Predicted Morning Announcement:
In the recently concluded national interschool songwriting competition, RI sent 2 teams of 4 and 5 respectively to participate. We met with strong opposition and it was a close fight. RI fought hard, but lost to stronger rivals TMS and RGS, clinching the 3rd and 4th placing respectively. The first team comprises of “blah…blah…” the second team comprises of “blah…blah…” the teams would like to present their trophies to the headmaster. Headmaster please. (clap) Thank you headmaster. The team would also like to donate a portion of their prize money to the school for their support in this competition. We would also like to thank all those who have supported us in one way or another and those who made the effort to come down and cheer for us. Thank you. We wish all everyone all the best in their upcoming competitions.

Waa… finally got time 2 blog le… was chao buzy the last few days la… rushing out the maths pt… haiz, juz realized tt bea cho isint tt bad la… at least she was willing 2 give us ext 2 fri :D sries 4 my previous comments k? but I still think she shld teach slower…=P really. Cuz lk my maths isint gd, n if lk half the class can follow, y b the fella to hold up lessons? Haiz… difficult la…
Many things happened this wk la… wif vic getting pissed wif me… cuz we lk screwed up RE presentation? But it’s not entirely my fault la! For the last 15 mins u were wif the 2 scholars n u couldn’t cut their slide speeches, den when I come u ask me help them cut to make into time, I cut Sam’s by lk half a page, HY’s by lk 2 paras? Den u say not enuf, I cannot find anth 2 cut, I let them pass 2 u wad… I know they may not agree sometimes, but y do they hav 2 agree wif me when im not the leader even though ms grace assumes me to? haiz… when u cannot cut theirs at all for 15 mins I hlp u cut… den still my fault for not finishing the cutting ar? Anw, I timed n spoke 4 onli 3 mins I think, not 4. serious. Cuz at home timed 6 times and had 2 mins only… wun extend 2 4 mins de… sigh…RE presentation is graded at a group level. Time management is at a grp level. So if u want to blame, blame sam hu tok 4 lk 5 mins? I really hate his attitude towards cooperation, but he’s a gd worker la. If u want to check, go look at the rubrics. Individual is only graded on the way u speak I regret not cutting Sam’s speech la… shouldn’t have trusted him so much and believed that he really could do within 3 mins. I think u also believed him rite? Well, lesson learnt, NEVER do a project with an irresponsible scholar, as they do not bother about grades. I know good ones like Liu Yu and Chu Yang do la… =D nice ppls la… ya, I had some part to play for not stopping Sam, but not all my fault rite? wad’s done is done. nxt yr RE, do better, tt’s all.
Realized the geog teacher isin’t tt bad la… she in fact gave me ext till nxt term wk 1 for my pt? quite understanding la… yay! U rock! =D somemore ask me how we did for the comp, I said onli 3rd, den she say congrats! Lol? Hahax. Not tt bad after all… 2 give her face I shall juz try to accommodate that fishing idiot beside me in geog class, dun make things difficult la…
RIGE concert RAGE was yesterday! Wow… lk so cool? But our SAJC finals was much more pro. Agreed? =P but we played well la… can say I learnt Wave in like 2 nights? Wth la… mugging the whole score lk siao… but it was quite ok la… at least got shing and huizee went n lk dunno wad they say to the RG ppls during the intermission until lk the whole bench shouted “douglas we love u” during the last perf? Hahax…thx 4 supporting me! Though I really wanna know wad u said to them and y u intro those 3 RG ppls 2 me… n y they seem to know me when I dun even know them… this is scary. I was thinking that kel and chloe might be a little psychic… den they scare me. Now I’m seriously thinking that the world is going psychic. Either that or I’m too blur. Plz, shing that was not funny. Really. U better tell me wad’s goin on kaes… no joke.

Was quite tired the past few days, cos hav 2 stay back till like 940 plus… damn tired, sleepy n a little off focus. Haiz… competition is tdy… im blogging at the surfpool in sch, =P hope our effort pays off! We will do our best, we exist as a team. Fight as a team. Die as a team. The prize money isin’t the stuff that matters. The most important is that we claim the champs. Maybe we can use the prize money to fund our band? Lol… dunno la… im feeling very nervous now… will go sofa slack a little… still got oral presentation on Mon… ERP on wk 10, Maths pt on mon… haiz… sianx… poor me… =( Ppls, we will do our best 2nite, and not walk off the stage with any regrets. Cos we did our best and put up a good show. And that’s what matters.

