enjoy ur day(which ever day it is ure reading this on)
lame.aH

and now it's time to pursue your toilet paper

2009-07-11T12:47:00.004+08:00

hi everyone

yup this blog is really dead. i guess i'm 75% responsible for it since i was the naggy one who posted an entry almost every other week. anw, i caught suxin's play last night and over supper later, i was told that at least one person reads my entries! that's not too bad, so that explains why i'm back here today.

firstly, i enjoyed the play! great job, suxin. although i needed your little tutorial at the end, but it really made all the difference. thanks for including geography in it. nice :)

secondly, i almost became a calefare last night. i was late and was allowed in when they were transiting to the second short play. it was pitch dark and being old & thus blind, i almost walked onto the set! had to spend the duration of the second play trying to blend in with the pillar at the side (& luckily it was a short play). even then, suxin spotted me when she walked off the set and good thing she maintained her composure instead of mistaking me for a ghost or something? :)

later, mr tan, who had also spotted my embarrassing attempt to play hide and seek, said i should have just calmly walked onto the set and pretended i was a shopper. haha.

anw, it's less than a month to the start of another chapter in your lives. toilet paper because during my time, that's what it was called....i'm not sure about the origin/meaning behind it, maybe it meant everyone needed it, or that it was important, or that it's worthless but you still need it....

so as haemal says, it would be good to meet up before you all get super busy again, and w jalene going to another continent. therefore, pls reply to his email! and keep me posted. i'll try to make it, if i don't get killed by PW first.

love,

ms h

Hey guys. I think it's time for another class gathering soon.Has to be soon cos ppl mite not be as free once uni n NS n everything else starts proper.

anw,since i duno how free u guys will be, our cls gathering can be any of the 3:-

1. Open House style (someone donate their house...like last time)

3. Just Food (just meet up for lunch/dinner)

Wanxin again.

LAST ASSIGMENTTTTTT

2009-03-06T01:28:00.002+08:00

Hello hello! :) Has been more than awhile since i blogged here.
Because i'm the ever so responsile AHEM pee double-you rep, i feel obliged to complete the last assignment The Other Ms Huang has, uh, assigned.

I'm not a fan of mushy gushy iloveyous, but i've to say that i'm pretty darn glad that i am a part of 3607 because without this lot, i wouldn't have gotten though jc.
(insert fairies dancing around with hearts)

I'm sure we all have to agreed that this is a very special class, & despite our many shortcomings, it's lovable all the same. And COUGHSSS much better than many others, HEH :B

So.. Well, no matter what crappy (or not) results we get tmr, i hope we all live with, & accept them, & move on. And grow to love them! :)
And rmb that even if we leave jc with a pathetic (or not) cert, there's more to life than academics, so look on the brrright side of life, savvy?

And Ms.Huang thankyou for not cheating on us hahahaha. Thankyou for all the patience you had with us, the effort you put in for us; Tolerating our crap x100, and you've surely changed everyone of us here in one way or another, smoothening out our rough edges.

Special apology on behalf of my amigos (without permission, but what the heck) We've been nightmares most of the time, & some of the worst kinds of students a teacher can ever have. It is not in any way personal or intentional, the trouble we stir up. It just comes naturally lol..

So thankfully we will be students for not much longer hahaha. But really, we're sorry for our senseless behaviors, & the headaches it caused you. (Maybe we're secretly responsible for your toenail turning black, not your shoes)
I can only hope that your future students will be nothing like us :D

And for the record you're one of the bestest (yes bestest IS a word i insist) teachers i've ever met, & one of the few that i do not actually.. dislike.

Oh and the fact that i'm the second one "submitting" this assignment, it's a pretty good change, no? :)

And to my amigos!, no need for words lah right. Zoe's penguins that cannot swim say it all on my behalf HAHAHA.

Wanxin (who is unemployed & would not mind a job offer :D)

(And this IS mushy uggghh sorry all)

greetings from another teacher... a relief teacher haha!

2009-03-02T14:48:00.003+08:00

hello i guess im gonna be the only one blogging here for the last time right?

okie for those of you who don't know, im actually relief teaching back at my secondary school. :)

so how has life been since we finished our A's?

oh well life has been good.

i got to procrastinate all i want
catch up on exercise that i missed during the whole studying period
catch up with the good ole friends whom, once again missed during the studying period
got to eat lots and lots of good food
got to go on lots of outing
got to learn a lot of new things
went back to yoga classes
had fun teaching some of my classes. dun ask me whether its my calling cos i reali dont know ;)
learning driving. awesoome fun. LOL.
earn $$$$ and splurge happily
shopping shopping and more shopping!

yup. ive basically enjoyed these past 3 months of freedom. but my job is something which i rather enjoy so im thankful that i went for the relief teaching job. i just get this sense of satisfaction whenever i finish a class. of cos there were ups and downs and student management is reali one tough thing to do. so kudos to ms huang who had to endure all our yakking durin class >.<

i celebrated both life, and death right around my 19th birthday. it is something thats probably gonna be etched in my mind for awhile. but jaclyn left us fond memories of her really and yes, it may still be painful for some of us, but at least we know, she's probably in a better place now :)

ANYWAY. erm results. hahah GOOD LUCK PEOPLE. realise the taking of the results is the final end to all that you have to JC?

we can really bid farewell to the two years that we have put in

our blood, sweat and tears, literally.haha

i miss crapping with everyone duing break
i miss the smell of LT 5
i do not miss the fried charcoal aka char kway tiao
i miss good news cafe
i miss sleepy lectures
i do not miss tests

hahhaahah. okay basically i miss the routine of school and friends. but its okay. moving on is good so long as the connection and contact between u and ur good friends arent broken

so i say thank you to everyone in 36 for making my time in AJ an exceptional one
PW GROUP i <3 yall. haha! REMEMBER THE SPIRIT OF FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE
PPL I HANG OUT WITH DURING BREAK: STAY CRAPPY ALWAYS and MUST keep in contact and dont be late for outings!!! GRRRR
MONDAY LUNCH GANG: <3 heart to heart talks, good food, laughing at jalene and xuan is da bomb

and to miss huang: thanks for your academic guidance. lets hope i can do u proud. and for all the encouragements and compliments you have written for me in the random cards and notes you gave. just to let you know, it made an impact on me :)

alrighty see yall on friday!

o eat sth with the word GAO in it
like dan gao, nian gao, pipagao. so tat ur marks will be GAO GAO (TALL TALL HIGH HIGH) okay v. lame. but hey maybe it'll work ;)

AND LASTLY, let me show u my VERY OWN cubicle!

