dear all,

hui chong will be officially returning from the land of the rising sun to the land that the sun never sets on the 10th of Feb

now note that down in your calendar!

hey babes.

merry christmas!

it's the festive season. and i'm spending it with nic and shun! yays! we had a chocolate fondue and boy do we miss u guys! so much! so much! we'll have had a lot more fun,yelling christmas carols, pulling crackers, popping poppers, recalling silly band storiess, humming band songss!

i hope everyone's doing fine, and feeling happy and bubbly this xmas! i don't really like a london xmas i've decied (maybe i'll change my mind after boxing day sales tmr) but in general it's cold and pretty miserable. i love the christmas lights, but i don'nt know i haven't seen any fantastic christmas light ups like in edinburgh or in manchester.. but hyde park is gorgeous as is st james' park. and we heard a brass band and a drum and fife band marching out from buckingham palace.. mann if only u guys were here.. what fun we'd have!

miss u lottss..

hello my darling darlings :)

I haven't been here in a while, and when I read xin's, chong's, tm's, px's and shun's entry, I just want to give you all a BIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG HUG because I really really do miss you all so much and just wanted to say that I love you all a lot.

I agree with px.. life really was so wonderful last time when things were simpler when we had the corridor, the band room. I think I was talking to tm one time, and we were saying that we should all just live in one big house with 18 rooms or 9 rooms where we can share rooms and just live together and it would work out because we all know each others' idiosyncrasies.. however it's spelt.. my spelling sucks.. and we'd all be happy even though we'll definitely have our squabbles :D and life would be so perfect.

hc.. -BIG BIG BIG BIG HUG- dont' be sad my dear. We shall provide you with scotch tape/cement/glue/double sided tape to make sure your heart doesn't break ok? muacks.

I miss the times mugging together with you guys. not the mugging itself.. but mugging with you all around. whether it was at a library, in rj not just at a levels.. but even like in secondary school. ok maybe we didnt' really study then.. which is why secondary school was so perfect :D and yes shun, i remember that deepavali you came to rj and we all went mad.. i miss going mad with you all

i was listening to this song.. and i thought the lyrics were really nice. they go something like:

don't you ever wish you were someone else..

you were meant to be the way you are exactly

don't you ever say you don't like the way you are..

when you learn to love yourself, you're better off by far

and I hope you always stay the same, because there's nothing about you I would change

aww i miss you all a lot. so here's a big hug from me. :) -BIG HUG-

oh man haha although the blog is blue somehow i feel a very bad vibe behind it! hey you guys please hang on tight!

when i saw the px entry i was like woah. especially since it's the first time after a very long while since i last came and read everything carefully. then i proceeded to read some more and woah! haha we need some form of relief!

i dun really know how though.

but hc and xy and px! yeah hc dun break your heart too early else you'll have no more hearts to break for your boyfriend or something. and xinyi! haha i really haven't spoken to you for very long cos i hadn't the time to go msn. but i hope that your ir course isn't as crazy as mine. i'm getting tired of all the pessimistic realists and the never-ending struggle between states for security in a world of anarchy and what not.

haha yeah tm i miss studying with you guys! haha i still remember last deepavali when i went over to rj to study with you guys, and clarine was reading that shakespeare play that i suddenly can't remember for the life of me. i think i was doing stats and hy was doing physics and i cant remember what xinyi and paula and iris was doing. px was hiding in a corner somewhere in rj and suddenly appeared around 4 plus (man speaking of which i miss seeing the evening sun at 4). yeah tm was doing geog. haha i can't decide if i miss those mugging days or not. i mean i dun think i want to

hey all. havent been here in a few days and you've all blogged so much! ehh my dear ssata and ssato. you all have tagged so much you pushed everything down.. now i dunno wad you all were talking about before this -.- gahhs.

heh. i've finished with exams. and i think we're all suddenly so nostalgic cause studying alone doesnt feel gd, at all.. oh wells, at least i did when i was cooped up in my room and didnt have gd company.

jiayou everybody!

sigh. xin and chong, dun feel so sad leh. one sem has whizzed by (almost).. just a lil more patience ok. then you'll be back! and we'll set aside time for fun! cheer up! -hugs-

bahhs. i wanna give you two a real hug (now yapzhun dun snigger ok) but yeah. cannot. sometimes it was those hugs tt made a terrible sch day better. now even if i wanna give a hug, there's no one tt i wanna hug spontaneously. you guys must be honoured ok. hahaha!

HANG IN THERE PEOPLE! you'll make it through!

i just suddenly wanted to write this. i really miss all of you...

i hope it doesnt sound like im saying it just because everyone is saying it
and that it's so easy to just type it out without feeling it
but it's true
i really really miss everyone.

and with the added distance and everything...

and xin is right
i just want to say what i want to say
even though people can speak and understand english as well as i do
it just doesnt feel right

theres nothing that can replace you all...

God help me make it back in time to see you all before my heart breaks

heyy everybodyyss i miss u guys lotss. i was listening to a josh groban song that clarine sent me and suddenly i miss u guy so much so much!! i miss the comfort zone tm was talking about, how we could all just sit together, talk, scream, or just stay silent and yet be equally comfortable with each other, just because we love each other so much. i miss band lots. i miss ponning school to go to the band room, instead of ponning school cos it gets dark at 4pm and cos it's freaking cold and rainy to stay out. i miss practising my clarinet, fingers getting tangled up, tongue getting tangled up.. i miss giving anyone i feel like a great big hug and saying jsut anything i want, knowing that i won't face a violent confrontatino just cos the people here don't think the same o_O i hate filtering the things i want to say. and i love u guyss..

take care kk.. i think ur exams will finish before mine starts =) andd err paula!! i've been eating so much chocciess, everyone says i'm fatter o_O erps. but i can't resist it.. haha!!

hello everybody :)
haha i've emerged from hibernation! haah i'm halfway through a take-home essay examination about the Singapore Legal System. and sadistically i'm finding it quite interesting :p i have 3 essays to write and i've currently finished 2 outlines so i'm taking a break :) (excuses)
anyway! i have a confession to make. i've been eating loads and loads of chocolate :( like seriously truckloads!! cadbury is my best friend now :( maybe next time you all will meet a gigantipaula. but no worries! i'm eating regularly, breakfast, lunch and dinner (and no, they do not consist of chocolate :p). so this is why i think i am going to ballooon up in size after the exams. how :( haha. i still must try to maintain weight so that we can go for all those food binges together! cheesecake! waffle! icecream! chocolate fondue! food in general!
ooh i can't wait for the exams to end :) let's organise batch outing ya?
okay now back to my exam, (and slamming -ahem- p.ap)

jiayou everybody :) -hugs-
we'll make it!
and take care, don't be like me, eat properly :p

p.s. tm, i do think i drink more water than you.. maybe 3 litres? but that's cos of all the chocolate i eat so it sorta evens out la :p haha!

all my love, paula :)

HEYOS! haha. i'm back. finished one paper yday. and i'm having my breakfast and i refuse to look at books whilst having it. next paper's mon, so i slept early, had a great slp, and i'm feeling better than i did last night.

congrats iris. and jiayou inez! hah. i bet its ur last paper (n us pple pls dun kill me) just chiong lor. haha.

incidentally, i read the line about iris saying that she was listening to dynamica, i was listening to macchu. den cause it was in my thumbdrive, i got the double deal of listening to stars and stripes again (do i hear groans frm the batch) haha! dunno leh. the end of stars and stripes is so.. happy. and i'm blasting everything into my earphones. i'm almost transported into a world of my own. haha! i'm qt glad my roomie's not arnd, i think she'll think i'm mad.

but owells. i think i'm going quite mad doing stupid things. yday i got so cooped up, and though my door was open, i started jumping up and down (thankfully no one walked past) haizzz. haha.

yikes. back to breakfast (i'm eating properly see.. and i drink at least 2.5litres of water a day k, bet only paula can beat tt) and then i'm going to take a look at my best pal: stats :(

hello darlings :) how have you all been? hee i just passed my driving test! :) -feels happy- but ahh.. hope you all are doing well :) preparing for exams and crappy stuff like that. aww.. i'm listening to dynamica now, and i was just thinking about you all and how much i miss you!

i agree with tm. i've been spoilt by you all. there's a very different feeling when i'm with you all and with other people. the other day, i met some people going to australia with me, and i don't feel that level of comfort like i do with you all. i think about how we used to stone in the corridor, the band room, lido.. heck everywhere come to think of it.. and we could just enjoy the companionship. blaaaaahhhh.

