Okay, so here're some pictures I took with my phone today, during the Parliament trip, which sort of turned out to be boring, for me. :D We should've gone to the Istana instead. HOHO. Oh, HELLO, our beloved Chairlady, Liyana Bte Horsahamay(aka Mau)! :D
There's more, but most of them includes the five of us camwhoring, and I'm sure you guys won't want to see that, so yeah. :D
Oh, and yes, there's more. Here's a video clip of Angelin, Nam and Fah on way to the Parliament house, being waaaay crazy. Only it's not only crazy, it's not only weird, it's not only eccentric, it's out of this world. O.O
Oh, but sorry for the bad quality, I guess my phone's not the best camera in the world, hurhur!
Enjoy!
BAH HUMBUG, I can't believe Mrs Kwok is baaaacccckkk. I swear to God, she's going to make me fail like nothing else.
The devil has never been so scary. ):
I LOVE ME, Jiali. :D
One last note, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO TENGYIN, & HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MARILOU! :D
definitely worth checking out when it opens this week (or next) - shia's awesome (nice to see hollywood giving the youngies a chance) and man, disturbia's creepykins.
"i'm still searching for the key, i sit down and think, it's kind of puzzling actually, i feel lonely and i write, i ponder on how it came to be, i look back on how it all started, i was just a boy looking for me, i didn't look yet it came by, Then you came along in my plea, i struggled and yet sank in your eyes, it was not on purpose but accidentally, and yet i want it from you, but you can't give it to me, you are my light of hope in times where i couldn't find me, i love you but you can't love me, isn't it just funny?"
"i'm sure its not there, not even a tiny bit, Why?i ask myself.i look in the mirror, see my eyes stare back at me, what's wrong with me?what have i done wrong? to not deserve it from you? questions and questions, pop in and out of my head.it drives me crazy. i know i can't give up,i won't,why must you be unfair? why must i not be given a chance? i'm in love but i'm lonely"
okay,not being mushy or trying to signall anything but i need you guys to tell me which one you guys prefer more okay? thanks. hehh. (actually coz i nothing better to do)
hmm.. maybe since most of you girls have nothing much to do,why not post things about how to read a girl's mind or sumthing. stupid thing to ask for,yes,but useful. darn useful for us guys right now. hehh. =)
Hopefully you guys would cut all the crap about finding fault with one another. I mean, if you're gonna keep blaming each other about the different shitty opinions you have; STOP IT- find somewhere else to throw your anger at.
This blog is created to DISCUSS about the opinions, not comment on one's selfless-ness. Really, you guys need to loosen up. You guys keep remembering the bad stuff in our class, what about the good stuff? We really had fun when we are having P.E, any fun events for that matter. You guys say it as if being in this class is a mistake, so deal with it. Anyhow, its an honest mistake- nobody knew their fate when they chose to be in this class.
STOP blaming each other. If you're one of those who think you didnt contribute to any wrongdoing to the class then you're wrong. Everybody did something wrong for not encouraging one another to do their part to make us a better class. If everybody have encouraged each other to stop playing a fool in class, wont you think the class would be much in control?
So guys, hopefully this post would mean something. You guys need to clear the air and help one another. Have fun while we can, its not like we're gonna stay young forever. We're friends and we'll stay friends as long as we can so lets make it worth while aye.
don know why i am here but just feel like writing in here well was sick on friday thought no one noticed never mind still not well yet even thought its saturday already ... well hope every thing turns out fine and the class goes back to become better then ever thats all i guess nothing much to say ... btw ms priya can i fire myself thanks i wanna sleep le... random posting...
Woh, I haven't been here for awhile and I already see alotta things happening. Well, I wont be giving out comments because people have their own say(eventhough sometimes they are just being self-centered)so, I'll just proceed and do my part to clear this unhappiness from our class.
Well, I'm reading this book titled "GOD's Blogs" by Lanny Donoho. Basically its about what GOD would write in his blog, if he had one. One part of the book he mentioned about nondisclaimers, about the different ideas people have on God and the problems that were caused when people disagrees with these ideas that come from different people. So you might think "What the heck Liyana's tryna say here?" Well, i'm trying to say that you guys have your opinions and different ideas about the class, but however things are gonna be, it wont make any difference; we'll still be 3C. So, let's make the best out of 3C while we're still young. Put away the grudges, the crap that you people are thinking and just get along with the class. If you hate 3C, so deal with it. You're 15, you're too young to hate something so magnificient in life. You guys are gonna be 15 just once, dont waste it on hatred, better yet, waste it on your monkey friends in class, like HW and others whom you think represent a monkey. Study is important, but hey, dont waste your 15th year studying 24/7 -365days. Well maybe study 3h/7daysperweek/100daysayear? Your pick. (:
-Love, your Chairlady.
* so here's some snaps i took from the book which I find very uplifting. :D

Well ok i am back ben here this is (maybe) a joke as the tittle states our class needs cold water seriously man(haha) up to u guys to take me seriously or not but we should all pour cold water over ourselves k
ok so pour cold water over ourselves k hope u guys get what i mean ok thanks cannot stay too long bye
Hey guys chill it man.. Dun take the comments so personally just treat it as some opinions from ur fellow classmates eh.
I mean really its not really worth it we are trying to let ppl voice out their feelings and if it is taken so personally it might lead to some misunderstanding so yeah chill it guys.
thanks for the advice there. i'll take those words in mind.
i wanna have a word about about today. the way you tell the whole class about my post. you make it sound as though i hate those few ppl.YES, i do dislike[hate is too harsh,i supposed] them. cos they didnt respect me and my friends.[so i have all the rights not to respect them] AND you make it sound as though i hate them bcos of jealousy. jealousy of not having the power to take over the class. NO.NO. NO. i dont want power.i dont want to rule the class. i dont want to take charge of anything. i rather stay quiet and do my own business. i dont care. im just saying out my opinions. nothing more.
About this blog thingy. Yes, its not wrong to give comments.[bad comments especially] I dont mind. Your words maybe hurtful to me just now but thats okay. Give comments all you want.
I have another thing to say. But im thinking twice. Its how me and Farah thinks about you Ms Priya.
It is starting to get rather worrying to see people coming in here and writing about how much they dislike the class and the so called "leaders"
FACT Our class does not have leaders.
Here i go with the school motto : Everyone should be empowered to step up and be heard. I'm sorry i don't mean to offend anyone here. There is a reason why our class is so divided - there is a severe lack in this empowerment. Sometimes it is misused too.
Let me explain why.
LMP, it is true. You cannot choose who is going to come into the class and teach you. You adapt. It is not easy being a teacher or a student. God knows, we are all dealing with different things - so let us deal with things the best way we know how. With grace and a little spunk. Getting over excited and wanting to complain about teachers will not bring anything. Get smart, get self-involved and be in the classroom for your own growth. For your own gain of knowledge because although i always say that life's most important lessons are outside school, school still plays a part in your overall development.
If you are content on keeping quiet and letting others take charge, there will be no development. If you think you can get by sleeping and just trying to get through your day in school, next year will be the hardest year yet. If you think that this is all to your life, this school, this classroom, your parents, siblings, girl or boyfriends, this maddening sound in your ear, you are sorely mistaken my loves. There will come a time when the screaming inside and feelings of frustration will amount to zilch. There's so much more coming.
Incidentally this reminds me of this dialogue in Heroes. (molly is supposed to be a little girl who can track people and matt's the police officer)
MATT: Okay. So ... how do we do this?
MOLLY: I just ... I think about him in my mind, then I point to him on the map there.
(She looks behind Matt. Mr. Bennet turns to get the map.)
MOLLY: I need a push-pin.
MATT: So you can find anyone in the world? You just need to think about them?
(They put the Book of WORLD Maps on Molly’s lap.)
MOLLY: Almost anyone.
MATT: Almost?
MOLLY: There's only one that I can't.
MATT: Who's that?
(Molly doesn’t answer him.)
MATT: Is it someone bad, Molly, like the boogeyman?
MOLLY: No. He's a lot worse.
MATT: And why don't you want to find him?
MOLLY: 'Cause when I think about him ... (whispers) He can see me
Ger, freaking scary.
I reckon what i am trying to say is this.
Be empowered. You guys naturally are it seems, but focus on the right thing yah..
