talentime competition, TOMORROW

man oh man oh man oh man oh man. talentime competitions TOMORROW.

here's a brief intro. a talentime competition is a competition to showcase one's talents in dancing, singing or acting. whichever you prefer. so, me, fion, amanda, ruth and desiree, have come together and formed this singing group to participate in the competition. won't say the group name. anyway, we're singing the national day song, reach out for the skies. you must be thinking like errr...

man, i'm not doing well in my studies. i think. my first test has just ended. i failed my maths test. the worst i have ever done. emaths is simply tough. i like amaths so far. chinese is simply crazy. the teacher just talks so profund. idiot. she talks fast and very chim. and kinda looks like harry potter. haha. oops sorry. english is simply mad. compositions, the minimum words one can write is 300! it's a breeze. really. geography. so much facts to remember. social studies is fun.

arr. why must cross country be so near chinese new year? when am i going to grow taller? when will i like chinese and maths? why am i so busy?

anyway, i want to go to OBS sabah. but it's 900dollars+++. that's a lot. even though it's not my money, i feel the pinch. according to last year seniors, it was like 600+++only. then for OBS local, this year it's 300dollars+++, last year it was 100+++only! what the.

i want to join NDP this year. it'll be a must for me to participate for the fairfield story musical. i'm in drama. i'm in red cross. i'm in chapel band. i'm in council. man oh man oh man.

a day

define blind.

what if one day you wake up to see only blackness.
you try to find light.
no.
that doesn't work.
you panic.

you become afraid.
you start to cry.
you wonder what would happen in the future.

what if this happens to you one day?
will it happen to me?
all i can do,
is PRAY.

orientation 06

orientation 2005, i took 1i. a normal technical class.boy, they were a bunch of bad girls and bad boys.

orientation 2006.
i have taken 1g. and they rock! i just hope they don't turn into those bad boys and bad girls. i hope they won't get influenced by the older people. i really don't want them to. i just want them to remain in their innocent kiddy throughout their entire fairfield life. and duh i know that's impossible.

this year's batch are really shy but already 'polluted'. they have already started to fold their skirts, socks low and messy hair.

my partners for this orientation are Wilson and Mary.

i'm just gonna copy and paste what i wrote for my reflections into here.

Orientation 06

What I expected

I was pretty nervous to meet 1G. I also had high hopes of 1G due to the experience of taking 1I last year. I expected 1G to be enthusiastic, happy all the time, enjoying the time they have with the councilors and appreciating the games we have for them. I wanted to know everyone of them. I wanted them to respect me and I would respect them.

What I experienced

On the first day of orientation, it turned out not well. They weren’t interested in the games. Mary and Wilson were quite angry. Wilson was shouting with all his might and still, 1G was still not listening. I asked a few on their opinions on what game would they like to play and they said catching. It was frustrating for me that they have not realized that they were already secondary one and have not broken off from their childish habits. It was really disappointing to see that 1G weren’t co-operating with us. It really lowered our spirits but we still kept on going. 1G took their own time. They walked slowly. They ate slowly. They still had their childish attitudes. I think I understood what was happening. The few reasons were that it was their first day of school, they came from all different primary schools, they were shy and they relied on their new cliques for support.

The second day, Wilson and I agreed that we would go slowly on them and he would apologize to them for shouting at them. We would also tell them our expectations of them and re-introduce ourselves. On this day, I was quite glad, as some of them have opened themselves up to us.

On the third day, almost the whole class as opened up to us. I even managed to open up some tough ones. Talentime preparations. The class wasn’t co-operating. Wilson and I were very worried. We just sat down and thought. I could see that Wilson was very frustrated. Then, my mind went ‘ding!’ shared my idea with him.

On the fourth day, there was track and field CCA selections. They had to run like 5 rounds altogether. I ran with them to suffer with them and strengthen friendships with them. This was talentime night. I was very nervous for our class’s skit. I was unsure whether would it work. While they were acting, I was panicking out backstage at the curtains. It turned out that our class got FIRST. I was exhilarated.

What I have gained

I learnt that you have to wait for one to open up slowly and to help them; you’ve got to laugh with them, suffer with them, and do funny and embarrassing actions with them.

anyway,
