hello(: your treasurer is here to update you about class fund!

from CNY street market, we earned a total of $86((: thank you all for the effort! special thanks to:
eric huang who came up with the idea of selling meatballs and bought them, together with the sauce.
may who bought the cream for the sauce.
zhengshan who bought the board for advertising the meatballs.
and many others who were at the stall to help out, grabbing people to buy our meatballs etc.
otherwise, our class fund would have remained negative._.

HERE COMES THE IMPORTANT PART!
the $25 that you each paid, was $20-GP and $5 class fund. so, the $20 from each is already gone and each of you has only paid $5 for class fund as of 2009. do understand that this is not enough to pay for our notes which are not cheap (e.g. photosynthesis notes was $50.70!), that's why your treasurer has to collect another $10 from each next mon, 2nd Feb.

moreover, class fund was actually negative as of end of last year and the class fund owed people money. after reimbursing everyone, we currently only have $44.05 in our class fund-probably not even enough for our next bio notes-.-

yup. please understand that your treasurer is not out to rob you, but just collecting money for you so that we can all have our notes on time(: so! dont curse/swear/get upset, smile:D ok? remember the $10 on monday! thanks a million:)

reminder on behalf of bio rep:
complete bacteria and virus tutorials by next wk 1st bio tutorial
bring them and their lecture notes to tutorial
bring along bio holiday assignment
Mr Nah will inform us when we have to bring the bio file for checking

that's all for now:D
have a nice weekend!

((((: HELLO

2009-01-01T21:30:00.003+08:00

okay im bored too. and whos that person who blogged. ANYWAY, HAPPY NEW YEARRR. another 11 days more and we will all see EACH OTHER AGAIN everyday. (HOW happy IS THAAT) (:

anyway, found a photo from class chalet.

enjoy whatever's left of our holiday! (: see you guys soooooooon.

guess who?!

2008-12-29T00:56:00.000+08:00

HELLOs:D

guess who! i haven't posted here before, so i decided to post at least once before the end of this year! you know, 2008, 08s76, should post in 2008...get what i mean? HAHA. yup, so everybody should do this! to revive our blog(: HEHE.

i just visited ARES blog. it has moved! to http://aresrocks.blogspot.com do visit it! it's muchmuch nicer now, in my opinion(: and i tagged for 08s76! tag again((x haha. our class shall spam Ares's tagboard!

actually, i am typing this post for the second time because i published my post just a minute ago and i dont know what happened to it._. so i am going to be smart and copy this post before i try publishing it again...i am not noob k! bs got problem! HMMPH.

anyway, i wanted to play the guess-who-i-am game:D wanna play, wanna play? let's give you some clues:

1. i am nice:D but i didnt receive any present from Santa this christmas:( WHY:( maybe os i dont have a chimney! BOOHOO:'(
2. i cant think of a second clue...so i am thinking of a third one...
3. by now, maybe you already know that i am a bit lame._. but i am not k! not really((x HAHA.

are you going to read on? please read on:D it's quite sad if i am actually...posting for myself to read:( so make me happy today, ok? do a good deed:D

hmm...i actually had to search my email for our CT's 6th email to us, so that i can find out what the username and password are((x yup! then i made an amazing discovery! that we actually have a class email! if you still remember((x as you should know by now, i am kinda bored, so i went to check our mail! and realised that someone sent an email asking us if we want "leopard skin or zebra skin"! AND! Santa sent us an email which says, "Santa wants your photos for a slide show"! don't believe it? check it out!

if we had sent him some photos, maybe we could all have gotten our christmas gifts from him! and and and...we could have been part of his slideshow((x you know, the one that he plays at his factory every christmas!

so! lessons learnt:
1. do make use of our class gmail account, if there's a need to. (although there's hardly a need to._. but remember that it's there!)
2. do take more photos in 2009 because we have soooooo few in 2008! so few! we dont even have one (except the class photo taken at the banner painting area) that has ALL of us in it:( BOOHOO! let's aim for more next year, ok! so that we can send photos to santa and all get presents((x HAHA.
3. if you happen to be as bored as me, do post here((x it's kinda fun:D

hope you had a merry christmas '08 and may you have a happy new year '09!

so...do you know who i am?
HOHOHO. so fun:D

2008-12-25T23:01:00.002+08:00

As it hits 11pm on 25th dec, the elves take a break from toy-making, santa gets off his sleigh and gives his bum a rub, the reindeer are escorted back to their stables to smoke more flying crack and sandra wishes 08s76 a Merry Christmas.