You'll do just fine.
and if he can see you, trust me, you'll be glaring right back at him ;)
to be honest,i have to agree to what shiang ning said in her FIRST post. a portion i mean. nt all. this is what was said(i think) "abt you guys who PON class,if u dun wanna study just dun come to school uh,dun cause others to take the blame for you." however, it is human nature to not have the same particular interest in sumthing. yes, the students who did it were wrong,but are they to be blamed totally for the downfall of the army?(class i mean) yes,not all of us did it and yet received harsh words. But did we try to stop those who did it? you may be thinking,even if i did,it would have been in vain,they won't listen. yes,maybe it WOULD have been in vain but did we try? no,we didnt we didnt even stop them. That is why we are on the receiving end of these scoldings. because we didnt try to stop them. because we dun want these things to happen again. not because we want to contribute a siesta to the innocent but as a precautionary measure so as to not let it happen again. those who were in the wrong were indeed,well,wrong. yes. but we can still trust them cant we? they are part of our clan,part of our legacy. people change okay? instead of putting to blame,we should motivate them to change,to give them a want and a need to study.i am sure they wont do it again,considering the huge crisis that happened. thus, i'd like to say to those who have,or are going to PON classes, please think twice before you do it,or before you do anything that may bring us down.think,think and think again. our fortress has been heavily damaged,let us not watch it crumble.
i'd like to have a say in another point that has been brought up. It's about not liking our class. Firstly, i've noticed that there are many personal conflicts between people in our class. remember guys,we are,to this day,and to the last day of next year,classmates. let us not cause bad blood in the class. everything can be settled with words of civilised people. Are we going to keep on hating each other because of small matters? yes, some of you may not like this class now and want your old classes back. did you actually think,at the end of last year,that your class will stay together till the end of secondary school? i know,its hard because all of us are coming from four different places and going into a new territory. And because you guys are from different places,different conflicts that have been caused in the past have been brought into this new place. Let us not dwell in the past my friends. To be honest, i too would like to turn back the time and undo some mistakes which i have made in the past. for example,i have destroyed two of my good friend's relationships. i'd like to turn back the time and regain that friend's trust. i'd like to turn back to the time where i'm having fun in class with the malay guys,rebelling against the teachers, defying their every commands. yes,it was fun,it was united,you may say. but it never lasts long. why do you think the school divides our classes in our third years? because the third year is the year all of us learn the hardship in adapting to changes. it is the year all of us start discovering who we are,what we can be,what talents we have,what we are made for and what we are going to be for the rest of our lives. However,we have a chance my friends.yes, a chance. remember the adventure camp? remember how united we were? and during p.e? why is it we are only protected externally but vulnerable internally? we are like spiderman when he just discovered himself. he was strong at body and mind,but weak at heart. but soon after,he learned to be strong. he learned to do what's right. he learned to accept what he was made for. let us learn to be strong internally my friends. at first i too did not like this class. but soon realised,that in my entire school life,this is the only class which i'm unafraid to show my true colours. where i have no restrictions to speak my mind,which i am most comfortable and at ease to discover myself. like i said, do not dwell in the past.yes,the past is where you learn to change the present and therefore choose your future.but staying too long in a place you can't change doesn't push you forward but merely holds you back.remember this,my friends.
-afiq p.s. sorry i said too much,but this is wat has to be said. sorry. =)
Somehow I felt I never like this class once. Why? Class spirit aint that strong. And ya I gotta admit Im one of those who is not contributing anything to the class. Why again? I just can't be bothered seriously. I need to have a say about the last MINOR problems faced by this class. Not liking the teacher, ponteng classes, behaving like a 10 yr old kid like no one's business, etc. Not liking the teachers? SO? Heck care about it. Adapt with it and just try to concentrate. Its for your own good. You cant choose what you want just like that. Who started it? the so called leaders who i dont really look upon at. Who to be blame? THEM. I actually surveyed some of our classmates. The ones who is attentive in class, the quietest easy said. Surprisingly, they have the exact mindset like mine. Frankly, they dont really care at all about those problems. "they started it, so let them fix it back". those are the words from the quietest ppl and mine too. surprising? hah. Oh ya, one thing i just cant accept the fact is that. the so called leaders ask us to respect teachers. i believed they have to emphasize on respecting their own classmate too! f*** them. me and my group were standing up there. trying to get the class attention for our presentation. im not surprised that i couldnt get the attention from the 'naughty' ones. i expecting attention from the quitest ppl and the so called leaders. hah. guess what. that so called leaders didnt even gave their attention to us,their classmate, when we were presenting. oh fcuk. leaders are supposed to be good role model. but hell no, they just prove themselve wrong. sorry teacher, this are just my OWN THOUGHTS about them. i need to let this anger out. i will never ever gonna respect them,really. that attitude just turns me off. i dont mind making enemies in this class. like i said,i simply just cant be bothered. all i know, i sit on my place, study or sleep or whatever. thats it. i know i have a fcuked up attitude. but thats just me. thnks for reading my thoughts and opinion. dislike or like me. dont know dont care. (: oh yeah.LEON, all the best for being a vice-chairperson. dont take this sentence seriously "(never taken seriously,vice-chairman)" cause i know you ARE taking this seriously. so yeah. jia-yo!
Okay hows about we talk about something else people?
Debate topics or just our days and what is happening in our lives?
I'm sure something interesting is always around the corner, maybe post a predicament and see what people have to say? If you are posting a predicament, you can go anon. Three Cians might just have the answers you are looking for :)
Cheers people and don't forget them walkathon cards.
Eh sia la,no one take mi seriously at all sia =( ok la i know i just became the vice chair but den i can feel that its not easy being the vice chair or chair-person.
I mean just imagine la. You standing in front of 38 faces looking at you then you trying to convince them to work together as a class but they just dun seem to wan to listen to you. (Thats wad happen to mi,altho not a exact 38 ppl)
Anyway its just that the person standing out dere is trying to speak to you guys telling you guys to co operate with one another and they stand up for the class when the teachers finds fault wif us,but den in the end they get the blame.
I mean how would you feel if you were standing up for a friend and instead of him/her thanking you,you get scolded. Its not an easy task trying to pull the class together. So please please i hope you guys can really be more understanding towards those who are speaking up for you. Sometimes they may not really know how to express themselves and may hav said something harsh but im sure they dun mean it.. So yeah we should really hav the class spirit and work together ya?
Vice-Chairman, Leon
P.S: Eh take my words seriously hor and please dun flame mi xD sry i repost cus i place the comment to somewhr else.. Hahaha im nt good at blogging.
woo chih peng, fah, pls listen n think. U GUYS NOE WATS E MEANING OF OPINION? pls GET UR FACTS RITE. N UNDERSTAND TIS SITUATION B4 U ASK ME TOO ,MR CP. TIS BLOG HERE IS FOR CLASS TO POST THEIR HONEST OPINION. IM JUZ POSTING MY OPINION HERE OK? IF U CANT ACCEPT IT, THEN DUN READ IT. DONT EVEN BOTHER TO ASK PPL TO POST THEIR OWN OPINION HERE. COS Y?

hey hey hey, here to blog, hmm, well, i think that WE(and i'm emphasizing that) can be a united class... Seriously, there are some ppl i dunt lyk in this class... BUT, to avoid any collisions... i wont say them, cuz liyana's rite... 2 years... wad can we do?
So.. the ppl hu are still being naive, pls face the fact~!! u still have to be in this class for the remaining 2yrs... And come on... THE-MESSAGE-HAS-BEEN-VERY-CLEAR-THAT-WE-HAVE-TO-ADAPT-TO-THE-TEACHERS...
And i have to say, i really agree with wad ben says... I know that some of u... even myself sometimes find ben slightly irritating but come on... whether u hate him anot... his post dunt have his face.. so can we do wad it says?
And shiang ning, i dunt wish to say anything, but i have no choice... i know its not wrong to speak ur mind out.. and well liyana's rite again(._.) it really hurts when u say u hate 3c... Think abt it, wad would miss priya think if she read it? u may like her.. but u cant juz hate the class... If u say that it has affected ur studies, fine... i cant say anything... but dont u think u are selfish? Caring abt urself only? Lyk wad mr goh said, "IF THIS CARRIES ON, MORE THAN HALF OF U WONT MAKE IT TO SEC 4" Its not our fault we cant adapt to any of the teachers, diff ppl = diff learning style, wad if i ask mr png teach u? i'm not boasting but i will understand, and i dunt think u will.. If other ppl pon class, u could have stopped them? its all for one and one for all, i admit i was at fault for not stoppnig them too, and i pon chinese...
I know... that since i am now not the class vc anymore, u all wont listen to me de... On my part, i seriously think that i have not done enuff, and i did alot wrong things, to miss priya, i really apologise for wad the class said...
