6.Will have to learn to stop being pushed around. esp where my handphone is concerned.ugh.disaster. also have to stop leaving wallet around cuz of scum-sucking extremely disgusting, ratty and pesky juniors (namely YOU!)
7.Kept thinking about things that should have been but never was. dreamt about it too.freaky.never thought about it for a long time. must be all the stress. Definitely think you belong where you are now. faaaaaaaar away and hope NOT to see you EVER
8.Have looked at the growing amount of things that I have to do and would probably only continue looking at and not DO

Ladies and Gemtlemen, This house believes that Temasek Junior College's DEBATE TEAM HAS BROKE THROUGH TO MOVE ONTO THE SECOND ROUND OF THE NATIONALS!!!
After Four long years, we have done it. They beat Millenia Institute 3-0 and lost to National JC 2-1 but the favour is that they still may go thru because they have a 4 part gain. They have done it. We are unsure at the moment whether we'll get through because RJ has yet to debate with YJ for their second case (because for a smart JC they are really quite stupid.They failed to realise that IN A NATIONAL COMPETITION, they should verify details even if they claim "we do not question authority", as the RJ coach had put it. WHich self respecting debating team would NOT realise that they are proposing the motion TWICE and are not opposing it at all. How idiotic. And this took place, despite the fact that their coach has represented Singapore as a national debator. Obviously a ploy to gain more time because they probabaly feel unprepared. effing stupidity)
saw Jonathan Pflug in an Abercombie and Finch tee. *moan* has lost appeal
Their is also poetic justice when they beat MI because, MI beat NJ and WE beat MI, thereby in a round about way, beat NJ, even though we lost to them. And congrats to Ras!! would love to take credit but hey babe! you won this on your own. Can't really call u my protege.haha.
I know I told them to keep a level head and all but it is soo hard.HAHA. I just kept screaming and screaming. making sure that every TJ person I saw was well informed of the fact that we might break through. I walked from room 101 until the staircase that leads to under LT2 with Qiong Hui trailing me all the way and opened the pages and starting screaming, just whooped for joy and hugged ms ng, in a manner of speaking. Flipped my shoes off at the bottom of the TRC staircase, ran up barefoot(cuz the blisters were just murdering me) burst into TRC screaming in the vicinty of every teacher "TJ DID IT". ran back. waited for ramanan to announce at which point of time I couldn contain the peeping grin that was threatening to erupt.H e took forever! sorry.haha. It was waay too long. screamed abit.did a TJ cheer which I forgot the lines after Say T.haha. and Cliff had to take over.
Thank you to Meg and Josh!!!I know I keep promising to pay you but I will somehow.I really am so glad you guys were there. add another 2 starbucks drink to the growing list. Thank you for ur commitment,your time albeit ur cynical faith.:) and Joshua's "inspiring"-put them in their place- speech. haha. it sounded better n the room than it did outside.and Meg coming down even in times of familal turmoil. and er Andrew who doubt kept Meg in better spirits :) and Josh's broadband connection which prob kept him happy.haha
Thank you to Mr bala who came down on thurs and fri and cleared up the confusion that was present. Thank you to Ms Ng and Mr Veera for being there as well. Thank you Mr thompson for the use of rooms without any problems at all. completely.
Thank you too all the people who are in the debate club. Thank you.
And to my jrs. Keep a damnned level head. u better. u've shown ur capable but next week is impromptu. so yeah. and ur matchup would be much harder.but u can do it.
Thank you all for showing me that "coaching" (part coach) is satisfying. I've bonded alot with my jrs. espcially the girls. seen u guys at ur worst and ur best. laughed with you and shuddered with you.haha.seen u guys at eli's house.(which btw is very nice) cracking me up
Thank you and go get em

