hey guys. . .sorry haven't posted in awhile. anyways, can't wait to see ya'll tomorrow. . .must come k? so it's 1pm at dhoby ghaut right?

it's 1.30 in the afternoon now but i'm not in school coz i'm sick! damn. . .i hate this flu/fever/cough thing. . .rrrrr. just read the dolce vita love story as recommended by so many of you. . .hmm. . .typical love story kind where the girl dies. . . ironic isn't it? in the story it claims that only fairy-tale romances happen in movies. . .reality is reality. yet, it in itself is a typical movie-kind of romance story already right. . .(just think :a walk to remember) yeah. . .sad la. . .but this storyline used too many times already. . .although you still do tear and get emotional after reading/watching it. . .it's like everything becomes predictable. . .the element of surprise is no longer there. . . but guys!! you should pay attention to the story. . .what they wrote inside is very true about girls. . .the parts about you all being romantic and sweet. . .haha. IMPORTANT ok. . .i shall analyse it for you. . .
3 don'ts
-don't forget to be romantic
-don't be too honest
-don't be too stingy on the sugar of your speech

haha. . .find it quite weird how the last point it phrased though. . .lol. but yeah. . .it's quite true. . .being romantic is almost a prerequisite for every guy or relationship. . .lolz. 2nd, ignorance is bliss. . .so not revealing too much may be better sometimes. . .keyword: SOMETIMES only. 3rd, self-explanatory. . . haha.

kidding la. . .you guys in class already so sweet. . .aHhhhHh. . .haha. yup.miss you all loads can. . .

ling. . .you ponned volleyball match? haha. i didn't. . .you should have gone. . .it was crazy man! and emi. . .were you there??

i have econs test next week. . .shall we go out and study together? or should i say, attempt to study together. . helllppp. . .it's on demand and supply. . .and that's exactly the chapter that we ponned like mad back in cjc in the last week right? rRrr. . .regretting it now. . .coz i'm so lost. . .yet, i love econs. . .what kind of stupid irony is that right? and guess what. . .only now is SA starting on practical criticism. . .as in you know like. . .diction, imagery. . .etc. yeah. . .in cjc we covered that long ago. . .lolz. from what me other friends say, other jc's didn't give proper lit foundation in the 1st 3 months. . .compared to them ar. . .i think cjc's lit syllabus for us wasn't slack at all lor. . .in fact it was rather comprehensive. . .but hey. . .that's a good thing. . .i don't feel so lagging. . .haha.

anyway... really can't wait to see you all tomorrow. . .come come come!

ok, so i was telling selina and pee about that guy in the library - no it isn't anything good and i shan't say anything further cos a blog is somewhat like a public place =)

so anyways, today, the J1s got to be released at 12.10 to go to toa payoh sports hall to support our girls' volleyball team who are going to play against Anderson (looks at emi). It's the finals btw, but i contemplated whether i shld go support my fellow saints or i shouldn't.

in the end, i decided not to (considering the fact that i'm still in the library at this time), the match starts at 1.10 and i'm late already. decided to go for math tuition instead, cos there's a math test tml and i have absolutely no idea what's going on. so yah, first impressions count and i shan't let my math teacher (who's a major bitch) to look at me and say you don't have the attitude for math, go drop it. This is virtually her favourite line in my class

right now, dolly and alicia are watching movies in the library. i wanna watch sth too but all the tellys are taken up already.

anyways, see you kids on sat =)

don't worry, i'll get down to posting...
since this is now 1t07 + bing's blog, i'll post something about what happened today

see, i had an SEA essay due today, but due to a stroke of luck, my SEA teacher HAS GONE FOR RESERVIST, AHAHAHA, AND WILL BE GONE FOR 3 WEEKS. (Finally, i've found out why he's been running every morning --- IPPT)

anyways, went to watch RJC band concert today, they were fantastic. the last "song" was the Zaqaedar symphony, or something like that, (pronounced Za- kay- da) self composed by the student conducter, (actually it was a compilation of the best parts of alot of songs, but nonetheless, it was good). so, this concert ended at... 10, basically, and i hung around with a few of my friends at esplanade, waiting for my band friend to come out, then after that, he called me to say he wouldn't be out for quite a while, so we decided to go makan

raffles city has NOTHING at 10:30, everything is closed, except for starbucks/coffebean, so we went to citylink and ate breadtalk. got on an empty train after that, could see from one end to the other, and there was only like 1 other person, cool isn't it :) finally got home at 12, and now posting this entry.

all those who havn't read selina's blog, should go read it, theres this really really really diabetic sweet story, its incomplete though, and you can find the full one at http://trixieangel.tripod.com/story/story_DolceVita.htm (don't ask how i found this out, just go read it if you're interested.)

rambling on currently, but what can i say, kinda tired, not really coherant, so forgive me for my fragmented speech. anyways, ALL OF YOU BETTER GO ON SATURDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i wanna see everyone!!!

anyways, heres a few events we can all go for

AJC choir - support emi!!
ACJC band concert -- (this one not too sure, gotta ask imran, he says theres only like 10 ticks or somthing)
Chalet, during june hols. lets quickly decide and book one, before its too late, cos chalet bookins are very popular during june hols ( for obvious reasons) i mean, don't wanna be stuck with a 2 bed room again, trying to squeeze everyone inside, not very conducive :)

ok, thats all for this edition of Bing's report!! take care, good night, have a great day ahead of you!!!!!

why isn't anyone posting anymore except ling?

alrights, i have a 3 block break now and i'm practically rotting in the library. ms k isn't here and the librarian just scolded my classmate for playing solitaire. tsk tsk.

currently, i'm damn bored and i'm sitting between dolly and this girl who looked like she just bathe and her perfume is making me sneeze. yes, the aircon is damn cold but i'm really positive is the girl's perfume that's the culprit. gross.

alrights. i have no idea how i'm going to survive till 1130 - yes, that's when my break end. prolly i'll go look up econs notes and photocopy them later and get a milkybar for lectures later.

okok. i'll go be a good girl and do some research now.

Got kicked out of my Antony and Cleopatra class again. My second time

great. i missed the passing mark by a frigging half a mark. dammit. just because i mispelt Agrippa as Agripa and my teacher refuses to accept it and let me pass. Mind you, she isn't even ms k, who kindly allowed the passing mark to be brought down to see if anyone passed her Wuthering Heights quiz.

My classmate dolly said i was dumb by raising my hand when my teacher asked who failed, considering the fact that she didn't even requested the paper to be collected back. shucks, prolly i was being a little silly billy, but then all that morning assembly talk by mrs lim (our principal) got me a little woozy and i admitted that i failed.

great. i'm hell pissed. half a bloody frigging freaking mark. I'm so beginning to hate SA's lit policy as well as the literature teachers' attitude.

alrights i'm back. altogether now - yay!

again, i'm typing this post in the St Andrew's Library, which is donated by OCBC bank. sigh, poor school. ok anyway, today i skipped math lect (my 2nd time in a row), failed my Antony and Cleopatra quiz and got kicked out of class, amongst 3/4 of the class and ponned geog lect to cheer for my class for the inter-CG heats relay.

right now, some stupid event is going on and i can hear the screaming and shouting of the supporters, considering the fact that the library is a big enclosed room. gosh.

not to mention i'm also printing lit notes - i DO NOT WANT TO FAIL A & C AGAIN. making use of the oh-so-fantastic laser printer. hahaha. my friends and I practically exploited the laser printer by printing out the online text of A & C - and according to my classmate (who happens to be my neighbour) said "What did we pay school fees for? quite true.

alrightoes. i kinda finished printing my notes, as well as almost done with my post. my life today, quite interesting huh? just that i have PE tml. GROAN.

something i wanna share with the class:

Angels Fall First

An angelface smiles to me
Under a headline of tragedy
That smile used to give me warmth
Farewell - no words to say
Beside the cross on your grave
And those forever burning candles
Needed elsewhere
To remind us of the shortness of your time
Tears laid for them
Tears of love tears of fear
Bury my dreams dig up my sorrows
Oh Lord why
The angels fall first?
Not relieved by thoughts of Shangri-La
Nor enlightened by the lessons of Christ
I'll never understand the meaning of the right
Ignorance lead me into the light
Needed elsewhere...
Sing me a song
Of your beauty
Of your kingdom
Let the melodies of your harps
Caress those whom we still need
Yesterday we shook hands
My friend
Today a moonbeam lightens my path
My guardian.

I fell back into the cradle
of laughter and understanding
of innocence and tears
The swirling tresses of sun-hewn foam pulling
casting me into inexplicable warmth
blue-green bottle hues unfiltered
hoisting me up the mast, above
the mists.

Ripples rip through my lounging frame
purging
cleansing the gradieted soul
which was torn asunder at the feet
forlorn.

The rising peaks and crests east into
sing-song delicate melodious strains
murmurs of whispered words and sweeping strings
rubbing
my salt-encrusted face, flushed
and jaded.
Sunlight glints off the carefully crafted facets of a precious stone.

which you lob
into the eager embrace of the cradle
watching it skip
once
twice
sinks. running my toe through pale sands.

but if you reach down
deeper deeper
a chill gathers round your feet
kissing
where your soul used to be.

hmm, i was thinking, and i came up wit this: since we don't really post on this blog all that often, i'm gonna treat it as a kinda blog of mine, just to share my life with my fantabulistic class :) hope nobody minds, if they do, post a note or something, and i'll just remove it.