The reason why I refuse to take existentialism as just another French fashion or historical curiosity is that I think it has something very important to offer us... I'm afraid were losing the real virtues of living life passionately in the sense of taking responsibility for who you are the ability to make something of yourself and feel good about life. Existentialism is often discussed as if it were a philosophy of despair, but I think the truth is just the opposite. Sartre, once interviewed, said he never felt once minute of despair in his life. One thing that comes out from reading these guys is not a sense of anguish about life so much as a real kind of exuberance, of feeling on top of it, its like your life is yours to create. Ive read the post modernists with some interest, even admiration, but when I read them I always have this awful nagging feeling that something absolutely essential is getting left out. The more you talk about a person as a social construction or as a confluence of forces or as being fragmented of marginalised, what you do is you open up a whole new world of excuses. And when sartre talks about responsibilty, he's not talking about something abstract. He's not talking about the kind of self or souls that theologians would talk about. He's talking about you and me talking, making descisions, doing things, and taking the consequences. It might be true that there are six billion people in this world, and counting, but nevertheless -what you do makes a difference. It makes a difference, first of all, in material terms, to other people, and it sets an example. In short, I think the message here is that we shouuld never write ourselves off or see eachother as a victim of various forces. It's always our descision who we are.
hey guys, despite all the emotions building and swirling around this blog, i am so proud of everybody because each and everyone of you has his or her heart in the right place.
Ok so our class has a tendency to be a little messy at times, bits of paper there, sometimes food wrappers, the occasional drink can, meh, but now that we know this, we can do something about it. bin it (i am strongly against brian's method of disposal although it might be a little cathartic - when i was a kid, i had a habit of throwing apples out of windows when i was bored and for some reason, i was always staying on high floors - but to date, nobody has died from a flying apple but Mr Sham, the last thing we need now is killer litter lol)
Next - Pon-ing class. again, now that we know this, all we need to do is stick up for each other and motivate each other (i know i used the word motivate eek) to stay in class and get through the lesson...
This thing about hating 3C, it is normal. Normal because like i said before, sec three is a transitional period for you. Some people adapt fast, some people take longer to adapt, some people may never adapt and look back on the class ten or twenty years later and think "damn, i loved that bunch of people. i wonder where they are now." Of course, they just as well may not have that thought either. That said, 15 is a transitional period and things can and will have a tendency to stir you up a bit here and there but again, it is normal. You need to find a coping system (and if any of you are thinking of the occasional ciggy and cocaine, please come and see me, so i can knock you on your head lol). I'm talking about your family, friends and your interests. There is a big big big world out there and like i always say, it is out there for you. There is no limit to what you can do my luvs - so do something, make some noise, get stirred up, go salsa dancing with your confusion....
Resistance is not futile, we're gonna win this thing, humankind is too good, we're not a bunch of under-achievers! We're gonna stand up, and we're gonna be human beings. We're going to get fired up about the real things, the things that matter! Creativity, and the dynamic human spirit that refuses to submit.
All that said, i don't hate 3C. I'm on the opposite extreme lol.
A few messages to some of the messages that i have read on the current page :
To my dear chair lady, i think you are awesome and you are doing a fantastic job. I say this because i believe this.
Baby Dino, hello!!!
Xiang Rong, lovely post, very diplomatic.
Brian, I hope you find the dude you are looking for lol.
I'm sorry if I let you/the class down in any way while you were gone. Maybe I didnt like working with Mrs Krishna at first. She's asking me do alot of stuff then I normally do for you(ms priya). So I was a bit irritated. But soon it got into my mind that she was new, so what the heck, I had to help. Sorry if the class gave you a shitty attitude when you came back, maybe they took advantage of your absence. Well, maybe I'm not the one who should be apologising here, but I feel guilty for not being a responsible chairlady while you were away.
(And for those who SHOULD be apologising, well, you know what to do.)
A MILLION APOLOGIES FOR MS PRIYA. --With Love, 3C Chairlady.
Dearest Shiang ning; Okay, maybe you are right. Maybe the class is choosy with the teachers that teach us. And maybe we couldn't adapt well to them. It really hurt when I got to know you HATED the class that much. If our class sucked that much to you, why cant YOU adapt to the class? Since you can adapt so well to the teachers, Why cant you adapt as well to your OWN classmates? Face it, you're gonna face your classmates,your friends, for the next 2 years; If you dont adapt to the class now, people in the class will never want to be friends with you knowing that you despise the class. All I need is your support in the class and class matters, even so, you refuse to show support. Honestly, go to another class, if you're gonna turn your back to the 3c. And about the vulgarities, I apologise if I said any. But you have to understand that leaders are standing up for the class. I'm sorry but you are not in our shoes, you dont know that what we are doing is to stand up for the class, these words are surely to come out. We are standing up for the class, and incase you havent notice, you ARE in this class. And we're trying our best to pull the reputation of the-class-that-you-hate-so-much up. The way I see it, you are just being self-centered,not caring how the others feel. Yes, maybe you are annoyed with always being blamed for what you didnt do. I, too, am annoyed and further more I am the class Chairman, how do you think I feel when teachers keep asking me about those students who PoN? Of course you dont care, because you're not the one taking care of 39 pupils and YOU are one of them. I HAVE to be a bit harsh on you because your words really hurt. So here it is. I just hope, things would get better in class.
Look ppl. I appreciate the feedbacks u have given me.pls get the facts rite. I'm not showing attitudes or wat, but im juz telling u guys how i feel deep in my heart. Im sure u all wanna noe wat all the 3cians are thinking dun u? Nam wrote on e board saying that she wanna noe our thinkings.. Hence i wrote everything how i seriously feel. I think Angelin's right. I havent adapt to 3c. but i will do my best to adapt ok? I wont get angry of wat e feedbacks u given. I juz wan to make it clear thats all. I have no intention to cross over u guys. Fah, u said I get out of 3c, juz bcos e thinking i have? Thn, wat abt u? pon class. made ms gan feel bad abt our class. lost trust in ms priya. as a ldr of our class, u shouldnt have done it. Its a gd thing to reflect but seriously, mayb u should apologise to her n persuade her to trust ms priya again? i do not wish to quarrel with u n make our relationship get worse. I feel that its e best if we could tok over. U dont have to say such heavy words saying i get out. its juz my opinion onli. seriously. if i've offended any1 of u here, i apologise okie? i really dont wish to fight or wat.. Juz pls dont use e vulgar word in front of e class while u all r toking ok? yup thats all i have to say. Shiang ning.
erh class, i think we must change our mindset towards the teachers in jvs.. why must we request to change subjects teachers? wat/where did the teachers did wrong anything?
its not the teachers fault lor haha.. its better for us to change and adapt to the style of teaching different teachers have.. rather than skipping supp classes then we are still the one at the losing end right>?
and i agree with wat mdm tan said... she told us tat our standard i way behind the good schools in terms of results and studies and i agree...
if u don agree, u can go visit the good schools in singapore... they are much more deciplined than us
pls behave larh.. if u all wanna slack during sec 3 sec 4 then start work hard for 'O'level sure u cant get good grades one.. foundation is more important!!
to ms priya: thanks for forgiving 3C in spite of all the troubles we created... haha..
haha.. tats all i wanna say larh can guess who i am???
xiangrong larh.. so easy all cant guess correct .. haha..okay cya
Ok ok people listen up(actually up to u to take me seriously or not)
go for me i feel that the class well ... okok i will just go straight to the point to ans every ones comments
First of all the class should be more united ok i know u guys will start saying that come on we all different people how to be united well i think that for us to be united first we must accept who we are(maybe off point) after doing that accept the class as a whole (right) once the class has accepted itself as a class then we need our leader=mrs priya she will then do her job(i mean in a sense) to lead our class then make the class become one(?)
Secondly all the stuff that has happened in school well every one knows a teacher/ teachers differently compared one another means we all know the teachers differently ya so what(that must be what u guys will say to me) well i think that since we all know the teachers differently why don we just (when they are in class) see them as what they want to show us don go all personal and stuff ya then after that both sides should well how to say(this is from chih peng) both sides teacher and students should adapt to each other give a little take a little ya(shrugs shoulders) then for every teacher why don we try and start again from mon (???)
