304 a.k.a Power 4

The sands of time cannot be stopped.Years pass whether we will them or not. . . but we can remember.What has been lost may yet live on in memories. That which you will hear is imperfect and fragmented, yet treasure it, for without you it does not exist. I give you now the memories of events that have been following us for the year of 2006 in 304 . . . . .

On the first day of school, in 304 , most of us did not know each other very well yet... there maybe some of your closest or even best friends that followed you as we got promoted to sec 3 express... Some of us at that time may also have kept muttering ," oh shit, the person whom i hate is still in the same class as me" , some maybe quite disappointed, because of the sec 2 streaming, whereby the friends whom he/she wished to be in the same class with did not really happen...

The sec 3 camp(22th february - 24th february 2006) that was organised, was really a success... there, we got to know each other, regardless of gender.... we called ourselves member of "POWER 4" during the camp, we learnt to work with the classmates as a team, the kayaking, find the hostages,etc... The "roti prata" , cheer really made us united as a class...
That's the first step for us to work as a class....other words, the prologue of the 304-story . . .. .

After the camp, the other event that showed that our class is united is the EARTH DAY CHALLENGE(20th april 2006)... most of our class population went down to ghim-moh, holland, clementi and destir road(correct spelling?) to collect newspapers... unfortunately, we did not win, but yet, if we examine it carefully, this had proven that our class is united enough to tackle any obstacles that require more than one strength, because we were able to split into groups and went down just for the purpose to collect newspapers, which most of the other class did not did so ...

When mid-year exam is over, most of our class population went for class outing @ pizza hut centrepoint... we chit-chat there,while enjoying our pizzas, this further strengthen our friendship with each other...

Second semester came.... during national day celebration@ school (8th august 2006), almost all of our class member wear our class t-shirt.... this also shows that we knew how to work as a class....

Then came the case whereby there's a inter-class conflict, that involves principal and mr chua to come down to the scene.. that case showed our unity had been depleted by a bit, but, i strongly believe that it involves some sabotage....anyway we, the members of 304 were the most cooperative class for the whole sec 3 level...

Final exam results were released .... all of us were promoted , except one.... this person may be hated by most of us... but yet, we need to feel sorry for the person....

So, that's all the main event that happened in 304, for the year of 2006... I may have forgotten to mention some events, as i wrote this as what i had recorded down in my diary.... so please forgive me if any of the event that did not being mentioned here...

304.... we have a dream to be the best class,to win the competition with the other competitor, 305... that's not 'a piece of cake' competition... this may be tough enough, but, i know that we can do it as a class.... Let's us keep our days in 304 as memories,and move on forward, cos when it comes to next year, we will be sitting for O level ..... Let's us strive together as one class, try to be the best of the best for the year of 2007, in 404 rockz..... GOOD LUCK ! and MAY YOUR SWORD STAY SHARP ! ! !

Also from this entry, i, on behalf of the class would like to thank mr chai for all the things he had done for our class, as a form teacher....

=)

well, today was the last day of the term.... it felt to me as its just yesterday we began the sec 3 life... but anyway, we had to move on,cos there's no more reason for us to stay behind, ahead us 'O' Level will be coming to us next year...
anyway let me tell you what today's like...
well, firstly in the morning, we have class cleaning throughout the day until 9.30am... lolz, at dat time also, mrs toh came in to our class to distribute the report books, that time really made me nervous.... i was hoping my english would pass, when i opened my report book, YES !!! i cleared english... yeah yeah yeah.... the overall result is passed, and promotion criteria is promoted to sec 4 express, not advanced ....=D, then, we went for our longest recess until 10.40am... after dat, we stayed spent time in hall until around 12pm,for the giving out of awards.... after dat, went to have lunch wif johnson, tingwei and seen teng.... then, i was thinking like , should i went for my library duties or go home straight, and i decided to go home to spend more time wif my parents who were just in singapore...Reached the front door of my house,saw a lot of shoes and sandals scattered around , then i was thinking like, wah lao, shouldn't have choose to go home.... cos,my parents had went out somewhere, while my grandma was in home, furthermore, my younger cousins whom i would refer as " monkeys " were there as well, shit sia, occupy computer till like non-stop like that..
Immediately, i find a way to excuse myself, went back to school to spend my time there...cos its useless to be nagged or just to entertain the monkeys.... at school, luckily i met seen teng, johnson, and tingwei in the school library... we chatted until around 3pm then johnson went for choir and tingwei & seenteng went for the geog trip briefing... for 1 hour, i just pick any geography related books, and read them...also, i get to know the librarian' son, the small boy who usually hang around the library after school hours... lolz he's very friendly, and he's a lot better than the monkeys that roamed around my home... around 4pm, ting wei came and we made our way to queenstown mrt station.. lolz its was fun.. by the time i got back to home, the monkeys had already went back to my uncle's other house... well, my grandma still here, but i knew how to handle her...
Well, since today is the last day of OUR sec 3 life, i am planning to write a blog entry on 304... most probably after this weekend whereby my grandma and monkeys presence are not anymore...
k cya nitez !

