I wanted to blog yesterday, but the blogger was down! What a shame! Never mind, I shall start today's recording by thanking all the Ringers. They were awesome! and i must thank all the guest performancers too! They were fantastic too! So Here it goes....
We Sec 2s arrived at 9 in the morning instead of 12 because we wanted to make something for the graduating batch. Though the results were quite horrifying, these were our gifts to them and we shall always remeber them as wonderful seniors! Well, we made a mess and had to spend some time cleaning up before going to the bells rm to "report". Then, we set off for Far East for lunch! We had chicken rice (spend some time looking for this stall!!!) along with some of my cute little juniors! Haha... chicken rice was delicious! Then we set off again, with my conductor's teddy (a gift we got her....wah...ran up and down far east buliding for it!!) and her chicken rice.... another gift which was far more practical. We ran after bus 105 and ended up as stinking people because of the sweat. Luckily, the bells rm is air conditioned though my senior said we stink! '_'
Then we waited and waited for the bus to come. Finally, i came!! And we girls carried out the "MM" -- Moving Mission. Haiz... a horrible job, shld have gotten some coolies to do it lor! Too bad, we HAD a budget to keep to!! So we dragged, pulled, carried, sweated, groaned, laughed, dragged, pulled, carried, sweated, groaned, laughed and finally got all the stuff onto the foyer!! Yay!! And we waited for the bus people to help us load the stuff into a van, before we loaded ourselves into the bus. Man, the bus was SMALL!! We had 30+ of us and not including the cushions we had to pull along with us! School, can you be more gernerous in terms of budget?? Thanks!!! So we got onto the bus, with all the barang barang (ie. gowns, court shoes, bags, cushions) squeezed around us and finally, we reached our destination. But I get car-sick easily so you shoudl know what happened. No. I didn't puke, I got a headache. My, I was so sowrried I wouldn't be able to concentrate during the concert beacuse of this headche, givng me another reason to be headache of. Luckily, it "subsided" before the concert.
Once again, we loaded the stuff and us off the bus and went into the Esplanade. There's so many escalators and twists and turns! Finally, we got ourselves in front of a big big big humungous gigantic lift. And about 60% of us got into it and went up. The rest of us waited and waited for the lift to come down again. But, i didn't. So we had to asked for help from the guard. So we got help and was STILL stuck. The lift can't come down. Haiz....so another 10+ of us squeezed (our bells were still downstairs) into a mini lift and went up, where we found out the the big big big humungous gigantic lift was on the "door lock" mode. So me and my junior unlocked it and went down where we met our conductor again, this time coming up with the bells. She was saying "How smart...How smart..." Haha...silly right??
Then we got into the dressing room and changed into our gowns because it was suppose to be a "full-dress rehearsal". Everything was on, but not the make-up yet. First was the technical run, then it was the real full run. Aiyo....im so nervous and it's not even the real thing!
~Time passes~And it was time for dinner. Aiyo, we got nasi lemak and there's chilli (the thing i don't really love.) So we ate along with our scores (reading lar) and finally, we had to put on make-up. Wahaha.....the process was so funny. I haven't put on make-up since I was 6 (K2, I had to perform a funny dance on stage.) So hands and legs were everywhere. Blushes fly, foundations were applied and....wahaha....it was so funny!!! But then, after all the laughing, it was 15mins away from concert already! NOW, was the tike to panick.
My conductor did a visualization exercise with us to help us to breathe and she gave each of us a rose! (The first one I received from sb in my life!!) yay!! She's so sweet!! Then....it was performance....
I cannot talk much about performance because it was too much to write about. But I just have to say my seniors are awesome. And although i made quite a number of mistakes, I'm still very happy about this concert and it would be indelibly etched in my mind!! Once again Raffles Ringers Rawks! (I'll really understand if people think I am over obssessed '_' ")
O yar, forgot to mention the inflexible E people. We can't go on stage or stay on stage after performance or during interval because they'll CHARGE us!! Say what it against the rules ...blah...blah...anyway, 1 word for them "INFLEXIBLE"!!!
