This is me...

So after that, Si Jian, Gabriel, John Tan and I went to KAP for erm.... supper??

This is my twister fries.... So long......

Gab Chua bought a 'large' coke instead of a 'medium' he wanted. This is the DIFFERENCE!!!

COSPLAY people..... FANTASTIC!!! I am too scared to be direct and ask for a close shot.

So I came across this article and was very shocked by the story. This 4 month old girl died after she was prescribed a wrong dosage of medicine from the pharmacist. How appalling! She was born with a hole in her heart and diagnosed with Down's syndrome. Her mother fed her daughter with 10 times of the normal dosage the pharmacist instructed her to. She definitely had no idea or a single clue what she was doing. She killed her daughter, unintentionally. This is definitely very painful for her and she will breakdown miserably. I think that this mother will never forgive herself as for killing her closest kin and a pure soul that she mothered.

After reading this article, I think the pharmacist should be charged with murder, not manslaughter. As a pharmacist, it is a very crucial job and all the patients' medicine are under your control. You ought to have the basic responsibility to make sure and be assertive of the drugs you prescribe to your patients. Any negligence or deficiency amidst the progress and someone's life will be in jeopardy. This pharmacist killed the girl; he is unforgivable. He did not abide by the principles or the ethical morals of a pharmacist and a human being. He did not complete his job seriously and devotedly. He did not treat lives as lives. He is unforgivable.

As for the mother, I believe that she is totally innocent and did not expect this outcome coming as well. All I can say is "Move on with your life, don't stop and feel guilty." One will certainly feel sad when people related to it dies or meet with misfortunes, moreover if it caused the accident itself. But hey, your daughter will surely know that this has nothing to do with you. Don't blame yourself for this anymore, live happily for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow... for both your daughter and most importantly, yourself.

I think that it was Heaven who took away this girl from her mother. Heaven had given her a disadvantage in her life right at the start, now Heaven wants to give her a new life...

Hi guys, this is just the second week since our lessons officially started and I already have so much to share. So most certainly (without 100% guarantee) I will post on Friday nights about what happened for the past week. Interesting stuff, and more interesting stuff!!

SICK!!!FLU....VERY BAD FLU!!!! So I just took an MC and stayed home. After 4pm, when most of you are back, I started worrying about school. So I saw Junning who logged in MSN first, and immediately nudged him. On Monday, there was IS (first lesson), History (first lesson), Music (first lesson-didn't the worry at all......), Math and Chinese. So, Junning told me that Mr Koh was taking us for the first term and when I logged in to SMB IS board, I saw an assignment and a project. Junning kindly told me the codes of the assignment and due to its difficulty, I figured out in no time! Basically there is 2 files and all you have to do is write a series of numbers in the first file horizontally, run the program, and the second file will show you the exact series of numbers, vertically. I pasted the code into my message to Mr Koh and posted it with a post script like this..

However, upon realisation, my essays needed to be written out, on Hwa Chong Chinese foolscap paper. I was so annoyed. I printed one essay and had another essay saved on my phone in adobe document. The first thing after rushing into the class was to start copying. Tenn Shaun also opted to be a journalist and he was busy rushing his essays out. He had not even started. I took out the one about the debate that I printed and started copying vigorously. My hand was shaking non-stop. 15 mins to go to flag raising.....12..... then 7.....4.......The class started to leave. I was only at the third paragraph out of five. I felt in danger. As we had a briefing on CA at Cheng Yi Loh in College at 2pm, I was so fuzzled. First lesson was Malay studies. Cikgu Mastura was quite frustrated when she tested us on the Malay words we had just learned a week ago. Most of us could not remember what we learned. She said that this should be a lesson to be enjoyed not detested. She said that she was going to make us stand, even in the principal's office if we did not revise her work. I was so scared. Okay, for Malay that lesson we learned about directions. Belakang, atas and something.... It was quite peaceful. When Cikgu Mastura left the class, I fished out my foolscap and started copying frantically for another 3 lines before it was REALLY time to go for PE. For PE, we had to run for 2.4km. Most of the class were very unwilling to run as the sun was killing. Si Jian and Jun Yang said that they weren't feeling well and stood aside to keep time for us. Sheng Jie, Tenn Shaun and I decided to walk together for the whole distance. The class was lined up in groups and when Mr Guo, our PE teacher said 'go', all of us ambled on the tracks. He said "回来，回来。干什么呢你们？" and we obeyed him and came back, all laughing madly. "This is a walkaton!" everyone shouted. For the second time, some ran while some jogged and we moved uniformly as a class. After a distance for 9 metres, Sheng Jie, Tenn Shaun and I stopped and started chatting. We talked about our drama script and other irrelevant stuff. We asked for the time from Jun Yang after completing our 4th round. He said "17 min 24 sec"... That was so incredible. I ran back to class after we were dismissed to continue copying... Some people (including me) who changed in class, managed to get back in our school uniforms while others were too slow and before they knew it, a teacher came in. 5 secs later, she walked out. She went to the WRONG class... So during reading period, I read for the first half and copied secretively for the second half. There was this parody called "全世界都在笑中国傻” originated from "全世界都在讲中国话". (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XkPkeizBG-U) The original song was sung by SHE and the lyrics meant that Chinese had became an international language in the world, whereas the parody, was mocking the Chinese for being silly to give so much advantages to the Westerners in China herself. The lyrics was nicely transformed and it was very funny even if you just read it. Then suddenly Mr Lundberg, 1A3's previous year Language Arts teacher walked in the class to supervise reading period. 1A3 people cheered and he asked us to remain silent. For the second time he walked in, he spotted Chia Wei changing into his uniform. Much irritated, he questioned "Why are you changing in the class? Why do you think it is okay to change in class?" Chia Wei did not answer, Mr Lundberg asked again. Finally Mr Lundberg said "You do not change in class. You change in the bathrooms, that's where you change. For the sake of the female teachers in Hwa Chong, you do not change in class." Chia Wei was red in the face. Recess bell rang and I legitimately continued copying. I had already completed the first essay and it was time for the second one. As I said, I stored the second one in my phone, so I fished out my phone and started copying.. and still copying.... STILL COPYING... Before I got on to the 3rd paragraph, Ms Loh walked in, ENGLISH!! We were split into groups of 5 and were required to do a research of the themes of TKAM... Okay, after that it was Maths and yes, quite peaceful... After Ms Tong left the class at around 1.43pm, I manically continued my copying... Xiang Jie was in front of me, rewriting his summary as he proclaimed that the last page of his comprehension assignment was detached. So mostly, everyone except the Malaysian scholars were gone before 1.55pm. I decided to minimise my second essay, which title was "Self-Introduction", to 2 pages instead of an estimated 3. No time at all!! I finished both at 1.58 pm. Ran down to 3rd storey, into the staff room and went up to the elevated storey and handed in my scripts... PHEW!!! I knew that I was already late so I went back to the class and checked on Xiang Jie. We made an agreement to go to JC side after he handed in the comprehension to Ms Loh. When we reached college, it was nearly 2.20pm. The whole hour was simply BORING!!! Just very monotonous voices and raging temperature of the speaker as Mrs Ng was always complaining being interrupted by a group of Sec 1s. When I arrived home, it was nearly 5pm (I ate at the college side) and there was still an hour to leave home for my SNYS... Screw it, I can't nap. I feel so tired. At about 10.20pm, I came home from my SNYS and was dead beat. I mugged Geog for an hour and slept.

Geography was rather relaxing. Ms Yap had her lesson in the Computer lab and she let us do research for 1 period. Wikipedia is always the place to go! So again from the very messy and lengthy descriptions for each of the weather instruments, we were supposed to consolidate the important points and write in point form. Ms Yap asked us to leave before I went to the 4th item. The LA lecture was better than previous week as it was much more engaging. We studied the speech of Martin Luther King's and it was quite messed up. That Negro didn't speak very well. I can't believe that he could write an impromptu speech which was shown in the notes after hearing his imprecise pronunciation and unnecessary hesitance. The speech was talking about racial discrimination and the orator wanted to re-emphasise the importance of racial harmony in America and the American dream that could be build if the differences races unite as a one and work towards the same goal. His speech has lots of repetition, I wonder whether it was him stuttering. LOLs. During the break, I went down for recess and queued for the Western stall. I wanted to order Swiss Chicken which was a Thursday special and an all-time favourite. But I changed my mind and ordered beef steak instead. I changed my mind because I had never tried beef steak at that stall before and wanted to know the taste. Upon tasting it, it simply sucked! The meat was somewhat RAW.... not even grilled. I just swallowed the whole big junk piece down and sometimes, it would be stucked in my gullet and I had to wash it down by gargling on my drink. That was the last time I would say the 'beef' in school, NO WAY!!! English was better than the day before as there was class discussion. The discussion was about the summary we were going to do next as a replacement for marks if the first one we did did not score well, most possibly. Ms Loh was damn funny! Her sense of humour was quite ironic, like Ellen DeGeneres. She would murmur a very soft sentence, then immediately repeat with something contradictory loudly. Xiang Jie and I just burst our laughter uncontrollably. We wrote a speech that contained the school rules the freshmen (only girls as it was a girls' school) needed to adhere to. We named the school St. Josephine High School for Sacred Girls, although I thought St. Josephine Sacred Girls' High School would be better. Isn't it just like "Holy Innocents"? Anyway, it was just FUNNY! After LA was science. It was the first day our real science teacher walked in to the class. For the past two lessons, the relief teacher came in and taught us some deep stuff. However, no matter who walked in, what was thought was always deep and complex. Yah, so it was just pure chemistry and more chemistry.... and the BELL at 1.40pm just rattled on... I went straight home at 2.30pm. Reached home, I bathed and switched on my computer and started watching the next episode of "海派甜心". It was cool. After that, I watched the 1 hr 30 minutes interview with the actors on the heated drama "就想赖着你" that have its premiere this Saturday. Cool... Interesting.... Then, the night came. DOOM... I started doing my Confucius at 8pm. Damn it. Must mug already. So I went online and found an essay written by someone about Confucius' political philosophy and whether it was accepted by the minds of people at that time. After that I started on my bookmarks. It was already 10 plus... So for the background, I chose a gradient and i added some decorative thumbnail pictures on it. With the quotes, one of the three different ones look like this... I pasted it on hardcover and cut out an U shape in the middle to make it special. You simply have to slot the U onto the page and that's it. If you still don't get me, either your visual skills is bad or I am poor in explaining myself. Erm... It works like the principle of a hairpin... You press it, it pops and you clip it!!!

