CLASS OUTING

2010-05-06T12:28:00.000+08:00

Hello we need a class outing soon or rather i need a class outing because i haven't seen anyone in ages.

I was thinking we could go to universal studios OR if there are budget constraints a meal would suffice just as well. But more importantly could people post when they are free/coming back to Singapore. I know the UK people just came back but will there be a longer break?

And since August is coming soon, should we start deciding on class chalet? Knowing us, by the time we decide it will be August.

Miss you guys lots
Jo Lynn

WASSUP HOMIE.

I update la.

I still read the class blog, hoping someone would update it with something interesting.

Doesn't matter if content is about NS or NUS or NTU or like old days.

Just something would do.

Sad post.

Love,

P.S. I hope I haven't offended anyone with my constant spam. Should I stop?

Hello (: As I was happily staying true to my email address, my sister exclaimed, "Your friend's in my textbook!"

Noted in Thinking Schools, Learning Nations: Contemporary Issues and Challenges for posterity. On a relevant side note, congratulations to Mel for escaping from the dreadful world of accountancy and for choosing to study law and the arts! Sadly, she'll be leaving us to go frolicking in the meadows with a gazillion sheep and a possible pet cow. You are hereby invited to send her off in the evening on the third day of Chinese New Year. Mel, we'll miss you loads! (:

Chalet

2010-01-14T08:56:00.000+08:00

Was looking through the chalet pictures and I thought this was the best ever.
From far, it looks like something from the sewage. But it was semi-edible.
Hmmm. A-M-A-Z-I-NG

gotta get get

2010-01-03T15:16:00.003+08:00

Alright 04 loves!

This will be the rough plan of what's going to happen during the chalet (:

8th Jan:

2pm: Check In. Our chalet unit number is B5!

-Buy chips and food for bbq and steamboat
-Possibly clubbing on friday evening

7pm: Steamboat! (who else has induction cooker?)
9th Jan:

Morning: colin suggests cycling to changi airport to send mer off :D crazy but interesting idea!

BBQ at 5plus! We will be inviting the teachers to come down at about 7!

The rest of the time can be filled in with mahjong, card games, dvds, canoeing, cycling, guitar hero (except that jo and mer, the only 2 in our class with the game, can't make it so if anyone knows anyone who has guitar hero and is willing to lend us +has the ability to transport it to chalet, pls tell me ;D )

10th Jan:

Before 11am: Check Out

Feel free to invite any other ip mates anytime you like (:

Directions to get to HomeTeamNS Pasir Ris:

Take 403 loop service from Pasir Ris Interchange, about 10 stops from the interchange! (it's the end of the loop so don't miss it or you're screwed!)

Cost:
Chalet: 214 + 47 = $261 (assuming no one backs out from now, about $14.50 per person)
BBQ + Steamboat food + Misc snacks: about $10 to $15 (:

Hello (: Merry Christmas to everyone once again! Thank you, Tis, for organizing and hosting the class Christmas party this year. Was great seeing almost everyone again (: I had blogged the loveliest of posts (ha) about the Christmas party which included a particular not-unglam picture of Tis but, sadly, it was devoured by blogger and I'm too depressed (read:lazy) to do that post all over again. So, here you go! (:

The picture that we took with Lou's polaroid camera! Here's an alternative scan. Alright, school's starting again soon so we'll have to make the most of the remaining one and the half week! Amidst all the partying, drawing up of resolutions, reflecting on these twelve months, cleaning and disposing, cooking of feasts and whatnot that you guys are doing now, here's to you.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hope that the upcoming year will be a great and satisfying one for all! Please remember to take care of yourselves and your family along the way. I should stop now before I start bringing in the recession, flus, environmental issues and deaths, heh. See you guys at the chalet soon! Can't wait! (:

EMAIL FROM MR TEO!

2009-12-25T09:04:00.000+08:00

Hello 05IP04 Thu, December 24, 2009 8:28:59 PM
From: Tze Wei Teo <*********@moe.edu.sg>
To: ******@hotmail.com; ******@hotmail.com; ******@hotmail.com; ********@yahoo.com

Colin, Weiliang, Tisiana and Mel,

Hello there... been wanting to write to the whole class... so can you help me forward this email to everyone? You wanna put this in None other than purple also can.

Just want to know how's everyone doing. It's has been 1 year since all of you left me. haha.... sounds gross... but I would like to thank all of you for calling upon me whenever you come back to NJC. Sorry I am always that busy in school, but I am lah.
SOmething very interesting though... very few IP04 pple come back this year, but a lot of 02, 03 and 05 keep coming i think...

I still recall the people who said hi to me whenever they go back : all members of BCME, Mel , Jo , Ying Ting and Kien (for a reason haha. But have you got what you needed?)... esp Gladys who came back to talk to me on Teachers' Day and dropped me an SMS before she goes Briston. Jo as well: very happy that she has grown up...till now i still remember that dance step you and your friends made... hahahaha

I think I also saw Yi Hoong (or is that Yilin?) and Clare outside the library this year? Jolynn smsed me twice when was YEC a few weeks back? Zhirong called me recently and I dunno what he is talking about ... !@#$%^&?:"}{^%$#(**()_+` as always.... all my training in his Fluency and Clarity went down the drain.

haven't heard much from the rest ,esp Weiliang , Colin, Joel, Tuonan, Shaodan, Sam, Jade, Celle, Colin and Lou...and what is Johnson doing? studying or freelancing? Is Clare's leg better? Is Tuonan married? Has Colin grown up? has parting in his hair oredi?

Celle : you still owe me sayo lodeh (curry veg)... I was really really hoping to see a miracle on Teachers' Day this year but dun have :((((

To Kien : Mrs Cheng still remembers you :).

Oh yeah. As most of you know by now that I asked for your permission to let my 07IP PW class to read your GPF, WR and even your slides. They were all very amazed by the quality of your work you had put in and they got the inspiration to do the kind of quality of OP slides that I demand. After handling two batches of PW, I think your class is easier to handle because all of you were very motivated and perservarant to do well. I still remembered Clare cried when she was very desparate to select the correct Groundbreaker. Kien, Jade and PZR practiced and practiced with me in their OP exam at the pond. Meichai and the groups' "Ah...." (seductive) and the skid made where Weiliang gotten some STD... and the whole group was very stressed in submitting their WR after comments by Ms Champagne... Gladys was really very stressed and Mer was very desperate!! the big yellow t-shirt made by the Speech Balloon Group and how they contacted the esplanade, Tuonan's 'act cool' look for commercial break andhe 'fake fake' game played around Singapore... and Coco Chanel's group : acts of class and how I was impressed with Yihoong's 1st draft of her EoM. those were the memories then.

Yeap. Just wanna say hello to all of you on 24th Dec... probably all of you are having some party countdown now but I still like quite Christmas eves. Hope to see more of you come back to NJC and hello me. Anyway I lost my handphone a few months ago so if you sms, do let me know who you are ok. Till then, have a good Xmas and happy 2010! :)

CHALET FTW

2009-12-01T00:38:00.002+08:00

YAY!

i'm glad to inform you that weiliang has successfully booked the CLASS CHALET from the 8th to 10th Jan at Pasir Ris! (:

(he wasn't able to book 1st to 3rd because the website was hanging when he got in)

CAN'T WAIT! (:

ps: please reply me on the xmas party thru sms if you haven't done so!

voting

2009-11-24T00:33:00.004+08:00

HERE ARE THE VOTES (:

1:
colin (may not be able to make it), yingting (cant make it on 1 to 3 jan), jo lynn (cant make it on 1 to 3 jan), meltee, glad

2:
clar, sam (cant make it on 1 to 3 jan), yi hoong (may not be able to stayover)

3:
joel, jo (cant make it on 8 to 10 jan), lou, johnson, jade, nat, mer, weiliang, zhirong, tis

soo 3 it is!

zhirong has warned us that the facilities at pasir ris aren't fantastic, but the chalet is pretty decent (:

correction on how the booking works: weiliang will be able to book on the 1st of december for the chalet on any date of January, so by 1st december, he will be able to get back to us whether or not we get any of the dates for chalet.

xoxo!

oh yes, we're planning to have a christmas party at joel's place (he has kindly accepted the self-invitation to throw the party at his place :D ) will msg all of you soon! please make my life easy and reply, thank you (:

you should be dancing, yeah!

2009-11-11T01:14:00.004+08:00

Hello 04 (:

please vote by 22nd november on the tagboard okay? either that or you can sms me. I will be collating the responses and putting them here after that (:

by the way, weiliang and i have decided that for those who are coming for the chalet, we will be splitting the cost evenly, regardless of how many nights you are staying, so as to avoid discrepancies, especially since most people would only come for the first night (as observed from the chalets in ip1 and ip2)

if anyone has some extremely violent-and-could-murder-someone-because-this-rule-is-too-ridiculous-for-you-to-handle objections, please voice it out! but do note that we feel this is the only way to be fair to everyone ultimately (:

for the guys who need to take leave, really sorry but currently, we are unable to confirm whether or not we can get 1st to 3rd jan, and if that fails, weiliang will be trying 8th to 10th jan (let's just hope that doesn't fail as well) and the earliest you will know about getting the chalet for the period of 1st to 3rd jan will be on 1st dec.

yes johnson, the worst case scenario is that we do not get the chalet, and we'll have to pay for the 47 bucks, but let's cross our fingers and hope that we get it! It shouldn't be a problem though, because weiliang says that nobody is allowed to book till 1 month before the date of check-in, so if we book it at 12.00.01 am on the 1st jan, we should be able to get it right?

WOOP!

Crazy Chalet Changes

2009-11-09T16:28:00.008+08:00

Hi 04 (:

as you all know, i've booked Aloha Changi's Chalet, Fairy Pt Bungalow 3. However, weiliang has just discovered that he can have supremely great rates with HomeTeam NS. This will be an obviously better choice because:

1. rates are wayyy cheaper
2. more facilities (aloha changi has none)
3. may be able to get 1st to 3rd jan which many of you prefer because uni starts on 11th jan.

However, there is a cancellation fee for Aloha Changi, and it's 10% of 470.80 which will be 47 bucks. (considering they wanted to charge me 25% for cancellation fee that's much better already right? hahaha sorry trying to look at the bright side here)

okay before any of you kill me, let me explain why i got everyone into such a shitty mess. a few days ago, i checked every other chalet (nsrcc, aloha loyang, ntuc.etc) and they were all fully booked on both 1st to 3rd Jan as well as 8th to 10th Jan. Weiliang was helping to check the vacancies using his membership under police welfare for Costa Sands but somehow the system was screwed up and told him the earliest he could book was very late Jan. Also, he thought he could only book Costa Sands, and didn't realize that he was entitled to book the HomeTeam NS chalet as well till his colleague told him or sth. Because the chalets were taken up very fast (previously just a few days ago i was looking at Changi Chalet M but it was taken up the next time i tried to book it) , i rushed to book the fairy pt bungalow chalet to ensure that it wouldn't be taken up (and seriously, bungalows 2 and 3 were free the day before but when i went to book it, only bungalow 3 was left so i'm not crazy or anything okay? lol) so this is why we're in this mess now.

I really do apologize for the inconvenience and the unnecessary payment for the cancellation of Aloha Changi.

below are the rates for HomeTeam NS!

1.

$171 HomeTeam Bukit Batok
villa, 2 bedrooms.
bbq pit, full cooking facilities, laser quest, jackpot room, squash court, gym, bowling alley, badminton court, swimming pool, golf driving range, tennis court, karaoke (10 to 30 per hour open from 3pm to 1am)

$107 HomeTeam Bukit Batok (no bedroom, attap house)

facilities are the same as above.
chalet is basically one common area, like a huge room. bbq pit and fridge included. 'sides that, it's totahlee empty. pictures below.

for the bukit batok ones i think there's only the common toilets which sucks. not sure about kitchen either.

$214 HomeTeam Pasir Ris
semi-detached with 4 bedrooms each
bbq pit, bball court, bicycle kiosk, cafeteria, tennis court, NEW jackpot room (wl is excited), canoeing kiosk (i am excited)

$470 Aloha Changi original
toilets/bathrooms with shower heater, BBQ pit and a fully equipped kitchen, didn't state no. of bedrooms but rather 1 queen-sized + 4 single-sized beds, 3 toilets
no facilities :/

looks huge though!

so anyway, i cancelled today so that the cancellation fee would be 10% instead of 25%, but here's the catch. Weiliang will only be able to book 1 month before the check-in date, so on the 1st of Dec, he will try to book for 1st Jan, and if not possible, 8th Dec for 8th Jan and hopefully he'll be able to book one of those dates but in the event that he doesn't, WE WILL HAVE NO CHALET. there, better to prepare everyone now than to break all your little hearts later. lol

okay so there are the 4 possibilities listed above, please type the number of the chalet that you wish to vote for on the tagboard! (seriously if everyone voted for 4 again i'd kill myself. but i doubt so yeah?)

therefore, the total amount of the chalet would be whatever the new fee for the new chalet is, plus 47 bucks.

thank you very extremely much and once again, sorry for all the trouble.

Love much,

Tis

PS: by the way, so sorry to hear that Uni life is cui with crazy projects and tests every 6 weeks or so :/ good luck to all the uni people! kick some ass in the next semester test!

GOODBYE

2009-10-04T19:14:00.003+08:00

Hi. I can't help but to steal this from Tis' blog.
(I don't know why, but she has this whole collection of old stuff/quotes from her handphone. Its quite hilarious)

LOU IS COOL

2009-08-22T23:05:00.000+08:00

Dear All,

I'm posting this cause... I feel like although I'm supposed to be the 2nd marketing person for Lou's pageant thing, I've not been doing much.

So.. Give Lou your congratulations!

Updates

2009-07-29T22:51:00.002+08:00

Hi, there are some updates to the ECP gathering this coming sat.

Firstly, there will no longer be any catering of any food. For the meals, it will be 'settle it on your own' style. This is due to the drastic dip in number of people attending the gathering as compared to projection.

Secondly, the confirmed venue of meet-up will be at the macs at marina/marine cove at approximately 3pm for those not frisbee-ing.

