EOYs, here we come...

Wow 2 mths well almost 3 since last post, so instead on recapping all the way back through the good, bad and ugly, just 2 main points; 1: I got in for YOG Presentation :D:D:D Yay! 2: My rts and CA2 results sucked. Ok now starting from yesterday, wow teacher's day eve already, ah how time flies its already 9 mths into the new yr and it so doesnt seem so.. Anyways, it was one of the best days i hv had in quite a while, firstly cos it was a half day, secondly cos i got to go back to VS and SSS to meet everyone :D. So after 10 30, avoiding the conventional method of taking a bus 2 stops down to VS, I ran; yes ran all the 800 metres there. It was thouroughly awesome la, as i ran so many familiar faces passed me, some going to pp to celebrate their half day too, others going off to their primary schools. Running, chatting, reminscing all those beautiful memories; I entered the school gate, after chatting to ams, pinu and bhagi for a while, I went in looking around for my teachers. Meeting Ms. Sharma at the foyer, I knew that the teachers were leaving alr so without further ado I ran to the staffroom and one by one had a nice though short catch up session with all my teachers.. Mr Robin, Ms. Raksha, Mr. Chia, Ms. Hashima and so many other teachers and friends wow it was a fun time. Then, onto SSS, again i decided to go by foot and climbed up that huge hill near siglap center to get there. When I arrived, more familiar faces started drifting in, wow we had all changed so much in the past 3 years that it was both amusing and surprising at the sight of each other. After waiting for Akhi for 1/2 n hr, we thn went to meet our teachers. SSS were still having their teacher's day celebrations when we gatecrashed but as if we cared. It was fun meeting up with everyone and it brought back nostalgic memories both of VS and SSS. Then, Me and Akhi went out for lunch and he came over after that till like 5 to cap off what had been a gr8 day :D. However, after he left, mugging resumed cos EOYs are up in less than 28 days Aahh!!!!!!!!!!! So now the main battle begins for these 28 days, it seems dam short to finish up all the revision. Ah who cares, its time to bid farewell to sleep at least for a month. Jiayou people.. :D; 28 days remain..

The hols so far...

Wat a first wk XD! Hahaha lets start off wit saturday; OVA SOCCER TOURNAMENT :D! Haha, omg wat a brilliant morning we had despite not winning a single game XD. Our brilliant ip1 team: Me, David, Keeran, Lim Xi, Gaofei, Ramesh, Isaiah. Hahaha it was a 6 - aside tournament so we had to use rolling subs. OMG we were seriously the underdogs la, the whole VS squad practically came down XD but our first match was against our awesome seniors :D. Haha we werent well warmed up and we lost the match 2 - 0, awww dam sad but still our first match only, arg i had one shot on goal saved by rohan XD. Then next match we played against the weakest of the VS teams, ramesh whacked the ball to me near the halfway line then i controlled and laid a through pass to keeran, wa lao he shot dam powerfully the moment he reached the pass and keeper saved but no use ball went in :D, yay 2 mins to go and we were leading! but then in the last minute we let in 2 goals, I was like WTS la, dam unlucky, the second goal was just b4 the final whistle and we lost again XD. 3rd match, we played against the strongest VS team, lolol they were challenging our seniors for top spot la. Then, they scored first, but with like 2 minutes to go, David through passed to me, then i took a shot outside the penalty area and SCORED :D! Omg was dam happy la, we ended up drawing tht match hahaha, at least we could proudly say we dint lose every match :D. Haha then last match we lost 2 - 1, David scored :D. But still dam crap ah our match record: 1 draw 3 losses XD. However for our standard i think we played awesomely, all the teams next yr better watch out, we are coming for u! Hahaha then after tht we all ended up at KFC at Siglap after erm David erm told us tht pizza hut still had students discount on weekends! Lol we were there for like 2 hrs la, after we had a 1 n 1/2 hr long gossiping/ bitching session btwn me, david, keeran, gaofei, ramesh n lim xi :D. Omg it was dam fun completely crapping for 1 n 1/2 hrs :D:D:D, nice start to the hols. The next day was total opp. completely boring XD. Haha thn came monday lol dam crap first weekday of hols n we hv a class =/ Lolol after tht we went for class outing/ eating, stoning and crappin session :D Hahaha we met vishnu at pp and he happily joined us for lunch, before he left for India tht night.

