Outing Day 2010

Saturday, March 27, 2010
Secret War Journal[17 March 2009][Long Post]
One week of school just fled by without me realising. On one hand, it's ONLY one week, I had so much tests and quizzes that I thought a month had gone by already. On the other hand, it's already one week gone, Mid-Year examinations are 1 week nearer, hardly went out with friends, spent the entire week doing economics.

As of now, I'm spending more time on economics than any other subjects. Well, I hope I will fix that. Today(27/3/2010), I done Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics. There is another test on Economics, so tomorrow the focus would return back to Economics. *Sigh*

First Outing: Mostly 4D People Gathering
Poster for Alice in WonderLand
Met up with the 4D-ians people first at Compass Point first.

This was pretty much my idea to watch a movie. Since most of them are busy during the afternoon, we decided to watch the first movie that would be screened on that day!(which is rather early)

I must admit, it's very early, but I was determined to have a outing. (I mean it doesn't make sense that I have a 'holiday' and I don't even go out for some leisure activity, right? Don't say no.)

Johnston would be joining us at Plaza Singapura.

In fact, the rest all came pretty much in time, (with me 3 minutes late. LOL!)

And Jie Sheng was sms-ing me: "I will be late"

Then I was thinking, "I would be late too. Hahas"

Sadly, our schedule was really packed so we went to Plaza Singapura, meet Johnston, and buy the tickets.

Shortly after that, we bought our snacks/lunch and off we went into the Cinema!

Movie Review
This sounds a bit radical but I'm comparing this movie to an anime based off from Alice in Wonderland too.

Anyway, the movie was not bad(since I was the one who recommended it in the first place!!!) :p

I especially like the character: Cashire Cat though I liked the Mad Hatter more in the anime.

How do I decide which is my favourite character? The strongest character.

In this movie, the Cashire cat, the master of dreams, can vaporise into thin air at any moment(and of course, create illusions)

Which makes him a but over-powered because he's virtually invincible.

Meanwhile, in the anime, Mad Hatter can instantly destroy anything from the Abyss(Alice-related Characters)

The white queen is a bit scary, in my opinion. I don't know, I think it is partly because she's dressed in white but her lips and nails are black which seems to suggest that she isn't as kind as it seems. (I almost thought she would be evil later in the movie. :p)

One more thing would be that her hands are always up though I realise later that week that it's easier to keep your back straight when you do that. Cool, learnt something new from the movie. :)

Cool, huh?

It's defect would be that the movie seemed a bit draggy halfway, probably due to the lack of action.
--
Lunch(Sort of)
After the movie, Wei Ting, Cynthia, Siew Yan, Jie Sheng, Pei Wen, Clarissa went for lunch while Johnston and I went shopping for a box for Emelia.

But it's hard to buy storage box, it seems that no one sells them after all. Hahas, we tried to get some free one from the department stores but they needed it for storage as well. Oh well. Sorry, Emelia!

P6/5 Outing!
After they finished lunch, they headed off to school. So sad right? Hahas. Johnston went home while I headed off for my next outing planned for today! LOL!

Actually, there wasn't suppose to have an additional outing(which is why I organised one in the morning) but just one night ago, they decided to hold this outing on this same day. Hahas. Just nice, after my movie too. ^^

Best of two worlds indeed! =]

It's been a long time since we last met up, so we spent the rest of the day talking and playing ice-breaking games. ^^

Now just let the photos steal the limelight...

Class Outing 2010

Class Photo
Okay, this is a bit no link, but it is part of my KHS Class Photo Collection. ^^

6/5 Class Photos provided by Jackie. Many thanks. ;)

What? You want to know what we talked during the class outing? Sorry, as promised, I would not talk about it since some are too private, too dark, too sensitive to be discussed in the public. :)

Side-notes
Okay, this is totally no link from the post but...it's about the blog in general.

I feel like posting some rather sensitive stuff again. I don't know. I may need to organise my thoughts efficiently(as if the purpose of this blog in the first place).