Vivo city ... =)

hihi, well this post will be talking about vivo city, which i visited yesterday =)
Well, actually the plan to visit vivocity did not came directly to my mind.. i was just too bored to wait for the clock to strike 5 0'clock in the evening, which was the time whereby i should went to harbourfront to fetch my parents...so, i decided to just drop-by vivocity, to just take a look, since i heard that most of the stores have yet to start business yet....

but,....the information about vivocity was wrong.......

There were a lot of ppl in vivocity, and guess what, the most of the stores had already started their business....
The place that really attracted my attention is the last storey of the building, the auditorium, whereby we were free to walk around the pool of water, i was able to view the sea, sentosa, the ferry,cable car, etc... the scenery was very relaxing...


wah lao ! , the pool of water which supposed to be a decoration, but... there were a lot of children playing in the water.... well, its ok, children are tolerable rite... but when it comes to a group of aunties walking in the water, barefooted, i thought that it was sooo 'bo liao' cos ,they're old already still think very young like that, they kept pulling their jeans high high summore, wanna show off their leg .. . . nope, i'm not interested in looking @ aunties , i only interested to look at girls that are about my age...

Being @ Vivocity for the first time, i lost my way many times yesterday, the map misleaded me to a dead end.... >.<
but anyway, i was glad that it was an informative trip, which helps to keep me updated on what's new and happening in singapore....Vivocity grand opening will be on 1st of december (am i right?) and i can tell that vivocity will be the most visited plaza, which will be the one that'll succeed after suntec city =)

=)

Hihi, today was usual, morning went to school, lolz, the weather was so strange, sometimes suddenly light shower, then stop, then shower again, It made us to climb up down the stairs >.<, because when it showered, prefect told us to go back to our class… then at 4th level, then we saw mr chua giving hand signal for us to come down to the parade square… then, halfway then shower again, then must go up again…

Basically today, the teacher did not teach much… first, mother tongue, remained in class, a math, we learned about binomial theorem….then, chemistry, ionic equation…. E math, go through homework and test, aww did some careless mistakes….physics, we had to did 4 pieces of paper, that were being passed up on that day…=p

Yup, then after lunch with tingwei and Johnson, I went for my library duties…lolz, today we were dismissed quite early, 3.30pm…. then reached home, went out with my parents to orchard road…..
Yup yup dats all for today… k cya nitez !

Budget terminal .....=)

well, basically for today's post, i will be talking about the budget terminal...Yesterday i went there to meet my other aunt to collect something from her.... actually i did not know how to get to budget terminal as it was just being opened few months ago...and i had never visited it even once...my travel by mrt from redhill mrt station to tanah merah mrt station seemed to be so fast, when the train said tanah merah interchange, i was like ," wah, how come today the journey seemed to be so fast?" anyway, after that, i went to changi airport, hoping to ask the ppl there should i couldn't find my way to budget terminal... but, as i tapped my ez-link card near the exit, saw a board written (budget terminal ->) i was like huh? , cos the arrow pointed at the empty alley.... at the same time listening to my mp4 player, i walked along the corridor, there were no ppl along the alley,which made me keep worrying, am i walking in the right path? i was more worried when i saw a group of Singapore airline stewardess pulling their baggage following me from behind...
Then my worries were put to rest when the alley lead to a hugeeee bus terminal and i saw the free budget terminal bus....


basically i was amazed by the budget terminal, despite its usage which is just to cater the low cost flight, for example tiger airlines....but, the terminal's cleanliness, facilities, etc.. were still unmatchable by the neighbouring countries...its size is mammoth, despite singapore has a shortage of land.... the presence of money changer, atm machines, meeting services provider, taxi services, electronic hotel reservation, vending machines,etc ... have already shown that this terminal is able to provide basic convinience and accessibility to cities and destinated areas to the tourists ...
Although it is used to cater low budget flight, but the security at the airport still deserve a two-thumbs up, because yesterday i witnessed a woman's goods, packed in big black plastic back was disposed to the bin, i managed to eavesdropped the woman speaking in indonesian language as she complained to a guy who i believed is her husband, " that security guy lar, confiscated my sausages.." After collecting my goods, i board the bus, lolz, the whole budget terminal bus was full of Indonesian, hahaz and they tell jokes in hokkien..=) then one guy very funnay, after doing a head count , he tell to the driver , " diver, gogogo!" and the driver was puzzled. keep staring at him , because he pronounced "diver" instead of driver and pronounced budget terminal as "buget terminal" lolz lolz lolz

lolz, my aunt families had gone for her cruise, for the purpose of gambling at the casino, my grandma had just went to Genting , hahaz, finally a peaceful home..... they're coming back on the 25th, which mean this wedneday... anyway, despite they're gone, i still will limit my online period, because i felt elated that my parents are coming to singapore today...=D yeah !!!!!

hahaz well, yesterday was an experience for me, my very own sec3 geography field trip to budget terminal...XD anyway i learnt something yesterday, something that concerns with tourism...=)

k cya gtg now !

=)

hi, managed to blog this in the morning of 22nd october...well as expected, yesterday my aunt arrived at 6pm, while i made my way to budget terminal to get something....reached home at around 10pm+, saw a group of them hanging around the living room...for being polite purposes, i just greeted them and made my way to my room to take bath stuff....... when i was bathing halfway, my grandma wanna start trouble wif me by shouting, " why u use the toilet so long??? u lay egg there is it??" inside, i was like grr, i just go in and for 2 minutes (i brought an alarm clock wif me) XD then she shouted like mad like that ,and i wanna punch the old haggard in the face....but i decided not to... then my grandma only son, ADUT, he went to take the spare key to unlock the toilet door... wtf, luckily i had finished my shower and was brushing my teeth, standing near the door... so, when he opened the door, i was shocked and managed to kicked the door close as hard as i could,before it opened widely.... When i came out of the toilet, i ignored their face... i made my way to my room, wtf, the living room was full wif smoke, cos ADUT is smoking.... and yet, my grandma said that he did the right thing..smoking good thing??? wait till both of them get lung cancer then i laughed at them..... Smelling the ciggarette smoke can made to lost control of my temper, cos i grew up in a family where by none of my family members are smoking....what i did was that i went to the kitchen, took a towel and wet it and went back to my room... put the towel on the gap at the bottom of the door... haha IPP exercise really useful at this time.... As expected also, the computer was occupied the whole day yesterday, i managed to blog today, as early as 6am+++ they still havent wake up yet...well , in the next entry, i will talk about my experience in the the budget terminal...., not also forgetting, the photos....

k cya nitez !

=)

hi, today, school ended quite fast, 11.15am.... then, ting wei, johnson, seen teng and i went for billiard game.... lolz we did a series number of matches, like 3 ppl games, 8' balls game....well fun part is that sometimes, the ball that u had expected not to go in, will go in, and vice-versa....we spend all the afternoon in the billiard table; from 1pm to around 5pm in the evening....
after the game, we're all very tired....
but,
its a game that is really enjoyable... and we're all satisfied =)

*well i faced some problems for the transferring of the photos from phone to pc... so, maybe the photo may be uploaded tml....*

aww... from tml onwards, my online time maybe cut to almost none, cos my aunty's family are coming tml wif my grandma(as what i had mentioned earlier)... there may be no more time for me to 'chiong maple', 'dance at audition' , 'race at kongkong' and even to go online during daytimes.... but for blog, i can still keep it updated, by using it during midnight or as early as 4 or 5am in the morning....

k ,cya nitez! =)

=)

well, basically today was usual, woke up @ 7am, then played maple until noon... then went back maple again... evening time i couldn't use com @ all cos my cousin used it inconsiderately....used com until he satisfied then he will shut down the com...
i also wondered, that on 21st of october, my auntie & uncle ( my cousin's parents) and my maternal grandmother will be coming to singapore... i would expect that my going online period will be reduced to almost none, because my cousin's younger brother can play com 24/7 one.... summore, my ama is here, grr... hated her presence, cos she will purposely like to target me for her to nag and nag and nag until i was irritated by her action...
the main point is that i will not have any privacy anymore in the house,cos at that time they will be hanging around my room, which is so unfortunate that the com was inside my room...so, i would prefer to stay away from the house for that period cos my aunt some more will like to 'suan' me one.... haha maybe i should take shelter in my favourite haunt; orchard library XD


well, tml will be the day whereby i would know whether i can be advanced or not.... and i believe that i surely can....

k dats all for today cya, nitez !

