well well....first AEM today, and the end of the worship module. It's not for me to say whether it was a success or not...but hopefully God moved through it and the ppl attending the module learnt something about worship...and it wouldn't be just a jamming session. Anyway presentation is tomorrow hopefully the glory goes to God. Yes i'll be playing the toms with Sean :P

AEM was great. Mr Sam Tan, ex ACSian and ex BB boy was just the right balance for a cocktail of lightheartedness and professionalism. And i actually learn a lot about the importance of insurance...realised that aeroplanes and buildings have to be insured..and probably even the Sec 1's spanking new labtops.

soccer was good stuff today, the sec1s played a very respectable playground 0-10 formation where everyone went after the ball. We were hounded by like millions of sec 1s at every corner and couldn't dribble the ball out even a few metres. I scored my debut own goal by rebounding a briliant save by bong....and i scored a goal to make up for it. Now the one two with Kenny was one of the best ever done..and Fab went on a blitz and blasting spree again. Arjun met his alter-ego and deja-vu self arjun the sec1. And Zack looked like the sec1 version of Fab.

advice for sec1s, less talk, less scolding each other, more teamwork, more fun and more play! let the feet do the talking.

somehow Wesley Chan still thinks i'm not a guy, and my other name has become Tiffany for obvious reasons...(maybe because it rhymes) wadever i really don't care. Even in the Fabriz Song/Ding Song/ Daniel Song (oh yes happy bdae)/Bong song :P

Korg KeyBoard!

ahh worship module...a bit the streesssssss....

Lost 2...just great...i am feeling a bit lost now

passing on the spiritual mantle. The story of Elijah and Elisha was just so striking today. Just like passing on leadership to the Sec1s. Look for the Sec1s that are anointed by God...not those who seem to be good in our eyes. That the Sec1s are to be called to God, not to us Admin :)

Church is just getting exciting. The joys of ministry. I guess it's one of those things God lets us enjoy and he's happy to see us enjoy i guess...as long as we don't forget Him

i just learnt that Derek can sight read instantly. And that is hax. And did i mention...scary?

Used the spanking new Korg keyboard today...and it wasn't too bad...just too mellowed down at times and then too sharp at other times....ahh! nvrmind...i guess music is never as important as worshipping God. That's why sometimes i might seem slack in my planning of the worship module...hopefully no one misunderstands.

Well yesterday was an interesting day...selling drinks, going around with garbage bags...watching the Admin Room fridge dragged into the track, selling drinks for one buck when a close by drink machine sells at 90 cents, just hilarious. Had a great time though. Lunch was the admin room 'dog biscuits', incidentally, my cup has been spammed by those (how did Asher reach that height??)

ok i'm quite random today..forgive me...now back to physics AA

we have 3 special days today :)

HAPPY BRACES-OFF DAY TO DING!!!!

HAPPY 200th POST DAY TO THIS BLOG!!!

HAPPY BDAE TO SEAN'S LONG TIME FREN VERA!!! which unfortunately because of art club he couldn't meet today...sob. anyway at least you made your prezzie sean. and contrary to popular thought...sean does not enjoy the misunderstandings we have about their purely friends friendship :)

sigh.....Love and Dating...a fitting topic to a school that has just taken in girls.

something struck me....lol the thing about girls maturing faster than guys.....it's a general trend...but ms grace kwee's story of the guy slapping the girl's hand was convincing enough to show that it doesn't apply to everyone. But then again...i must say that guys do mature slower than girls....you can see it from the reactions to things that are said in the auditorium. Call it zeal or just carelessness...but laughing at stuff that isn't laughable...and clapping at the most inappropriate times isn't maturity.

then again...girls don't necessarily look for the mature type...it's an irony in this world...the 'nicer' you are....well it might not be the best.

the best is just to be yourself...and try to grow up i guess...:X

Refurnishment

sigh 16 march my bro's bdae...the usual...an outing to east coast park and a great meal at country manna...boy that was funny...we were the only ones in the restaurant :)

went for parade today...BB parade...even though we were excused...(i can hear some scoffing 'extra' already). Well it was worthwhile though i had to sacrifice precious hwk time (yes even Tim hasn't finished all his hwk). I had a chance to be Galatia Wing Comm..how cool is that?!! and anyway we gave the admin room a much needed revamp, inspired by Extreme Makeover home edition where they tore down the whole building and rebuilt it.

