HAPPY NEW YEAR!! :D:D
A Brand new year! a brand new start.. a brand new.... principal. -.- ( i don't like her)
So! 2011.. a year of fun? excitement? memories? O'levels! wonder what's in store for us this year.. Missing 2010 already!
So.. December.. what an awesome month and awesome way to end 2010.. on the 26th, went back to APSN for YV afterglow. The last time we would get together as YVIP 2010.. :( but we made the most out of it.. Had a blast! The attachment performances were amazing! so were the videos.. Surprised our tfs with a flowerpot of notes and sweets.. :D and got our certificates and photos! :D Sang the YV song.. no one is ever gonna forget that song. so touching sometimes.. And the YV dance too!! Grease Lightning FTW! After everything ended.. Team rocket made their way, after a very long decision, to Vivo City.. Where we went to Carls Junior to eat.. though halfway i had to leave and go back home cause of my parents. :( But thankfully i saw my tfs( Eugene, Lewis, Vicky) before i left.. :D
So YVIP has ended.. :( i miss it so much. It has really thought me loads.. and new skills i can use in the future and better social skills. New friends and memories.. good times. good times.. No camp can ever beat YVIP.
On the 28th, i had another camp to go for. This time it was my own school's secondary one orientation camp. It was..... well... okay. nothing special. wasn't that great. most of the things were all last minute. The camp comm was all the exco ( not that that's a bad thing). but it definitely wasn't as fun at YV. All of us that went to YV had to agree that there was never a boring moment in YV but in our camp.. loads. Every minute we were busy in YV, but in ours. we had loads of time to slack. Okay, enough comparison.
So, the first day, i didn't really get to do much cause i had to go for band practice. That was boring.. hardly played.. ah well, same old.
Second day, had carpark duty.. gosh i hate that duty now. and the Secondary one pupils came in! Gosh.. some of them are so small and cute while others are just... hmm.. okay. Got them into classes and guess what! the new principal has decided to change the class names. So now 1A1 is 1/1, 1A2 is 1/2, 1T1 is 1/3 and so on.. how retarded.. so i'm guessing that my class, 4E1, is now 4/5.. i hate that.
So, in the morning it was mostly talks and talks for the parents and the sec ones. and the principal is really good.. She's given 30 mins for her talk and instead she takes up 1hr and 30mins!! like how can one talk for so long.. even our old principal wasn't that long winded. Imagine, we'll have to listen to the same thing on the first assembly. :( die.
For the afternoon, the sec ones were taken around the school to the different performing arts CCAs. to try out and maybe join. So i had to go with band and like try to get the sec one's in.. nothing much.. all they wanted to do was bang the drums once and go somewhere else.
That night, after that sec ones had left, we SL had to learn the mass dance and teach those SL that didn't know. PARA PARA FTW! :D even the super seniors love it!
Third and final day. (aka the best day)
Morning.. the sec ones had cheer making and flag making sessions. i like 1A2 the best! :D and in the afternoon was fun and games. I was the station master along with Luting, Clarie and Nabilah. for Butt Slide.. where you slide along wet chairs and duel with the other team member and try to win by scissors, paper, stone. winner continues and so on.. the loser however gets a great big soaking. :D So.. the super seniors, mainly Nick, Bryan, Chang Jie, Chen Kwang and Hedy decided to help us in the drenching of sec ones. :D and us. i think all of us station masters were more wet then all the sec one's we splashed combined. All thanks to Nick, Chang Jie, Chen Kwang and their never ending pails of water. :D
IT was loads of fun! splashing them and us.. water bombs were flying as well.. and we were like drowned rats when the games came to an end.. after 2 hours of constant water splashing.. and it was cold too, cause of the wind that was blowing. BRrrr...
After a debrief and all, we went Hoommeee.. :D:D
31st December.. last day of 2010, Went to a friends house for BBQ and to count down to the new year. :D met a few friends and all.. :D had fun.. stayed till 2 am then headed home. :D there were a lot of drunk ppl at the party too.
So school is starting soon.. gotta start everything again. waking up early, studying and all.. whoosh.. So, Happy new year everyone! hope its a good one for you and i'll see you guys around! :D