LOVE
SU XIN

it won't be soon before long

2009-02-28T21:28:00.004+08:00

cryptic title for this entry is maroon 5's album name. i'm not exactly sure what it means really, but if anyone would care to enlighten me, i'll be all ears :)

just thought of it because i was thinking about next fri, when results are supposedly going to be released.

most of you would be worried. please know it's perfectly normal. i was a bundle of nerves myself back then when i was awaiting the release of my results.

well, also remember it can't change a fact now so quit worrying yourselves sick!

it also seems that some of you are secretly worried about disappointing me.

let me say here that i'll be happy if you're happy with your results. maybe you think i have unrealistic expectations no thanks to my 'ra-ra' background, but the truth is i have tempered my expectations somewhat and my only wish is that each and every one of you get into a university course of your choice.

that's all i ask for. really.

but, in life, not everything goes according to the way you want it, and i've walked this earth long enough (yes yes i'm over the hill by now) to accept that.

when life throws you a curveball, it upsets your plans, throws everything into disarray, you cry, there's some guilt, some regret..but that's not the end of the story is it?

you just got to pick yourself up, find yourself a new storyline and make the best of it. if given lemons, make lemonade! :)

i do hope though, you realise by now, or later, why i was pushing you guys so hard - it wasn't about getting the As. i just didn't want any of you to regret anything next friday..because i know that's a v horrible feeling.

so go on out, live your life the way you know you should yeah?

the other thing i want to say is, i've met all my new classes. i've also come to the conclusion that it was a good thing they did not give me a PD class. somehow i feel like i'm cheating on you guys if i start loving my new class! :) i came pretty close to 'falling in love' with this particular class, but as destiny would have it, i'm not even their geog tutor. bah.

so be happy, you're still my favourite class :)

the last thing is, always remember we ARE 20 people who were together for two years. someone we love very much might have left us a little too soon... but we will always keep her with us in our hearts.

i was driving home one day last week feeling so so so tired when i saw the beautiful rainbow. it was a complete one, not those half past six broken ones.

always remember to find joy in the littlest things in life!

see you all soon :)

love,
ms h

this blog needs CPR

2009-01-13T08:19:00.003+08:00

hi everyone

was just wondering if this blog will breathe its last in 2009, after all the title says "20 people who are together for two years"...what happens after two years?

hope you guys are enjoying your holidays. see i told you once the A levels are over, you can do WHATEVER you want and i won't nag. it's been 2 months 2 weeks...wonder what you guys are up to. hard at work earning some dough? are you missing school? usually when people start working, they realise being in school is tons better :)

as for me, well i am missing 36. i'll get a new class this year, so i'm crossing my toes they are as lovely as you guys :p

i'm currently having a good time because the students have not reported yet...guess it'll be payback time when they finally report mid feb.

and how do i pay jalene her $10? don't really want a pig's head hung on the gates of the school with my name written in perhaps yellow paint..hey, that's the college colour so may not look that bad huh.

love,
ms h

<3

2008-12-31T17:14:00.002+08:00

helllllllo.
this blog's so dead it wouldn't move even if i kicked it.
HAHAHAH.

anyway, JALENE!!!!
SEND US THE CLASS PARTY PHOTOS!

okay.
just wanted to share this scale me and my cousin came up with over a supper of tauhuay and youtiaos.
YUMMY.

it's a woman's beauty standard scale, according to our research.
HAHAHAHA
it's quite funny.

1 is the saddest.
10's the happiest.

1-3 would be fat and flat women.
i mean like ouchhh.
(eg your tummy's bigger than your boobs.)
hahahahah.

3-4 would be thin and concave ladies.
hahaha.
it's quite sad to be unable to carry up a dress so i've been told.
like flat, airport runway flat.
like your boyfriend/brother has bigger moobs than yours?

4-6 would be fat and booby women.
hahahaha.
i mean being fat's quite sad but at least there's the boobs so yay!
clevage is one thing several girls might kill to get so i've been told.

6-8 would be thin and slightly booby girls.
like cup aa or a.
hahahah.
it's better than being fat and booby.
(so i've been told.)

and 8-10 are just those women you wanna murder/"copy and paste on yourself" their bodies all the time.
like stick thin girls with cup c.
RAH.

hahahaha.
you could tell we were very very bored.
zzzzzz.

so where do you fit in?

-
p.s. this is a superficial scale that doesn't take into consideration your INNER beauty.
so please dont trust this scale and go murder yourself if you're a 1.
HAHAHAHAH.

cheerios and happy new year (:

2008-12-17T21:13:00.002+08:00

Dinner & Dance + Class Party

2008-11-14T13:41:00.020+08:00

Hi all,

Dinner & Dance (3rd december)!!!
Here are the prices for a single hotel room nearby marriott for those who are interested to either make up/ dress up there before heading down to DnD or/and coming back to marriott, change and go out to play/club, then come back and sleep (or play somemore! like play bridge or smth). If we play till very late after DnD, there would prolly be no mrt back home or cab would be very expensive. You might as well spend the transport money home on a hotel room. Plus, it'd be quite spirit-dampening if you have to go back home straightaway after the event. That's why some of you may consider having a place to serve as 'base camp'. LOL. Okay anyway whether we decide to book anot depends on response okie. If there's too little people sharing then we'd not book. :(

Please Take Note:
-prices here are not inclusive of 7% GST & 10% service charge
-these are total price for one room and not for one person. LOL
-the final bill will be split among those who share the room
-The check-in time is 2.00pm on 3rd dec. Check out is 12.00pm on 4th dec.
-ALL the hotels do NOT allow more than 2 people in a room but they are not very strict with it in a way. so we might have to enter or leave discreetly and of course, (try to) not make too much noise.. :P

Marriott Hotel $430 per night (5 stars)- fully booked so only deluxe room avail
Meritus Mandarin $250 per night (5 stars)
Park Hotel Orchard $238 per night (4 stars)
The Elizabeth $220 per night (4 stars)
Pan Pacific Orchard $285 per night (5 stars) -THERE'S DISCOUNT NOW! IT USED TO BE $355!
Orchard Hotel $305 per night (5 stars)
Grand Hyatt $400 per night (5 stars)- NEAREST to marriott

That's about it. Those who are keen to share a room, please leave a tag or msg me (Jalene) ASAP stating which hotel you wanna stay at. We'll then see the response, calculate the costs and see whether its worth it to book a room.

To classmates not going for DnD, don't have to share the room (unless you wanna stay in it), we'll meet y'all up after DnD for supper/clubbing/walk around or smth! (:

Latest Update!: Shereen's mum can get corporate rates for booking hotel room and marriott is now 280+ per night only! Reply me ASAP if you wanna share! YAY!

Currently these are the people who replied and are interested in sharing (if it's cheap) : Xiqing, Nat, Shereen, Jalene, Zoe

Class Party
We're thinking of a BBQ+mahjong+karaoke+wii party to celebrate the end of the A levels! and of course, our beloved november/december babies birthdayys!!!

Venue: Jalene's house (at siglap road, nearest mrt kembangan/bedok), near ECP! That is, we save money and hassle on having to book a chalet and bbq pit :P -UNLESS of course, i don't really mind if you wanna pay me money. :D
Dates: Anyday between 25november- 9december, except 3dec (DnD)

-Please tag/msg me the dates you are NOT free between the above stated dates.
-Y'all can stayover/shower here if you want. My parents are okay with it.
-There's NTUC at bedok interchange so we could buy our BBQ stuff from there and take a short bus-ride to my house.
-ECP is nearby so we can go blading/cycling the next day if y'all stayover.
-I have a big (and fat)dog but don't be scared, Romeo's very very nice. :D

OKAY, that's all.

p/s: reply me asap! It's ASAP! Pls be nice and reply AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. LOL! especially the hotel rooms thing if you're going for DnD.. because shereen's mum is doing us a favour by helping us and she would need time to book!!

p/p/s: TO MS H!: you're most welcome for our class party too!! (:

p/p/p/s: those who still have lit/science papers, hang in there and all the best! to those who are done with A's, tsk, don't talk to me. hahahaha. kiddin. k ciao

uni may not be such a good idea after all

2008-09-08T14:52:00.003+08:00

hi everyone

wondering if anyone's still reading this blog. if you are, please take note of the format for your geog paper. i thought you guys should be quite familiar with it because i've told you before but a quick check with two 36-ers today confirmed the fact that you are a class of dory fishes.