Thirdly, the last update is that im updating you guys on the latest updates of the gathering. LOL...

...BYE BYE...

Announcement

2009-07-20T21:57:00.002+08:00

Hey guys, about the IP gathering at East Coast Park on the 1st of August. It will start at about 2pm with mainly games and recreational activities so if you guys don't exactly wanna take part in the games, you can just turn up at about 6 plus.

Regarding the cost of the gathering, it will cost about 8 to 10 bucks per person. Preferably would be below 10 bucks according to jiayi.

A good reason why you guys should turn up for the gathering is because it is probably one of the last times the entire or majority of the IP cohort can see each other already ( as quoted by jiayi). So just to confirm, our class currently has louisa, clarissa, joel, joanna, zhi rong, gladys and tisiana who are definite goers. Tentative goers are ying ting, natalie and jo lynn who will definitely be going but missing the dinner as she is flying off to neverland to see michael jackson.

In the event that any of our other classmates are attending the event, please do sms me and not just tag it on the class blog tagboard so that i will not miss it out.

Thanks guys.

Regards,
Wei Liang

2009-05-02T22:13:00.003+08:00

Okay homies, most of us must have recieved the 40th College Day invitation.

Details: 16 May 2009, Saturday, 10am - College Auditorium

WHO IS GOING/WHO IS INTERESTED IN GOING?

'cos it'll be nice to see everyone together again.

2009-04-08T11:30:00.002+08:00

Hmm. You know, just go to the website that mel posted in the blog entry below mine. the website is good enough to tell you all the vital information like how to get there, where it is, the highlights, etc.

FYI, it's $22 per adult per entry, and the place does have a couple of tours and shows. there's a tram that goes around the allotted route and takes about 45mins in total, there's a Creatures of the Night show which is performed hourly... and i say we just meet up and have it free and easy and decide what to do there and then.

the displays/night starts at 7.30 at night safari, so we'll have 30mins to decide our plan of action. cheers guys. sms me soooooon! esp the working class. if it's a really tight schedule for you, the timing can be changed.

-boon jin

you better listen to me

2009-04-07T00:30:00.002+08:00

hey guys, boon jin here. howdy do.

i'm in charge here, so you better do as i say.

night safari. I WANT TO GO. and YOU WANT TO GO TOO. i know you do. you guys (girls) want to spend your time with awesome joel before he gets castaway for at least 3 weeks and, this is your only opportunity to do so. thus, treasure it, it's your last chance to see him with hair too.

alright all my nonsense aside, im thinking of meeting early and ending early. we dont want the situation to arise where we all cant take public transport home. i suggest meeting at 7pm (but then again...its not exactly NIGHT at 7) and you have already eaten your dinner. i understand that this might be a tight schedule for the working class, so please raise your concerns and qualms on the tagboard. in lieu of us all getting safely home and not too late, let's end this outing by the latest 10pm.

is everyone okay with this? please sms me to confirm attendance, preferably asap, but please dont be inconsiderate as to tell me at 6pm on thursday. looking at the tagboard, i think the only person who has given a definite confirmation is jlc, so jlc, you need not sms me... unless now you cant make it, of course.

oh, and when i say meet at 7pm i mean meet there at the night safari at 7pm. i'll do my research and find out how much it costs and how to get there tmr and post it here, im really tired now and its 0045.

PS: alright, the truth. I want to spend my time with YOU GUYS cause im living on borrowed time. optimise my time as a civilian y'know. so, yeah, go! =P

ohmygoodness

2009-04-05T15:14:00.003+08:00

UPDATE: JOEL IS NOW IN CHARGE. Please text him! Thanks
(oh, and its his birthday today!!! you guys know what to do)
--

hello, for those who expressed interest in night safari, i have some bad news.
i wont be able to make it. (yes, you read that - the organizer cannot make it)
some have expressed interest (i.e. jlc, joel, mer etc)
so if anyone is willing to take this opportunity to hold this outing (*cough* joel *cough*), please do.
SORRY.
i know im a loser

an announcement

2009-02-18T10:44:00.002+08:00

HELLO PEOPLE

I am posting this from work and risking a skinning so you better listen!

Mr Teo says the NJ comps kinda screwed up and our CIP records are.. kinda gone. Well not totally but think the verified versions are gone. So anyway he needs us to verify our CIP records again!

Thus, he will be visiting us sometime on Saturday (Lou & Tanwei's birthday lunch) to give us our CIP records. We are supposed to verify them and give them back to him asap. He suggests results day. So yeah, a heads up that he'll be appearing on Saturday and giving us SCHOOL-AND-OUR-FUTURE-related stuff. He's not planning to stay for lunch.

Btw when is results day? Most convincing rumor I have heard points to 6 March. What say you?

04 is love.

Skinned

Because Mel said, 'omg. people. if anyone is free, just go and change the "none other than purple". in fact, can change template too .'

And the only few changes that were made (apart from the template) were:

The linking of blogless-people to the class blog
The addition of "Our WikiIP" to "Others"
The installation of Snap Shots (which was necessary, in my opinion, to differentiate between people who really had blogs and those who didn't)
The editing of our blog description to what Jo Lynn has suggested

Meaning that:

People who shy away from linking their personal blogs can rest assured
The KM link is still there
Broken links such as 01's class blog, Cherry's blog, Clar's blog, Maricelle's blog, Sam's blog and our MSN class forum (its existence was only made known a few minutes ago) remain
Lacking labels

But, if you object to the skin for whatever reason:

There's the red version. (Though, it can be said that grey is a much more neutral and sexless colour.)
Here's the html code for the previous blogskin.

That's all! Good morning, day and night! (:

Venue is GLADYS HOUSE, please ask her for directions to her house. Its near zhirong's. (right?)

Pot luck present, 10-20 buck budget. don't forget to bring.

**as the only people who replied have stated that they are not coming, i'm assuming that the rest of you who haven't replied ARE INDEED COMING. So PLEASE TELL ME NOW OR I WILL DELIVER EXTRA ROTTEN FOOD TO YOUR HOUSE! ok i won't, but please be responsible =D

Ok, no one replied for food, so people who are bringing food will be as follows:

frice and spags : zhirong and nat
fingers : mer and celle
deserts : jo and mel
thirsters are by gladys, with ice. =D
joel and tony bring munchables (chips. hahahaha)

everyone is free to bring food that they are proud of, or if they simply wanna contribute!

if you're unable to provide the food, please tell nat or me ASAP, and not like one day before the party, cos you know, that's nasty. we need to find replacements. anyone with other suggestions for food, better tell us by monday, for party is a week away.

so my final words shall be, this is meant to be a happy gathering. lets make this possible, a memorable christmas celebration with 04 awaits.

colin

Jingle bells. Silent nights. Hohoho.

2008-12-15T03:26:00.007+08:00

Well, weiliang ain't around to help us organize christmas party,

so i'm helping this time, and pulled nat, the other ct rep, into it as well.

Ok this is what we've come up with so far.

Venue: The Glady house (although she's agreed to it, she's gonna be so angry with me for this, for it sounds very much like the brady bunch.)

