today was I & E day
i m surprised that so many pple turned up
but those 2 lovebirds carried on their date till today
so we concluded that they were "exhausted from previous activities the night before"
thus being unable to come to sch today
nvm then... overall I & E was an interesting event
but too lengthy thus making it boring
the response was that the event was terrible...
and i m protesting to claims that i didnt do my job well cos everyone is using "the briefing" against me
i went to the briefing
but all i was told there was to bring the class to the next location when the time is up
and to approach any of the 4 lims for assistance
and i was given that piece of paper everyone got today
that's the end of the briefing
we werent specified any station to visit at an area
cos we were free to visit any station in the specified area...

i went to the geo lecture after the debriefing was over
but i have to admit...
i wasted all the time spent there
after the long and tiring day...
when u sit in an air-con room listening to someone go on and on about something u wun be able to keep awake
i remembered at 1 point of time that we were on the 1st set of notes
then i dozed off
suddenly i heard a crash
it was my 2 other sets of notes falling to the ground
but i only found out that my notes had fallen at the end of the lecture... lol
then i dozed off again

o yea i finally got the pics from kim today
those pics from kim's camera
the main events in the camera are that of
Valentine's Day where 5 of us(excluding me) went out...
next was the trip to wee beng's house
followed by the day down at east coast park
currently i have 38 of the photos uploaded...
when i get the cd back from jiamin i will finish uploading em
for now... just visit http://s49.photobucket.com/albums/f281/luke281913/1306 to see the pics currently uploaded

YAY!!!! the dreaded day has finally come to an end!
surprisingly everything was so smooth sailing...
i finished 5 out of 6 jobs today!
jewel suggested dat i distributed my jobs to a few pple
its quite a gd idea
cos we managed to settle everything as a class =)
sort of...
though i thought the proposal for the stall was done 50% of the time between me and jiamin and xueqin
seems like everyone cant wait to leave
neway we got a great suggestion from amanda's group
which the whole class agreed with...
we decided to make floats!
nup not those big rubber tubes/styrofoam boards
but the drink =)
i hv nvr drank a float b4...
and some pple were giving me ideas like hw one flavour clashed with another
and hw another flavour will go well with another
i hv decided to start trying em
or i will nvr be able to give suggestions...

btw pple who want lockers plz inform me asapexcept for those who have alrdy told me today

we ended early... u culd say dat
cos i was expecting us to go on until around at least 6
and we completed the main stuff b4 5
all's left is mainly the friendship dat project
which we shld be able to finish b4 next wed =)

yup i feel more relaxed...
though i think i scared a few pple off today
cos of the busy schedule i set
4 pple didnt turn up today...
though 2 pple are understandable...
but cant they pick a better day for their date???

i realised something
i set up a class forum
den i forgot to tell the class about it
then when they suggested setting up a mode of communication in the class
i said i alrdy did set up a class forum
but noone was posting on it
lol wad an idiot i am
of cos noone wuld be posting
cos i hvent told the class about it >.<

tml is I and E day
its gonna be a boring day till 2:45pm
cos gates wun be open till den
and we must complete this tour around
seriously the best day to pon sch wuld be tml lor...
and those pple chose the wrong day...
o well... cya all pple tml!

today's entry will be very very very long
cos a tonne of stuff happened today
right... so lets start with today's busy day
we had long long lessons den i had to go for some briefing at 2pm...
i missed lunch and starved for the next 4 hrs+ =(
den i went to photographic society with ken jia min lydia and mabel
the tour around was ok... quite interesting but i still reconsidering whether i wanna stay in dat cca
i m also under a heavy workload... i noticed i have 6 matters to attend to..
busy life

and many pple r losing stuff lately
lydia lost her hp in sch today
its kinda sad cos of all the contacts in it
and its rather had to get it all back
and zkai's today's highlight
cos his whole bag got stolen...