Thirdly The class environment maybe itis a bit dirty but come on lets not become like the teachers and cirtisize ourselve (???) i stuggest that we all throw all our rubbish in to bin (come on its just next to the door btw is our class that big ?) then besides of having a duty roster when the people do the cleaning when we see stuff on the floor well pick it up and throw it away(ya?) i guess thats what i think if ur really want the class clean (then why not make it a joint effort by every one)
Not done yet sorry (first time i post so long) Fourthly I think that those people who r well out spoken i think that they are doing a good job (i mean at least they so dare to talk right in front of every one and also speak to the teachers for us they also support mrs priya and help her) and whatever they do or say is for the class/for the good of the class(ya) btw to those well not so out spoken its time for u guys to well speak ur mind about our class issues(ya) so speak out people
I don know what else to well when i think of something i will post Last of all to a united 3C like how we were during the sec three camp ONE FOR ALL ALL FOR ONE TOGETHER AS ONE CLASS 3C i think this can be our class culture as the most united class
wait wait wait not done yet mrs priya if u are reading this pls remember what u need to do on mon thanks
last of all
TO A FRESH NEW START ON MON
AND TO THE GREATER GOOD OF 3C
ONE FOR ALL ALL FOR ONE
3C ALL THE WAY
ONE UNITED CLASS
ONE CLASS ONE SPIRIT ONE UNITED PEOPLE ONE SOUND ONE GOAL
Okay, so I posted a comment about Shiang Ning's post already, but I guess I have more to say. Haha.
Anyway, somebody enlighten me about this: how does having a dirty classroom affect our studies, really? In my opinion, it's not affecting me. But then again, I don't have a sensitive nose, so I don't really know.
But yeaaaaaaahhhh, the class is really filthy.
Also, despite the abnormal things that happen in the class, the noise, the skipping, and all that, I still have to say I love 3C. So it gets a little noisy sometimes and you really can't think straight and miss out on all the important information, but if you think about it, these are the people you're going to spend about two years with, so shouldn't you try to accept them the way they are? Cooperation is right, but really, you have to try to accept people before you can start cooperating with them, that's all I'm saying.
Adaptation is also important, because I mean, sure, it was hard to adapt from sec two to three, from a class you know so well to one that you hardly know, but it's been seven months. Moreover, majority of Three.C now is made up of 2D'06 pupils, so I guess there shouldn't be much difference for you?
Not that speaking your mind is a bad thing, of course, but I guess I just have to disagree with your thoughts and opinions. No offence, okay? :D
On another note, should I create a blogskin for the class blog?
Lol im sorry theres so much litter around, i agree with u, its ridiculously funny... But! im proud to say ive never littered in class after the holidays, where does my rubbish go? not the bin, but out the window~ whee~ 3A gets de blame lmfao. I didn go school the past few days so i missed all de action n politics... damn!
The Truly Great, Magnificient and Benevolent Brian
This is my tots throughout my life tis yr. Many things happened tis yr. I wont name it. Its unpleasant. I shall onli tok abt class stuffs, n myself. This may hurt abit. Here goes. I HATE 3C! Honestly. I nv like tis class. Onli when tt time in camp. ONLI AT THAT TIME. why? cos. tis class is damn noisy. i hate it. esp when lesson time. I must say, i got badly influenced seriously. i begin to slack in class. i got worse results for my MYE. but its also bcos of SYF n SpeechDay worn me out. E onli thing i like abt is onli ms priya. she understands us. Y cant e class do e same? Y must SHE tok back to miss gan n make her angry?! ( i dun like e word "pissed") Most of us were ok for e teachers that teach us. Is those "leaders" of the class wans to change teachers. Eg Mdm Koh. i find her ok wat. y must tok to 3A n complain abt her? Y cant adapt to changes? Y must cre8 so much troubles?! another is Mdm Zainah. ITS OKAY WAT. Y MUST COMPLAIN!? I DIDNT SIGN ANYWAYS. But for Mdm Tan case, i think she changed alot. Now i begin to like her even more. I wan back 2D' 06. 2D'06 rocks. I hate tis class. I hate e life im gg through now. See ppl throw papers on e floors, tissue paper (most given by me). I FEEL DAMN GUILTY FOR TIS. PLEASE. KEEP E CLASS CLEAN CAN?! at e beginning of e yr i decided to do sth for e class: which is to help clean up. BUT, not even a day passed, classrm floors are dirty again. wat for i sweep? waste my time, my energy. After reading tis u may dislike me or wat. But, i wanna say out wat i seriously feel abt. Thats y ms priya cre8ed tis blog. I wan to b a simple gal, not complicated mindsets. Thats y i say out all my feelings. if u wanna noe my true self, tis is it. u can see it how i behave in the class. i dun like to act infront of ppl. it sucks. i wanna say tis to e "leaders", please STOP using that word "fcuk". U guys are polluting my mind, myself. even i dun say tis word out, i say them accidentally. I changed since sec 2 , no more vulgar. pls dont make me say those things again. Wat i really wan for tis class is to cooperate with one another. PLEASE STOP THOSE BO LIAO STUFFS WAT PON CLASSES. We are express class not NORMAL TECH. IF U WANNA PON, GO OTHER CLASSES. I DUN WISH TO GET SCOLDED FOR NTH. I MEAN, who wans? Miss Priya. Thank u for everything. Im sorry if i say things that hurts u. But i dun like to keep my feelings. It will make me sick. Sorry if i've changed e impression of u ppl of me. But, thats me. SOrry. Btw ppl, if u dunno how to throw tissue papers into e dustbin, pls bring ur own. I wont gib anymore. U nv bring, thats ur prob.
Ok i haven't gone all scarily psycho on everybody but this is the way i feel about 3C, i carry your heart, i carry it in my heart - i will never give up on you lot!
i carry your heart with me (i carry it in my heart) i am never without it (anywhere i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling i fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide) and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
I saw this lady perform at the mosaic festival at the esplanade this year and she's british. I absolutely love her album Fires and this is probably one of her more radio friendly tunes. I've been thinking about everything that has been happening in our class and i don't know why but this tune just POPPED into my head...
Oh, this road is long, this road is wide, It takes more than luck to last the ride, It takes strength and it takes courage to survive, And did someone ever say to you, "There's nothing bound in thought you cannot do?" Well, I've seen some things but not all of them came true.
So I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, Don't want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow, And I don't want to be afraid, don't want to look away, I'm learning to breathe, No I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, I just need a hope and a light to follow, Like sailors look to stars to find their way home, I'm learning to breathe on my own.
And I know a man who lost his wife, This is the way he chooses to describe his life, He says, "If I think too much, I find there's just a hole," But before she went, she left a son, He says, "Dad, you're not the only one, Maybe love is just a requiem for the soul..."
So I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, Don't want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow, And I don't want to be afraid, don't want to look away, I'm learning to breathe, No I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, I just need a hope and a light to follow, Like sailors look to stars to find their way home, I'm learning to breathe on my own.
Oh, do you still feel small? Just a speck of life on an ocean wave, Does it pull us all? Does it pull us all?
So I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, Don't want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow, And I don't want to be afraid, don't want to look away, I'm learning to breathe, No I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, I just need a hope and a light to follow, Like sailors look to stars to find their way home, I'm learning to breathe on my own.
I honestly don't know why i am starting this blog but i'm hopeful about where it is heading. Anyway, i didn't mean to start my day by yelling at everybody in the morning, was a little stressed up over the whole thing.
A mini confession (ok so maybe not so mini)
I definitely did my own bit of skipping lessons and playing truant but i was young and silly. I was a happy little muffin always running off to spend my time loitering around far east plaza. yer. sssssh please. I can't step into Lips Enterprise now without the uncle screaming "EY YOU POLKA DOTS!"
Yeah it was fun and i thought i was escaping for a bit, but i was really coming back to the same thing. Time keeps ticking, the world moves on and you realize that you have spent too much time running and a couple of things happen
a) everything and everybody moves on b) in doing so, everyone finds a way of dealing or accepting with the monstrosity that is life c) you're the only person left behind and trust me my little munchkins, it is not the best feeling in the world..
My advice for you right now is this,
Life is presenting you with a truck load of trouble. It will not get easier. Parents, schools, teachers etc, it will not stop and it will not stop once you get out of school either. Once you understand this, you learn to adapt (nobody says that you have to understand) but adapting works just as well because you start to realize that for once, you are focusing on you.
Does that make sense?
God i hope so because i have this tendency to yak and yak...
Bottom line....skipping lessons = nowhere...stay in class, deal with it positively and keep working at it...it still may cause you a little bit of suffering but hey, like i said, you are doing it for yourself.
as far as i'm concerned, there's no one else more worthwhile...
