wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee hello!
today was teachers' day! it was wonderful i tell you.
we saw the teachers do retro dance, and they really looked different.
if you were an outsider and you happened to plonk down into our school hall, you wouldn't know that they were teachers :D cheers to the teachers with shiny sequined dresses and white shiny thick hairbands and pretty flowery dresses.
and hallelujah for the female teachers who danced and posed as ladies with men (fighting) over them. HEHEHE. AHAHAHAHAHHAHA.
I didn't think that some seemingly fierce teachers could be so demure and guniang-ish on stage. OMG! :D
And the most exciting part was when tan y appeared on stage and acted as a nerdy guy who tried to imitate the females dancing xD
wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
and our science teachers were on stage dancing the indian tree dance.
you know, like person A faces person B and they both go to their left. and then they go to their right, then their left, and yadayadayada.
Can imagine? :)
Not to forget the montage (is it spelt like that) that was put up:D
we cheered till our throats became sore, hands became numb, and ears became blocked. but, I LIKED IT.
I hoped the teachers liked my present. oohlala.
hmm. today a weird thought struck me. I dont know how it came, but it just came.
I was walking along a path in (oh the wonderful town of) Jurong and this thought drifted into my mind:
If you dont dare to be yourself, and be different in this world, it's hard for you to survive.
Well. Thats an interesting thought. But i think it's quite true, and it reminds me of a certain compre passage we read for chinese the other day. The main message the passage was trying to convey was that-
Those who love to compete with others, use other people's achievements as a benchmark and will always live in their shadow. But those people who challenge themselves, and not others, will be different. Because they try things other people haven't done before.
That's a motivating idea. :D I shan't say more, because i can't somehow can't put my ideas into words. probably because the tv's right in front of me and i'm getting distracted x)
lalala. Now's the holidays. now's the study time. whoosh. So now it's going to all about learning chemical bonding and weather and climate and colonisation and etcetcetcetcetcetc.
ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
studying's good.
is it?
of course it is.
D:
I'm trying to decide between taking chem-bio-adv lit and triple science. I like lit, but i don't know whether i like it enough to trudge through all the essay-writing and extra preparation you have to do before lessons. and also i would be dropping one science subject, and this is something i dont feel very good about. and for triple science, i dont know, but i think having all 3 sciences on your plate would be rather dull. Would it? because it would be all facts, facts and facts. I want to think and analyse sometimes. :/ i shall see.
My bro says that subject options at sec sch won't affect your career path much. Not even your JC subject options can affect your career options that much next time. He says university is reallly the deciding factor.
And he says that if i dont take triple science in sec sch, then i cannot take triple science in JC. But it doesnt matter anyway, he says that the triple science course is overcrowded already.
And one more thing- CLEP or BSP? I think BSP would be good, it would teach you about current affairs and how to communicate with other people, esp with mainland chinese. But-would I understand what they teach? My senior says they rattle on in chinese and talk about cheem-ish things like the relations between countries. :S
Or CLEP? where i learn more about cl lit? I think cl lit is ok, as long as what i annotate is SHORT and is NOT A LONG LONG BOOK like hong lou meng or shuihuzhuan or things like that.
But if i take BSP i will NOT take the scholarship. Because it's too binding- you have to continue BSP in JC and you cant apply for Humanities Scholarship then. (not that my humans very good also lah....)
I think if i just follow my interests then i'd take chem-bio-lit-bsp. But if i er, how do you say it, if i consider other factors like how wide a job scope the options provide, then i'd take triple science with either bsp or clep. haha.
Hard to decide, career options VS interests (or maybe its a whim)
I hope that they let us take triple science +adv lit! then i wont have to think so much.
AND OH! GO WATCH RATATOUILLE! its a funny show. For foodies, there's a lot of talk about good food in there. For romance freaks, there's a love story included.x) if you are both, then thats brilliant, the show's made for you. :D
nothings better than a good long journal entry after an exciting day (:
BYEBYE.