anyway, in view of the upcoming exams, please drink more water, sleep early and study hard!!!! :) which i'm sure you've all been doing! and don't eat too many cookies and biscuits -looks pointedly at tm- woman!! i tell you, with every biscuit you eat, must drink 1 litre of water. :) hee just kidding.. of course this is coming from someone who hardly drinks water.. i'm a camel. :) anyway, take care darlings.

just wanted to say that i miss you all so much..

hey all. in the midst of exams. but i cldnt resist the urge to blog.

let me type a keyword here: disparities

maybe we've been too long in our comfort zone. known each other for too long. understand each other quite well. because now i'm increasingly intolerant of certain things around me. new things/people. ha. or you might say, perhaps i wasnt very tolerant to begin with.

maybe i was just spoilt by you guys.

haiz, sometimes i wish people knew just when to shut up. yes, they may wish to fill any void in the conversation. but sometimes i tire of small talk, of listening to inconsequential things. esp when it hasnt been a gd day.

i dont bloody need to start talking abt the exam again (when i haf stopped) just because the people in front of us are doing so. i also dont bloody care if people frm my current sch do actually chance across this wadever we call it, though i know its damn public. i dont bloody care if they know who the dao one is. bloody bloody bloody hell.

i think i'm being bloody harsh on people who might have good intent. but i need to expel those thoughts before they fester in my mind. then i'm going back to mugging, which has been unproductive this morning.

take care everybody. and jiayou for exams! sleep early and drink more water ok. dont fall sick. and i look forward to seeing you guys soon -hugs-

thiss is xin again, pretending to be nic so it'll seem as though nic has posted a lot in the past few dayss.. i dunno why nic doesn't blogg. she says she has time to do many stupid thingss. well i guess blogging isn't categorized as a stupid thing so she has no time for this o_O nic and ian are having a silly arguments about making beds o_O i don't make my bed usually. haha~ my room is in a perpetual mess. haha.. nic and rui are relatively neater i think.. rui definitely is, but she says she cleared her room cos i was going to come. haha~ i think it's a hostel thinggiee.. why is everyone not bloggigng? where has eveyrone disappeared to?

nic has a frisbee in her room! i miss playing frisbeee!! imiss huiyan. huiyan is my ultimate frisbee partner. as in huiyan is my ultimate ultimate frisbee partner. if u get what i mean. ok this is silly. in microsoft words they will squigglify the ultimateultimate cos it's a repeated word o_O ANW. i shalllll end heree before i fill the blog up wif more crap.. byeee~

heyyy. this is xinyi not nic =) i'm in her room with ian & nic getting ready for breakfast! rui's at class on a saturday morning!! i swear that's a crime. i can't believe i'm in cambridge. i feel so at home o_O guess it's cos i spent my first four days in uk in cambridge and i'm actually pretty familiar with the roads here, like i can find my way back to newnham by myself. haha! we had a really great di (nic says hiii and nic says she misses everyone and xin wonders why she doesn't blog then grr but the cambridge ppl are mad muggers o_O i thought it was a general uk thing to slack but apparently it isn't o_O) -nner here at fitzbillies, expensive, but wonderful nonetheless =) it's so nice to be here for nic's birthday, i feel at home. like when we dressed up again yesterday, it was like we were going to the esplanade (cos in signapore, that's like about the only place u can wear posh clothes to and not like spend a bomb).

we're going for breakfasttt.. after nic has finally decided what jacket to wearr. haha =)

hey arlin lied! she said that she's gonna blog but she didn't! somebody scold her for me!

heyy cheesecakeyy tuesdays sound gd. and waffley tuesdays. mm.
ahh i miss going to yummy eating places with u guyss. haha sakae buffets, and imperial kitchenss, and changing appetitess!! even swensen's.. haha. i miss gorging on earthquakee. i don't htink the ice cream is -that- good. but it's the fun of everyone gorging themselves silllyy. HAHA. i'll err go to the gym and get slimms and then eat a lot with u guys when i come back.. i want to go to the mushroom potttss! the mushrooms here taste gross.

i love huiyany huiyan! *hugss*

heyos. i guess everyone's pretty busy. xin dun stress! i'm confident that your english is up to par. really. i should be the one fretting about the level of MINE. i know the situation that you're in is entirely different, because you're taking a different course. but still...

your experiences all sound so unique. but you shld be glad that you're safe! why are you hankering for little 'adventures' like that?!! btw, the yellow leaves sound nice :)

was dying to rant yesterday. but that feeling faded away. today, i'm almost done with my presentations for the semester. and something struck me. we always knew that we were different from others, the way we do things, the way we view things, and the way we answer to things. but somehow the difference was even more apparent today. and i was kinda irked. and i couldnt air them. cause no one wld understand anyway. so i just wanted to say that rgssb2003 rocks! totally!

looking forward to saturdays. and cheesecakey tuesday. i wish i could make that plural. hah. but all the same, do join us!

heyaa i miss everyone. i've been diligently reading all ur entries. but i'm too lazy to write mine. HAHA. especially since i've been thinking about my essay. thinking what i should do. thinking how i should start. thinking who i can ask for help. never actually thinking about the question o_O hehe.

chong's roof sounds alarming o_O how's ur accomm like?! haha. earthquake sounds exciting. i was reading lynette's blog abt it. haha! oh there was apparently a typhoon nearby or somethingg. like near edinburgh? which explained the sudden influx of rain like a few wks ago. but err ya i didn't even really know about it. so ya.

the leaves are turning yellow. and i was struck by how much i miss u guys yesterday cos i had a dream last night. not that i can remember the dream, but i woke up, flooded with emotionss. mann i miss u guys. strangely my english hasn't really improved. i'm quite worried for my essay. esp since there's a line underneath tt goes: if you need help with your writing, get it. it is impossible to do well in th study of politics or international relations unless you can write well. and i just saw it. and i was like ERR. how nice. sighh. i think my current essay will rank about C at most =(

take care u peeps. =)

iris is back :) yay! hee hi my dears :) hope you all are doing well studying for exams and stuff! and don't stress out too much k? like nic's water bottle last time that i think she got from taiwan.. DUO HE SHUI! :) so yes.. the weather is very cranky, so you all must rest well, eat properly and drink lots of water okay? :) cannot fall sick.

hui chong!! you must get your roof fixed!! :( what if the rain comes again then how? and be careful of earthquakes!

ahh.. i've been listening to the les mis CD and the phantom of the opera cd and i was thinking about you all and was feeling so nostalgic! ahh.. -hugs- i really really miss you all..

i miss liu rui
i miss ling wei
i miss xin yi
i miss hui chong
i miss paula
i miss inez
i miss pei xuan
i miss tse min
i miss bird
i miss hui yan
i miss clarine
i miss marlin
i miss pat
i miss sarah
i miss nic

-BIG HUG-

wow this is a RARE entry lolol

i finally finished renovation and updates for my blog
so yeah
if you are dying to find out what japan is like
you can go there!!------------------------>
or here if you dont know where the link is lol

i have no classes today~~
i always have no classes on tuesday btw because i arranged my timetable that way lol
but not good cuz it gives me the chance to sleep in
and i overslept today >.<
so i missed breakfast waaaaah

my roof is well now
but noone came to fix it though
it just stopped leaking cuz err... the rain stopped
and there was a earthquake near tokyo a few days ago
but i didnt feel anything
what a pity

i tell you all again when i get some violent vibration here!

heyhos. couldnt get down to work. dunno why. apparently no haze today. it's quiet. but i just cant get concentrate. i'm not even on msn k. have been so guai lately. (maybe too guai liao :p) decided to blog.

i miss shopping with xy too. haha. i STILL need clothes. but the matter's not as pressing. besides, too bz and far away from civilisation to go shopping. and then again, there's the problem of not being as moneyful as ever. no more income :( no more money to spend and eat good food, and i HAVENT eaten at changing appetites, neither have i eaten at mushroom pot. yet. oh man. see what happened. i'm craving cheesecake now :( talk abt food right.

ehh. you all ah. since i'm being guai right, i've mostly been having proper meals k. and i've a tonne of fruits with me :) biscuits are my breakfast and my snacks.. how could you deprive me of them?!! heh. havent had chocs in ages tho. too heaty to consume too much :(

oh and sl's room looks nice.. the furnishings look nice and woody. haha. ur place looks much better than ours. only i wldnt wanna have carpeted floors.. imagine spilling something on them.. it'll stink :s i guess you dun haf a choice tho, you'll be living in a cold cold environment. haha. i gather the accomodation with the attic room is the one that was being renovated when you landed over there? it looks cosy..

oh and i hope chong is well, apart frm her leaking roof.. i gather it's mended alr? wads it like to experience a typhoon :x

sighh. i shall try to get back to work. sch's an ass. i'm feeling weary. bahs. see the rest of you guys on sat for rwinds k? will be able to attend pracs this month :D

hello my dears :) i'm feeling super uber bored so i thought i'd drop by and say HIII :) and that i miss you all so so much :( hee i overslept this morning so i didn't go for my first lecture :D -feels happy- and tse min is having a discussion now and then will have a lesson and will end when i start my next lecture so i can't have lunch with her :( -grumbles-

where be nic and liu rui? and ahhh.. :( i miss chong, shun, nic, liu rui and xin!!! :( -HUGS- i have just been stoning around my room for the whole morning and i'm soooooo bored. bleh. i think i'll go eat my lunch soon then come back to my room to stone again. life is so boring.. and inez has already moved out so i'm all alone in a super deluxe single room.

shun ling! your room looks very pretty.. :) so.. british. hee hee.

ah i'm crapping. and yes i agree with xin yi.. tse min stop snacking and paula stop surviving on chocs.. although.. we probably could ;)

aww love you all!

heyy everybody, unlike nic and rui who haven't been updating the batch blog since they've arrived (hah!), i'm here again =) okay, maybe cos i'm really free today. i only haf jap tutorial and jap lecture, and since it's beginner's class, i'm still way ahead of my class. AH there's a squirrel outside my window! the squirrels here are really cute, they have such bushy tails =) like the cats here, they have so MUCH fur it scares me. and the doggies here are really cute too. there're many daschunds around, and i love to see them waddling down the pavement. i once saw this bulldog panting and huffing after its master (who was only walking btw but the ppl here walk so fast so...) and they are so obedient it's amazing =)

anw i really miss u guys. the only thing i can look forward to is like meeting shun in dec, and meeting rui and nic?? during easter holz. i miss huiyan! huiyany huiyan.. i miss shopping with tsemin and not buying anything (haha!) i miss everyone! i saw this choc fountain in this shop down some street and i thought about our last batch outing at nic's house and the gorgeous choc fondue we had =) i haf the photos in my laptop. err i'll upload it sometime ok =)
yay. i uploaded my uk photos alr.. somewheree. i'll link it to our batch blog =) yay. so everyone can see how pretty uk is =) everyone take care!

ps i hope tsemin stops eating biscuits and paula stops eating chocs.

hello everybody! i just listened to the mickey mouse song. do you all still remember we used to sing and hold it on the bus everytime we came back from some performance? i was thinking how this tradition came about. maybe it's to train our breath! haha..anyway, i miss singing it and i miss all of you.

hey pple.. it's oct! nothing interesting happening tho. just decided to mention tt cause our blog was feeling/looking dead. i think i'm much too 'free' for my own gd. i'm just blogging for the sake of blogging cause i'm too stoned to do anything. as you could probably infer by now, I JUST HAD STATS TUT :( and i come out feeling bloody retarded, and i dun understand half of wad the guys saying and he likes to skip questions. and i tried to catch up on tut til 2am to no avail :( i'm like THE model student. haha. and i walked back to hall smelling of cigarette smoke cause some bloody idiot decided to smoke in the stairwell at sch. i came out gasping for breath can. stinkos. and so i'm feeling smelly :( ok i'm ranting. thats obvious. and cl for ur information i'm having RICE for lunch today OK. i'm NOT subsisting on biscuits :P yep. btw. i think the air has been horrid recently. i need a proper mountain to live on :s

bye everybody. i will really miss you all. )=

okay i'm crying already and i'm not even at the airport. )=

hello this is clarine. at Yushof Ishak House Canteen with some stupid brown cow called sl. sl says Moo. arlin claims that one day she will blog. arlin has switched seats with sl so she can see the screen.

arlin says sl says Moo.

cl: Arlin say something
arlin: something
arlin: (timeout) is my favourite chocolate.
arlin: thanks for telling the whole world

We ignore sl because she is brown (brown t-shirt which she claims is too small) and saying ridiculous things.

arlin suggests that sl take this opportunity to do all the things she never dared to do because she was afraid of the consequences.

arlin: sl is bashing me up.
sl: do I need to face the consequences

hui yan comes back from the dentist

hy: let's go to the student lounge, we can play pool ....
sl: let's get this opportunity to record down her secrets

sl wants to say something in her defence

arlin claims to want to blog over the holidays.

everyone is complaining that i'm typing rubbish but they don't want to type it themselves.

sl has amnesia because she obviously cannot remember what she is saying.

sl thinks the world is against her. sl= k in kafka

clarine needs coffeeeeeeee.

hy: hy went through the table to say hi
arlin: sl wants to marry a pig

we ignore sl whom we currently detest.

[insert much more rubbish]

arlin: sl stands for stupid loser.

sl possesses a mickey mouse bag.

now we go to view hy's ppt.

hellos why is tm so depressed! cheer up oks. study! i don't feel all that inclined to read my books and stuff in my room, not when i've finally gotten my internet set up, but hey girl, let's study, just a few more years =)

the people here walk VERY fast. and i know why. cos all the girls dress damn skimpily and it's cold. the wind is so strong i get blown off the stairs, like literally ok, luckily i was holding on to the handrail. ok i guess i wasn't really paying attention and the gust of wind caught me just as i lifted one foot to move down. anw, back to my point, so you gotta walk really fast to gain heat. maybe clarine will be relieved to hear that i've started walking faster too =)

yeah, and i will err soon, err set up a blog. yeah. in fact i'll start looking for a skin like now. i promise.

everyone SMILEE! and be happy.

heyos. i'm posting today not cause i've any exciting stories to tell. havent been climbing any hills/mountains lately, unless you wanna talk abt my daily pilgrimage up some hill every morning. but here's a piece of bad news: tm's feeling whiny :( and of course you all are unfortunate to bear the brunt of this, both in the real world, and in the virtual world.

i've got more free time now. but i just dont feel like doing anything. and so, this stupid girl keeps winding up at the batch blog.. like 500 times a day, cause i've nothing else to do.. dont wanna study, dont wanna do go lect, dont wanna do anything. but no one else has posted! so unhappening -sulks- and i keep going through archives. damn sad can. i think everyone's like super busy, and i'm wasting time away.

this sounds vaguely like the way hy used to post just before prelims and a s last year. only she kept posting and supposedly didnt do work. i keep coming here and really havent been doing any work.

bahs. was thinking abt footdrills on the way to school today. i miss it. i finally realise why i cannot stand the way certain people walk. thats because their gait is downright sloppy, to put it in ly's words. dont know why i didnt figure it out earlier. it suddenly clicked today. haha (yah i'm slow) but yeps. i think even if we tried our best to do footdrills now, it would still look sloppy due to the lack of practice :(

yeah. i wanna climb a real hill too ok! xy said she was scared to death. i think my life lacks adventure. how boring. sighhs. school stinks.

hellos.

i climbed a hill the other day, like climb, like rockclimbing climb, part of it anyway. i was scared half to death okk. if i had slipped and fell, i could have rolled all the way down the hill, not funny at all. all because we took a wrong turn and went into this narrow, non-existent path which ended at a cliff and the guys insisted on climbing instead of turning back o_O at least the cliff wasn't high.. like about 2 or 3m? i don't know. i'm terrible at estimation. but i hate climbing. but the view is gorgeous up there with mist rolling about the grassy patches of the summit. literally on top of the world.

rui is in stratford now! she says she took photos wif statues of shakespeare, hamlet and lady macbeth! haha.

i did scottish dancing the other day. man it's something our batch MUST do mann. it's so fun and mad and exciting, especially if u haf an insanely large group of people and half of them are drunk and are whirling around uncontrollably. it's called a celidh and it involves mad spinning, lots of skipping and confusing change of partners. haha. i hope i remember when i come back to singapore. i think i'll join the scot dance club cos i can lose weight and it's just so much fun.

hello my dears!! :) hope everyone is doing ok!! :) hope you all are not stressing out too much/enjoying orientation/slacking (like me :D) or whatever. :) i just wanted to say that i miss you all very very much!! it's really nice to come back to the blog and just read the posts when i'm feeling down, because it really cheers me up so see stuff that you all write, and so, write more!! (of course, coming from me who hardly writes, but you'll see more of me hereeee!! :D)

it'll be really cool 10 years down the road when we all meet up.. some of us may be carrying babies when we meet up. haha it'll be really funny if we name them after each other. :D ok that was retarded.. but still :D then we can talk and hee if we play gr again, it'll probably be punctuated with squeaks and mispitching and swearing (like oh shit wrong note or stuff like.. what the hell..) haha but that'll be fun.. we must do something like that! :D

just want to give you all a BIG HUG and tell you all that i love you all soooooooo much :) and that i miss everybardy ;) haha i just thought of the "I CAN SEE YOU ALL WITH MY INFRARED VISION.."