One way is to limit the number of readers who can access. Yeah just that, don't worry, it's not racist nor religious discrimination comments just some stuff too private to let risk that some people who should not be reading this blog read it. Yeah, you get what I mean. ;)
Back to that, I may enforce the word "Secret" in the Blog Title and restrict access soon. I still have not decide on it yet. But in the event I do, the current plan is to only allow my best friend and close friends to be able to read but then again, it is not necessary because they don't need to read my blog to know what's happening in my life. ;)

So yeah, time will tell....


Everyone has secrets so dark that no light can pierce through it...

IT Show 2010

Tuesday, March 16, 2010
Secret War Journal[14 March 2010]
It's been a long long long time since I posted. Wow. Yeah, my blog almost died out here in this cold wilderness. :p

Anyway, it's the March Holidays already. Time really flies in JC. I hardly remember doing anything for the past few months. (Anything productive, I mean)

(Meanwhile, my Combineset Blog is rotting away, may have to see to it soon...)

So yeah, my very first outing for this holiday would be the IT Show. (unless you count last Friday as a holiday, which reminds me that I had not posted on it...)

IT Show and a new Friend :)
My main objective that day was to get armour for my Ipod Nano.

Obviously, after braving all odds, I didn't buy it in the end.

Before you start whacking your heads over what in the world am I talking about, I meant the Ipod Nano Casing, you know its clothing. LOL....

Anyway, I met a new friend through Keller today. He's called Shrawn. :)

He's very smart, I feel so inferior there. Hahas. All the smart people gather today. :p

We had lunch at Macs before we went for the IT Show. (Happy to note that I tried Double cheeseburger again, after so long...:)

We roamed rather aimlessly around, looking for digital cameras, iphone accessories, and Ipod Armor. ^^

At 3:30+, Johnston arrived which brings the number of people in our group to 6:
  1. Me
  2. Johnston
  3. Keller
  4. Qi Xiang
  5. Shrawn
  6. Darian
During that time, there was quite a lot of confusion because we split into smaller groups.

Darian went to get coffee, I called Johnston to meet up with him first. Keller and I went looking for Apple Stores while Shrawn and Qi Xiang shopped for Digital Cameras.

There was some hide-and-seek game going on as I went to the First Floor to look for Johnston and Darian while they were moving up to the 6th Floor. LOL
And on that day, Darian's phone had some issues. :o
Not to mention the fact that Johnston and I were calling each other at the same time(which made both of us unavailable and wondering if something was wrong with our phones...Hahas!)

But all's well in the end. :D

Qi Xiang, Keller and Shrawn all bought something.

Lastly, we also visited Trevor's booth there. His company. Ooo, he's rich(as we all know :p)

Envious at the pricey clothing that he was wearing. Hahas!

Okay, got to go, need to attend some meeting. Until next time, probably tomorrow with more interesting stuffs. Hahas! ;)

P.S: Tomorrow, I'm catching a movie and also meeting my fellow Primary schoolmates. :D

Orientation@MJC

I would be amazed if this post turned out to be super short. (Which either would mean that I cut off a lot of details or my summary is freaking imba. Hahas...)
I give up, it's too time-consuming. So just like the pictures do the talking. (not in any order, I really had no time to organise)

Finally, I'm back

Sunday, February 28, 2010
Secret War Journal[28 February 2010]
For some reasons not known to me, I could not access Blogger yesterday. which delayed the post for the Orientation, again. Oh well, maybe I would have time to blog about it later.

Meanwhile, I am trying to finish my homework...

Chinese New Year Celebrations

Sunday, February 21, 2010
Secret War Journal[12 February 2010]
Taking a break from my hectic lifestyle now, hahas.

Since I have insufficient time to post the Orientation(Once again), let's talk about something much more recent, shall we?

NCHS Reunion
Met up with fellow NCHS-ians after the MJC Chinese New Year Celebrations.

Took some time for 4E people to assemble.

It was amazing that we all manage to squeeze in one small Bus 109. Hahas. We're all getting high.

We were in the same bus as the Ximin Secondary School(if I remember correctly)

And we were saying which which school was better. Hahas. Kind of embarrassing because we're in public but it was fun. Really memorable. (and like I said, we're all freaking high)

If we thought we're high, think again...O.o

Path to School
Okay, to be honest, this was the first time I am walking from that Bus Stop to my secondary School.

Did I mention I walk to school when I was secondary one to four?