Section A: 4 DRQs of which the last one will be a combination of two topics. All are compulsory. (50 marks)

Section B: There will be 6 essay questions altogether, 2 from each topic (either, or). Your job is to choose two out of these six and write two logical, organised essays with a wealth of examples. You are not allowed to choose to do both from the same topic.

So that's 4 DRQs and 2 essays to do in 3h. Please ensure you take about 22.5 minutes for each DRQ and 45 minutes for each essay. That will add up to 3h.

Don't stress now! Remember to relax, take deep breaths and calm yourself down. after all, what's the whole big deal about uni? i wouldn't want to have your imagination crushed into dust! and what's the whole point of using jargon when nobody understands a thing? :p

ok? so in your own words, just chill.

love,
ms h

it's cool to be nerdy

here's a movie related to geog, well vaguely, so make sure you watch this AFTER 16 sept.

thank you everyone for turning up last friday, and also for your cards and gifts. all the headache, heartache and earache i've suffered were all worth it :)

hope the revision's going okay. it'll be all over soon, trust me.

PLEASE COMPLETE YOUR TRAVEL DECLARATION AT IVLE 8 ASAP! only one person has done so, as of last friday.

love,
ms h

a long one from the long person

hello 36-ers,

i guess now's the time when all your noses are buried deep in your books/notes so this blog will probably go dead for a while! now that's a good thing so let's keep it that way :) in the meantime, i will try to keep it alive with your generation type of jokes- as you can see with the above attempt (which made it smile too so guess i'm not that old).

just want to say thank you for attending the 2h tutorial on friday. i hadn't realised i'd cannibalised your lunch break - now why didn't you tell me, we could have started later! i won't mind a break myself from my 5h marathon. BUT (so as not to disappoint those amongst you who roll your eyes at my negativity :p), the cynical ms h in me wants to say hunger's a good thing because it keeps you awake.

in other news, here's an example of murphy's law: i've been waiting whole morning for it to rain so i can hang my laundry out after the sky's done with all those rain clouds. by 130pm, the clouds were still gathering but there was just NO rain. so i decided alright, if the weather is so bent on playing a joke on me - i hung out my clothes and ta-dah, it's now raining. the other incarnation of this weather prank is when i fervently apply sunblock to go outdoors and then it'll definitely rain when i'm out, happened 8 out of 10 times (didn't happen for the national day connecting hearts event).

now that it's raining, i can't quite go out for my dose of endorphins either. haven't exercised in a week and it's really affecting my mood. so the next time you feel absolutely grumpy (like me now), make sure you go out there and have a good workout - dancing around madly to your favourite music counts too, as long as you work up a sweat. or perhaps you can offer to vacuum the entire house, which will also earn you some points with your parents.

i'm just done setting the questions for the-thing-that-shall-not-be-named too. are they difficult? well, here's my PC answer: it's only difficult if you don't study :p

and the one thing that i want to say (which i have saved to the last): with us 2 months and 6 days away from the-thing-that-shall-not-be-named, i'm very sure now that i will definitely miss you guys when it's time to say goodbye.

*cue soppy sentimental music....until zowie decides this is not 36's style and cuts in with her funky music*

ok. study hard. i won't get to say this in 3 months' time so let me get my money's worth now. study hard study hard study smart.

love,
ms h

health advisory - epidemic alert!

2008-08-07T07:53:00.003+08:00

hi everyone

please drink more water, include fruits and veggies in your diet and maybe it's time to start popping those vitamic C pills! take your fruits half an hour before food or an hour after food for maximum absorption (no kidding). adequate rest (at least 6-7hours) is recommended. burning the midnight oil now only to fall ill later is unwise.

the zowie virus is on the loose so do take the necessary precautions against this powerful bug.

number of casualties so far: 4 absentees today [while yesterday's absentee waved goodbye to his perfect attendance record :)]

2008-07-25T10:04:00.004+08:00

hello you all,

plenty of angst in the last entry and after an airtime of a week, i've decided to take it down to reduce any possible further collateral damage which might/might not occur. you never know who's reading this blog and despite the censorship, i'm still uncomfortable with the airing of your views on such a public channel.

i would have addressed this issue again in class during tutorial today. but the main takeaway i hope you guys will have is: there will always be some factors which will remain out of your control. the best thing you can do about this is to learn how to cope in a positive way. ie. it doesn't help to rage because that is only counter-productive and it won't change anything.

no matter how difficult it is, if you feel the other person is just being unreasonable, let his/her hurtful words slide off you. if it's a misunderstanding, wait for a better moment to clarify things. if you must feel something, let it be sympathy for the person, instead of anger.

remember, you can choose to be the egg, carrot or coffee bean. what do you want to be?

going off for class so i shall stop nagging (for now).

love,
ms h

ps/ the previous post is saved as draft because i do not have the authority to completely delete a work that is not mine :[ if anyone wishes to read, they'll have to log in. let's keep this within 36 yeah.

i wonder will you still see cornflakes the same after this.

and my favourite game is still hangman.

all that studying for...?

2008-07-17T11:20:00.003+08:00

just a post so that zowie's horrible post won't be the first thing you read. you've been warned - read her post only if for some reason, you wish to throw up.

so it's 3 months 1 week and 6 days to the-thing-which-should-not-be-mentioned. hope you guys are at full steam ahead preparing for the showdown. at some points when you feel desperation, frustration and consternation, do tell yourselves it'll all be over before you know it.

keep the goal in mind. think about where you want to be this time next year and what you hope to be doing (of course the guys will have not much choice in this...but their fate will unfold two years later instead)

it's all systems go go go!

love,

ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG

2008-07-14T19:32:00.004+08:00

zomg zomg zomg.
i saw this online while blog hopping.
(no i do NOT read sick blogs.)

but just to prepare yourself mentally,
there are GRAPHIC IMAGES WHICH ARE GOING TO BE KINDOF REVOLTING.
(at least to me.)

IT IS ABOUT CANNIBALISM.
IT IS ABOUT CANNIBALISM.
IT IS ABOUT CANNIBALISM.

AND IT IS ALL TRUE STORIES.
AH.
SO STEEL YOURSELF AND IF YOU DONT WANNA READ, IT IS TOTALLY FINEEE.
BUT IT IS SUPER ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG INTERESTINGLY GROSS AND SADISTIC.
and for all you know, it might be good gp material.
(inserts smirking face.)

(if you still continue reading, you are NOT to curse me cause i warned you that it was ZOMGG.)

NUMBER ONE:

Shocking news circulated in China.
A town in Canton is now on trend taking baby herbal soup to increase health and sexual performance/stamina.

The cost in China currency = approx $ 4000
A factory manager was interviewed and he testified that it is effective because he is a frequent customer.

It is a delicacy whereby expensive herbs are added to boil the baby with chicken meat for 8 hours boiling/steaming.
He pointed to his second wife next to him, who is 19 (he is 62), and testified that they have sex everyday.

After waiting for a couple of weeks he took this reporter to the restaurant when he was informed by restaurant Manager that the spare rib soup (local code for baby soup) was now available.

