An Adventurous Friday... A long story

Well then, before I start, let me drift back to yesterday, where it all started... morning(7.45am-8.10am).Briefing for all student leaders/briefing for students interested in Conversational MT....nothing much to say here...Physical Exercise period(8.25am - 9.35am). Intensive training for NAPFA test. 2.4 preparation...2.6km training. Ended up with muscle aches over various parts of body. After school(2.15pm-3.30pm). Rushed to take photos for I/C. The sillest thing I was made to do was...remove glasses so that the result would be better. Back in School(4pm-6.35pm)... Chaotic rush in school to prepare for school annual sports meet, CCAs included. Ended up with a stocked up F.A kit by my CCA, and also, a shattered glass panel from a notice board bysomeone(dont know who).

So, here it all begins. This morning, everything as per norm, just that the journey to the stadium took an hour...Walking,bus,MRT,walking. So, first thing(yesterday's intensive NAPFA training), lost the 4x400m relay.Later in the morning... changed into the CCA attire so that I could go to the spectators' stand to help the class with refreshments without surrendering EZ Link card. next, First aid duty. Best view of the race track.
Later in the afternoon, I,Damien,Andy,Gabriel,Edward,Randall walked back to the school. However, it started raining heavily, so Edward walked home,Damien took the more crowded bus to the MRT station,and the remaining of us took the bus behind Damien's(less crowded) to the same place.Went to collect photos for making of NRIC in afternoon. lunch,short break,back to business. Caught a bus to Clementi MRT station, where I caught a train to Lavender to the ICA building to make the NRIC. Met Damien there at 3.35pm.He was there at 2.30pm, but for some reason, he missed the queue, and had to wait again.Well, i got to the counter first, but because of some gliches, i was last.
Something extra happpened. Damien andI went to Paya Lebar to collect a parcel sent by his foster family from Japan. It was quite a good present. An original sountrack that is worth 70 dollars in Singapore.After that, it was getting late, so when he wanted to go shopping at 4.30, i refused...too tired already...need some rest. So, toorrow, we agreed to meet again...@ the opening of Jurong Lake Park. he would be performing,while I would be patrolling the area again for any casualties....
Today was a long story, but tomorrow would be another big day... stay turned to the next post about tomorrow....

Trapped.

Trapped. that's the name of this self-composed poem again... this won't be a good one, for i have not been writing these for about a month or two... Ok, so here goes:


Another month is flying by soon.
Still I am trapped in this shallow pit.
Should I burrow deeper,
Or should I turn back at once?
Such is the simplest,
Yet toughest problem.

The exams are coming soon.
However, I am still that lazy old self.
Should I continue to be seduced by technology,
Or should I prepare for those days?
This decision seem very minor,
However the consequences are major.

When will a dream become an act in life?
I still have a long way to go.
When will I become decisive?
When will my shell shatter ,
Into a thousand pieces of hope?
Such is the future, that belongs to the new era.

Quite a birthday...

This post marks 15 years of being on earth. However, this 15th birthday gives a bad impression of the year... It was almost as if it were a normal day. The only things which seemed diffferentg was one thing, a good ol' bashing. Well, awkard as it seems, that is really the most obviuos thing that marks my 15 years. Well, posts are just posts, so, only experiences take the form of blog posts. Anyway, there should be a brighter tonight as I preceed into the last few hours of my birthday...

First things last

Today, was quite a comedy. The first was the presentations. It was either the presenters, or their presentations which were a comedy to the rest of the class. Next up, after school, on the way home, I made a fool of myself. I forgot that the boarding points of 2 buses had switched places. Unknowingly at first, I ran after the wrong bus, which I thought initially, was the "right" one. anyway, it was only after the bus negotiated a left turn that I noticed and confirmed that I was on the wrong bus! Immediately I pushed the bell, and I had the thought that some passengers were thinking of me to be a "lazy walker"... when in fact, I had taken the wrong bus. But nonetheless, I had to walk back to the interchange, take the right bus this time. So, now, I was at the previous boarding point of the bus that I had taken earlier... Normally, as long as the bus turns right, I will be on the right track. The buses which I take home will never turn left until atleast after my alighting stop...

A party, one to remember...

Yesterday, 14th March 2006, was the first ever class gathering this year. Well, quite a small area for a gathering, but it was after all worth it. The was indeed all lot of fun and efort put into the whole event. There was a lot of interaction within the class. It was so effective that it even attracted others from another classes to the vicinity. Talk about ti, that's no class event at all, it was more like a gathering for Sec 3E students from Yuan Ching...
Anyway, it was a great time, we even got time to get close to the others... Well, at least we knew when we could bully the teachers(haha, if only we could be more formal at gatherings). Anynay, all good things had to come to an end anyway, so, the memorable events came only at 8.30 pm, how many? It canot be counted just like that, so, it's impossible to describe them here.
So, another great event ends right here, another entry into the life diary it goes...

A Speedy travel...

Today, the second last day of term 1. So many interesting things have happened this term. Into the first week of the next term, there are much more events and activities to unravel. The sports heats starts tomorrow. Seems like I have a good reason for not being in my seat, waiting for my turn. Three events, all depending on stamina and speed. Tomorrow, three track events. Nothing had better go wrong, or there goes the team... Another Chinese test today, this one will definitely pull up my marks for the CA1. Tomorrow, another test, Math. It would be easy, if only I practised it right away... Don't want to get a bad result for this one either.All right then, it's on to more practise i go...

Oral examination, "O" Level style

Today, Chinese oral. It's one step to the "F" grade for me. But no, this time, it was quite refreshing. The invigilators, seemed to be so close to me, as if I had known them for a year or so, so as it was. The new relief teacher, though he came in just his year, I had known him for the past two years, so, tlking to him was very much like talking to an old friend. The passages reading, the invigilator was my cousin's form teacher, so, after she confirmed with me about that, the first impression I got was that, she might be slightly lenient towards my poor reading skills... The first paragraph was a blunder, however, I found the next two to be very smooth going. Today, the hall was divided into three stages, as I viewed it to be. The first stage of the oral examination was the reading preparation stage. That was where the examination begun for all of us. Three minutes, no more nor less to complete the passage. Then it was on to the second waiting area, to wait for our turn to read the passage to the invigilator... There were three, so, of the three, I went to the left most lane... I had wanted to switch with Steven, but it was futile.
Stage one over, next stop, waiting area three. Here I waited to start a conversation with the invigilator with another invigilator... The only teacher I was afraid of, was the one in the middle... The HOD? No, she seemed to be very friendly of the three. So, overall, it was quite a success for the first time... It would turn out to be a good grade this time... Seems like my level of confidence is rising... lol.... So long then, I have a debate to prepare for tomorrow...