So not bad, I pretty much used all forms of transport to school in my lifetime. :p

Car, Bus, Walk , Bus, maybe next time would be MRT. Hahas!

Along the way, we started cheering, doing MJC cheers. Starting with O. Hahas!

Can't wait to see how people would react back at Secondary School when they see us cheering for our JC. Hahas...!

Cheering Competition!
Make our presence known by cheering, though we did not head towards the hall to look for teachers. We went looking for our fellow peers first.

Interestingly, we spent so much time talking with our friends that the teachers had already left. LOL

That defeated the purpose of coming back to the school (or does it? ;)

Anyway, I manage to meet Mr Goh, Mr.Rahim and Mrs Sim.

Actually, I met Mrs. Sim at Compass Point. LOL...

Ms Tan already went home. Aww......

Since we were cheering in the Canteen (yes, we're still rather high), other JCs also started cheering. And thus, a friendly competition began....:p

Happy to say that MJC was the most united. Hahas.

But the rest were not bad too, I think we had an unfair advantage because we already warmed up while walking to school. XD

TJC reached school earlier than expected. I though they had some Road Race?! Oh well, glad that they reached earlier, don't need to wait as long. Hahas!

Thanks Beatrice, Wei Ting and Jia Pei for buying us sweets! But how come only got one cola-cola favour? Hahas, joking joking!

Mr Rahim treated us to drinks. Ya da best! :D
All in the name of Total Defence Day. Hahas!

Some photos that had me inside. LOL (hey, I'm camera-shy! LOLS!)
CNY 2010
This picture was taken before I was ready! So unglam! LOL!

CNY 2010

Ah, much better. LOL...
--
Did not attend the class outing though,...too tired from the Cheering and have to clean up my room later so I could not return home late.

Went ahead to Compass Point to return the books which was going to be overdue. And yes! I finished reading the book during the MJC Chinese New Year Celebrations! Opps? >=D

Met up with Chris and Jaytii and co. for Lunch Pt2.

Then went home. *Pant* *Pant*

Resignation of Work

Sunday, February 14, 2010
Secret War Journal[6 February 2010]
Back to the past once more! Whee!...

Am not going to post Orientation@MJC yet, there's a lot of pictures to upload! So it would be rather photo-heavy, beware. Hahas!

Fast forward to the coming Saturday after the Oreintation...
Lazy Lunch
Met up with Darian and Johnston at Bugis MRT Station.

They were quite late because they were rushing from the Canoeing Tryouts that day.

But Johnston very sad, parents later don't allow him to go for Canoeing.

Oh well, on the bright side, he now has more time to focus on studies since Canoe-ing takes up a lot of time. (Transportation to a water body from school and 4 times a week = OMG)

Had MacDonald's once more. Do you realise I keep eating MacDonald's recently? No!.....

I want KFC! :p
--
All of a sudden, I have no idea why but we ended up testing each other on Chemistry Definitions that we had learnt so far.

That day, I hadn't even memorise a single one. So when I reached home later, I went to memorise them all. :p

Opps?

Test me about Relative atomics mass and Relative Istopic mass! (and!...)

Have to thank Darian for this one, hahas. (Hey I was correct about the no.of particles in the mole definition as keyword!!!)

Sad Parting
Went to our workplace and submitted our Letter of Resignation. Finally met my instructor once more since she was not around when I worked for the last time.

She very funny. :)

She was like, "where you go?!"

Me: Not working le.
She: Why?
Me: School started
She: Oh...no wonder you disappeared since last week? Cannot find you. You like missing. Your friend(who is Johnston)'s partner also looking for him.
Me: (hahas!)I was here last week! You were not working that day, I think.
She: When?
Me: Er...last Saturday
She: Oh, I on break. Anyway, study well ah. Bye Bye.
Me: Bye Bye.

Felt a bit sad, she's very funny, made me working there fun.
--
We also talked with a cashier, she tells us to remember to come back whenever free. Okays! Hahas.
--
Choose your path of departure
After this, Johnston went to meet up with Trevor to play bowling while Darian and I headed to our respective homes. :)

Chinese New Year 2010

Saturday, February 13, 2010
Secret War Journal[13 February 2010]
Hey hey! Time to get back to the present.