Arrived school at about 7.55 pm. I walked into class and saw everyone busy around. I took out my Maths Worksheet and started doing it. It was quite simply, you simply had to change the numbers to the same base. I was at 1 (f) when it was time for flag raising. Oh yes, I forgot to mention a guy Neo Xinyuan (something like that). He sings so beautifully every day at flag raising. You will be surprised..... It is just GROSS!!! People say that he is a little bit haywire at the brain. Crows listening to him will feel that their voices were not that horrible after all, I suppose. The first period was Chinese and we were required to write a situational composition. There were three titles and I decisively choose the first one. I don't know why, but I always like to choose the first one, even it was only just manageable for me. So the situation for the first one was you witness a group of people wasting food when your family was at a buffet restaurant. You were supposed to write an informal letter to your friend to share your views about this matter. We started on 8am, but only a few finished at 8.40, which was the time that we needed to hand in. Miss Teo said she must receive all the compos before 2.30pm, or she would start to minus marks from this assignment. She left and after a few minutes, an unknown teacher walked in. The class cheered as we knew that he was a relief teacher in substitution Mr Chen. Yeepee! This lesson was Thinking and the teacher gave us a worksheet. The worksheet was a mindmap for us to fill in. In the middle was the word "thinking" and the links were the 5w1h. I didn't care about this insane worksheet and continued my last paragraph of my situational compo. 3 minutes later, Hong Jin turned back and showed me his worksheet. It was hilarious. How? "By using your brain". What? "Something you think". When? "When you are thinking". I nearly cried blood out. After about 7 minutes, I finished my compo and began on my Maths. I finished my Maths at 8.25am and I went on to the Maths journal writing assignment. The second question was hard. But luckily, I have the self and world recognised "Maths Professor", Ka-Shing at my left. So I just used his non-understandable answer for mortals as an reference only. Okay, I'll be honest, I copied! But who cares? (Rhetorical question) At recess, I ran down to the canteen and followed Sheng Jie who queued the bread stall. As I don't patronise this stall often, I wanted to try more things. So I ordered a Ham and Cheese sandwich, a peanut butter waffle and a curry puff. Then I got to the drink stall and bought a soybean drink. Walking down to the tables, I thought the sandwich would taste nicer if it was pumping hot as the cheese would melt like thread... Smooth and silky. I came back to class at 10.20am and saw Xiang Jie copying Ka-Shing's worksheet as well. I slacked for 10 minutes and got ready for Science stuff and was ready to leave. Science was fun. I love experiments. Today was about acids and alkalines. We dipped litmus papers into solutions and see the reactions. We also learnt about the electrical conductivity of acidic and alkaline solutions. The bulb was green and Xiang Jie, who was my partner, spam played with it and the deionised water. Next period was Maths and it was quite peaceful as well... Miss Tong had corrected one of her more challenging question and it made most us felt possible to be done at last. I did guess and check and got option (E) as my answer. Then we went through the Maths journal writing assignment and she questioned us which part of someone's theory was incorrect. And that was mostly about it. Then as I said, it was CA mock session afterwards. A teacher called Mrs Sng walked in and asked us to arrange our chairs to the positions drawn on the board. Only register numbers 1 to 16 were involved. Number 17, who was How Pin went to replace Gabriel who was number 3 and had been absent for today and Thursday. Tenn Shaun heaved sighs of relief when he felt he was luckily not to be called upon as he was 18. "Number 18, be the leader of today's discussion." and Tenn Shaun was not that lucky anymore. Just before the session started, Tenn Shaun replied that he only read a few of the articles given and did not really know the topics of today's discussion. 19, who was Xiang Jie, was called upon. Xiang Jie also said he didn't read as well. Before Mrs Sng said anything, I stood up and said "I'm 20 and I also did not read". The class laughed. So at last, Shawn Ang was chosen and the session officially started. It was just plain DEAD, the discussion was DEAD. Nobody seemed to cared as it a mock trial. More "enthusiastic" people from the crowd like Xiang Jie and Junning were very engaged. So, this deadly thing that nearly killed me ended at 1.55 pm. I thought I was screwed as my choir started at 2 pm. I still had to hand in my Chinese essay to Miss Teo. Jun Ming and Jun Yang (I think), asked me to help them pass their compos as well. As I was neutral in my character, I said yes and ran down to the staff room with my heavy back tugged on my shoulders. After handing in, I sped down to SALT centre. When I reached the entrance, I saw my choir friends walking out and they told me that practice was in the music rooms. After singing for like 20 minutes in music room, we got back to SALT centre MPH to rehearse together with the new Sec 1 members. After singing for 20 minutes, a boy walked in and asked in Mandarin whether this was the place for choir. He was diminutive in size, probably just 130 cm. (NOT kidding) and I asked "Are you sure you Sec 1?" Everyone laughed. Mr Yong was quite annoyed and asked me to give up my seat to him. I was fine with that and invited him to sit as I sat on the tiers. He told me that he was a Malaysian scholar and was currently in Ortus. I asked him what was his primary school CCA and he said choir. He added that he had been a student conductor when he was P6. Hearing that, I tried badly to persuade him to join choir as he has enough experience and good qualities as a singer. We sang until 3.20pm and Mr Yong dismissed us early. I went home and slacked. I suddenly had the thought of writing my blog at 10.10pm. That's why I am posting now as I had the whole Saturday morning outdoors and I reached home at 5pm. I don't intend to write this every week. Maybe once a fortnight.
