MERVYN:
YOYOYO! Thanks for being such a Siao friend of mine! 10 weeks of suffering sitting beside you was horrendous but to be truthful, it was kind of entertaining. Sorry when I whacked you with newspapers because you called me "Mariam". (KILL YOU) LOL! Another thing I want to apologise to you about is that you got ..... on my birthday partly because of me! Sorry! And lastly, Bringing you to the wrong movie was a sad case! My Bad too :) But thanks loads for being such an understanding friend! :)
Quote for you: A friend with a special personality is unique. like you!

Surprise!

Hello all!

Firstly, receiving that tag from Wei Jie was a big unexpectance, I want to use this chance to apologise to Wei Jie and Trevor for not being able to make it for the meeting that day! Had something last minute on the next day. I remember about the Super Budget Airline thing that Wei Jie and I came up with. Till now, I still think it was kind of cool and unique.

The crazy 2 weeks at China last year with the 3 other TMS girls and 4 Nan Hua guys was really etched in my mind forever. The fun and friendship formed there was indeed one of a kind experience that not many will chance upon. Really hope all of us still can remain good friends as years past! Of course, we will definitely meet up next year after O-levels! Good Luck! :)

Back to the usual updates...
I stayed at home the whole of today to revise on my subjects.
Only went to E!Hub at night as my parents suggest to go NewYork NewYork to eat dinner.
I am glad to know the ending of Little Nyonya already! Pretty expected I guess (:
And of course, Countdown is tomorrow! For young people like us, we should all come online and add eveyone to a similar convo and countdown together! (Who says that countdown must be in a place with crowd to be fun?)

I shall leave my final post of the year till tomorrow! :)

Fun Day!

Went to school for council meeting and followed with Student Leader's Convention Meeting with the executive committee of the other 3 leadership groups.
Guess everything went find except for a little misunderstanding somewhere.
We went to KFC to chat a little and settle my dinner as well.
Felt a little moody as I had a couple of things running in my head,
moreover I am kind of lost about some things.

Nevertherless, I, Joelle Chin Hui Zhi, hereby declare that everything as of 1st January 2009 will throw and flush away any nonsensical stuff and promises that nothing in this world can affect me in anyway! I am sure I can do it!

Enough of that. I have indeed made up some decisions and as I thought back, I felt quite stupid to be so affected by such minor stuff that does not really matter anyway. What's most important is the current job I am hold- To be a good and obedient student! :)

Now waiting for my friend to receive a call from her mum. To that friend:
Do not worry too much girl, things will be fine and stay happy and bubbly as always :)

Talking to 3 crazy and fun-loving people now! :) My Buddayeeee, Rassssiiii and Rukkkkuuu!

That's all for now! Going to do work again! Toodles! :)

Things I'll never say

As I looked through the past 2 months of things I have done. I guess the holiday wasn't so bad anymore! :)
Firstly, I remember finishing my homework by November and left December to be revising and relaxing.

It was quite a fun holiday where I managed to bond with my buddy (Timothy!!!) and of course other councillors! I guess the feeling of having all councillors together can be really fun. We chatted and evaluated about many things where all laughters were mixed together as if it was a joyous season! Really cool!

Thanks to my dearest buddaye for being such a thoughful young guy and who always tried to add as many councillors as possible to one conversation to make it more fun!

Thanks to all my dearest councillors for making my life in council such a meaningful and unforgettable one. Will really miss those times we spend together!

Most of all.... Cannot wait for school to start! It is going to be a brand new year again :)

Sometimes, I don't know what to say

Hmm... I really don't know if I should trust you anymore
You lie, do you know that?
You are getting different, just like someone I don't know
Life is about looking at things in the better perspective
I tried, but to no avail
I treated you like a good friend, or I shall say best friend
But things have really gone haywire.
I don't treat you like a stranger
Hoping that things will go back to normal
You do not want me to feel sorry
But you want
It sounds quite complicated
But that is life
I tried to look at it in a simpler way, but of no way out
I shall learn to trust no one but myself
I trust my own instinct and
I will walk my own life through
With no one else to obstruct
You are no different.
I am sure I can walk a better road without you
I am Sure!
I don't know what motive you have in doing all those
But I no longer care
Cause all that matters is that I have others who really care! (:

(Nice post? I just wanted to write it for fun!) :)

MEETING UP WITH JEH

WHERE'S A?!?!??!
Amanda had to celebrate her dad's birthday and thus cannot meet up with us.
So sad right? :(
So met up with Hui Ying and Elise at Marine Parade Community Library to exchange gift and of course to do some revision and tuition homework.
We had so much to talk about just now, it seemed to be never-ending
With stories that ranges from daily life to friendships...
It was really an unforgettable experience and I really treasure it considering the fact that we hardly met up due to busy schedule in council,tuition and work(:
Time flew super fast
Reached home at around 6pm to find that the card both of them gave me were very sweet.
"Hui Ying and Elise.... Sorry that I didn't give you a card! No time to write"

So... I am going to dedicate a paragraph of words to them and thanking them for being such good friends of mine!

To both of you:
Thanks for being such great friends. I remember we all started to talk and became good friends in mid-year of our Secondary 2 year through the Vietnam trip! It was really a great time spent together especially when we went to the rooms to chit chat about life. Besides, having a hard time doing that "Pau-A-Li-Cious" animation was really a killer, especially for a computer idiot like me.. But I was really glad to have been able to go through the hard and pain times with you all and of course, never forgetting the FUN times :)

HuiYing aka Lim Thung!:

Yoyoyo babe! Thanks for being such a crazy and lovable friend all these while. Although we only get a chance to really talk once in a blue moon, however, those are the times that I will treasure for sure! Besides, it was really cute of you to put blu-tack on the photos (I can now paste it on my board)! I feel really honoured to have a friend like you and we shall all work hard for our O-Level next year! :)

Elise aka Alice aka Eliseeeeee!:

Yoyoyo! I will never forget how you wear your polo tee with your knee length pants! It looks really cute! Really nice to have known a thoughtful and caring friend as you always are :) Really thanks loads for that cute letter/bookmark you have given me! I will be laminating it! Anyway, hope to be able to go out again one day where the 4 of us will enjoy ourselves and chat through! :) Pleased to have you as a friend and work hard for our O-level next year too! :)

Love the both of you :)

Parents ain't ATM machines!

For people who reads the forum page in The Straits Times...
There used to be this article that talks about parents not only to be ATM machines for the children but also a medium to inculcate good morals and values to young children.
Towards this article, I support exactly what the author wrote. Parents should not only be people who give pocket money to their children and just leave them to settle themselves the whole day. This will make children feel unloved by their parents and thus increase tendency of juvenile delinquency. Parents should really learn to take a breather off their job load and take time off to accompany their children.

This will really cut down the unacceptable behaviours in school and in public. I am sure that as long parents cultivat the right attitude and morality to their children, Singapore will have a bright future oath with many good citizens in futre:)

St- Hilda's Secondary School

If you read the newspaper today, you will learn about the news that St.Hilda's Secndary School is planning to upgrade their 20-year-old school with additional facilities that includes 2 indoor sports hall and a rooftop and hockey court.
I feel that it is a good plan to construct those facilities because it:
(1) Gives a larger platform for the students to try different kinds of sports
(2) Prevents students from skipping PE lessons due to bad weather
(3) Students get to train for their competitions with different sports at one go (save time)
(4) With more practices, there is a higher chance that they will win in competitions
(5) It can be opened to the public where people in the community can come together to mingle
and do sports together
(6) Can collect rental fees from the residents and money can be used for other purposes

It can be clearly seen that by constructing that it, it benefits the pupils, school and community :)

New EZ-LINK card!

