2008Infocomm Sec4 Farewell

i had stuff on in the morning and joined them only around 3plus.
the moment i step back into stnicks it me an unmistaken sense of HOME. =) i really miss the stnicks environment truck loads.

first stop: Uncle Mobeen's drink stall for my beloved TEH TARIK! pity orange bowl wasnt open. no matters.. there's always another time yeah!

the moment i reached the field i was dragged (very unwillingly i must add) into a lifesized version of foosball. but i sacrificed and played for my PUBS!
haha.. it was fun with lots of screaming! so typical of girls schools. haha..
but i was abit lousy as goalkeeper.....and stuff. naiy and den played for Programming too but they were not much better than me either. i finally understand what jocelyn meant by lao le. there was Old EXCO vs New EXCO and guess who won? Old EXCO of course! Yay! we still got shi li. =)

prove that naiy stole my teh tarik while i was busy with the game. *points to her hand*

foosball! PUBS vs Multimedia

there was a minesweeper-ish game after that. but the 3 of us were quite tired so we sat out and ~~gossiped~~ chatted! the nice juniors donated awesome biscults to us too!

i didnt know that denise ong took so many candid photos! haha. more pictures below..

Slacking at the MPR while waiting for the BBQ to start:

jumpshots were failure as usual. haha!

zi lian naiy

product of naiy's zi lian-ness.

left the MPR for Roof Garden to paitently wait for BBQ!

the PRETTY Roof Garden! =)
i used to walk past the roof garden on almost daily basis. i miss the place loads! and the awesome view of the even-more-PRETTY clouds and sky!

while waiting for the juniors to start fire, we decided to do what we do best:
Self-timer camwhore! =D

Naiy had to leave before she even tasted the beehoon! =/ me and den made the juniors test the beehoon first before we ate just in case of the possibility that we might not survive the ordeal. haha!
before she left, we made a stop at one of the many many many mirrors around the school!

view of the sunset from the roof garden! :

BBQ started! and the food were served. =D

yuling!

my First satay!
its either cheryl or kahyan who got it for me.. hee!

being the nice person i am, i bbq-ed me and den's MarshMellows before we went to walk walk and we did a bit of evening jog around the track! the weekly Morning Jogs suddenly dont seem that sian as it once did..
of course, we came back for more food! =D

check out my awesome cup!

it reads "denise loves me! :)"
DUH. haha!

we tried our best to interact with the new sec ones, but mission failed. they looked so scary lah! o.o haha.. actually i think we are even more scarier to them. just imagine 2 weird and unfamiliar 17 year olds plopping down on the either you and starts talking.. but hey we gave our best. they were looking rather sian-ed..
we left around 7:45pm.

oh! charmaine and shuling came as well!
it was quite sad that deb and chris couldnt make it.. looking forward to our next meeting! =)

the rest of the photos are still with the juniors.
hope they can send us soon!

Saturday 29NOV2008

reached ulu pandan cc around 10:50am. then went to help pack thousand plus goodie bags for the Youth Community Day event on Sunday the next day. serena, xiwen and yiren were there already but luxi was even later than me. haha..

we were inside the huge bomb shelter (which was called CD Shelter for some reason) and there was zero reception there. haha.. it was quite cool.

the many boxes of stuff thrown randomly around

all the stuff thats suppose to go into the goodie bags!
goodie bag, emergency booklet, STOP notebook, post-it, newater, some booklet, water bottle, 2 packets of the new Milo Mocha, fan, highlighter
the highlighter they gave was the one that stnicks gave to us last year! haha.. the flower one which many people dismantled.

luxi!

WOAH. look at the millions of goodie bags!

haha.. no lah.
that was just the mirror reflection. it actually like that:

but thats around 750 goodie bags already.

MILO&luxi&me!

serena!

haha.. it was very tiring to pack but it was really fun non-the-less as we were all being very lame and joking around! =)
Mr Sek and Candice came to help us too!

i suffered two papercuts from opening the lousy quality paper bags. =/

shall blog about today's "GREAT Trivia Challenge: Olympiad Edition" another day when i get the photos from mr. sek. =)

Avalanche
David Cook

I feel alive beside you
And all at once
I am whole again.
We fall into each other
Your atmosphere
Is all I´m breathing in
And in this rush
We are crushed

Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause' I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight,
All that we have been
Was it nothin' more
Than a noise inside my head
Crashing down, crashing down,
In your avalanche.
In your avalanche.

These scars we wear remind us
The more we change
The more we're all the same
Swept up in this emotion
We fumble through
and make the same mistakes
Cause' we are led
To the edge

Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothin' more
Than a noise inside my head

Crashing down, crashing down,
In your avalanche
Crashing down, crashing down,

I feel alive beside you
Than all at once I am
whole again...

the rain will eventually stop, and the sun will shine bright once again.

Its just one of those days that everything seems to get to you and nothing seems to go right and the world is mocking you with all its might. Headaches always makes me unhappy, but there's no denying that i was happy at certain points during the day though.

If only you were here to just make everything just go away.
I Miss You.

met up with ping my evil evil twin today to go Orchard shop shop! =)
before that i went to KAP to return the 2nd disc of "the bucket list" to the rental shop because a certain blur blur sotong left the disc in his comp after we watched and forgot to return it to the rental shop together with the rest of "the bucket list". and because of this certain blur blur sotong, i had to go through something quite unpleasant and totally weird. *shivers* haha.. but ping says the way i handled it was damn cool! haha.. like duh.

we saw some people along orchard road holding signs and giving out free hugs.. haha. quite weird to be giving out free hugs there but ohwells its quite cool.
*hugs evil twin*
the evil twin is influencing the awesome one to become evil like her. but its okay.. the awesome will still be awesome even if she became evil because she's just awesome like that. Awesome yeah..!

GUNSLINGER
by Avenged Sevenfold

Yeah, you've been alone
I've been gone for far too long
But with all that we've been through
After all this time I'm coming home to you

Never let it show
The pain I've grown to know
’Cause with all these things we do
It don't matter when I'm coming home to you

I reach towards the sky I've said my goodbyes
My heart's always with you now
I won't question why so many have died
My prayers have made it through yeah
’Cause with all these things we do
It don't matter when I'm coming home to you

Letters keep me warm
Helped me through the storm
But with all that we've been through
After all this time I'm coming home to you

I've always been true
I've waited so long just to come hold you
I'm making it through
It's been far too long, we've proven our
love over time’s so strong, in all that we do
The stars in the night, they lend me their light
to bring me closer to heaven with you <3
(Bring me closer)

And with all that we've been through
After all this time I'm coming home to you

Happiness is when the simplest things that you do puts a smile on my face. This smile lingers on for a long time, even after my cheeks ache from the stupid grin plastered there.. <3
Feeling especially happy, when its 4 in the afternoon.

Whispers,"Hello, I miss you quite terribly." Day 4, and counting...

DUE TO POPULAR DEMAND, this blog has generated a new (and really long) post! (WOW)

i cant rmb very well in detail of everything that took place over the long span of time i haven been updating.. (whoops!)
heehee.

SA3 class photos!
they printed in black and white one a piece of paper for us to see and order. i happen to have my camera with me that day so i took pictures of the paper. haha.. the black and white-ness and lousy quality due to the small size printing makes us look like some class from the 80's. hahaha..

the formal, serious shot.

the informal, lame, retarded, ~~show-off, act cute~~ shots!

the photos are very nicely taken! =) almost everyone ordered all the 3 types. i wonder when we'll get them..