so, what happened today... hmm, had a boring day kinda, boring in the sense that it was long, 5:10 day today, compounded with the fact that i had make up lecture, for AP/GP until 6:45.... so after my makeup, i call jaimes, thinking that we were still going to the airport to send loony off, but then what happens? he tells me no one is going, how disappointing :( but anyways, i hop onto a cab, since sarah was still in town. then i reach town, but ling has dragged sarah off to some funny place, strange isn't it? :P so i ended up going for dinner with an old friend of mine, who happened to be in town, had steak at olio dome, slacked a while, reached home at 10:40...

something kinda funny happened during lecture though, i remember it even though i was half conscious. was during hist lect, and me, being me, dozed off. so i was kinda like rotating my head, cos i'd nod off, wake up, nod off, wake up... so i finally stayed asleep, and apparently, the lecturer told me friend "wake up the fan next to you" then i was kinda groggy, but i realsied everyone staring at me. what a strange word to use, "fan". i realised that i've been sleeping alot, cos the lectures are boring! and yeah.

hm, thats it for today i guess, the first of my posts about my life! for you guys to read!

ok guys. enough of those public apologies thingy cos i think we all forgave u kids. just don't do it next time lah =) haha what a way to end the plan of throwing me a surprise party =) but anyways, guess what? i'm typing this entry in SA's library. my first time using school comps k =)

said 1t07 at 2:49 PM

A PUBLIC APOLOGY

i have once again, made use of the childish side of me to bad use. the bing wei thing is all my fault and i take full responsibility for all the damage. i am no longer unprankable for i have been pranked by jaimes. i am truly sorry for the damage i have caused, both emotionally and physically (in the event of.). the conspiracy was done with a good intention in mind - to throw ling a surprise party, but we I did not think of the consequences or the case in which the plan backfires.

pranks are not to be done everyday. its like boy cry wolf. and furthermore, it loses its novelty. it must be done far apart, but elaborate, complicated conspiracies. certain guidelines have to be set. one of which is theft of personal belongings in the name of pranks. although they do make good pranks, the person may encounter very dire situations. eg. me when jaimes took my money and i dont want another person to be tangled up in such situations. furthermore, no more "leaving ____ on _____" pranks. this may cause emotional damage, as some people have encountered during the Bing Wei Incident. therefore, we want pranks to cause as little damage but at the same time, maximum fun. we dont want the victim to be laughed at. we want him/her to be laughed at AND laugh with us. pranking is a good thing. just like morphine, its good in moderation.

again, i would like to offer my sincerest apologies to the parties/people who have one way or another been affected mentally/emotionally/physically damaged or hurt by the Bing Wei Incident. i would like to reiterate that I bear full responsibility for the incident as it was my fault. please do not blame bing or mark for they are mere accomplices in this plot. thank you. - immy.

said 1t07 at 10:03 PM

Look kids, one more prank from u pple (u know who u are) and i can GUARANTEE that i will not talk to any of u for as long as i can. Don't you dare try.

great. hope that brought my point across, but we all forgive u, considering the fact u put up a blogger apology =) so it's not so bad.

ok, during lunch, i got sprayed by a jet of orange 100 plus by my classmate cos she was laughing with drink in her mouth. heh.

said 1t07 at 7:52 PM

apologies on my part too.. manda almost didnt talk to me anymore.. well i guess that pranks are to be played only once in a while.. and after doing too much of it.. it just loses all its fun and value.. on top of that.. it becomes such a chore.. something that u are force to keep secret.. something that i do with many people's things.. yet this one is not for real.. and it just stinks there..

to char and tok.. my apologies.. truely didnt want anything bad to come out.. i m truely sorry for what had happened.. the anxiety and the stress incured.. something not very nice and valueable.. i used to think.. mark what do u want to be remembered of.. and truely.. this is not one.. the pain that i give people.. so selfish.. so undesirable.. it just pricks me to think that i actually inflicted emotional pain to others.. its only for my self.. i m a sadist anyway.. and yes.. i truely hope for ur forgiveness.. and really hope that u will trust us again..

manda and chels.. yesh.. "dun believe anything that mark, immy and bing says at the same time.. 90% of the time it is not true.." well all i can say is that it will be hard to trust pranksters anymore.. it will take some time for bing im and myself to gain this trust back from you people.. i know the consequences.. and i know the agony of being fooled and kept in the dark.. the confusion that this brings.. i sincerely apologise..

in this i put my greatest remose.. in this i place in apologise.. in this i pray for ur forgiveness unto me.. ur trust back to us.. and hope that this will not tranish this friendship that we have..

a friendship is based on trust.. for it is the foundation of any..
emnity comes with hatred and distrust.. truely falsehood brings down every..

learnt my mistake that in everything.. do not play with other's trust.. it is just too dirty.. i'm sorry...

apologise

Today, something really bad happened. I recieved an sms from my dear fellow prankster, and basically it said "bing, you're going to toronto to study in trinity college. you are leaving on may 16th" so i thought to myself, sounds good, i think i'll do this prank.

few hours later, i felt really bad, am still feeling bad, probably will feel bad for a while. i realised that what i did was horrible, i toyed with people's feelings, people whom i am really close to. many of you felt sad, some of you shed tears for me. knowing this pains me even more. it is akin to a dagger, slicing my heart into pieces, like driving a nail into my own chest. if i could go back in time, i wouldn't have done this, but its too late, i already have.

