Intern at junior

Facts to prove that Mr Lam's teaching styles has changed


He bullies his ex-students by pulling their ears. And the worst thing is that cherilyn is just looking at me.


And his students start to follow..



This is just pure weird, Mr Lam is covering his chest. Little mermaid? Gender change?



And then he does weird actions.


Ok that's not really the whole truth, but some parts are true. I may reveal the whole truth another time. Till then.. I MISS INTERN!

GOLD

After all those practices. After all those scoldings. After all things that were bad.

It finally paid off. because....

WE GOT GOLD FOR SYF!! GOLD GOLD GOLD GOLD GOLD!
(I don't care if I'm late or whatever..)

To think that Mrs Aw always scared Rui Jun and I saying that we are no where close to Gold.

To think that upon hearing that we got Gold, Rui Jun, Tiffany, Priscilla and myself just screamed for less than 2 seconds and then just started crying and crying. HAHA. That was how relieved we were. We were just squeezing each other's hand and worrying for the results.

I'm so glad that all our hard work actually payed off. I'M SO HAPPY THAT I'M AT A LOST FOR WORDS!

And most importantly. I think God really deserves all honour and praise. We prayed so hard before we left, before we performed. And just before we got our results. I believed that many of us were praying very hard. Yes, indeed, God works wonders.

we're all in this together

Ok, this may sound as if I've a split personality. But just as I was blog hopping, I realised that I'm not so nervous anymore. And I really want to Thank God for that. It's like He really calmed me down.

And I also realised how grateful I am to have such wonderful friends. Rui Jun, Tiffany, Priscilla and everyone else. We wouldn't have gotten this far if anyone was actually missing from the choir. And while reading Tiffany's blog on the crazy plans we had on saturday, I realised how I'm totally missing out on the fun stuff. I should just relax a bit and enjoy the music more. I guess when we enjoy the music, everything just sounds so much nicer.

I guess sec four is really so stressful that sometimes I focus on the wrong stuff just to pretend to have everything under control. What am I going to do man? I'll die with work overload at this rate la. Oh well. But now's not the time to be emo. HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY THOUGHTS!!

I think I should go pack my stuff now. haha. I almost typed myself instead of my stuff. haha. I'm going high. GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE!

the moment of truth

My heart is beating super super fast. I can't help but feel ultra nervous. Just to update you all, Tomorrow's my SYF. And I'm just feeling to scared that I really want to cry.

And yet I'm really excited. I really want to know where we stand. But am I going to cry tears of joy, or cry because I cannot stop regretting. NO NO NO! I MUST THINK POSITIVE THOUGHTS!!

Please pardon me. I'm really going crazy right now. I'm like torturing myself by thinking too much!

Ok! Anyway. I hope that you all will pray for us. That tomorrow we'll give of our best. That we will be able to sense God's presence with us throughout the whole thing. That nothing will go wrong will our pieces. And basically just bless the whole choir to be fit and energetic and ready to face the music. (both figuratively and literally. AHAHA GET IT?!!)

Yeah. I'm in no mood to blog anymore. Till another time..

OOH OOH!! BEFORE I FORGET! I PASSED MY 2.4 KM RUN WITH A 'B' BECAUSE I DECIDED TO WALK THE LAST ROUND. WHICH IS NOT THE POINT. CONSIDERING THE FACT THE LAST TIME I ACTUALLY RAN WAS LAST YEAR. I PASSED!! WOOHOO!!

First intern

Today we had our first internship! I was looking forward to it all week and it was nothing close to what I expected.

Tin Tin, Cherilyn and I went to junior department. (P4-P6) And like Mr Lam and Mr Ang both didn't come today. So like when we went down, I volunteered to play the piano when Aunty Sabrina led and Cher played the guitar next to me. And because there was a lack of teachers, the three of us decided to impromptu-ly plan games. So after singing, Aunty Sabrina asked if they wanted games or lessons. No doubt they chose games.

Bear in mind that every few minutes we had to shout and ask them to keep quiet. Threatening them with forfeits. Dangerous bunch of kids.

So we started off with the really fun and dangerous safe game of Scissors Paper Stone BX. And only a few of them played la. And to think before that they sounded so enthu. They even kept the chairs at record time. But when ask them to play, half of them run out of the room.

So after they started to get out of control, we decided to change games and initially wanted to play the game 'do you love your neighbour'. But they kinda didn't understand us and insisted that they wanted to play whacko. So I went to get the pillow from intermediate and we got them to introduce themselves. Somehow I think they must have this weird idea that sharing their name will kill them and we took forever just to get everyone's name out. Good thing that male teacher was there, if not the three of us would have died. So the game of whacko started off well. And it only lasted well for like 3 minutes? then it went totally out of control. The guys kept on whacking any random people they didn't like. And so we were forced to stop the game again. And this time we decided to keep it simple and play simon says. At this point of time, we couldn't stop laughing at the havoc they created and how they were so.... weird?

