~ 9:36 AM ~

week 2 of term 2..

school life is getting into such a routine/cycle that it is so terribly irritating. Every weekday, it's waking up early in the morning, stoning at the same spot in the canteen, going for lessons, waiting intently for the last lessson to arrive and then stoning after school to wait for cca which ends freaking late at 9.30pm (the max) . As soon as you get home, it's a bath, dinner and then time to prepare for the routine the next day by sleeping -.-

Kind of am able to see myself in cixin's shoes after reading her blog about her life in HCI.. ~~sucks~~ at cca, unattachment to class, and feeling like some lone soul. even crappy people like her takes time to adapt, what more it's me. 0.O

Anyway that's just a brief generalisation about school.. i aren't exactly depressed/sad.. so there isnt' a need to ask if i'm ok, or tell me to cheer up.. such cliche things don't work..only when the remedy comes, it will be magical that i become optimistic again overnight. Still look for someone that i can bear my heart to in school, though it seems hard.. oh well..
Come to think of it, every JC is the same.. besides orientation and school events being different, when it's time to study, everyone does the same in different colleges. How fun can studying get, even if vjc is known to be a hyper active school?..

On a lighter note, there was a break from mundane school life this week.. wednesday was AIR (arts in reality) day and yesterday was annual track & field championships 2007. AIR was more exciting than we thought it would be, with lots of events going on in school. Food fest, graffiti on wall, latin cha cha, balloon making, and many other workshops that could be signed up for. 07s56 attended the compulsory workshop - forum drama.. which was actually entertaining.. The people acted out a skit.. Here goes the story line.. (kinda predictable and cliche but nevertheless was fun)

This girl was a typical 18 year old, preparing for A lvls that year.. Father enjoys comparing her grades with cousin.. Girl meets guy on internet, dumb enough to give away her handphone number, gets on car with guy and ends up in tragedy. The amusing part of this whole skit is of course seeing the guy touching the girl's hip in the "car", trying to seduce her ..

But anyway the objective of forum drama is for the audience to watch the skit once, then the actors would re-act again.. and the audience may interrupt at any one time and take over the role of the protagonise (the girl) , offering solutions to prevent the girl from ending up tragically. The arts classes are the daring ones who were so actively participating while the rest of us just sat and laughed..

The event ended with a closure in the hall where there was a display of amazing fire-eating art. As all watch in awe, it was such a wet blanket to be reminded to project work that comes after AIR for J1s.

That's all i shall mention about AIR, moving on to annual track and field championships..

This year's track and field meet is significantly different.. It must have something to do with the people, the college, the participants.. the attitude, the atmosphere, the events..

No one knew anyone else.. people ask :"hey what cca are you from?" All of whom trying to find out where they may stand.. yet in the past it's " hey this year who's owning again?" and the related sort of hey-you-let-a-little-this-year kind of comments.. We all knew one another, even if it's only by name or by face.. i miss sharing my victory with you people.. those who know me so well and can detect when i'm happy or sad.. winning doesn't represent happiness to me.. it's satisfaction that does. I miss the support from you guys, though fellow andersonians in vjc who met me did wish me luck.

JC standard is really different.. in terms of academic, sports, fitness.. etc.. Some can simply join without bothering if they can really run, for the sake of their house points they would join. According to seniors the standard is so high that they feel a sense of achievement just getting into top 8 positions. Though the track meet was held in the college compound, the atmosphere was still rather good i should say.. it rained halfway through the event and the 800m girls continued to run in the rain.. some real sportmans.. =X It's inevitable though that there are people who want to escape from the event (since it's held after school) . Yet, the school seemed to be so well guarded with security guards, CCTV cameras and even councillors on duty to prevent any victorians from ~~climbing out~~ of the school gates.