=):)

(thanks to ting wei for sending me the photo of zhengyan and mine's project)

hihi, today was quite interesting.... it started with A math, mrs toh went through some difficult questions for the final year exam.... then geog, we started the chapter on development, a very interesting but hard topic.... then for PE, we stayed in class, since mr ali was not around....
Then, english lesson... ms leong went through the final year english paper with us and taught us on how to understand the passage clearly and therefore, being able to answer the questions correctly.Then malay lesson, we did a test paper and crossword puzzle....then, its the pastoral care lesson...when i returned to class, joshua asked whether i could switch with him for the physics workshop "electrical safety for secondary school"@ singapore poly...

at first, i was reluctant, cos i had Library duties today.... but then when i thought it all over again, its a rare chance to learn something that was beyond the textbooks..further decided to go when joshua said that my clique, ting wei was going as well, i immediately agreed.... =)


well, today, @ singapore poly was an experience for me... cos there was lots of things that i learnt today... on how to settle wif the consumer unit at homes, the safe way in handling with the lethal things... effect of getting electric-shocked... etc
we have the theory and practical part...but i still prefer the practical part, whereby we were to assemble the light bulb switch with timer.... i teamed up with zheng yan....that time, i did not know to use the 'scissors' to strip the wire and cut the wire.... lolz lucky for me that zheng yan knew how to do it...

then, after the practical, we rested for about 5 min.... chit-chating with each other..... lolz.... grr >.< the gossips seemed nvr to fade away...then the last two items were the burning of the wire and the importance of earth wire, whereby it 'cut' away the electricity when the current is too high...
they also did a 'live' demonstration on what will happen if we were to touch the kettle that is not being earth wired... well, they also said that current could be passed from kettle to human and from one human to another human if they touch each other ...

hahaz, well today is so fun... we learnt a lot of things from this workshop....hahaz very sleepy rite now.. k cya nitez !

=)

well, today i managed to find out from a few teachers about whether what's the criteria for advancement.....well at least i at least lower down my 'level of worry'... Mr low, Mr Tan, Ms Leong, said that if english failed, and i passed 5 subjects, there's a greater chance to advance....well, thank you teachers, and others for all your help..... =)

lets view about today.... at school, lessons as normal, geog lesson,went through exam papers....physics, learned a bit about sound and waves, then comes chemistry lesson.whole Chemistry lesson was to go through exam paper.... then english, we have our 'free' period in the library... last two periods were meant for CCA point checking....
Of all i saw, i was quite suprised.... i only got 7 points for my three entire years.... can't believe it actually, because library only gives a few points...that time, i was sure that i had made an unwise choice for cca last year...But anyway, the past can't be changed at all,while the future still can.... looks like i have no more choice but to move on till next year as a librarian. Its better to be awarded some points rather no points at all.... mostly, JC won't cut off ur point that much, they mostly cut only 2,1 points or not at all....it only depends on the O'level result...

then after school, went to eat lunch wif johnson, then wait for ting wei and seen teng from their Australian perth geography field trip briefing.... then johnson went for his choir, while the three of us went to play billiard..=D
haha its so fun.....

then, that's all my day for today =) at least now i feel a lot better now... well cya... nitez =):)

sad day....

well, today was the day whereby i felt sad for the whole day.... morning, i went to give a call to my parents. Reporting to them about my final year result....

Of course, when i said i failed english paper 2, the scolded me .... yup, i deserved that scolding, because i couldn't even pass a single english paper.... My parents kept saying that i won't be advanced to sec 4E, cos as what mr chai said," if u failed english, ur other subjects must be at least A1"
My result are not even A1, mostly hanging around B categories....

Of the 3 failure of overall english in class, which was 45%,48% and 49.8%, i can already tell that i am the one with 45%, because of my P2 result now and my CAs and SAs....... let say for CA1 and CA2, each 15% , i got 50. . . then SA1, 25%o the total, i got 49.. and SA2, which is 45%, P2 let say 40.....
all of them added up to 100% which is the overall , then the overall result will be around 15+12.25+18= 45.25

Both my parents were really disappointed with my result that my father wrath had reached the highest level and therefore, he did not want to talk to me already, because i disgraced the family.... my mother said that of all my grandfather's son and daughter, i will be the one who ever retained.... ..... . . . . .
my parents stated that if i am not able to proceed to sec 4E, they will force me to go back to indonesia... no i don't want to go back... i want to study in singapore.... with my classmates of 304....in queensway secondary school.. . ..

