HELLO EVERYONE! :D
i'm feeling quite high now cos my siaotingtong partner&bestest friend NUR MASTURA AYU is online now!! she taught me weird ways of insulting people in malay. the phrases that she taught me are damn super random&hilarious! we're talking in caps now cos i think it's fun. i told you i'm feeling high. (read: extremely crazy)
oh let me tell everyone about this new word that we invented together-
siaotingtongkelongpongpong.
it simply means extreme&total madness. (:
does any one have a lot of cotton wool lying around your house that you have no need for? if you do, please pass whatever you can to me! i need it for OG matters. but sms or IM me first, cos i dun wanna end up with too much cotton wool.
&before i leave, i must say that
I LOVE YOU MAN TUALA!!!
one day i shall tell everyone your various nicknames, almost all thought up by yours truly. (: &then you will threaten to kill me, but you'll never do it cos you love me.
replies to tags:
sh- it's cos you're still in denial (:
NEZZ- hey girl! thanks yeah? i've just linked you. shall be paying your blog a visit real soon!
verine- hellooo!! i love all the pictures in your blog! &i've linked you too.
Mastura- I LOVE SH, JUWANDA&TUALA!!

hi all!
today i shall fill my post with pictures. i actually brought my camera along, cos i got frustrated with not being able to upload my photos that i take with my phone into the computer, resulting in the lack of pictures.

right, so today Gladys, Denice, Yanqi&i headed down to IMM to support SAJC&The Salvation Army in their fundraising efforts. so met up with Gladys at Outram park, then waited for the rest at Jurong station.


after meeting up with Yanqi, we walked to IMM&met up with Denice. while we were eating, Yijie showed up&joined us. went off to the sky garden at IMM after that to buy some of the glassware for ourselves.


headed back down to Mac's to discuss the OG outing at Sentosa. we bought a large cup of Coke, &i drank a LOT, so much that i got a stomach ache.



did some shopping, then headed up to find Yijie, who was on duty, cos he said he found a cup which he thinks was made by an OG member. but it wasn't.

we then proceeded to Daiso to do more shopping for saturday's outing. Yijie met us after he finished his duty, so we paid up&headed to mini toons to get sweets, &home after that. oh yah, the MRT was super ridiculously packed with people! it was utter madness, seriously. the train even stopped for a while in between two stations! it was really crazy. what in the world were all those people doing in Jurong?!

anyway, i was super tired on the journey back. no idea what caused the fatigue, but i was ready to curl up in my seat&start snoring. thanks for turning up guys, it was fun even with only a few of us there! (:

WHEE!

feeling good today for some reason, even though i did something bad. out of my whole CG, as in the ones who take H1 chinese, skipped Chinese tutorial just now. except for 2 people, who actually went for that hour-and-a-half long class.

so she complained to my CT, &so tomorrow we have to apologise to our teacher. she's nice, but the lessons are so dry. not to mention that i neither like, nor am good at, the language.

anyway, went to Bishan Community Club's gym to work out just now with Yvonne, Verine, Gus, Joash, &Nic. yvonne told me we were going to eat at Junction 8, but we ended up in the gym. yvonne left really early, but the rest of us stayed on.

had a super light workout&headed out for dinner, but Gus didn't come with us cos he wasn't feeling well. met the infamous Sherman who introduced us to good food at this coffee shop near Junction 8. went to the playground&went on this thing that spinned in circles really fast! it was so fun but i was damn dizzy when we finally got that thing to stop. FUN! (:

i've got photos! only cos i took them from Verine's blog, not cos i managed to get the stupid programme to function as it should. urghh.

replies to taggers:
krist- i'm so sorry!! i didn't realise that i forgot to put the word "blogspot" in. i will edit it asap. (: &yes, WE ROCK!!
muska- no matter what kind of nickname you give yourself, i will continue to reveal your true identity SIM FAWWAZ. &yah, i'm too lazy to tag. maybe i will one day.
Mastura- how to whack yourself?!! SIAO. anyway, its more satisfactory to whack you myself. too bad you remember. remember "stucked"? haha(:

PEEK-A-BOO!
oh man that was so lame. i have nothing to do today!! ok, i probably do, but i'm not going to do it. (:

so i've been looking through all the photo albums stored in my computer, &decided to share some with you guys. this is what we[mas,dee,nad&i] did when we were supposed to be studying at my house. i'm sure they remember all this! we slacked more than we studied.



yes, we're quite absurd. but you have to agree that almost anything beats mugging, right? i only know one person who loves to study [winks to mas. clue:tarzan]. i will whack you super hard if you forget about this ok!

i miss those girls. the whole lot of us canteen table buddies need to meet up one day. really miss the secondary school days cos you guys really made secondary school the best time of my life. everyone is so enthusiastic&united, it's really great. screw the people who look down on us neighbourhood kids, we know we rock. (:
i mean, come on, where else will you find a class that maintains so many fishtanks without help from anyone, &a school that allows us to have all those fishtanks? see, i told you-

we rock. <3

history tutorial, 14 questions, due tomorrow.
maths tutorial, 7 questions, due tomorrow.
literature test, 25 words, also tomorrow.

it's only the first intake of JC&they're already piling us on with work. urghh. my teachers are nice though, so that makes things better. can't imagine having a tyrant for a teacher, that'd be horrible.

i actually planned on putting more pictures of the chalet, but since i've work to do, i shall be a good student&attempt to finish at least some of the work.

bye all. &those with no homework, don't gloat! your time will come soon.

i've got the pictures from mastura&qudsia already!!

so let's go on a picture journey all the way until the owner of the camera went home. ok so first was the interaction&photo taking&twister! oh plus the BBQ! total success, was super fun.


right, so after most of the people went back when the BBQ ended, qudsia, siewhong&i went to McCafe cos they were falling asleep. reached back later on, slept for about 45 minutes, then woke up at around 2am. waited for some of the guys to finish playing their xbox games [rae brought his xbox there] then headed to the beach.
asyraf, siewhong, rae, asiq&i lay on our trash bags looking at the sky for awhile, singing stupid songs&thinking of different uses for the trash bags&trying to find stars in the red-tinged sky. then we used qud's sandcastle building set&attempted to make a sandcastle, but we failed to.
walked across the mud&puddles in our trashbags, &asiq saw tadpoles in the puddles! so cute. oh&i stupidly forgot to carry my slippers, so i had to walk back across the mud again to get them.
went back at around 6am, &some of the guys were getting ready to go off to work. in the morning when we woke up, there was only eight people left. cabbed back home as they were all too tired to take the bus.
(:
I LOVE 4C!

the class chalet yesterday?
yeah.

IT WAS A BLAST!

finally met up with all my favourite people!! first met up with my partner-in-crime&one of my all-time bestfriends- Nur Mastura Ayu! missed her like crazy ok?! we used to spend almost every waking hour together, disturbing siewhong&qudsia in class. &of cos not forgetting my other bestfriend whom i haven't met in way too long a time- Dinah Faradinah! they are the best friends a girl can have, really. must show them off to everyone, so look-
we were supposed to be mugging.
my beautiful bestfriends(:

ok now back to the chalet. there are so many pictures! mastura is sending them to me now, so i have to wait until i've downloaded everything before i can post anything up here. so just be patient, it'll be up soon.
&i haven't done my stupid chinese composition. urghh.
meanwhile, let me entertain you with something mainly Asiq&i came up with yesterday while the bunch of us were lying on trash bags which we placed on the grass, waiting for the sun to rise.


7 Uses of the Trash Bag
1. to dispose of things
2. to prevent our backs from getting dirty when lying on grass
3. to keep our legs warm when the cold sea breeze blows in
4. to lose weight off our legs [when your legs sweat in the trash bag]
5. to use as a sack to play the sack race
6. to help keep your valuables when you fall asleep
7. to keep your feet clean when walking across mud


so we have decided- for the next class chalet, we'll just buy a couple of rolls of trash bags instead of booking a chalet. (:

i don't want to do the stupid tutorials!!!

ok the tutorials aren't stupid, it's just that i'm way too lazy to do them. the worst homework has to be the chinese composition. yes yes, i take chinese but i do not like it at all. i was so happy to get the 'O' level examinations over with during mid-2006. but i can't hide from it forever- crap.

then there's history tutorial, which i totally forgot about. &gp too, but that's more fun cos it's just the newspaper article homework, which is something which we've been doing since primary school.