Hahas

Just here to say Happy Chinese New Year while I continue typing the other posts. ;)

Oh, and Happy Valentine's Day

Isn't this year special? LOL.

Chinese Orchestra Concert

Friday, February 12, 2010
Secret War Journal[31 January 2010][Long Post]
Booklet Cover

Today, we are going to attend Emelia's Concert. Cool huh?
--
Met up with Johnston and his parents at their house first for dinner.

Had part 2 of Halo 3 there though we did not manage to complete the storyline together. Hahas...

Had dinner with Johnston's Family (excluding Emelia, of course, since she's at the Concert Hall already)

After Dinner, we rushed to the venue.

Rock on!
MOE Logo [Black]Met up with Johnston's Relative who had came along to attend Emelia's Graduation Concert.

We took one of the front rows in the Concert Hall so that we can get a better view of where Emelia is during the concert.

Had I mentioned that this was the second time I am in here?
I remember the first time, I was here because I was forced by Ms Lim to attend NCHS' Concert. Hahas. Still, it was worth it in the end so it was not a total waste of money. :)

Anyway, back to Emelia's Concert...

This concert is a graduation ceremony organised by the MOE, Music Talent Development Programme.

In total, there are many secondary schools which participated in this programme. Namely:
  1. Ahmad Ibrahim Secondary School
  2. Beatty Secondary School
  3. Bedok South Secondary School
  4. Chung Cheng High School
  5. Evergreen Secondary School
  6. Manjusri Secondary School
  7. Ngee Ann Secondary School
  8. Pasir Ris Secondary School
  9. Pasir Ris Crest Secondary School
  10. Raffles Girls' School (Secondary)
  11. Siglap Secondary School
--
Under this programme, Emelia learns the Daruan.
--
Pity that I can't find any videos to show you guys how the music sounded. Hahas

In addition, the concert was graced by the presence of a renowned conductor, Ms Ding. Here's her Bio(click to enlarge):
Conductor Bio


My personal favourite should be the last piece(which I can't find the video so you people won't have a clue which song I'm referring to) and the one which includes the drums solo. :)

Photo Time!
Now, let the photo do the talking because they're screaming for attention! (LOL!)

Board Grp Shot3

This was taken immediately after the concert was over. Group photo time! Notice the background? It's the members of the National Chinese Orchestra.

Mindcafe@Funan

Sunday, February 7, 2010
Secret War Journal[27 January 2009]
Alright, I'm like three post behind, can you believe that? Yes.

This is going to be a rather short post. Bear with me. :p

Details Details
This outing was really planned out of the blue and in a kinda short time but it was successful because there was only 4 people coming which made planning and coordination much easier for us. :)

Deciding on s Mindcafe Branch took the longest, I think.

We finally decided on the their very new branch, the Funan IT Mall!
--
I think at this rate, I can be considered their big fans because I had almost visited every single one of their branches around singapore. :D

Branches I had visited before coming for the Funan Branch:
  1. Boat Quay
  2. SAFRA Tampines
After visiting The Mindcafe@Funan, the only branch I had not visited would be the one at Prinsep Street which I have no idea where is it. :p

Call myself a Singaporean. Hahas.
Keller and I first before finally meeting up at Funan since it is along the way.

The agreed timing to meet was to reach the Mall at 12 noon. Meanwhile, Johnston and Darian would be meeting there at 11:45 while Keller and I would be meeting at Compass Point at 11:15.

At 10+, Keller and I were still using computer and I was like nagging him to leave his house since he is farther away from Compass Point than me.

He claimed that the shuttle bus is rather fast so he could definitely make it. (that I have no comments) But! He missed the shuttle bus so he had to run to the nearest MRT Station and rush to Compass Point. (That I have lots of comments. LOL!)

Opportunity Cost
Opps? I had been reading up on Economics (since School already started here on the other side...)

On that same day, Class 4D was going to Yi Cheng's House to  have a Steamboat Lunch. Cool! But I'm not going, hahas.

Before you say I don't attend Class Outings, I did. In fact I just attended one a few days ago before this Steamboat Lunch Outing(which reminds me that I forgot to post about that...which means I'm going to post this first before posting this. ;)

The class was meeting together at Compass Point at 12 noon, so I was there 45 minutes earlier for a totally different reason. Opps? Heehee.