This time it was a couple who have 2 daughters and this 3rd one was confirmed to be a daughter again.
So the couple aborted the baby which was 5 months old.

Those babies close to be born and die naturally costs 2000 in China currency.
Those aborted ones cost a few hundreds in China Currency.

Those couples who did not want to sell dead babies, placentas can be accepted also for couple of hundreds.

The reporter made comments that are these the problems that arise from Chinese taking too much attention in health, or is the backfire when China introduced one child in a family policy.
(since majority prefers to have male babies and those poorer families need ended up selling their female babies.)

I SUDDENLY REALIZED THAT THERE'S A LINK TO GEOG.
population policies limitations.
(can you imagine the Cambridge marker's face when she/he reads, limitations of china's one child policy. people abort their female unborn babies and sell them to restaurants which cook them and serve it to customers who'll eat them.)
ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG.

i only put 2 photos because i think any more would just make your stomach turn and twist and you will puke.
eeew.

okay this is totally random
but can you imagine that i'm a sports player or something and to improve my stamina or something, i go drink BABY SOUP????
THE LENGHTS PEOPLE GO TO SEEK "HEALTH"

NUMBER 2:

[Excerpt from In the Fog, Sagawa’s post-cannibal best-selling account of his murder of fellow Dutch student Renée Hartevelt in Paris]

11th JUNE, 1981 - ” I am amazed.
She’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.
Tall, blonde, with pure white skin, she astonishes me with her grace.

I invited her to my home for a Japanese dinner. She accepts.
After the meal I asked her to read my favorite German Expressionist poem.

As she reads i can’t keep my eyes off her.

After she leaves I can still smell her body on the bed sheet where she sat reading the poem. I lick the chopsticks and dishes she used.

I can taste her lips. My passion is so great.
I want to eat her.
If I do she will be mine forever.
There is no escape from this desire.

I arrange for her to read the poem for me once more. I lie to her.
I tell her I want to record the poem on tape for my Japanese teacher.

She believes. I prepare everything. The cassette recorder for the poem,
the rifle for the sacrifice.

She arrives on time. After drinking tea and whisky, she speaks.
She smiles at me.

But I know inside that I’m the strangest one of all. Her yellow sleeveless top shows off her beautiful white arms. I can smell her body.

I turn on the recorder. She starts to read . She speaks in perfect German.
I reach for the rifle hidden beside the chest of drawers.

I stand slowly and aim the riffle at the back of her head. I cannot stop myself.

There is a loud sound and her body falls from the chair onto the floor.
It is like she is watching me.

I see her cheeks, her eyes, her nose and mouth, the blood pouring from her head. I try to talk to her, but she no longer answers.

There is blood all over the floor. I try to wipe it up, but I realize I cannot stop the flow of blood from her head.

It is very quiet here. There is only the silence of death.

I start to take off her clothes. It is hard to take the clothes off a dead body.

Finally it is done. Her beautiful white body is before me.

I’ve waited so long this day and now it is here.

I touch her ass. It is so very smooth.

I wonder where I should bite first. I decide to bite the top of her butt.

My nose is covered with her cold white skin. I try to beat down hard, but I can’t.

I suddenly have a horrible headache. I get a knife from the kitchen and stab it deeply into her skin.

Suddenly a lot of sallow fat oozes from the wound.

It reminds me of Indian corn. It continues to ooze. It is strange.

Finally I find the red meat under the sallow fat. I scoop it out and put it in my mouth.

I chew. It has no smell and no taste. It melts in my mouth like a perfect piece of tuna. I look in her eyes and say: “You are delicious.”

(OKAY I KNOW I AM INTERUPPTING BUT EWWWWW. NOW WE KNOW HOW HUMAN MEAT TASTES LIKE.)

I cut her body and lift the meat to my mouth again and again.
Then I take a photograph of her white corpse with its deep wounds.

I have sex with her body.
When I hug her she lets out a breath.
I’m frightened, she seems alive.

I kiss her and tell her I love her.

Then I drag her body to the bathroom. By now I am exhausted, but I cut into her hip and put the meat in a roasting pan.

After it is cooked I sit at the table using her underwear as a napkin.
They still smell of her body.

Then I turn on the tape of her reading the German poem and eat.

There is not enough taste. I use some salt and some mustard and it is delicious, very high quality meat. Then I go back to the bathroom and cut off her breast

and bake it. It swells while it cooks. I serve the breast on the table
and eat it with a fork and knife. It isn’t very good. Too greasy.

I try to cut into another part of her body. Her thighs were wonderful.
Finally she is in my stomach. Finally she is in my stomach.

Finally
she is mine. It is the best dinner I’ve ever had.

Afterwards I sleep with her.

Next morning she is still here. She doesn’t smell bad. Today I must finish cutting up her body.I have to put it into suitcases and sink it in the lake.

It will be her grave.

I touch the cold body again and I wonder where I should start.
I start to cut off all the meat before amputating the limbs.

While I cut her calf I suddenly want to taste it.
I see the beautiful red meat beneath the fat.

I grasp her knee and her ankle, and tear it with my teeth.
It is tender. I slowly chew and savor it.

After eating most of the calf I look at myself in the mirror.
There is grease all over my face. And then I start to eat at random.

I bite her little toe. It still smell of her feet.
I stab the knife into her arch and see the red meat deep inside.

I thrust my fingers inside and dig out the meat and put it in my mouth.

It tastes okay. Then I stab the knife into her armpit.

Ever since I saw it under her yellow sleeveless top I wondered how it
would taste this good. The wonderful taste cheers me up and I devour her underarm up to the elbow.

Finally I cut off her private parts. When I touch the pubic hair it has a
very bad smell. I bite her clit, but it won’t come off, it just stretches.
So I throw it in the frying pan and pop it in my mouth.

I chew very carefully and swallow it. It is so sweet.

After I swallow it, I feel her in my body and get hot.
I turn the body over and open her buttocks, revealing her anus.

I scoop it out with my knife and try to put it in my mouth.
It smells too much. I put it in the frying pan and throw it in my mouth.

It still smells. I spit it out. I go into the next room.
It smell of fat, like I’ve been frying a chicken.

It’s been twenty-four hours now. Some huge flies hover and buzz in the bathroom. I try to chase them away, but they came back.

They swarm on her face. They seem to tell me that I’ve lost her forever.
It is no longer her. Where is she? She’s gone far away.

I’ve broken her. Like a child who breaks his toy. I try to use an electric knife to cut her body. It doesn’t work. It just makes a loud sound.

I use a hatchet. I strike several times. It’s hard work. I strike her thigh. Her body jumps up. If she could feel, it would have hurt.

Finally the thigh separates from her body. I bite it again,
like I would bite a chicken leg. Then I cut off her arms.

It is even harder than the thigh. I use the electric knife again.
It makes a shrill sound, like the sound of her shrill voice.

It works this time. Her hand still wears a ring and a bracelet.
When I see her long fingers I am driven by another impulse.

I use her hand to masturbate. Her long fingers excite me.

When I’m finished I try to bite her finger. I can’t. I’m disappointed.
I put her hands into the plastic bag along with her legs.

And then I see her face. It is still quiet. She has a small nose and a sweet lower lip. When she was alive I wanted to bite them.

Now I can satisfy that desire. It’s so easy to bite off her nose.
As I chew the cartilage I can hear the noise.

I use a knife to cut off more of the cartilage and put it in my mouth.
It really doesn’t taste very good.