Like our old friend Emerson once said, life is a succession of lessons, which must be lived to be understood.
Life is change. Growth is optional. Choose wisely.
Hello, this is Secondary 3C of Jurongville Secondary school, and without doubt,
3C contains some of the most lovely people in the school, possibly the world.
One of them is Miss Priya, our beloved class mentor who is ever so lenient and understanding.
And as far as we know, is also in love with Robbie Williams.
3C holds both Pure Literature and Pure Biology students,
all whom are just as intelligent as the next person,
although few teachers are able to realise that.
We're a noisy class of 39,
who always fails to keep the class clean, and is only united sometimes.
We're led by our Chairlady, Liyana,
and the (never taken seriously)Vice-chairman, Leon.
3C is one class with a lot of leadership potential,
with its numerous Student Councillors, PSLs, Sports Leaders, and CCAs Leaders.
Oh, and if you think this is some hotel advertisement, you're waaaay off the track.
Okay, so here're some pictures I took with my phone today, during the Parliament trip, which sort of turned out to be boring, for me. :D We should've gone to the Istana instead. HOHO. Oh, HELLO, our beloved Chairlady, Liyana Bte Horsahamay(aka Mau)! :D
There's more, but most of them includes the five of us camwhoring, and I'm sure you guys won't want to see that, so yeah. :D
Oh, and yes, there's more. Here's a video clip of Angelin, Nam and Fah on way to the Parliament house, being waaaay crazy. Only it's not only crazy, it's not only weird, it's not only eccentric, it's out of this world. O.O
Oh, but sorry for the bad quality, I guess my phone's not the best camera in the world, hurhur!
Enjoy!
BAH HUMBUG, I can't believe Mrs Kwok is baaaacccckkk. I swear to God, she's going to make me fail like nothing else.
The devil has never been so scary. ):
I LOVE ME, Jiali. :D
One last note, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO TENGYIN, & HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MARILOU! :D
definitely worth checking out when it opens this week (or next) - shia's awesome (nice to see hollywood giving the youngies a chance) and man, disturbia's creepykins.
"i'm still searching for the key, i sit down and think, it's kind of puzzling actually, i feel lonely and i write, i ponder on how it came to be, i look back on how it all started, i was just a boy looking for me, i didn't look yet it came by, Then you came along in my plea, i struggled and yet sank in your eyes, it was not on purpose but accidentally, and yet i want it from you, but you can't give it to me, you are my light of hope in times where i couldn't find me, i love you but you can't love me, isn't it just funny?"
"i'm sure its not there, not even a tiny bit, Why?i ask myself.i look in the mirror, see my eyes stare back at me, what's wrong with me?what have i done wrong? to not deserve it from you? questions and questions, pop in and out of my head.it drives me crazy. i know i can't give up,i won't,why must you be unfair? why must i not be given a chance? i'm in love but i'm lonely"
okay,not being mushy or trying to signall anything but i need you guys to tell me which one you guys prefer more okay? thanks. hehh. (actually coz i nothing better to do)
hmm.. maybe since most of you girls have nothing much to do,why not post things about how to read a girl's mind or sumthing. stupid thing to ask for,yes,but useful. darn useful for us guys right now. hehh. =)
Hopefully you guys would cut all the crap about finding fault with one another. I mean, if you're gonna keep blaming each other about the different shitty opinions you have; STOP IT- find somewhere else to throw your anger at.
This blog is created to DISCUSS about the opinions, not comment on one's selfless-ness. Really, you guys need to loosen up. You guys keep remembering the bad stuff in our class, what about the good stuff? We really had fun when we are having P.E, any fun events for that matter. You guys say it as if being in this class is a mistake, so deal with it. Anyhow, its an honest mistake- nobody knew their fate when they chose to be in this class.
STOP blaming each other. If you're one of those who think you didnt contribute to any wrongdoing to the class then you're wrong. Everybody did something wrong for not encouraging one another to do their part to make us a better class. If everybody have encouraged each other to stop playing a fool in class, wont you think the class would be much in control?
So guys, hopefully this post would mean something. You guys need to clear the air and help one another. Have fun while we can, its not like we're gonna stay young forever. We're friends and we'll stay friends as long as we can so lets make it worth while aye.
don know why i am here but just feel like writing in here well was sick on friday thought no one noticed never mind still not well yet even thought its saturday already ... well hope every thing turns out fine and the class goes back to become better then ever thats all i guess nothing much to say ... btw ms priya can i fire myself thanks i wanna sleep le... random posting...
Woh, I haven't been here for awhile and I already see alotta things happening. Well, I wont be giving out comments because people have their own say(eventhough sometimes they are just being self-centered)so, I'll just proceed and do my part to clear this unhappiness from our class.
Well, I'm reading this book titled "GOD's Blogs" by Lanny Donoho. Basically its about what GOD would write in his blog, if he had one. One part of the book he mentioned about nondisclaimers, about the different ideas people have on God and the problems that were caused when people disagrees with these ideas that come from different people. So you might think "What the heck Liyana's tryna say here?" Well, i'm trying to say that you guys have your opinions and different ideas about the class, but however things are gonna be, it wont make any difference; we'll still be 3C. So, let's make the best out of 3C while we're still young. Put away the grudges, the crap that you people are thinking and just get along with the class. If you hate 3C, so deal with it. You're 15, you're too young to hate something so magnificient in life. You guys are gonna be 15 just once, dont waste it on hatred, better yet, waste it on your monkey friends in class, like HW and others whom you think represent a monkey. Study is important, but hey, dont waste your 15th year studying 24/7 -365days. Well maybe study 3h/7daysperweek/100daysayear? Your pick. (:
-Love, your Chairlady.
* so here's some snaps i took from the book which I find very uplifting. :D
Information Report - English (x2) on Monday will be held in the lab. Before you go in though, start thinking about what you are going to focus on.

Well ok i am back ben here this is (maybe) a joke as the tittle states our class needs cold water seriously man(haha) up to u guys to take me seriously or not but we should all pour cold water over ourselves k
ok so pour cold water over ourselves k hope u guys get what i mean ok thanks cannot stay too long bye
Hey guys chill it man.. Dun take the comments so personally just treat it as some opinions from ur fellow classmates eh.
I mean really its not really worth it we are trying to let ppl voice out their feelings and if it is taken so personally it might lead to some misunderstanding so yeah chill it guys.
thanks for the advice there. i'll take those words in mind.
i wanna have a word about about today. the way you tell the whole class about my post. you make it sound as though i hate those few ppl.YES, i do dislike[hate is too harsh,i supposed] them. cos they didnt respect me and my friends.[so i have all the rights not to respect them] AND you make it sound as though i hate them bcos of jealousy. jealousy of not having the power to take over the class. NO.NO. NO. i dont want power.i dont want to rule the class. i dont want to take charge of anything. i rather stay quiet and do my own business. i dont care. im just saying out my opinions. nothing more.
About this blog thingy. Yes, its not wrong to give comments.[bad comments especially] I dont mind. Your words maybe hurtful to me just now but thats okay. Give comments all you want.
I have another thing to say. But im thinking twice. Its how me and Farah thinks about you Ms Priya.
It is starting to get rather worrying to see people coming in here and writing about how much they dislike the class and the so called "leaders"
FACT Our class does not have leaders.
Here i go with the school motto : Everyone should be empowered to step up and be heard. I'm sorry i don't mean to offend anyone here. There is a reason why our class is so divided - there is a severe lack in this empowerment. Sometimes it is misused too.
Let me explain why.
LMP, it is true. You cannot choose who is going to come into the class and teach you. You adapt. It is not easy being a teacher or a student. God knows, we are all dealing with different things - so let us deal with things the best way we know how. With grace and a little spunk. Getting over excited and wanting to complain about teachers will not bring anything. Get smart, get self-involved and be in the classroom for your own growth. For your own gain of knowledge because although i always say that life's most important lessons are outside school, school still plays a part in your overall development.
If you are content on keeping quiet and letting others take charge, there will be no development. If you think you can get by sleeping and just trying to get through your day in school, next year will be the hardest year yet. If you think that this is all to your life, this school, this classroom, your parents, siblings, girl or boyfriends, this maddening sound in your ear, you are sorely mistaken my loves. There will come a time when the screaming inside and feelings of frustration will amount to zilch. There's so much more coming.
Incidentally this reminds me of this dialogue in Heroes. (molly is supposed to be a little girl who can track people and matt's the police officer)
MATT: Okay. So ... how do we do this?