Anyways the good part was got to meet loads of new people and make new friends :D:D:D. Hahaha then came Sunday, dam sian, bored to death again XD, drank wine when some family frends came over, hahaha then became super high :D Then watched Roger Federer justify why he is indeed the world's greatest tennis player ever, he rocks to the core and he totally deserved the french open yesterday :D. Today: CLASS OUTING AT MARINA SQ. YAY! :D:D:D:D:D. I arrived at like 10 15 thinkin i was late(we were supposed to come at 10 am) lol only TJ, WX, RJ and joshua were there we waited till like 10 45 till finally the girls came la, lolol only 9 people in total XD. First we went bowling, lol the girls dint bowl again but decided to take pics of our lonkang shots. YAY, i won the first game :D but only score 86 leh. Then the girls got bored n decided to go look around while we finishd our second game. As we started our second game suddenly my luck vanishd la, dam crap i ended up gettin 53 u noe!!!!!!! then bran can still get 117 arg dam irritating. Haha thn we went arcade, played racing wit bran, retarded leh, in the last lap both times bran crashed into my car to get 1st la ah dam u bran!!!! Hahahaha then i beat TJ in soccer wohoo, TJ dam unlucky lolol i cleared the ball of my line twice leh! Then we went to hv lunch at a Japanese Restaurant, we had a barbeque and steamboat buffet, it was a very different experience for me. Thks WX and Bran for being so thoughtful and sensitive tday abt the food. We ate for 4 hrs at the restaurant, barbecueing chicken, fish, prawns, etc. dam fun but the butter kept splashin all over the place la! HAHAHA the best part was the ice cream buffet :D, Lol joshua u really missed tt XD. We got to cook our own ice cream XD dam fun :D:D WX is a pro ice cream chef! Hahahaha thn we mixed up wierd concotions and dared each other to eat them. Haha the most sickest one was when we poured all our unused toppings and ice cream + our other ice cream waste and dared each other to eat. Me, WX and RJ said cheers and popped tht 'thing' down our gullets, not feeling anythin at all :D. Then we walked and stoned all over Marina Sq for like 30 mins lookin at diff. shops b4 deciding to go home. So tts the hols so far for me, hvnt yet started studying and i plan to begin this ardous climb to the exams in term 4 tom :D wish me luck people, the journey of a thousand miles begins here... :D