I scoop out her lower lip with my knife and put it in my mouth. It has hard skin. I decide to eat it later when I can fry it.

So I put it in the refrigerator.

I want her tongue. I can’t open her lower jaw, but I can reach in between her teeth. Finally it comes out. I cut it off and put it in my mouth.

It’s hard to chew. I see my face in the mirror. Her tongue entwined with my tongue. I try to close my mouth, but her tongue slips out.

Finally I cut the skin off the tongue and taste the meat.

I try to eat her eyes. It’s hard for me to stab into them, though it is the easiest part of her face. I can tears coming from them.

It frightens me. Her eyes are all that is left of her face.
It is nearly a skull.

I decide to take out her stomach. When I stab under her navel a little fat appears and then I can see the red meat under the fat.

I slice a piece of the red meat and put it on a plate. Then I stab into the stomach. The internal organs appear.

There is a great length of rolled tubes and I find a gray bag at the end of the tubes. It must be the bladder. There is a strong smell as soon as I pick it up. I thrust my hand into her body cavity.

There is another bag. It must be her womb. If she had lived she would have had a baby in this womb. The thought depresses me for a moment.

I pull out the intestines. My hands sting from the digestive juices.
At last I have to cut off her head.

It is the most difficult thing I have to do. I cut off the meat on her neck until I can see bone, then I cut again. She still wears her necklace.

I try to use the electric knife, but it doesn’t work very well.
It just makes its shrill sound.

So I use the hatchet. I imagine myself on the guillotine.
It is surprisingly easy to cut through.

With the head gone her body is now only flesh.
When I grab the hair and hang up the head, I realize I am a cannibal.

(wow, it took him SOME TIME EH??)

I put the head in a plastic bag. I separate the body and put it into two plastic bags. They are heavy. It is hard to put them into the suitcases.

I am finished. It is midnight. I call a taxi.

I am back home. I turn the TV and open the refrigerator.
I put the dishes on the glass table. I recognize each pieces of meat.

This is part of her hip and this is part of her thigh.
I fry them on the stove. I set the table.

There is mustard, salt, pepper and sauce. I put her underwear beside the dish.

I sniff it and look at a nude woman in a magazine.

I try to remember which part of her is in my mouth, but it is difficult to connect the meat with a body. It just seems like a piece of meat.

I continue to eat her body until I am caught. Each day the meat becomes more tender, each day the taste is more sweet and delicious. ”

THE Murderer:

THE AFTERMATH - Sagawa walks free

Sagawa openly confessed to what he had done, but a judge ruled that he was not mentally fit to stand trial.

Sagawa was sent to the Paul Guirald Asylum for an undetermined period of time.

Akira Sagawa, his father, helped workout a deal,
and he was transferred to a hospital in Japan not long after.

He was soon judged fit enough to be sent to prison,
where he stayed for only 15 months before being paroled.

He was free to go wherever he pleased,
and was even granted a passport to go to Germany.

Sagawa now lives in Tokyo and is a minor celebrity in Japan.
He is often invited as a guest speaker and commentator.

He also writes restaurant reviews and in 1992 he appeared in Hisayasu Sato’s film Sisenjiyou no Aria (The Bedroom) as a sadosexual voyeur.

He admits to still having fantasies about cannibalism,
but says he never wants to realize them again.

Besides books about the murder he committed,
Sagawa wrote a commentary book Shonen A in 1997 on the Kobe Children’s Serial Murder of 1997, when a 14-year-old called “Boy A” (”Shonen A”) killed and decapitated a child.

His story inspired the 1981 Stranglers song “La Folie” and the 1983 Rolling Stones song “Too Much Blood”.

He tells people that he is completely safe, and has no desire at all to repeat what he did.
As he simply puts it, he had a fantasy, acted on it,

and that’s that. Apart from giving interviews to the Media,
he likes to paint, and do sculptures.

He has even managed to persuade women to pose nude for these.

He now says he has fantasies of being eaten by a western woman, and believes it is the only thing that can save him.

His current picture.

okay, i don't dare to put pictures of the eaten woman here.
some people might really vomit or something.
cause it's really SUPER GRAPHIC.
like erm...the face minus nose and lips etc.
body minus one boob, gashes across.
so.yes.

if you are that sadistically interested, you can ask me for the link ((:

anyway, the japanese guy totally LOOKS LIKE A NORMAL GUY RIGHT?????
ZOMG.
i totally cannot tell he's into cannibalism.
YUKS.

plus, with all the ZOMG ZOMG things he did, i totally cannot cannot believe that he's a free man now.
(okay paroled but STILLLLLL)
AND I DIDN'T CHANGE ONE WORD OF THE THE EXCERPTS ABOVE.
GO GOOGLE IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME.

and how freaky is that?
he sounded so nonchalent!
"it's just realising his fantasy."

LIKE HELLO?
normal people like me,
have very normal fantasies like
NO SCHOOL AT ALL EVERYDAY and COOKING AND BAKING AND EXPERIMENTING NON-STOP WITH FOOD.
(hurr. i'm never going to be able to act on it.)

NOT KILL FOREIGN WOMEN AND EAT THEIR BODY PARTS?????

OKAY, i'm still very disturbed.
but i just wanted to share with you all.
heehee, about weird asian people.
don't you feel depressed being classified as the same category as these people.
ahwell.

anyway, the intention of this very wordy blog post,
is just to warn you people out there of cannibalism (:
even from people who look the most harmless.
HAHAHAH.

to end on a comforting note,
if you piss me off when i'm hungry, i just might bite you and turn into some full fledged cannibal.
RAHHHH.

HAHAHAHAH.

hi everyone

it's been a long time. it seems the only thing that's alive on this blog is unfortunately, the countdown timer ticking away :) 4 months and 6 days!

by the time you read this, most of your battles would have been over (for now!). and maybe most of you will resemble Po in the dark eye rings aspect?

remember i'm always nagging about how i did not watch a single movie in my two years of college education? and how i'm always giving off disapproving vibes when you rave about a movie you caught? well i'm going to change my mind for once, IF you haven't already watched the kung fu panda, i recommend you do.

aside from the fact that it's downright hilarious, i liked the lesson/moral of the story behind it. there really is no secret to success. it's all in the mind...and of course the never-say-die, i-just-want-to-try-my-best attitude helps.

so go watch it if you haven't, perhaps as a little reward for surviving your common tests :)

love,

ms h

ps/ i'm so excited. cos the geog paper's tmr!

hi everyone,

have fun identifying the processes (input, flows, outputs and storages) but please do not be too excited about the irrelevant ones (e.g. droplet suntanning on the island or droplet sailing..)

also, do remember to try sketching the cross section of the drainage basin with the annotations of the processes, as shown during today's tutorial!

I was just surfing random stuff and I realised how smart human beings (astronomers especially) are. Check this out:

Moons on different planets:

Mars: Phobos, Deimos

Jupiter: Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto

Saturn: Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Dione, Rhea, Titan, Iapetus

Uranus: Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, Oberon

Neptune: Triton

Earth: Moon

-.-" wow...they were able to think up of names for every moon that did not belong to Earth (they even have names for unknown orbiting objects!)...and what name did they give our own moon? Moon! That's like calling the budget terminal Budget Terminal!

HAHA....

Urban Concepts...when applied to AJ Track & Field meet 08

(Disclaimer: This post is not intended to insult anyone, or anything, and is purely for the sake of laughter..if it can cos any...)