Hats off to ZS for doing up the blog layout (nice SRP withdrawal syndrome (: )

Sleep well and don't feed your homework to your dogs

P.S. my house is open for a small class gathering one day in jan if anyone's up for jamming.

Spot the differences.

2008-12-16T18:16:00.002+08:00

The great thing about procrastination is that it diverts energy into doing things that wouldn't get done if we didn't procrastinate. And so, this blog has a shiny new layout whilst my unfinished SRP paper rots in the deep dark recesses of ~~hell~~ my computer.

Apologies to the two people missing from the photomontage, the exclusion comes despite sifting through all our class photos to try and include everyone. (See, this is what you get for ponning class events.)

The layout is quite juvenile, though, hope you all don't mind.

2008-11-08T12:08:00.002+08:00

HELLOOO!

Thank you all for turning up for class chalet/BBQ

As for now, rest well, take care and we'll probably organise more class outings in the holiday so hopefully can see all of you again..

BYEBYE

Li Ping (:

FLOWER ARRANGEMENT (:

2008-07-01T20:25:00.019+08:00

For the past month it’s been jokes, laughter and good-natured teasing. I wasn’t too enthusiastic about flower arrangement anyways; I mean what’s up with snipping flowers and placing them in appealing ways? Andre was teasing me about being a florist. I told him to focus on his upcoming Physics test. Should have said I would ‘arrange’ a beautiful bouquet of white carnations soon after. Then Clarence came along to wish us good luck, GYX and I told him not to get too many bruises while being the ball in his (bowling) sabbatical. But we’ve got buddies there like zheng xian, eric huang and xin hui. And the chess titan GYX. So all hope is not lost. Then came the rumor that Ms Ooi was going to be the one that teaches us how to arrange flowers. Petrified, shocked, stunnedddd. It adds a whole new perspective to what Ms Ooi is altogether; apparently she takes photographs of flowers, but we had this super patient teacher, Pauline, to guide us.

Earlier today Able prayed for me during prayer meeting, when I was ranting about my sabbatical. He told me that God always has a plan in mind for you, whether you like what you have or not, God always has his way and the outcome is always good, even though the process might be a little arduous. He said that although I might not be too enthusiastic about flower arrangement, it might be God’s blessing, and it really was. (:

We were confronted with the most difficult task of the day; tying ribbons. Marianne said she loved to tie them and it would have made my task a lot easier if she were there. Anyways, zheng xian and I were rather dejected, disappointed and preoccupied. He with his magic book and myself with die hard 4.0. GYX was clearly putting in loads of effort but his ribbon didn’t seem to be going anywhere. Xin hui helped us with the ribbons although I had to redo the knot and the loops before I attached it to the bouquet.

pretty ribbon eh?

impressive and neat folding...

Which gives the bouquet an overall 'slim, slender and neat' look (zheng xian and i brought similar pairs of scissors)

xin hui's bouquet juxtaposed to mine. i'm sure you can tell them apart

i'm not too good at arranging flowers that are eye candy head on, so i chose the most advantageous view (zheng xian still reading his "magic" book)

Oh, and the likely reason why i screwed up the arrangement of the flowers was because when i was in the process of doing so, Ms Ooi gave me my chemistry paper. [ZOMC WTS GGXXBBQ] x10^imba excessss. Yep, and an additonal reason why my bouquet is still nice is because flower arrangement is abstract art. Each design is unique and speaks a thousand words. Every orientation that the flowers are in reflects the creator's state of mind, mood, flavor, feeling...

what an effervescent mind at giving excuses for a not-so-perfect job...

GYX's arrangement of flowers was most captivating, but i don't have a picture of it.

twist 3 of these wires into how tropocollagen looks like

will give you bad blisters on the tip of your fingers. It's no easy job, but I did it especially slow. Ms Ooi, who started later than me did it faster, but it's not easy. It's not easy at all. Believe me.

Our next activity involved twisting 3 shiny wires twice before connecting them at the tip (by twisting them), leaving a gap in the middle. Then, we had to "fill" this gap by connecting the 2 wires with another wire. Urgh, either my description is horrible our you are hopelessly unimaginative, and I'm inclined to think it's the latter. Anyway, an effective way to visualize it is :

1) twisted mangle of 3 shiny wires at each end = phosphodiester backbone

2) connecting wires = nitrogeneous bases + hydrogen bonds

3) final product = replication bubble with hydrogen bonds between bases intact

(((:

but I hated the biology test so much that I had to rebel, I couldn't carry on making this stupid replication bubble, I'll go nuts, I won't spend my entire day getting my fingers sore just to get this bubble done

so..

i made a heart

................it's all crap henceforth..............

and a star which is like the sepals of my vase. the gaps the wires cris-crossing the heart makes are fragments/pieces of a heart, which means 'brokenness', 'failure'. Joining the broken pieces together signifies courage to pick up the 'broken pieces' and carry on with what you believe in. Flower making is artistic. It takes a lot of creativity to come up with a masterpiece. It takes courage to be able to say, "I want to create something new" and the revolutionist, although faced with much opposition and derision initially, will eventually become the center of attraction when people start to appreciate your work.

and replicate it

it signifies love and a passion for your work.

the heart is folded

like a mother's loving arms, protecting the beautiful and delicate child/artwork, and it being a majestic awe-inspiring masterpiece too

looking good even from behind

taking pride in the things we do, no matter how small they may be is important in having a sense of satisfaction when it is completed. An additional input of passion helps in transforming your artwork into your dream masterpiece.

Hello all (:

Time to blow the dust off this blog *phwee!*

I haven't spoken to any of you (face to face) except maybe 2 of you... since the start of the holidays. :/

So here's wishing everyone much luck and encouragement for the upcoming exams! Give yourselves a pat on the back for diligently studying since the start of the holidays :D (much unlike what i've been doing but - ohwell)

And if anyone's up for a chill'out moment after exams, you're invited to my house for a fun time of Guitar Hero and DDR (yea, i'm still living in the 20th Century :P).

Till we meet again next week (:

:3)

2008-05-19T11:25:00.001+08:00

She was standing across the road in this bright green frilly dress and her favourite white hairband. Then I was like OH CRAP. Our dearest Chemistry teacher stays around the same area as me! Yea she was like STARING at me and I was like half awake and my hair was in a mess. SUPER SCARY. I was super super frightened.

Hahahahaha okay that was freaky. Jiayou for Math test. (:

2008-04-12T15:00:00.003+08:00

helloo,

please please pleeease bring $10 for class fund on monday.

We're running out of money again as only six out of the thirty dollars collected previously was used for class fund. soo the new notes, printing debts, birthday cake debts basically depleted it. erm fyi, the class fund balance is -$1.80 currently.

Eric

2008-04-12T14:14:00.002+08:00

hey gents of s76 listen up! (ladies this can apply for you too)...

ares for the win :),
timo

2008-04-11T22:46:00.004+08:00

Hi,

Just to check.. Do you all want me to photocopy the extra handouts that Ms Ooi gives me, e.g. Chem Prac practice questions and answers? Coz the $10 that I collected only covers lecture notes and tutorials. Hence I need to collect $ from Eric for these extra supplementary stuff. I have been photocopying these extra stuff coz I think it's easier for everyone to study if there's a hard copy at hand. Alternatively, I can scan it in and send it to your emails, which is FOC, but I'm afraid the emails might bounce and some ppl might not receive it. Some might have printing difficulties too.
So, do you want me to photocopy these extra stuff in future or email it to you all? (: Yall can tag on our tagboard. (:

Thanks.

Emily (:

2008-04-11T07:57:00.002+08:00

yay yesterday's jts was quite the success wasnt it? even though only 15 seniors turned up, i think it was much better planned than stj. even though the seniors burned a HOLE in our pockets by like buying half of swenson's. i guess what matters is that we had fun. ANYWAY, here's wishing marianne and derniese ALL THE BEST in their election campaigns which kicked off today. and hooray for NO GP TEST tmr muahahahahaha.

on a side note, i love this season's american idol! yeah we have our little following in class, but for those who didnt catch last night's episodes, i thought these 3 were immense. oh and btw, just fast forward when paula abdul gives comments she's like high on drugs, god knows what she's rambling about.

2008-03-25T20:49:00.002+08:00

hi all!

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:

GP DIAGNOSTIC TEST ON FRIDAY!
i've very painstakingly (heehee) typed out the question and all the stuff our dear teacher printed for us just in case any of you didn't get it! so DON'T SAY YOU COULDN'T PREPARE AH! as follows:

A writer to The Straits Times' Forum page has said of you: "Selfish, spoilt
and apathetic- Singapore teens see only their own petty problems and not larger
social issues like pverty." Defend yourself and your peers.

stuff to note:
this is a sweeping statement and is unlikely to be true for everybody
you could well be 'selfish, spoilt and apathetic' - but in all
situations?
are all your problems 'petty'? might you in fact be suggering from one of
the 'larger social issues' yourself - or be the cause of them?
you could actually agree - and then explain why you are that way,
effectively shifting the blame to someone else
you coud demonstrate that you are not apathetic by showing good knowledge of
say, poverty, and being familiar with how singapore tries to solve this
problem.
unselfishness- could this be proven by examples of how you and your peers
have actively given help to the poor?
parents today can be rather indulgent, but spoiling occurs only when
indulgence results in bad behavior and an attitude of entitlement. Do you behave
like a spoilt brat?
the main problem here is self-centeredness, which gives rise to selfishness,
apathy and an attitude of entitlement
This assignemnt is to be done in class, during a three-period lesson. you may
prepare for the assignemnt with some research and may refer to your notes and
sources.
Other requirements and conditions:
Your answer must be EXACTLY 500 words long (like omg
right ><)
it must be gramatically accurate with absolutely no errors (we're only HUMAN!)
your answer will be considered on-time only if it is on-target
grammatically. if after a cursory examination, i find one error, you will have
to correct i- and will thus be late. tardiness carries its own penalty
If you are presently uncertain about grammar, use shorter and simpler
sentence constructions for a start. Use only words tha you really know. Use your
dictionary
If i am satisfied with your answer, your task ends. if i am not, you will
re-write it until i am. I expect a revision in 24hours
Attach this brief to the top of your assignment (a.k.a if any of you don't have this piece of paper, ask me to
photocopy for you BY FRIDAY)
Unfortunately for you, you have to accept this mission. And this message will
not self-destruct - so no excuse for not getting the work done!
C.

so yeah! there it is! and ONE MORE IMPORTANT THING! don't forget to hand in your money to Eric James for newsweek and the (very reluctantly bought) file! and once again, for those under FAS scheme, you have a few steps :D :

(if you haven't handed in your money)
1. hand in the the original total sum MINUS the newsweek subscription money (ask Eric James how much that is :/ i don't have my calculator with me now :D)
2. sms/email the teacher in-charge (Ms. Lim- limyh@hci.edu.sg, Hp:96905137). indicate your name, class and tell her you're under the scheme.
3. live happily ever after (:

(if you have handed in your money)
1. get the extra back from Eric James
2. sms/email the teacher in-charge (Ms. Lim- limyh@hci.edu.sg, Hp:96905137). indicate your name, class and tell her you're under the scheme.
3. live happily ever after! (:

yup!
see ya'll at jts tomorrow!

much love,
sandra

Guitar Concert

2008-03-22T20:59:00.002+08:00

Hey ppl,

GUITAR CONCERT is coming! 26th April!

Anyone of you guys want to be ushers? You will need to be free on 26th April itself and most probably 22th April for the rehearsal. CIP hours will be awarded.

winnie :D

2008-03-22T12:00:00.000+08:00

hello boys and girls!

ok the carnival thingy sounded damn fun...or at least more fun than being stuck in the stupid auditorium for 3 excruciating hours listening to boring ex-hwachongians saying the standard cliched things about being proud to be back, blah blah blah. and the food at the end wasn't worth the wait either. so pity poor me, sfan, waffle and quinny. BUT, at least it came with a great book that showcased what we all wrote in our testimonials. wait till you guys see raphael's one (weird is good?!?). anyway, here're some pictures of me and tzinwai and a few others abusing a poor teddy bear:

and here are some shots of will tan sleeping during PW lectures. ngoh was sleeping too but he was too far away for us to take. yepp, PW is just an utter waste of our time.

AND....on a side note...

26

XD how many could YOU take?

so enjoy your weekend (with no econs homework) and have a happy easter!
timo

2008-03-21T21:24:00.000+08:00

Hey s76,

I need to collect some moolah from you guys & girls.

Each of us has to pay $18.10 for newsweek subscription in term 2 and $5.30 for the GP file. Plus, class fund's balance is currently -$24.

Thus, can everyone please give me $30 asap? If you're a home subscriber of newsweek, just give me $12.

Thanks!

Hello all!
A10 has come up with an idea to have ARES SHOELACES. (We'll be the first faculty to have our own faculty shoelaces! XD) But before they pitch the idea to the fac comm, they want to know what other Aresians feel about the idea. Basically, they plan to buy red, white and black shoelaces (you can mix and match the colours) and print the word 'ARES' on them. There are three pending designs, which are:So it would be good if you could leave a comment saying a)whether you think its a good idea or 'I'll buy if got lah' b)which colours you prefer and c)which design you prefer. Thanks! :D