So after lots of cupboard shifting and stuff...we create this cool entrance with a rooftop constructed from the pikes. And the admin room is super big now....Gideon says we can breakdance at the back of the bandroom...where there's a ton of space. Incredible what 4 hrs of clearing stuff can do for you :)

haven't done pullups in a long time...shunned the pull up bars at Dover for fear of more attention from fairsians...and haven't been to school pull up bars coz there's no sch (for those who didn't realise due to the great amount of work..it is the school hols!!) so yea i'll probably deprove AGAIN!!!

kk gtg now....chatting to ms phuan online...directly from australia wow!

my turn ian :)

一路走来，　我们一直一起走，凹凸不平的山路，泥泞的小径，　

我们都走过。彼此脑海从未浮现过分开的注意。小时候的相遇，大概是缘分吧，我们双眸相见，成了一生的朋友。

但那一天，我们到了一条分岔路。过去也碰上了不少岔路，彼此总是选择同样的路，走一样的方向。而这岔路看起来也没什么不同－路边长满杂草，杂草之间长了几朵坚强的小花，一条路往西方延直，另一条却朝着东方－　没什么不同，但我总觉得有点异样，总觉得有点不对劲。

可能是天空中密布着的浓云，那种快要下雨的感觉实在让人揪心而不安，可能是天气的缘故吧。

“你也感到一点不对劲吗？”显然他也看透了我的心情。

“我们一起走……”他揣摩一会儿，仿佛想不出表达心意的话，“…走了多久了？”

我怔怔地望着他，着些年来，我是没有想过这回事，他也没有问过这一句，怎么忽然问道？其实，第一次见面的事，我都忘了，只是隐隐约约地记着，回忆已被抛到脑里的某一角落。我怎么那么不珍惜？惭愧知情涌上心头。

“你可能忘了，但我们已走了十年。“

十年？没有吧。但我一边端详着他，一边发现他的确长大了，思想也成熟了。不仅是他，我也成长了，我们不再是那对幼稚的小孩了。

“记得…我们答应过，永远不会分开？但…我在想…”他背对着我说。

“…我们得分开了。”他终于勇敢地把话说出来。虽然我看不见他的脸庞，但我听得出他心中的痛苦，我的视线也开始模糊了。我双眼带着眼泪地伸出手，把手放在他的肩上。

月有阴晴圆缺，人有悲欢离合。缘分能让人相遇，也能使人分离。那天，我看着朋友眼中的决心，即使不舍，也同意分开了。我们彼此终于有不同的志向，不同的梦想了。

那天乌云密布，接下来，你想象的可能是一场倾盆大雨，比较适合朋友分开的画面，但那天乌云却渐渐散了，天空出现灿烂明亮的太阳，仿佛在安慰我们，也似乎在照亮我们未来的路途。

一路走来，我们终于来到得分开得尽头了，去追求彼此不同的梦想，然而，我心里有着一种感觉，他不断地告诉我，缘分会让我们在相遇！

sigh..back from TA camp...a v.tiring experience...here's just few of my reflections....

1) I'm loving this whole experience of taking care of Sec1s....both physically and spiritually i guess. Spiritually..not quite there yet...there's still so much to do spiritually as an admin. We really need a change of heart in order for the spiritual needs to be met. Sometimes i get quite discourgaed or disheartened at comments like the camp has gone to a waste without the spiritualy aspect...but then i remember my birthday verse Joshua 1:9!!! do not be discouraged! God's strength in our weakness. I really pray that God will give us peace in how to resolve this issue and raise a generation of people who will be close to God!

sigh speaking of spiritual...i really got to get my life right first...that sin..go away in Jesus' name!

2) To scare someone...put them in a dark and quiet place. That's wad i learnt from the night games...bashing and making unnecessary noises will not make ppl scared for sure. But giving them that feeling of apprehension is the best way..ahaha :P. And one of the checkpoints required a person to walk alone into the clocktower at night...wow...freaky :P. The admin were more freaked out then the sec1s lol.

3) Orchard games....wow this needs some subtitles:

a) Holding up a 'Honk if you think I'm Hot' sign and running into a whole group of vehicles at a traffic junction is just satisfying...lol you realise how cheeky some Singaporeans really are...we really got a lot of honks k?

b) Singing 'We are the champions' replacing the 'We' with 'You' to a bunch of girls who we don't know...now being the nice person i was...i actually helped the sec1s out on this one..but it was supposed to be done sec1s alone!! Aiyah it was fun to watch the girls just freak out and think that we were lunatics. embarrasing though..totally.

4) Worship sessions...Ding did a good job...Sec1s were really shaq when i was leading...and Emil...well i pray he'll worry less next time...Thank God for everything that went pretty smoothly. However again...i have to comment on the spiritual aspect of the camp. i dunno...it just didn't feel like it materialized. But that whole thing on coporal punishment banned, and our change of mindset...i felt it was a step there!

5) Change parades...hardly any. Pushups, hardly any except on the second day morn when Wesley went crazy. aiyah...the sec1s had it easy and fun...but then again, that was the change we were trying to make. hope all the sec1s enjoyed the camp!

6) Hey don't be a fool (hey hey), somebody said we are number two/David Hu/Seagearnt Vishnu (who?), we are number one/Seagearnt Wesley Chan, TA2!!!

