Speech Day cum National Day Celebrations
Tuesday, August 09, 2005
as usual with any activities that may be organised by the school, it is going to be one heck of a boring event. this is not an exception.
everyone arrived by 8am (though I arrived by 7.40am) at the outdoor stadium of Jurong East Sports Complex where we are supposed to assemble. then came the long long wait till 8.30am for the marking of attendance and the usual administrative work.
finally at 8.35am everyone is ushered into the cooling environment of the Jurong East Cultural Centre (essentially the indoor stadium of Jurong East Sports Complex). we began with some pretty lame pledge (definitely not the usual one) and then sing some songs and then national anthem and then the pledge before we are allowed to sit down.
after that are the various performances from Chinese, Malay and Indian Dance. though I think they were held in segments throughout the show. then finally some more songs before we are released at 11.20am. I am not too clear about the show as it is so freaking boring (not to forget the floor we are sitting on is so hard and cold) and I cant really be bothered to see what is going on.
finally I went back to my primary school, rulang, to take a look at my P6 classmates and the teachers (of course). the few of us had a very long talk with the form teacher till 2pm, topics consisting mainly academic stuff such as the International Baccalaurete in ACS(I) (whatever its spelt) and Integrated Programme in HCI as well as the NUS High School of Maths and Science (all of which have someone in the class entering). not to forget the usual war between RI, TCHS (Part of HCI) and ACS (I) where members from the various schools (okay there are only people from CHS and ACS (I) ) going into detail on how it takes place and how it is like (for example wear a "ACS Forever" friendship band into CHS and prepare to have it used for kicking or throwing).
and there ends my boring day. the next two days is going to be real boring too. whats more I dont feel like doing my homework, which is incorrigible. some more there is stupid homework which is posted on the computer and we have to complete it and post it on our own blogs too (check http://liang2005.blogspot.com , online chinese homework resource centre for 2/5'05 as well as those 2/3'05 taking chinese in 2/5'05).
I need someone to motivate me to study! note that I wont pay you for the job though. but thinking how my class is equally bad, I might as well drop the idea. what am I saying? okay I am equally confused myself so I guess I shall end here.
