Hoorah! Common Tests Over! Saturday, February 28, 2009
Hey people!
Only came back about an hour ago from ELDDS, TEDS, Service and Cell-Group Meeting.
Well, today during ELDDS, we had to film a run of our SYF play so that Yan (Our Director),
can show it to other schools Yan is working with.
And, well, I wasn't doing all that well in that run. Just yesterday, we cut out some lines and added some lines. And I hadn't memorised the new lines yet. That was a problem for me. Another thing is new expressions and actions. Haven't mastered them yet, but still had to be filmed doing all those stuff I'm not used to doing it.
And because we were filming it, we had to wear our costumes and stuff. I had to wear a long-sleeve collar shirt, TUCKED IN, long pants and the worse of all, SUSPENDERS!
Ahh..My first SYF and I have to look stupid. Aww well, its for the play.
Wow, today's TEDS training was hot, hot, hot!
The sun was shining our faces so intensely.
And I got a really bad sun burn.
Wonder If I'll get Skin Cancer if this continues.
Went for Service, and Pastor Kong continued part 3 of the series, "His Needs, Her Needs".
It was HILARIOUS!
Especially the parts with the Drama John and Mary.
After that, went to this guy called Jordan's house for cell-group meeting.
He's a very kind guy.
Didn't know most of us yet he still offered his house.
So after that, took MRT to Bukit Batok and walked home.
Today was a long and tiring day, left home at 8am and reached home at 9pm.
Had to even rush in between all the activities.
And its so sad, I always can't join the TEDS people for Mac after training cause I've got to rush down for service.
My weekends are always so packed!
So now, after the common tests, I feel a little bit less stressed.
I have more time now, cause I don't have to spend AS much as before the common tests studying.
But there's still more to come, so the pressure's still there.
And 'O' Levels!
Seems far away, but its really actually really near to us.
Getting closer,
and closer.
Wow, really tired now.
Tomorrow I'll have a few hours of time at home so I can do my homework then.
Thank God I still have sufficient time to rest.
Its just too bad I don't really have much time to play video games now.
But I've gotten over it, so it doesn't really matter anymore :)
Do you notice I always write a lot in a post.
And its more of like a compo instead of other blogs.
Where its so casual and full of random stuff.
And with this,
I bid you farewell.
Thanks so much for reading this post!
G'night! :D
I blasts myself at 10:25 PM :)

Oi people!
Tell you what people. The Director/Boss of Les Thespians which operates and is in charge of TEDS, G is a cool guy. He can like read your personality without even needing to know you.
Okay, so on last week's TEDS training, in one part G told us to take a walk around where we were(West Coast Park), to think about ,"What holds you together?"
Sounds deep. Didn't really knew what it meant.
I just assumed it was a necessity in my life.
We pondered over it for over 10 minutes, and after that we shared we had realised.
Everyone there had a chance to tell about the thing that holds them together, and then G would unravel the mysteries of their personality.
Nasri said that the thing that holds him together was his Status. He said he was made fun of his height when he was in Primary School, so he often tries to prove that he's capable of doing whatever things to people.
So G said that Nasri is a really objective guy. He knows what he has to get done and he can make a good Director one day. He can be heartless when he wants to and he's afraid of losing his Status, every thing he has build up till now when he leaves for Saudi Arabia where his Status won't be known.
Well my turn now. I said that the thing that holds me together are my companions/friends. I can live on with just a few close people. I don't like being lonely. And yeah, I want people who can accept me for who I am.
So G asked everyone, what do you think of Jason? Of course people said nice stuff about me and stuff about my singing. And then G said that those are what you all think he is, but do you really think he really is all that inside. Then he asked me what kind of person am I. I said,"Actually I don't really know who I am or what kind of person I am." Then he said," That's the problem."
Seriously, I'm telling you he's so amazing. Everything he said about me was kinda true. And even Nasri agreed on what G said about him.
And when TEDS training finally ended, he said,"I advise all of you all to run to Mac now as the rain is coming in 30 seconds." We looked around, puzzled. Just so you know, we were at the jetty area. And what we noticed was really mouth-opening. We could see the rain literally coming after us! The rain created a shadows of a cloud with all the rain on the ocean, and it emphasized the rain even more! Its like we could see the rain moving towards us! And believe me it was cool.
