| Yoz yoz, 2 days nv see me online...miss me anot. Haha. Ghost den will miss me. Anyway, ya, AVA camp juz officially finished and the farewell party oso went on "smoothly" last night too. So...ya, gd lor. So alot to blog bout today, lets start from AVA camp day 1. *****AVA Camp Day 1****** Everyone gathered outside dance room at 7.50am. We J1s are expecting this camp to b kinda fun like filled wif games n stuff but ya, we r obviously disapointed. Maria was late coz he juz returned to SIngapore that morning from China. So ya, we hav to wait for her b4 reporting to the classroom coz we need full strenght, Anyway, the whole camp is a learning camp la where the seniors pass down almost everything we needa know so....haha. First, we learnt hall system again, this time more indepth. We took the whole morning, which is like....woah. Oh yah, we oso went to e recording room inside dance studio to familiarize ourselves to our "future home" in ajc for the next 1.5 years. We oso learnt something bout Ulead which is quite fei4 actually but den no info is useless rite. So its e best part of camp....lunch. Well, perhaps we overestimate this aspect coz we r rather disapointed wif lunch. Haha. Undeniably speaking, the food sux, utterly sux. But ya, muz learn to b thankful wad....so bo bian hav to eat. After lunch we learn audi system which again we r quite familiar of, juz dat this time more indept, den we oso learn something damn cool ..... live feedback. Its something like live telecast thingy where u can connect wadeva u r filming at one end of e sch to a mini satellite, which transmit to another satellite connected to the projector or visualizer and it can b shown in e hall or audi. Cool rite. Xian chang zhi bo leh. So yah, very fun, dats e most fun thing la, in ava technology. So....we ended at bout 5 where me, maria n jeremy go j8 n prepare to e bbq e day after. (For more details, read my previous post). *************AVA Camp Day 2*************** As usual, everyone gathered outside dance studio. I carried e bbq stuff all e way from home to sch. Yah, so does other pple that r responsible. Everyone is in farewell BBQ mode la, but den, we still hav a learning camp to attend rite. So firstly, we learnt outdoor system. Outdoor system is kinda ma fan la, coz we hav to carry 4 big heavy speakers that weigh bout 10kg each and fix them up on stands (hey, we r doing work against gravity, the speakers gain GPE...dortz). Den we oso muz bring mixer, amplifier, equalizer wadeva wif lotsa cables. I tell u, i hate the cables, they r so ma fan, both to uncoil n coil. But ya, its wad we needa know. So we locate ourselves outside PE dept where we start blasting music (after we learnt how to handle e system). And den i think it disturbs e teachers inside la, so Lim Kok Wee n Aurthur lim came out to see wad e hell is going on. Haha. Anyway, we den hav to set up everything right from e scrach outside e audi as well as outside e hall la. We r given time limit oso...so fun. I tell u e speakers r damn heavy....i still dunno how e hell we got them up on e stand. But ya, its a success. This took us the whole morning where den its lunch. The J2s ordered from e same stall again n of coz, needless to say, e food sux. Haha. After that we hav an external guy to come giv a tok on video production. This allows us to skip afternoon PE. So nice. That guy is an ex ajcian la, and i think its one of e earlier batch considering his age. (Ooopps) So he tok bout how we shd start filming, how we shd produce professional standard video n stuff...but ya.....i still managed to keep myself awake. So the talk wad like chao1 shi2 lor, we r suppose to end at 4.30 but we ended at 5. Die, lesser time to prepare for farewell BBQ. So immediately after e thing end, everyone of us J1s chionged to our destination to prepare for our BBQ. Haha, yup, we muz develop e sense of urgency in us. ***********Farewell BBQ************* I dunno bout e rest but i shall tok bout how me, maria n jeremy prepare for e party within e short period of time. The 3 of us chionged down to bishan J8 by MRT, managed to reach there at bout 5.15pm? So we went into e NTUC, where i grabbed a basket, and start shopping for e food. The bulky stuff we brought earlier on e day b4 rite, we let tony n desmond bring them down to east coast pk first la, coz desmond rich ma, got private transportation. So we went to e chiller section where we bought sotong balls, crabsticks n stuff. Den went to BBQ section to buy charcoal, which to our surprise, happens to b lighter than it seems to be. So ya, we basically finish buying our stuff. So we proceeded to e Pola cake shop to collect e bdae cake we ordered the day b4. I think we managed to do that by 5.40, so we ran to e bus