Assuming the PE dept. is the CBD, we can see the Bid Rent Theory at work in the picture below. The closer to the CBD, the higher the rent. The higher the rent, the taller the structure (usually). The further away, the shorter the structures. (In case you dun noe wat im talking abt, look at the way ppl are arranged in the pics.)

In LDCs, poorer workers who once lived in rural areas move to the city centre in view of better prospects. However, they are too poor to afford living close to the CBD. This causes the rise of squatter settlements.

In DCs however, the process of suburbanisation causes the emergence of secondary land value peaks, where rents once again rise. This means that structures get taller again.

(and no, as must as it looks like it, she's not training to be the next batman...like below)

and to other matters, there's a new initiative called the GREY RIBBON PROJECT...protect the cheetahs...

happy earth day

2008-04-22T15:26:00.003+08:00

hi everyone,

it's Earth Day today so do think about what are some things you can do to save the environment from further degradation. while you may think individual actions are insignificant, we all need to start somewhere and start small. it may not seem like you are reducing carbon dioxide emissions through your little actions but trust me, at the very most, your conscience is clear! :) you could even influence the people around you to be that little bit more conscious about their actions.

remember, every bit counts! so save the trees! read your geog notes faithfully so they wouldn't have to be sacrificed in vain! use both sides of your paper! take notes during lecture and use up every bit of space on your lecture notes! :)

start today!

love,

possible ideas for SGC writing

2008-04-17T23:08:00.003+08:00

hello everyone,

we'll be starting our SGC writing exercises during class civics soon and here's where i get my inspiration from:

:::::::::::::

Actual Quotes from Federal employees' performance evaluations:  

"Since my last report, he has reached rock bottom and has started to dig."  

"His men would follow him anywhere, but only out of morbid curiosity."  

"Works well when under constant supervision and when cornered like a rat in a trap."  

"This young lady has delusions of adequacy."  

"She sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve them."  

"This employee should go far - and the sooner he starts, the better."  

"This employee is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot."   

Actual Quotes from military Officer Efficiency Reports (OERs):  

"Not the sharpest knife in the drawer."  

"Got a full 6-pack, but lacks the plastic thingy to hold it all together."  

"A gross ignoramus -- 144 times worse than an ordinary ignoramus."  

"A photographic memory, but with the lens cover glued on."  

"A prime candidate for natural de-selection."  

"One-celled organisms outscore him in IQ tests."  

"Fell out of the family tree."  

"Gates are down, the lights are flashing, but the train isn't coming."  

"Has two brains; one is lost and the other is out looking for it."  

"He's so dense, light bends around him."  

"If you gave him a penny for his thoughts, you'd get change."  

"If you stand close enough to him, you can hear the ocean."  

"It's hard to believe that he beat out 1,000,000 other sperm."  

"Some drink from the fountain of knowledge; he only gargled."  

"Wheel is turning, but the hamster is dead."

hope everyone had a blast at the ORLJ yesterday, i heard some decent feedback about your professionalism as facilitators. well done! i'm proud of you guys. may it be a truly fruitful, enriching, fulfilling, educational, fun, hot, amazing... (and all other PC or not answers) experience for everyone.

just to let you guys know, i am only finding out your PW results at 10am, just like yourselves. or maybe even later as i'll be trapped at the reading room for training :(

i feel like throwing up soon because my heart is beating so fast..this is far worse than running 10k. wonder what will happen next March when your biggie results are out.

so to distract myself, i'm going to post some (embarrassing) peektures of the fashion design which you guys won! great job! (tho i was not v pleased with your excitedly distributing the prizes before geog lect)

someone tell me what suxin is trying to be. the superhero emcee? and xiqing? 0.5 kawaii pose?

the 100% kawaii pose (*secretly shudders*)

model and designer takes turn to smile..

ok that's all for now. need to get into some random yoga pose to feel Zen or my heart will just leap right out.

greetings from SGH ward 78 room 7(:

2008-04-03T16:38:00.003+08:00

hmm finally managed to get my laptop in, but the wireless connection here isn't fantastic so.. yes, i get kicked out every few minutes or something. not cool.

anyway,hmm yea looks like this week is finally coming to an end huh, by the time i'm discharged (staurday!) i would have been in and out of hospital for about one and a half months..whoa or what. Anyway yesterday's chemo experience was salvaged by the one and only best television series: GREY'S ANATOMY! hee. it was quite funny la, while the nurse was setting up the machine thingy, i was setting up my laptop and preparing my 'so called' battle front with snacks and snapple pink lemonade (lastest weird craving) on one side, the mags and books.i told the nurse to tell me when she pressed the start button so i could press start together with her. so yea timing was prefect (well almost, the machine had a few hiccups here and there) and for the whole chemo duration i watched 3 episodes of grey's(((((: BUT THEN. GUESS WHAT

after the whole 3 hours i thought it was over but NOoooo... the nurse brought in this new set of drugs... so basically now i'm stuck with a 'gameboy' sized machine with a thin tube pumping in this orange coloured drug into my chest for... (get this) 72 hours.uh huh. 3 days. 72 hours, 3 days. i wonder which one sounds nicer. why 72 hours? it's suppose to be less harsh for the body because technically chemo drugs are posion, on the machine label it actually says tonxins,this slow process wont scare/shock the body so much unless it was given say about 3 hours.so hopfully i wont feel so sicky after eveything, if not doctor poon owes me spaghetti. we made a bet. he said if i throw up he'll buy me spaghetti from sheraton towers. kind of a tough situation huh... should i throw up?

i hope that entertained you for a bit(:

89th post!

2008-04-01T22:11:00.003+08:00

hi everyone

i logged in to see that we have an auspicious 88 posts in the blog! but too bad, i just had to ruin the good luck. i'm sure you'll forgive me because i chose four leaf clovers as your countdown timer design :)

in other news (i'm serious, i watched this on the news programme), yingxuan is not the only joker who takes today very seriously. ben and jerry's at vivo city pulled a fast one on customers by telling them they have discontinued ALL flavours and only vanilla is available!

imagine the horror! there was a hidden camera to log the customers' reactions and it was disbelief all around.

hilarious right? :)

well i'm glad to see some of you had fun today, being flighty air parcels or otherwise.

let's see, what naggy reminder shall i leave as my parting shot today? want to guess?

REVISE YOUR INSTABILITY/LAPSE RATES LECTURE NOW! before what you learnt swims out of your dory fishie heads.

Jokes to chill with:

A little kid's in school, taking a true-false test and he's flipping a coin. At the end of the test he's flipping the coin again. The teacher says, "What are you doing?" He says, "Checking my answers."

"If there are any idiots in the room, will they please stand up" said the sarcastic teacher. After a long silence, one freshman rose to his feet.
"Now then mister, why do you consider yourself an idiot?" enquired the teacher with a sneer.
"Well, actually I don't," said the student, "but I hate to see you standing up there all by yourself."

Known to most as Lilo and Stitch...little do we know that Lilo has a twin named Kilo who also has a ET pet, named B****

B**** is supposedly a cute little blue alien with four arms, two legs and antennae who is deceptively strong, fast, intelligent, destructive and indestructible....although most who have seen this mysterious creature would say otherwise....

B**** enjoys sleeping, blasting music from its interstellar communication device (handphone in human lang.), grinning widely, and sleeping...again...

Barmal

Barmal N. Dinosaur (or simply just Barmal) is a two hundred million year old purple dinosaur, who comes to life through a child's imagination.

He is best known for his friendly, optimistic (and somtimes even *coughsickcough*) personality and his positive attitude. His theme song is the "Barmal Theme Song" (or "Barmal Is A Dinosaur" to the tune of "Yankee Doodle").

His other well known song is "I Hate You," which has been parodied by many people and the tune is sung slowly to "This Old Man". Barmal likes most kinds of food, but his favorite is char siew rice (if i'm not wrong) and ice chocolate, presumably with chicken mayo sandwich, which is his favourite bread.

According to Barmal's Campfire Sing-Along, veggies are also a favorite of his. (this i'm not sure...)

pokemon for sale. trained by chen yingxuan

2008-03-27T17:49:00.005+08:00

PIKACHU
A Pikachu is a ground-dwelling rodent notable for its Electric abilities. Pikachu have short, yellow fur with brown stripes on its back, black-tipped ears, along with an unusually shaped tail, resembling a lightning bolt.
This specially trained Pikachu takes after its trainer, Chen Yingxuan, as you can see from the shot taken above.
it has a slightly constipated look and will appear to have no eyes when it smiles.

Pikachu are known to have acute senses of hearing, thanks to its large ears. Most domestic Pikachu are very intelligent, understanding and interpreting human speech at levels far surpassing those of any pet dog. it also knows how to speak Hokkien and initiates fight with people. though very intelligent, its only form of talking is pi, pika or pikachu.

for a real life demo, try finding yingxuan in pokeland.

Exclusive to the Pikachu's subspecies is the ability to release electric discharges of varying intensity, at will, through electric sacs in its cheeks. it mostly happens when it is trying to clear its bowels. >.<

POKEMON FOR SALE.
TRAINED ESPECIALLY BY CHEN YINGXUAN.

renowened for her lame and NOT so funny jokes, chen yingxuan has roamed from town to town in pokeland, fighting pokemons with her specially trained pikachu and her leotard fighting costume. unfortunately, at time of post, chen yingxuan was not available for us to provide a photo of her in her fighting leotard suit.

hi everyone

like i haven't been naggy enough, just to reiterate what you should take away with you after today's mass civics: consistent work is the key. last minute studying for A levels will not translate into quality grades!

so if you want your As and Bs, what are you waiting for? :) or in your generation, (:

happy easter weekend!

2008-03-22T11:42:00.002+08:00

hello everyone,

while Easter may be a religious celebration, everyone can celebrate it because it signifies a new beginning, a rebirth and a resurrection of some GOOD part of yourself that has gone away and has returned!

the GOOD part i am referring to is your mugger self during the O levels. resurrect the nerds in all of you because the A levels will be upon us, soon!

thank you all who turned up to support Jalene for the dance performance at VCH. thought it was so funny that you all decided to get her a flower each and thus overwhelming her w all the love.

the other funny things that happened: no.1 i was stalked! no.2 there are some country bumpkins amongst us who were gawping at the 'bright lights' effect of our CBD! haha.

lastly, Jalene and I visited Jac yesterday and she's doing great. she loves the 'little black book of jokes' v much and the dvd classics as well :) btw, i agree with your choice of Lady Cat because i am truly _nc__nt when compared to you saplings.

i loved the book of jokes too. was reading it before dance started and shared some of the funnies with Ms S and she also said you guys are 'so wacky and sweet' (cue for ms h to roll her eyes).

keep the jokes coming here as well! laughter is the best medicine and the secret to healthy lives.

and i wouldn't be me if i didn't say this: pls do TRY to get some studying done this weekend.

love,
ms h

Sad love songs

(Celine Dion's Because You Love Me)

You were my strength when I was weak (i.e. he's weak)
You were my voice when I couldn't speak (i.e. he can't speak)
You were my eyes when I couldn't see (i.e. he can't see)

(Richard Marx & Donna Lewis' At the Beginning)

I'll be there
When the world stops turning (i.e. i'll never be there)
I'll be there
When the storm is through (i.e. i'll be there after the trouble's over)
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you (i.e. you'll never move forward)

so you want to be a lawyer...

morning?

WITNESS: By death.

ATTORNEY: And by whose death was it terminated?

WITNESS: Now whose death do you suppose terminated it?

______________________________________

ATTORNEY: Can you describe the individual?

WITNESS: He was about medium height and had a beard.

ATTORNEY: Was this a male or a female?

WITNESS: Guess.

_____________________________________

ATTORNEY: Is your appearance here this morning pursuant to a deposition

WITNESS: No, this is how I dress when I go to work.

ATTORNEY: I see, but could the patient have still been alive,
nevertheless?

WITNESS: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and
practicing law.

2008-03-10T12:49:00.002+08:00

this is a joke i found while clearing my inbox. haha. maybe u would have read it. but i find it real funny. enjoy!

In the hospital the relatives gathered in the waiting room, wheretheir family member lay gravely ill Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and somber.

"I'm afraid I'm the bearer of bad news," he said as he surveyed the worried faces. "The only hope left for your loved one at this time is a braintransplant. It's an experimental procedure, very risky but it is theonly hope. Insurance will cover the procedure, but you will have to pay for the brain yourselves...

The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news. After a greatlength of time, someone asked, "Well, how much does a brain cost? The doctor quickly responded, "$5,000 for a male brain, and $200 for afemale brain. The moment turned awkward. Men in the room tried not to smile, avoidingeye contact with the women, but some actually smirked. A man unable to control his curiosity, blurted out the questioneveryone wanted to ask "Why is the male brain so much more? The doctor smiled at the childish innocence and explained to the entire group,

"It's just standard pricing procedure. We have to mark downthe price of the female brains, because they've actually been used."

HELLO IT'S MOVIE REVIEW TIMEEEE! (((:

reviewing FOUR great and <3ly movies this time!

1. the leap years.
2. juno
3. P.s. I love you
4. Sweeney todd

the youtube video's i'm loading will be the trailers and go watch it! (((:

NUMBER ONEEE:
i went to watch the leap years with joanne today ((:

it's a really lovely movie and you should go watch it!
touching and nice (:

official website:
http://www.mediacorpraintree.com/TLY/

lovely soundtrack wraps up the entire movie nicely.
and the storyline, although clique is sweet and touching.

and the quotes were (:
some quotes:

it's not in the stars to hold our destiny
But in ourselves. - William Shakespeare

A person often meets his destiny
on the road he took to avoid it. - Jean de la Fontaine

Coincidence is God's way of
remaining anonymous. - Albert Einstein

In three words, I can sum up
Everything I've learnt about life: It goes on. - Robert Feast

If you are not too long,
I will wait for you all my life. - Oscar Wilde

prepare loads of tissues for this one and you'll be in a dreamy mood the whole dayyy after watching it!
(:

NUMBER TWOOOO:

I watched this some time back and it's a great movie!
it offers alot of insight on life and true love what not.

it talks about premarital sex and the issues about true love and whatnot,
but just that this time, it comes from a teenager's pov! ((:

and a very very good reason why you should watch it is it's GOOD SOUNDTRACK.
HAHAHA.

the soundtrack is really <3<3

i <3 anyone else but you and all i need is you and i'm sticking with you personally.
ask me if you want me to send to you! ((:

the trailer:

go youtube and find the links etc.
haha.

ask me secretly for the link to watch it online for FREEEE.
((((:

NUMBER THREEEEE:
ahhhhh.
i watched this with my girlfriends from sc during val's day.

it was a feel good movie!
me and my friend (kaeting) cried like no tomorrow and we used up like few packs of tissues between us.

although the chemistry between hilary swank and the cute cute irish guy, mr whatishisname (oh) Gerard Butler, is missing abit here and there.
but his actions and the storyline rocked like crap.

favorite quote:

" what if this is it jerry? what if this is all life has to offer?"
- hilary swank.

it's so sweet and all you wish for after this movie is to migrate to ireland and fall headfirst into some romance with some guitar strumming, leather jacket wearing guy/

and the scenary in ireland made up for everything.
so country like, i loveee.

random:
i'm going to retire and migrate to ireland/greece to live.
and i'll draw flowers or shorelines everyday.