MOLLY: I just ... I think about him in my mind, then I point to him on the map there.
(She looks behind Matt. Mr. Bennet turns to get the map.)
MOLLY: I need a push-pin.
MATT: So you can find anyone in the world? You just need to think about them?
(They put the Book of WORLD Maps on Molly’s lap.)
MOLLY: Almost anyone.
MATT: Almost?
MOLLY: There's only one that I can't.
MATT: Who's that?
(Molly doesn’t answer him.)
MATT: Is it someone bad, Molly, like the boogeyman?
MOLLY: No. He's a lot worse.
MATT: And why don't you want to find him?
MOLLY: 'Cause when I think about him ... (whispers) He can see me
Ger, freaking scary.
I reckon what i am trying to say is this.
Be empowered. You guys naturally are it seems, but focus on the right thing yah..
You'll do just fine.
and if he can see you, trust me, you'll be glaring right back at him ;)
to be honest,i have to agree to what shiang ning said in her FIRST post. a portion i mean. nt all. this is what was said(i think) "abt you guys who PON class,if u dun wanna study just dun come to school uh,dun cause others to take the blame for you." however, it is human nature to not have the same particular interest in sumthing. yes, the students who did it were wrong,but are they to be blamed totally for the downfall of the army?(class i mean) yes,not all of us did it and yet received harsh words. But did we try to stop those who did it? you may be thinking,even if i did,it would have been in vain,they won't listen. yes,maybe it WOULD have been in vain but did we try? no,we didnt we didnt even stop them. That is why we are on the receiving end of these scoldings. because we didnt try to stop them. because we dun want these things to happen again. not because we want to contribute a siesta to the innocent but as a precautionary measure so as to not let it happen again. those who were in the wrong were indeed,well,wrong. yes. but we can still trust them cant we? they are part of our clan,part of our legacy. people change okay? instead of putting to blame,we should motivate them to change,to give them a want and a need to study.i am sure they wont do it again,considering the huge crisis that happened. thus, i'd like to say to those who have,or are going to PON classes, please think twice before you do it,or before you do anything that may bring us down.think,think and think again. our fortress has been heavily damaged,let us not watch it crumble.
i'd like to have a say in another point that has been brought up. It's about not liking our class. Firstly, i've noticed that there are many personal conflicts between people in our class. remember guys,we are,to this day,and to the last day of next year,classmates. let us not cause bad blood in the class. everything can be settled with words of civilised people. Are we going to keep on hating each other because of small matters? yes, some of you may not like this class now and want your old classes back. did you actually think,at the end of last year,that your class will stay together till the end of secondary school? i know,its hard because all of us are coming from four different places and going into a new territory. And because you guys are from different places,different conflicts that have been caused in the past have been brought into this new place. Let us not dwell in the past my friends. To be honest, i too would like to turn back the time and undo some mistakes which i have made in the past. for example,i have destroyed two of my good friend's relationships. i'd like to turn back the time and regain that friend's trust. i'd like to turn back to the time where i'm having fun in class with the malay guys,rebelling against the teachers, defying their every commands. yes,it was fun,it was united,you may say. but it never lasts long. why do you think the school divides our classes in our third years? because the third year is the year all of us learn the hardship in adapting to changes. it is the year all of us start discovering who we are,what we can be,what talents we have,what we are made for and what we are going to be for the rest of our lives. However,we have a chance my friends.yes, a chance. remember the adventure camp? remember how united we were? and during p.e? why is it we are only protected externally but vulnerable internally? we are like spiderman when he just discovered himself. he was strong at body and mind,but weak at heart. but soon after,he learned to be strong. he learned to do what's right. he learned to accept what he was made for. let us learn to be strong internally my friends. at first i too did not like this class. but soon realised,that in my entire school life,this is the only class which i'm unafraid to show my true colours. where i have no restrictions to speak my mind,which i am most comfortable and at ease to discover myself. like i said, do not dwell in the past.yes,the past is where you learn to change the present and therefore choose your future.but staying too long in a place you can't change doesn't push you forward but merely holds you back.remember this,my friends.
-afiq p.s. sorry i said too much,but this is wat has to be said. sorry. =)
Somehow I felt I never like this class once. Why? Class spirit aint that strong. And ya I gotta admit Im one of those who is not contributing anything to the class. Why again? I just can't be bothered seriously. I need to have a say about the last MINOR problems faced by this class. Not liking the teacher, ponteng classes, behaving like a 10 yr old kid like no one's business, etc. Not liking the teachers? SO? Heck care about it. Adapt with it and just try to concentrate. Its for your own good. You cant choose what you want just like that. Who started it? the so called leaders who i dont really look upon at. Who to be blame? THEM. I actually surveyed some of our classmates. The ones who is attentive in class, the quietest easy said. Surprisingly, they have the exact mindset like mine. Frankly, they dont really care at all about those problems. "they started it, so let them fix it back". those are the words from the quietest ppl and mine too. surprising? hah. Oh ya, one thing i just cant accept the fact is that. the so called leaders ask us to respect teachers. i believed they have to emphasize on respecting their own classmate too! f*** them. me and my group were standing up there. trying to get the class attention for our presentation. im not surprised that i couldnt get the attention from the 'naughty' ones. i expecting attention from the quitest ppl and the so called leaders. hah. guess what. that so called leaders didnt even gave their attention to us,their classmate, when we were presenting. oh fcuk. leaders are supposed to be good role model. but hell no, they just prove themselve wrong. sorry teacher, this are just my OWN THOUGHTS about them. i need to let this anger out. i will never ever gonna respect them,really. that attitude just turns me off. i dont mind making enemies in this class. like i said,i simply just cant be bothered. all i know, i sit on my place, study or sleep or whatever. thats it. i know i have a fcuked up attitude. but thats just me. thnks for reading my thoughts and opinion. dislike or like me. dont know dont care. (: oh yeah.LEON, all the best for being a vice-chairperson. dont take this sentence seriously "(never taken seriously,vice-chairman)" cause i know you ARE taking this seriously. so yeah. jia-yo!
Okay hows about we talk about something else people?
Debate topics or just our days and what is happening in our lives?
I'm sure something interesting is always around the corner, maybe post a predicament and see what people have to say? If you are posting a predicament, you can go anon. Three Cians might just have the answers you are looking for :)
Cheers people and don't forget them walkathon cards.
Eh sia la,no one take mi seriously at all sia =( ok la i know i just became the vice chair but den i can feel that its not easy being the vice chair or chair-person.
I mean just imagine la. You standing in front of 38 faces looking at you then you trying to convince them to work together as a class but they just dun seem to wan to listen to you. (Thats wad happen to mi,altho not a exact 38 ppl)
Anyway its just that the person standing out dere is trying to speak to you guys telling you guys to co operate with one another and they stand up for the class when the teachers finds fault wif us,but den in the end they get the blame.
I mean how would you feel if you were standing up for a friend and instead of him/her thanking you,you get scolded. Its not an easy task trying to pull the class together. So please please i hope you guys can really be more understanding towards those who are speaking up for you. Sometimes they may not really know how to express themselves and may hav said something harsh but im sure they dun mean it.. So yeah we should really hav the class spirit and work together ya?
Vice-Chairman, Leon

And shiang ning, i dunt wish to say anything, but i have no choice... i know its not wrong to speak ur mind out.. and well liyana's rite again(._.) it really hurts when u say u hate 3c... Think abt it, wad would miss priya think if she read it? u may like her.. but u cant juz hate the class... If u say that it has affected ur studies, fine... i cant say anything... but dont u think u are selfish? Caring abt urself only? Lyk wad mr goh said, "IF THIS CARRIES ON, MORE THAN HALF OF U WONT MAKE IT TO SEC 4" Its not our fault we cant adapt to any of the teachers, diff ppl = diff learning style, wad if i ask mr png teach u? i'm not boasting but i will understand, and i dunt think u will.. If other ppl pon class, u could have stopped them? its all for one and one for all, i admit i was at fault for not stoppnig them too, and i pon chinese...
I know... that since i am now not the class vc anymore, u all wont listen to me de... On my part, i seriously think that i have not done enuff, and i did alot wrong things, to miss priya, i really apologise for wad the class said...