When I reach there that day, no one from Class 4D came yet, tsk tsk. Hahas! Joking!

(Anyway, I might want to run for my life now since the class may come after me since I did not attend the outing. :p Then again, maybe not. :p)

Lunch with Macs
Did I mention my current favourite choice of food for MacDonald's is McSpicy?

Maybe not. :)

 I remember in my early days, I like the Fishburger, then came the Double CheeseBurger(I hate the pickles)

Then I tried McChicken until I found out the addictive taste of McSpicy. :p

Did I mention most of my favourite food are chicken-related? XD

Mmm! Anyway...back to the story, I accidentally took a lot of tissue from the counter because the chicken thigh slipped out from my burger. (Obviously trying to escape from my mouth. Hahas!)

The Games we played
Okay, we went to walk around, wasting time until the hour hand strikes 2 when the games finally begins!

Keller was complaining that the Mindcafe branch there do not have Settlers of Catan. Hahas!

We tried a new game, as always.

This time is a game similar to D&D, called MUNCHKIN.

Johnston won 2 rounds, Keller won 1 round.

Darian and I tie, at 0 wins. (LOL!)

Thanks a bunch to the three who ganged up against me. Hahas.

It's fun when you pit your wits against everybody. Large potential for success and large potential for failure. It makes the feeling of accomplishment all the more great and rewarding.
--
The next game we played was something like a hiking/trekking game to collect artefacts. I'm not exactly sure how to explain the gameplay here nor remember the game name. :p

But it was rather fast-paced and fun.
--
Went home after 5pm when the gaming ends.

4D Outing [Tooth Fairy]

Secret War Journal[25 January 2009][Long Post]
Didn't realise I had not posted about this until I was writing on my next post. :p
Of course, not doing anything injustice to Class 4D, I stopped writing that post and started on this. :)

See? Clap for me! Hee!

Meet up!
The agreed timing was 12 noon at Compass Point and the organiser, Ying Ying, told us to eat lunch.

Personally, I wish to say "WTH?" because what's lunch before 12? Hahas.

You know what's the cute thing? Ying Ying was late. Zzz. :p
--
Anyway, I went to Compass Point early that day to visit the library and borrow some books(will write a review of the books here when I have the time in the future. XD)

Finding the books took a bit too quickly than planned so I stayed in the library for a while, reading books before leaving to head for lunch.

Met up with Cynthia but turns out that she was at the Library. Ironic that I just left Library like 3 minutes ago?

Anyway, went for lunch (Cynthia wasn't hungry so she did not eat, LOL, she on diet ah? JK! :p) before going back to Compass Point to meet the rest of the Class.
--
In fact it was amazing, just half an hour ago, there was hardly anyone at the meeting place but now, around 12, almost the entire class is here already.

Glad to know most of us are on time. :p

But like I said, Ying Ying was late. :p

Tooth Fairy
When all those who were supposed to meet at Compass Point are here, we headed for E!Hub, which is just next to Downtown East.

Arcade!
The Movie did not start right away so we went for Lunch. (Ying Ying never eat lunch before coming and she asked us all to eat lunch first! =.=)
BQ Eating
Went Burger King to have Lunch. I did not eat there since I already ate Lunch beforehand. lol.
So we chatted while our fellow classmates eat their lunch.
--
After our long lunch break, we still had lots of time to go for...Arcade! (Okay, so the heading gave it away...)

Ended up playing some arcade game with Wei Ting, Jia Pei, Bao Lin, Darren.
The Endless Games
For some funny reason,we are able to keep playing, there is a lot of credits in the game that allow us to play again. I think we accidentally scan the card one time too many.

So we ended up playing this game for the entire duration and got ourselves wasted.
--
The Movie(Finally)
Sorry, if you were expecting the movie itself, too bad. I'm not a pirate! :p

So to make up for that, here's the trailer. :)


The movie's nice. Though that may be a bit bias on my side since I love comedies. Hahas.

But hey, let's take it this way, I won't recommend you a comedy movie unless I think it's funny. ;)

So that's your cue to watch the movie! Hahas.

