ever since i left dunman high i've never experienced one single moment of crazy celebration. no more singing together as a whole, no more running around for interclass treasure hunts, no more cheering and screaming at the tip of my voice, no more lying on the grass looking at the stars during eds camps. and yesterday i took the lift with 3 teachers and they were saying how successful this year's celebration is cos everyone gets to gather together in the canteen and that's a fabulous idea and they've never seen similar things in the past years before. i almost wanted to roll my eyes and go 'HOHUM'. apparently they've never experienced warm atmospheres like that you find in dhs. but i still like rj, cos it's my school.
anyway in between we went to watch the mini concert in the amphi. missed the jazz dance, which is quite a pity, but managed to watch the street dancers' dance. they could have been better coordination-wise, but as a whole it was really impressive! and simin is a great dancer! watching them reminds me of all those performances i had last time and all those thick makeup and the hey-i-am-so-nervous before going on stage and blah blah. aha.
i think the best part of the celebration is having mr siva singing jian dan ai HAHA. he was playing the guitar and singing the song and his pronunciation was really good given the fact that he's an indian. yep, i was totally mesmerised lol. and jian dan ai is like one of the very first songs of jay that i came across. i got so excited i stood on the bence to sing along and sarah decided to just bring me to the front to watch instead lol. and when everyone clapped i chose to bang my pringles can against the table and that's how i ended up having the chips in a million tiny pieces lol.
after that i went to talk to mrs tan the physics hod regarding changing of my subject combi, and of course she was persuading me not to change cos it's really far too late. will be meeting her again on friday.
then i went to do chem week publicity stuff. it's an 8-people-work but apparently only me angie and yiwen bothered to stay back. daniel and yihui also stayed to help and that was really nice of them. junyang went to eat and play basketball with friends before turning up to help me for a pathetic 15 minutes. he and his 2 friends pasted a grand total of 12 posters before they left for class outing. HELLO! i could have gone out with my secondary school friends or had class outing with 3s but i chose to stay back and help ok?! me and angie almost killed him i tell you, if not for the fact that he fled at the speed of light heh.
anyway i went around the school pasting posters and i didn't bother counting exactly how many i pasted. i only know there were a total of 410 posters so when you see those yellow papers around in school when you come back on friday, please remember there's a 40% chance that one was pasted by me lol. and angie daniel and yihui were painting the banner, here's a sneak preview lol:
and it was only on my way home that i realised my limbs were really aching from all those pasting. and i was super tired, didn't know some pasting work could tire me out so much heh. fell asleep on the train and if not cos pasir ris is the terminal station i would have definitely overshot haha.
went esplanade at night with dad and mum to watch the fireworks! yay. super beautiful. it was as if all those sparks were coming in my face. whoever invented the fireworks is a great guy man haha.
and the fencers have got a blog! quite plain template though, i shall help to search for a nice blogskin when i can find the time haha.
9th national day since i came. happy birthday singapore (:
