wednesdays and eap

every wednesday, i'm relieved cause my timtable slows down. i have no more full days! yayness mann... today eap was fun cause we were acting retarded. and we were eating rebecca's fish and chips from her lunch. i told joanna that if every eap class was as retarded as this one, i wouldn't mind the boring subject so much. i think everyone was too bored to be good today.

i just finished reading the online straits times cause i find the newspapers here [The Age]have very little world coverage, like 4 pages? i wish online ST had the cartoons too! heheh. but the good thing about The Age is that 2 of my favourite cartoons appear daily whereas in ST it appears only on sunday: zits and wizard of id. anyway, i read that you can start applying for the NDP tickets on the 16th of May. so i went to the website to see what it would be like and i found this

its an online game and the prize is a samsung handphone. you can only start playing with it on the 19th of may though... quite cool. if anyone wins the handphone and read about the contest from here, don't forget to thank me ok?

ah. i wonder what we'll do for national day here. i guess the 5 of us singaporeans staying at albert house will gather round and start singing 'this is home.... truly... where i know i must be....' i was never really patriotic though. but i do like the fireworks at NDP. i wonder if they have coverage of NDP here.

i remember gb was asking for girls to join the NDP contingent when i was sec 2. i wanted to go but i heard it was really time consuming. 3 times a week practice, just to learn how to stand there and stone for half an hour until the president comes. as if we don't know how to do that. we do it everyday in school, stoning until the teacher dismisses us. ty went for it though. apparently, everyone wanted to take photo with her 6 year badge cause mg is the only school with a full company, ie. primary and secondary are together. therefore, only we can obtain 6 year badges as students. i want the 9 year badge! sob. oh well.