In fact, it's so nice that Bao Lin watched it twice. (okay, though that may not be the reason but still...:)

The storyline is not bad though the beginning was rather confusing in the sense that I do not see the link until it all connects together later.

I think my favourite character would be the professor-looking guy who gave the useful tools such as shrinking paste, catAway, etc to the Main Character. :)

Pool & Dinner
Alright, after the Movie we took some pictures so without further ado...
25012010

25012010

Too tired to list every single one in the picture. So yeah..just look at their cute faces can le. :p

After the cam whoring, we went to the Bowling Galley. but not all of us wanted to play Bowling so the rest of us go play Pool.

My second time playing Pool, still as sucky but it was fun! :)

It's nice to play with friends. Hahas...

Played for one or two hours before I got very hungry.

Dinner! Dinner!
--
But the unexpected happened, (okay I should had expected this but still the chances were sorta low), my fellow classmates who played bowling came up and started playing Pool!

LOL, this is going to drag for hours and I'm hungry!

So Bao Lin, Cynthia and I left the Class and went ahead to eat dinner. (after paying for the Pool, of course)

After that, Bao Lin went back to the class while Cynthia and I headed to the Bus stop.

The Original plan was to take bus 89. But hor I still think very funny, Cynthia can just take bus 3. XD

So! Change of plan, either bus 3 or 89 (so much more practical, not for me though)

If I take bus 3, I need to change bus. Zzz?

So I rather take bus 89, so praying hard for bus 89 to come first.

But Bus 3 came first. Zzzz.

Since it was troublesome to take Bus 3, I did not accompany her. I rather take bus 89! :D

Bully for me. :p

MJC Open House 2010

Friday, February 5, 2010
Secret War Journal[13 January 2009]
Okay, before I start on this post, I, myself, will need some serious recap. LOL!
--
The Original Plan
I was supposed to follow Johnston and friends to SAJC. But it was too inconvenient for me to go there and go back to Meridian JC. So here's another plan I thought out on this day itself.

The Improvised Plan
Remembering Wei Ting was also going to MJC, I asked her when she would be going to MJC Open House.

So yeah, that's pretty much how I ended up going with Wei Ting, Cynthia, and Bao Lin to MJC.

There was a secret clause, I plan to meet Johnston and Jackie there. Johnston would be heading for MJC after SAJC. Jackie would be going TJC first before heading for MJC.

Adam Robinson, founder of The Princeton Review:
No one bothered to teach you the most important academic skill: how to learn. Your teachers (and perhaps you) assumed that the ability to learn in a school setting was a natural gift -- either you were born with the knack or you weren't. This belief is entirely wrong. Learning is a natural ability, but learning in school is another matter. If school were structured in a way that better conformed to how you learn naturally, you wouldn't need me or anyone else telling you how to learn.

Random Quote, yeah. But I think it's cool.

Instincts
I walked all the way to my former residential area and took bus 89 to MJC, only to realise that bus 109 could reach MJC too.
I can board Bus 109 at a nearer bus stop. I could save way more time. LOL.

Let live and let learn. :)

Despite spending so much time walking to that further bus stop, I reached MJC earlier than planned. Hahas.
(Hey, the frequency of Bus 89 is way better than of Bus 109)

Oh! Before I forgot, I reached MJC's back gate and its back gate doesn't write "Meridian Junior College" in big font size. I almost missed that blue-coloured school campus if not for the fact that my instincts told me to alight.
As I was alighting, I was thinking, "if this is not Meridian JC, I'm going to scold somebody"
I think I probably going to scold myself. (for being an idiot) Hahas.
Thankfully, that's the school and I did alight. Phew! It's good to trust your instincts sometimes. :)

Since I was so early, the back door of the MJC was still closed. Gah!

Walked to the main gate. (yes I had that much time to do so) while waiting for the rest to show up. (No, not the magical way, silly)

The Meridians (see their names so cool, so much better than Nan Chiau-rens!) student leaders led us to take the goodie bags. I always feel strange when I take the Goodie Bags first when I enter another school's Open House because it gives me a feeling that I just came for the Goodie Bag. Hee...


Our funny tour guide. :D

Our tour guide is a student leader and he's pretty funny. Hahas

I remember this part of the tour...