The last 2 wks of term 2 :D:D:D

Wow the last 2 wks of term 2 hv been the total opposite of what the previous 8 weeks of term 2 were. In one word, frivolous. In the second - last wk of term 2, we were given our result slips. Woa for the first time in my life nuthin forward to look to in there. Hahaha, so instead, focus spins to FB finals which was on wed or 20th of may :D:D. Yay we get to leave sch early to go support our guys n girls team who r up against MJC in both their matches :D:D:D. Omg atmosphere was sooo tense, crowd support was so immense, me n nat screamed our voices out. However, the girls lost 3 -2 it was heart - wrenching having come so close XD. Hahaha me n caleb were hoping tht MJC get disqualified for fielding a guy in their team, 0.0 their keeper was a complete remake of Borat XD hahaha. Hahaha thn came a master class display of why we can now proudly say whenever we lose our practise matches in training to our jc seniors, tat we lost to national champions man! Awesome, top class, 6 goals, a penalty saved and a bet lost by joshua hahaha, dude u shld hv known i hv never lost a bet b4 :P. 6 - 4 to VJC champions of A div guys floorball wohoo!!!!! Then immediately after tht i had to rush right back to the other side of the island(the match was at chua chu kang) to tampines mall by 6 30pm XD. Retarded leh, the way i ran, the match only finishd at 5 pm and i even had to go home n change b4 goin to meet ams and pinu to watch angels n demons :D:D:D. Hahaha, so arriving at 6 .37pm cos the MRT train also broke down halfway, i was jus in time for the 6 40 show. Man now tats wat u call timing and class, i almost scared the living daylights out of ams n pinu when i arrived lolol, they looked soo mad :P srry guys for the heart attack! Anyways, gr8 movie, though Dan Brown's writing is second to none. Lovely plot, good capture of the tension and entertainment. Oh man, i soo wanted to stay to eat dinner wit ams n pinu but i had to leave early arg, ah nvm guys we'll meet up soon again :D. Thursday and Floorball trainin again :D yay! FB trainings hv been like totally awesome :D! Training went gr8, my team won every game we played and i scored 3 goals in 4 matches YAY! :D Hahaha thn came Akhi's B'day and PTM + LA proj at WX house on 23rd, the Sat. Haha the first half of the day pretty much sucked, thn when i called Akhi over at 3+ it was suddenly soo awesome. Man i hadnt seen him for one whole term and yes the Sat though not enough to catch up on everythin, was sooo awesome. Man i had missed him so much over the last term, when i had nearly crashed he helped cheer me up once, thks Akhi, ur seriously the awesomest friend i could ever have. So even though my fifa 09 was screwed, we played fifa 07 and chatted abt life for 2 hrs at least. He is the only person i can actually share my whole life with la, every single secret i keep to myself. Akhi jus tis one quote for u, -If this world was still filled with friends like u, nobody would ever feel cheated or backstabbed- ILY man :D. Nyways then came Monday, Soccer guys final :D:D:D, we reached there just on time after catching the bus a lil l8 due to a catch up lesson on bio. Even though less than 10 people frm our class went, sitting wit the only people u really like soccer in my class, Nat n TJ, made it an interesting match to sit n watch wit frends throughout. My heart was in my mouth for like most of the match and even as i type this now omg i m getting goosebumps. Hahaha, we scored first! 1 - 0, u shld hav seen our celebration lol. They had an african as their foreign talent however we had our own angmor too! Their centre - back is like awesome at set pieces, he took a long free kick and it was headed for the top corner, our goalie did get a hand to it though but he flumbled and it dropped into the goal :0. Nyways 1 - 1. Omg then, the african took an awesome freekick from just outside the penalty box and it dipped and swerved beautifully into the corner of our net, nerve - wracking for us, but a beautiful strike all in all. 2 - 1 down, half time approaching... and then our No. 10, ran frm the halfway line and blasted a shot from the edge of the penalty box into the far right corner of the goal, what a finish!!! Second half came and we missed plenty of sitters! chances came and went begging, a few of them literally missed on the goaline XD. But the last minute, was a fantastic time to score and that too wit a stupid header frm 3 feet out. Omg, 89 min, 3 - 2 to VJC, We went wild, me n nat were jumping up and down hi fiving, people were sobbing so hard, the scorer himself crying like anything. Awesome atmosphere, and within minutes of injury time, we were National Champions for both Girl's and Guy's A div. Shouts of FULL DAY ECHOED HARD ACROSS JALAN BESAR STADIUM. Any hint of there bein one on tues, omg we came prepared for assembly, one of the J1s even brought a banner along and Mr. Chan went up on stage and said immediately, get out you are dismissed. Freakin awesome aint it :D. We went out for erm class outing erm only seven people, Me, Bran, Tj, Rj, Wx, Joey and Jolene, to marina square. Hahaha first we ate at BK, Omg jolene eats so slow, she could literally take 1 hr jus to finish the meal XD, Rj tried to throw fries into the air and catch with his mouth and wow act. worked XD. Then bowling, arg joey n jolene just sit at one side thn take pics of us shooting into lonkang!!! Hahahaha yay i won both the games we played, brandon's special technique dint work hahaha, omg typing all tis makes me feel sooooo high now XD. Aft bowling we all went home, lol but at least it was a full day n there was Fb to look forward to the nxt day :D. Man i was on fire in fb training on wed hahaha, 4 goals in 4 matches and we won 3 of those games and were unbeaten, I think i m really improving well over the past term :D:D:D Hahaha aim high for B div next yr but must train hard as well :D. Lol sis, how was tat goal i scored against u hahaha :P, made u proud rite? Nyways tat ended Fb training for the term :(! Still there was cricket training the nxt day :D Omg, considering i batted in the nets for the first time in a mth, i tink i did ok, still loads of room for improvement, esc. if i wanna be vice cap next yr which i soooo wanna be :D:D:D. Finally came Friday, lst day of term 2, lst day of tortures, it has been a rough term, i m jus gonna work hard durin these remainin 26 days of the hols and shine in term 3 n 4, the bar has been raised for achievement, its time to raise myself for acheiving that acheivement :D

2 quotes i came up wit tis term :D : - Lost and Confused, I looked around, I found u and I found
my world ;)
- The past may be gone and the present may be slipping
through our fingers like sand, however if we have hope of a
better future, only our past can change it XD

Gaurav shall smile once again :D

YAY!!!!!! Torture Week is finally over :D:D:D:D:D X 10000. Hahahaha, lolol ok im seriously dam high now cos in the whole remainder of the term there is only 1 test left :D. Lol all the emoness and gloomy mood of the previous weeks seemed to lift instantly when Ms Sandhya said,' You Are Dismissed' at the end of LA test tday, it marked the end of a tortous, unending week of pain for me. Just for that instant i was on cloud nine despite just finishing an LA test which we are all bound to borderline pass only, its ok my dear 12, LA is shit afterall. Hahaha, jus phy test on wed and oh piles of HW remainin for the upcoming wk but i don give a ****in dam abt it tday! Today i decided to take a well deserved oath not to touch any school-based piece of paper for the whole day after i came back and do not intend to anytime soon either ;). The moment i came back, I changed, took my soccer ball and went down to play for 1 and 1/2 hrs, lol i hadnt played soccer for god noes how many wks and yay finally :D:D:D, felt really great playin and venting out all the frustration and bad thoughts inside of me on that rubber ball. Oops hope i dint commit ball abuse, if not the ball association will hold me responsible for torture on their member of society which were crimes against ball rights(Lol there's a huge rip across my ball from when i smashed a lampost tday, oops XD). Lol so from the previous sentence you can see how LA screws up your mind in soo many ways XD. Tonite is slacky, party, let loose night all the tension shall be released :D. No pressure watsoever just me and the positive thoughts of the world :). Gaurav shall indeed smile once again cos its definately not over...