Denise says that my blog reaches out to the masses and the commoners because I use simple language. Henceforth, I shall use slightly more advanced words befitting my status.
If you are bored. pls go here. vastly amusing. as haniza says "You can Bastardize anything!".haha.how true.
Have you ever wanted to know everything about everyone you knew, especially the ones you cared for and sometimes when you do know, you just wished you never did.because you do realise why somethings are meant to be that way.
oh god. PMS is getting to me.
I love the world but love as it is meant to be, never is and never will be
Isn't it sad that an age when you are supposed to look at the world through rosy tinted glasses, all we can do is stare at it through the hard jaded eye.And knowing that all of it cannot be easily blamed on a single entity
I putting this all down to JCDC stress.
I want to just sink down and just let go of everything I ever held on to and just be. just for a little while. so that sometimes it's just a little bit easier to breathe. and the pressure just eases a fraction so that I can be a little kid again
and smile with cherubic innocence and marvel at the world as it is without all the other things that would impose upon the space you have that you have created as a kid, in your own little world
why is it so hard?
and yes I guess people do get down and psycho on their blogs

Blog extract:
just heard some irritating news. apparently, some teacher read a student's blog in which she was called a bitch and a whole fuss was kicked up with said student getting a big scolding. the teacher came from a school which is the singaporean equivalent of a us high school, located somewhere in northeast singapore, where the students' uniforms have a distinct faecal resemblance.
my take on this? shoot the f**king teacher. doesnt she have any concept of blogging at all? doesnt she have any concept of privacy at all? firstly, how did she get to access the blog? if she wasnt asked there, she probably found it on her own, and that doesnt give her the right to comment on what students have to say on it. isnt a blog like an online diary, how could she access it and then chew out a student for what is essentially a private opinion?
secondly, with all our emphasis on students' opinions, initiative and independent learning, why are we penalising students when they do exactly just that?
finally, isnt it ironic that by doing what she did, the teacher is just proving that she really is what she s been called.
I picked this up from a friendz blog who picked it up from a JC teacher's blog (not TJ.. god forbid they would write something like this..)
My god.there is a digital god.sometimes it is so easy to forget that your teacher is just not a teacher but a person too and she or he is capable of having a blog too and probably might be reading ours. and knowing about our lives. My god, are we truly never free from them? For all i know, the next anonymous tag i receive would be from a teacher.. but I guess, there is always a flip side in the digital world.You know that when you publish a blog, that anyone could read it and since, teachers are actually not prehsitoric beings who live in caves, but are in fact avid users of the internet, could possibly be reading this. for all i know, YOU ARE A TEACHER! *gasp*
.creepy.
can you imagine a teacher reading your blog and then commenting on it,whether it be on his/her blog or on your tagboard and when you finally find out (god forbid! If you are a teacher *shudder* don't tell me!!!), you will have to censor your opinions and what you truly believe is yours, is no longer private but has free access. Its so suffocating! everything is an infringement of something else in this damn place! Is there no true freeedom? (well for all those who are about to say duh, let me stop u at the 'd' part and inject that it is a rhetoric question)
I feel extremely violated.
(and if you are a teacher,please do not even think about telling me!!! and no, I don't want counselling)
For all those who haven't watched Spiderman 2...
WHAT ARE YOU DOING READING THIS! GO GET TIX NOW!!!! (even if you are a teacher..)
It is absolutely brilliant. The emotional intensity and the anguish reflected cannot be surpassed. It truly reflects the torment of a hero who is torn between public service and his own life, knowing that when he can make a difference, he should but is unable to reconcile to the toll it takes upon him. And the beginning is sooo sad when he is misunderstood. But now that the ending is how it is, I wonder how well would they able to sustain the story. Would it just be a case of the usual struggle between good and evil? I hope not.
And denise is SUCH A PIG! haha.. jolyn too! they kept complaining how i spoilt the movie for them because firstly, when MJ tells Peter kiss me and doc octavious smooshes (made up word) through the window, I said He's coming! or some crap equivelent of that. I would actually acknowledge the allegation if not for the fact , THAT IT HAS BEEN PLASTERED IN THE TRAILER!!! AND NORMAL PEOPLE WHO WATCH TV WOULD KNOW THAT!!!
so
HA!
and secondly when MJ's boyfriend is announced, I whisper I bet that's MJ's boyfriend and I refuse to be blamed because it is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo obvious that duuuuuuhhhhhhhhhh it's her boyfriend. But because, they're deducuction skills is severely lacking, I am the hapless scapegoat.
I'm always wrongly accused and grossly misunderstood
(No thanks to the crap sms-s that are constantly sent to various people in my address book, curiously only limited to guys and more often than not with great professions of love)
If you're a teacher who is reading this who happens to know me and might be marking my JCT papers, please be nice.
