Canoeing is fun!
More fun than dragonboating in my opinion =)
And we capsized the canoes on purpose!
That's enough of fun for the week, coz I've got the Individual Proposal, GP news article, Maths Assignment and Biology BC2 (SPA stuff to read up) to do...
Also on the revision list is Maths Trigo for the Maths lecture test this week...
Gotta get serious >=)

Sports Day
Yay! The 12 of us from 05S07 who ran for the 12x100 metres got a bronze medal each! At least we have a present to bring back home with us! Congrats and well done to everyone who ran the race! This is the first time I have ever taken part in a Sports Day event so I was very very happy (even though I probably looked tired or in a daze back then after the results are announced).
Also went bowling with 5 classmates, am getting the hang of it even though I fared as one of the lousiest in the 2 games. Hope to play a better game next time =) We also had fun playing around with the "Edit Name" functions on the machine...one name became Jessica, later Uncle, and another Ah Long. Haha. (Mine became Puddy and then Pudding).
Also, MJC happened to have Sports Day today also. They had lessons in the morning and had Sports Day in the afternoon. I'm happy enough that there aren't any lessons today (or we will be tired out too much).
The only question is: who copied who?

My life is changing
I dream of a lot of things...
I was the silent dreamer.
Back then in Secondary School, I'm just a nobody.
Just some girl who's at the last 3 or 4 of the class every major examinations.
Just some girl who keep failing Higher Chinese.
Just some girl who neglected her studies after being depressed and indulged in computer games, forums and websites.
Just some girl who is a misfit in her class of smart people.
Just some girl who the teachers probably never want to care about.
Just some girl who is a plain member of the Chinese Orchestra, some boring CCA in the school where there is a lack of guys.
Just some girl who the teachers think that do not have the potential to be a leader.
Just some girl who never talks unless the teachers prompts her to in class.
Just some girl who is ill-informed about the challenges and how CCA points work in Secondary School.
Just some girl appearing as either emotionless or sad most of the time.
The only thing to be proud of was that I was in an SAP school, in Special Stream.
Yet I felt dismay as word goes round that other neighbourhood schools appeared to improve quickly.
The high moral standards just seemed to keep dropping year after year.
What just happened to my school?
Things are now different.
I started contemplating about the past in MI and TPJC, two schools I had never expected myself to be part of in the first place.
Two schools where I found happiness.
The sleeping dragon in me has been half-awoken from slumber.
I'm now a somebody who tries her best to keep up with lessons and not neglect them no matter how hard it is to understand them.
Somebody who wants to be proud of her school.
Somebody who wants to be part of the action and not wait for things to happen.
Somebody who's running for Student Council.
Somebody who don't want to be quiet all the time.
Somebody who wants to make the best out of the 2 years she had been granted, to repent for the lousy performance in her previous school.
Somebody who wants to be part of the class.
Somebody who is starting to appreciate Chinese lessons the way it should have been for her.
Yet something I know hasn't changed inside me.
I'm still pretty much the dreamer as always.
But now one who wants to turn dreams into reality.

Stupid Me
I am so darn stupid.
I gave away our school identity by wearing a green PE Tee on the day of the Dragonboat outing.
(Apparently AS' father was there for Dragonboating also. Who is AS? You have gotta guess coz I'm not telling.)
TPJC Chinese Orchestra obtained Silver for SYF (if the info in the forums is correct). Not bad at all, since they didn't have any Pipa players to start with.
AHS CO wasn't short of any group of instruments 3 years back, yet we got only a bronze. This year however, we got a Silver.
I'm loving the life at TPJC. Studies are less stressful and Chinese lessons are slow-paced (At least nobody seemed to look down on me). No regrets taking Higher Chinese though, it is an insurance for the University admissions (I got D7).
Although I have my grudges against my own Secondary school in the past, somewhat I'm starting to miss the good times there. I have best friends who I can really depend on even though we are seperated by a classroom and two walls. My CCA had fun times.
Now I am wondering what happened to my ex-class people and ex-CCA friends, even though I didn't really like some people in my previous class. Maybe I will go message them on MSN one day.

Class outing #2
Went dragonboating instead of canoeing.
Lots of insane stuff happened today.
btw, to anyone who have suffered as a result of my stupid ideas or suggestions, I'm very very very sorry for it...been feeling guilty about it for the rest of today X_X
We have both sun and rain today...what a great deal :-/
Yet it was a very fun day for us...to the rest who didn't come along, wish you were there.
[Note: The last part of the outing is not worth reading, seriously.]
The first part of today:
-We sang kiddy songs...(Row row row your boat/London Bridge is falling down)