Him: This is one of the most important facility, the toilet
(Walk a few more steps)
Him: The Toilets again.

LOL.

I know in MJC, there is one part where there is a lot of toilets(which was the part he showed us) and there is another section in MJC where there is a lot of water-coolers. Talk about clustering. :)

The Principal's Speech
The Principal was not bad. She's pretty good at cracking jokes too. Finally! A principal who can make students laugh(in a good way)!

One thing about her is that she's pretty realistic(yay!) which I'm sure would cause much confusion during her speech because she seems to imply that we should all go Poly instead. Hahas.

One thing sad about MJC is about the retainment rate. Haiz...

During the Principal's Speech, Johnston(using dalton's phone so I did not know who was calling me) called me but as I was in a lecture(sort of) I hung up.

Opps?

Hee Hees

The Game Club
Okay, that's short for Intellectual Game Club but I'm lazy to type. (okay so, I typed in full in the end, but I don't think that's the point. I think)

Spent a few hours playing in there.

Bao Lin is very pro in Blorkus! ( I hope I spell correctly)

Played some advanced version of Tic-Tac-Toe and Stress.

:D

Earned myself a scar there. Thanks Wei Ting/Bao Lin for the plaster. Hahas...
--
Cutting a lot of parts because I'm short of time so here we go!)
--
Lunch and Shopping!
After the games, with Johnston not anywhere in sight, we met up with the rest of the 4D Girls (wonder where the boys went to...)

After talking and sharing what had happened at the Open Houses, we headed off to White Sands for Lunch since the canteen at MJC was running low on food supply. :p


Upon reaching KFC, I received a call from Dalton again, this time I picked up and realised that it was Johnston. Hahas.

John: Emm, where are you now?
Me: White Sands
John: And where is that?!

John told I meant the White Sands Resort. LOL!

Sorry, my bad for the double meaning. It was unintentional!
-
After that, I tagged along with Eunice, Wei Ting, Clarissa, Cynthia, Bao Lin, and Siew Yan to go shopping before we all headed for Library and homed!

With that, THE END! :D:D:D:D

P.S: Told you I'm going to cut a hell lot of parts. Hahas!

First Days of School

Friday, January 29, 2010
Secret War Journal[28/29 January 2009][Long Post]
--28 Jan 2009--
Well, today is a strange day...

For starters, I was almost late for school. *Shake head*

When the bus stop was in sight, I saw the bus that I was suppose to board leaving the bus stop. Ok...

It was 6:35.

From early to almost late. Awesome! Not.

Waited for like 20 minutes for that bus to re-appear.

Thought for sure I was going to be late on the first day of school. :p

Reached the school at 7+. Thank yer gods!
--
Oh, it turned out that I was on the same bus with Bao Lin, Clarissa, and Eunice. Wow, did not see them until I alighted.
--
That's when I realise...that I was at the back gate. (oh silly me)

And here's a problem I did not anticipate, the seniors only open one path for us, the hall.

And I told people to meet at General Office, which was at Main Gate. OMG!

Saw Jackie when I was starting to panic.
In the end, I still ran for the General Office. Bad me.

Met up with the rest.

First saw Jia Xin, Cheryl and Marcus. Marcus helped me checked my Admin Group(AG). Thanks!

We're all pretty much split up though. (as expected, so no harm here)

Turns out that I'm in the same group as Cheryl and Lai Yin. O.o
--
Mass talks about several stuffs.

Talks about:
  1. A Levels
  2. Subject Talks (which wasn't of much help since they allocated little time for each subject and there was a time constraint)(at the end, we're all restless from sitting in the hall for so long)
  3. Course Registration
  4. University Talks (I was assigned to attend the NTU Talk)
--
Dilemma
About course registration, I was having trouble deciding between H2 Economics, H1 Economics, H1 History.

My other subjects were decided:
  1. Physics H2
  2. Chemistry H2
  3. Maths H2
  4. General Paper H1
  5. Project Work H1
  6. Mother Tongue Language H1 (I don't want this!)
Decided to consult my parents about this(rare). The Pros and Cons seems to balance each other. Whatever happened to clear choices?