Then there was intercca relay.. quite disappointing that we (may yee, wanyun, liying, me) got such a bad position - 2nd from the bottom list.. never fared so badly before really.. maybe they should have intercca relays like how it was like in anderson with guys and girls in combination.. =/ which means me feel so proud to be part of ABT.. when we are usually top of the list closely behind the trackers..

nevertheless our bad. guys (chunhan, xijing, adrian, zifeng) got 3rd (4th initially) after bball guys were disqualified for cutting lanes.. congrats.

cheerleading was rather cool.. ursa mascot is cute! lols.. will post pictures when i receive them..
digressing a little, i got this picture from jj's blog..

3/7'05 at sports day..

i wasn't in the picture. i admit i wasn't attached to the class enough to take a picture with them. but when we went up to 4/7 things weren't the same.

i was one of them..

i guess it just means i need time. and one day.. i will appear in 07s56's complete picture.

~ 5:22 PM ~

It's 2nd day of term 2, and the first time i'm wearing vjc's uniform.. guess wad?..

There's p.e. LECTURE today! how exciting can it get right?! But anyway, even with the possession of the BLUE SLIP, college reps are not allowed to pon the PE LECTURE -.- ! They taught us how to keep fit, and plan a training schedule to improve ourselves physically i suppose. And perhaps to prepare us for any emergency cases, decided to teach us briefly how to perform CCR and CPR.

It was quite prominent to stand out in the sea of yellow in the biege coloured uniform, therefore, i was spotted by dear ms lim. Probably having nothing to do since she wasn't involved in the lecture, she decided to check the length of my skirt, in the presence of our very fierce PE HOD mr tan -.- . (Appropriate length being maximum 4 fingers above knee) Is that an attempt of sabotage?

ms lim: come jaslyn, come here..
*displays look of bewilderment*
p.s i was actually in a good mood because everyone that i have told about my blue slip were quite surprised and filled with envy when they saw :

EXEMPTION FROM PE. LESSONS
Period of exemption: 19/3/07 - 31/12/07

*gasps followed by what-the-hell-looks

Being the usual sadistic self, it's quite amusing really to see those expressions on their faces..

jas: ya?
ms lim: wah ur skirt quite short huh?
*starts to places finger on my knees to measure height of 4 fingers.
jas: huh really meh? ok wad?
ms lim : WAH! lidat 5 fingers oso canot! cannot pass la.. jaslyn.. must do something abt it la..
*look of empathy*

p.s. mr tan was standing beside her all the while.. and as soon as the holy one speaks..

mr tan: orh. must be you fold up right?
jas: no wad? *pulls up shirt to show evidence of unfolded skirt*
mr tan: wah no belt somemore!
jas: huh? nid belt meh? i thought guys only?
mr tan: orh. just now mr seet on stage just say belt is part of uniform.. assembly never listen right?! $%^&*(
jas: huh really meh?! *bewildered*
ms lim: eh jaslyn you better go now la.. *shoo me off to avoid more scolding..

-.- .. wads new.. girls have to wear belt too -.- like which girl in the right mind will buy a belt just to hide it when the blouse is folded in huh?.. how interesting to get caught for uniform for the first time.. 0.O

And i'm really feeling too random -.-'' .. It shouldn't be a one-way thing right?.. People might just get frightened off.. zz.. there's still a long way to go in JC life.. And when PW starts, tuesday is gonna be a terribly long day. argh. maybe we should enjoy life while we still can.. which is when PW hasn't hit earth.. that leaves me with only a few more hours of time.. !!

hmm.. maybe i should update about some class affairs. Just to keep those ex-07S56ers updated of life in vjc. we had currently re-elected our class reps.. more significantly the Ct-rep ~~who was so proud of being one.~~ Surprise at how life is really a game, those who want it don't get it and those who don't will get it. Like how samuel wanted to screw up his 5 mins worth of fame by telling a racist joke -.- yet, the class voted him in. While, poor hari, (I should really empathize with him) was shot directly at his face, when people ask him questions..

eg 1.. What do you think is lacking in our class?
" oh.. i think our class don't lack anything, since you guys are enthusiastic, responsive and fun- loving.. even mrs tan (econs tutor) thinks so.. you guys rock man. "

~~*sucking up?*~~

jocelyn: "really? you really think so? what about class spirit? why the class outing only 6 people turned up?"
xiangli: "oh you mean HIS outing?!"

