Hahahaha. I dun even remember where i stopped at my last post. It was too long ago.

14 girls, 10 guys, 24 people. dunno why always got more girls. had ice breakers with facils Wei Wen and Shi Jing. Games were quite fun and rather clean apart from the paint and some water games. Dragon boat at Kallang on Tue. Didnt have arm aches as expected, the technique really matters. Wed was last day of orientation and climaxed on Finale Night with the cohort breaking into houses of Ole, Yatta, Shiok and Viola.

My group is in Yatta house and won the Overall Best House competition. Cheered until throat hoarse. Fantastic atmosphere. Loved the Viola cheer though. After the cheering and everything, was mass dance. hahaha i guess i have the most number of changed partners. in IG 03, my partners were Tara, Michelle and Janice. then in 1T26, my partners were some one from another class (i dun even know the name) and Shan Shan. She seem to know a lot of SJI people. lol even Benedict Chiong and Roth Trisno. interesting. Went out with only a small group after that to Prata House at Thomson. Quite sad, so many people pang seh.

Thurs was when all the work starts. I just realised i m only taking 6 subjects. WOW. was just thinking about homework and realised only have homework for 3 of the 6 for this weekend. should be manageable la.

Biology teacher is Mr Goh, tall and skinny guy who goes quite fast in lectures, not used to him after Lim Meng Chye's way of teaching.

Chemistry teacher is Ms Violet Teo, quite lian kind but teaching is ok. oh ya and she s the diao diao diao teacher.

Maths teacher is Mrs Felicia Koh. ok la, not that bad. Still better than Foo Lee Hua! at least no more ACKING for lessons.

Econs teacher is Mr Alex Kwee. only had one tutorial with him but find him not bad. Way better than the Indian teacher in lectures. Whole day scolding people. Will look forward to his lessons

Chinese and Home Tutor is Mdm Tan. More of a comedian. Typical Chinese teacher, cant speak English well but make attempts to and as a result, makes a joke out of it.

GP and Asst Home Tutor is Mr Clement Woo, he just graduated and was from RJ. For me, too young to be a teacher, but at least he can communicate with us.

that s all for academics. PE teacher is the CJ soccer team coach, Mr Adrian Ho. Like his way of conducting activities. Too bad didnt make it to the soccer team. Good luck jem! It s tough.

Talk so much also dunno i will stay at CJ for JAE. There s nothing that bonds me there so at least i can say i wont hesistate to leave if i have good grades. Havent heard from MOE when s the release date until now. So i suppose to Cambridge's information of release of results on Mon isnt very accurate. The second rumoured date is 25th which is Fri seem more possible. Since MOE receive the results on Mon, they need to do all the moderation and ranking thingy so 25th is more likely the official date.

Went to chinatown at night with mother to check out the atmosphere there. it isnt full blast yet but the feeling is there. There was a Lion Dance Competition yesterday and caught just 2 of the 5 teams performing. All i can say is i cant wait for Chinese New Year! Gong xi gong xi!