Guess it's just what I deserves for helping so many people pray that we all enter the same school...

Cynthia is going to have operation tomorrow, will return two weeks later. Wish her Fast Recovery.

Notice that I skipped a hell lot of details for these two days. I apologise but I currently have some personal problems on my side. Some troubling visions appeared before me and given past records, they have a tendency to come true(which for this case I hope not)
I don't wish to discuss what visions because I don't want them to become self-fulfilling.

I mean, if it really happened, I won't be able to forgive myself. Because God have given me prior knowledge, given me several hints and warnings but I did nothing.

Maybe that's why I'm weak, I want to be naive. I just pray that things would sort themselves out even though I know that it probably well never.
I'm an idiot, imbecile, moron.

So many things I turned a blind eye, wishing(willing it) it to be something else.

Delusions, yes, I live in delusions.
So many things I could have done to change my future(in a good way) but I just never got the courage to do so. The PSLE Incident was a good one...

I hope MJC would be the right choice for me. Thinking back now, TJC may not be suited for me because I took too much time to reach there.

But even MJC is sorta far. But that's already one of the nearest available here. :o

So what are those visions trying to tell me? What am I trying to tell myself? I wish I knew..

By the way, I decided to pursue for 4H2 subjects which would be very demanding. I wish I will not regret. I cannot afford to. I came so far to fulfil one of my promises, I just can't be beaten down at the crucial moment.

Must not.

How am I going to face myself in the future if I waver at studies? (My main driving force for studies at work here... - -Guilt)

Maybe that's why the visions came. Threaten to make me more guilty of myself to study harder.

But isn't that too heavy a price to pay?
Isn't two(both dear to me, one that would forever be the one dearest to me) death enough to create boundless guilt and regret in my mind?

Must you add another? Aren't you afraid I would sink so deep that I would never snap out of depression and just give up on studying?

Or is that your work, Satan? If it is, I will do everything to prevent it.
Visions can be averted, that I'm sure. But you have chose a strong case, to avert that would be beyond me, (and normal humans for that matter)

God help me...

Truths and lies would be my undoing, I guess. Such is the path of Destruction, there is no other outcome. Maybe I should distance from everyone else so I will never feel the pain of losing another person I knew.
Good idea, just that being human, I would also die from the social isolation.

"One who trust everyone is a fool. One who trust no one is a fool"

So true. Yet I'm still  a fool. It's all boils down what you meant by "Trust". If I don't even trust myself, how do you expect to trust someone else? Well, maybe that's possible.

But I rather lie or feign ignorance to bury the truth forever.

The Guilt of spending so few time with my love ones will always be ingrained into me...Amen

(So sorry for this sort-of mood dampening Section here :S)

29 January 2009
Today, I woke up earlier than the first day and took one bus earlier than yesterday.

And surprise, surprise, the passengers from yesterday all came earlier today. The same me, a girl, and a woman took this earlier bus. Jesus.

Once again, the bus got as crowded. LOL.

And surprise! Siew Yan, Bao Lin, Eunice, Clarissa were on the same bus. (again. LOL. Did everyone read my mind to take the earlier bus? Hahas)
--
Cut things short, we learnt two dances today.

First One

Second One

--
Met a great deal of friends today and attended this Talent Management Unit Talk. O.o

Alright, that's pretty much it. See ya

Jia Xin is no longer going to be in Meridian but TJC. Congrats to her! :)

Some part of me wish I could enter TJC too but oh well...

So how was my holidays
In a way, great!

Most of my goals for this holiday was pretty much fulfilled.

13 out of 17, in fact. See Wishlist

Woots.

Met quite a few times with my 'ld good pals. Only pity was that I missed the stayover because I had to take care of siblings. T.T

LOL.

School's going to start and we're all back in the same school. Wonder what's going to happen there though.

A year of happenings?
A year of fun?
A year of happiness?

Maybe. (I didn't say Perhaps! >=D)

Of course, let us all aim for good grades for A Levels (as Always)

Speaking of which, I will need to write a list of goals I want to achieve for the next two years...=]

Another Personality Quiz
This is becoming weekly, which would likely continue as long as I read the same papers. :p
Credits to My Paper. As always.

So sorry to readers who can't read Chinese Again.