Fellow TEDS people went to Mac to just slack and I had to go church so I was on my way to the bus stop.
What's sad was that the rain caught up and it was pouring.
The bus stop was 700m away, and what's worse was that there was no shelter at all.
Hugging my bag tightly, I sprinted to the bus stop.
The rain was so bad that after every few steps I had to wipe the water from my face and since I was breathing from my mouth, cause I was running, I had to spit out all that water every few steps as well.
Reaching the bus stop, I was soaking wet. My bag was, everything in my pockets were wet and it seemed like I had showered with my clothes on.
The outer side of my Bag was super wet, but fortunately the inside was only moist.
My Poor Bible! Now it looks all crumpled cause of the water. But luckily my phone didn't get wet :D
Wow I've already wrote a lot. Shall I continue? Yes I shall!
Okay so Chloe advised me to appeal right away. The thing is, I realised that there is a really low chance that my appeal will be successful.
I heard from Basyar that Riyaas wanted to change from D&T to CS.
And just because of that it had to go through MOE and a lot of stuff.
And I'm talking about changing my class!With new subjects and everything.
Really unconfident in this..
But! I shall continue to pray fervently and whatever I ask, I shall receive!
So, Maths Common Test.
I can't say that it was really easy, but I can't say it was tough either.
It was a lot more easy than what I expected.
I guess all that effort diligently doing my homework and studying paid off.
Still, I'm not that confident I'll be able to get an A.
B for sure, but higher? I dunno...
Anyway, two days later is the SS CT!
Won't be able to study tomorrow since I'll be watching a movie tomorrow night,
So I better do it now.
See you guys next time!
And any suggestions or advise to approach Mrs Tan about appealing would be appreciated ^_^
I blasts myself at 8:47 PM :)
I just found out that I'm not really observant Friday, February 20, 2009
Heya Peeps!
Today, I'd like to talk to you about..argh forget it. What should I talk about?Oh! I know!
People, I've just finished eating my dinner.
Why at such a late hour you ask?
Why, because I have attend singing lessons at LeeWeiSong School of Music from 7:30pm to 9:00pm every Friday. And its at Somerset, so I usually reach home at about 10 pm.
Awesome right?WRONG! XD
Sigh I shouldn't have signed up for the Friday one!
Now I can't attend every EMERGE in my church at all!
You see, EMERGE is a service.
But unlike any other service, its a YOUTH service. Which makes it even more coolio.
And I have to miss all of the EMERGE from this year! Sucks!
EMERGE is held at CHC in every 2 months. Argh, gonna miss out on so much good stuffz!
And there's supposed to even be a Drama show at the EMERGE today.
Noo~ I hate missing out on cool stuff like these!
But life's like that lol
So let's just try to get used to it. :D
Oh ya and my Dad supposedly went to China for some Business Trip yesterday morning.
And I only knew about it just now :D
No wonder he wasn't at home this morning lol!
I hope its really a Business Trip and not going there to go elope off with another women.
JUST JOKING!
Hope nothing like that happens in real life.
I will be
very. very, very, SAD.
Anyway, tomorrow there's ELDDS, NYDS, and SERVICE! Woots!
Monday will be the day when we all have to sit for the E Maths paper!
Argh! Stressssssss~
I only have time on Sunday to practice my maths ToT
Come'on people! Let's work hard in studying and try to enjoy this painful torture until we finally graduate from Bukit View after the 'O' Levels!
You know like yesterday I was feelin' sad, cause I was brooding over something.
As you all should know, I regret over coming to my POA class.
Regret not studying enough last year, and most of all regret not even doing a simple thing such as appealing!
You see, from what I heard, there's this girl who was supposed to come to my class, but appealed for Triple and got in Double!
And a guy called Nicholas, he was supposed to come to my class as well, but he appealed for the A Maths class, and got in Double!
NOO~
Regret so much.
Sometimes I really wished I have the power to back in time.
I really do.
But I know there's no such thing like that in reality.
So the only thing we can do is not to look backwards, but to look forward.
And I should be telling myself this.
We are living in the present and to the future.
So I shouldn't talk about the past.
So I should talk about my FUTURE!
Believe it or not guys, I'm commiting myself in my studies so that, maybe, there's this small chance, that maybe, if I do well enough in all my subjects in the EOY, I might be able to appeal to a Double class!