we went to J8 mac to eat dinner
den we sat at the 1st seat from the entrance
which was like a few steps away from the counter
and so we queued up and were constantly chatting
when we turned around after buying our food
zkai asked
where's my bag?
it totally vanished into thin air...
obviously it had been taken away by someone on purpose
or i wuld say the bag was stolen
right from under our noses too
it was like so close... all we had to do was turn slightly and the whole table wuld be in sight
and the bag got taken away
from close proximity...
so we informed the manager and we started a brief search within the area
it was futile cos the thief apparently had made off with the bag and was unlikely to hang around
we covered just a short range from mac and decided to return
den we ate our dinner...
i m kinda impressed dat zkai actually still had the appetite to eat
he lost a huge amount of stuff of which some are quite important
apparently his bag alone cost $159
and he had an iPod Nano in it... which costs about $300+
and he lost all his homework and notes...
and tickets for the aj choir concert
about 7 of em which amounts to $105
another important item... which is insignificant to some of us and probably half crumpled in some cases
was the project work question paper...
dats an A level paper lor
and u cant get a replacement for it
nor can you photocopy it due to copyright issues
and all those notes and homework
its gonna be tough redoing everything all over again
oh ya i saved 2 of his reader digests though
cos he lended it to me
but he lost the 3rd reader digest neway...
after dinner we went to make a police report
surprisingly zkai ate everything
lately he's obsessed with food... and to think he used to eat like 3 mouthfuls and say he's full
and he even ordered extra food today...u need a diet zkai =)
o yea... we also asked whether mac had security cameras...
but apparently dat place's security level is nearly 0
none of the staff even noticed anything
and there was no cameras in there
mayb we shld suggest dat
install security cameras in fast food outlets too...

neway we walked all the way to the police post opposite the scouts association
it looked like it was closed... but police stations dun close do they?
turns out the officer on duty was taking a break...
neway when he inquired about the incident
the 1st thing he said was
"so you thought you could leave your bags there?"
when we said that we were around 5 steps away from our seat
sounds like he was criticising us...
i aint signing a GEMS(Go the Extra Mile for Service) card for him
and i think that's about the end of my long long long entry today
so many stuff happening... and its like the 1st time i came across theft which happened a few steps away from me...
oh yea... i forgot to mention
laziness is a virtue
i was planning to buy a new bag from J8 last week
but culdnt be bothered to...
gd thing i didnt...
or dat dude wuld hv koped both bags
and both me and zkai will be filing a report today
i wuld have had my GC in my bag
my precious tool for all those complicated maths equations and graphs
and my ummm big sized multi-purpose "black and white color" gameboy =|
wad a suay day...

sian... life is so busy
there's homework... responsibilities...so much stuff to do
with the friendship day project, proposal for a games/food stall and physics remedial...
which all will fall on thursday...
i cant imagine hw thurs will be like
its so hard to find any time with all the CCAs and lessons
i m so stressed out
and pple arent helping by depressing me
i m starting to doubt whether i made the right choice
but nvm... since i m in it alrdy
i will do my best out of it
no wonder wee keong managed to live through it...
we had FOUR class leaders then...
and it was still a little tiring...
but with half the number
and twice the work
it no longer seems as easy as it is

I m writing this entry for 22/06
I owe the class an apology for my previous blog entries
zkai was right
i didnt give 22/06 a chance...
but over the time
i have realised that i was in the wrong
22/06 is a great class after all
and i have learnt to accept this class
this class is lively
and i can see many enthu pple
in fact it has so far been much better than i have expected
mayb that emptiness is slowly filling after all...
i know that many pple visit my blog
but only a minority leave a message at the tagboard
so i cant tell who really reads my blog
but if u still blame me for my previous entries
sorry for wad i wrote

I checked my Johari window today
seems like i m a complex person
cos there are no traits with a distinct majority
thx to Kim neway for being the 1st person to do my Johari Window

i also noticed something too...
someone described me as complex, introverted, nervous, warm, tense
lol and i got no idea who this person is
mayb i wuld hv agreed with that in sec 4
but i have clearly changed...
currently most of the people think i am helpful and friendly =)
and some pple think i am clever, dependable, intelligent,knowledgable,logical,observant,responsive and warm
so happy that pple see so many other positive traits in me
thx to everyone who did the johari window for me...
those who hvent done it pls visit http://kevan.org/johari?name=Lai Xin Chu
thx!