So, after performance, we had to hurry up and change out og our gowns and stuff everything into our bags and finally, RAN out of the dressing room, to the stage door where we met out friends and family!! Thanks family and friends!! Heehee, i got stuff from them!! Actaully gifts!! Yay!! haha...so after much hugging and talking....we had to leave again, back to the bells, where we had to take them back to RGS.
Once again, the bells got onto the van and we got onto the bus. Wah....everyone was so tired. But haha.....we still had 2 cakes to cut when we were back at RGS. The cakes are from the Sec 2s (us!! Remind me to pay huiyi the cake $$!!) Thank you huiyi's mum for helping us to buy the cakes! And we took many pictures and obviously we ate the cakes!! haha....then it was getting too late, so we were shooed out of the bells rm to go home.
Heehee....but then who can go home when we were in such a "high spirit"?? So YJ's famil and mine went to newton to eat. We eat until we wanna sleep, then we went home!! So after getting home, i practicall wiped the makeup off, brushed my teeth and then plopped on the bed to sleep. What a wonderful night it was. How i wish next yr's concert can come quickly!!
Once again, thanks to everybody and bye my sec4 seniors we would miss you! you must also come back and visit us even after ur graduations okay?? So Hip Hip Hurray for Ringers and Corrine...thank you very much for this wonderful memories you all gave me! I would treasure them along with the pictures taken!! O yar, anybody who wants the photos, don't hestitate to get them from me if you want!!

Arent we lucky?
Tuesday, August 16, 2005
I am alone in the classroom right now. My sis has just gone for an interview. All 3 of us got an interview. Wouldn it be really absolutely awesome if all of us can get through? Well, im relaxing right now. We had a pile of homework to do, but i didn't expect to finish so quickly, so here i am, blogging!
haha... anyway, we just received BAD news that our next history SA is on next tues!! Gosh!! My structured essay is really UNDER expectations and now we have the source based ones. God!! You must be joking with me! We are having our literature poetry assessment on this wednesday and maths on friday. Moreover, I have a RINGERS CONCERT!!! wah...... and i would have to stay back every day this week, the earliest time i can go back (step into a vehicle) is 6pm! PLease, tell me, do you think there is time for studying? I don't think so! So please, if i am going to SURVIVE this week (week 8) and week 9's history and week 10's geography, i promise i would TREASURE life from that very day onwards!
Life...student's life...like a pressure cooker? I don't think so! More like gas within a coca cola can ar! Going to explode/burst/implode/pi-cha at any moment!! Haiz... ... life in Singapore is just so, I guess you would have to go with fate. Wah...btw, my classroom looks really peaceful right now, it's not every day one can get to see a scene like this, especially of class 206! I pity my ex-com studs tr, my friend said she suspects him of depression, which is of a high probability. When i see the pityful trs of class 206, i made up my mind never to be a teacher, for this life is really a depressing one, don't you guys think so?
Its the 7th month now, and a tr just said a very horrifying story. Anyway, Pple of 5k of MBS(yr 2002), do you still remember the 7th month of our yr(2002)? Well, i do...in fact, very clearly! During the 7th month, Mrs Sum (form tr.) tried to get us to volunteer our time at a hospital, to help out (ie. part time coolie). Which is actually a good idea, but as you know we students of S'pore have something like time constraint and would try means and ways to relax right? Therefore, no one volunteered. My tr is so upset, she made explain why he/she couldn't volunteer the time. Shara and I escaped with a "We have tuition." Haha....here's the funny part. A friend of mine couldn get an excuse and was forced to go home and ask for permission. Wahaha... and the next day, he told the tr that he couldn't go beacuse an adult told him not to, for its the 7th month and that going to the hospital is not very auspicious. Haha.. ...My tr was so angry, she said we are not going to have any PE lessons coz our PE time slot is scheduled at the evening and that's when all the "dirty things" start to come out. It was no threat to the girls who are in fact not doing any exercises, but to the boys....haha....they had a "good" time ar, no more football! haha...
haiz...my twin isnt back yet...so i shall continue with what i had stopped for computer studies...stopping here....and reminder: I have 4 more days to concert! concert's good, but im going to miss the sat show at 7!!! anyway.. ...
Raffles Ringers Really Rocks!

Tv....uhm...more than what its made of
Thursday, August 11, 2005
wahaha......im sticking to my TV like a leech.....been like that since young, guess there's no cure for this iillness right now. Its superstar right now, my mums happy that weilian got a high score of 39.5, and saddly, JY didn't get to break that! So my heart goes crack. Don't ask me about D, he's none of my business, or rather, he's my sister's business....see...look up....see that tip?? that's my house's telephone bill. I guess you can say now that females are great spendtrifts (is that the corrct spelling? my spelling skill is bad). haha... ... maths and literature test are coming...well, actually, they're HERE, not coming. And unfortuaately, it falls in the same week as my handbells concert! Am i going to pull through? What I need now is a luck sucking machine, that's what i need!Luck....we have not met before. Just finish annotating AIC book, and really, literature is not my forte. It is my Archille's Heel (sp??) . English too. Failure of my life : English Language. O yar, finally, Fruits Basket 17th book is out. Im thinking of how to get to the nearest popular to get it! Ha....superstar is ending... so i shall stop too, going on a blog-trip, going to start flooding peoples' blog and see what they wrote! You think i am too free? Well, actaully im not. Its my free cum relax time now!

Happy B'day S'pore!! & My zoo trip
Wednesday, August 10, 2005
Haha.. ... today is singapore's birthday so Happy Birthday SINGAPORE! WE LOVE YOU!!!and i spent it in our singapore mandai zoo!! haha...isnt it weird? well, its quite hot today...but its fun since it had been quite some time since the last time i went there. as usual we walked and walked. But we took many pictures! and i saw this boy and his family...theyre feeding the racoons!! I can't believe it! how can they do that! what if they choke that poor animmal? what if they caused a stomache!! i seldom use this word, but i shall use it now....tooooooot boy!! and his mum was like "Feed that one...feed that one!", excuse me mdm, but don't you know there is a rule that says : Please do not feed the animals. Dont you know that?? Maybe she really don't. O yar, and I touched a snake! Yay!! Haha...i didn't actually get to hold it lar. I was when i saw a small group of people around a zookeeper and i was curious, so I went up. And i saw this small snake! Wah....so cute!! So i stretched out my hand and touched it, twice. Haha....ince we have all seen and touched a leather bag, you should know how it felt right? Yes, it felt like leather, but please, it is NOT cold. Quite obvious though, we are havign such a high temperature in singapore. And another issue. Im having an infatuation over....haha....the sealion! It's so cool and fantastic. Am i exaggerating? Maybe, but think about it, don't you think it would be really nice to spend the whole day training an animal and experience good relationships with it? Haha....and when we were going about the zoo, I got hooked up with a new series of comics! Haha....the whole series was in my friend's bag...she carried it all over the place, superb isnt she? Well, i finished it already! Jus before the NDP show started....its really nice i must admit!! And i forgot to mention my friends and I went to watch Charlie and the Chocolate Factory yesterday. The effects were nice, but the plot.......it was quite okay, and i must say the movie i wanted to watch is "Bewitched", not Charlie. Haiz...now that i have spent the money on Charlie, maybe i wouldn't get to see my witch afterall. And i learned jap form yj's exchage student! yay! and i taughther chinese, see? this is what we really called EXCHANGE. And i must also mention about yesterday's misfortune. Finally, our class get to sit in the hall's gallery. First time, because everytime, if we were to be assembled in the amphitheatre, we would be stuffed somewhere above the stage, where we can only see black spots of peoples' head. So finally, we got to sit in the gallery. Good news isnt it. But unfortuntely, we are to sit with anoth 6-7 classes up in that tinny winny space! So first, its squeezzing time. Then , the aircon broke down, can you imagine how unlucky that is? Haha....anyway, that's about what I did for these two days. Been sleepin very late these 2 days though. Please dont ask, I have no idea, guess i just have a talent in dragging things! So, it wouldnt be of any difference tonight too. An di still have to practice for handbells, concert is coming, butterflies are flying......im dying....okay okay...not dying.....okay.... thouhg im sleeping late again, i wouldnt be continuing, getting more naggy by the day...bye then! (to nobody??) *the animals are really cute! I love the white tiger! Its beautiful!*