My only hope is now is just to hope that the teachers will be kind enough to let me to advance to sec4E... please... please.... let me advance to sec 4E....

Checking of paper... haizzzzz

well today was quite a fearful day for me, cos its the checking of paper...well, i'm still afraid that i will be retained or channeled to 4NA

and as paper being checked, i'm quite happy dat i passed all subject.... awww geog, lose 1 mark to ting wei. . . grrr >.<
chemistry, physics,e & A math,Malay i did usual, not too bad and not too good....

But....

I failed my english P2, 22.5/50 . . .. well, english P1 for me, there will be very thin chance of scoring, cos i need about 3 extra marks in order to get just pass. . . . anyway, paper 1, i always can't score at all, probably just passed or even failed if the examiner really strict .. .. .

Well, i asked mr chai just now, he said that in order to be advanced, need at least 5 passes and must be at least all A1. . . .hearing that made me feel nervous liao.... english failed, english failed... wah lao..... i dun wanna retain....nor going to 4NA....

My 'thin' hope will just that the examiner will be kind enough to let me pass by 3 marks for P1, so my score will be 33/60, then i will pass the whole english final year paper....

Considering my CA1, CA2 all the marks were all fluctuating, sometimes failed, sometimes just passed.....also, my SA1 failed by 1 mark....
oh well.... i just hope i can at least hit 50% for overall english then i happy like siao like that already. . . .

=)

today hor, no school..... but yet still woke up @ 7am.... of course for reason to chiong maple.... but maple program got problem, so played audition instead.... play until half way then went to play kongkong ... play until i skipped my breakfast....>.<

Afternoon.... then went to chinatown, since my parent asked me to get enquiry about tour to GENTING HIGHLAND.. . . sianz sia.... the tour agencies some like 'bochup' about his customer one....then after questioning around 10 tour agencies, went to enjoy myself, decided to go dhoby ghaut to play arcade, wanna try the racing game.... reached plaza singapura then i realized that it was normal school day, students caught in arcade or LAN Shop on normal sch day,before 6pm will be detained by police....so i tried to walk around plaza singapura, trying to waste time...

It was then i came across this unique store... DAISO EVERYTHING $2. . .. haha all stuff $2, the rival of $1 store..... well the store is selling all japanese stuff.... cool man, got somekind like headband(usually worn by japanese student to show he's concentrating very hard", flower pot(japanese style), bug net, etc.. . . I went to bought 4 items only; sport Handglove, spectacle that is black in colour and has many tiny holes on its surface, headband ,and one strawberry soda..
From my experience just now, i can say that $2 store is more worth it than $1 store... cos the goods like umbrella, $2 store one is made of aluminium, while $1 store mainly are made out of mild steel(can rust one)....i did the test by putting the 'metal' thingy near my magnetic handphone pouch.... if it attract means that it can rust one....

also its a rare sight to view japan goods with my own eyes..... so today's quite meaningful to me =)

then,on my way back, something funny happen....
on the mrt as u all know, they play video which teaches us to be vigilant,in which that video shows a guy wearing hat carrying bulky item left the item behind and he get off the train rite....


When the train reached outram park station, a guy boarded the train, carrying big bulky black bag everyone on the train started to observe him.... then summore, he placed the
black bag onto the floor and kicked it under his seat... with that, all the passengers including me began to pay attention more to this guy, cos what he did, is the same as the act played by the video, whereby the guy in video also kicked the black bag under his seat...


Of course he was wondering what in the world has happened, cos all the passengers in that compartment of the train looked at him..... then maybe he realized that he grabbed his black bag, put it on his hip and unzip it to show to all of us.... CHEEEEH !!!! it was only few cans of energy drink and one newspaper.......funny sia, the SMRT advertisement really worked....

k dats all for today... ooops my aunt is here already... got to unlock the door for her...k cya NITEZ

=)

hihi long time no blog.... hahaz cos its the exam time, today final exam is officially declared over.... what we are waiting for is the result.....anyway, for the exam i'm not quite sure whether i can do well or not, so my aim is just to pass.....if it can get higher then it's better....

I went inside Ikea, then walked around looking for the 4 items... eventually, i lost my way there dunno where to find my item.... then asked the shop assistant
" uncle where can i find the 4 item?"
"go down to 1st floor"

i go down and began searching, but cannot find any of them, only light bulb......ask another shop assistant
"uncle where can i find fan?"
"we dun sell fan here?"