The reason why I refuse to take existentialism as just another French fashion or historical curiosity is that I think it has something very important to offer us... I'm afraid were losing the real virtues of living life passionately in the sense of taking responsibility for who you are the ability to make something of yourself and feel good about life. Existentialism is often discussed as if it were a philosophy of despair, but I think the truth is just the opposite. Sartre, once interviewed, said he never felt once minute of despair in his life. One thing that comes out from reading these guys is not a sense of anguish about life so much as a real kind of exuberance, of feeling on top of it, its like your life is yours to create. Ive read the post modernists with some interest, even admiration, but when I read them I always have this awful nagging feeling that something absolutely essential is getting left out. The more you talk about a person as a social construction or as a confluence of forces or as being fragmented of marginalised, what you do is you open up a whole new world of excuses. And when sartre talks about responsibilty, he's not talking about something abstract. He's not talking about the kind of self or souls that theologians would talk about. He's talking about you and me talking, making descisions, doing things, and taking the consequences. It might be true that there are six billion people in this world, and counting, but nevertheless -what you do makes a difference. It makes a difference, first of all, in material terms, to other people, and it sets an example. In short, I think the message here is that we shouuld never write ourselves off or see eachother as a victim of various forces. It's always our descision who we are.
hey guys, despite all the emotions building and swirling around this blog, i am so proud of everybody because each and everyone of you has his or her heart in the right place.
Ok so our class has a tendency to be a little messy at times, bits of paper there, sometimes food wrappers, the occasional drink can, meh, but now that we know this, we can do something about it. bin it (i am strongly against brian's method of disposal although it might be a little cathartic - when i was a kid, i had a habit of throwing apples out of windows when i was bored and for some reason, i was always staying on high floors - but to date, nobody has died from a flying apple but Mr Sham, the last thing we need now is killer litter lol)
Next - Pon-ing class. again, now that we know this, all we need to do is stick up for each other and motivate each other (i know i used the word motivate eek) to stay in class and get through the lesson...
This thing about hating 3C, it is normal. Normal because like i said before, sec three is a transitional period for you. Some people adapt fast, some people take longer to adapt, some people may never adapt and look back on the class ten or twenty years later and think "damn, i loved that bunch of people. i wonder where they are now." Of course, they just as well may not have that thought either. That said, 15 is a transitional period and things can and will have a tendency to stir you up a bit here and there but again, it is normal. You need to find a coping system (and if any of you are thinking of the occasional ciggy and cocaine, please come and see me, so i can knock you on your head lol). I'm talking about your family, friends and your interests. There is a big big big world out there and like i always say, it is out there for you. There is no limit to what you can do my luvs - so do something, make some noise, get stirred up, go salsa dancing with your confusion....
Resistance is not futile, we're gonna win this thing, humankind is too good, we're not a bunch of under-achievers! We're gonna stand up, and we're gonna be human beings. We're going to get fired up about the real things, the things that matter! Creativity, and the dynamic human spirit that refuses to submit.
All that said, i don't hate 3C. I'm on the opposite extreme lol.
A few messages to some of the messages that i have read on the current page :
To my dear chair lady, i think you are awesome and you are doing a fantastic job. I say this because i believe this.
Baby Dino, hello!!!
Xiang Rong, lovely post, very diplomatic.
Brian, I hope you find the dude you are looking for lol.
I'm sorry if I let you/the class down in any way while you were gone. Maybe I didnt like working with Mrs Krishna at first. She's asking me do alot of stuff then I normally do for you(ms priya). So I was a bit irritated. But soon it got into my mind that she was new, so what the heck, I had to help. Sorry if the class gave you a shitty attitude when you came back, maybe they took advantage of your absence. Well, maybe I'm not the one who should be apologising here, but I feel guilty for not being a responsible chairlady while you were away.
(And for those who SHOULD be apologising, well, you know what to do.)
A MILLION APOLOGIES FOR MS PRIYA. --With Love, 3C Chairlady.
Dearest Shiang ning; Okay, maybe you are right. Maybe the class is choosy with the teachers that teach us. And maybe we couldn't adapt well to them. It really hurt when I got to know you HATED the class that much. If our class sucked that much to you, why cant YOU adapt to the class? Since you can adapt so well to the teachers, Why cant you adapt as well to your OWN classmates? Face it, you're gonna face your classmates,your friends, for the next 2 years; If you dont adapt to the class now, people in the class will never want to be friends with you knowing that you despise the class. All I need is your support in the class and class matters, even so, you refuse to show support. Honestly, go to another class, if you're gonna turn your back to the 3c. And about the vulgarities, I apologise if I said any. But you have to understand that leaders are standing up for the class. I'm sorry but you are not in our shoes, you dont know that what we are doing is to stand up for the class, these words are surely to come out. We are standing up for the class, and incase you havent notice, you ARE in this class. And we're trying our best to pull the reputation of the-class-that-you-hate-so-much up. The way I see it, you are just being self-centered,not caring how the others feel. Yes, maybe you are annoyed with always being blamed for what you didnt do. I, too, am annoyed and further more I am the class Chairman, how do you think I feel when teachers keep asking me about those students who PoN? Of course you dont care, because you're not the one taking care of 39 pupils and YOU are one of them. I HAVE to be a bit harsh on you because your words really hurt. So here it is. I just hope, things would get better in class.
Look ppl. I appreciate the feedbacks u have given me.pls get the facts rite. I'm not showing attitudes or wat, but im juz telling u guys how i feel deep in my heart. Im sure u all wanna noe wat all the 3cians are thinking dun u? Nam wrote on e board saying that she wanna noe our thinkings.. Hence i wrote everything how i seriously feel. I think Angelin's right. I havent adapt to 3c. but i will do my best to adapt ok? I wont get angry of wat e feedbacks u given. I juz wan to make it clear thats all. I have no intention to cross over u guys. Fah, u said I get out of 3c, juz bcos e thinking i have? Thn, wat abt u? pon class. made ms gan feel bad abt our class. lost trust in ms priya. as a ldr of our class, u shouldnt have done it. Its a gd thing to reflect but seriously, mayb u should apologise to her n persuade her to trust ms priya again? i do not wish to quarrel with u n make our relationship get worse. I feel that its e best if we could tok over. U dont have to say such heavy words saying i get out. its juz my opinion onli. seriously. if i've offended any1 of u here, i apologise okie? i really dont wish to fight or wat.. Juz pls dont use e vulgar word in front of e class while u all r toking ok? yup thats all i have to say. Shiang ning.
erh class, i think we must change our mindset towards the teachers in jvs.. why must we request to change subjects teachers? wat/where did the teachers did wrong anything?
its not the teachers fault lor haha.. its better for us to change and adapt to the style of teaching different teachers have.. rather than skipping supp classes then we are still the one at the losing end right>?
and i agree with wat mdm tan said... she told us tat our standard i way behind the good schools in terms of results and studies and i agree...
if u don agree, u can go visit the good schools in singapore... they are much more deciplined than us
pls behave larh.. if u all wanna slack during sec 3 sec 4 then start work hard for 'O'level sure u cant get good grades one.. foundation is more important!!
to ms priya: thanks for forgiving 3C in spite of all the troubles we created... haha..
haha.. tats all i wanna say larh can guess who i am???
xiangrong larh.. so easy all cant guess correct .. haha..okay cya
Ok ok people listen up(actually up to u to take me seriously or not)
go for me i feel that the class well ... okok i will just go straight to the point to ans every ones comments
First of all the class should be more united ok i know u guys will start saying that come on we all different people how to be united well i think that for us to be united first we must accept who we are(maybe off point) after doing that accept the class as a whole (right) once the class has accepted itself as a class then we need our leader=mrs priya she will then do her job(i mean in a sense) to lead our class then make the class become one(?)
Secondly all the stuff that has happened in school well every one knows a teacher/ teachers differently compared one another means we all know the teachers differently ya so what(that must be what u guys will say to me) well i think that since we all know the teachers differently why don we just (when they are in class) see them as what they want to show us don go all personal and stuff ya then after that both sides should well how to say(this is from chih peng) both sides teacher and students should adapt to each other give a little take a little ya(shrugs shoulders) then for every teacher why don we try and start again from mon (???)