finally... we managed to have a herd outing today =D
and everyone turned up! it was so hard to find a day where everyone was free
we met in town at 11am today
at Cathay Cineleisure for "V for Vendetta" at 11.20
me and tim turned up at exactly 11am
chris came long ago at 10:30 but he refused to say why
den tx came at 11:15
den dugie came at 11:20
and where's zk?
at 11:10 we asked him
and he said he was at Orchard
so we tot he's reaching...
at 11:20 he said he was at City Hall
OMG SIA!
wdh he doing at city hall???
dun he know where cathay is???
so he turned up at 11:30
and dats cos he took a taxi here =/
dotz...

the show was a gd one neway though we missed the starting...
its MUCH MUCH MUCH better than Date Movie
but got 1 scene a bit unlikely...
"V" the main char had about 15 guns pointed at him
SUB MACHINE GUNS
and they all fired tgt...
after they all emptied 1 round of magazine into him... he was still standing
and u might think... dats cos he got special powers or something... mayb invulnerable to bullets?
after the fight was over... he revealed a metal plate underneath his clothes...
and it was full of holes...
hw the heck did he survive dat???
o well he died in the end neway...
the starting fireworks and ending fireworks were great...
a movie everyone shld catch =)
interesting storyline and nice fight scenes too...

we went to eat after dat... at some sushi place at taka
cant rmb the name though
i tried out this plate of sushi...
2 sushis...$5 =|
o well... it was nice neway
the meals were kinda small... not very filling but it was gd enuff

after dat tx zkai and dugie had to go...
so me chris and tim went to play pool at lucky plaza
alright my pool degraded again
but i think i played better than tim and chris =/
my angles were all slightly wrong...
must train up more...
or i might lose to kim!!!

My rat died today...
its health had been deteriorating all along
and its systems had been malfunctioning
but before i went out this morning it was still alright...
i guess its condition took a turn for the worse while i was away
and i pronounced it dead at 6:43pm =(
i got a new rat =)

its sensitivity is so much better and its much better than my previous one
rather saddening though... my old rat had won me quite a few dota matches...
too bad it had to go...
rest in peace lil one...

Neway i got formally elected as the class leader today...
Mrs Yim calls it the class PRESIDENT
sounds so much nicer =)
she was saying... we need to elect a class president
and elections ended in 5 sec
o well... so my 1st job was to brief the class on the friendship day project
it went something like this:
me: class, we need to do a class project for International friendship Day next next fri...blah blah blah... so anyone got any suggestions?
class: *TOTAL SILENCE*
me: we can do about nething for this project, but we must discuss the link between Singapore and Britain
class: *TOTAL SILENCE*
me: *suggests some ideas*
class: *TOTAL SILENCE*

den someone spoke... i cant rmb hu neway
den after dat...
me: so what materials do we use for this project? color pencils? paint? markers?
class: *TOTAL SILENCE*
Mrs Yim: dats hw i feel when i talk to the class... no response at all
me: *totally agrees*

neway there are class positions available if ne1 wants to be a subject rep
these positions are still empty:
Treasurer/Secretary, CIP rep, Economics Rep, Physics Rep, Geography Rep
and i aint sure whether we need a History rep and GSC rep since there are few pple taking these 2 subjects
To anyone who wants to be the treasurer/secretary: I am currently holding the class fund... if u wanna be the treasurer plz get the class fund from me...however, the balance of the class fund is currently at 20 cents =)

I suddenly remembered dat survey on IVLE today... since i had nth to do i went to do dat survey...
then i started exploring IVLE...
added everyone i culd remember to the IVLE friends list...
so i guess everyone will see my name on their list
neway i also set up a class forum and a class group so pls bookmark the forum =)
To find the forum... from the mainpage click on add forums


u should see the following screen


den... scroll down until u find PDG2206


click on it to find the forum i set up...
just check the box and click the "bookmark" button


=)

So dats how the story goes...
the pple in 21/06 thinks 22/06 is happy
the pple in 22/06 thinks 21/06 is happy
22/06 is not happy
21/06 is not happy
we all arent happy
yet we look happy
is that it?
everyone seems to be hiding behind a mask
who feels really happy nowadays?
i dun feel happy
i cant tell you who's happy either
but i can probably come up with a long list of sad pple
somehow 21/06 pple r wanting to come to 22/06
sadly we r full
if only we culd kick pple out of the class
i wuld gladly make space for the pple coming in
not that i dun like 22/06
its just dat i like 13/06 more
much more
its not easy to arrange bonding for 21/06 and 22/06
like we planned
there's just no time...
its a tough job...
so what can we do?
we must do something abt it...
i feel so helpless...

Lessons started officially today... lessons which i will be going thru for the next 8 months
22/06 is doing well... i m happy for us
the best lesson today was probably PW where we did our introductions...
lots of laughter and jokes... had a lot of fun
but... i feel empty inside me
there's something missing
the atmosphere is not there
i dun feel the same
what's missing?
my mood is starting to sink
back to just b4 i stepped into jc
back to b4 i met 13/06
it feels empty
somehow i feel weird
there's a very big gap in me
i might be laughing
but i dun feel happy inside me
why...
can i get over this?
is it possible?
can 22/06 fill this emptiness in me?
mayb...
mayb nt...
seriously...
the last time i was happy
was when i met up with the peeps to go kim's house
i hvent been happy since...
13/06 meets each other less and less often...
and i get more and more depressed...

We did the personality test today... it took abt 3 hrs but here's my results:
Quick, ingenious, stimulating, alert, and outspoken. Resourceful in solving new and challenging problems. Adept at generating conceptual possibilities and then analyzing them strategically. Good at reading other people. Bored by routine, will seldom do the same thing the same way, apt to turn to one new interest after another.

yup ENTP... dats my results from today's personality test... wonder wad career i am suited for

neway the timetable's out... i shld be done typing it out by 10pm so get it from me if u want
our lectures with 21/06 are all at the same time except maths and civics... it isnt dat bad actually...since we all still see each other... and i feel like playing mahjong again =P

another thing i must point out...
PLZ stop calling me "class leader" when any of u address me
when u do dat u r seperating me from the rest
i feel awkward
and it tires me out
so pls pple... dun stress me

Finally... i get to wear my new uniform for the first day...
OMG sia...
the quality is nt gd... the uniform material traps heat...
and its sooooooooo warm
and i start to think... the AJ uniform doesn't look so gd after all
i miss the metal buttons
and the green pants
and the food in CHS
and i miss CHS

Neway... met my new class today
Now i know everyone's names in the whole class =)
but i only talked to amanda and jewel today...
the rest of the class whom i nvr met b4 disappeared
i didnt see them for the whole day...
hopefully we can organise bonding for 21/06 and 22/06 on Wed
either dat or 13/06 just stick tgt on Wed =)
I miss 13/06 =(

Oh and i forgot to mention some pple in my last entry
opps =|
chris, jia xin, mun kiat and james... but i nt sure abt whether they take chem
did i miss ne1 out?

I realised something yesterday but i forgot about it
den i remembered again today... so might as well blog abt it
Hopefully Miss Saras doesn't visit my blog but i must point out dat after 2 years of learning chemistry from her... our class doesn't seem to have any interest left in this particular subject lol
there's about less than 10 pple from our class last year that came to AJ
and i believe that all of us with the exception of patrick are either in 21/06 or 22/06
of which only 1 is in 21/06 which is tian xiang
and the rest of us is in 22/06
tian xiang takes H1 Chem
while 22/06 doesn't even has chem at all
I still remember Miss Saras telling us not to take chemistry at A level
lol... has her msg really gone thru?
or is it just our poor chem knowledge?
but its quite obvious... noone wants to take chem lol... influenced by our chem teacher >.<

School is starting soon...
and we will be in diff classes
I m considering going for the position of class leader in 22/06
since Wee Keong is in 21/06 and we will need a new class leader
but i dunno if i can do the job well
Am I gd enuff to take on this position?
Will everyone support me? =)

Neway... herd outing got postponed to next Sat...
but decision on our activities is getting weirder and weirder
neway... had a mass conversation on msn with part of the class
Mabel insists i must mention her... so i did...
and Jia min say must mention that she invited everyone into a conversation too
but she was inviting one by one lol
and i invited everyone else in 1 go
its always nice to know more shortcuts =)

met up with the peeps again today
we were going to kim's house =)
went for lunch at S11 in Bishan...
turns out the pple i tot wuld turn up didnt and the pple i didnt know wuld turn up did
there was me, wee keong, tian xiang, zi tong, pui kit and kim at lunch
den we took a bus to kim's house...
met joan there but she wasnt in the mood
so she left early... very early... about 10 min after she walked in
so we played mainly mahjong... and pool
i played a lot of pool today...need to train up my poor pool skills =)
surprisingly i won in mahjong today... though it isnt a lot but at least i won lol
been losing so much... mayb its cos marcus wasnt here... he went to thailand today
dunno for wad also
den i played 6 matches of pool with kim
cos she kept insisting on another match
o well... the score was 5-1 neway =P
me 5 of cos lol
mayb my pool isnt dat bad after all...

too bad the rest of the class peeps didnt come today...the more the merrier mah...
I miss 13/06 alrdy...

Life is like a rubber band
when u r stretched
you will eventually go back to your original shape over time
but when you are stretched beyond what you can take
you go back to your original shape with a small cut in you
and when you are stretched beyond your limit multiple times
the cut deepens
and eventually
the rubber band breaks

the mental strength of a person is the thickness of a rubber band
the thicker the rubber band, the more it can take
the thickest rubber band cannot be damaged no matter how u twist or bend it
but the weakest rubber band can snap at the smallest impact

i have taken a blow
i have been stretched
yet i have not fallen
i have not broken down
i shall fix the cut in me
i will not let myself fall
and i shall live like a thick rubber band

but what about the rubber bands that have been stretched excessively?
such that they are unable to take another stretch
we will all work together and fix the cut in them
we will close their wounds
and we will help them to recover

was invited out to ice skating today...
rejected previously but suddenly decided to go today
so i met up with han yang, teck ching and jia xin at yio chu kang...and off we went to jurong
zkai and ken had already been there since morning so we were meeting up with em there

my mood wasnt in ice skating at all... cos i was still rather depressed
but i noticed the rink...
it was soooo crowded and full of people... and the surface ice had all melted such dat pple were skating more on water than ice... it looked totally like water skiing to me
met pee sheng and some of his classmates from cj there...suddenly realised i hvent seen him in ages

i think i spent most of the time at the side of the rink... cos i wasnt really in the mood to skate... just wanna cheer up...but i didnt really cheer up there... sadly

fell a few times today... a new wound near the same spot as my previous wound... and the old wound opened up again...o well it cant be helped if i m gonna learn hw to brake...but its terrible to fall there... cos its all water on the floor... my gloves were so wet it was dripping water... and the water is really cold...

we went for dinner at Secret Recipe at J8 after dat... i tried to look happier but inside me i was still sad

neway... i feel a bit better nw
so i wanna apologise if i seemed over aggressive in the previous post
but no... i wun take those words back...
cos it was wad was going thru me then...
and i believe 13/06 feels the same too

it happened
class 13/06 got splitted
Chem and lit on 1 side; geo, GSC and history on another side
i was expecting it
thought it wuldnt matter
but i feel terrible now...depressed...
the wonderful class that made me happy
the class that livened up my life
its splitted into two...
dam the pple who joined this combi
is it possible for 13/06 to continue bonding?
for 21/06 and 22/06 to bond together?

dun bother me nw... my mood is terrible
i feel dam sad and depressed
i m thinking of wad i planned earlier
dao the pple who caused the split
sounds evil...but i dun care nw
DAMN!

Watched Date Movie today with the class...
the feeling came back again after the movie
the feeling i had when i watched the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy
dunno whether to laugh or cry
felt like banging my head on the wall
ok the show was funny
but overall its exaggerated and lame...

o well... there arent many gd movies recently... and scary movie 4 is coming out... dunno whether to watch or not... cos date movie was made by TWO of the SIX writers of scary movie... when all six come together... how bad will it be? =|

lol might as well talk about some parts of the show which they koped from other movies...

1 scene was at this jewellery shop... then frodo from lord of the rings came into the shop and brought this ring to the counter and asked "How much can i get for this?"
then behind the wizard was saying "no no! that ring can destroy all evil!"
then the clerk said "50 bucks for the ring."
so frodo took the money, turned around and kicked the wizard in the **** and said "Get lost you stupid wizard!" lol...

another scene was from mr. and mrs smith... and the two main characters of the show was dressed fully in black and sitting in these 2 armchairs while a 3rd unseen person asked em questions.
i remembered the last qn specifically cos it was the same as in the real movie...
the unseen guy asked "how many times did you have sex this week?"
then same as in mr and mrs smith, the man showed 8 with his fingers...
then the woman said "126"
LOL how active...and their replies to the other questions were almost the same as in the real show lol... totally koped entirely

then yet another scene was after the female lead actor finished her makeover...
and they showed this scene where the back of the chair was moving up... and it was darth vadar in the seat lol... then beside darth vadar was the hitch guy with his face totally green and 2 pointed ears... yoda lol
koped from star wars...lol

neway we went to eat ramen after the show...den went home le... so fast sia =|
quite a short outing today... i was expecting to stay until 12 midnight... o well...

Overall it was a great day...cos i found out my pool skills hasnt degraded dat badly... it was the poor table and pool stick at grassroot =)
not my poor skills haha

Labels: movie/documentary

Sun lu notified me today of a sudden change of plans... sentosa outing was changed to kbox/movie at cineleisure...
there's a huge diff to dat lo... i think it wuld hv been more fun at sentosa =|
neway we gonna split into 2 groups: movie & kbox
after we r all done we will be meeting again for dinner =) den mayb we can stroll around or go esplandade watch fireworks...
will be blogging abt a great outing tml!
we shall hv fun staying out till midnight and avoiding police patrols!

this entry is a bit late lol cos yesterday i too lazy to blog =P
yesterday was supposedly the last day of orientation...
talks the whole morning... very boring talks...
den after dat is jc1 and jc2 bonding which i hv absolutely no interest in

as a matter of fact... i took the mrt to sch today and got off 1 stop early =)
met up with the class at 7:20 lol
surprisingly i saw joey there... it was a gathering of pple who wun be getting "excellent" in their conduct grade =D
we were going ice skating at jurong today and i dun think it opens dat early so we were going to sun lu's house for the morning

took a bus to sun lu's house but we stopped at some prata shops for breakfast
i tot there were only plain roti prata and prata with egg...
but there were pratas there with so many diff flavours which i hv nvr seen b4 =|
and they hv weird names... tissue and plaster?

breakfast was heavy... 2 egg pratas,1 tissue prata and 1 cup of ice milo culd barely fit into me...remind me nt to order so much food next time >.<

met up with joan and marcus outside sun lu's house... omg her house is filthy... ur feet/socks will turn BLACK after walking around...i suspect noone does any housework in there

took a taxi to jurong east when we realised it was already 11+... if we took the bus back to amk and then took the mrt to jurong we wuld take forever to reach

neway it was a fun day iceskating... zi tong gary and mabel was skating for the 1st time and the rest of us only knew a bit of iceskating...i think mabel had the most falls today though i heard joan fell a lot to...for some reason joan was alone most of the time... aiyo dat marcus not making gd use of the opportunity we gave him =|

i fell thrice...once was when i crashed into someone cos i culdnt stop =P
i hvent learnt braking yet lol
then once zi tong dragged me down but i broke the fall on my hands
the last fall was bad... sun lu distracted kim whom i was helping and kim slowed down suddenly... and dragged me -.-"
According to newton's first law, an object in motion will remain in motion and an object at rest will remain at rest if there is no net force acting on it.
As i was skating... there was no friction at my feet... thus there was no net force acting on it and it remained in motion.
However, as i was holding kim and she slowed down suddenly... there was a net force acting on my upper body causing my upper body to slow down
Imagine wad happens when ur feet is moving foward and ur upper body doesnt move...
so down i went crashing to the ground and injuring my elbow
nvm... the cut wasnt dat bad neway and its healed by now and it didnt affect my mood neway

so we left at 2:45... i culd barely accelerate by den cos my legs were tired and it was getting crowded... everywhere was people... and i cant brake =)

ate at mac then we went back to AJ cos we very guai... will go sch de =)
lydia and wei yi went the other way on the EW line and the rest of us went on the NS line

suddenly felt very tired... and tried to sleep on the train. standing. culd barely sleep but suddenly we reached yio chu kang le...seemed very short to me

finally... i have my aj uniform =) it looks gd on me from my perspective
no more green shorts and metallic buttons... i m gonna miss those =(

the bballers went for their camp so me marcus and gary went for pool...
i think i need to relearn this game. from the basics... i cant hit nething in... not even a straight shot =| but i won 2 games cos marcus shot the black ball into the wrong hole twice =) li le joined us for pool but only for a short while...

we went dinner at amk after pool... in fact we walked there...it was a long journey to me cos we were ice skating b4 dat... my poor feet =(

had a great day =) we hving another class outing on mon!cheers =D
this time its a trip to sentosa so the whole class MUST come !!!
the more the merrier... no excuses to not come... *and i still think OG outing is nt a gd reason but wad can i do abt it =( nvm den...*

so c u pple again on mon =D details will be released this weekend

As i passed by chris's blog today... i saw his analysis of his no. of frens
so i thought... wad wuld my no. of frens be like from my perspective?
But... before dat... wad is a friend?
A friend is defined in http://www.dictionary.com as

1.A person whom one knows, likes, and trusts.
2.A person whom one knows; an acquaintance.
3.A person with whom one is allied in a struggle or cause; a comrade.
4.One who supports, sympathizes with, or patronizes a group, cause, or movement

So i started classifying:

In Secondary i had:

Best friends:1
Close friends:5
Good friends:10+
Friends:30+
Acquaintances:80+

Sadly, around half of my Sec 3/4 class in the last 2 years belonged to the acquaintance category while few made it into the close friends category.

When i reached JC i had:

Best friends:2
Close friends:10+
Good friends:40+
Friends:100+
Acquaintances: 300+

Briefly, i would just say who belong to which category so u might just see where u belong from my perspective...

Best friends: Michael and Tian Xiang
Yea i know tian xiang might be surprised but i have changed since i entered jc life...i dun get into as many disputes and i take things less seriously... mayb it wasnt even the real me in sec sch life...i feel more carefree now and of cos happier =)
Dats cos i dun bottle everything up nemore... when u say ur thoughts out it feels much better... i will always be happy =D
If u provoked me last time... probably i will hold a grudge for some time...
nowadays, i will probably forget it in a while but this doesnt give anyone a reason to provoke me for pure entertainment...

Few people around me know Michael... i dun think he visits my blog either... but i had always treated him as my best friend =)

Close friends: The Herd,and a few people in my sec 4 class last year

Good friends: 13/06, the people who spent their time eating breakfast with me everyday and around 5 people from my sec 3/4 class

Friends: 90% of Efreet, 5% of Alumino, about 10+ people in my sec 3/4 class and 10+ people from my sec 1/2 class

Acquaintances: Everyone else whom I have met at one point of time or another

If i have missed someone out by accident... pls forgive me cos i cant really remember everyone to classify in these categories

Something everyone need to know: I usually like chatting with my closer friends... so if u find that i do chat a lot with you even if i m just suaning you or crapping around... yea you probably belong to "good friends" or higher.these r the people i will intiate a conversation with...and i will chat for quite a while...
however, if u belong to the "friends" category i will still initiate a short chat with u...but i its likely that i wun be saying too much about myself... i will probably cover more general topics.If you are in the acquaintance category...u will probably not feel that i m friendly enuff while talking...cos usually i wun feel as comfortable as compared to chatting with my great friends.

it has happened... too many people decided to take our subject combination...
13/06 has met the most unfateful misfortune ever that we had been hoping to avoid
the class will probably be split into geo and chem as the 2 main groups... cos we have more than 25 pple taking the S04 subject combinations... thus we might be forced to seperate...

i dun wish to see the results of the application of subject combinations... i dun wanna see our class seperate... this is terrible... a disaster

how can it be possible dat suddenly so many pple decided to take this subject combi...

why??? why????????????????