I bet most of you already read in the papers to learn about the latest e-link card that has multi-function.
I think that such a new concept for EZ-link card is really interesting and advanced. Not only is it meant for us to pay for public transport fare, but also for drivers to pay Electronic Road Pricing (ERP)costs. It not only makes it easier for every driver, it also reduces the need to make a cashcard for the sake of paying the ERP cost.
Another thing mentioned that caught me was the "stickkey" concept that might be coming out middle of next year. I am really looking forward to it as it is a fascinating thing of how so many vital parts can be fit into one small card that can even be hung on the handphone.
This idea has made me understood how fast advancement if progressing to the extent we are unsure of it too.
Therefore, we should all study harder and be flexible to embrace such modern technology in future :)

Computer Addicts?

I have recently read an article regarding computer addicts...
It is really sad to say that the highest percentage of computer addicts actually comes from the teenagers. The main reason behind it is that teenagers have much more free time as compared to that of an adult that does not have time due to a pile of heavy work load.
I hate to read news that talks about different real-life scenarios revolving around computer addicts. For example, many family problems aroused due to all the computer addicts causing riot and disorder to the family. It is really sad and devastating to hear all these kind of news. Not only that, worst cases that includes murdering others due to teenagers unable to differentate themselves from the real and virtual world, making them have a misconception that they are superheroes to save the people. This is when their attitude changes and turns into a violent human that is no different to that of a serial killer.

In such cases, it is really hard to reduce if the society don't work hand in hand to stop teenagers from getting addicted to computer.The most important role is actually played by parents where they have to keep a look out on their childrens' gaming habits.

"Letting out steam"

I am just going to blog in general about what happened...
For anyone who is reading this post, I am NOT directing it at anyone.
If you people think you are so great, then why do that kind of thing?
We are upholding what we have as our dignity and also as someone who is well respected
We ain't wild, we put on out best behaviour at all times
We ain't pushover nor are we for you to look down on.
PLEASE! GO WASH YOUR FACES!
LOOK AT THE MIRROR!
AND REFLECT!
You people so need it. Sad to say :( awwww
Wells, maybe you all need a little wake up call that goes...
"PEEEEE" to wake you up from the horrendous illusions you all have
No one can save you all, SAVE YOURSELVES!

p.s. I am not directing it at anyone, it is just a random post(:

Singapore Flyer

I believe all of you have read the newspaper about the Singapore Flyer. The sad thing that happened where 173 people were stucked up there in flyer for 6 hours straight without ventilation... Worst of all, people on the top level cannot get any food!

Towards this article, I really pity people who are stuck in the cabin as they cannot do many things even when nature calls, they will still need to bear with it. Worst still, the young babies who are crying for milk have to suffer in hunger and only portrat it through their loud hails of cries. They are of tender age and already have to be in such sad plight. For old people as well, they have to suffer being trapped in a place with no ventilation and food despite getting on their years.

Besides, I also cannot believe the way those people were rescued- by abceiling around 11 daring people down. I am sure if i were present there, I would not have the courage to actually get rescued by that way as it is really high frm ground floor. Should anything happen, I am sure they will not be able to survive. I will really sympathise on those who are lowered down individually as they get separated by their family members.

ARTICLE

Hi Mr Toh, as promised, this is an article review in responds to:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7758204.stm
I am just wondering why are there so many weird and horrible natural disasters going around the world nowadays. It may not cause deaths to some cases, such as this flooding case, but it still brought about inconvenience for the people. This includes them being unable to live the normal lives they had in the past. Now, they have to go against the flow of the flooding waters, ,making it tough for people to walk or travel on pathways. I feel sad and sympathetic for people in Venice who are victims of this flood because their lives have gone haywire. Besides, it also takes some time for them to adapt to the current situation the place is facing.
I believe if people in Venice work together, they will soon be able to overcome the problem they are facing and soon return back to their normal lifes again(:
