Well, these are the photos that I managed to upload.
since my computer is currently going bonkers, I guess I should upload only these photos.
The gfirst two photos are actually one of our reunion dinner which was held at the Punggoll Seafood restaurant.
It is quite a famous restaurant for their delicious food, especially their Mee Goreng.
Anyway, wen tthere with my uncle,grandma and the rest of the family.
the third photo is actually one of the photos that I took at the "sentosa flowers 2009".
Well, there are more, but as I said before, my computer is currently "under Mantainance" so I believe I should satisfied with these few photos uploaded.
Tomorrow would be the deadline, and I believe this would be the last post on this blog.
However, I believe I won't delete it, I would just place it as a link to my blog as a memento of this english blog assignment.
On this high note, I bade all, Goodbye!

It’s officially the first day of Chinese new year.
Well, my family started off with going to the temple.
It sure was smoky there and I nearly got burned, again.
Well, after that, we went off to my uncle’s house, located at serangoon.
Went there for a steamboat lunch after which we sat down to have a chat.
We left shortly after, and went to my…grand aunt’s house?
Well, I’m not really sure how we are related, but we are related and that covers it.
Played with the dog, Wendy.
She was the first dog I ever touched, as in the first time I touched a dog, it was the time when I touched her several years ago.
There were quite a large number of people there, a total of three generations.
Pretty amazing to me.

Had a chat with them well not exactly since I was playing with the dog.
Anyway, went off, this time back to my own house, So as to get ready for my relatives who are coming to my house today.
Wow, its now that I realize that there are four generations in my house.
That is, if it includes my relatives
Anyway, I’m typing this post in the middle of the time when they are here.
I do not know why, but I don’t seem to enjoy it at all, unlike both my sisters.
I just can’t feel any mood at all.
Well, I guess I should just go and play a game of cards or play my games in my PSP till I got the mood.
Bye until next time, and a Happy Chinese New Year to all!

It is the official Lunar New Year Eve today.
It sure is the start of a celebration for those who celebrate Chinese New Year.
Well, nothing much today, asides from some last minute clearing up.
As it approaches 5pm, my family got ready as we were leaving for a seafood restaurant for a reunion dinner.
I’m not very sure it’s this day which people celebrate their reunion diner but oh well.
Anyway, made our way down to the Punggol seafood restaurant located at Punggol Jetty.
Yatches can be seen parked there, some old some new.
Well, went to pick up my uncle at the MRT before that and we took some photos for my grandma.
Soon, the restaurant was ready so we went in and sat down.
Well, it isn’t really more of a restaurant since we were sitting at the outside area instead but I guess no one really cares.
Anyway, had dishes such as pepper crab, steamed sea bass, boiled prawn, chicken etc.
Oh and the traditional ‘Lohei’ which is actually a mixture of different stuff such as crackers, salmon, plum sauce etc.
Well, it was quite weird that they were rushing all the dishes out at once though we were allocated a 2hr and a half slot.
We soon found out as more and more people started piling up.
Good thing we had a reservation, but I think only people with reservation are allowed in since the place is jammed packed.
Their Mee Goreng, fried noodles used to taste great with that spicy taste, but today’s Mee Goreng quality seriously dropped.
Oh well, it was quite tasty.
Well, with their typical rushing at us we decided to leave earlier instead.
Before desert was served, my sister and me took off, as they wanted to take some pictures too.
Anyway, took some but on the way back, we saw this arcade.
Well, it isn’t much of a arcade, since there were only a few machines available.
Saw a staircase so we went up.
Quite a interesting little room, so took some photos for my sisters.
Went off shortly since my dad was calling us back.
Finished the desert and went back to the car, driving home after sending my uncle back to a bus stop.I’m sure going to gain weight after this, but oh well, a reunion dinner comes only once a year, so what’s the big deal?

Happy Chinese New Year!
Its New Year again and I would like to wish everyone reading this post a very Happy Lunar New Year!
It was quite saddening when we found out that we did not win the Chinese New Year decor competition, but at least we tried our best. As what most people would say, “Failure is a step closer to success”
It sure was fun decorating the class though.
Anyway, we had the CNY concert today.
Since I am in Chinese Orchestra, I had to perform for the school along with the others.
Jeremy, Russell, Jonah and Justin were also involved.
We got a special privilege to go for recess at 9 since we had to practice.
We “coincidentally” saw some of our seniors and went over for some casual chatting.
Before leaving for the CO room, we went around spreading new ear greetings to anyone we can see.
The looks on most of their face were somewhat shocked so we stopped.
Went down to the hall to get ready.
Finally, another time when the air condition is turned on.
That is because we had some special folks coming over, though i do not know who.
Anyway played both songs without making much o a mistake.
After which, we all had to leave our instruments at the Chinese Orchestra room and return back down to sing(?)
The singing part of the concert did not go well at all.
Since most of us did not know how to sing, practically everyone started speaking gibberish.
Everyone on stage was laughing but i bet the students below the stage could not understand what the joke is about, tipped from their queer faces when they saw all of us laughing like madmen
Overall, it sure is one of the most fun Chinese New Year celebration i ever went through.
Rushed to put on our class tees and take a photo at the school pond.
After that, everyone was dismissed and everyone scattered at a blink of an eye.
Not for me and a few others since we were still playing with the instruments.
Anyway, went back to my primary school to hopefully, find our teachers.
Sadly, we could not find much but we only found a handful of them, which were all preparing to leave.
Left the school and went to my friend’s house since he wanted me to teach him how to play a instrument as he was going to change his CCA from band to Chinese orchestra.
Reached home at about 6 + and here i am blogging.
Anyway, got to stop now for dinner.
So that would be all for now, and at this high note, i would like to wish everybody a
HAPPY EARLY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