i'm so glad everyone is fine!! =D =D next one to fly off will be shunling, and then me, and then next year iris and possibly sarah.

sighhh i hope that at the end of the day, like 10 years down the road, we'll still get messages from like peixuan or huiyan or me or anyone saying like 'hey batch outing this friday meet at where what time okay?' (=

and then we'll meet up with like everyone and see how everyone has evolved. and then on july26 we'll crash the rg band room and play gr horribly but who really cares, really, because as long as it's all of us and we're playing together once more, who really cares?

hey i'm in edinburgh. rui's in the lake district now. there's like no reception. but if you all have anything to tell her, you can tell me and i'll sms her cos it's free till like 31 sept! whee. i'm going to climb arthur's seat on sat with some americans. pretty cool eh? btw that's some HUGE mountains the locals call a hill. like wth man, bukit timah is a hill but not arthur's seat ok. stuff's pretty cool around here. i'm lazy to update more but i'll do tt when my laptop internet connection's up and when i finally upload my pretty photos. tink i'll get a new webshots album wif user name xininscot or sth.. ahha. yea.

there's not much entertainment arnd here (yea there's cinemas and stuff but it's pretty ex, i'm catching a play on fri tho) except clubbing and i dun haf clothes for tt SO. ya. anw it's dangerous, i wanna go wif ppl i trust. so maybe next yr when i haf more close frens, i'll check out the night life and mb bring u all when u come? ever? haha. anw this dec i'll be in london i think for a short while? yea cos my fren's going there before flying home, so i'll hang around wif her so i wun die of boredom in halls. ppl, email me!! i promise to reply. promise!

hey everyone!

and huichong i'm really glad that you're safe in japan now! :)

so all we need are liu rui and xinyi to report their arrival to us. haha i wonder if they have the time to do it man.

and well actually i dun have much to say... except that well, all of us rock together.

haha that's all.

bye hui chong!

hello everybodyyyy!!! i haven't been here in ages ages ages ages!! how've you all been? i've been quite cranky lately.. miss you all a lot a lot. :( -hugs- i was listening to this song the other day about memories and good old times and stuff and i was feeling so sad!! because i miss you all so so so so much. :( hai.. the good ol' days when we used to rubbish around the corridor.. hai hai.. miss you all sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much. feeling quite sad... hai. and so many people are going away.. must keep in touch ok?????

ugh i'm in my room now just doing rubbish and rubbish and rubbish and getting withdrawal symptoms.. :( i should crash rj.. nic's lesson :) or crash nus.. anyone care to be a tour guide for a few hours? or for one lecture? :D

really miss you all X infinity...

much much love from iris :)

hello everybody! =D

i crashed nic's lesson yesterday! it was a j1 class and i was wearing a j2 shirt. i had to pretend tt i was doing make-up for a test. anw, i think i gave myself away cos i was trying to talk to nic during e test n i was peeping at other pple's ans n dis girl was like staring at me. but i wasn't trying to copy, i just wanted to check if my luck was gd. e test was on bio! virus! i noe nth abt it la. anw i scored like 5/23. i think i scored e lowest in e class, but i think i was e most diligent student. i took notes thru out e whole lesson when nicole was explaning e answers.

anw, i think nicole is quite a gd teacher! she went like 'oei shut up' a lot. but tt's not why she's a gd teacher. she's quite gd at explanations la. considering im totally not a bio student, n i was still able to understand what she was talking abt =)

HELLO PEEEEEPURRR THIS IS NICOLE.
and huiyan is here beside me haha.
we're in the rj com lab and huiyan is breaking all the rules because 1. she's not a student here 2. she's not a teacher here 3. she's in shorts and she's not supposed to be in the lab. BUT i'm exploiting my position as a teacher in rj so she's not getting scolded or anything (yet).

hello everybody!=D

clearly huiyan is a person of many words.
okay she really got nothing to say already.
but anyway she just told me that my entire list previously was wrong. so we gotta redo it haha oops. and can someone like please make this list permanently on the side or whatever haha i don't know how to do.

hello everybody! =D im back! how's everyone? anw im too tired to continue, just want to say tt i love n miss u all =) i'll post again soon!

HELLO PEOPLE SHAMELESS ADVERTISEMENT:

NTUSB Concert!
26th August 2006
7pm
ACS(B) i think. or (I). i think it's (B)
Mrs Lee somethingsomething Theatre
10bucks!

yayyyyy please come okay? you don't have to come to support me or inez or livia or christineocta (okay that's all the rg people in there), but come to support MR OURA!!

get tickets from me or inez or anyone else you know in ntusb or at the door.

comecomecomecomecomecomecome!

oh yeah the concert is called: REEL IN! because we're playing movie music. sounds like take off huh haha.

okay yup take care you guys!

hey pple. just came back frm hall camp. was surprised to see so many posts!! our blog is usually so dead.. haha. anws. yah. lets lets all go out on national day. i've missed you all loads! we can watch the show together too, but i think it's boring. and contrary to what ssato says, i wanna watch the drills!! i like drills. i like watching drills. their flowery performance is another thing that i cant be bothered abt. the fireworks are secondary to me. but i'll watch them with you all if you all want to spend the time together.

and yes iris, i'm now officially ms grumps. and not dao one. haha. i think they're interchangeable. so hecks.

anws. it's been a wk since i last saw you all. i've missed you guys loads! it's different with our batch as with others somehow. i feel almost telepathic at times. we know what each other is feeling and what they want, we know their quirks and all. and of course, as xy said, there are no pretenses amongst us. even if we had, i think it'd be difficult to hide la. i heard 'jia' the other day. and i had no one to share shunling's song with. cos no one wld understand it, nor wld they know that changing lyrics or making up songs seems to be our batch's (or shunling's) forte. haha. so i was singing it under my breath and getting mildly amused, but at the same time missing all you people.

sch starts tmr :(

see you people soon. i'm really looking forward to the next outing! haha. and even more so for the unplanned outing to go to london to visit the geps and watch les mis :s oh wells. haha. love you all loads.

hello everybody i miss everyone sooo much!!
the three days we spent together were so wonderful. thanks huiyan for all the preparations she put in!! it's with u guys that i feel really at home. we could sit forever and not talk and yet still feel comfortable. we could grouch, whine, be ourselves and everything is ok cos we accept each other for who we really are. there were no pretences, all guards down. it's with you guys that i can really be me!! thanks everyone for such a wonderful time.. i love u guyss!!

SOOO let's meet up on national day kk.. we haf enough tattoos for quite a few ppl i think.. we haf only 2 caps, 2 small flags to wave about.. we all dress in red and white okk.. maybe we cut out white cardboard stars and stick it on ourselvess.. hurhur! i think i'm mad.. okk. but it'll be fun.. and i want to collect as many memorable moments as i can wif u galsss (and tsemin the guy =P).

HELLO PEOPLE

LET'S GO OUT THIS WEDNESDAY NATIONAL DAY AND BE PATRIOTIC!

xy and i went to ndp preview last sat so we got all these caps and tattoos and flags (well, actually only enough for 2)

so let's go out on wednesday afternoon and go about town being patriotic! since we're all leaving and may never get to do this again (i doubt it actually)

in the evening if we're lazy we can troop back to someone's house and watch the show (although i must say it's not that good, only the fireworks are good)

or we can go to someplace and catch the fireworks. (=

yup. so how?

hey!

well first things first huiyan i love the video! haha the last le mis part reminded me of the last part of the real les mis when all of us sitting around yesterday commented on how it makes you wanna shout encore again. haha dun you all just wish that we could shout encore to our very own lives in rgssb?

and yeah gotta thank all of you who busied yourself preparing for the chalet. quite sad that i couldn't join you guys three quarters of the time but better there than never haha.

and to tse min... that poem is damn lame! haha has my retardness rubbed off on you already? i will attempt to continue it:

oh shit. haha tse min, do you want to add one more 'i love'? then it will really feel like those retarded limmericks that all kids remember. and those with kids can teach their kids this 10 years down the road.

i love, i love, i love
the retarded things we do
i love, i love, i love,
the fact that we still rule. (ok this doesn't really rhyme but it sounds quite inspiring... YEAH RIGHT!)

ok, the next person to post is responsible for adding more stanzas to our very first batch limmerick. wait actually this isn't even a limmerick. batch nursery rhyme i guess. what do you call those silly poems that go "roses are red, violets are blue (really?), the drain is stinky and so are you"? and yeah i didn't get to see clarine! a lot of other people too actually but i heard that clarine was the highlight of the first night haha!

heyos. i really think nic is going to kill me. her 'HELLO EVERYBARDY' just lost its dramatic effect -apologetic look- anws. i'm bored to death. for once no one frm our batch is online. i guess everybody's catching up on slp. i dun feel like doing so now. not just yet. and i dunno. i'm alr getting withdrawal symptoms.

i really really enjoyed chalet k. i havent laughed so much in ages. like really really really. and jus did stupid and random things. haha. and LES MIS IS STILL STUCK IN MY HEAD!!!!! okok. i think if i post what's stuck in wads left of my brain, you all wun kill me. it's better than the version we came up with in the airport. only i dunno how to continue it. so whoever can improvise on it -winks at the busy zhun-

I love, I love
my rgs batch mates,
I love, I love,
they make such great good dates.

abit retarded but hard to rhyme leh. and anws. i think hy doesnt need to feel embarrased by her vcd. i liked it. haha. all the nice songs! and tho the pics were rather small at times. great memories! i forgot all abt the retarded video tt we made at bishan park. haha! and i realised jus how much i'm like gg miss everybody.

gahh. anws. i know we're all not dying. but den again. not used to not seeing you pple. bah bah.

anws. yah. nic was talking abt our next chalet. maybe next yr's summer hols? like when they come back for their internship and wad not, we'll like book a chalet for the wkend and haf some good fun again? haha. poor hy this yr. erms. i'll try to help out next yr (if we haf one) :s LES MIS IS STILL STUCK IN MY HEAD! and yeps. i wanna go visit you guys and we'll haf a (semi) batch outing to watch it kk?? haha.

i really hope i see lr soon. i wanna watch les mis again before sch starts.

i love.. i love..

HELLO EVERYBARDY!! i haven't posted in a while, but after our(= liurui + xinyi + paula + huiyan + tsemin + me) long conversation today at changiairport about our batch blog, i decided to post!

oh yeah inezzza baby i heard that you wanted to change the layout? okay uh could we have like a thingy on the side like you know, all the other thingies on the side, that says where we are all? okay so like lemme just do a really impromptu and informal list now:

2.30pm - meet at pasir ris mrt
3.00pm - CHECK in

below are some additional stuff tt we prob need, if there's no one bringing them yet n anyone can volunteer, pls sms me or tag. thanks!

hiiiii i just can't wait for the chalet and see everyone. everyone msut appear kks. i miss everyonee.. everyoneeeee.

everyone must come with brilliant ideas of what to do. bridge is always good to fall back upon of course. and despite vehement protests to yoga, i will probably still bring the cd if i can find. hohoho. let's swimm! and let's pick seashells, build sandcastles, and stroll along the (not-so-) pretty beach before we all get too old for this. ok maybe we are a little old btu we're young at heart *smiles*

hey ppl!

haha i realised i haven't been here for so long! so just dropping by to say hello!

hello everybody! =D i haf decided to book e nsrcc chalet instead of e aloha loyang one cos i heard tt dere r a lot of lizards n cockroaches. but dis means tt it'll be more ex (like 20 bucks per person for e chalet alone compared to less than 10 bucks per person at aloha loyang). also, dere's no kitchen at nsrcc, so xinyi n me wld haf to abandon e idea of cooking dinner for ur (yes, we wanted to cook curry chicken). so does anyone haf any objection to dis? n oso to eating diff flavours of instant noodles for lunch n dinner? we'll still haf junk food of cos!

heys. i announce that i'm like semi unemployed now and feeling extremely bored. damn sian. haha. so who are the gd ol souls that have been unemployed for some time now? lets do sth funky. i dunno wad tho. lets have a pre-outing before the chalet and go cycling at east coast. when the sch hols end or sth. den no pesky lil children arnd to irritate us. and we can un-pasty-fy ourselves.

you all come up with a list of places tt have gd food den me and cin can make a list and plan the route, yes? haha.

i want chalet! i'm so damned free. anytime!! stayovers not as fun, cos mostly only 1 day affairs and i guess we wun be able to find a suitable place to house us all. haha. but i guess my response to hy's post is kinda redundant cos its the working pple tt actually make the difference here..

ntu is not only ABIT far away. its like a periphery area. bloody ULU can. oh and believe it or not tm's gg ntu to study accountancy. yeah yeah. no more dreams abt the armed forces or anything lyddat. and all you peeps (apart frm those gg overseas) are gg nus :( and tho our blog is like gg strong (i jus realised its like 2 yrs old!) i'll miss seeing you all. so we must make our chalet a reality kk.. later plan liao but nothing materialises abit sad only :( cos so hard to plan batch outings somemore :(

lets go jogging. the weather hasnt been tt gd recently. but still. it'd be gd to exercise. and i guess once i'm like moveded all the way to some ulu boon lay, no need to meet up and go macritchie to run or anything lyddat liao can.. so lets lets!

gah. i think i speak like a dying woman. but time is running out! sch's starting soon, and we all know tt its no hidden secret tt tm LOVES studying alot :(

hello everybody! most chalets r fully booked for all e weekends all e way until aug. can we actually hold chalet during weekdays? can all those who r working take leave? please? (it's oso much cheaper!) if not we haf to stay at someone's hse den.

hi dears :) i haven't been here in quite a while.. ah quite. :) anyway, i don't know whether i'm playing for nbc. :D is anyone else playing? if mr oura needs basses i'll play!! then i can join xin! :D haha.

ah yes ntu is a bit far away.. a bit. takes me almost 2 hours to get there. -.- how terrible.

i saw tse min yesterday!! i haven't seen tse min since.. cadenza. o.0 so long. :( but yay nice to see peoples. and hui xian too!! haven't seen her since.. cadenza 9. haha. anyway, i want a food trail too!!! but someone must learn how to drive first. then we can rent a van and squeeze 18 people inside. hee.. liu rui! quickly pass! :D then we can go eat prata.. lots of food and most impotantly.. tang yuan! :D :D -feels excited-

we're having a chalet right? hy ! what is this tse min tells me that you can't make it for chalet hm?! must go k? and xin, remember arlin and i used to tell you that you look like plastercine. :) :) -squish- anyway, let's do yoga at the beach! then it can be like those incredible.. incredibly.. (whatever their tourism slogan is) india. :D hee hee. im' starting to look pasty. :( i don'thave a bikini though.. don't think i'll ever get one :) and we can play bridge until we get sunburnt. :) so funs..

i haven't jogged since like.. hm. can't remember when was the last time i jogged. where should we meet for jogging? sounds like a good idea.. although i'll probably start dying after 100 m. :)

i miss everybody!! (everybardy) :( can't wait to see you all again!! :) -hug hug hug hug hug-

ah so exciting. so many things. um. let's be systematic.

1. on band

i'm playing for NBC. i hope at least. iris join us! everyone join us!

ntu is really far away. i'll love to play under mr. oura though. but who else is playing?

2. on outings

tsemin and i will draft a food trail kk! who's on?

i want chalet! let's go to the beach in sexy bikinis and get a sexy tan. mb we haf it on wkends la, since rui is working. *glares* workaholic. haha. um i want to go somewhere sunny la. i kinda miss the sun. i'm a tad yellow. heck people actually tell me 'you look yellow'. like wth, aren't ppl supposed to be more civilised than tt. gah. well anw, who's organising ah? i'm confused. we could do yoga, build sand castles, wade in the sea (murky as it may be), pick sea shells, stroll along in romantic fashion, do silly things, play bridge. wow. like wow. mann i really want to see the sun. ok i suppose everyone gets the idea. *beams*

um how abt we meet regularly for jogging? =P let's start a jogging thingyy. must keep fit.

UMM everyone stop working okk. working is bad for ur healthss =P
i miss everyone (and the sun).. hope to see ya sooon =(

hello everybody!

livia asked me to play for ntu band because she's the only perc around. i think i will be.

but anyway, she's inviting us ALL to play if we want to. it's under Mr Oura so that should be quite an incentive. (= i believe there are no tubas.

anyway anyway, pracs are
wednesday - 7pm to i forgot
saturday - 2pm to 5pm

the concert is august 26.

if you need/want more details, like are there too many of your instrument (Mr Oura says that he doesn't mind more flutes, so hmm i doubt there'll be too many of your instrument haha), ask me k?

miss you all! hope we have an outing soon.

hello everybody! =D

i'm most prob going to work till e end of dis month. is everyone not going to work in july? (i assume tt cos even i'm not =p) cos we're going to carry out our chalet plan! do ur want it on weekdays or weekends? pls tag or post somewhere if u can't make it on certain day(s) of july so tt we avoid booking e chalet on these days =D

shall we haf a bbq? or shall we cook?! haha...n r we really going to do yoga? wad else was on e list? shun ling! post e list of things tt we can do for batch outings! whee~ (i'm copying xy) i'm so excited!

hail to my fellow unemployeds!

and for you poor employeds, come and join our league!!

let's see.. our current recruitment: xin! nic! paula! chong! inez(?) shunling! ok i don't know. this list is errr quite outdated potentially.. if u ppl have gone over to the other (DARK) side, then make the necessary amendments to my list kk!! haha.. and u employedss, rmb to date us out on ur off-days. rui, u workaholic. haha.

till then, take care~

tse min is so eloquent. i realise i can't express myself anymore. so i shall juz say, 'yeah, i totally agree with tsemin'. (hmm was that bimbotic?)

and i want to hang out at people's house! if you all don't mind my puny and boring house (and the fact that my whole family is in since my mom has sch holz too and my cousins love to invade my house), comecome! haha i don't think i can fit like ten ppl though unless we have a pool party or something downstairs o_O just an idea.. haha.. can i pop over to people's houses also!!!

caveat: i was NOT trying to sound bimbotic. i was trying NOT to sound bimbotic, wad with those -hints- anws clarine got the pt so yah :p

yay yay. FATS HERE WE COME!!! i've been pigging out on cakes and chocs. now MORE FOOD!!!

argh. ok. here's a lil response to xy's post. you know wad, at least we had the lao ren yuan last time. i dun mind a lao ren yuan NOW. at least you'll see each other everyday (as you have over the past 4-6yrs). i barely see you all now, much less talk abt stuff, do crazy things like ride in huge tuba boxes and wad not.

living in the past's no good. but i get wad xy was trying to say. band WAS our life. and now life seems empty and hollow. thing is, we dont have the music and pracs to accompany us now. was in a strangely nostalgic mood yday, so i picked up this bag of old notes and went thru some of em.

you'll seldom catch me saying this, but i wanna say this: to my dearest batch, thanx for being my friend! thanks for always being there for me, sharing the memories and fighting thru all tt shit tt made us the batch we are today. i'd almost forgot abt the stuff we used to do, to say, simply because i havent seen you all in ages (feels so to me la). but somehow by just going thru all the notes, i felt the concern tt we had in our batch again. and i'm glad for tt.

the above sounds bloody bimbotic. but yeps. just wanted to say tt we rock :)

and yeah. i think cl may be right. i may be suffering frm the stockholm syndrome. i dun know if i wanna quit my job now :s but i need a break. and the idea of just maybe hanging out at each other's house, talking, eating, or just doing our stuff or just meeting up outside really appeals to me. we shld live the life of a housewife (or poor tai tai however you wanna see it) before things start heating up.. right? shall we?

firstly, WHY is tsemin trying to sound bimbotic? *stares*

secondly, YEA, join us in our getting-fat scheme. (no, you did not hear that.) we just want to go for a buffet on wed! wheee~

thirdly, sighh, i agree with tsemin. we're old. we belong rightfully to the lao3 ren2 yuan4. haha, still remember that place? lol. now we don't even haf that. we're so lost. time rushes past us and we just float aimlessly about, sometimes losing our anchor to firm, solid ground. last time, i lived for band.. and now, i really don't know. it's really wonderful to meet any of you, to reminisce, to talk rubbish, to discuss the looming future.. just to see you all, feel happy, then get down to the monotonous job of organizing my life again.

just a final note (esp to hy), don't get too caught up with ur work ya? life's short, enjoy it! =P

hellos. i realised i havent blogged in ages. and we still dun haf a batch day! y not we let it coincide with band bday eh? i just realised tt june is almost here. was walking arnd j8 the other day and i realised (yes, yet again) that the june hols were here! we're how old la. i din notice tt. less than a yr ago, we were still in uniform, walking arnd town and everything like the world belonged to us. now i dun feel like i belong to any world can.. stuck in my muffin land. haha!

oh anws, i digressed. wanted to ask whens the next outing. cos right. yah. rmb tt list? i think zhun shld post it. when are we gg for our cruises, chalets, holidays, and all tt rubbish?! we're gg start wadever we're gg start and not haf fun before tt. how can?!!

i wanted to blog a long time ago but was too tired too. cos sometimes when ur walking along the road, you just think of stuff and you rmb things.. random things.. like our culottes to pe shorts changing technique and all tt rubbish la. i miss slping on the band rm floor.. haha. my ability to fall asleep anywhere is still rather gd.. as i realised during work yday. took a nap during break at the table just lyddat :s haha. and i rmbed the time when mr o slept on our band rm floor before zakeoff and we all tried to sneakily snap a photo of him. how amusing! such crazy stuff tt we used to do. funny how we're so old and weak and tired tt we dun haf time/energy to do such stupid things anymore :s

hoho. i think i jus contradicted xy's entry. but i'm like feeling.. old old old.. i miss singing silly songs. do you know i tried rmbing the words (original) to do re mi and couldnt? i cld only rmb half of our 'modified' version too. tts how sad.

and clarine's supposed to date me! i havent seen her! and whoever's free, lets go eat buffet on wed k? i've a day off. and i'm dating some pple (but not clarine) so -hinthint- someone must come along too k? haha. kk. i shall disappear for now, starting to sound bimbotic :s

hohoho.. my dad/ mom told me tt alcohol tolerance level can be trained =P i want to start training huiyan *beams* haha how about someday we stay over at someone's house and get drunk.. hurhur quite funny..

hello everybody! i drank (one small mouthful) today! r u shocked xy? haha..but aft tt, i was burning as usual =p ok...good nite everybody! =D

whee the blog has died for half a month! just because i stopped blogging *grins* let's haf a nomination and voting thing for our annual batch day!! well preferably a public holiday (since after we start working, we won't be free on any other days except wkends and err days dun fall on wkends every yr if u get what i mean. well, alternatively we could have sth like mothers' day where it's like first sunday of, say, april.) but it'll be nicer to have a MEANINGFUL day. like june 19, band birthday, that kind of date. i guess, even if we can't hang out for the whole day, we could have an afterwork thing, like dinner. who knows what adults do when they gather mann.. i don't suppose they loiter around orchard, then sit at some obscure corner discussing the next batch outing. i think they probably go to some high-class restaurant, say 'cheers', clink their wine glasses and drink (except for hy who can't drink and paula who doesn't wish to drink).

it's so strange that we're so old, and yet, i don't feel any different. i still feel like doing the silly things we used to do, wear jeans and bum around, eat lots of junk (YEA eating is our batch hobby), laugh loudly, sing silly songs. i can't imagine the day when i'll walk around in high heels EVERYDAY and wear office skirts and blazers!! and put on make-up forever and boycott fast-food. but hey we're approaching our twenties! we're considered adults in some societies. i can't believe it mann..

hello everybody! e outing dis coming mon is at 12pm! dun be late! =D we r going to eat n talk as usual n do some *exciting* stuff which can't be revealed at e moment. so juz try to come k? =) i keep having dis feeling tt this is prob going to be our only outing in a really really really long time, pls assure me tt it's not.

anw, im going to blog abt CLARINE! clarine is unrecognisable now! i dunno why, but it's not just me! i juz found out tt she eats ice cream! (how come i din noe tt previously?) she's planning to travel again, but i forgot where. to find out more, come for e batch outing on mon! =D

hello i wrote this post in school yesterday but blogger died halfway so here it is!

hey the entry with where we are all going ran out, so i'm going to create
another one haha. actually i wanted to change the date so that this post will
always be on top but i don't know how so oops. anyway yup i'm in school now haha

actually everything is still kind of unconfirmed.

anyway see you monday!

hey all you unattached people dun fret! if you need someone, you can always look for me! i am permanently free and available (for you guys only). the only condition you have to meet is that you have to treat me everytime cos i am potentially broke everyday. (i have no idea why)

anyway it's been a long while since i last blogged here and i see it's been bustling with activity. in fact clarine actually blogged! i think the last time she blogged was one year ago?

and actually i'm very proud of our blog cos it's still coming on strong after so long. ok maybe it;s just a few people but at least these few people blog consistently (somewhat). so now it's time to turn our eyes and glare at those who dun! muahahah!

tsemin is depressing me with all those marriage stuff. but the truth is that is extremely likely to happen. we barely even meet each other now although we are not married or anything. (ok maybe married to our jobs but still...) and then at weddings we will say, "oh my, look how pretty you are today! i'm so happy for you to see you all grown up and married now". though the truth is we perhaps only see each other grown up only because we haven't seen each other for so long. am i making sense here?

aiyah i'm very tired of blogging. tomorrow i go for another killer round of law written interview with no idea what terror awaits me. so i've more or less confirmed that i'll be going to fass. i heard that the food there is pretty good so if you nus guys are eating in the arts canteen, please do come and look for me! :)

hi dears :)
ah i won't be able to meet up on monday :( i have some laos stuff to do! rahh. but you all have fun k? and try to organise batch outings where i can goo!! cos i think the last one i went for was the one at iris' house and that was really long ago when we were still in jc :P
anyway! on another note, i've moved my blog. too many prying eyes in blogspot i felt. so hmm if you want to know the add tell me ;) i'll gladly tell you.

my turn to blog!! i swear tt i'm slightly bemused by the last 2 entries by xy and cl respectively. cl, you were supposed to BLOG! not give a report on wad we did. like huh?! and wads with eating venezia everyday.. eating's our batch hobby! eating's gd for you! it relieves stress, it makes you happy :) heh confession to make: i only said tt cos i'm xy's partner in crime haha. and i'm NOT doing slave labour la. i've a choice. this job is just to kill time :s

and xy has damn weird ideas.. and so as i was telling her.. either i PON her wedding even if she elects me bridesmaid.. or she dismisses tt idea and allows me to do as i please. haha. rmb i'm like the master ponner la. hoho

and on the saddd topic of weddings, i haf sth depressing to say here. do you realise tt aft pple disappear frm spore to do their tertiary education, and aft we finish our tertiary education.. and get our jobs.. we'd seldom meet. then the next time we'd meet aft our studies wld be at each others weddings, den aft weddings wld be maybe first child den aft tt wld be each others funerals. sad can. cannot let tt happen know. so as we were brainstorming like ages ago.. we must haf an annual batch day! at the very least! so we dun lose touch/contact/sight of each other.

i realise tt i'm like very depressing here. withdrawal symptoms hitting me hard. you all must turn up on mon k! i hope we wun need to cancel :s

Xinyi asked me to blog so I shall blog about xinyi. She has been eating Venezia ice-cream every day. Somebody stop her.

I think some time ago tm asked me to blog too. Tm is currently doing slave labour every day.

Hy probably didn't ask me to blog but she's guilty by association. Hy is practising the art of whining. Hy is also doing slave labour but strangely sympathetic to her employers. A form of Stockholm syndrome?

We ate at Pepper Lunch Express after I unfortunately bumped into xinyi who was wearing pink. Hy then proceeded to not recognise me every time she turned around and turned back. We ate cake at Breadtalk but they were really ordinary.

heyhey it's me again =) just to announce: batch outing on monday, labour day!! lido, so all the dating couples can drop by to eat with us...

mann.. it's so strange now. it used to be just us. and now everyone's getting attached and disappearing... hy, tsemin, clarine and i were counting how many ppl will find it difficult to troop all the way down to east coast cos they'll be going out wif their other half (haha) and it was like nearly half the batch o_O i can understand the err naturalness of it all but it's amazing that we're getting soooooo old. we'll be going for each other's weddings soon!! (someone ask tsemin or clarine to be their bridesmaid!! so cute) *hides* i think they'll kill me on monday.. oh well *shrugs* i haven't met everyone for soooo long. i feel so ulu. (ulu pandan! ah.) it was so shocking to meet clarine today. firstly i barely recognized her. as did huiyan and tsemin. *laughs* and xiaohui! hahaha~ it's not that she changed. it's hard to describe.. that's why everyone must come kk.. then we can all see what's new wif clarine =)

YAY!!! i shall proudly announce that i hope to jog at least twice a mth!! and if none of u wants to go wif me, i will accompany my sis to hc at like EIGHT in the morn to jog on sats o_O i'm getting too fat =( everyone's laughing at me.. i'm sad.

okk.. i want a batch outing.. let's go for the buffet at shangri-la. since we're all (relatively) rich now - ya rite. (so much for slimming down o_O) i miss everybody. i want to know where everyone's going!! and let's haf a BIG party/ sleepover/ feast - ok whatever, before everyone disappears okk. and i shall errr finally force myself to maintain a blog o_O so we can all keep track of what's going on in everybody's livess!! and i shall haf lots and lots of photoss (as usual) so must everybody yaaa.. and everybody must constantly update their blogs kk.. so that 10 yrs later, we won't be like strangers =(

AND to everyone's dismay, guess what, i've got a new photo album.

HAHA! looks like you all are having withdrawal symptoms like me too. it's been only 2 wks. can we please please please please please go out soon? on like vesak or mayday? i think those are the only days where i'm confirmed free. or shld we just haf a chalet of sorts in june. i bet tt will not materialise somehow.. cos you all will be working.. and i'll be like ready to slack - i hope.

eh iris! we said no more lounging arnd in places. must go out and be healthy! burn off flabs!

oh and talking abt hy's videos, i still havent uploaded our batch photo onto my own comp yet -sheepish grin- so you all gotta wait k. am i like the only one with it? paiseh ah.

and let's like go shangrila and haf buffet la.. yah yah i know one of my stupid ideas. heard the line has a good variety.. that i've NEVER tried before. shall we splurge? let's let's ok. in a few months time we're off to sch again :(

hey dears :) i haven't been here in a while :D hui yan! are you going to burn the videos onto a CD? :) hee nic, I don't know where i'm going. hopefully university of melbourne? woohoo! :) hope everyone is doing ok! :) we must go out soon! just that the weather is so unpredictable, ghastly, horrible.. etc etc. unless we all crash some place and stone and talk and be a nuisance! YEAH! :) miss you all many many! :) -HUGS-

hello everybody! =D i finally have a 2-day break aft working non-stop for 2 weeks! (including sat, sun n gd fri full day!) i made full use of these 2 days by sleeping, but i felt more tired after sleeping =(

how has everyone been aft cadenza? is there any recording of our piece? i want to listen! =D anw, do ur still rmb e thing abt e first person to earn 1000 bucks will have to treat all of us at fullerton? i think by now, all of us shud haf already earned at least 1000 bucks, so let's all go to fullerton one day n give ourselves a treat! or any other place, doesn't have to be at fullerton! =D

ok...i realise tt my keyboard is really dusty n dirty, im going to clean it now. bye everybody! =D

umbrella i HATE it that blogger is in CHINESE! -grumps-

by the way have you people met Mr Paper anyway? if you haven't, tell me. i'll introduce him to you. (=

hey let's have a list of people going places! so we know where everyone's going and it'll be easier to keep in contact that way. YES i am assuming we're gonna keep in contact because we ARE GOING TO OKAY.

guess wad. i was dawdling abt this morn, and realised that there is one FABULOUS song tt they forgot to post! zhun's version of wo de jia.. HAHA. cant exactly rmb the skewed version.. was there only one verse? actually i think if anyone ever saw the lyrics, they'd be how irritated.. afterall, it was one of those songs our snrs played for ensemble. heh.

i miss footdrills too! footdrills is challenging!

oh and progessive studies has rather nice duets. duets were kinda fun, tho we din play them often. sadly :(

the gd ol' days...

lol. i'm impressed so many ppl blogged! haha and i'm impressed we haf so many wonderful batch songs. i shall not attempt typing out the song that never ends - i think it'll be rather disastrous. man we should publish our songs. i'm amazed that hy has failed to type out 'motivation'. *shudders* and i love our motto/ slogan/vision or whateva u wanna call it: we're out standing in the rain. i miss all those times. and... ( our jnrs will be HORRIFIED) i miss footdrills lotss!! haha.. we always seem to come up wif our spastic songs/cheers/whatever after footdrill =D well and progressive studies.. amazing how tt has influenced us!! haha esp since it was introduced to us by (was it?) glosz!! ahhh. haha.

SHUNLING it is hello mr PAPER not postman! omg! hahahaha

WE ARE OUTSTANDING IN THE RAIN!

haha i should contribute too:)

i like this cheer that i'm positively sure was from the geniuses of arlin and isabel and huiyan when we were in sec 2.

let's go, come on, let's go! (Go where?)
let's go, come on, let's go! (Go where?)
let's go, come on, GO HERE GO THERE
let's go, come on, let's go! (GO WHERE!)

hmm should post the Comp'03 ones as well

(to the tune of J of GR)
we are playing tales of the sea for syf
it is a gross piece that doesn't make any sense
di tanjong katong is a singapore song
but we don't see the relation between that and comp!

(to the tune of di tanjong katong, tales of the sea style)
masamic aman, he is very good
he composed our comp piece, gr selection
he is very good, did we say that before,
but you must always say his full name amano

then there's the version #2 of progressive studies tune

do you have a problem, do you want to fight
do you have a problem, do you want to fight
do you have a problem, do you want to fight
do you have a problem, do you want to fight

do you, do you, do you, do you, have a problem?
do you, do you, do you, do you want to fight?
do you have a problem?
do you want to fight?
do you have a problem, do you want to fight?

do you have a problem, do you want to fight
do you have a problem, do you want to fight
do you, do you, do you, do you, do you have a problem?
do you, do you, do you, do you, do you want to fight?!

then there's the version #3

hello mr postman, how are you today?
i am fine thank you, do you want to play?

ok i forgot.

haha if you can remember more write it down here!

hello everybody! =D

hello hello! :)
ah aye to xinyi! i feel v fat too. and i've never jogged in macritchie before. ah maybe we could cycle! :D but can we wait awhile? cos i have dustmite bites all over my body and everytime i sweat it gets unbearably itchy :/
but i can't wait to see you all again!
ps. how do i get cadenza tickets? it's next thursday right?

love you all :)

yay! one response. tsemin agrees as long as we don't stay pasty (which none of us are anw o_O)
well it means iceskating is ruled out. but i'm still quite keen on going to mcritchie, maybe jog? (see the monkeys - whee~) or we can like walk along the platform arnd the reservoir, quite romantic ehh, or form our own band and play there (errr). AND i still haven't given up the idea of sliding down slopes in cardboard boxes!! that's so US and that's so RG!! and we can picnic! or we can bum arnd in peixi's house if we get sian.. sounds perfect ehh. lalala, i decline to mention the probability of seeing tons of insects, mosquitoes; the likelihood of rain or even just humidity (ugh). might turn out uncomfortable.

SOOOO who's for the idea? say wheee~

hello everybody! =D i tell you all something scary, but tsemin thinks it's funny.

some guy just called me n said he's starting a business. he asked whether im interested to join! i was like hello i don't even know you! apparently he's one of my classmates' friend n my classmate recommended me! ok...actually it seems quite funny now, but i was really shocked at first.

anw, i didn't realise cadenza is next week until i saw xinyi's entry! oh n coincidentally, i have a full day leave on thurs! yay! is there going to be any rehearsal at all?

aye to xinyi!

whee~ i just realised that the last three entries were made by the husband, the da lao po (big wife) and the xiao lao po (small wife o_O) respectively. hohoho. ok. irrelevant.

i wish paula lots of luck on her first job. and i wish nic luck for her vsepr game o_O and i wish myself lots of luck teaching in rg =P

i can't believe cadenza is nxt wk. it din feel like rg alumni at all lately. clars are still at one per part o_O anw i decided ice skating is good! it's exercise. and i shall ban all bumming for batch outings from now on. as if we're all not getting fat enough u know. i've been just sitting at home, accumulating fats. (eww) so we shall engage in vigorous exercises for batch outings from now on!! yay! those with me say aye!

heys everyone :)
haha i haven't blogged here in ages. anyway who's not playing for cadenza alumni! then you can go for the concert with me -beams- :)
anyway how has everyone been? let's have a batch outing soon :) like i said on the tagboard, let's go ice skating! or alternatively we could do our favourite activity: go to someone's house and just eat and watch movies and BUM :D
anyway take care everybody :) i'm going to start on my first job soon! wish me luck :p
love you all.

whee~ xin is back to reclaim the batchblog!!
everyone is daoing the blog. is everyone very busy with WORK? muahahahhaa, i am currently jobless and freeeee. (ok and bored) so if anyone is freeeee, can date me!! haha. i want to go for a batch outing too! i want to go ice skating and get many bumps and bruises! let's go on a less crowded day ya? does anyone know if the only place to ice skate is at jurong?! transport fee is so ex nowadays. mutters. horrible government. if i want to go nus or ntu i've to spend $5 on transport just travelling here and there o_O how retarded.
xin wants to travel abroad with friends! is anyone interested? maybe we could go somewhere nearr. err like errr errrrr malaysia o_O.

hello everybody! hello everybody! =D dun you all feel warm at this familiar greeting? =D
i wanted to post a few days ago, but i couldn't!!! i thot that clarine closed down e blog!!! haha...now i can't rmb what i wanted to say!

anw, let's haf batch outing again! go somewhere with no sun please! (sorry i get burnt easily and it's super painful) like ice-skating! or we can just sit at lido or watch movie! we shud start planning now cos we always drag for really long! i predict our next outing will be in june. but everyone must come! =) i realise the no of pple turning up for outings is getting less and less (huiyan is sad )=) i noe a lot of things are different now, like most of us are working and busy, but we can't live without each other!

ok, so if anyone has any suggestion, just leave a message somewhere! everyone try to blog too! bye bye! =p

hey. I'M BLOGGING! eh clarine, come out of hibernation la. we know that you exist, and of course you know you exist. no pt trying to disappear off the face of the earth. delusion, that is. really surprised that none of us can provoke you into posting on the blog eh. but i know ur reading.. and i bet you're bound to haf tt smirk on ur face at the moment.

anws. do you realise tmr is the first day of the mar hols. mar hols have been like existent in my life for almost forever. how sad is this. i really wonder how adults can like carry on working with so few breaks a yr, day in day out, and the years pass so rapidly. that's like how boring.

and i also realised that they're having band camp tmr! frm the calendar they posted on the section cupboard. gee. though things have changed, i'd give anything to lie under the amphi, just talking, or even hearing some ridiculous person talking abt his 'infrared vision' again. i'm old, you're old, we're old :(

and i'm so bothered by my uni apps. wad the hell. ok. not even apps, but the preliminaries to the apps. i cant decide, yet pple keep asking. i mean i dont mind talking abt this much, but to pple i dun know well? and pple often express extreme shock at my indecision. so i settled for telling them, eh. fass nus. then telling someone else. eh, ntu accts. i have a great urge to tell those ignorant adults who only partially understand the education system that i'm gg to take medicine. i think i'll be so amused with their reactions. i can forsee it man. those REALLY ignorant ones will go 'ohhhhh, tts soooo gd. yah yah gd choice', or to those who are partially ignorant, 'huh, can ah. i dont think so leh', then they'll look at me as though i'm daft. but do you think i care? HAHAA. what fun.

and its back to work tmr again. monotonous and boring. i'm officially pantry girl :( haizz. oh wells. must be sure to be conscientious at work ok? haha. see you in a wk or two. oh and i was thinking. our batch old photo sharing session a few wks aft cadenza? we havent had it. yeah..

firstly i must announce: i just went out with clarine today!
which means she didn't disappear, much as she'll like to appear to be =)
ahhhhh she's going to kill mee!!!
secondly i must admit i feel schizophrenic. why is no one blogging?
thirdly i hope everyone comes for rgalumni!! *prods clarine pointedly*

and fourthly and most excitingly, who's for ice skating? *beams*
okiie don't ask me why. sudden um urge to ice skate (ok ditto that, sudden urge to fall down a zillion times and get many many bruises so i can't wear skirts for a long long time o_O )

heyy..
ok i guess i should just say hi. i've got so much to say and so little to say that i dunno what to say.
but i urge everyone to come for alumni!! i never realised how much i missed playing in RGSSB!!! until last friday, playing in any other band is SOSOSOSOSO different (esp sywo -ughh).

hey!

here's the RGSSB 2003 opinion wish-list. i'll try to remember what we said

anyway according to an extremely, shockingly democractic vote of the people there that night (liu rui, nicole, arlin, clarine, huiyan, tsemin and i.. did i leave out anyone?), the top 4 choices are armenian dances, elisabeth, shirim and hobbits. anyway there were some other stuff in the running like folk song suite, seventh night, dynamica (!!! sorry haha i realise that i'm really not very fond of this piece), oregon but somehow we came down to this.

oh by the way, the whole democratic process saw shirim emerging as the final victor of the day. unfortunately, apparently the juniors dun quite like it. but, as nicole had repeatedly stressed, this is rgssb batch 2003's opinion. so at the moment, we should not really care abt other people's opinions and be selfish for once. muahahahahaha! let all these complicating unpredictable human behaviour factor thing come in later lah.

of course maybe the list seems ambitious, but after all it is a wish list. so anyone with any input and opinions please feel free to voice it out. after all, we are a group of very democratic people haha! let's have with the discussion and see most of you all tmr night!

(Ok, here were all the choices that were thrown up... please give more input! maybe you might have a photographic memory remembering scores and pieces that are very nice which we might have overlooked)

in no order of ranking or whatsoever

1. armenian dances
2. dynamica
3. toccata
4. el camino
5. elisabeth
6. folk song suite
7. gr
8. hungarian fantasy... HAHAHA!
9. czardas
10. hobbits
11. matrix
12. oregon
13. persis
14. pocahantas
15. riverdance
16. shirim
17. seventh night

haha i'm trying very hard not to give my opinion while listing the stuff... but i couldn't help listing for one particular piece cos i feel a curious sense of amusement yet disgust at the thought of it. haha.