So like Tin Tin went mad. He said "Ok let's play Tin Tin says. Ok Tin Tin says QUIET!! Do I hear quiet?" And then Cherilyn and I burst out laughing. So like Tin Tin led this game (actually he did most of the games) and like after a while we had to show them the forfeit they had to do which was the chicken dance. So Tin Tin was trying to learn it from Cher and I and it was so weird. So like when we were showing them the chicken dance, this girl suddenly said "so cute!" and it was like so embarrassing la. Then they danced along. And finally they left.

Next week Tin Tin would be teaching in P4, cher helping in P5 and I in P6. Hopefully they'll be more in control. They were really energy sapping.

Come to think of it, back when we were in Junior Department the only similarity we had was that girls would sit in one side and guys the other. The red sea never seemed to have disappear. Guys hated girls and girls hated guys even more! haha. I remember how they tried so hard to get us to sit together but it never seemed to actually work. But I seriously don't remember being as rowdy and crazy as them. Back then my class had to remember John 1:1-14 and I heard that nowadays they don't do that anymore. Kids nowadays are getting madder and crazier. Next week I shall take something to get me high so that they can't do anything to make us go mad. I shall make them go mad instead. Ok I shall not be so mean. Oh wells. HAHA.

I'm so excited for next week!!!

DJW

YAY! My com is like finally repaired.

So anyway, for the past week, my school has this Discover Jesus Week (DJW). And I really like such stuff. It really gives you a chance to reflect on your life and all. That's what I feel la. And so ok I must admit that the band was fanciful. But TOO fanciful. And they chose songs that no one knew so like after a while it became a rock concert. (*hinting to you LIM ZITENG!) And then this youth pastor, super young guy, came and speak to us. He was telling us about the benefits of the cross and the things he does to get your attention is really good. If I ever do something that requires public speaking, I hope I can be half as fun as him. haha. So DJW was for 3 days la. And on the third day, the pastor ended the whole thing by describing in detail the pain, torture that Jesus went through. Just picturing the whole process in my mind just hit me on how I always took Jesus' death for granted. And praise the Lord, many people rededicated their lifes and some for the first time accepted Christ.

Today is Good Friday and I guess we all should be grateful for what God has done for us. That Jesus has paid the price for our sins. "For God so loved the world that He gave His One and Only beloved Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16.

Can you imagine. All we have to do is to believe in Him and all our sins are forgiven, we are granted freedom and on top of that we are given eternal life. How great is that. I don't know about you people out there, but there's really no greater love than this.

Ok, I'm kinda speechless now, till another time when I come to blog. haha

mg SEA games

Today was AWESOME!!! Like we had 'SEA' Games for the sec fours. Just some information for those who are lost. Basically Mg has this game thing every year for the sec fours. Last year, there was Asian games right, so the games would be named after it. This year it's 'SEA' Games. Yeah. And each class would represent a country. And the host country, which is Thailand this year, would pick 3 games, with floorball as one. So ya. Back to what happened. So my class was Malaysia. And the 3 games chosen were handball, floorball and benchball. (Go and do your own research if you don't know any of these games) I played handball la. Everyone in class was in one sport la. Yeah

So this morning, we had to be in school at 720, like any other school day and we were told like it would end at about 1. That's like a whole school day except that we're playing games after games. Anyway, for handball, we didn't play knock out la. So like had to play against every class. Ok so blah blah blah.

Then it came to the finals for all 3 sports. For my class, they were fighting for 3rd/4th place for floorball and yeah they won. So yupp, 3rd place for floorball. For benchball, they were fighting for 1st and 2nd. It was a really really close match and sadly we lost. But nevertheless, they came in 2nd. Lastly came Handball. We were too fighting for 1st and 2nd and YES WE WON!! ahhaha. We thrashed Thailand!! WOOHOO! Our first match was against them and we lost but luckily for us, things took a big turn and WE WON!!

So as you can see. Everyone in my class won something. That's like super cool la. We all recieved a medal each. Those who helped out in other sports had two la. So ya. It was so cool to see the class so united and they had really good sportsmanship. And we also won overall, which was like 100plus. But ultimately, we had fun la.

4I really really ROCKS!!! (Singing WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS MY FRIEND!!)

Anyway. I was thinking about myself when I was young. How I would always pray to God for a puppy. I can still remember what I would say. I'd go "Dear God, please give me a puppy." See how general that statement is. So anyway. Many many many years later. My prayer did come true. But instead of that cute little,(let me emphasize on the LITTLE) puppy I pictured in my mind. I had a huge one. And now she's kinda of a terror. Like a mini terrorist at home. So my point is this. Be careful with what you pray for. And I've learnt that I should be a bit more specific in what I pray for. HAHA. So random...

For those who actually care or are supportive. My handbells SYF is on the 23 of April and we would really appreciate your prayers that we would perform our best and get at least a gold. And like I've a handbells concert coming up soon. Details are not confirmed. But yeah. It would be nice if you all would actually come. It's going to be really cool and the songs are familiar songs so that you all can actually appreciate it. Yeah.

updates

Many things have happened since thursday. So here are the updates.

Thursday:
So we had cross country on this day. This year we had it in turf city. And this is not the only change they had. The sad thing was that there was no milo van this year. So a few other classmates and I had this sign on us which said "No Milo No Run". And we really didn't run. We skipped, walked, brisk walked, jump.... Anything but run. Except when we were about to reach. We made so many teachers laugh at us. And like nearing the finishing line, we kept on chanting "No Milo No Run". Yeah. We were all MAD! And after that I went out for lunch with Rachel, Kjelti, Marina, Zhi Wai and Ya Ting. Then crashed Ya Ting's house for a while before going to school to meet for CIP. CIP was so fulfilling. We played games with some old folks. And yeah, bringing smiles to children are fun, and the same applies to old folks. They are so funny. But I don't understand why they all keep asking me for tvs. So many other people to ask they keep asking me.

Ok then at night, things didn't really go well for me. I shall not elaborate on it. Never felt so shattered.

Friday:
Went to school with a heavy load on my mind. But as the day went on, my friends kept me so preoccupied that I never thought about anything. During handbells, (Gosh Miss .... is so annoying!!!) had to take measurements for SYF and I still dont' understand why must we have a gown. It's going to be so difficult to walk around in. Then blah blah blah for prac. Shall not say anything cos it would spoil the fun for those who may come for our handbells concert.

So after much last minute contemplation, I finally decided to go for night games. I'm so glad I didn't choose otherwise. NIGHT GAMES WAS SO COOL! Yes Elroi, if you did most of the planning (or whatever) I got to admit it went really well. It started of with ice breakers and that got me high. (Oh plus the fact that I had all my special 'potions' with me.haha) Then murderer. Then cluedo and lastly the candle war. For cluedo I was a character called joanne. So taking away all the other stuff. The game made me look like what gerald said, desperate housewife. But I had fun overall la. I never talked to people like Amos and Ryan before and ya. I got high talking to them. HAHA. I don't mind having another day like this, where we play the night away. OH AND OUR DEFENCE FOR CANDLE WAR WAS THE BEST LA!! HAHAHA. I can't believe I managed to keep awake the whole night and didn't even feel sleepy at all. I though when it was nearing day break I would be sleepy. Never expected to be talking about cramps and then getting higher and higher. And I'm serious, ryan looks like a monkey when he opens his eyes so big. All he needs to do now is to pull his lip over his nose. HAHA!

Today:
I came home. And SLEEP!! then like I just came home from the beach. I had dinner there. haha. I was so tired and cranky that I just slept sitting down waiting for my brothers and cousins to stop playing. Then when I was woken up to go home, I think I scared my youngest cousin, cos I was so annoyed. haha.

I don't care about you all anymore. To think I invested so much feelings into it. I can bet you that you've never experienced such a strong hurt. It feels like I'm being stabbed right at the heart, causing it to break into a million pieces. You caused me to cry so hard that it felt like my heart was bleeding. Unless you can tell me exactly what I'm doing that is wrong, don't you dare judge me like that again. If it's simply because of jealously, then I have nothing to say. Can you confirm that I'm the one who changed? How can you be so sure that it wasn't you who changed? I don't want to see all of you again. I don't think I can ever be bothered with you people again. It's seriously over...

happy birthday xinwei!

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY XINWEI!

I wanted to blog on this yesterday but I was not capable of. Haha. Anyway, it was nice having you back in Singapore even though it was for that short period of time. Really really miss you. And FYI for all of you, Xinwei's birthday is on the 29th of Feb. How cool is that?

Blegh. I'm sick.

Like yesterday in school, it started to get very chilly so I put on my jacket. Thanks to Kjelti I brought my jacket cos she warned me about geog extra lessons. (inside thing). So anyway. I started to sneeze like siao in the morning, but I didn't really care, thinking it was just my sinus. But as the day went on, I started sneezing harder and harder. And my nose started to leak. So after geog lessons, I was lucky that my dad was nearby and he drove me home. So I slept from about 4.30pm all the way to this morning 10am. I woke up twice. Once for dinner (I have no idea why they have to wake me up for that) and the other to use the phone. Haha. And the only reason why I'm blogging about this is because I've nothing better to do now. I kinda want to go for handbells. But I can't.

Maybe later I'll do something more fun. I'm so bored that I actually want to study.

Oohhh. Hope tomorrow I can go for crosslink. Maybe if I study hard today Mummy will let me go. Yeah. haha.

I'M SO BORED!!!
