Nothing special these few days and also i was doing a new blog design so there isn't much new post. Anyway school has been going crazy, i dont think i can finish my maths revision there's simply too much-.-. However other than the crazy school life, i did have some interesting things happening in school. The international friendship celebration held in the school to "promote" better understanding among the different countries AND races turned out to be a joke as it not only failed to make us understand more but it did include a mass amount of racisim and jackness inside it. The chinese taichi is quite boring but i thought at least it isn't as embarrasing as the others..... ok maybe not. The indian and vietnamnese stuff which was incredibly anticipated by their fellow peers turned out to be boring as hell. The vietnamese had an orgy to sing a song that was famous(not popular) in the 1960s. What the hell? How did they even managed to get the song? The indian one was boring as well, dancing stupid steps but it did provide some amusement when they shook their butts in the airs of modern indian music at the last part. We were all like OMG what "fine" MODERN music was that? It is like 80s disco retro plus indian accent haha what a joke. Ok im not racist its just that its really funny even my fellow indian friends were laughing =.-. I think Mr. C did enjoy it though :P Then while i was laughing and joking all the while throughout the performances, a teacher taped me on my shoulder. The first thing which came across my mind was " shit i got in to trouble AGAIN" Then he told me to lean over, which i did, and pointed at two students in front of me. "Help me confiscate their handphones for me" LOL WTH? I was ku-xiao-bu-de, how u expect me to confiscate other students phone, and they are like 5 m in front of me? However due to the sense of reponsibility in me :P i went down and DA QIANG! The boy was shocked and looked at me fearfully, am i that scary i remember i was even smilling, then i pointed at the teacher. Lol he gave it to me frightfully and without a word. Crap i did feel a little bad. Then after a while, when the ending of the ceremony came, lim bei long came singing mj's we are the world. G mat told people at the back to start the wave. Then 5mins later came mr drew who scolded us for doing that. -.- And Senghan got himself into trouble again by saying, "sir i hear what you say". Mr Drew gave an outburst and senghan got jacked. lol thts school, anyway give some comments on design pls, i think its a bit screwd up though. And oh ya after kept tio jacked by teachers about my re onli finished in december last year, came this letter:

Twilight Zone,

I frankly think you did a great job with your 2006 RE SL project. You should know that I don’t mince my words. In my opinion, you had exceeded our expectations, and should be proud of it.

In spite of many challenges, I think your project stands the highest chance for being short listed among my RE SL groups 2006. This is simply due to the relatively thorough materials and preparation done, after MANY LONG hours. We must also remember how your external mentors Ms. Joely and Ms. Fion had contributed tremendously with their guidance, experience and kind understanding.

Even if you are not confident of getting through to the final selection, I just want to affirm you that you have made the mark. As you have undeniably made an impression upon the youth of TFSC, grant yourselves the opportunity of being recognized at another level.

Should you decide against my nomination, or fail to make it through, be assured you had done us proud. I hope each of you will keep the Service Learning candle burning in you.

Best,

Ms.Alicia Goh
