.:. Irritated .:.
Just trust my primary school friends to irritate me when we only contact once in such a long time... She knew that I hate people gossiping about me and purposely kept saying that a boy who was in my class was my bf.(I won't mind people gossiping if he's nice but he's not) Well, and that's not the only thing... She kept going 'oi' and calling me by my initials. That's the last straw... I'm going to ignore her until I'm less red.
The sci BRP is going fine, except that we changed the experiment without telling the teacher... I'm not sure if it's ok but we're left with no choice since we couldn't find her. So we're going to present to her our new project tomorrow...
I'm a good crapper and I've proven it. I got a reasonably high mark for my english ERIL assignment. It basically require us to give reasons on why we chose that book for LA SIA storytelling and I gave lots of reasons and pleased the teacher... The first piece of work that has really impressed a teacher!
We had the musica viva concert today in school and I missed a pretty good part of band. I must say that's a fresh experience compared to blowing my lungs out but then again, the performance it quite expected. 'Pastance' played instruments like lute, percussion, recorder, and many more and of course, there's singing... I thought that it would be more interesting but I won't be too greedy and say that I didn't enjoy it.
Recently, there's quite a lot of news about the removal of 'Musical Fountain' and the newly opened 'Song of the Sea'. I've been to the Musical Fountain only once that that was fantastic. "I have many good memories","Wonderful performances","A must-see thing"... Many people would be sorry that it has to go after so many years there, to mke way for the IR. Then again, The new Song of the Sea also promises us exciting shows and experience. I'm not totally againist this change and hope that I can go there soon.

.:. Term 2 week 1 is over .:.
As the heading says, term 2 week 1 is officially over.
The most dreaded L.A. SIA is finally over and I'm so glad. I was pathetic during the storytelling so I don't feel like elaborating on it. I have to do a post storytelling report and that should be easy since I forgot my script. It's easy to write crap on how nervous I was on stage.
The plants for the BRP science is not growing well but I repeating the test for the sake of an extra mark or so. Sometimes, after a long day a school,I would be too lazy to measure the amount the water and sugar so I'd just pour some water into the containers... I'm also modifing some of the results so that do not seem so silly.
The art turn out well except that some of the deco (e.g.branches) dropped of the stool. I'm currently working on the DPJ that the teacher wants. I simply compiled all my work last term so I have to paste them into a scrapbooksince the teacher has changed. And I realised that art requires a lot of printing pictures from the computer.
I'm having physics this term, after Bio the previous term. We 'observed' the bunsen burner during lab session and it was quite fun. As in not very stressed and boring... We have not even started on the chinese SIA and we're suppose to know what to do by monday. Sigh... And not to meantion that the file-making-process for chinese is so tedious.
Wednesday PE lesson was painful. My stomach muscles were sooooo in pain and it didn't help that I laughed too much for that 2 days. Ouch! I wasn't able to stretch during dance lesson as such. We're having Musical Viva next week and I'm looking forward to seeing 'Pastance' perform in the audi.
Kids central is showing 'Prince of Tennis' at 3 from 7 April onwards.

.:. Holiday almost over .:.
Sigh... Today is the last day of the school holiday. I'll have to go to school tomorrow.
The first thing that comes to mind is that I certainly do not want to be the first group to have to do the English SIA as I haven't fully prepared for it. I dread the moment I have to go to the front of the class and do the storytelling...
Next is the geog project. We have not decide on how to present and as I didn't do much for the slights, I am extremely willing to do the presentation. Just make sure that we find some time and sit together to decide on what to say.
And there is still the science BRP project. I've been trying my best to grow the beans and prevent the ants from getting them... I doesn't seem like a groupwork at all. I had to replant them after they refused to grow and then, the ants tried to carry them away yesterday so I had to start massacring the ants.
Finally is band prac on tues. I'm not sure how I'm going to carry the french horn all the way from school and survive climbing the bridge. At least I've greased the instrument so it's not that stiff... Basically, all the rest of my projects are fine and working so I not that worried. I also haven't woke up later than 8.30 so I don't think I'll feel that drained.
Now for the fun part... I finished watching:
Graves of the Fireflies,
Hana Kimi and
Whisper of the Hearts
I intended to watch more Studio Ghibli movies but could not find them on youtube so... And I'm left with 1 final part for Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. And I've watched Bleach anime until 30+ episode. I currently stopping the manga as I want to wait till there's enough chapters for me to watch throughout the day during the next holiday or so.

.:. Survey .:.
We went to do a survey at City Hall MRT station on Sat at about 1 pm. I didn't include that in the last post coz that's already too long. Now I know what it feels to be ignored and pushed aside... Most of the people simply wave their hands at us and ran away. When we asked some people who were waiting for people, they said they don't have time... 20 minutes later, they were still there. I was so irritated by them.
Maybe Singaporeans can try to be more friendly and think for others, instead of doing what is convenient for oneself. I think that everyone should have a chance to do a survey or something so that they would be not so rude and selfish.
We did our LA storytelling SIA today... Ended up using msn and so on...

.:. Camp @ school .:.
Long ime no update my blog... A bit lazy since it's holiday and i want to watch youtube while I can.
I had lifeskill camp in school last week, a 3 days 2 nights one. Actually, it can be considered 4 days since on tues, we had no lesson at all. The camp kicked of on wed, and I wore my over-sized camp tee to school.
The trip to Pasir Ris was fun. A bit draining, considering to amount of strange and rigorous exercise we had to do. The filling of the bottles was the easiest, as we used the cones which are for marking the position to act as funnel to allow water to flow inside. Still, the mat thing was ridiculous. We spent so much time on it, and i almost 'broke' my left hand when someone sat on it... After screaming at her, I was able to squeeze my hand out. Everything seems to be in a frenzy... I cannot remember much except that Eunice Loo was next to me, wincing and squirming as we squat on one leg and tried to balance on one hand... Overall, we won 2nd for the first section. The section was building of a structure with 3 functions. I acted as the father... Actually, i was gritting my teeth to stop laughing. We won it anyway.
That evening, we watched 'Over the Hedge'. Can be consider the most comfortable part of the camp since we were able to enjoy the air-con in the audi. The sec 2s were at the Quadrangle watching 'School of Rock'. I didn't sleep more than 3 hours that day. Especially since Eunice(Loo) started to entertain us in the middle of the night with her jokes and dancing... I won't blame her since i wasn't sleepy either. Woke up the whole class with my loud handphone alarm the next day at 5.15 and went for an early bath... Must say that the water really wasn't that cold.
After breakfast, the whole level left straight for Mt Faber. Had the amazing race first. Nothing much, except lots of running. Then came the seal sports. I love the 'Dragon Boating Race'. We sat on floats/tyres and had to paddle backwards. So much fun! The final part was the hiking. The climbing of the stairs was more torturous than the actual climb. The hike was worthwhile though... The view was something we don't get to see everyday.
Talentime was on that evening. I must admit that our item wasn't that outstanding but it doesn't really matter... I enjoyed myself throughout the process eventhough it was a bit stressful sometimes. Mixed with a few more friends and forge stronger friendship... Well, the campfire was nice as we get to scream and jump(i won't say dance) about to the songs... The whole level formed a ladder and ran about! Lol... 102 formed a circle and fool around with Mr Mackintosh(have I meantioned before that he's a tribe leader in scotland?). We were the last class to leave the field later... Couldn't bear to do that. I would never believe how fun that was if i personally wasn't there... Slept better and didn't woke the class up with my alarm.
Had Nanzhong Quan early next morning and found out that our movements were different from the ones the Sec 2s learnt. Had telematch and the final clean up. I'm glan we didn't get posted to the toilets. Final item on the list was in the hall. We had a last survey and prize giving... Our class won the prize on which class is most dedicated to the camp theme! I caught my face at the last photo sharing session...
Now for the complaining part.
- The food provided by the school couldn't be worst... The lunch provided by the seal sport was so nice, especially the chilli. If all the meals could be that nice, it would be wonderful...
- Our class was split into different sections for a few occasions. I wasn't so happy since i'm always with the second half of 101... The more depressing part is that eventhough we're competing in different groups, we cannot resist cheering for our classmates. I afraid that 101 is not please with us and that might cause some friction.
- There are no enough toilets alocated to each class. Why didn't they want the pupils to use the toilets in the science blocks? Plus, some people are simply unhygienic. They didn't even bother to clean up when they dirtied the cubicle.
- I didn't sleep more than 8 hours for 2 days. That pathetic...
Overall, it was quite fun and enjoyable... How I wish I can remain in that carefree mood for a longer period of time...

.:. Seat rearrangement .:.
My last post was about my seat at the back of the class, so this post is about the rearrangement of the seating position.
I'm currently seating at the most right, back corner of the class... I'll be changed to the middle row soon... I'll be seating at the second row from the front, the person sitting on the right in the row with 3 seats. Sounds complicated?
Our talentime thingy is turning out horrible... Our dance is not working out and it's less than 1 week away... I'm frustrated by it...
