Cataclysm

Posted May 9, 2009
It starts with accidents.

Accidents happen.

When a virus spreads quickly and is speculated to become the next global pandemic equivalent to the Spanish Flu or "La Grippe", that's an accident not contained.

When an idiot suddenly swerves in front of your car and you have no time to hit the brakes, that'…

The Entertainer

Posted April 11, 2009
If I were to blog about this week, it would be about how I managed to juggle my time as The Entertainer for MAC, the "highlight" of the year, as well as managing to conquer Mount Homework (after many failed attempts to do so). That would make my post seem lifeless because, as you can guess, what oth…

Debate Workshop

Debate Workshop
Then, there was today. Quite an "amusing" day on my behalf. April Fools are abundant wherever you go and today seems to prove just that.

I arrived in school to find myself being surrounded by all the other English freaks of the school. I stuck by Melissa's side as she was a mosquito ma…

April Fools

Posted April 3, 2009
As the title suggests, there have been many April fools (for all I know, they could be whole-year fools) I've met for this week. When I mean fools, I really really mean it.

For the first half of the week, I've prolonged my life for a few years by laughing so hard my voice couldn't come out. All thank…

I Complain

Posted March 27, 2009
After weeks of endless attempts to cram useless information into our heads, memorising numerous arbitrary moral values and their arbitrary definitions and finally, coming face to face with those horrendous, blasphemous results, it's once again back to the time of the year to start guessing the smart…

I'm Not Associated.....

Posted January 17, 2009
Joy, oh joy!! I made it into the Nostalgia editorial board again!! Cassandra and Sha Lynn didn't, though. Actually, Cas would have gotten in. As I figured out later, Samantha said during the meeting that being old members, we didn't need to reapply. (Excuse me? I wrote the darn essay for nothing?!!)…

For Nostalgia's Sake

Posted January 10, 2009
The first week of school has officially ended (only applicable to me). It was actually quite fun, not to mention confusing.

On Monday, I arrived at 7.10 and started looking for long lost people. The canteen was packed like mad and if I could describe it, it would be the tin can and we pupils would be…

Failure

Posted November 18, 2008
Abraham Lincoln experienced failure after failure - for twenty-eight years! In 1833 his business failed. In 1836 he had a nervous breakdown. He failed to be elected as speaker in 1838. He lost re-nomination to Congress in 1848, and was rejected for Land Officer in 1849. But he 'hung in there'. In 18…

School Report 2008

Posted November 14, 2008
This has been, I might say, one of the most progressive years in my life. Although there were some major disappointments, there were also some things that I never would have done if I didn't come to DJ, not to mention some things that would never have happened if I were not placed in 2 Batai.

The Missing Month

Posted November 6, 2008

Left a gigantic hole in my heart.

It was this very month that the year's final exams were held, when I learnt more than my head could cope with, and saw the bigger picture in life.

Early in October (1st October), there was this 7-year boy who went on a killing spree in a zoo somewhere in Australia (wa…

School, Anyone?

Posted September 26, 2008
Right....So yesterday, I passed up my horrible-looking creature. And about Tuesday, I figured I got into Harmonix. That's just great, really. Unfortunately, the horrible-looking creature was brutally killed in an unexpected manslaughter by that freaking racist who so happens to be a teacher in my sc…

Why Do We Learn History?

Posted September 13, 2008
Well, as the MOE pointed out, it's to know more about your beloved country and its [condemned] history. The big question is "Is it getting us, the younger generation, anywhere?". The answer to most of us is a gigantic NO.

Honestly, we are not even studying about how our country has progressed in the …

Strange But True

Posted August 21, 2008
This being my 100th post (for the year) would be slightly special.

This might sound outrageous, but my science tuition teacher actually suggested that Lee Chong Wei was bribed. Whoops. Maybe China gave him 3mil to settle with if he loses? OK, forget this suggestion, to all LCW fans.

This point onwards…

Democracy

Posted July 30, 2008
It was just today that I realised my picture was actually in the Jogathon Card. I never thought that the girl in Yellow shirt was me. All along, I just thought that the girl was "so pro" because she wore a yellow cap along with her yellow shirt. Of course, I knew I had that cap but I didn't remember…

Freedom: Crap Week

Posted July 25, 2008
To say that many things have happened this week is an understatement. The whole crap started on Monday.

Monday
We had a formal assembly today. Funnily, the teachers didn't know about it. So, roughly 10 minutes waiting for them to turn up, Pn Wong ordered the class monitors to call the teachers to the …

Yay....access to the computer.....OK, OK...merely because I have to "captionize" the Jogathon pictures. But where the heck do I start?? There're soooo many pictures!!!! But then again, we also need suitable pictures. Browsing through them now, I seem lost as I did not attend Jogathon.....And I'm cap…

Perfection?

We had a Nostalgia individual photoshoot today......Wan Jyn and Samantha posed alot but Cassandra and I were stiff....I just can't stand not smiling in the pic...they wanted an emo picture, unfortunately, I don't think I could live up to that expectation. I posed for barely 5 seconds and started smi…

Nostalgic Gangsters

Posted June 28, 2008
Today, I woke up early to go for the Nostalgia photoshoot. I guess I was the earliest among all Nostalgics. When I reached there, I decided to stay in the car for a while.....until a Nostalgic prefect came out of his car. THEN I came out...to find that no one else was there yet....And that was 5 min…

Before Or After?

Posted June 20, 2008
Few things have changed since......eh....err.....OK, forget it. Let's put it this way: A LOT of things have changed. The class positioning has changed. Wan Jyn just HAD to grab the first place. Yi Huey was expected to grab 1st or second but unfortunately, her Chinese pulled her down. First 5 had rat…
