Erised and sees only himself in it...Professor Dumbledore(is this how it's spelled?)

todae we had chem test, i only need 14/25 to get a A1 for my progress report, hehe, so i'm pretty confident that i'll get higher than that. PE was swimming, damn tired after swimming, throughout math couldn't concentrate. apparently tmr percussion sectionals, we'll have to move instruments(No!!!!!!), thats means that we'll have to move it back at 6.30, so i dunno what time i'll reach home tmr. haiz, still got math test tmr....got to mug.....

continued from Wed Aug 6..... now i see a ray of light, or maybe a mirage? A step towards may mean a feet nearer to sucess but it might also mean a step into failure. i close my eyes, shut out all my senses and followed my heart, though i do not know where it would lead me, i took a step outwards.....
I'm not going to explain, it should self explanatory. For those who are wondering why i'm only releasing my blog 2 wks after i started, i'm going to repost a few blogs

Todae ah... let me tell u a story...based on Animal Farm. ZJ is Snowball, the other candidates for chairman is Napolean, XQ is Mr Jones, the farmers are the Exco and Ben Ang...well...is Benjamin. the other animals are represented by the rest of the CO. Well the story goes like this....The animals will rebel against the farmers in 2 weeks time and Snowball and Napolean are fighting over the leadership position that would be empty after the farmers are being exiled. THe conclusion is that Snowball convinces everyone with his windmill plan and his ideology of communism and beat Napolean to the leadership position. I hereby offer my congrats to ZJ and i will do so again in 2 weeks time

P.S. ZJ can be anybody, I AM NOT SPECIFICALLY REFERING TO ANYONE. ANY SIMILARITIES TO EVENTS IN REAL LIFE ARE MERELY CONINCIDENCE AND I DEEPLY REGRET ANY PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL HURT CAUSED TO ANYONE. ANYWAY, THIS SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.

Fridae- Saturdae
u see, i built this ship to travel to the stars, but it has gone far beyond them. It has reached a place where time and space are distorted, evil and chaos reigns. It has reached the place where hell becomes a reality. It will not let anyone go.....
those were the dialouge from the movie Event Horizon, shown at Sat night 10pm. great show with lots of thinking and reflection to be done by us the audience. Imagine being tortured by your worst fears, u cannot die and must face it, sort of scary. For those who watched it, hope u shared the same sentinmentals, for those who didn't, if u think u are mature enogh to watch it, watch it, cause there are some quite gross scenes.

Saturdae
One people.....One Nation......One Singapore
yah!!!its National dae, rewarded meself by not doing any hmwk. left house at 3.30 to go to Kallang Stadium. Parade was very nice, especially how they cordinated the fireworks with 1812 overture. and yes, u have to be live at the stadium to enjoy the fireworks, i've just realised that. They don't seem that nice on TV, but anyway, i'm going to watch the replay to view the mass display, cause i can't see much at the stadium. Reached home at 11, tired but yes, satisfied. Happy Birthdae Singapore.

Sundae

in the arms of the angel, fly away to me.... and the endlessness in ur dreams
todae is...or okay, was national dae celebrations. it also marks the handover form the sec 4 to the sec 3. played with the band without score, felt veri relaxed on stage...school ended at at 1.15, 35 min after the normal time, screwed!!! had lunch, then had the handover. got position as librarian, and as expected, zongjin got the chairman position and i'm am therefore authorised to release this blog. started on my job immedialtely, didn't feel comfortable watching the photocopy lady print scores, and just standing around, guess have to get use to it. oh yeah, kevin brought a damn cute toy dino to school todae. reaction was diff with diff ppl. Deng tried to rape it on the pretext of performing CPR, zongjin tried to get it to write( forcing it to write), boon was quite facinated by it until he saw the "made in China" tag, then he threw it back to kevin, Samuel hem, just kept turning around to grab it away from kevin. a small soft toy, so many complications, but must agree that its damn CUTE!!!!! When we were giving three cheers to dunno hu, i thought i heard smone say hip hip hulei???
had dinner with zongjin and the 2 terrorist and got back home at 9.30, great record

i was surrounded by friends but i was alone, i was showered with love but i was alone, its only till the day i die that i will not be alone
Wanted to start differently and strongly, reflect on the above line, there's truth hidden in it.
todae is a good????hmm..or rather bad dae. the bad news: failed my 2nd test of the yr, Physics, 9/25. so sad, but progress report still can get a B4, 62, because my last test was quite zai. Cross country after school at mac ritchie todae. didn't do that well, but luckily, weixiong, zongjin, ningrui, jingzhou and bing liang were damn zai, managed to bring back a silver(again!)for Rico. this marks our first triump over band in many, many months?or yrs?anyway, must mention zongjin was damn good, clocked a sub 25 min timing, Hail to thee!!.... was so tired after the race but still dragged myself all the way to J8 with Zongjin.

hmm...something inspires me to write todae. So often we had been so quick to put down other ppl, sometimes even condemning his or her actions. but, we must always look but at ourselves, have we been fair, have we gone through what he or she had gone through, do we know the reason for him or her doing that act....after reflecting, u'll perhaps find that maybe he or she isn't that wrong or even not in the wrong. Society have made us judgmental characters who judges without empathy. Sometimes the truth is out there all along, just that we choose to ignore it, because our judgment tells us that it is irational, wrong or even nonsensical. So, i perceive all that who read this not to judge with your eyes, but to judge with your heart. ur eyes are only instuments, ur heart is the one that will not deceive u.