Since orientation 2 was so terrible today... many of us decided not to go today
gary me and kim met up at 7:15am for breakfast...
i dun feel like going thru wad exactly happened but all i can say dat it was a terrible loss
joan and marcus didnt come at all today... the two of em enjoyed their date together while we waited for some time for them -.-
we den went to kallang where zi tong met up with us and we went to eat at mac... the breakfast was indeed heavy and i m quite sure noone felt hungry after dat...still i wun go into the details...

i saw kallang bus terminal today... omg the terrible state it is... it looks more like a small carpark with buses parked in it and a tiny bus stop which was supposedly the boarding bay...

according to gary's bus guide... we culd take bus 401 to east coast... but we couldnt find the bus number... turns out a road was closed so the bus no longer passed this area...

after a long time of walking around we got on some bus dat supposedly would bring us to near east coast... we reached some place where we started walking towards east coast... then we found out dat between us and east coast was a highway... and its not a gd idea to start strolling across it...took us some time to find the underpass...by dat time sun lu had already been waiting for mcdonalds at east coast for some time cos she took a taxi there...

and so we reached east coast... then we turned right and started walking to mac... after around 1.5km of walking...we decided to approach someone for directions and the reply was : mac is in the totally OPPOSITE direction

OMG sia! and she estimated we would take 15 min of walking to reach there...
i m proud to say that we only took 13 min...seems like she wasnt dat accurate after all...

we went cycling after a rest at mac... and the time was already around 12:30pm! that's hw long we took to reach east coast park when we met at 7:15am lol!
after 2 hrs of cycling...had a great view from Kranji jetty on the way...so sad that we left the camera in the locker b4 we went cycling...

went down to the beach after our long ride... too bad we didnt make it to the end of east coast park lol
got ourselves drenched... had a lot of fun
wished the whole class was here... we shld come play at the beach more often

Result of fun: sun burnt lol =) but i m happy... enjoyed myself today

Omg... suddenly realised i hvent blogged for days!!
So today must write 1 post =)

Today was our class gathering... probably the last for our class...5 pple will be leaving this great class...and more will be coming in

i went lan this morn with gary, tian xiang and li le...marcus and see hao was supposed to turn up but they suddenly changed their minds -.-
so wad do we have? 2v2 dota? no way was i gonna play dat...

so we ended up playing hero seige... it was quite a gd game cos we finished the first part... then i accidentally started the 2nd part when gary wasnt rdy =|
the result was dat we lost =|

den we found another group of pple playing dota... and they had 6 pple... so we happily joined in to play a 5v5 game
It was -ar...i randomed tinker... and i tot... oh no.. i aint gd at tinker!
my lane had me and li le who was using dragon knight...
the mercurial wasnt very smart on the other team... and dwarf was barely average...
i drew 1st blood on mercurial... and got 5 kills den tio ended by enemy phantom assassin...and the game went on...
Soon i had about an 8 kill-streak and they gave up cos we had crashed the middle lane and they were nowhere near taking us down...usually we would kill their whole team together...13 kills...lvl 14... too fast a game =(

Den we went to makan b4 meeting up with the peeps at AMK
Reached wee beng's house after a 15 min bus wait and a 10 min bus ride...seriously the buses nowadays take forever to come...

played mahjong at wee beng's house... den watched em played time crisis...
Heard dat the gun somehow got bugged in Jia Min's hands...
den she's feeling so guilty over it...
Cos Wee Keong keep saying dat jia min spoilt it...
shldn't listen to wee keong... even he told me he was joking...
it was probably a coincidence neway...
so dun keep feeling guilty about it =)

me and jia min went to visit zheng kai... he was really expecting us... doors wide open and waiting lol
ken was there too but he left a few min ltr...
so zk, me and jia min had a chat till zk had to go for dinner

so we went back and found out they hvent ordered food!
omg... it was around 7:30pm den and we had no dinner !!

watched sun lu push carena into the pool... then marcus pushed sun lu in... quite interesting... reminded me to stay away from the water >.<
dinner came at 8+ and we had a great dinner and took quite a few photos...
left at 9:15pm...

I had quite some fun today with the class... so I want to say dat I had a great time with 13/06 for the past few months and i seriously hope we can stay together...
also... there are many things i learnt while i was with the class...like bowling and playing pool...i feel happier since my experience with 13/06 and i hope the class will stay together after orientation 2...cya pple in skool again tml!