twodays are a winding road its taken me to places that i dint want to go :(

The last 2 days hav been one of the worst i hv lived through, totally crashed, pummelled, depressed, no hope. All i can say is tht my week looks worse than wall street the week it crashed. :(, i don feel like bloggin nymore, i don feel like doin nythin nymore, jus hope for tis terrible ordeal to pass but it seems an endless tunnel of pain, torture and crap. ****ed is a word to describe my life in the past 5 wks lol and in doesnt seem to be gettin any less ****ed. Thks to those who hav tried to encourage me in these ... times, hopefully with a miracle i may pull through, seriously i hav been that close to crashin and burnin in these 5 wks as death is close to a terminally ill cancer patient in his final stages. Goodbye.

5000 Hits and the rough road of term 2

It has been an ardous, packed, dreadful, gruelling and depressing 2nd term of my first yr at IP. Lol expected -.-, but it caught us slightly off guard and took a while to adjust to the change in pace. The last 3 wks hav been very depressing, dreadful, awful, sad, well -fill in any word which has a negative feelin here-. I had sorta run out of steam by the time i hit wednesday in each of the past 3 wks and lost interest in the days after. Very tired, Very Stressed, Very Confused and Very depressed. With so many diff. activities i really stretched myself tis term, thank god no other month long cricket tournament was there if not i would hav GGed by now XD. Lol was a huge gamble which half paid off half didnt. Until wk 4 I was in cruise control of term 2 handlin the pressure well, then other factors started kickin in. Confused, lost, brain filled with all sorts of sad and depressing thoughts, I crashed. Lol wasnt fantastic the last few wks, sat and literally doing nuthin except emoin for one whole hr day in day out is a tyrannous experience. Slept very late, the increasin work load dint help. The whole cycle kept repeating and repeating everyday, the barrage of tests dint help either, crashed again. No hope is one word to describe the past wk for me, completely depressed, emo, lost in my thoughts. No focus watsoever on most lessons, completely drained by tuesday, lacked the cutting edge which i usually possess rendering myself to be less productive in all ways. Small streaks of joy were not enough to bring me out of the chain depression cycle but its not gonna stay tis way! I will survive or at least try to! Nxt wk is a killer with 4 tests but I will get over tis emoness, tiredness, hopelessness, brokeness feeling of mine and will fight. We seriously need a class outing! my dear 12 jiayou for nxt wk and then we shall party :D!
PS: My blog finally reached 5000 hits yay! thank you all the people who hav evr visited tis blog :D and thank you Mdm Ow for makin me start tis blog as an english project compulsary for the whole lvl, lol funny to see it has evolved into tis.

-LIFE DOES TAKE US ON A WILD RIDE, BUT OUR JOB IS TO CLING ON AND NAVIGATE IT-

Tue: FB Pt then Bio Project at my place
Slackiest PT ever!!!!! Bio project was crap la, we dint do much except for somewhat compiling the report for editing. Um maybe, it was becos the 3 girls ended up trying out hairbands in the mirror at my home!!!

I crashed Hindi Sch half way like at 11am and was welcomed as if i was some movie star? Pinak and Shorya were like waiting at the gates then i walked in then like everyone who was in the canteen(they were havin break) like turned and looked around when i walked in lol XD anyways i used my FB stick to hit pinak durin class so it was worth goin to Hindi Sch, then worked like mad and finally could finish it :) -claps-

Ok last line: Lol wit 3 ccas, extra stuff like Hindi Sch and Keyboard and Yog plus studies this term will be very very very pressured, ah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Todays CPR thing was um, quite crap, though useful but still crap. Me, Joshua, WX and TJ joked around a lot when we had to pretend to ask the dummy we were practising on(it tastes seriously disgusting XD) whether it was ok. I picked it up and slapped it then acted hysterical and screamed at it, wake up wake up! Joshua was like,' ah heck i give up, die la die'. It was really funny and it was over by 11 30am, arg felt like a waste of time. Anyways after that I went to Sakae Sushi with Joshua, WX, TJ, Joey, Jolene and Clarissa at PP. Ya, it was a very diff. experience and I ate only Salmon Rice off the conveyor belt, but it was a gd innovation puttin food on a conveyor belt and a gd experience goin there. Then I took a bus back home back with TJ and Jolene, who both got off at VJ and I picked up Vishnu frm VS becos we both had to do the lit. project which... YES I FINALLY SENT IT!! 6 MINS FRM DEADLINE :D -claps-, -laughs-, lol. Ok srry for that sudden highness hahahaha. Anyways, still got LA, Hist and Bio, not to mention 160 pages of Hindi arg!!!!!!! Oh and Happy B'day to my lil bro Aditya in US, if u r readin this now, lol HAPPY B'DAY!!! :D and Happy B'day to Bhagi too whose is in 3 minutes lol! Good nite :)

