End of the Holidays

The long weekend comes to an end.

Today, Juan Juan, James, Wai Ip, George, Boon, Bing Yu, Tint Khine, and I went to catch a movie at Great World City. We met up at the arcade, Juan Juan and Bing Yu went on a rampage playing House of the Dead 4. The game rocks. I really wish to own one of those game machines in my house in the near future. :D

Went to play pool and coincidentally bumped into Zhen Ai, Cui Ling, and Eunice there. A girl caught my eye on the way to the pool room. She was kinda pretty and cute, but she disappeared right after we finished playing pool >< Sad...

The movie we caught...



It was a real touching film about love from the family. The director, Jack Neo, directs his film in such a way that you're pushed to the edge of almost crying but end up laughing. It's a real good show to watch with both your friends and family.

The day ended in James' lovely home. His three cats, Elfie, Max and Joby are so freaking cute. If I'm not wrong the black cat is called Elfie and he's so fun to play with. I simply love it!!! Stroking his back everytime he's in the room. But sadly, I'm afraid to bear the responsibility of rearing an animal.

Juan Juan's dad was kind enough to give us a ride home from James' place. Thanks a lot by the way!

Well I shall stop here, till the next time when we visit Mr Ng's house, which is this Saturday.

AHHH!! Next week or so the O Level results will be out!

Chinese New Year

On the 28th of January, I had my reunion dinner with my family at some place near Orchard Road, the food wasn't that bad, just that I hate the deserts. Anyways after the dinner, my brother and I made our way to Cineleiusre to catch Memoirs of a Geisha.

The shops along Orchard Road that hold famous brands, were all closed for the night. You can say that the only Chinese that was on the street was us, all the rest were Malays. While waiting for the movie to start, we went to Starbucks at Paragon for a drink. Guess who we saw? DENISE!! The MTV VJ!! She was with her mum sitting on one of those cosy couches. We sat near them, and all we hear were complaints that Denise was telling her mum. Well you can say we were at the right place but the wrong time. So we didn't get a picture taken with her :(

Memoirs of Geisha was a freaking nice movie. Some beg to differ though. So you must watch it for yourself to judge the film.

Chinese New Year Incoming!

Chinese New Year is just around the bend, and I've yet to buy my New Year clothes! School has been hectic yet enjoyable ever since lessons has started. Looking at Jenna's Biology notes, I was really grateful that I chose Physics over it. They have to learn every single freaking part of the cell!! The nucleus already require one thick set of notes. I was wondering how could I ever survive it, the stupid Bio terms and words to memorise.

Oh yeah we're suppose to go back to QTSS on the 27th for a gathering. From what I've heard, most JCs are going to have a half day, so that the students can go back to visit their Secondary school. As for CJC, Brother Paul said that it's going to be a full school day, as it isn't the eve of Chinese New Year. 27/1 is the eve of the eve, so he does make some sense... Ah... No idea if I will be able to make it back to QTSS.

P.S.
4 people said that I put eye shadow.

Music Industry Wants Jail Time for Lyrics Websites

The Music Publishers' Association (MPA) says such unlicensed publication is illegal and that closing websites and fining their owners is insufficient punishment.

MPA president Lauren Keise said: 'throw in some jail time I think we'll be a little more effective'.

Keise added that the photocopier had hit songwriters and composers' incomes but that the Internet 'is taking more of a bite'.

Keise's remarks follow legal action earlier this week against the developers of software that searches the Web for lyrics. Walter Ritter was forced to withdraw one such application, pearLyrics, after receiving a cease and desist notice from record company Warner/Chappell Music.

The president of the National Music Publishers' Association, another US body, backed Keise's call.

'Unauthorised use of lyrics and tablature deprives the songwriter of the ability to make a living, and is no different than stealing,' he said.

Orientation Finale Night

Just came back from my final day of orientation in CJC, and the activities we did for the night was awesome. Really, it was freaking FUN! Every house did their own performance on stage, including the facilitators. But that was only part of the fun. After which, we did our mass dance which we spent our orientation days mastering it to perfection.

I managed to pluck up my courage and walk up to my friend's friend from Nanyang Girls High. Steff was a great dancer! I was the one cocking up some parts of the dance for her >< Sorry!! Was hoping to take some pictures with her to post on my blog, but yea we were rushing for time heh.

3 cheers and 3 cheers and 3 cheers for CJC!
Hip hip! Hurray!
Hip hip! Hurray!
Hip hip! Hurray!

Catholic Junior College

After being stuck in a traffic jam on my way to school. I finally made it to the gates of CJC. Many J1s like me were waiting at the gate for their friends to enter as a group. Well I bumped into XingCai and his cousin as I walked through the gate, I was so fortunate to meet someone familiar.

First day of school is boring as usual. We gathered in the hall, and learnt some dance which most of the CJC pupils know it on the back of their hand. The dance instructor, Natasha, was so pretty. She was like Shi Qi when I was in Queenstown Secondary 1. Natasha is JC2 though, damn.

The girls in my batch weren't as pretty as I thought. Oh well. Fate. I'm really tired after all the icebreaker games and long talks in the hall, so I'll be heading to bed now! Later people! Hope you enjoyed your school.

A New Beginning

Happy New Year everyone!! I spent the night at Tim's house counting down to 2006. Along with his family, Tint Khine and Boon Chuan. We drank a shot of Raspberry Vodka, and to tell you the truth, all of us found it awful. Thank god Mr Hwang popped a champagne and we were all saved :D

Tomorrow is the day we return to back to school, and I'm totally excited and nervous about it. Hoping that I'll make new friends in the new environment and quickly get adapted to it.

There'll be a school camp in Queenstown Secondary the end of this week. So if you guys want to meet up, come on Saturday morning.

ENJOY YOUR TIME EVERYBODY!!!

TingWei ~ Out!