Another case is whereby he mention's this australian aboriginal tribes "transaction from boyhood to manhood" began to wonder if this is called fear treatment, haha.

Yesterday got back home from mark chan's concert like 11pm, so no time to blog. ytd was a "interesting day". Morning had a training with band for national dae. Mr Oura did not turn out to be the terror as rumoured, he's a nice guy lah. Let me narrate from the start. He walks into the room at 10 with only the conductors score. He started arranging the music, giving ppl their parts and changing thr rhythm here and there. He turns and then ask the percussion to listen to the music and improvise. I was like dunno what to play.....Luckily, came out with one stupid rhythm which was further improvised by him to sound quite nice. It as fun in there, very unlike in CO. u feel free to improvise and let the "music take u to greater heights". there was a 4 bar percussion solo in the middle of the song and the secret is that there is no score for it. u play whatever u want. Practice ended at 1050. though only 50 minutes, was really enlighted and joyous after it. hmm... wonder why?

too much things to write that have to paragraph. i cannot miss out this part man, its damn funny. i was at S11, already bought my food, then Mr Lee, Zongjin, Xunqi, Ben Ang etc.. came in. sat down at a table with ban ang. everyone went to buy their food. everyone came back with 1 plate or bowl,well...and mr lee ordered quite a lot for 5 ppl. we were like trying to gorge ourselves with food. of course, the more important part of lunch would be its conversation. Xunqi was like trying to psycho Zongjin to say something that shall not be named and at the same time not let mr lee hear it. Mr lee and i was sitting directly opposite of them. the irony of the whole thing is that i can hear everything but mr lee can't and i think he got quite pissed. i agree with Xunqi's concept of "active transport" but i must say i'm not being cunning but being clever.

At night, mark chan's email and eternity was enlightening and philosohical but i think he should break his piece into many pieces to allow time for the audience to digest what he's trying to bring across, but i must agree that wihtout any breaks, he brought out the theme that life is always changing so quickly, that when u just grasp a melody, another one comes in the way. sunny wong's picture so cool!!! that i at first glance did not know it was him. There were a few funny momments though, one audience stood up and started praising his piece. "......very gorgeous.....excellent.......however,can u say why it is so "rojak"?"

todae, rushed through all my hmwk, manage to finish it at record time, yah!

turns out that didn't screw bio too badly, got an A2, Hist test todae was quite simple, what a relieve!!or maybe not, looking at the amt of hmwk the teachers gave. Our kind Math teacher has set us a assignment and tons of hmwk on matrices and she kept yelling that we are behind time, though we are 1 topic in front of others. Practice was definitely screwed todae, half of the ppl did not have score, half did not knoe how to play and lest than 30 came from practice. hmm...thats like already 3/4 of the orchestra without the sec 4:( after practice, bully our future chairman into going for oura's practice tmr, haha, bet we get screwed.

typing from schools com lab. lame dae, doing bio. From now, typing from home:) well, not really in a sense, as we were surfing the lab and Dr Jefferey Lee had no idea what was going on. Deng would do everything for us, thus nothing to worry about. AMC was held todae. the first 20 Qns were like, hem..hem..we are in sec 3, not sec 1, however, the last 10 Qns were killers.(literally) Tmr have physics test, and i damn pro, didn't bring back physics file, and according to other ppl, the test is a killer(again). So, gd luck to me tmr lor, hopefully my last test can pull this one up for progress report. Speaking of tests, got 19/20 for chem, yah!!

ps. my prediction(Animal Farm 2) is coming true, stay tune this Sat, as we see the results on that dae. So sad, smone in our class opted out of top 3, else we would have added to our list of musical gps leaders in our class.

Been 5 daes since i've written anything, haha, quite a record. todae ah, got chinese test and com interview. both screw like hell but who cares. anyway, not that i want to screw my chinese, the whole point is that i woke up late, went to school late and ended up with no time for last minute mugging(lame excuse rite). com interview was screwed, the panel forced me to answer Qn who i prefer not to work with and why.... i gave an answer that most probably was an insult to one of them so...gd luck to me:)

Mondae blues.... experiment failed todae, was quite disappointing but expected. In life, muz learn from failures one larz. Little to no hmwk for todae, went through the whole of twelve night todae, finally after 3 terms( Quite an achievement:)).

Todae ah... let me tell u a story...based on Animal Farm. ZJ is Snowball, the other candidates for chairman is Napolean, XQ is Mr Jones, the farmers are the Exco and Ben Ang...well...is Benjamin. the other animals are represented by the rest of the CO. Well the story goes like this....The animals will rebel against the farmers in 2 weeks time and Snowball and Napolean are fighting over the leadership position that would be empty after the farmers are being exiled. THe conclusion is that Snowball convinces everyone with his windmill plan and his ideology of communism and beat Napolean to the leadership position. I hereby offer my congrats to ZJ and i will do so again in 2 weeks time

P.S. ZJ can be anybody, I AM NOT SPECIFICALLY REFERING TO ANYONE. ANY SIMILARITIES TO EVENTS IN REAL LIFE ARE MERELY CONINCIDENCE AND I DEEPLY REGRET ANY PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL HURT CAUSED TO ANYONE. ANYWAY, THIS SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.

Well... its sunday and hmwk still not done. Anyway, mrs koh likes to give 1 dae extensions, so no worry. Lets talk bout something more philosophical todae. We study in physics that energy cannot be created or destroyed. So, if we treat life as an energy, we die to give others a chance to live. Think about it, maybe it would change ur mindset on death, anyway, after enjoying life, we should not be selfish and try to hold on to it. We should give others a chance...
