It's a pity that I couldn't find the NJC people after the Chinese New Year celebrations in school yesterday. They took the the trouble to go all the way to Tanglin Road and I missed them!! D:
I think it was because I was also rushing to open the classroom doors before the rest of the class need to wait outside. Oh well.
Like the past two years, I gave out angpows to the rest of my class. And likewise, Yimin finished all the sweets and junk in her angpow in less than an hour. Some just can't wait.
We were late for Physics SPA as Ms Chua ended her lesson late. I could barely keep awake during E Math though. Thank goodness Ms Chua didn't say anything - or maybe she didn't notice. I really hope that is the case. I've been trying very hard this year to keep awake for all my classes. However, I dozed off during Geography this year. I am really sorry to Ms (Magdalene) Sim. I really need more sleep. I'm sleeping three to six hours now.
Anyway, as I was nodding off during E Math, all my inking on my second word document worksheet that Ms Chua prepared for us is in a mess. That's bad. It's good that it isn't some unknown topic.
Ms Chee was angry that we were late for SPA but gave us a Gotcha ticket in the end. It's a CNY gift to us. I got a better micrometer yesterday too. One with no zero error, making my life so much easier. I was the first to finish the experiments at my table too.
Chemistry was really rushed as we had to assemble in the auditorium in the middle of our lesson. Ms (Jerene) Sim went through the slides with great speed and I was inking the slides furiously.
This year's CNY celebration was alright. I realised that our school is pretty biased. Once the little boys came onstage with their young partners and danced their item, many of the girls cheered of them. In fact, when the boys went up first, they got one of the loudest cheers. Their performance was really good though. Although I find that the poor little girl in the middle who does not have a dancing partner looks pretty lonely amidst the rest of the dancers.
Zhuo Min and Rosi were amused by my amateur attempt at lip-syncing. I think I still have a long way to go with that. Overall, the concert was fine, with the usual dance items and stuff. My leg muscles went stiff like they do every year during school concerts.
This year's secondary ones need to improve on their school spirit. Everyone agrees with that. When we had our customary school cheer after the concert, everyone took part in it except the Secondary Ones. In fact, this is the first time the Secondary Ones didn't take part. When it was my batch, we had no qualms about cheering and this year's Secondary Twos didn't have any problems too. That is bad. Maybe they just need a lot more time.

This will be my first post of year 2009!
A few people have been waiting for this post... well, actually only one person who is my most loyal reader and 'tagger', Ching Han!!
There was choir practice everyday last week. It was tiring but it felt fun to go for choir practices after zombifying myself with lessons. Mrs Lim's exercises are really tiring - I actually do them in hope of attaining a better body figure.
Secondary One orientation campfire was better than I expected. Although there was a mistake in the start, it turned out well.
My class G1 is also really great. Our first Social Studies lesson last week was kind of a Q & A session. The teacher asked if any of us have gone to India for a vacation before and only Dominique answered.
"Anyone been to India before? Any part of India."
"Yes! Me!" (Dominique)
"Which part of India?"
"Dubai"
"Oh, Dubai is not part of India..."
Haha, I didn't know that too. But the expressions on both parties' faces were really priceless.
I also attained a higher level in my so-called sleepy-state-craziness. I actually went out of my house this morning without my badges. At least I was not late.
CCA Open House 2009 involved many balloons. Teryne has this strange force that attracts all the balloons on the table to her. Haha. Most of us went to the mini forum to sing a few songs and played the BALLOON GAME. Which gave me a neck ache the following day but it was great fun nevertheless.
Saturday's farewell BBQ party was a success. Save for the fact that I was really tired at some point and introduced myself to the satay sauce - much to the amusement of Claudia and whoever that was present. Yi Bin, like her usual carefree self, managed to take a few candid shots of me that were really bad. I didn't even notice her camera. I must also thank the Alto Two Secondary Twos, Winnie, Grace and Pei Pei for pushing me on in East Coast. I think I would have just given up and waste money on taking a taxi if not for them. I saw them at Bedok Interchange and decided to follow them since I have no idea where I'm supposed to alight at. Turned out that we overshot and walked past thirty BBQ pits and four large sectors of East Coast Park. We were shouting out the number of the BBQ pits as we walked past them. =D
Saturday also proved that the Sopranos are better at sliding ice cubes into other people's shirts. It was really fun and we dirtied the ice with our dirty hands. Juniper also revealed her special fascination to BBQ. She tried to barbecue a wedge of orange and a piece of sugared gummy.
Oh, and the sea looks like agar agar to me at night. And I got to ride in Ms Ong's mini cooper to Bedok MRT station as I was stranded at the beach. =D I had a minor headache after the ride though.
