2 January 2003
Today is the first day of school after a month's holiday. I am rearing to go to school today, partly because there would be an Orientation Camp expected to last for 3 days. I go to school with friend and we arrive at school at 7 am. We see people in the Orientation T-shirt giving away cards with the theme of the Orientation printed on it...it says 'Ad Astra', meaning to the stars. Queer, i thought...haha! I enter the hall and instantly I am greeted with buzzing noises of excitement on the first day of school. I look around and join my ACS (Barker Road) friends. Soon, a lady steps on stage and her voice reminds me of my former teacher...haha! Anyway, I soon got to know that she is the discipline mistress of the school, Madam Tham. We soon watched an Orientation Video. Funny, i though...haha! Next, we sorted into our Orientation groups via IC number. I got into Oldham house and Aquila OG. I soon got to know my OGM's and we played some games before we had the famous Mass Dance...ahah...it was very tiring but fun...oh no...we have 3 dances to learn altogether...Well, very tired now...shall continue tomorrow...GOOD NIGHT!
3 January 2003
I go to school at the same time but there are much fewer students in the hall. We have to sit according to our OGs and i approach the row...only 2 people...and both are girls! I mm slightly shy...arghh! Stupid me! Nevermind that. I get to know those two...they are Li Chen and Ying Ai...hope i spelt their names correctly. Soon, we learn the second mass dance...oh forgot to tell you..my dance partner is Jane...anyway, the second dance is much easier to learn and less tiring...phew! We had treasure hunt in the afternon...Bleagh...tiring it was to have gone round the school...very exhausted now...oh yeah...we did preps for the Big Bang for tomorrow night...our item is quite nice...After school , part of the OG went for dinner at Holland Village...saw loads of RJC people and we played truth or dare i Swensens...Kena twice...first time i did a dare...to dance in front of the RJ people and not only that...but I had to shake my but...ah nevermind that...second time, not so bad...I was asked to choose between soccer or girl...chose girl...haha...serious...Well, signing off now...gotta go and sleep...
4 January 2003
Today, we leart the last dance...prankster...so hard! Argh! Anyway, we did a rehearsal for our item for tonight...turned out quite well...haha...hope we win...oh did i tell you, Pei Shan and Li Chen 'voted' me to be Prince Charming...gee...means I am acting tonight...haha...nervous. After the rehearsal, the whole OG went out for lunch. Then we got dressed for the Big Bang...we sat in the canteen whilst it was raining and Kae Sian was so funny that I kept laughing and I had tears flowing out of my eyes...haha...Pei Shan and Li Chen said that my laugh was contagious...haha...are you laughing too? Wierd! Oh...the postings for our class were out...i got into 1AH...i counted the number of people in it...to my horror, it was less than 20...first time in my life am I in a class with so few people...but there are its advantages...more fun actually, less noisy (I hope) Big Bang went on well ,except that we had to sit on the wet basketball court...bleagh...the performances were damn good! Mark acted as a sissy...damn real...then he said he better remember how to become a guy...haha! I left school at like...11:30 and reached home at around 12...got scolded for being so late...well...gotta go to sleep now...Good night!

Well yah...so peace out for those out there who thought I wasn't staying...hehe! Still doing the CVs now. Monday is the submission date for the CVs. Well, have to go and rush through it now. Gotta go off now! Join AC and be swept by its current...a warm and gentle current, which would bring you to a place of fun, excitement and experience. The ACJC experience...
5 March 2003
Oh Amin, please get well soon yah and do not worry about us...peace out and stay happy!
Sigh...so many days of poor sleep due to the CVS...but today, I finished it all! Finally! Anyway, we persuaded Dawn to stay in AC...yah...she did...and so did Michelle too! Love you guys!! Unfortunately, Wei Ming decided to go to RJC but I understand him. He is a Rafflesian and he has many friends there. Furthermore, the teaching system there is better than that of AC but seriuosly, RJC lacks one thing or at least, is not as good as that of AC...its the school spirirt...today, our orss-Country boys did us proud by coming in first for boys! Although the girls' did not do as well, it is an achievement for us. Congrats to all! Well, better catch up with my work liaoz...till next time...cya!

Hey hey...today was a slack day...fristly, we had swimmnig PE...went up to starting black to do a real plunge...quite fun yar! Then, we had Marhaini for 2 periods...Wilson & I had planned to sneak in chocolates to Mashren'slecture but then Marhaini came and thus, had to save our chocs but Wilson thought of a smart idea-to eat during her breaks...haha! Probably people were wondering why Wilson & I always got out during her breaks...hehe! Ok...then, we had a hint that ACJC was5th in ranking this year for the A level results...that was a pleasing thought! From 8th to 5th, unsaddling TJC...for the 2 periods of GP, My Kelly Koh was busy with the preperation for the release of A levels and thus, did not have the time to come in, givig us 2 periods to eat. Then, chinese was next. We hoped that our chinese teacher could be caught up in the release of teh A level mother tongue but fat hope lah! Double Austen was cancelled due to release of A level results and we got to go home at 1455! Tomorrow also can go home at 1455---project work...Oh, today on Channel U, I saw Mrs Valerie Wilson on TV...told Mr Koh about it! I also saw Elizabeth there..haha! Gotta go now! ACJC once again has done us proud...Thanks J3s...

23 March 2003
Hey there! Yesterday's Red Blue gold was fun...the food wasn't too bad, except that the satay ran out too fast...gee...yesterday's highlight was probably the auction. An ACS flag was put up for auction and guess how much it got sold for...$900! It went to the 3 generations of scones who chiped in the money to buy. Rich kids! Anyway, school starts tml. Looks like th hectic schedule is about to resume...rats! Have fun yar! Okie...gotta go now. See you in school!

See ya!
3 April 2003
Hey hey...my apologies for not typing in my entries for the past few days. Have been busy upgrading my computer lately. Cost me a bit though, but it was about time. Anyway, the holidays are getting boring now, since I have exhausted all my options to do several things. Cannot go out due to SARS and no homework cos the holiday was impromptu. Heh! These are the very few times which I really want school! You gotta agree with me right! Anyway, I am jsut sitting here at home stoning whilst waiting for my broadband to be activated. Arghh! Gotta wait for another week!! Nevermind that! Singapore has done a good job in containing the SARS virus. Excellent. Well, I hope you woul make full use of the remaining holidays, be it to play or rest. Good health to everybody and take care!
5 April 2003
Hello people, school closure has been extended and we will all go back to school on the 9th of April 2003. Well, I have been waiting for this news for quite a while and hoping that I could go back to school there is simply NOTHING to do at home! I mean, most of you would probably agree with me cos we had no work to do and sigh... For those of you ardent soccer fans, Wednesday morning, 3 am our time, there would be a soccer match between
anchester United and rivals Real Madrid. Be sure to catch this match. I tell you why. You lose two hours of sleep and gain two hours of enjoyment but if you miss it, you will be gettign ten hours of insomnia cos you can't sleep! Well then, hope you people can find something to keep yourselves occupied, till next time, tata!
8 April 2003
Hey hey, yesterday, I thought my broadband was ready andI kept trying...until I called up Pacnet and they brought me around in circles until they finally told me to try again on teh activiation date...that's tml!!! I cannot wait.. Tml morning would be the soccer match..2:30 am...cant wait also. Hope that Man United would win. Well, tomorrow school would start and sigh...so would be the class postings.. Take care then!
