imagine.

Ahhh! Finally i get some time to post. This entire week has been really busy because of the eng, chinese, maths, malay and biology tests. All of them went pretty well; I will find out in time to come. Malay was quite a struggle, but still I made it through... one guy gave up, sadly. Left most of his answers blank and said there was no point staying. Biology was quite good, but I kinda screwed up a few questions for MCQ. Okay enough about the tests! Now to the fun parts:
Tuesday

Tuesday was the day just before prefects' investiture and we rushed work all the way till about 10.30pm, so I only reached home at 11pm or so. We were rushing the stage backdrop, external decorations, the 'roads' in the aisles and of course, our singing of 'High' by lighthouse family. I find our new stage really small, to be honest, as compared to the one I saw in the nanyang high sch auditorium, but then again, the school is intending to build another auditorium i think, so yep, hopefully it will be better. Yea in this pic you can see what I mean... the backdrop and the 't' road. And haha the backdrop; some people commented the gryphon in the RPM meter resembled a chicken... i only realised that after PI. Oh yea, I remember i went for the triple jump heats and earned 1 point!! Hahahaaa eighth place: at least i got into the finals, where most of the ppl were trackers. There were like 18++ ppl competing. Nvm i shall redeem myself in the house swim carnival.

Yep so now for the real thing...
Wednesday
Crunch time!! Everything was quite a rush, yes i mean the entire day. In the morning, I had swimming PE lesson, haha but actually we were supposed to be doing basketball. Lucky for us because we weren't informed, so we swam.. or i would be stinking with sweat later on during PI, which isn't very good. Hmm yea that's the good thing about water sports: you don't sweat hahahaaa. Finally settled the touring allocations like just 1 hour before PI started. So everyone sat down... watched the introduction video clip of 'shift', 'steer' and 'speed', which basically introduces what we brainstormed for so long. Took really long to think of this theme. After the video was the introduction of the departments in RIPB.
First was Human Resource, which is my department!! Yeaaaaa!! The entrance was pretty cool, just like every single year, walked in from the right and the left, meeting in the middle where there was this yellow and black tape, like you know the bumblebee color. Walked all the way up to stage and did a pose. Ours was to tug the sides of our blazers, at the portion near the chest and then look at the audience with the look-i-am-the-coolest-guy-on-earth kind of look; jia hao suggested it, turned out pretty well. Then came discipline board with some rock music entrance, then urm communications with Seven Nation Army as the entrance song, and welfare, which i think is one of the best. yes; ONE of the best, the best is still HR :P They had Real Slim Shady by Eminem so it was quite cool, considering they had people like zheng xuan, gabriel tong and kartik.
Next was quite boring, we sat there for the speech by the Headmaster, guest of honour and finally master paul tern, cos he's so im-paul-tern. :D We all changed into the board tshirt backstage, and the finale was the singing of 'high'... yea quite fun. Finally for one year we can wear something else besides the blazer for touring. Did the unite cheer and spirit, as tradition.
So i toured the headgirl and one of the dpt heads of chij st. joseph wif luwei till about 5pm, brought one of yanliang's nanyang tour guests to the bus-stop cos yan liang was erhm busy entertaining the rest... Haha one of my friends from nanyang was complaining that we copied their entire finale, cos they did sing a song too, but ah well, all finales are the same. Next year shall be different though muahhahahaha!
After everything was over, we dunked the im-paul-tern guy into the baby pool, cos there were ace ppl swimming (yes. i missed training. :S) Can't post the picture here.. common sense hhaa. Was waiting for my mum to fetch me, so we were playing the remote controlled cars, and the construction workers seemed to enjoy watching the cars flying all over. I kinda enjoyed it too, the last time i played wif such cars was in primary 2 or 3 i guess. Yes that's for prefects' investiture!!

Post-PI celebrations!!
Yay had celebrations on Saturday, which was yesterday. wow this sure is a very long post... Spent the entire morning at home studying history. Then in the afternoon I went out to eat with my parents to kind of celebrate my mother's birthday, cos i couldn't make it in the evening. Went out at 3.30pm in the afternoon, took 13 long stops from bishan to Bukit batok, only to realise i left my handphone in the car when my father dropped me at bishan mrt. So i was technically in the stone age: no watch >> no check of time, no handphone >> lost.
When we were there we started to wonder how each of us got there, since we mostly lived quite far away. Paul probably navigated here using a compass and a parang; bashed through the forests haha, since he's a scout; Jonathan lim could have ran a marathon here, since he's always so enthu in running haha, tracker mah. So maybe i could have swam there...
Celebrated at the civil service club. First we did bowling, but I really really sucked bigtime, cos i got 0 for the first set. Guess i haven't played for quite a while, my final score was 94 i think. After bowling it was about 6.40pm, so I walked around the place together with some of my friends. To the arcade.. played a round of daytona with guan lin, almost lost though, cos he crashed into me at the start and my car was an auto, so i couldn't pick up speed properly. Had dinner at the treehouse. Was pretty plain but ahh it wasn't the food that mattered, we all had a fun time. After dinner we had birthday celebrations and this time Kristian is really sneaky. He took Oreo, and replaced the cream in it with toothpaste, so it was pretty cool haha. I helped!! Go check out shawn lee's blog for the photos hahaa.

was really fun!! After that I went LANning wif some of the prefects, but in the end only me, luwei and adil played counterstrike. Still it was very fun, haha luwei carried the para and sprayed like siao. At the last 10 minutes two outsiders wanted to fight us at fy_pool_day, but they got OWNED hahahaaa. They got owned by adil wif his MP5 navy, owned by luwei for his para spraying, and they got owned by me for my ak-47 and shotgun ahhahaaaa. They got quite frustrated I must say... haha cos i play wif china dudes on cs source, so got a bit of exp :P. nvm a game is always a game. So I took 13 looonng stops all the way back to bishan wif xiang peng and he gave me a 20minute lecture on the 'essentials of DOTA'. hahaha cos i never understand dota. I only realised ytd that in fact, you are only controlling one hero on the entire map which has always seemed so messy. For the last 10 minutes or so i told him about the 'essentials of Counter-strike' lol, about the techniques and so on. Had a great day!

Finally i reach the end of my post. hhahahaa!! essay writing mann and urmm sorrie about the larger font size. some things: i removed the bars and the videos cos ppl complain that it takes super long to load. oh well...