Chinese orchestra practice ended late today.
Well, it didn’t really end late; it’s just that my section had to stay back for more practice.
Its not that we don’t play well enough, okay maybe that’s partly the reason but their main reason was to teach us “tai feng”, in English, just moving with the music while we play.

Combined practice ended at 12 pm, all the other members went home except for some.
My section had to stay back as mentioned earlier.
We were finally released at 3 pm.
That would be six hours straight of practice.
Take that those who say we Chinese orchestra members are slackers.

Anyway, had quite a number of tasks to complete so I decided to go home instead.
Actually, my mother wanted to bring me out to buy some pants for me.
But as I said, time constraint so I decided not to go.

Today’s bus came fairly quickly, but the driver; gosh I do not know what to say about him.
Can I describe him as reckless?
He swerves and brakes without warning, travel at speeds he should not be traveling at and he sure has a way of braking when everyone is unprepared.
Well, finally got off at little India station as usual.
Took the train back to Punggol.

Reached the lrt in time and took it back.
On the route, I saw this approximately 9-year-old Dutch girl in the lrt.
Wow, her hair sure was long, it was up to her waist.
In contrast, her dad was bald.

Anyway, I believe I should stop here now, counting the fact that there are still projects to be done.

10:38 PM, Thursday, January 15, 2009

It is about 10 pm now and I should have been sleeping already.
Its counted kind of early but well I got to wake up at 5 AM + so it isn’t that early,
Since I’m the type of people that needs a lot of sleep.
So I believe I should try to make this snappy and get it done over with.
I started the day with math.
Appears that we do not have any test today after all.
Well I guess I must have heard wrongly.
Then it was geography.
Nothing much in that lesson, although I do admit that I feel very bored in that class.
And to think that I actually used to love geography.
After that was recess.
Had to bring the forms to Mrs. Lim but could not find her anywhere.
So decided to go for recess then.
Returned from recess.
It was time for English lesson.
Mr Maran didn’t come for class.
At first everyone was “quietly” waiting.
Then hell broke loose.
Well, at least I managed to complete reading the whole book of Macbeth during the spare time since there was no English lesson after all.
Though I started on chemistry but it was too late, so I only managed to do half a page.
The last lesson of the day, literature.
We had a test on that today.
Good thing I remembered to do some research on the topic.
Well, the word limit was 200, I hate word limits, and somehow, I managed to hit 00 on the dot.

Had to go for Chinese orchestra practice today
Practiced a few songs, after which the instructors came done.
Practiced on our own since the instructor was teaching another instrument.
First three secondary ones to join CO even though the orientation have not started yet.

My father scolded me since I was late.
Appears he was in a bad mood that day.
Had some arguments with some shop person.
Oh well he won I guess, so they are now discussing some other stuff.
Its hard for me to explain the conversation in a few sentences.

Reached home at about 9 plus, leaving me so little time to my homework.
Luckily there was only Chinese homework due tomorrow.
I guess the rest have got to wait.
Anyway, the next few days shall be pretty hectic, as CNY is coming around the corner.
Shall be staying back much longer and more days since we have so little time left to SYF and we still have to prepare the songs to be played on CNY.Its getting later by the minute now so I believe I shall stop here.

7:19 PM, Wednesday, January 14, 2009

Today sure was quite a busy day.
I blundered on the dates, though I’m quite sure I heard correctly.
I thought that the deadline for the Chinese New Year decoration is by this Friday.
Turns out it is on next Wednesday.
Wow, I sure messed up this time.
Anyway, quite a number of people stayed back to help with the decoration.
Such as Justin, Jonathan hoong, Jonah, Elliot, Russell, Jeremy, Ren da, Siddarth, Mikail, Hadi and Joel.
I must really thank you guys for helping, oh and Mrs Lim too.
Though we didn’t managed to put up everything by today but it sure was a great effort.
Anyway, there isn’t much left to do, only the making of the firecracker, some sticking of the rest of the decoration and that should be all.
Come to think of it, most of our stuff are all D.I.Y items.
Anyway, days like this sure do bond the class together in my opinion, or at least those that were present.
Photos were taken but sadly, I can’t upload them.
Well, they can be acquired at the main class blog, but I will still try to post them up.

We calculated our B.M.I today too.
Luckily, I fall under the healthy range.
That sure was a relief.

Anyway, this should be all for today I guess, considering the fact that I still have homework to be done and research too.
Bye till next time.