Thirdly The class environment maybe itis a bit dirty but come on lets not become like the teachers and cirtisize ourselve (???) i stuggest that we all throw all our rubbish in to bin (come on its just next to the door btw is our class that big ?) then besides of having a duty roster when the people do the cleaning when we see stuff on the floor well pick it up and throw it away(ya?) i guess thats what i think if ur really want the class clean (then why not make it a joint effort by every one)
Not done yet sorry (first time i post so long) Fourthly I think that those people who r well out spoken i think that they are doing a good job (i mean at least they so dare to talk right in front of every one and also speak to the teachers for us they also support mrs priya and help her) and whatever they do or say is for the class/for the good of the class(ya) btw to those well not so out spoken its time for u guys to well speak ur mind about our class issues(ya) so speak out people
I don know what else to well when i think of something i will post Last of all to a united 3C like how we were during the sec three camp ONE FOR ALL ALL FOR ONE TOGETHER AS ONE CLASS 3C i think this can be our class culture as the most united class
wait wait wait not done yet mrs priya if u are reading this pls remember what u need to do on mon thanks
last of all
TO A FRESH NEW START ON MON
AND TO THE GREATER GOOD OF 3C
ONE FOR ALL ALL FOR ONE
3C ALL THE WAY
ONE UNITED CLASS
ONE CLASS ONE SPIRIT ONE UNITED PEOPLE ONE SOUND ONE GOAL
Okay, so I posted a comment about Shiang Ning's post already, but I guess I have more to say. Haha.
Anyway, somebody enlighten me about this: how does having a dirty classroom affect our studies, really? In my opinion, it's not affecting me. But then again, I don't have a sensitive nose, so I don't really know.
But yeaaaaaaahhhh, the class is really filthy.
Also, despite the abnormal things that happen in the class, the noise, the skipping, and all that, I still have to say I love 3C. So it gets a little noisy sometimes and you really can't think straight and miss out on all the important information, but if you think about it, these are the people you're going to spend about two years with, so shouldn't you try to accept them the way they are? Cooperation is right, but really, you have to try to accept people before you can start cooperating with them, that's all I'm saying.
Adaptation is also important, because I mean, sure, it was hard to adapt from sec two to three, from a class you know so well to one that you hardly know, but it's been seven months. Moreover, majority of Three.C now is made up of 2D'06 pupils, so I guess there shouldn't be much difference for you?
Not that speaking your mind is a bad thing, of course, but I guess I just have to disagree with your thoughts and opinions. No offence, okay? :D
On another note, should I create a blogskin for the class blog?
Lol im sorry theres so much litter around, i agree with u, its ridiculously funny... But! im proud to say ive never littered in class after the holidays, where does my rubbish go? not the bin, but out the window~ whee~ 3A gets de blame lmfao. I didn go school the past few days so i missed all de action n politics... damn!
The Truly Great, Magnificient and Benevolent Brian
This is my tots throughout my life tis yr. Many things happened tis yr. I wont name it. Its unpleasant. I shall onli tok abt class stuffs, n myself. This may hurt abit. Here goes. I HATE 3C! Honestly. I nv like tis class. Onli when tt time in camp. ONLI AT THAT TIME. why? cos. tis class is damn noisy. i hate it. esp when lesson time. I must say, i got badly influenced seriously. i begin to slack in class. i got worse results for my MYE. but its also bcos of SYF n SpeechDay worn me out. E onli thing i like abt is onli ms priya. she understands us. Y cant e class do e same? Y must SHE tok back to miss gan n make her angry?! ( i dun like e word "pissed") Most of us were ok for e teachers that teach us. Is those "leaders" of the class wans to change teachers. Eg Mdm Koh. i find her ok wat. y must tok to 3A n complain abt her? Y cant adapt to changes? Y must cre8 so much troubles?! another is Mdm Zainah. ITS OKAY WAT. Y MUST COMPLAIN!? I DIDNT SIGN ANYWAYS. But for Mdm Tan case, i think she changed alot. Now i begin to like her even more. I wan back 2D' 06. 2D'06 rocks. I hate tis class. I hate e life im gg through now. See ppl throw papers on e floors, tissue paper (most given by me). I FEEL DAMN GUILTY FOR TIS. PLEASE. KEEP E CLASS CLEAN CAN?! at e beginning of e yr i decided to do sth for e class: which is to help clean up. BUT, not even a day passed, classrm floors are dirty again. wat for i sweep? waste my time, my energy. After reading tis u may dislike me or wat. But, i wanna say out wat i seriously feel abt. Thats y ms priya cre8ed tis blog. I wan to b a simple gal, not complicated mindsets. Thats y i say out all my feelings. if u wanna noe my true self, tis is it. u can see it how i behave in the class. i dun like to act infront of ppl. it sucks. i wanna say tis to e "leaders", please STOP using that word "fcuk". U guys are polluting my mind, myself. even i dun say tis word out, i say them accidentally. I changed since sec 2 , no more vulgar. pls dont make me say those things again. Wat i really wan for tis class is to cooperate with one another. PLEASE STOP THOSE BO LIAO STUFFS WAT PON CLASSES. We are express class not NORMAL TECH. IF U WANNA PON, GO OTHER CLASSES. I DUN WISH TO GET SCOLDED FOR NTH. I MEAN, who wans? Miss Priya. Thank u for everything. Im sorry if i say things that hurts u. But i dun like to keep my feelings. It will make me sick. Sorry if i've changed e impression of u ppl of me. But, thats me. SOrry. Btw ppl, if u dunno how to throw tissue papers into e dustbin, pls bring ur own. I wont gib anymore. U nv bring, thats ur prob.
Ok i haven't gone all scarily psycho on everybody but this is the way i feel about 3C, i carry your heart, i carry it in my heart - i will never give up on you lot!
i carry your heart with me (i carry it in my heart) i am never without it (anywhere i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling i fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide) and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
I saw this lady perform at the mosaic festival at the esplanade this year and she's british. I absolutely love her album Fires and this is probably one of her more radio friendly tunes. I've been thinking about everything that has been happening in our class and i don't know why but this tune just POPPED into my head...
Oh, this road is long, this road is wide, It takes more than luck to last the ride, It takes strength and it takes courage to survive, And did someone ever say to you, "There's nothing bound in thought you cannot do?" Well, I've seen some things but not all of them came true.
So I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, Don't want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow, And I don't want to be afraid, don't want to look away, I'm learning to breathe, No I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, I just need a hope and a light to follow, Like sailors look to stars to find their way home, I'm learning to breathe on my own.
And I know a man who lost his wife, This is the way he chooses to describe his life, He says, "If I think too much, I find there's just a hole," But before she went, she left a son, He says, "Dad, you're not the only one, Maybe love is just a requiem for the soul..."
So I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, Don't want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow, And I don't want to be afraid, don't want to look away, I'm learning to breathe, No I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, I just need a hope and a light to follow, Like sailors look to stars to find their way home, I'm learning to breathe on my own.
Oh, do you still feel small? Just a speck of life on an ocean wave, Does it pull us all? Does it pull us all?
So I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, Don't want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow, And I don't want to be afraid, don't want to look away, I'm learning to breathe, No I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first, I just need a hope and a light to follow, Like sailors look to stars to find their way home, I'm learning to breathe on my own.
I honestly don't know why i am starting this blog but i'm hopeful about where it is heading. Anyway, i didn't mean to start my day by yelling at everybody in the morning, was a little stressed up over the whole thing.
A mini confession (ok so maybe not so mini)
I definitely did my own bit of skipping lessons and playing truant but i was young and silly. I was a happy little muffin always running off to spend my time loitering around far east plaza. yer. sssssh please. I can't step into Lips Enterprise now without the uncle screaming "EY YOU POLKA DOTS!"
Yeah it was fun and i thought i was escaping for a bit, but i was really coming back to the same thing. Time keeps ticking, the world moves on and you realize that you have spent too much time running and a couple of things happen
a) everything and everybody moves on b) in doing so, everyone finds a way of dealing or accepting with the monstrosity that is life c) you're the only person left behind and trust me my little munchkins, it is not the best feeling in the world..
My advice for you right now is this,
Life is presenting you with a truck load of trouble. It will not get easier. Parents, schools, teachers etc, it will not stop and it will not stop once you get out of school either. Once you understand this, you learn to adapt (nobody says that you have to understand) but adapting works just as well because you start to realize that for once, you are focusing on you.
Does that make sense?
God i hope so because i have this tendency to yak and yak...
Bottom line....skipping lessons = nowhere...stay in class, deal with it positively and keep working at it...it still may cause you a little bit of suffering but hey, like i said, you are doing it for yourself.
as far as i'm concerned, there's no one else more worthwhile...
Like our old friend Emerson once said, life is a succession of lessons, which must be lived to be understood.
Life is change. Growth is optional. Choose wisely.
THAT WAS WHAT WE SAID!
Oh, HELLO, our beloved Chairlady, Liyana Bte Horsahamay(aka Mau)! :D
Of course;