This is truly a prank gone wrong, a prank that was never right to start with. a prank that turned from fun, to pain.

I am really sorry, to those i hurt, i am really sorry for doing what i did.

you don't have to forgive me, but it would ease my pain if you did.....

hello all.

some of my memories of t7 just aren't very good, for me. in some way, things arent the same when i meet up with yu all. a lot of truths and my stupid mistakes hit me in the face. its hard for me to.. be happy. although of cos in contrast with being in ac im obviously far happier. that day with yu all was super fun! though i only went for one day. but.. there were also things that i couldn't be happy about. i'm not a good person. i'm sorry. its just.. me.

i miss all of you, all that i took for granted. i cannot bear being in ac. i don't like my class at all(except for chelsa haha). i don't like any of the guys(not really anyway). i guess my class is okay but it cant compare to t7 at all. and it will always be the measure of that perfect class. and i have no clothes to wear anymore im pissed.

shoutout to bingwei- yu know hes in rj now and really i think he has too much free time he keeps wanting to meet up with everyone right? and he HAS been spending a lot of time with the cj people, i shouldn't think otherwise.

to the beautifulbirthdaygirls. yu look so pretty when you're happyyy :) happybelatedbirthday. i think yu had celebrations planned for yu that were absolutely mindblowing. imranmarkbingwei whoever rockkk. and thank you both- just for being you. being everyone's joyandlaughter(think PPG- powerpuffgirls). (bubbles, she's the joy and the laughter) sometimes i feel so.. lacking :)

thanks to queen ling for doing up the blog, though it seems a little narcissistic hahahaha anyway i love the pinks. rockssss. i think my stuf totally reflects the way i am now. depressing graysbluespurplesblack. sad sad life. i have no mood to write today. but i really just wanted to say HI to you all. and having no t7 is something i think ive just been trying not to think about. the way i just push a painful loss to the back of my mind and stubbornly refuse to acknowledge it.

i tell yu im just not in a writing mood today. i cannot do this.

hello my dear pals!!!! sorry I haven't been online for some time..I just read all the new entries and there are so many new ones! or maybe it's 'cause I haven't been reading it regularly. sorry school's keeping me busy busy! i miss all of you guys and the class! and there's the school, mr tan and just everything! im just so happy and contented that God gave me all of you. thanks a lot for everything guys!! especially the birthday celebrations..i think it's the best birthday I've had in a long time! just felt so happy on that day..I've always wanted a bithday like that seriously and you guys gave it to manda and i! i felt so lucky and blessed and like manda said..the happiest girl on earth! haha yeps really thankful for all your efforts it was wonderful wonderful and marvellous. i can't say enough of thank yous. love yall =)

hmm anyway i agree we should move on. i mean move on and make new friends but not forget our current ones! like your secondary sch friends and Tseven!! haha yeps. we'll just try and make it an effort to keep in touch with everyone k? i know it's kinda hard to organise a gathering and have everyone meet up together. plus, now all of us are slowing settling into our new schools and we have all the sch work + projects coming in so everyone might be too busy to meet. oh well! we'll still meet up once in a while. june hols are coming!! let's have a party!! haha so exciting and fun. how about it? =) we can have a theme party or costume party!! hahaha

anyway moving on... today I had PE. and i almost killed myself. we all thought we were gonna take height and weight but guess what?! in the end, we had to run a trial 2.4km!! i wasn't even mentally prepared for that traumatic experience. even worse, we had to run 2.4km under 17 minutes(which means a silver) or else we gotta run another bonus run..what kinda bonus is that?! haha yeah im whining and bitching please bear with me! anyway i completed at 17mins on the dot!! yay right? but then our pe teacher kindly informed me that since my bday's over and I'm seventeen, i have to run faster than 17mins to get a silver. i almost fainted. felt so drained after that but it felt kinda good after a while..but i ate and piled back whatever i lost! haha i think JCs shouldn't allow sweet stalls in the canteen seriously. it's tempting.

ohh manda my group has only one guy too!!! my project work group has 4 ppl..christina, michelle, wei kong and i. anyway we have 8 guys and all of them except three are SLACKERS! and i got wei kong and he's super slack haha! think most guys are slack la. anyway we drew lots and i had to be secretary?! thank goodness im not the group leader. anyway the teacher said u gotta take down the minutes of each meeting and i was like "oh no so much work". then wei kong said "oh don't worry, we won't have any meetings" haha and our teacher heard! seems a lot of work though..JC is tough man!! although im still currently in slacking mode. i hope i can handle it. guys work hard k!! let's handle JC and poly together!! =) yay and tseven go marching on and on and on.