BUT
there's 4C Class Chalet today!
totally looking forward to meeting all my super crazy, absolutely insane friends again! missed them like mad! my JC friends already think i'm retarded, but you guys haven't seen the extent that my Sec.4 class can go to. it's fun to be crazy, cos if not, life would be mundane.

some people are already there ok! &i'm still stuck at home cos i'll only be meeting mastura at 4pm to go there with her.


[from left, clockwise: a huge board i made for Mr. Lee for Teachers' Day on behalf of the class, my group of crazy friends taken during prom, some of my teachers cutting their Teachers' Day Cake, &class photo of 4C all dressed up!]

LOVE YOU PEOPLE!

replies to tags:
Niccs- tag more often&write a bit more. but yeah, OG2 ROCKS!
jas- yeah, wonderful is the right word to describe it (:
amelia- YAH! we should make more poems inspired by the ones we do in class- ok. it's so fun-in that sense. &it's always fun when you crap with me. i know you like me, you wanna kiss me. HAHA! (:

HELLO!

so econs test today was some case study, not what i expected. but, yah, just wrote some stuff about resources&PPC&what not in awfully large handwriting.

then went for what i thought were dance auditions, but actually they were looking for people to dance for SYF this year. it's quite fun to go back to dancing again, so i will continue going for the dance lessons on wednesdays. (:

ok now for the most important part of the day- POEM.
inspired by the poem "Valentine" by Carol Ann Duffy, the literature students of OG2 (actually only Amelia, Yvonne&I) wrote a poem, full of meaning for all you artsy people to interpret. remember, every word is a deliberate choice.
_

Not an onion or a banana,

I give you a chilli.
It's tender seeds of love encased within
fiery disguise.
It's fierce hue promises passion
It's sensual taste lingers on the tip of my tongue,
Ever soft, ever possessive.

It is a crescent on fire
That blazes amidst the dark velvet of night
A shining light
Guiding star.

Forgive my blatant honesty.

Not a watermelon or a papaya,

My love is measured not by sheer volume
But by burning intensity
Raging desire.

Nah!*
I give you not a single crimson chilli
But an entire prranntation**
For its pungent aroma will seep through your skin,
Your heart.
-Raolas Von Melia

*singlish for "take it"
**allusion to our Econs teacher

hello people(:

ok thank goodness for the wonderfully kind people in OG2 who helped me with some of the work. thanks gladys&nic! (:

right, woke up early cos of unpleasant reasons, then in the afternoon attended baby Zach's 1st birthday party at Aloha resorts. or whatever it's called. ok by the way, Zachary is so damn adorable!! he's the happiest 1-year-old i've ever seen. i would upload some photos, the only thing is that i don't know how. urghhh. i will find out how to soon.

anyway, came back&for the first time in my life i exercised on my own accord [cue to clap hands&cheer really loud]. it wasn't much, but i hope to push myself further. i'm still young, i should be fit.

so it's school again tomorrow, but i'm not dreading it. it's another day of interacting with the lovely people of SAJC OG2. (:

hello all. (:

new year, new blog. it's still quite plain, but whatever lah, it's functional.

anyway, let's get straight into it shall we? St. Andrews' Junior College rocks, especially OG2!! as nic pointed out, we're the only OG that ignores our current CG. we're a united, spontaneous&absolutely mad bunch of saints.

on the first day, everyone was still quite reserved, but after all the games, group activities&long days spent together, we clicked&bonded. those three days were really packed with fun&entertainment all the way into the night, building up out team spirit. plus all the extra activities like supper&frequent outings- we're seriously super cool. oh, &we helped Saverdo to win Best Identity on finale night! ah we rock lah OG2!!

oh¬ to mention our OGLs, steffi&yijie- they rock too! (: they led us well&are most definitely a part of the OG2 family. throughout the whole orientation, they constantly looked out for us, like a mini-mum&mini-dad. plus all the tips they gave us about the food in the school&advice about subject combinations&lots of other things. love you guys. (:

some of the OG2 girls.


OG2@ bowling alley

went bowling for the very first time in my entire life yesterday. i didnt suck too badly, but the guys really outshone the girls cos of all their strikes. but it was really fun to go on another outing with them again. (:
