once again speech day finally arrive!
so fast, one year already.
but this year speech day not so grand,
the whole school was quite simple.
picture taken from rui yi's blog
reached school met everyone then went up to 3/8, guides holding place.
got our tunics and fans,
got prepared,
and soon we went to the back of the block c and waited there.
syazwani quickly re-tie my hair there in a hurry,
cos my before-that hair was very messy according to her and phay shuen.
syazwani's work on my head, but it became messy after that
and then she help jolin tie,
also in a hurry.
but her hands are powerful luh,
can tie so neatly.
then we went to the parade ground,
parents came,
visitors came,
the cio played,
we sit there talk.
haha.
then jolin told me bout the hilarious story of today's speech day.
cos we all wearing black,
and the music was so slow and sad,
it was mr ong's funeral,
then got people come attend,
those wearing flower is his relatives,
then somemore still got food to eat.
hahaha.
what a perfect story.xDD
sit there for very long,
waiting for the guest of honour to come,
parents also bored.
finally at dunno what donkey hours the GOH came,
then we rise and started our parade.
wow after our hard work practising its now time to perform.
ok, i was quite dreaming in the whole performance.
but this time my fan din'nt drop!
after the performance the 7 of us rushed to guides den,
got changed there.
ms chua booked a maxi cab and its coming at 10.15.
so we chionged.
got to reach bishan as early as possible,
for our ndp marching selection.
we went out of school at like 10.15,
and the taxi was LATE!
when it came it was like 10.25 already.
so it was our first time riding on a maxi cab.
the extra hand belongs to joe yee
in the maxi cab
then i had to make the most difficult call,
the call to ms hasna!!!
prepared my speech,
recited it a few time,
then i pressed the call button.
it went like this...
"good morning ms hasna,
sorry to interupt,
we're the guides from pasir ris crest sec sch,
our speech day parade has just ended,
and we are rushing our way there to bishan now."
and oops!
i pronounced her name wrongly at the start.
hope she din hear. =x
then bla bla bla...
she said she doubt we can make it there.
bla bla bla...
phew,
finally it ended.
on the way got traffic jam,
took a picture just in case that old school teacher dont believe.
when we reach there the others were dismissed.
we had 15 minutes of foot drill.
!?!?!?!?
we rush all the way just to have 15 min of foot drill.
but at least its better than nothing luh.
i spoiler today,
command given to turn right i turn left.
haha.
they ask us to go back next week,
so i think we're all gonna march,
but is competing for the actual day marching.
cos some would be reserve, some marching on preview,
and maybe a few eliminated.
now im getting more and more enthusiastic bout this,
last time i say i go for fun only,
but now i wanna get in.
after that 15 min,
dawn left with her dad.
so the rest of us went to the bishan stadium "cafe".
it started to rain,
so we stayed there for quite long.
our snacks
got super wet in the rain when walking to the bus stop.
53 came and we board it.
i was hyper on the bus.
jolin keep taking pictures.
and she got one great retarded me.
total madness!!!
ghost me!
i din'nt know she took this.
haha.
i also got crazy pics.
jing yi looks so engrossed in jolin's phone
joe yee and jing yi emoing
went home sleep for 2 hours.
then got up for ballet.
*yawns*,
very tired,
but very fun.
looking forward to next year's speech day...
Saturday, April 05, 2008
finally our longlong anticipated auditions came.
so our big project started with me,
got on 17 the joe yee and jing yi got up,
then alighted at ws pri bus stop meet lindsey and jia ning.
so far our plan still going smoothly
until...
we took 53 and dawn was late!
so we had to alight at her stop.
aaaaahhhhh..
DAWNY!
next time u need wake up call from me.
thought we might be late,
luckily another 53 came bout 13 min later.
forget to tell jolin we're not on the earlier bus,
fortunately they din board that bus.
met jolin and ching ying on the next bus.
phew,
finally all met.
so it was a 1 hour plus ride to the gg hq in bishan.
reached there,
hair up socks up!
caught dawn pulling her socks. hehe.
our long socks!
then with the so-nerdy dressing,
we walked in...
the guide trefoil? cant step on it.
we thought we were late,
bleh! we're early!
then that "old school teacher",
which ms chua said she was the one who choose the contingent, appeared.
gosh!
she's really strict!
then we proceeded to the bishan stadium just nearby.
but we practised along the road.
they asked us to arrange ourselves in height,
wanted to eliminate people.
ok, i was ALMOST eliminated.
jia ning was on my right,
they wanted to cut from me onwards,
then they ask me and jia ning,
"are you all friends"?
i said yes.
the they move to my left where michelle was and asked again,
"are you all friends"?
again i said yes.
then she moved one step after her and cut them onwards.
WOW!
i had a narrow escape.
so we were'nt chosen but not eliminated.
lindsey dont be sad k?
u'll have a chance next year.
it was those army guys that trained us.
omg damn tough luh.
the marching on the spot thingy is energy-draining can.
but its real cool to hear the "bang" when like about 90 people bang together.
so they told us today was just a try-out session.
next week is the final selection.
and now we have a SUPER BIG problem.
next week is PRCS SPEECH DAY!
dunno how,
probably we have to give up serving and rush to bishan after our parade in school.
but its like we kept asking the teachers to let us serve,
and then now we cant serve.
haix.
WHY PRCS EVERYTIME HAVE SUCH PROBLEM?!?!
went to the guide shop for a while for the air-con.
after that we went to junction 8.
dawn, lindsey and i ran our way there,
cos there was a plain path for us.x]
can see the white path behind me?
why my face so red? maybe cos of the run.
we went to mos burger and eat.
joe yee and jing yi had to leave early so they sat for a while and left.
lindsey and my burger
after eating we went looking for a neoprint shop,
but sadly there was'nt one.
so we walk walk around,
wanted to buy something alike so all of us would have it.
but in the end did'nt find anything nice.
we wanted to take neoprints,
so decided to go whitesands.
took us quite some time to find the mrt station.
gotta transfer train,
we alighted at city hall.
and when it was at city hall,
jia ning, jolin and me were like sitting down,
where dawn, ching ying and lindsey had already alighted.
luckily we spotted them,
if not we would we separated.
our reflection at the city hall mrt station
east-west line train arrived,
and we boared the packed train.
lets have a glimpse of our crazy moments on the mrt train...