Yesterday, was fun. I went for the YOG Sports Presentation Camp from 10 am to 4 pm :o! Lol people there were aged from between 13 to 29 so, yay i wasnt exactly out of place :). Lol even Afiq(rmbr the camp instructor for VIP camp) was there :o!!!!! Mark(The Sports Commentator/ Presenter, u noe the guy frm CNA smtimes) was in charge of the selection of further candidates and he came down to give us tips, but he ended up making us laugh like mad. We had to make a 1 minute script ourselves and present it in front of the camera for viewing by a panel of judges later. The topic was 'My Fav Sport' and obviously i wrote abt soccer lol. I think i did quite ok... ah i ll jus hope to get in when the results come out nxt wk. Anyways I ll be in the chinese daily newspaper (zao bao or smthin lol) either todays one or toms one becos there was some reporter frm wanted to take pics of us durin the camp. It was overall a fun experience... 

17/3/09 :D

Today morning, i had floorball pt in the morning. Seriously dam crap ah i slept at like 12+ last nite then must wake up early. Ah heck, at 9 30am we started, it was seriously the slackiest floorball PT ever, we finished by about 10 10 and started playing Cap. Ball after that. My attacking was dam good, then alvin was also like... anyways.

Back to home after that and Fifa 09!!!!!!!!!!! yay i bought Fernando Torres and he has now scored 3 goals in his past 2 games :D. Until 1pm i played Fifa 09 and blasted music(seriously its a dam gd combo). Then i waited for the girls to arrive while uploading the pics of bintan, lol its retarded there are so many i had to split it into 5 diff. albums. XD

Anyways, srsly, it was dam wierd havin three girls comin over to my place without any guys but ah wat de heck! Me, Auds and Jolene supposedly did the bio report we were supposed to do and Joey, sorta stoned and did her chinese hw while listenin to Kat- Tun. Anyways, ya they were here till 5 pm and then i jus spammed online and work after that.

Cheers and Yay i m back

Gaurav :D

3 mths summary :D

Ok long long time since i blogged, but i was v busy and lazy... lol. Ok i m gonna restart today but jus to sum up the past mths:

We had bridging curriculum for the first 3 wks after our orientation, it was a project abt redesignin our classroom, in my grp I had Auds, Brandy, Jolene and Miley in my grp and we were the most high and retarded grp so yay!!!!!!!!!. I found out a lot of stuff bein with u guys, and had a lot of times, erm... new majestic hotel bus ride will haunt us all definately XD and the time where i found out Jolene's mom was my pri sch teacher :O. But our project went very well and we even came in 2nd out of the 5 groups in class. So Yay!

Next week was JC orientation, we were dam bored so we were ponnin and then we were caught by Iggy. He looked scary but he was right and we shldnt hav been ponnin, anyways THOR SUAN :D. We had quite a fun time, I had Nat, Marie and Miley in my OG, and the rest were the 10 new JC 1S.

But the Friday of that week was awesome, first until 1+ we had sea carnival at ECP. It was fun but soo hot... We all got Sunburnt! However at 7pm onwards we had MASS DANCE AT SUNTEC CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D it was 1 OF THE FUNNEST NIGHTS I HAVE HAD!!!!!!!! We all surroundin the fountain of wealth, goin around in chains shoutin 12!12!12!12! until we were hoarse, the whineying together as a class and the other 5 dances. After the Mass dance we all went to the Sky Bridge on top of Suntec and played truth and dare, wit Ren Jie mash potatoing with XiaoJun lol.

Then studies started, it is suprisingly not strenous and fun. The periods zip pass like breaks and it is engaging most of the times. Yes i did screw up my first chem practical but hey, i did get much better. I also had Cricket National B Div Tournament goin on then and it was awesome even though we dint win. I scored 38 runs against Unity Sec lol and took a wicket against Ping Yi against whom i also scored 5 runs. Then against ACS(I) i scored a dam nice 4 and scored 6 runs lol. With people like Bran, Auds and Jolene in your group obviously it ll be fun and high! XD

Then in Wk 10 we went to Bintan as a cohort, on the first day we did mountain climbin, in crazy rainy conditions. I want to thank, Joey, Jolene and Shilp for their support while climbing the mountain on the first day lol. Durin reflection that nite it was fun to see the class whineying while the other classes were discussing. On the second day, we had CIP and Mangrove Resforestation, and I lost my ipod :(. Thanks 12 for ur encouragement despite me not being able to find my ipod. The Third day, we had to break camp and dragon boat to White Sands Island. I wanna thank Rex, Wei Xuan and Sean for waiting for me to pack my 15 days worth of food b4 we broke camp despite being scolded by the instructors to hurry up. After reachin White Sands, we did sampan rowing, snorkelling and had lunch there, then we dragon boated back to a different part of the resort island to camp overnight. We did campfire prep after reaching the place and decided to do a story on the flock of geese and how they fly together through thick and thin.