I know what some of you guys may be thinking,"Does this guy really think he can do it?","That's not an easy thing to do." or even maybe "And even if you get in, you're gonna have a hard time coping as you have to study 2 years worth of A Maths in just one year."
Well, I've thought about all that. I should be working hard in whatever I think its worth while for me to do. So I'm aiming towards that goal. I KNOW it WILL be tough coping with all these, but like they say,"When there's a WILL, there's a WAY."
So I'm going to work towards that goal and the only thing that can stop me is myself.
Hope you guys can support me as well, cause encouragement can only do good, right? :D
Anyway, that's all I'm going to write for today.
And like I've mentioned earlier, tomorrow will be jam packed with activities and I have to wake up by 7pm tomorrow.
So I better turn it, and a good night's rest to prepare myself for tomorrow.
Until my next post,
Seeya then my beloved Blog readers!
I blasts myself at 11:01 PM :)

Wassup people! Hohoho I just discovered the wonders of Photoshop!
As I'm the Director of ICT and Publicity for Tripod '09, I was supposed to come up with a draft of a poster.
By tomorrow.
So right since I reached home I've been working my butt off doing that poster.
Its not all that nice and I took quite a long time to finish but considering it being my first effort,
I think its pretty good. :D
Oh ya, My MT Spelling results rose from 15/40 to 28/40 !
Not bad right?
And for my MT Class Test I got 33/50 which was 68.8%!
One more mark and I could've scored an A for MT!
And remember, we're talking about me, the guy who always just barely passes his MT!
I was happy about my results :D
Got full marks for a Math Pop Quiz, wasn't all that hard, so not much big of a deal.
What I'm concerned about is my Maths Class Test 2.
Mr Lam said that the class did badly for it. Hmmm...
And... for the Physics Class Test.
Sigh, not good, scored a 9/20
But, I'll make good use of the spare time I have at home to study up for Thursday's Physics and Chemistry Common Test!
Really need to buck up if I want to be top 5 in class.
And F&N! I scored a 24/25 for the first test. Was I the first in class? Maybe.
But for the latest test/ 2nd test, I scored a 20/25 while the highest in my class scored 21/25
So close... T_T
Anyway, argh! common tests!
One good thing about is that I can use it as an opportunity to prove to my parents that I can balance both work and play and properly manage my time.
But what's bad is that if I fail to do good, my parents will do something about it.
I don't what, but I no I won't like it.
Anyway, I'm currently making a point for me to increase my English Vocabulary,
So everyday if I have the time, I will go to www.dictionary.com
To check out the Word of The Day
Memorise it,
And try to apply it in real life. Or even when I'm blogging.
I advise you to do so as well, cause you don't really have to put in much effort.
And you'll learn new stuff everyday.
Chloe's pro enough she doesn't have to do that. :P
I don't know why, but I feel kinda tired these few days.
Better turn in early.
Its already 11:10 pm so its not that early anymore.
Anyhow, goodnight and sweet dreams!
I blasts myself at 10:49 PM :)
I'm now officailly part of NYDS/TEDS! Saturday, February 14, 2009
Okay people, once again I'm going to write some stuff about my day.
But first of all, Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
A day when singles hook up, couples make out or breakup or do some romantic stuff together.
So today i went to West Coast Park! For what you say? It was the very first NYDS/TEDS training for me! And it was loads of fun!
For those of you who do not now, NYDS = National Youth Drama Squad / TEDS = Thespians Enterprise Drama Squad
Nasri was late so just by myself I met up some people that I didn't know then at Clementi. NYDS peeps. We waited for a while longer for more members to arrive and we were off to West Coast Park!
I got to know a few people there, made friends and yeah.
First off we did some warm-ups, normal stretching and stuff.
But when I had thought it was over there were more exercises we had to do.
We did so many exercises and I could feel the burn all over my body especially in my thighs.
Believe me the exercises were like 30 times more painful than the normal streches we do in school.
After that we did some Wushu. Cool Right?
Learn a few stunts and positions and ways to counter an attack and stuff.
IT WAS SO EDUCATIONAL!
And after that, we had to the obstacle course challenge and it was fun.
We had to run about 400 m of distance too.
Moving on, we did some rhythm? exercises. Using Balls. Basket balls.