Date: 27th December. This is to accommodate weiliang's release from camp.

Presents will be pot luck like last year. budget also about 10-20 bucks? credit crunch people.
Dinner, as always. So i need people to bring food. Pot luck again.

So, please reply me ASAP so that i can see the kind of delightful treats you plan to bring along. Gladys is providing drinks, typical. (she will fry me alive, but very worth it)

Messaging me would be better. When you message, tell me
1. food you're bringing.
2. suggestions for entertainment?

*entertainment, just watch a movie, can le la. mahjong, anyone?

ok yeah, so keep that date free, will update when i've gotten everyone's responses. a lot of people are overseas now, so might have to wait. so far i know that only tis and johnson won't be in singapore for it. anyone else, please inform as well.

hope your hols have been fun and eventful thus far.

at such an unearthly hour,
colin

05ip04's Rooms

2008-12-08T18:25:00.007+08:00

Hello (: While Weiliang is preparing for his enlistment, I came across Eamonn McCabe - Writers' Rooms online! And if you are too lazy to click on the link, it's basically a project that features a series of photographs that illustrate "the working environments of novelists, biographers and poets". Somehow, I got interested in your working environments! (: Like, aren't you interested to see Kien's gargantuan room in Vietnam? Or Lou's clutter that resulted in the invasion of her brother's room as well? Or frisbees adorning Johnson's wall? Or something? Hence, I propose the following project ~~(that disguises the selfish intention of satisfying my curiosity)~~:

05ip04's Rooms!

Eh. Basically, please send a picture of your room to me! It will eventually end up in a slideshow that is probably accompanied with horribly catchy music like Hot N' Cold or something! (:

If you don't have a room, a picture of your desk is fine! (:
If you don't have a desk, uhh... Decide something!
If you don't have a camera, there's alternatives like webcam, handphone cameras and whatnot! And if worse come to worst, you can use Paint! (:
If you want to draw our attention to specific parts of your room/desk, please feel free to add captions or annotations!

Right. Honestly, I have never made a video or slideshow. However, it shouldn't be that hard! Also, I don't trust myself to do summary-of-four-years-together videos! But this is different! (: And I'm really excited about it! Haha! Of course, I understand if you are unwilling to send in a picture because of privacy issues or the presence of questionable articles. But. If you can, please, please send in a picture to justitiae_soror_fides@hotmail.com! (:

If possible, I would like to finish this by the end of the year! By then, even Lou, Tis and other lucky-long-holiday people should be back! So, if you don't hear from me by then, it would mean that the project has failed. Oh well (: Thank you for reading up to here! Also, good luck to all the guys who are going to the army! Please do not throw yourself onto a grenade or something! (:

Love,
Jade

P.S. I feel like some conman trying to get you to join some dubious lucky draw!

2008-12-06T17:09:00.003+08:00

WEILIANG IS LEAVING THIS TUESDAY.
:(

ALL THE BEST OUR BELOVED CT REP!

CATCH MORE THIEVES.

SO FAR

2008-11-27T17:57:00.002+08:00

And yet another update.
Hello people, I have 14 names for one room.
Anyway, here's the thing - whatever you guys do, PLEASE do not make noise. i.e. - no cards, no mad drinking or poker stripping. Rooms are for resting and I dont want us disturbing other guests. 14 people in 1 room is obscene and we might get chased out.

If i calculate correctly, with mr teo's subsidy, everyone pays about $12.
so please bring about $12. I will be checking in at about 2pm.
WHATEVER YOU DO, DONT COME AT 2PM AT THE SAME TIME. I'm sure the hotel management will be like 0.o... so please, come at different times. Will sms all on saturday yeah?

love
mel

the point is for you to guess who i am. it is quite obvious no?

kick mel's ass!

2008-11-17T09:55:00.006+08:00

READ WEILIANG'S POST BELOW BEFORE READING MINE IN CASE YOU GET MISCONCEPTION. thanks!!! (:

--

okay, i know some people are going to kick me in the ass, but i have booked the hotel room about 2 weeks ago and i cannot NOT cancel it. and because I did not consult others, i do not expect EVERYONE TO BE GOING/PAYING.

i'm trying to see if my parents can sponsor us.. like "hey mom, make this my christmas present. $250 only"). The room that I got was a deluxe room, quite big, and its about $280, when its original was about $300 plus. (CHECK PICTURE HERE [2nd picture]) OR, BETTER IDEA. GET KIEN TO SPONSOR :DDDD

i know there are cheaper rooms at fairmont/swiss, but the reason why my parents got the more ex ones was cos of size (we need bigger rooms) and the lack of availability of the cheaper priced rooms. (peak peroid) PLUS, the discount!!!

when tis and i were collaborating about booking the rooms, i was kinda telling her that it won't be merely used for sleeping. for the girls especially.. you might consider checking in at about 2pm together and then doing the make-up etc. basically, the room is for you to dump your stuff, prepare and also be used as an emergency room. (e.g1: if you need to take a dump and you walk into the public toilet with like 123908123 other NJ people. + e.g2: some nehneh ... *inserts name*... goes drunk postprom and needs to be carried back)

i actually asked my parents if they could book hotel81. im sure you can get $10 an hour. BUT it will be kinda far.. like geylang? (uh... they were obviously not too happy. although my dad was like "actually, not bad idea") . PLUS, they made a good point about transport. If say we stay in town till about 12.30am, how are we going to go the hotel if its like somewhere else?

love,
meltee

p.s: sorry if i kinda did something without consulting the class

p.p.s: because i know half of us wont be blowing $3283901823 on prom, this is a website you may consider using for prom ideas. ITS THE US VERSION, not the SINGAPORE VERSION. so doublecoolness. (CLICK CLICK CLICK)

p.p.p.s: but i think my parents maybe nice and just cut the price for us to be about $180. $180 divide by like 15 people? I dont know man. My math sucks.

suggestion on post prom activities

2008-11-17T00:48:00.002+08:00

hey guys, first of all, let us rejoice that A levels are really coming to an end and perhaps there are even some of us who have finished the exams. Anyway im posting this entry for quite a crucial matter after the exams.

Well to start, first of all lets all acknowledge that after prom night, many of us wanna hang out together and you know, perhaps spend the night as a class. Mel has actually booked a room to faciliate such interactions within our class. however, this hotel room which is booked cost approximately 250 bucks a night and it will definitely not be able to fit our entire class. hence mel tee suggested that there should be 2 rooms booked so that everyone can be housed and also the risk of getting chased out due to overly large sizes by the hotel personnel will be lower. BUT! guess what... this means that a total of about 500 bucks will be spent on ONE NIGHT! and its like 25 bucks per person assuming that 20 people were to turn up. (20 is already quite a generous estimate). to be honest 250 for a night is already considered very cheap for a hotel room especially with the high hotel prices for the past few years and furthermore the super peak period during the school hols. HENCE im sure many people will not be willing to spend this 25 bucks on a SINGLE night as it is definitely very costly! right Gladys? *winks winks*

so here was my suggestion, i initially asked lou to help us check if the national service resort and country club (NSRCC) would be vacant for us to stay in because it MAY be cheaper then hotels in town area. and INDEED it was cheaper at like 240 plus per nite which will be able to hold all of us too! BUT guess what again... we are required to book it for at least 2 nights... so that works out to be again 500 BUCKS! and like 25 bucks person again... and also thats assuming we can even get a chalet. HENCE im sure many people will not be .... *cut and paste from above* right Gladys? *winks winks* Heehee

so finally im already at my wits end, and doing my last mission as your OH SO LOVELY CT-rep, i have thought of a suggestion! why not just stay at someone's house which is big enough and whose parents' won't mind our presence. (our presence is surely and undoubtedly unmistakable with rani and SEOW AH! around us.) perhaps someone could volunteer their home soon?