IP so far...

Long long time has passed since, the start of the year but it only feels like 1 month, but only over 1 month has passed of sch and it feels like over 3 mths. It has simply been fantastic so far and I love 09v12 :D:D:D:D <3 

Ip orientation :) day 1

Today was fun! lol interesting maybe a better word for the situation. At 7 33am, I entered VJC and proceeded towards the lecture theatre 1, for assembly. Dam, 3 mths of beautiful hols came to an end finally... well it had to sometime. At 7 40 am assembly started as I was chatting with a couple of Indian scholars( we have 3 Indian(2 guys one girl) and 4 Chinese(2 guys and 2 girls) scholars in our class). Mr Boy Eng Seng, who is in charge of the IP department in VJC, welcomed us and gave us the best news of the day probably after that of MAN U 3 - CHELSEA 0, which was that there would be no formal lessons till week 6!! Ya the whole IP1 cohort burst into excited screams and cheers. Then after assembly we went up to the Helmsman rooms( which is like the flexi room at VS), for our orientation briefing. After a quick run through on the day's events, we split up into our classes to play ice-breaker games, such as charades and pass the parcel, we got to know each other's names quite well after that. Then we went back to the helmsman room, for a briefing on the flag making activity. There were small 10 inch rafia strings given out to all of us, which had to be used as lifelines, as in that all of us needed to have one at any one point of the activity if not we would be made to do forfeits by the Peer leaders. So we divided our class into 4 different groups, stealing the strings, protectors, Flag decoraters and material collecters. I was in the stealing string group and so we and the protectors worked together to ensure that our classmates making the flag could do it without anyone trying to steal their strings. So me, Brandon and the chinese scholars, Rex and Francis and the indian scholars, Vishnu and Shilp, went around trying to grab solo victims strings, to provide to our classmates to keep as extra in case they lost their strings. It was immensely fun and by 11 15 we had finished our flag and taken a class photo around the flag :). We quickly stored our flags in the helmsman rooms and went for lunch at 11 30am. We had to make a play about our flag, so we prepared for that after lunch. Then, we had an activity called the Amazing Race, where we had to go around in different tribes(groups) of our different countries(classes). I had Brandon, Sean, Joey, Chun Shu, Miley and myself in my tribe. Basically we had to go around the school and solve different problems in different ways as a tribe and be back as quick as possible. Meanwhile, we could steal other tribes flags(each tribe had one and they were to protect it) while they were unaware of it if they were too busy focusing on the game. So we started out, first we had a game where we had to flip a mat about 3 feet by 3 feet while five of the tribe members were still standing on the mat. So engineering the move, I chose to do the flipping while the rest of my tribemates were balancing themselves :P. It was fun and done in 3 minutes ;D. So we moved on to the next game where we had to lift our teammates through holes in a bunch of raffia strings tied in between 2 pillars. Brandon being the tallest in the level easily jumped across to help as support. Then we lifted Joey, Chun Shu and Sean across. Then I clambered over and Miley jumped through, again we did it quite fast :D. Then we went on to the next 2 games but it was last game that killed our time XD. We had to stack up the balloons in a tower of 8 balloons, however the tower kept collapsing :(, due to the wind. So as Joey says, if not first might as well be last :P so we took our time and to a round of sarcastic applause entered the helmsman room last of all tribes... XD. So despite comin in last, we still had time to work on the play. We had decided on the story where there was a village which depended on the sun(Brandon, cos he is so dam tall) and one day the sun was dying. So the village chief(Me :D!), deployed his trusted warriors to consult the lion(francis) to self-sacrifice itself to give the sun its power, the lion eventually agreed and the sun survived again :D, ya i noe its very retro but for 2 hrs of worth of work thats gd! That was the end of day 1...