7) TA test answers...wow Benjamin Liau's was so encouraging :) and yes i'm not being a pedophile..but he's v.cute k? hopefully he'll speak up more...and he is...encouraging! Ok...so Joshua Cao became John Cao, Wesley Chan became Weasley Chan (right out of Harry PotteR), Vishnu became the CE NCO, I became Juniors NCO, and the Drill OIC became Mr Kekanan Pusing (answer provided by Malcolm...ahahaa). Thanks for the laughs guys!

8) Late nights and mega cream crackers...ok the cream crackers made everything right! they were just sooooooo good. Kenneth ate 33, John gobbled down like 20 sth, and kester also 20 sth, I? being anorexic took about ....7? and yes i took XL for T shirt size so i can't be anorexic nor am i thin! The sleeves were too long, i folded them up and was called a girl..bah :P

9) Lots of running. And on the last day we were cheered on by a group of girls who we didn't know at all....of course we had no time to patronize (not like we would anyway). Reminds me of the time i was doing pullups and a group of Fairfield students watched secretly from the back and i went away with an applause :P. It was just 4 pullups...come on..Derek can do like 8

10) Slept on grass with the Sec1s and my legs itched like dunno wad after that night :)

haha...on the overall a fun-filled and enjoyable camp. Hope all the Sec1s loved it!

bb! (no pun intended)

How does one bring a brand new 3k NEC labtop to school...and get it broken on the very same day...as in the LCD screen cracked into 2 parts...and the display becomes all messed up? ummm i dunno...just ask Emil..he managed to do it..not intentionally though. After all, his fren broke it for him and quite fortunately his fren is covering all the cost of that labtop.

So you might be asking? WOW!!! how in the world and why in the world is Tim posting 2 days in a row? isn't that impossible (in view of latest trends). Yes it is impossible. Today is an exception. There are always exceptions :P. Because for the next three days i'm going on TA2 camp. Now every time there is camp it means a few things:

1) This blog will die momentarily
2) I need to get someone to multi SK for me
3) No hot baths for the next few days
4) No comfy bed for the next few days
5) Late nights
6) At least we get to be with frens :)

And no...sitting in an awkward crossed legged position does not make you a girl.

Ok...now i was booked a second time in the term for being late again..because i had to dress my soccer wound...and do my QT !! not fair lor...but i guess it was a good thing that i did my QT...coz the message today was so applicable to the sec1s this year. To coach them spiritually, we have to have a genuine concern for them first. Of course!

POD today shed some light on one particular prefect rule...no eating in class.
Now...we are all 'condemned to be free', and since there are no absolutes..and rationality is limited...
There is no rational reason to eat in the SAC, or eat anywhere else. We simply...eat!
So that's wad i did, pure defiance, ate at the di (that's the track...and i dunno why we call it a di). Anyway, that confession might just get me booked AGAIN...then i get DC!! woot!

ok gtg soon..... packing for camp and choinging hwk is no joke...not to mention i need to spend time with God to get myself right with Him :)

well well...guess who's been neglecting the old blog recently.....well but you can't blame it on a guy...who has to handle tons of hwk...the major contributions made by Mrs Gina Ong...and ummm....Loo....Chinese and Math. And then there's CMath...just came in so suddenly like yesterday..wham! three worksheets at a go. Well i think i just kicked myself in the foot by not posting.....and now this blog will thereby be declared dead.

" I feel sad giving you guys this hwk, but it makes me sadder if i don't give it :P" guess who?

this is post 194...i must make it to 200....c'mon...just a bit more!!!

hmmm just wondered if anyone heard of the luge at sentosa b4...it was cool. These go kart things that you pay like a lot for a go...but i guess the experience first time was kinda exciting...taking the skiing like thing up hill, then speeding back down again on the blistering road...woot. I think i have pics somewhere...but shld i post them for fun? haha

and of course there was the long awaited re-test for langarts (The Jaguar!!!!)

and recently i've been inspired to another hobby...writing poetry, something less time-taxing than blogskin making...which i have been forced to give up atm due to time constraints.

Poetry in Music...that's wad i shall do....play a few songs of poems set to music...sounds cool?

now gtg.....exponential graphS!!!

Well well...another tough day....every day has its lessons to learn:

1) Helping ppl isn't always v.good..somethings you get scolded for it
2) Being nice (yes LArts Teachers hate this word) isn't always the best...you get exploited in the future
3) No Soccer in the Art Room
4) Mrs Gina Ong is almost sadomasochistic (just jkjk) in nature :P. Spent a whole Amath lesson tormenting us..even though i really didn't mind not knowing the marks.
5) Sometimes Mr Jason Chan deserves more respect (wait...not sometimes)
6) Mdm Loo is really upset with all of us. As we grow older...we learn more bad stuff.
7) Having Patrick on your side is a real asset! LangArts Presentation ftw!