oh my I've rambled on for quite a bit.. anyway tell me about your lives guys!! about school and the cute guys and girls! haha keep us all updated on what's happening with you and all :) oh ohh i like guitar guy! hmm yep. he's tall, skinny, plays the guitar(!!!!!), sings real well and well he has this boyish cute charm. aaaah. i heard him sing and play solo!!! and i see him on stage everyday 'cause the choir sings the anthem everyday up on stage. hmm actually you know what...AC guys are all good looking in a way! seriously.. they all have above average looks, well majority of them. it's just this sudden realisation. hmm

oh no i think im too talkative. wait im too typative..i type so much! it's just today..keep typing on and on. my friend and i realised that the world is very small. everyone seems to know everyone else! like you're linked to each other in some way or the other? quite cool right! it's like friendster. your friend knows your friend etc. all the mutual friends. anyway im fascinated! it's like "hey you know ____" she's my friend too!" how cool. haha random stuff. i think i better go before I continue crapping! yup you guys probably stopped reading halfway already la hahaha sorry i type too much! well take care guys! have fun in school! i love all of you! hey the next time we meet up we should all give everyone else a hug! and we can do carwash! it's this thing/process/whatever where you all line up in a row and you face a person. and u spend one minute telling that person what you like about them and all and vice versa. and then after that you move on to the next person! i did that in some camp la. okay yes im really gonna go off now. cya all dearies! :)

this is such a great idea. this blog, i mean. where else can we pour our emotions out and vent our frustrations. . .not only that, but receive advice and support after doing so.(through tagboard msges or new posts) hmm. . .so proud to be part of this efficient, supportive and family-orientated class. . .hehe. was just thinking. . .i miss being the math rep!! for one, i'm not taking math now, so there's no hope of me ever becoming one again. . .and somehow my class is very chauvanistic. . .the guys get all the class com positions. . .(perhaps they're just trying to be nice and save us all the trouble?) oh and do you guys know. . .it's so cool! i have the head prefect of gan eng seng sec in my class? and the vice head of st margarets in my class? so i'm not very worried about class admin stuff and all. . .at least i'm quite assured in this area. . .with these responsible people in class. . .hehe. this is called talent pool. . .

so how? have you guys gotten your groups for project work? i have. . .and mine's a group of 5. . .there are 4 girls. . .1 guy. and guess who is he??? the head prefect!!!! hahahaha. am i lucky or lucky? no la. . .i'm not taking advantage of free labour. . .but more like i'll learn a thing or two about being a more responsible team member and individual too. now now. . .this is being smart - tapping on others' expertise and talents. in today's world where technology advances at such a frightening pace, we need to learn from one another and live as one united people. . .team work!
Together
Everyone
Achieves

yup!interdependent learn. . .not each his own.

lalala. obviously i have no idea what i am talking about.

hahaha. . .back to more serious matters of (my) heart, as much as char and jaimes miss me and chel's laughter, i miss laughing with you all too. laughing takes on a whole new meaning here in sa. i don't laugh at the jokes i find funny anymore. i laugh just for the fact it is a joke. i don't have the privilege to choose which jokes are better jokes than others because here, people don't really have the same insane mind as we who bring meaning to the word :mental.

i have made an attempt today to talk about my life in sajc and so should all of you. i apologise for my incoherence between paragraphs and topics; between words, perhaps. ha.

anyway, love ya all still!

i sound like a bastard here....

well i guess that aft 1 am is called emofull period.. a rush of emotions thru ur skull that makes u wanna cry even more.. even aft u have spoken to someone and u are on cloud nine.. going back to what it seems to be the black room of `t07 here.. where emotions are poured.. well i guess i can do a lit paper and get full marks or someone thing like that.. yup.. well its just that... and many a times i'd like to pour it out too.. the tears.. the sadness thats within.. the stink of seperation.. the brink of emotional collaspe.. the hope that we can all gather and cry our hearts out... if u can talk about how much u miss a class and cry.. i think i can do better.. just the mere thought of `t07 has such great impact on my emotion being that it breaks me.. it tears me apart.. and i havent had such a great feeling in a long while.. well this is not the first time i m doing this infront of my com on this page..

i know that we will meet up.. but are we sure that we can go to that extend.. i often qn myself.. then i try to lie to myself saying that yes if we make it a pt to meet up once a mnth we can just do it.. it just all a lie.. i can definately assure u that no matter how much we try we still have to be like bing.. expend our circle of friends.. go out with ur classmates be it SA AC AJ NJ CJ or what-so-ever place that we are in.. on top of that.. exams.. CCAs.. and what more.. in just a blink of an eye.. guys will already be serving their NS and some will be overseas studying.. we will not have the luxuary of time to do such a gathering.. yet again.. we shall say.. if we wanna meet up we will.. then wont it be straining our relationship with other people.. what about my other friends? our secondary mates? those that have gone thru our 4 years with us.. and not 3 mnths.. wads the comparison in that? are we being fair to them? our relatives? something that its in our blood... as they say blood IS thicker than water.. are we letting them down? and our other commitments... so to what extend do we have to move in and look into it... yes come what may u have a pool of friends that u have for a constant support and so on and so forth.. yes and i know as many of u are reading this.. u may be even cursing at my father and mother..

