080392 Parentheses - An interruption of continuity; an interval. "This is one of the things I wasn't prepared for — the amount of unfilled time, the long parentheses of nothing" (Margaret Atwood). “For every period of time when you exist, short or long, there is a temporal part of you that exists only then. And for any temporal parts of any objects whatsoever, there is a larger object made up of just those parts.” - John Locke "Every time I enunciate 'I', even in my thought, an identity is assumed, and this identity is itself not simple, but a figure of a complex gathering of personal and impersonal histories, texts, discourses, beliefs, cultural assumptions, and ideological interpellations...it is not an artifact but a process." - Richard Dyer

HAPPY 17th JO(14th)!!!!! &Nat too (3rd)!!!!
we did all that during Eat with Class time (which means eating with your year5 class, not year 4-.-). i knew we were quite bad to do this but srsly, when else can we get all 4Fs to celebrate Jo&Nat's bday?! we actually wanted to do it before morn assembly with just a few of us but it didnt work out. so ya decided this is the best time to do it. so rly v sorry to our classes! esp my cls 5P with 8 of us goneeeee lol. sorry man. otherwise, the celebration was great. seeing everyone agn, the familiar faces, the bickering, the jokes. even though it was just a short 10mins thing it was full ofYmy wish is for 5P to be like this too! :D im sure we'll be. HCL Olvl; the tension grew rly quickly once we settled down. could tell everyone was super nervous and some even trembling. lol its just HCL, not even the entire Os and we're shaking like that?! kind of crazy. i got an A2! :D :D :D rly glad bcos ever since stepping into this schl ive always been getting C5/6, not once a B4. so as you can see, i was at risk of taking MT H1 (for those below D7 hv to take it). i even said to some pple that if i get A1/2 for HCL i will just scream and jump out of the roof of the hall, i thought it was beyond impossible. anw, for those who didnt make it, JIAYOU! must get a gd score for it in your Alvls! dont waste your 2 more yrs of taking chinese k. abt the orientation, i thought it was a great success! :] thanks alot to the SCs. the yr5s are also super enthu this yr lor! i hv no idea why. its just crazy. everyone's doing mass dance like finally. i thought our spontaneous bursts of "YESSS" and "NOOO"s when answering to qns are v cute too. Zhixiang even commented that the yr5s are more responsive than yr3s&4s. Wee also commented that our batch will be v close after this whole 6yr thing. i think its true! i hope our batch gets closer and stays a close knit bunch :D when we graduate and meet up we can totally laugh our ass off at what we did during this orientation LOL. That Thing You Do is stuck in my head now. as for 5P, im beginning to love this bunch of pple lots!!! :B we started off quite sian, in our own cliques. but as Day2 came w all that games (i loved the water-in-your-mouth-and-sing-a-pop-song game!!) we became alot more closer and started to mix instead of staying w the same pple. campfire was oooookay. couldve been btr (: i wrote whatever i could abt it in the evaluation form alr so no pt talking abt how it cldve been improved. 5P totally went to CHOPE benches LOL! my cls is so cute larrr. we choped 6 benches then in the end hv to squeeze into 4 cos other classes needed the benches ._. i like our cheer too! that become our official cheer for Day3 hahah. it rocks man, esp the silent version!! :D the friendship dance was craaaazy! we danced w our cls pple, it was very amusing :} then day3 was a whole lot greater, felt as if our cls rly bonded! we were daring to do anythg. the craziest mustve been the minefield whr all 25 of us whether girl or guy just hugged each other body to body, toes to heel, in order to cross the minefield asap. our cls is super not sexist, which is so much like 4F! we do everythg tgt and thr's no separation. & we sat tgt for recess today! :D YAY! that rly made my day, even though it wasnt the whole class (20 out of 25) :D it was so sweet seeing everyone sitting tgt eating after a long day. it rly felt like 4F. which reminds me, Sophia said smthg like "scully we like 5P more than 4F how ah?!" ystd during campfire. lol im afraid it may turn out to be true, but 4F will aaalways hold a special place in our hearts (: yup then at the end of the camp, our cls was awarded FIRST! :DDDout of a whopping 16 classes! we totally didnt expect it! we're a super lowprofile class, NBDY EVEN BOMBS US (WHY AH!). so its v amazing we managed to clinch that. im so proud of all 25 of us :D yay us! Ben&Jerry's (strawberry and choc chip is it?) icecream are in the schl fridge awaiting us tmrw morning! it'll so cheer up our sad Thursday with lessons proper starting (lectures, tutorials, notes & more notes). i loved orientation! wished it was a whole wk instead :[[[ Labels: 4F to 5P |