*ouch.. some personal attack =X
hari: hmm that.. *stun*

eg 2.. what do you think are ur weaknesses?
"hmm.. besides being a bit crappy.. or rather a bit too crappy.. i think i don hav many weaknesses unless you guys want to point out to me.. "
~~STUPID ANSWER FAILED HIM -.-~~

eg 3.. use 3 words to tell us why we should vote for you instead of shara
" ehm.. I love 07S56"
-.- .. no comments..

i think that should more than satistify you all in the anti fan club.

~ 2:51 PM ~

This week is the most depressing week since 2 years ago. We see new-comers and leavers, and i finally understand why yy was worrying for all her friends before the release of the o-lvl results. It's sad to see people leaving more than you leaving yourself. Those leavers will get into a new environment, meet new people, see new things and eventually they will get accustomed and forget the past. While the poor people who witness their friends leave continue to reminisce the good old days which they had in their "home ground" during the first 3 months. Aiy. i think i've emo-ed too much the past three days in school and my frens are getting scared of me. -.-' They are all so afraid of the touchy topic, especially doreen. It's really comical to see her feel guilty for making me emo, i feel like laughing despite myself. It's time for life to move on and be happy with whatever we have. Two years gonna pass in a breeze, just like how Yoni is going to return back home to Indonesia in a few weeks time after her two year contract with us. All the best to my dear friends who have left and also the new found friends who have made an impact on me yet had to leave. Though we haven't had much chances to interact, if fate allows, we will be good friends yet to be. I'll be missing you guys. ~~do miss me too xP~~

This week is O2 which was just like past years, made up by more OGLs than participants. Having ponned more than half the orientation, i have no idea how fun it had been for the OGLs. Well, it's always the OGLs (in VJC pe shirt) hyping up the event while the other victorians (in '07 white orientation shirt) looking uninterested. They can't be blamed can they?.. Especially so when most 1st intakers take off with their classes and friends, leaving the pathetic OGs left with a few cats and dogs. The tiny crewlets can combine and form just a crew which is just as good as a crewlet (excluding the OGLs). By 4pm on the 2nd day, it was kind of ironic that the MCs had to thank those who stayed behind and made the orientation a "success".. The turnout of the event was expected since it never failed to happen every year at this time, and the hall was filled with a sea of yellow.. or rather a lake (considering the number of people left behind.) There was nothing enjoyable except that i learnt the OGL cheer from Shara.. If i don't remember wrongly, this is it..

movin in, movin out.
Com'on OGLs lets hear you shout.
That's the spirit we create,
Today's the day we dominate.
Say it loud, say it proud.
OGl.. OGl.. ohhh OGL!

Last monday was vjc's full day off due to good A level results for the year 2006 batch. It was funny how the school paved the way to help Mr Chan announce the desired news. i.e. full day off from school. Even while announcements were made, the teachers were keeping everyone in suspense though we all knew they had known the decision long ago. Even training was set to be at an indefinate time i.e. right after dismissal regardless of time of dismissal. o.O lols..

And on tuesday, JC1 victorians were excused from school due to the JAE posting results. The usual us had a final "class" gathering to send off our leavers. The few of us met up at PS.. and slacked while waiting for everyone to arrive.. Ate Gelare for the 1st time in my life (cause there is special offer of half price.. hurhur xD).. and had a craving for cakes..

winston. christopher. weeho. doreen. amanda. me. mega. samuel. ziyang.

After that we went to play pool at meridian (i think that's what's it's called) after mega left to meet her friends and ziyang left for home, and saw my aunt working there. ^^ went to say hi and those bunch of them had the nerve to ask for red packet -.- bully my aunt. lol..

Then weirui came to meet us...

Took a long time to decide where we should go for dinner after that.. and finally settled on pizza hut.. Hog up their seats for a very long time, playing card games and making prank calls. Doreen can be dubbed the best prank caller -.- p.s. she pranked called twice and once was to brandon. -.- She asked him out and told him that he made her feel hot.. and of course, horny him would fall for it. Right alicia? (lols. doreen's nickname in the phone call.) It was fun lah.. and at the end we started to feel emo.. For it might not be soon that we would see one another again.
Though winston did crash our orientation, and amanda came back on friday.
How long will our "clique" stand together?..