but have u all considered this phrase: "move on.."? if we stay where we are and continue.. we would only be deprivin ourselves of a greater future.. of something that maybe far greater than `t07.. something that u will never expect to come.. or u can stay in and stop here.. reminsing what we had.. allow the past to keep us back and never move on in life.. then all u can tell ur children and grandchildren are stories of `t07.. and thats it.. move on my fellow friends.. this friendship will always be there... and there's a whole world out there waiting for u.. its just an emphasis on the pt that i made earlier.. start to look ahead.. and well this friendship will.. too.. be part of ur future.. but as it slowly moves on.. it will one day slowly slide away.. but still be sure that we are always be there.. for u.. to support u and to guide u.. to give u advise.. and to cry with you.. wellbe sure i m always here for anyone of u.. and yes.. we i would love to hav this friendship going.. but its time to move on for many of us.. dun let this stop u... open ur eyes and see a view of the world out there...

said 1t07 at 2:10 AM

first i'd like to thank bing for placing things back to perspective.. i have to agree with bing.. and like everyone to think about what bing actually did say.. yes we may be very close here.. but is this whole relationship actually staggering our own growth in our circle of friends? are we just thinkin of these nice people here and stop spreading the flame and passion that this class has given you? this may be the perfect class so far u have come into contact with.. and with a heart full of expectations of how the class that u are in would be.. a class that should be measured up to `t07.. somthing that is the best so far.. but then expectations will only bring about disappointment.. and thats what exactly u guys are feeling.. how boring this and that is.. how boring even stay at home can be.. and all that... well i guess that u all have placed too much expectations into things lah..

its a matter of how u view things.. then u can love or hate it... half empty and half full.. hmmm... yes... thats life.. u may think that i have no rights to say it.. i have no sch.. bleh bleh.. well not really.. working in a all volunteer environment is even more stressful and more undesirable than what u think.. its like people that u oversee are ur boss.. its stilll how anyone looks at the situation that u are in..

char i understand what u mean.. the whole issue of having a new name and all that.. its all ingrained into each of us.. the identity that we have and gained in 1t07.. allowin us to be ourselves.. allowing us the fun that we can get in everything that we do.. but so.. we can let that spirit and friendlyness spread.. and let everyone know that it is possible to make another `t07 04.. first 3 mnths..

love u guys..

God Bless

NJC.
a place where i am obliged to feel at home at.but no matter how good the school will turn out to be;no matter how good the frenz i make,i still wanna sae tt nth beats 1t07.the trust.the bond.tho we may be ordinary pple,we haf come thus far and together,we're an extraordinary class.

i would never forget how we came together first as strangers,and became so bonded tt we now claim to be the best class ever,which i do not disagree to.in the light of all the touchy-feely postings mine may seem overshadowed,or simply blend into the crowd..still if u would spend a few moments reading this blog entry-which u already had-u would find out that im actually revealing to u how i truly feel deep within.no matter how much we miss each other i know we will always exist as a body of friends.never forget ur existence,pple,as a tee-sevener.

lastly i would like to remind all those who haven been coming back for gatherings on a regular basis-altho ure not obliged to come back;and altho u may haf reasons for not doing so...blahblahblah,wadever the case-do remember that we will always welcome u to our gatherings.we will never forget ani1 of the 25 of u(s),and do understand how much we r shakened by ur constant absence!thus relieve us of this sinking feeling and try to make it for any gathering...esp if u got the time.

with all the love in the world

its now 3 weeks into the new school term- post 1st three months period, but even now when teachers ask what class im in or when 1t09 is called, it still takes me 3 or 4 seconds to realise that this is my class & that im no longer in 1t07 anymore. the first week i was in 1t9, it just felt weird...just wrong, & so unnatural. & almost all of the t7 pple in t9 now were having the respond-when-1t07-is-called problem. It was really really quiet- no more amanda & chelsa's lauging & mark's too...junyi wasnt the htc anymore & there wasnt bingwei to stall mr kwan & debate with him, among other things. & for the longest time i was down in the dumps because of it, it was an overwhelming sense of emptiness.

i miss all you guys. but alas, as much as i hate to, weve gotta carry on as best as we can & make the most of what we have now, no matter where we are be it sajc, rjc, acjc, cj, nj. because really, we cant be stuck forever wishing that we were all together again (although i really wish we were). but the truth is, therell never be another t7(as we know & love it). yeah reality sure is harsh, but theres comfort in knowing that we'll always be 1t07 & friends & as manda said, friends made at cj are friends for life.

What the hell*edit* next time please don't use vulgarities*edit*??????????I juz read everyone's entries and everyone is lamenting on how much your missed the old 1T07 class and the fun we had......Sorry guys but i have to say this,i miss the old class alot too and certain ppl(more than one) *edited*(duh, but you guys all know who i really miss) *edited* in the class especially but the fact of the matter is that half of us chose to go to different JCs because of various reasons!So wasnt it your choice not to stick with the old class??*edit*(i'm saying this cos i have many issues i wish to address, i blame it on my scarred childhood.)*edit* Plus the first three months of CJC were particularly enjoyable and memorable not only because we got the best ppl we could ever have in our class but also cause we could afford to go orchard everydayedit*( it was also cos we spent quality time!!, not just because we could go orchard everyday!) *edit*!!!!!We forged strong bonds *edit*(with certain individuals i will not name)*edit* during our time in orchard,half of it was playing practically jokes and doing dumb stuff together. *edit* (the dumb stuff was fun! cos i can understand!!!!) *edit*

Basically what i am trying to say is that why spend our time reminicising*edit*(yay! i used a big word!!)*edit* abt the past???Its not like we wont be able to meet each other again,we still can see each other anytime its juz a phone call away!I know how everyone feels, i feel the same way too,its like sometimes I juz turn around half expecting to see chelsa and amanda laughing and chatting......It hurts...but no matter how much the pain is we got to move on cause we cant spend our life wasting away and thinking abt the past!All those in AJC*edit*(especially the one in AJC)*edit*,RJC,ACJC and SAJC,should all listen to Bing Wei and actually try to go out with your new class and forge new bonds...Dont worry abt losing contact with us because as Amanda said "Friends made in CJC are friends for life!" our bonds with one another are forever!!!!!!!!!!!!

One thing i learned is that the friends you make in CJC dont mind you for who you are and that no matter what they will always be there for you.Your accepted me(with alot of teasing and insults) even though i was Bengish and vulgar.......Bing Wei!THANKS!For saving me in sentosa and a huge thanks to everyone else for everything.Your have made my first three months experience both exhilarating and memorable! *edit* (you know who you are) *edit* And my apologises to anyone who i may have offended in the course of our CJC life...

So i guess what i am trying to say now is that no matter what happens,just give me a call *edit* (GHOSTBUSTERS!!) *edit* and i will come immediately to help you in any way i can!!!Friends forever!!!!!!!!!!

12:25am now, i should be sleeping, but instead i'm sitting here, thinking. for most of us, school has started, going in full swing. (except for mark, pee and belle... lucky!) for example, i am currently facing the dreadful task of finishing close to 10 tutorials, along with essay plans, discussion questions, and other stuff... but then again, to quote mark "RJC what".
theres one thing i've realised recently, while reading all the posts. we seem to keep wanting to go back to the past, we wanna live in the past of the 1st 3 months. even i am guilty of that. missing the class is not a bad thing, but i'm really hoping it doesn't affect any of us in a detrimental way. let us put the past in the past, live for the future. think of it this way: the future means having more opportunities, having more time, to meet each other, and hence having more memories for the further future. sounds cliche i know, but thats what i'm trying to do now.
i remember talking to huijia, we were both moaning about how much we missed the class, almost to the point of tears in fact. but then, we promised each other that we would make the best of our times in NJ/RJ. seriously speaking, i constantly think of the class, i go to school in the morning, hoping that i'll stop at CJ, but knowing that i'll stop at RJ. What am i writing this for? well, now i'm going to tell you guys.

first off, i'm going to apologise. for what you ask? i'm going to apologise for the fact, that i'm not going to think of you guys as much now. please forgive me, but its really a choice i don't want to have to make. while you guys have taken up 90% of my heart ( the other 10% going to various people) i really cannot continue like this, constantly thinking of the class whenever i'm doing anything. i'm also going to apologise for not being able to spend as much time with you guys, hope you understand. in the past 2 weeks, i've spent basically every weekday afternoon with t07, ditching my RJ class. while i really really really really really enjoyed this time, i have to face the facts: i'm going to spend the next 1+3/4 years of my life with my RJ class, hence i'm going to have to bond with them. bonding takes time, as we all know, hence the time spent with them, will result in less time being spent with you guys. really really really sorry about this.

this does not mean that i'm gonna stop seeing you guys, it just means i won't be there every day of the week, so people, please bear with the lack of humor+lameness+harmless suanning, i'm sure imran+hari will serve you guys well :). it just means i'm going to see you guys less, so don't worry, bing will still be there. i mean, i'm wearing the CJ shirt even now, at this late hour. in fact, the CJ shirt has been something i've been wearing to sleep. this shows one thing - CJ has become so comfortable to me, so intimate, that i sleep with it every night! :P

also, jaimes was telling me about how "boring" the class is now, since like people are seated differntly, and some people arn't in the class anymore. i think that one of the obstacles, is that all of us are comparing our current classes with t07, which is as i said in my last entry, "simply the best". this is unfair to our new classes, i mean, how can something beat the best? i'm starting to sound very pompous and all, but i'm just saying this from a very pragmatic point of view. let us all promise each other that we will not compare our current classes with t07. let us all look for a new beginning, let us all share with each other the stories of school, of life, of ccas. let us bring the t07 spirit around. with the t07 spirit, anything can be done, and making friends shouldn't be a difficulty :). for this, i find that the CJ school song fits well, it fits so well in describing t07, it fits so well in describing the school. so let us all sing this song as a class, as members of t07, as members(past and present) of CJC, as individuals, but as individuals who share that one strong bond called friendship.

"We are heirs of a glorius kingdom
Wf treasures past ages have bestowed.
Of the truth wisdom love and peace,
We rejoice to proclaim and uphold.
Live in truth, live in faith and love,
Let our light spread and brighten the night,
Let our flame warm all hearts and unite."

To the past, present, and future!!

first of all, i would like to say that it is pretty cool how everyone is blogging in formal language here. guess it puts more emphasis on the mood everyone is feeling? yeah, it's kinda cool anyway.

reading all your entries, i find myself going "yes yes yes!" in response to every other sentence coz that's how i'm feeling, too. today's sunday. but it feels different from all the other sundays i've had in this past 3 months. for the past 12 sundays or so, i've found myself wishing time would flash past; so that monday would come again(i.e: go back to school and see everyone again). monday blues was never a problem. on certain occasions, i would even unconsciously sing the barney song i wish there were school everyday. . .and my brother would stare at me in disbelief. but yes, that was how i truly wanted it to be. i loved school. i loved cjc(still do, btw). i loved being with all you guys. i knew in my heart T07 was a very very special class. i had come with low, or no expectations at all of cjc. but this experience has blown me away. a class i could bond with, identify with. people who in this short 3 months have seen me laugh, go crazy, and cry even. the words of the sales lady on the street still echo in my mind in cjc, you make friends for LIFE. well guys, i hope this bond we have established will last us a lifetime. so what if it's only been 4 months? every friendship formed on the face of this earth started with a day, too. only the very special, bonded ones go on and last forever. i sincerely hope ours is that kind.

thanks! is the next thing i want to say to you all. i've just had 2 days of birthday celebration with you all and i can say now that i'm just about the happiest girl alive. that was all i could ask for. . .bonding and fellowship time with all you people. . .it's just. . .WOW. thanks thanks thanks for ALL the surprises. i loved it all. (you know i'm a sucker for surprises right!) hehe. you all are so sweet! don't worry peeps, this will go down memory lane. 10 years down the road, i want us all to be still as close so i can bring my kids out to meet all you guys coz it's just such a miracle that the mighty one above let our paths cross. i'm so so so grateful. =)

bedtime's soon. but i'm not looking forward to tomorrow. i'm scared - like emilia and ling. sure, i have friends. yeah, i have a pretty cool class. but no, none of them are like anyone of you. not even close. i'm not settled into the sajc life yet. i feel intimidated too as i walk in the foyer. school seems scary, cold. and i've never felt this way since lower primary. i feel vulnerable sometimes. or rather, most of the time. i guess i have to admit, the fear i have is of not being able to ever settle down here in sa. i try very hard each day, to make sajc seem as much like home to me as possible. try psycho myself into thinking c'mon amanda! this is just like cjc! but there's no denying the fact that i'm shivering inside. i don't feel the warmth of the saint spirit yet. familiar faces? what's that? the only thing i hear of from the disappearing familiar faces is i'm going back to cjc. and again i'm left alone, to battle surging emotions to run back to comfort zone. then the sickening thought comes to mind; the promise i made to myself - that i'll persevere and stay. with that, i fake renewed courage; knowing deep down however, that i'm just a step closer to insanity.

after reading emi's entry, i myself can really identify with her, and that i can't help but feeling really touched.

St Andrew's, a dream school to many. the feeling u get when one walks into SA is totally different when one walks into CJ. The people are different too, which is why manda and I have to meet up early in the morning at the foyer before going for assembly together.

You see that the plaza is filled with cliques, and that many say that SA is really fun. Yes, cos that only applies for the 1st intakers - for many 2nd intakers like manda and I, we don't share the privilege like the others, saying "hi" to our friends along the corridors, or in the cafe.

Gone are those days in CJ, where we feel very much at home - many of our class bonding sessions are in our homeroom - 1T07, but in SA, what homeroom? We're like nomads - moving from place to place with our bags, without a fixed ground for class bonding, in fact, the only place for "serious class bonding" is in the cafe. But to no avail.

Saying "hi" to someone in SA doesn't guarantee a smile, or a return greeting - a lesson that i've learnt over and over again. All these incidents can't help but cause me to remember the pple in cj, who are always friendly, regardless of whether they know you or not.

Happy Birthday Chelly and Manda.

I'm sure the class spent quality time on fri and sat all together again - with the inclusion of daniel =) 1T07 is definitely a comfort zone which i've never be able to abandon, not in a long time.