*please do your part for charity! take these homeless kids into your house and embrace them with all the love you can spare. we are such a lovable bunch of ip kids*

on a more serious note, yeah so any of you who can loan the house for free, please do inform ok? thanks! inform thru class blog or thru hp also can.

and lastly, who wanna go out on 19th of november? (seems like everyone has finished their exams already right? HAHA!) alright anybody up for a class outing before prom night? just feel free to post your views on having one. *yes rani i know you want one real bad, hence i know your response even before asking*

Yours Dearly,
OH SO LOVELY CT-rep

uplifting song

2008-10-23T20:06:00.005+08:00

hey guys, i just felt so compelled to share this.

how's your studying for a levels coming along? not too good? well, that day i was reading a physics text, trying to concentrate. and then some china scholar neighbours, very nice they are, blasted this song from their room, for a couple of minutes.

one attempted to sing along.

here are the lyrics, i hope you can truly relate to it and have your own hannah montana experience, wherever you are.

Everybody makes mistakes...

Everybody has those days...

Everybody knows what, what I'm talkin' 'bout...

Everybody gets that way....

blahblahblahIf I'm not doin' too well (clap clap clap)

Why be so hard on my self?????????????!!

Nobody's Perfect!I gotta work it!Again and again till I get it right!Nobody's Perfect!You live and you learn it!And if I mess it up sometime!Nobody's PERFECT!!!!!!

:):):)<333

the song doesn't even make sense, but i googled the image results for this song. below, i present some relevant findings. once again, i hope you're truly inspired by this song to study hard, somehow. if you need sense knocked into you, i'm sure mer will do so, albeit a bit violently. peace.

Teachers' Day

2008-08-30T22:43:00.005+08:00

Gathering at Darius' house, 29/08/08.

details for teachers' day

2008-08-28T20:12:00.002+08:00

hey guys, for tomorrow's teachers' day celebrations there are quite a few matters to be answered here.

1. you must report in PE attire tmr for school as we are starting with aces' day workout.

2. you are allowed to wear anything after the workout, however, mr teo suggested that we wear something uniform so he suggested an adidas theme. BUT due to the unforeseen circumstances, many people do not have adidas related apparels so we will have to do without it. i was thinking, why not guys turn up in pink, purple or gay looking coloured tops, while girls wear more dull colours (LIKE A MAN!) anyway that is only my suggestion. i suppose its too hard to finalize anything at this moment because its kinda late and people probably have different senses of dressing so there will be people with certain colours and others don't. however if it does happen that everyone is wearing the proposed colours for guys and girls tomorrow, that would indicate your obedience towards your "oh so mighty" ct-rep.

3. for tomorrow's lunch outing, as it is going to be quite a large number of people going for the outing, we need a big enough place to hold about 15 people. so yeah seoul garden's one of the only ones where i can has space for us. regarding the price matter (yes gladys im doing this for your sake ONLY because you are the ONLY one who has pointed out that seoul garden is too ex) there has been some issues on those who are financially tight like gladys, Pei Wen, Chen Pei Wen, gladys tan and gladys tan pei wen so yeah as you see that there are quite a number of people who have objected to seoul garden's high prices, i suppose we will just have to STICK WITH SEOUL GARDEN! HAHA!! so yeah lunch will be at about 12.30 or anytime that the students' lunch begins. please do sms me again even if you have done so previously if you are going so that i can book for tomorrow as i anticipate a crowd tomorrow.

Thank you all for listening to my announcement for this is your "oh so mighty" ct rep. MWAHAHAHAHAHA!

its prelims, but you gotta check this out

2008-08-23T20:22:00.004+08:00

yeah, when you're taking a break, surfing blogs and stuff, and you end up here:
http://politics.sgforums.com/forums/1390/topics/326361
you wonder whether you're meet this kind of people in real life.

Dear all, I'm an army wife and my husband is a SAF regular army officer.

One of the many primary reasons I married my husband is because of his dashing uniform. We were fixed up by someone we knew mutually and had many email conversations over a month before we met. He sent me a picture of him in his no.4 uniform and immediately, I fell in love with the way he looks in it (i didn't say i fell for him immediately). I felt myself swooning.

When we began dating, he invited me once to a parade in his camp and when I saw him in person in his no.4 uniform, I was sure and told myself I will make this man my husband. The whole get-up made my knees weak. On our wedding, he wore his no.1.

Anyway, I was horrified to find out that SAF was going to change the no. 4 uniform. What was worse is that the new uniform is unspeakably ugly. It looks like pyjamas and the camo print is hideous. The colours are gross too, with a lot of brown, very weird, looks like crap. The colors of the current one are perfect and manly. And the camo print of this current one is perfect too. The cut, lapels, badges, collar, cutting are perfect.

LOLOLOLOL. so i guess.... the uniforms the guys are gonna wear next year are gonna be ... gross?

Recreating the IP1 Dance Party Experience

2008-08-08T10:44:00.003+08:00

hello people!

i just reached home and i have this sudden urge to blog about national day because well, its really fresh in my mind. i don't know whether its the prelims or because its our last year, but we were really high. like REALLY. the last time we were this high was like what? IP1 dance party. i mean, like jolynn puts it "really don't care. loose face la. nobody will remember us"

highlights of today
(so when i read the archives 10 years down the road, i'll figure "hey, that was good ol' times)

1) attacking gladys with bubbles
( pretty ironic because gladys + bubbles go well, or so i believe)

2) making zhirong answer the NE question!
(like we always do)

3) being the 1st class to stand up during the national song because its oh-so-boring
(which spurred the others to stand)

4) going onto the podium/stage and uh... trying to protray school/national spirit
( yes, jolynn, wilbert and i made a fool out of ourselves. like 3 of us went up, and the councillors stopped the rest. stood on the black stage for like 30 sec. then later, *WOAH* entire IP went up to the flagpole area... i wonder how come nobody like did anything stupid)

5) singing the last national day song with actions and making mr teo do it with us.
( seriously lol.)

6) trying to recreate our IP1 picture.
(we need to do that again. in same position with noob hair and noob specs. it'll be fun)

7) kien singing the national day song!!!!!

8) realizing that colin was missing halfway.
i heard someone say this
"eh, where's colin?"
"he overslept la"
"wahlao. he will enjoy this"

Do you remember National Day as this fun/high? I mean, for the last 2 years, I've just been sitting around and stoning and complaining how lame it was. But what the heck. ITS THE LAST YEAR. The next event is... teachers day? Will anything happen? What the heck,

HAPPY NATIONAL DAY!

Hello (: I was looking through geog trip pictures ~~(to find an unglam shot of Jo the pok so that I can get back at her for consistently posting super unglam shots of me)~~ and discovered this picture! (: Oh! Also, Shi Hui has a picture of Colin actually grinning on her facebook!

Class Photos

And I was feeling a little nostalgic so I dug out our old class photos and scanned them! Had the "prophetic intution" that one day, I eventually will either misplace them or spill coke on them or something. So here are those that I have! (:

IP ONE. Not commenting on anyone lest it inspires backlash. Oh. Sorry lou, the bad quality of the scans makes you look like a pirate! Purely unintentional, I swear.

When there were twenty-six! (: On a side note, my scanner makes this "about-to-be-castrated" sound when it scans stuff. It's extremely disturbing!

IP TWO. I never did receive the photos that I ordered. Our "most beloved CT-rep" offered to photocopy the pictures for me. Ha. Ha. Ha. Anyway, I would really like to have the pictures! (: So if anyone is willing to scan them in (after the A' levels) or maybe lend them to me, it will be greatly appreciated! (:

IP THREE. Whenever I look at this photo, I start laughing like mad at Sam! (: Don't you?

Isolated Gladys is smirking at her book.

Anyway, congrats to Yi Hoong and Nat for eating their first chicken cutlet in four years! (: Haha! Alright. Shan't bother you no more.

GOOD LUCK (STUDYING) FOR THE PRELIMS! (:

Love,
Jade

sorry to bring up the topic of updating your CAAL portfolio whilst everyone is posting happy/disturbing posts. (referring to joel's beautiful hair post)

I was talking to Mdm Khoo Bee Chan today (the one in charge of scholarship applications) and I clarified with her regarding how much we need to "reflect" on every single thing we had done in school /: basically, she told me (and gave me the permission to spread the word around) that the reflections are not going to be published in your leaving cert/portfolio/whereever, thus it is not that impt. So please don't tear your hair apart if you can't force yourself to squeeze out 2000words (: yups. According to Mdm Khoo, reflections are only important if you decide to put the achievement in your leaving cert (:

Hope that helps and you guys can get more sleep because of it! (:

ps: zhirong. pls stop acting gay in front of me. it's really traumatising /:

SPLASH! <33

c'mon people, it's happy time. if you still ain't loosening up, why don't you just try imagine zhirong topless under that big big faucet. don't that just give you a warm fuzzy feeling.

so c'mon 04, let's quit the yellin' and cut each other some slack. remember, it's only okay to make a splash if you're not wetting someone else's socks. chill out!

2008-07-26T19:07:00.002+08:00

Mel's right but I feel like someone's got to defend clar. clar has nothing to apologize for. She was harsh but she said what really happened and it wasn't mean. She wasn't trying to push responsibility, wasn't deliberately trying to make a fuss. She was just worried that if mr teo asks to see the Jurong cip records, there would be none. And she would get the blame, which has happened before. So please try to understand that mr teo has been harsh on her for this whole cip thing, and she was voicing her unhappiness because the class seems half-hearted about the class cip,not just because someone didn't want to get the records.

And to the anoynymous 'bystander', I thought you sounded mean with the "dearly beloved" and "it's really funny..."if you want to say these things please say who you are. And I feel that it is not clar's obligation as a rep to do everything personally herself. She has already done her duty by assigning the job of getting the records to someone.

Not to point fingers but I feel like some people in class do not take ownership of the cip even though it is class cip. I'm not clar so I wouldn't know how she feels. But I think this is part of the reason why she was annoyed. Like since the person(s) clar asked didn't want to get the records, it makes clar feel like people in class don't even care about their own hours. The issue here is not so much whether our not the jurong records are needed(sorry gladys), but 04's general attitude to cip. There was a time when clar asked some people in class to do things for cip and the things were not done on time. I don't think clar herself minded this much, she would have just given them more time. But mr teo blames her for these things when she did already assign them to people. you may say that it is her job to ensure the things were done on time, but i feel like there shouldn't be a need for a pressurizing class cip experience where clar has to constantly make sure that people do the things they were asked to do. I don't think anyone wants that...we want to enjoy class cip as much as possible. AND we have been a class for nearly 4 years so I think clar trusted us to do things we were asked to do without her chasing us.

Sorry to bring up all these old touchy issues. I just feel like if I do, people will understand clar's position more. To gladys and those hurt, I really hope you'll understand that clar was not deliberately to hurt anyone. She just needed to voice her unhappiness about our attitude to cip and this records thing was the most convenient example. please don't take it as a personal attack. And the thing about mr teo blaming clar when things are not done is not imaginary, I can vouch for it because i have seen and heard the way he talks to her. Because of class cip, he thinks clar is a "l (i don't need to say it because we all heard it in class) leader". I don't think this would have happened if we were more cooperative with clar. clar shouldn't have to take a "strong-leadership" approach in managing class cip when we have been a class for nearly 4 years.

I know we're all busy so this time i don't think its anyone's fault. But imagine yourself in clar's position. When you ask someone more than once to get the records and they don't want to, you feel like you're very alone in this whole cip thing. I think whoever was asked thought that clar would ask someone else, but to clar the person's refusing to go, even though heshe stays nearest to the centre, was not an encouraging sign that others who live even further from the centre would agree to go. And the fact that the person says they can't go and don't try to ask other jurong people after the 2nd time being asked makes clar think that people don't care about their records. I know its not heshe's responsibility to ask others but since this is class cip, maybe we take more ownership of it. Not blaming you, cos if i was asked and couldn't go i wouldn't think to ask others either.

Calamity on Class Blog!

2008-07-26T16:05:00.007+08:00

CHILLAX WILL YA?

Can everyone stop being angst-y because I personally feel that we're making a mountain out of a molehill. I mean, yeah, opinions stated, stuff said. Let's keep it that way. I don't see why we need to keep tagging and putting up posts about this issue.

I know we want to justify our actions, and that there maybe people in the wrong, but let's face it, its getting a tad bit childish? Let's stop it. We're 18, not 14 or 13. There has been about 5 posts, more than 15 tags about this issue and I think its enough.

This is a class blog. I don't see a reason why we should use this as a medium to judge people's actions. In fact, I don't see a reason why we have to keep harping on this issue. I know there are angry parties out there, but I think we have to deal with this as professionally as possible. In other words, do this face to face. Not this way. So no more online anonymity, personal attacks and all that.

When Darius and I created this blog, our 1st blog post was something like IP 04 Rocks/Keep up the class spirit/04 OEI! (click link if you don't believe me) I know I'm some lameass peacemaker, but I really believe there is no need for such harsh opinions or criticisms on an online portal. In fact, there is no need for people to become over emotional over our CIP.

(Hello, CIP?!?!?! Its like secondary! Brotherhood comes first?) Come on, we have spent 3 1/2 years together. There is only like less than 100 days to A levels, and about 5 more months before we go our different ways. And now, we're arguing over something small like CIP. A bit silly right?

Please stop it before it becomes some nuclear bomb.

in favor of peace,
mel.

2008-07-26T13:34:00.004+08:00

Dearly beloved clar,

It's really funny how you capitalise 'someone' and then say it wasn't directed at anyone. Clearly, you're pissed off. Anyway, two points to make.

Firstly, convenience aside. You're the CIP rep and there's nothing arguable about that. Being appointed, you are definitely more obligated then anyone of us, assuming it is not inconvenient for you. You can't simply say you "really don't care" just because someone else fails to do a job you're more responsible for. Note: I'm not saying that it is compulsory for you but rather that you're more obliged to as compared to the rest of us.

Secondly, I'm pretty sure we all know inconvenient it is. Therefore, I don't think anyone in class would blame you for such an issue. But the fact that you're asked a favour from SOMEONE, got refused and then became pissed (a very obvious emotion that screamed itself to me while I read your post) made me feel unjustified for that SOMEONE. I don't think that "nobody wants or cares about their records" but rather, it is simply as inconvenient for them as well. As much as you can and wish to accomplish in your one and a half hour, they similarly can and wish to do as much in their half and hour.

yours truly,
bystander

so what we're saying is that it's not that we don't appreciate what you're doing, but when you make such a huge commotion over this and say that you 'already tried your best to get it but you really can't', we don't see how that criteria was accomplished.

this is how i see it.

if i happened to be the cip rep, and it wasnt convenient for me to get it, i'll (like you) request someone else to help me do it. but if they (unable or unwilling) cant make it, i will be rather irritated with the situation but i would still go down to get it myself, seeing that i am the cip rep so it's my responsibility to do so.

clar, im not going against you but i just want you to know that this is how a few of us perceive this issue.

tis (the above was written by a bystander who's not from our class but wanted to get his/her point across)

2008-07-25T21:56:00.002+08:00

The CIP/CCA thing is under Student Centre> My Profile> View Details> CAAL

And there is no need to create a new CIP form because the CIP thing is under Class Home Adoption Programme.

2008-07-25T21:18:00.002+08:00

Gee. I guess it wasn't very obvious but let me clarify something. Whatever I said wasn't pointed at anyone, nor was it meant to hurt anyone. I was just trying to give an example and that was the most convenient one. So if you feel hurt, SORRY. I am NOT pissed off at a specific person, contrary to popular belief so stop saying I am. The truth is when the 2 people whom i asked to go get the records said no, i didn't have very much feeling because i guess if nobody wants or cares about their records then why should i tear my hair out trying to think of ways to go down to get it? I did not blame anyone. I just said that there will be no records for the jurong people because there is no way to get the records because no one can (or is willing to) go down. Or at least that is what I was trying to get across.

I was just trying to do things systematically and trying to get the records so all those who actually did a lot of hours will be duly awarded the hours. But I guess I shouldn't have done the right thing. I should just have forgotten about everything and then just tell you all to write whatever you want. Yeah. And I guess I was wrong in trying to be considerate too because it seems as if you guys don't really want your hours very much. I should have just said that there are no records and thus, no one has any hours. Right. I also find it really funny how one group of people at the bukit batok centre can conscientiously clock their times while the other cannot. The most funny thing is how I'm trying to get it for the very people who are not very grateful.

So forget the chop and forget the hours. Just pretend I didn't say anything, ok?

from the other CIP rep

2008-07-25T12:22:00.002+08:00

OK. Yes clar, you are angry. We know. No one is going to ask you if you are because you have obviously shown your wrath.
However, there was NO NEED to upset everyone and hurt people in the process. I hate to have to use your way to do this but i really have to get this off my chest because it's making everyone unhappy.

Let me address a few issues.

1. Recording of CIP hours clocked in.
For the Jurong people, there was confusion because different groups of people went down each week. As a result,no proper records were kept. However, each of us should have a rough idea of how many hours we went down for. To be honest, that one.. it's our individual responsibility. NO one is that hard up four hours. NO ONE is going to cheat on the hours. Therefore guys, just key in what you can remember onto KM first.
What actually is REQUIRED is a CIP feedback form stamped and signed by the centre. The person in contact with the centre, means our CIP rep, clar, is responsible in obtaining it from the person. EVEN IF the princpal is too busy, she can fax it over to the school. If for some reason they don't even have a fax machine, come on, i think Mr Teo or who ever is going to verify our hours will understand that since it is so last minute, and all of us are sitting in our prelims in 3 weeks, worse come to worse don't get signiture. WORSE COME TO WORSE FORFEIT OUR HOURS.

2. The difference between half and hour and one and a half hours.
NOT MUCH. Honestly. Mr/ Miss half and hour said it was inconvenient. I think it was a valid excuse since he/her is really NOT responsible to do that. In addition, this is the period of remedials, extra lessons and low morales. I would think that you clar, didn't want to go down too because it was one and a half hours away and yes, VERY INCONVENIENT. We don't blame you for thinking that way too but wouldn't Mr/Miss half and hour feel indignant about being blamed for not DOING YOU A FAVOUR. To be honest, the form could have been signed on the last day of our painting since we knew that it was obviously going to be the last time. THAT ASIDE, NO ONE WILL BLAME YOUR FOR NOT GOING DOWN but the fact that you blamed another person.. is just upsetting since IT IS your responsibility. I'm sure that if you had tried and had not been able to get us our hours, all of us at jurong centre WOULD HAVE WILLLING FORFEITED OUR HOURS.

3. Screwing up CIP.
Honestly guys, our CIP is screwed and that is no one's fault. It's a combination of factors topped of by the fact that we are in our J2 YEAR!!! Mr Teo has never been angry that we have screwed up our CIP but more because there are periods of time whereby things get left untouched and no one inititiates a thing. ( correct me if I'm wrong). Even the last time round he got angry was because NO ONE was listening to clar when she spoke. That is quite different guys so clar, you don't have to feel stressed that Mr Teo blames your for our CIP screw ups because from my impression, it has never happened. I don't know where you go the idea from.

I am being very honest here because i, like many others feel upset and indignant for Mr/Miss half and hour.

Gladys

2008-07-25T11:22:00.002+08:00

Ok, I was not trying to coerce anyone into going to get the records.

Don't ask me if I'm angry because I obviously am. Why do I care so much about YOUR records when YOU don't even care about it yourselves? Anyway, the whole matter is settled, sort of. The Jurong people didn't even record their hours down anyway, even when I gave them a list to, so there is no need to go collect the non existent records. There is no need for a chop from the centre because Mr Teo can verify that we HAVE been doing CIP (this is according to the 05ip05 people i asked). Besides, YOU have to get YOUR own chop if you want your CIP hours "proved" (although there is no need to), and not blame me that YOU didn't get the chop as it is not my responsibility to get the chop for YOU.

So the Jurong people, just key in as many hours as you want, I trust that you will be responsible and honest people.

2008-07-24T10:10:00.004+08:00

Hi, here are the cip records for the bukit batok centre people.

YiHoong-16
Jade-13
Meltee-13
Sam-6
Jolynn-9
Shaodan-11
Johnson-6
Tony-2.5
Kien-2.5
Joanna-2.5
Nat-2.5
yingting-2.5

If your name is not here, you have no records. For the Jurong people, sorry your records are not here. SOMEONE thought it was (I quote,) "inconvenient" to go down to retrieve the records because he lives half an hour away, although it is not inconvenient for me to go get it, because i only live ONE AND A HALF hours away. Whatever, it is your records, i really don't care because i've already tried my best to get it but i really can't.