Had heats on friday and was in a terrible mood to run. But eventually was dragged onto the track by shara. -.- I don't regret running though i jolly well know that the trackers in VJ are super powers. 14.67 was my timing, though i have no idea if that's good or bad. It's still the first time i take notice of my timing, cause i never did so in anderson. Competition was less stiff then. Oh well.. we shall see if i qualify for the finals and contribute some house points to URSA.

~ 8:42 PM ~

hmm.. i should keep up with blogging once a week or this blog can turn to stone.

Let's see.. this week isn't exactly the best of weeks. Well.. it's the week of mock narfa.. only the 3 hardest stations (inclined pull-up, 2.4km and standing broad jump) and the best part is, those top 100 for cross need not run!!! lolx. So, while the rest ran, shara, jocelyn and i stood there cheering o.0 and laming with our pe teacher aka HOD of pe. (till now i still can't remember the names of most teachers, which is a sad thing -.-) Which reminds me of how mrs tan (i finally remember her name) was so sad because she overheard me asking amanda what her name was, and that she could remember our names while i cant remember hers. 0.o .. But i can't be blamed can i? All the lectures have different teachers which makes more than enough a hassle to remember them all.

aiy.. not that i want to, but i have been acknowledged as ps-ing queen in class after promising them to appear at plaza sing but failing to do so, and another time when they caught me after CCA at 6.45pm 0.O i sure don't deny that we are fated to meet, but still.. lolx .. and finally, i decided for once, that i should be doing the "right" thing by going to weeho's house today, which is so freaking inconvenient at bedok, in order to clear my name of being a good ps-er -.- . It's was ok. i wouldn't mind staying longer if i hadn't had to leave early. But it seemed kind of boring to me to be cooped up in the room watching movies on comp.

And it was so coincidental to meet xijing at bedok interchange. He was either too tall that i din't see him or i was too short -.- (which is obviously not the case) lolx. must be too distracted, therefore he had to stand right in front of me and wave at my face before i could see him, and of course it was a shock of my life. lols.

There's the freaking chemistry tomorrow, why on earth am i here slacking?.. Pls don't lie to me Ms lim =X grant me my well deserved slip =D lolx.. or let there be full day off from school tomorrow. god bless us all ~

Jae results is going to be released soon.. and i so hope the nice ppl will stay =/

Anyway we had "OG" gathering last sunday.. which ended up lots of people ps-ing the poor organisers at the last min. -.- how sad.

Hi everyone. I should say you must be scrutinizing every part of my blog to be reading this arent you? Well, if you're that bored or interested in me, this is me you're looking at. Just a typical mundane human being living in this distorted world filled with what we call friends and foes. It's just me to get all maudlin and touchy about friendships and covalent bonds that i painstakingly built, and it's most dreading to realise what you call friends are actually fair-weathered ones and ditch you for others. You know.. that sort of ambivalent feelings which arises with such friendships. From young, my pedagogues have complained of me being temperamental and from there i have learnt and seen the world beyond me, where there happened to be people fairing far worst than i do. I realised in this period of isolation that life turns out to be happier for everyone if people knew how to be sate with life. It's just in the genes that human beings have to take things for granted and learn to appreciate things only when they have lost it. Sad isn't it?. I admit possessing that characteristic, which led me to losing what i should have treasured most, with great regrets. Now, like Krishna, we are inclined to seeking comfort from things that we are familiar with, unaccustomed to changes. It may not appear to be me on the outside, braving the winds of the outside world, strong and unbeatable. Like the saying goes, never judge the book by its cover, and i believe in that, in the way i credit people. We all treasure private space don't we?.. It's just human nature. And of course it most dreading to feel deserted by your friends isn't it.. ? To feel cheated and betrayed.. Well, live a sate life readers!