Finally had time to blog a little, cos I was damn busy. And I mean it. Piled with so much work, can die le… wth la… we had phy test, bio assignment, 6 chi assessments, and 1 maths TA within the same week. Dun die also wun live de… so me = ½ dead now… haiz… nxt wk is DMP… tht tt I could relax abit… den the goeg teacher come up wif some stupid pt wif like 50% of the CA? WTH! Shit her la… wad’s her prob? Hand up wk 10 den y not hand in nxt term? At least got the hols to chiong rite? like wad stuart said, “kanasai” man… stupid relief dun know how to teach… whole day teach the same things, water problems, pollution, den dun give notes, juz click click ppt, den lesson over le… wt him sure u teach liddat la… im damn pissed wif her not onli bcos of that but cos she made me sit wif zhang kai, somehow thought that I would be the perfect seal for his mouth, cows he tok too much crap le… But hey? Liddat how 2 listen in class? tok so much, irritate me, if not for me running again this yr I would hav given him a direct blow. Pissed me off like shit. Anw, he got his punishment cos some dunno hu went to tear up his papers and left the class early in the day. I shall not pursue the matter further. I learnt my lesson in sec 1… vic was rite… dun pursue matters even though u know u r rite… cos it doesn’t help u in any way… if I hadn’t chased the geog issue for 1.5 yrs, maybe I would have been a prefect, like YH and LJH… smart ppl dun make themselves obvious when they make a mistake…
Ok… the better things… went SAJC for the briefing on the Chinese Songwriting Competition Finals… yes, we got in… 4 grps in total… saw Huang Zhiyang… walao… tough opponent leh… lucky he’s in J1, will be judged differently… =) after briefin, den go zou zou to see how the concert hall would be like… guess hu I saw? Lol… WT! my ex-chem teacher… den jon gan n qw were also there… so tok 4 awhile… den realized tt she was the choir teacher I/C for SAJC… lol… choir… havin the concert l8er in the evening… no money le… if free I go… :P the bits and pieces we heard were quite nice la… can say they got standard… not bad… hmm… can try getting a free tix nxt yr… :P
Jon gan’s grp actually coped song lor… not original… all the chords for elect guit from simple plan de… dun ask me wad song it is, cos I dun feel like saboing them la… judges make the decision, not me… even though I know tt its wrong… (that reminds me tt in sec 1 I “heck cared” the guy beside me hu was cheatin and in the end got myself into trouble) lol… I can say I know nth, n I dun think all RI teams will be kicked out bcos one of them cheated. So we = safe. Me = never sabo ppl b4 = dun feel like breaking the routine… =P
Maths CCT onli juz passed by a little… wth…as of today, final solution 4 careless mistakes, every mistake = down 10, liddat I dun feel so bad for making those mistakes… maybe my brain will be trained this way to spot all careless mistakes. Gotta do it the hard way, there has to be a stop somewhere. And this is it. No careless mistakes = not letting myself down = get better grades = so you have to be stricter with yourself in order to achieve greater goals.
Muz thank kel for helping me retype out my 2k word acad ppr, saved me frm alba’s clutches… =D Thanks! Really muz thank you, cos I dun think any other of my frenz would care to skip their CCA and stay till 5pm to help me type my essay, especially when they get nothing out of it, vic wun, WX wun, JL wun, issac wun… besides u I dun think anyone would… Thanks, I owe you one there. =D Will buy u sth on 16 Jan… u want I can hlp u pay $3 for the RIGE ticket… =P

If you happen to see a pen that fits the criteria, pls pass it to me, cos I think tt sb borrowed frm me n haven’t returned… im seriously not gonna lend stationery to ppl le… damn pissed, wad so gd abt my stationary tt ppl all borrow frm me, borrow frm other ppl la… ppl like cheng xiang… seriously got prob…