interchange to take a bus (service no. 55) down to East Coast Pk to meet wif e other grp of J1s. During e bus ride right, there was this grp of students, whom i think r younger than us by 1 year or so, sitting infront of us la. Den this guy in green kept diao-ing us 3 la, juz bcoz e 3 of us talked abit louder...juz abit only. This caused maria to b very bu shuang of him la. Den i was like...ok....xi shi ning ren better. Anyway, we took a damn long bus ride down to east coast pk. We alighted opposite Tao Nan School where we walk across e HDB flats n across ECP using e underpass. We arrived at Marine Cove where it started to rain, to our dismay. I mean, b4 that e sky alreadi damn black le. So bo bian, e bbq still hav to go on. We quickly go to our pit where Tony n desmond they all alreadi started to fire. Maria quickly ran away to hide the surprise bdae cake. Well, i think things r quite obvious le but ya, true, Des didn really notice anything bout our surprise. Oh yah, i muz mention bout how nice Des's parents were to help us alot at e BBQ, even bought us extra food, we r damn so touched, serious. Thankyou auntie uncle. So yah, as e drizzle continued, e fire starting process continued. We placed our bags at the shelther that was occupied by another grp of pple, they r so kind to let us place our stuff. Anyway, it was 7 when e seniors arrived. Me n maria went to fetch them at Marine Cove. Well, i can tell they had a hard time locating the venue. Thanks to me, perhaps. Hahaha. So ya, as more n more seniors arrive, we proceed on to our bbq process. It was quite fun la, actually, all of us really enjoyed it. The rain even stopped, to our likeing. Well, as e sky darkens, lightnings can b seen far away at the sea, which i joked that "ava farewell party got natural lighting effects somemore". Haha. But we r quite lucky not to b striked by any. So ya, soon (well, not very soon coz it was alreadi 8+ to 9), the teachers arrived. Erm....however, we didn really hav much food left for them but ya, they still get their share. Den suddenly maria n i played MIA la, obviously to prepare e cake for desmond. So as we walked towards e pit wif e cake in her hand and e umbrella in my (quite a funny scene), e candles extinguishes. Hahahaa. So funny. Yah, Desmond was kinda surprise la, den everyone sang happy bdae song to him. Awwwwwww......e cake was rather a small one, and he noticed our wordings. Hahaha. So cut cake, blow candle, wadeva, we enjoyed melted choco cake. Duh. Den Maria suggested we play games (well, not suggest, coz we plan them b4 hand). So yah, we played zong ji mi ma lah, where e dio-ed victim gotta drink some strange concortion comprising of softdrinks, curry, wadeva disgusting things u can find. Haha. Yucks. We managed to victimize Mr Eugene Ng oso. Hahaha. Can sense the disgustment, really very disgusting. However, he very sporting la, he finished his special cocktail we prepared. Next, we played sissor paper stone, where e winner can splash a cut of water on the loser. Its kinda adapted from some taiwan variety programme la, but who cares. Everyone got wet in e end. So ya, after much enjoyment, its 10pm. Everyone started packing, some left alreadi. The last few of us left e pit at 10.40pm where we took e same bus 135 home. I reached home at bout 11.30pm la, not as late as i expect. Yah, we enjoyed ourselves n i trust that e seniors enjoyed themselves too. At least our efforts r not put to waste. *************AVA Camp Day 3**************** Nothing much happened today. We had our individual situation test. All of us are to individually set up stuffs in a very short time. Yah, very stressed la. We got 5 stations, that includes hall, audi, outdoor system, live feed and one more, that i forgot. Anyway, marks r counted la. Obviously, i so lan4 how can score well. Hahaha. So that took us e whole day. We oso had group test la, where we got a series of events happening minutes after another n we gotta get the stuff ready. Haha. That one is like, almost like mission impossible la. In one of e preparation, i gotta prepare outdoor lightings la. So i gotta climb this shakey laddar to hang 3 heavy spot lights n drop lights outside e hall. Wa, i tell u, i was like shaking la, not bcoz i too weak to carry the heavy lightings up, but bcoz i scared they will drop down n kill someone if i hang them too loosely. haha. Very scared. The pple around me oso very scared. Yah, basically that was e most difficult part la, and we were not taught on how to hang the stupid light up there lor. So yah. After everything, we got movie screening cum pizza dinner at dance studio. So yah, left sch at 7+ and went home straight. So here i am, back from AVA camp. Lol. Wif that, cya !!! (Long entry sia) |

Juz watched jue dui superstar. Very disapointing. They made it sounds so glamorous, comparable to idol but den none of e audition clips tickled me to laughter. The judge r oso not fun de. All act like mr nice guy and try to b angels fluttering about the audition room sprinkling warmth and kindness. Ya, i understand that this is e kinda judges needed by the contestants but then dont mediacorp knows anything bout good television effects? "Crazy" judges like simon cowell n ken lim that dares to fault others r good for tv. Thats wad e audience wants to watch. Duh...nvm...i will not yet boycott the show but ya, still think the first episode is very disapointing. On e whole, i still think they r trying to make it Singapore idol chinese vers juz that they change e name n logo to avoid paying copyright fee.
So yup, dats all. Looking forward to this sat's SVA discussion. And oso muz start hunting for souveniers for J2s during farewell party. Hmmm....ok lor, cya !!!

Its holiday !!!! Yeah...cheers....yeah rite. As if i am happy its holiday. I am not bored at home, i dun feel bored, i juz feel pathetic, yes, PATHETIC. Holiday is sooo empty for me, esp when i am an anti-social freak. I think i hav been a homework-clearing machine for the past few days...ya, basically clearing hw. Plan to clear them by first week. My rationale for doing so is so that infomations in my mind wont go messed up when i study for my mid yr later on this holiday, ya, esp when most of e hw r bout things that r not tested in mid yr. Sigh.....i am now waiting for afternoon PE...so sian.... Seriously i dun hav any plan for enjoyment during this holiday. Ok, perhaps e primary sch clique outing is scheduled on e 3rd week...dats all i guess. I initiated a SVA discussion session for the other pple involved in this competition outside at orchard rd so shun bian can go play pool...but the details hav not yet to b confirmed. Everyone is busy la. Now i find another problem...when can we do our survey for PW. Its like theres not a time that is convenient for e 5 of us. 3rd week of holiday got AVA camp....and YESH, 14th june is farewell BBQ evening...the first event we new EXCO organized. Well, not all, we left e president out of the planning process coz he shd not b involved, we hav special plans for him. *evil grin*. I hope its gonna b a success. And i think our poor VP is damn so stressed, she non stop activity from e first day of holiday till e end of ava camp (AB camp, china trip, AVA camp), which is 2.5 weeks. So i hope she wont plunge into depression again. Oh yah, the teacher in charge says he will donate some money for e farewell party...yeah...at least wont worry bout ava falling into financial crisis. I am oso quite worry bout e stupid alpha list thingy. Sigh....WHY MUZ THE SCH PUT US PPLE IN ALPHA LIST. Yes, we MUST attend some stupid courses that adds up to more than 20 hours. During the briefing last week, the teacher incharge say we muz attend 2 compulsory courses out of 3 choices and 2 elective courses, which r oso compulsory...and i was like duh...as if i got so much free time. And the courses varies in duration. So everyone were rushing to sign up for e shorter one. And e teacher incharge says the sign up booklet can b found in her pigeon hole...but guess wad...i went down to her pigeon hole for 3 days and ITS EMPTY. I was damn pissed off lor, is like how e hell am i gonna sign up when u say i MUST sign up and u r so lazy to even put e booklet in ur pigeon hole. I am sure alot of u all share e same grief as me, ya, esp pple like kenneh....complaining to me everytime e issue is brought up. Dunno la, i think e system kinda ....dunno wad la...is like shd at least giv us a choice whether to agree to b in it anot...sigh...and term 3 got PW courses somemore...hell heck....i am not so free u noe, even if u giv me 1 week no sch juz attend course from morning till afternoon i think oso not enuff. So ya......dats wad bothering me for e past few weeks....so i guess i will continue clearing my hw...wif dat...cya |

Everyone was expecting Marianne to b president. And the most shocking thing occured !!! Desmond was president, Maria was VP. Seriously, i was stunned at the very moment it was announced. As much as i "object" the results, on the other hand i muz respect the teachers' and EXCO's decisions. So ya, i'm done. Haha. For once i understand the fact that i cannot control my fate....so let it be ? Dunno. Fight ? Cannot la, next time in uni la....haiz....i very luan4 now....i feel dat i am so useless.... |

First, i wanna state myself clear...I AM NOT INTERESTED IN HOUSE EXCO WADSOEVA !!! Anyway, i think i will norminate e next house captain base on e criteria of capability, leadership and most impt, in good physical shape, coz it has something to do wif sports.