HElooo everyone!
MERRY CHRISTMAS! :D:D hope it's a good one for everyone!
Soo.. since october i have been really busy.. hehe. School ended on the 30th of oct.. and i'm going to 4E1 next year! :D yay! my whole class got promoted. yay!
November.. nothing much happened in the first few weeks. except for band practices and Open house.. just played with the band.. didn't get to be a tour guide.. sadly.
Then came the last week of November! The best time! :D from the 30th of november to the 3rd of December i went for YVIP camp! There was a pre-camp on the 28th, where we met up with everyone and got to know our group members and our tf. Our group, 6's tfs are Eugene and Lewis! the two most awesomest tfs!! :D:D Created a group name a an identity. Mass group with group 5, vicky's group! :D Together we are Team Rocket! (pokemon) We are Jessie and group 5 is James. :D The two awesome groups!
On the 30th, we met up at the mrt and went to our camp site together at Camp Challenge at sembawang. Played ice breakers and really bonded together. Had a few workshops here and there.. and slept in a huge bunk.. Guys and girls together. just that there was an invisible barrier at the door. :) the second day, after learning te YV dance, we had a disabled challenge.. the first 6 groups (us) had our hands tied together and then the rest of the groups were blindfolded.. and the blindfolded people had to feed us. really fun. hor fun and chicken wing was a tough thing to eat. but fun! :D and learnt the YV song as well. In the afternoon, had teambonding games! Went to sembawang park for some games.. at the end had a whole water fight.. but it ended earlier.. cause someone got hit. :( haiz.. But it was fun.. we won some games.. and lost some. but it was great fun! Some workshops again.. at night.. had campfire prep, dancing. :D oh oh, secret pals.. we were all blindfolded and had debrief in different groups. didn't know who we were beside and all.
Third day.. morning had the YV dance again.. and and had another workshop and went out before lunch for a disabled challenge. Yun rong and Yi Hao was mute, so they weren't allowed to talk for like 5 hours. Huey Yin was wheelchair bound and Jia En was blind.. taped cotten wool to her eyes and wore sun specs. I was bandaged up and couldn't use my hands. Cindy was observer and Yvonne was Deaf. Went out to Junction 8 and AMK hub.. had lunch at J8, bought mac and went up to the sky garden.. Eugene had to feed me.. ish.. felt so helpless.. haha! had to do a few task.. like YR and YH had to buy food for us, without talking.. and i had to dial some numbers.. couldn't put my hand in to get the coin.. HAHA. It was real fun. people kept staring at us, wondering.. :D it rained when we were heading back.. got drenched! HAHA.. the bus stop was like on a hill and the water just poured down and into our shoes. Gross. had free time for like 2 hours. and did a last minute campfire prep.. Then at night.. CAMPFIRE! :D IT WAS AWESOME! that's it.. the old birds came back and we were all high and hyper. dancing and singing.. and the performances by all the 12 groups were all just as good.
That night.. campfire ended at like 1.30am.. lights out was at 2 am.. but everyone was up and talking for like hours.. in the end, at 4am, the tf and comm came in to get us to sleep.. but a group of us, Eunice, Sey Chee, Vicky, Yun Rong, Melissa and a few others didn't want to sleep. so we continued to talk and talk till around 4.30am. headed back to the bunks and slept.. Vicky slept with me.. no space anywhere else in the bunk.
The next morning we were all dead to the world.. alarms rang but no one got up.. The tf's were all late! woke up at 7 am, eventhough they were meant to wake up at 6.30am.. but it was the last day. so it was okay. Had a photo taking session group and mass group as well as the whole YV. cleared up the place and then debrief and one last YV song.. a few cried. and after a few words with our tfs, we all left for home.
But thankfully it wasn't the last time we were seeing each other. Attachment! We were attached to Cheshire Home in AMK. it's a physically disabled home.. going there was a brand new experience. We mainly interacted and played games with the clients in the home. Helped feed some during lunch and dinner. Made a few new friends. :D 2 weeks at Cheshire.. but for 2 days, went over for an exchange programme at Bishan Home, an intellectually disabled home.. Different experience but great fun as well.. the clients there were really fun! :D
So December was a very very good month for me.. i LOve YVIP.. hopefully i can go back as a tf or helper.. :D:D it'll be great.
LAst week, went down to KL, and got to see everyone. :D carolling was the best.. though it was tiring.
2011 coming soon.. wish everyone the best! see you guys soon! :D

It's 10/10/10 :D
It'll only happen once in a century, and i'll probably be in the air or ground by the time the next 10/10/10 arrives. :) So, since today is such a nice number, i suppose i'll make this blog alive by posting something. :D yea? but who reads? I think no one really.. ah well, memories for me then.
So, Exams have arrived, and i'm just left with Physics and Biology paper 1. I really really wanna score well for the end of year and not fail a single thing. Only a year left till O'levels.. Scary how fast time has flown. It's was just like yesterday that i just stepped into Greenridge. I'll probably miss the school a lot once i graduate. Or maybe not the building but my friends and teachers. Gosh, the sec 4 are gonna be graduating on friday. All the best yea? :D
Apart from exams, nothing much has happened, just that my grandparents visited. Sadly we couldn't do much as I had to study. :( Never mind, I'll make it up by going down to KL in december.. If there's time. oh yea! YAY! I'm gonna be going to Cambodia for the CIP trip in less than a month. :D Can't wait. We'll be building a kitchen or something for the kids there. It's gonna be a really good experience for all of us. Let's go!
Gah. I really don't know what to post. So i guess i'm gonna go study a bit more and get the exams done and over with. I can't wait till tuesday comes! Freedomm!! :D and probably bowling. :D

I'm really lazy. I know, it's been more than 2 months since i last posted. but who reads? :)
Anyways, PTM was yesterday. Thank goodness I had duty, so i didn't have sit sit and listen to the talk. :X. I really really need to buck up. My standards have all dropped, especially the sciences. All my teachers agree on the same thing that i need to prioritize my time and stop being so active. But i can't help being active cause i like to do stuff all the time, except study. :/. Ah well, 1 month before EOY.. jia you Ember.
What's up with me? well, The past week i haven't been going to school, but for the right reason. :D ( but this isn't helping my studies) I have been going to Hwa Chong for some Physics sabbatical. Its on Helicopters and how they work and all.. It was a really awesome course, though we had way too much of spare time that was supposed to be spent on flying the simulator helicopters and the R/C helicopters. On the 4th day of the course, we got a treat by being able to go to the Sembawang Air Base. It was a really really Cool experience. We got to see the apache and chinook. It was AWESOME! :D Sitting in the Chinook was really nice. :D The difference is that the apache is like the sports car and the chinook is like a car. I had a really fun time in hwa chong, though i was the only girl. :).
Oh yea.. I'm really glad that i met someone that is so so so awesome. My sister, hillary. :D She is there all the time and anytime. Cheering me up when i'm down and all, Listening to my crapping and just being there. Thank you soo much for being in my life. I'm really really grateful. :)
So So.. nothing much going on. Oh, Teacher's Day is coming soon.. Tuesday is the celebration and and i'm erm. dancing. :) K-pop dance. A mash up of a few dances. :D it's..... nice :D i like it. first time ey. :D alrighty.. i'm gonna go practice now. :D:D it's an awesome dance.

Hey everyone.
My blog is so dead. But I'll come back sometimes to update. :D I'll try my best.
So, what's up with my life? Well, the June holidays have arrived and so far, it doesn't feel like a holiday. However going to Malaysia over the previous weekend to attend a wedding was fun. Seeing all my church friends was awesome. Will really miss them when they go off to further their studies.
My exam results have been really really unsatisfactory. Got to buck up and study hard. Hopefully will change by this holidays. Will try my best. :) Gambatte Ember!
I'm currently attending the 16th SLC at Hwa Chong and it has been an awesome three days. Tomorrow is the last day. :( sadly. But we'll make the best of it. Alleba Rocks!! :D Go Youth Community A!! Who are we, are we, are we? 16, 16 SLC!! It is a really really good convention. If you juniors get the chance, Take it!!! trust me! After just three days, we have had so much of fun and bonded really really well. Foreigners and Locals alike. :D Hope Amy, Ming and Allen have a good impression of Singapore! :D SLC rocks!!!! can't stop saying it. cause it really really does.
The first day was orientation and my faculty, Alleba ( which is a filipino search engine BTW) really bonded. Walking round and round Marina Square and Suntec City helped i guess. :D.
The second day was pure brain cells dying. We had to think really hard to come up with 2 action papers in 5 hours. On the topic of stopping the spread of inaccurate info and the impact of the misguided info. We had to split up and bring up all our brain power to get the paper done. and we just made it before the Youth Community meeting. In Youth Com A, There is Alleba, Accoona and Eluta. We are getting on well with each other. Especially Eluta and Alleba. :D
The third day, today, was very relaxed after the rather taxing day yesterday. We just had to touch up on the action papers and then help our community with the action papers, following we combined them together and presented them at the network meeting where all the communities meet. Alleba's sprit is really really high!! especially the girls :).. Kelvin and Zong chen must come tomorrow!! :D today we also had photo taking session. They took a lot of photos for our team. But it was worth it. :D now we have to prepare for the grand finale. gonna dance with the other two faculties.
So, the past week of the holidays have been good. I have really enjoyed the SLC and will make the most of the last day tomorrow. :D
Alrighty, hope everyone else is enjoying their holidays in their own ways. :D

Hello..
First post in 2010..
And i am starting to feel the stress and pressure from the mad amounts of homework set each day. On top of that, CCA, 3 times a week now. So no free time! except for sunday.. Grrrr.. And it doesn't help that some teachers aren't teaching properly or students make unnecessary noise. especially A maths.. am starting not to understand a few stuff and it's making life hard.. What more, Band drags on and i hardly have time to do anything i want. I can't even read stuff up. haiz......... :(