New year, new class, new friends, new crazy moments

Happy New Year!!!!!!!! Yes I know this is the latest new year wish u ve got but better late than never, lol another motto along without accuracy not speed(pinak and bhagi and the hindi guys know abt the accuracy-speed thing, so ask them if any confusion). Lol anyways, today is 8th of January for those of you guys who end up losing track of the date on holidays or etc... Ya I kept forgetting the dates in India, lol it happens when u r on travel. Ghajini what to say other than Aamir, well done!!! A true genius 3 1/2 story moving at breakneck speed with a touch of perfectionist Aamir's work. 10/10, even some of the hits of the year: SIK, Jaane Tu, Rab Ne, Jodha Akhbar, etc.. are again brought down a level by this, becos this film has a class of its own! So here begins another chapter in all of our lives, 2009, lets hope for a gr8 year ahead!!!!!!!!! :) I ll be goin to Vjc from this year for IP, so yesterday, I went our class outing. Lol considering that we had only seen ourselves once before and that we had organised the thing completely by ourselves, It was fun and went well. We went 4 bedtime stories, I had to watch it again... but it was fun cos I smuggled a whole macdonalds meal up and ate in the theatre, after the movie we went to the open plaza on Tampines mall 4th floor and just chatted, played games, laughed, joked, it was fun. At least we will able to recognise ourselves on the camp on 12th(thats when our sch starts lol... Monday. Today Rak, came over. He is migrating to US; so sad everyone going US   :(, anyways, we played fifa 09, gears of war and soccer downstairs. The wind blowing downstairs was ferocious it was working against our swerve! yup thats how strong it was and lol still is, but I live on the 19th floor so its natural. We then were getting late, cos by 5 30pm I had make a booking for a tennis court and Rak had to pick up a testimonial from the VS general office. So we were dead late cos we left my place at 5 15pm, but kya kamaal ka luck hai(wat gr8 luck we have) In front of us the Victoria Hall(hostel at VS) bus stood at the traffic light in front of my block, not caring, rather recklessly again, I ran to the bus and asked the bus uncle to let us in he graciously agreed. My god we were saved, the bus dropped me of at Laguna View and took Rakshit straight to Vs, fantastic, saved by our own school. I will miss VS, but look ahead to 2009.

Lol tomorrow I m goin to VS to meet the teachers and hav fun and slack before my sch starts on 12th, dam my 3 mth holiday is ending but it had to end sometime ;) ...

I'm Back!

I arrived at 4 30 am yesterday mornin, it was a gr8 trip in India, next post will hav more detail on it, I slept for virtually the whole of yesterday and fifa09ed tday :D. I so wanna go watch Ghajhni. Anyways, all hail MAN UNITED, CHAMPIONS OF ENGLISH, EUROPEAN AND WORLD CLUB FOOTBALL! 

Bye

2 hours 30 minutes, thats how much time I have left before I leave for India. Today was hectic, especially after 4 30 pm. I woke up at 9 30, then had my breakfast at about 10 30. Then I rushed to Bedok Library to get a bridging curriculum book for VJC next year. I got theone on intergrated humanities cos thats the only subject I will need help in adjusting to the new syllabus, the rest I can hopefully deal with. Anyways then I came back to enjoy my last time playin Fifa 09 for a month I won both the matches so Yay! Then I had to run down to Parkway Parade to get a book for my sister(her PSLE next year!) So with about 4 and a half hours remaining, I took the bus to PP and got the book. While coming back however, as I passed Vs, I saw Ryan sitting at the bus stop(Earlier on when I had been going to PP I had seen them having soccer training.) Rather Recklessly, I took a split second descision and got of the bus! I ran across the road and approached Ryan, the first things I said to him," I have a flight in 2 hrs 57 minutes, hows life and hols so far?" (Yes I know thats kinda crazy but still) We talked for another 10 minutes or so then I boarded another bus to come back home, In that bus I saw loads of Vs boys who had jus come back from camp and a few friends as well. So we talked until I reached my stop, then I sprinted home and now I have 2 hrs and 19minutes till my plane departs. So c ya guys i ll miss u! Most probably I ll have Internet Connection in India but just in case, bye, till 25 th dec or sooner.

India Here I come

Oh, I still cant believe that tomorrow at 9 pm, I will be in a plane on my way to India, for a month. Today was fun, I learnt how to play Bakhuda Tumhi Ho on the keyboard. Yay! Thanks Mr Gomathy. Despite sleepin at 3 30 am, I somehow managed to wake up at 8. Then to the temple and then I was back by, 3 30pm in the afternoon. Enjoying my last day of Fifa 09 for a month, I started playing, yay I won almost every match now I am top of the table. I still have so much packing to do tomorrow, but India here I come, I ll miss you guys and will be back on 25 th dec.

Movies & Hols

I have already watched 3 movies this week, dam and probably gonna be 4(Yuvraaj), tomorrow. But I so wanna watch dostana. Quantum of Solace, its an ok movie, good action, 4 stars. Golmaal Returns, Freakishly funny, but dam cheap humour, they make fun of almost every movie, the ending scene , is also funny, the dance sequences are super lame, the small role characters in the movie was super funny as well, about 4 1/2 stars for making us laugh like maniacs! Man, really, the way Pinak and Amrit were laughing beside me was super funny(We went to watch on thursday). Then after the movie we all went to my place, they stayed until about 8 45, playin Fifa 09, Gears Of War, fooling around, Playin with the Keyboard. The very next day(yesterday), I went to watch Madagascar 2 with Gayatri, it was fun, the movie at least had a good story compared to golmaal returns which had no story line at all, about 3 and a half stars, I love those cute penguins and the lemurs. So basically, Hols have gone by so far, playin Fifa 09, facebooking, checking Emails, Going to Keyboard class 3 times a week, going for a communication skills grade 7 exam, keyboard grade 2 exam, Going to Mandrin Gardens to play soccer and meet Deeren, Meeting up with Amrit and Pinak, Takin photos with Laura Croft, going shopping, meeting up with Akhi and slackin at home.

Last Day at VS, Occasions & Acheivements of 2008

What a year it has been! 17/10/08, I woke up at 6.30 am as usual, got ready for school and descended to my lexus, carrying a bag filled with: 2 pe t shirts, two markers, a pencil case, a bottle and extra clothes. Yes I know not exactly an everyday school bag's contents, however then again this wasnt an everyday school day, today was my swan song at VS. As I arrived inside the foyer, trademarkly late, a group of prefects awaited, not recording my name down for being late, they sorta ushered me in till the canteen. As the national anthem sounded, I stood still right at the lifts beside the canteen, before I could cross over to the classroom side and ascend those steps to 2H. My heart thumping harder than ever, I strolled into the class at 0745. I looked around as I moved towards my seat, in one corner of the class, lay a bunch of chips, drinks and snacks clambered onto two tables, the class had actually brought the things for a class party, not bad, not bad they remembered! :P. So Mr Gabriel then started talking about something which I cant remember now, cos I immediately went to the washroom after arriving. In there, I quickly whipped out my phone(Srry Mr Chia! lol) and called my mom to bring a couple of bags of drinks and chips for the party. I returned to class and asked everyone I could reach to sign the first PE shirt I had brought, that one was for my friends, classmates and all students, while the mass signing was going on, I took out the second PE shirt and went to Mr Gabriel and asked him to sign. 'Best Of Luck In Vjc(disguised sarcasm)', yup thats what he wrote. Lol. As the rest of the class started heading towards the auditorium, I joined them and asked Rama 'why were we going there'. Apparently, we had a talk about piracy and Intellectual Property stuff, hey I didnt care about the talk. The moment we entered the auditorium, I got an sms from my mum that she was reaching in 5 minutes, so as the talk began, I slipped out of the auditorium with my bag, and went down to the gates, to collect the 5 bags of chips, 4 bottles of drinks, chocolates, etc. I then lugged those heavy bags of calories to the class while everyone was attending the talk. Then, I took the second shirt out, the one Mr. Gabriel had signed on, the one for teachers and took it to the staffroom, to get teachers to sign. I called Mr Robin, Ms. Raksha out and stopped Ms. Hashima as she was about to enter and they took turns signing and writing their best wishes on the shirt, yes it was a very emotional moment :(. Then I moved into Mr Chia's Room and asked him to sign as well. It was time to get back to the auditorium before anyone got suspiscious, so ducking, bending, crouching my way through(VS is a perfect CS Map, escp. the sky bridges) , I reached the auditorium and sat there for 10 minutes until the talk was over. Then we all walked back to 2H and the party began, with all the desks pushed to one side. Everyone, gorged right into the snacks and drinks as I went around takin pics, eating chips, sipping coke, savouring the moment. It was brilliant. More people started passing by our class as shirt signing resumed, everyone was chatting with one another, chasing me to tau pok me. The results were at the end handed out, 8th in Class, 68th in level, 3 A1s, missed out in Eng, Maths and science by 1, 1 and 2 marks respectively, ave %tage 71.4. but then again, I didnt care about the results, As the party drew to a close, we all left, It had been an absolute gem of a day. Then me, pinak, amrit and bhagi went to pizza hut for a treat frm me, then we continued to my home and played Fifa 09(I love it!!!!!!). Finally we went to watch Karzzz, which is an insult to the rishi kapoor version, We laughed our heads of throughout the movie from start to finish escpecially when Himesh came on. Come on everyone pinch your noses and sing ' Ek Haseena Thi'! Then braving through the rain rather frivoulously, we entered the MRT. The day was perfect. But really what an year it has been. So many good times and bad times, but 2008 is brilliant not only becos Barack Obama is now the president but of all those comedy moments, all those snipets of fun and laughter. My dad won Leading Indian Enterpruener of The Year award, Yay!, I got third in PESA, got into IP(For those who didnt know thanks for waitin, it is a programme which allows u to skip O levels(10th) and take A levels straight(12th). Even, diwali has passed, i have also used up about 1 and a half months of my 2 3/4 mth holiday, so as I leave for India on Monday(24th Nov) and return on 25th Dec, I will look back to 2008 as a great year, and then look ahead to VJC...