If I could choose to be CIP rep again, I would NEVER DO IT. You guys have no idea how hard it is to make things work with people who don't even cooperate, and then I'm the one who gets grilled because things were not done.

Whatever.

such an achievement!

2008-07-14T23:07:00.002+08:00

hey guys did you all realise that our class blog is the only blog that's still kicking actively? congrats to 04! what a fantastic class this is!

Address of centre: Blk 452 Jurong West St 42 #01-170

Buses to get there: Er, I only know of 157... from opp NJ. Drop at blk 551 or after blk 553. Dunno which one is nearer.

if u drop at jurong west ave 1 blk 454, you can take buses 99, 157, 185, 198, 335, 502 and 542

similar if you drop at block 457, except no 542

best way is to go to clementi interchange and take bus 99, its a loop service, and it will pass block 454, 18 stops counting the interchange and the final point itself.

*info from weiliang.

The more you come down the faster we can finish and get this done with!

P.S. Anyone who has relatives in the paint industry/can get us discount please notify me.

P.P.S Please help pass this message around. If I don't get your email by sun (and I don't mean sun at midnight) I will assume you are not coming.

Cheers!

Hi class, this is regarding the mural painting.

Ms Lee of Jurong West centre has been devilishly difficult to contact because she has been very busy. So anyway, as of now, the painting is still unconfirmed. Shall try to contact her again tomorrow and see how it goes. But be on stand by!

Hello (: Since Sam is too lazy to post (again) and this cannot remain unshared, here's the picture of ultimate gayness! We wonder why.

And to neutralize things, here's the welcome sign that we completed at the Bukit Batok Centre!

And here's the original plan that has been approved by ________ (I have forgotten her name, sorry). Yeps. THE JUNGLE HUT (:

And lastly, Shaodan on her birthday! We wanted her to ride around on that giraffe thing! She didn't, of course. A consolation picture?
Here's a little something for the upcoming math lecture test! The zip file titled "Creative Outlets for Frustration by Math Exam Takers" is available on KM, under the KI Math folder. Apparently, Mr. Dio has too much time. Here's another glimpse into how he spends his time. Honestly. Heh. Good luck for the test, by the way (:

Love,
Jade

For our dearest CT!

I write this on behalf of the class.

MR TEO, THANKS SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING. WE LOVE YOU!

Your guidance towards us was woaahhh! And seriously, nothing could have been possible without you! Dedication man. SERVICE WITH HONOUR! Can't imagine how much effort and time you put in just to find unnecessary mistakes in our work, just to make sure we get the extra edge and just to make sure we are near perfection.

So thank you once again, congrats on your promotion and yes, we were very emo when you cried too.

from the class,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHAODAN!

Hello (: Because I have finally gotten (and remembered) the username and password from Mel, here's a mediacorp actress who looks like Lou! Sam found it and there are more pictures over at her blog entry! By the way, Lou thinks that the actress is darn ugly and well, you can point out the striking and undeniable resemblance between the two of them (:

And if you still can't see it, here! (Yes, I have no life)

Alright. Sorry for posting such a useless post. Haha. Maybe there will be CIP pictures or pictures of Jo's dinner soon!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JO! (:

And thank you to those who planned it (: Shaodan and Tony's birthdays are coming up soon! Enjoy your weekend!

Jurong Centre: I know you guys want to do the mural from wednesday to friday but since you cannot gurantee that you all can finish it in one shot, the principal would prefer that we do it in the June Holidays as she feels that unfinished mural is quite ugly. So i guess the painting is off for now.

Bukit Batok Centre: I have heard rumors that somebody told you all that the principal wants all 11 people to be down at one time and since only a few can make it each time you all have decided to "abandon" the centre. I have discussed with the Principal and she said that she have never said anything like this and that this is incorrect information. So there is no such thing as abandoning the centre and everyone stays in their respective centres. I am very angry at the person who spread this false message.

sleep and how we (teenagers) need it

2008-03-02T19:37:00.003+08:00

Just a random article you can use for GP and just something I thought the class needs to justify why we sleep in class and stuff.

What are the Facts about Sleep and Teens?

* Sleep is vital to your well being, as important as the air you breathe, the water you drink and the food you eat. It can even help you to eat better and manage the stress of being a teen.

* Biological sleep patterns shift toward later times for both sleeping and waking during adolescence -- meaning it is natural to not be able to fall asleep before 11:00 pm.

* Teens need about 9 1/4 hours of sleep each night to function best (for some, 8 1/2 hours is enough). Most teens DO NOT get enough sleep -– one study found that only 15% reported sleeping 8 1/2 hours on school nights.

* Teens tend to have irregular sleep patterns across the week -- they typically stay up late and sleep in late on the weekends, which can affect their biological clocks and hurt the quality of their sleep.

* Many teens suffer from treatable sleep disorders such as narcolepsy, insomnia, restless legs syndrome or sleep apnea.

Sleep Deprivation has Serious Consequences

Not getting enough sleep or having sleep difficulties can:

* Limit your ability to learn, listen, concentrate and solve problems. You may even forget important information like names, numbers, your homework or a date with a special person in your life;

* Make you more prone to pimples. Lack of sleep can contribute to acne and other skin problems;

* Lead to aggressive or inappropriate behavior such as yelling at your friends or being impatient with your teachers or family members;

* Cause you to eat too much or eat unhealthy foods like sweets and fried foods that lead to weight gain;

* Heighten the effects of alcohol and possibly increase use of caffeine and nicotine; and

* Contribute to illness, not using equipment safely or driving drowsy.

What does Teen Sleep have to do with School Start Times?

Is your brain still on the pillow when school starts?

If teens need about 9 1/4 hours of sleep to do their best and naturally go to sleep around 11:00 pm, one way to get more sleep is to start school later.

Teens' natural sleep cycle puts them in conflict with school start times. Most high school students need an alarm clock or a parent to wake them on school days. They are like zombies getting ready for school and find it hard to be alert and pay attention in class. Because they are sleep deprived, they are sleepy all day and cannot do their best.

Schools that have set later bell times find that students do not go to bed later, but get one hour more of sleep per school night, which means five hours more per week.

Enrollment and attendance improves and students are more likely to be on time when school starts. Parents and teachers report that teens are more alert in the morning and in better moods; they are less likely to feel depressed or need to visit the nurse or school counselor.

the person called "clar" has a point. now lets practise discretion and remain anonymous in our posts.
someone has a great idea for the party.

i rigged my laptop to my tv downstairs, so we can view pictures from my laptop blown up on the tv screen. someone has suggested that since many of us have gone overseas during the holidays, why not have a photo viewing session during the party? some people went to japan for something recently, while some other people went to america for something else. so bring along your photos in a data medium such as a thumb drive or CD and load it on my computer.

what do you think of the idea? btw, another thing to add for directions to my place: you can take 169 from amk mrt station. its a 20-30min ride to my place from there.