We were supposed to pass around the balls with a particualr rhythm.
And we would create the rhythm by slapping the ball or just bounce our bodies.
And then eventually Nasri came.
We went below a shelter and we were taugh JAPANESE by one of our squad members.
Girl called Anna. Japanese I think.
I learned a little bit of basic Japanese so people were a little curious as why I could read out Hiragana :)
After that we were taught to do a lyrical dance.
It was cool, except there were other people in the Squad who could do it so much better than me and Nas.
Finally we were split into 4 groups, T, E, D, and S.
I'm in group S! And no its not cause I'm an ass.
We were told to come up with a name for each of our groups and come up with a cheer!
This was what my fellow comrades came up with -
T - Twilight ( Which Nas is in)
E - Eclipse (Apparently there are a lot of Twilight freaks in the Squad)
D - Drameos ( Drama + Romeo ?)
S - Saints (NOT!)
After each of our groups performed the cheer, we were dismissed!
And after I went for church! Was terribly late!
But got in right on time when before the Sermon was about to start! Woohoo!
Went home after that, went out for dinner with parents, and now I'm here.
Okay, common tests are coming up. ( Sucks right? )
I'm currently pondering over something...
JC.....or....Poly?
I blasts myself at 9:48 PM :)
I really can't think up of a title everytime I post Tuesday, February 10, 2009
Hey!Ho!Let's Go!
Hey people! Glad that you guys are reading my blog now :D
So I got 79/100 out of my English Grammar Test.
When I got my paper back I was like, "So low?!"
Damn, and my classmates scolded me for saying that 79 was low.
Uhh, thought I could do better.
I never knew subject verb agreement was to either have plural or singular answers, and only after we received the paper did Mr Tan informed about this.
THANKS A LOT MR TAN!
Or should I say Mr Baldy.
Anyway, the guy that got 1st actually scored 87/100.
His name was Thaddeus. At least I think its spelled that way.
I respect that guy for his English man. But if we're talking about English, I respect Chloe the most.
Argh! I wanted to get first!
Ah well, at least I learnt something from this test.
Learnt that SVA accepts either singular or plural answers.
Didn't do too well for my Maths Class Test, but I got full marks for the recent Pop Quiz. Hoorah! :D
And I got 21/25 for Geography. Pretty good I think. Basyar supposedly got 22/25 and apparently he's the highest in his class. My class is better :D Xiu Qi got 22/25 too.
ALright..I shall stop talking about tests and stuff.
Now let's talk about my day!
Let's see. School-boring, boring, educational, but boring.
After that, its ELDDS! For all you people that don't know, it rocks.
And Mdm Maziyan is actually angry at us ELDDS peeps (Drama and Media Crew) for not taking care of the art room. When she went in the art room yesterday, she doun food wrappers and all sorts of things around lying on the floor. And she assumed that we did it. But we DID NOT.
When we checked out of the Art room last friday we left it neat clean with no trash scattered around the floor.
Sigh, don't really know what happened. Maybe the Art Room is haunted and the "Hungry Ghosts" came to eat some oreo.
And from what I heard, she slammed the Art Room door in front of Nasri's face, and ignored Basyar. And we're even banned to enter the Art Room. Guess like someone's giving us the silent treatment. Well, can't blame her for that. The Art Room isn't really our CCA room, we're just lucky that we got Mdm Maz as our CCA-in charge and she allowed us to use the Art Room for drama training.
Then me and my drama peeps like B-man, Potatoe and Nasi Lemak went to Mac to just slack and makan some light stuff.
And our way there we met Little Will a.k.a XiaoHui at the MRT station she she just tagged along for our slacking session.
And then I went home. Walked from west mall to my house. Took about 17 minutes. Was damn tiring, had to carry lots of books and a file by hand and stuff lots of other books in my bag. But I guess I should be used to it by now.
And after I showered, ate. Now I'm here. And I'm supposed to wash the dishes ToT
And Social Studies is actually interesting. Not the subject, but the teacher. Mr Tan a.k.a Bulldog was really entertaining. He has like mood swings or something. And even though class was interesting, I was busy composing a song for my band. Came up with only 10 lines of it. God give me more inspiration! :O
I guess that's about it. Have to go wash the dishes and after that, study for tomorrow's Maths Test. So till next time, buhbye!