Ok, next, GP !!! Mrs Siva is leaving...sad....and Ms Tay, our new GP teacher, is coming on tue...and guess wad, we r having a class debate. The class is splited into 2 groups and each grp muz hav 3 speakers. I tot i am out of e danger zone when pple start saboing good speakers like Lucia, Jasmine, etc who r in my grp. But i find myself in danger, equal level of danger as others when the rest decide to use Open Number Game to decide e speakers !!! And the always very unlucky n suay me got it !!!!! NOooooooo.....why everytime me...everytime open number or oh-a-peh-a-som always dio me one !!!!!! I am really a suay-kinna man !!! Nvm....i will see wad i can do....
Lets tok bout wad i did today...i basically clear my trigo 3 tutorials, my econs tutorials and i bought a new econs file. Its bright orange in colour. Very eye-striking. Yup, all my subj files r of different colours, partly for easy differentiation and partly oso to make my book shelf look colourful n nice. Haha. Lame. I oso bought a new pair of jeans...coz i am surviving on one pathetic pair for e past one yr...nvm....wad else.....oh yah...toking bout clothes....lets tok bout my class tee shirt. Its gonna be wore during be-urself day. Its gonna b hot pink colour....to my objection but ya, "marjority" of e class voted hot pink so be it....practice of democracy. Dunno la, i am not saying i am skeptical bout e voting results but i shall learn to luv it since its my class tee....
Finally, i shall end my ranting here. I noe i am being very lorsoh today for toking n ranting so much insignificant stuff but ya, allow me to coz i am under high stress level. So ya, dats it...cya...

Bell rang, sch ends, so happy. Haha. So i met fellow AVA members Maria outside MPH when later Jer & Eve join us. We go AMK Central for our "first offcial AVA lunch"...weird, ok...Tony joined in while we r juz about to leave e sch. So we walk all e way to Mac and hav lunch. By the time we finish lunch, we decide to stroll back slowly. It was already 2.50pm and AVA starts at 3pm. But we tot its nothing impt so we juz slowly stroll back...so as we were strolling, near AMK library, it was 3.10pm when we received a call from benj (AVA secetary). HORROR !!! He ask us why we were late and told us that the teachers r alreadi waiting for e EXCO interview !!! SIAO !!! We were not informed lor, den is like being late will giv e teachers bad impression of us. So we quicken our pace n manage to reach the waiting room at 3.17pm where the Prod Manager anxiously wait for our presence. Haha. Our worst fears were confirmed when we were told dat 3 of e AVA teachers incharge were waiting in e com lab to interview every single one of us. HORROR !!! Panic sia. Haha. so we quickly make ourself look more decent, put on tie n stuff hopeing to remedy the situation. Lol. Den our Prod manager oso warn us bout e interview la, make us even more nervious, i wont elavorate on e warnings. Haha. First, eve went in, in minutes time, shes out. Shock, so fast !!! Maria went in while me n jer spend e time adjusting tie. Den its my turn. I try to hide my nervousness....so i greet e teachers and e interview start. Dunno wad happened la, but at times i am lost of words to answer their qns...they say they hav high hopes on me, dunno whether its bad or not. They ask me why i let Maria b e president instead of myself, i nothing to say, juz anyhow fabricate some reasons dat she is more capable than me (which is obviously true). Den ask to show why she is more capable, i really dunno wad to say....haha. Then they ask me how to coordinate the club if i am given my post...blah blah blah...scary...i was damn nervous...e teachers' little actions caught me even more unprepared. After like 25min, i'm out of it...sigh....finally its over. Dunno wad will happen to me la, perhaps i will b given my post i apply for, perhaps given a higher post, perhaps not...its all in e hands of e seniors n teachers.......sigh...nvm. So dats all, gotta go dinner. Cya !!!

Haha, so basically during their final rehersals, i didn really do much job. Haha, coz i am supposed only to film e actual thing, remember? But ya la, still got help a little. Haha. Marianne was like sian sian e whole day. Coz we didn get e gratefulness we r suppose to get from others. So dats bothering her. Aiya, dunno la. The other J1s hav their EXCO interview today, so me n jeremy-aka-saigang went to "crash" their interview. Haha. Ok, 6pm, pple started streaming in. I got a cam that has LCD screen SPOILT !!! So bobian, hav to view thru e hole, very straining on e eyes. Haha. Stood thru-out e whole performance to film it. Like 1.5 hours standing at that position.

| Yoz yoz yoz, had AVA EXCO interview today. The process was long and boring, i mean e waiting time. Firstly, we are given a form to fill in, like wad post we wanna be, wad leadership experience we hav n stuff. Ya. Den we will hav to wait in e waiting room while we are interviewed by all 4 of e EXCO member one by one in another room. Well, my experience wasnt a good one. I find problems expressing myself infront of e exco members, but i still managed to state my stand n stuff. Ya. And thanks to michelle whom used the term "servant leader" during zhss SC election, i decide to use the term to state my stand too. Hahaha. I dun think the excos are impressed by me but we shall see the results. I think Marrianne hav a high chance to being e president of AVA, dunno. At least i wrote her name down in e form on who i think fits the bill for wadeva post. Hav faith in her. Haha. So ya, the interview wif many many questions ended wif a xin li ce yan, i.e. if i were to bring either an apple or an orange back to e waiting room to share wif my fellow J1s, which of e 2 will i choose. Haha. Me and marrianne choose orange, e rest choose apple. Dunno la, but i think all questions r crucial lor. Ok, all e best to e rest of e J1s to make it into e EXCO list. With that, cya !!! |

Yoz yoz, saturday night. Very stressed, got maths n econs test on mon, and guess wad, i haven study !!!! Ya, u all wont believe me but true enuff, i haven start studying, didn study alot. Woke up at 7 this morning, wash up, hav breakfast, change and set off to sch. Yup, needa go back to sch on sat for CLDDS performance rehersal. We AVA pple muz assist them. So i reached sch at bout 8.10, saw Peow Ee, he was going back for CO. So as i proceed alone in the quiet n soul-less building to e audi, tony arrived. Went to control room where marianne n senior weijian came. Bascially, CLDDS hav their full dress rehersal today. I do not wish to comment much on their performance but ya, we r juz helpers. So we help them set up mic n stuff, and guess wad, we bcame very free. They hav pple to do the sound system n lighting (which i dun see a reason why ava pple shd still b around) and so me weijian n tony played chess. I oso managed to finish my GP newspaper analysis there coz i noe i need time at home to mug for test. Senior weijian left us in e middle of e thing for AVA EXCO meeting, which i guess its to choose the new batch of EXCO. So left wif e 3 of us J1s jagaing the whole thing. The rehersal ended promptly at 12.30, so we decide to hav lunch together. We went to Mac, where e AVA EXCOs are having their meeting. So we went in to "disturb" them. Haha. Very funny. So we basically walk past them many times and i think they r quite "irritated". Lol. Had lunch in mac and we chatted a little. Yup, this is e way to bond AVA club members tighter. Haha. After lunch, we went to ka-chiao them one last time b4 we went our seperate ways. Haha. Walk to AMK lib where LYY was waiting for me there. He want me to help him out in some phys stuff la. But den, how much help can i be to him rite. Haha. So met up wif LYY there, he didn change alot, juz more particular bout his hairstyle dats all. We cant find a seat in e cafe, so we juz make do wif e sofa on e 2nd floor. So ya, i "help" him out wif his phys, at e same time, mug my econs test. I brought my econs file out e whole day. After that, we went to Popular bookstore where i needa buy some hole-paste thing. Dunno wad u call dat la, is like when u file notes into ringfiles, they tend to tear at the hole la, due to much flipping, so i buy this sticker thingy to make it more durable. Wadever. YY wants to buy redspots bk. Dunno wad he is up to la, but den, he didn really find anything for himself. After that, YY bought himself rotiboy n we went our seperate ways home. Reached home bout at 4+ to 5. Bathe, change and start mugging for tests. Well, i flip open e notes i feel like sleeping le. So i spend e whole evening downloading n printing econs presentation slides from IVLE. Decide to study from there. Dunno whether effective anot. Sigh...dunno la. dun feel like studying but failure may start knocking on my door. Haiz......STRESSED ARH !!!! |