(((:

gosh.
AND the songs was so ((((: too!

but i like the songs:
- rewind by paulo nutini
- love you till the end by the pouges
- P.S. i love you by nellie mckay
- same mistake by james blunt

that's about it!

you should totally watch this man.
it's DA BOMB.

(ask me for the movie link too.)

trailer:

NUMBER FOURRRR:

THIS IS DA BOMB.
although everyone's been telling me it's )): and it's too gory/boring stupido.
it's good!
if not it wouldn't have won the oscars for best artistic direction sense.

the music is love and the dramatic significance of the whole movie was breathtaking.

it's so good and sad and gory/cool that it leaves you haunted when you finish watching it! (((:

trailer:

and the soundtrack is love.
i like it when he kills everyone and singing of his <3 for his daughter.
the song's johana, go listen!

it's great!

((((:

okay, end of review session.
had a great and LOVELY TIME.

hope you'll go check these out during march hols and
dont worry and be merry!

((((((((: zowie

Hug my flower with your eyes

2008-03-04T23:07:00.004+08:00

Hello hello, it's the very cool girl here. Yes you guessed it, it's The Other Miss Huang! :)

Okay anyway, all you go listen to the IT song (to me at least hahaha)
Uh.. It's cool to the max.

Hahaha

Kimya Dawson- Tree Hugger
(Juno ost)

The flower said, "I wish I was a tree,"
The tree said, "I wish I could be
A different kind of tree,
The cat wished that it was a bee,

The turtle wished that it could fly
Really high into the sky,
Over rooftops and then dive
Deep into the sea.

And in the sea there is a fish,
A fish that has a secret wish,
A wish to be a big cactus
With a pink flower on it.

And in the sea there is a fish,
A fish that has a secret wish,
A wish to be a big cactus
With a pink flower on it.

And the flower
Would be its offering
Of love to the desert.
And the desert,
So dry and lonely,
That the creatures all
Appreciate the effort.

(french/language that you and i don't understand)

And the rattlesnake said,
"I wish I had hands soI could hug you like a man."
And then the cactus said,
"Don't you understand,
My skin is covered with sharp spikes
That'll stab you like a thousand knives.
A hug would be nice,
But hug my flower with your eyes."

The flower said, "I wish I was a tree,"
The tree said, "I wish I could be
A different kind of tree,
The cat wished that it was a bee,

The turtle wished that it could fly
Really high into the sky,
Over rooftops and then dive
Deep into the sea.

And in the sea there is a fish,
A fish that has a secret wish,
A wish to be a big cactus
With a pink flower on it.

And in the sea there is a fish,
A fish that has a secret wish,
A wish to be a big cactus
With a pink flower on it.
And the flower
Would be its offering
Of love to the desert.

And the desert,
So dry and lonely,
That the creatures all
Appreciate the effort.

HAHAHAHA. Okay, enjoy the song while er, doing the lovely drought essay

a twisted leap

2008-02-29T22:20:00.002+08:00

hello peeps

it's me again. so borrrring.

just want to say i had fun at IHDC! although judging was rather stressful, because as you know, i am terrible at multitasking. and sometimes when the play had ended, i'll turn to my fellow two judges and go, "huh? that's it?" wish it could go on longer...

i'm also happy to see some of you stayed back to show your support for the Stajers in our class.

leap year day. 29th feb. only comes by every 4 years. so where will you be in 4 years' time?

hopefully still in contact with each other. i think 36 is quite a nice class - nice to each other, but less so to the teachers (ok this is definitely changing so keep it up). yup i mean it's great to see most of you get along with most of you.

A level results definitely out next week. i'm just thinking, this time next year, how would i be feeling? how would YOU be feeling?

let's work hard together, less than ten months left now! after which, you can play until you collapse and i won't say anything, really.

take care everyone. enjoy your weekend.

love,
ms h
ps/ urban lect 2 notes have just been uploaded. pls print a copy for yourself :)

What is the trend you notice in this blog? [2m]

2008-02-26T21:56:00.003+08:00

hi people

i noticed a pattern. each time after i post an entry, this blog goes dead. 4 marks for a well-elaborated explanation behind this trend...any takers?

ANYWAY, thank you for the applause at the end of my amateurish movie today. although it was not spontaneous (i heard someone from the amigos gang saying "eh clap leh"), i take it that you like the clip i managed to cobble together. it was my very first attempt so it did cause me some frustration esp when i had to keep referring to the iMovie Help file.

you might have noticed that some 36-ers had more screen time. it was in no way intentional. i tried to capture everyone at action but just as in every successful event, there are people working in the background to make it happen. i could not take photos of anyone standing around looking like they were 'slacking' could i?

that said, i meant it when i said "good job everyone". i AM proud of you.

while the reflection activity today could not be completed on time, and there were tense moments when the problems were highlighted, i thought it went pretty okay. from what you guys wrote, i could see you benefited quite a bit from your participation in SL. more importantly, some of you realised just how lucky you are, discovered your strengths and weaknesses and learnt to be less shy/open yourselves up by talking to 'strangers'.

alright, i shouldn't be posting such a long naggy 'debrief' here because that's what the email is for - guess it's not surprising why i'm being listed as spam?

love,
ms h

thank you

2008-02-19T19:42:00.004+08:00

(check out zoe trying to make me shorter)

hello everyone

thank you for singing me the birthday song not once, but three times on monday. the very first time was the biggest surprise because you guys just burst into the song and with such unison.

thank you for the yummylicious choco cake from jack's place. it is with envy that i hear you guys had a most enjoyable lunch, too bad i can't join you. that said, i'm really happy you guys get along so well, with nobody killing anybody during today's debate.

my other classes found out as well and sang me the birthday song too so that's (no) thanks to some of you who put the news out on the gossip grapevine. at last count, i think i heard the song 7x. an all new record!

btw, HOW did you guys realise it was my birthday?

and in case you were wondering why wasn't the cake the biggest surprise...here are the spoilers.

1. you guys decided to send suxin to ask about monday's lecture, which i thought was totally understandable and shouldn't be problem at all (all that videos!)

2. it's quite fishy if suxin doesn't understand ITCZ. AND left it till so late to ask about it.

3. jalene sat next to suxin grinning like a cheshire cat. she never smiles so much during geog consultations.

4. zoe popped up

5. suxin started flipping her notes desperately...

and that's when you all saved her by magically appearing on the steps :)

so thank you once again everyone. all that energy/exuberance from you guys does have its benefits during times like these (and during SL too).

love,
ms h

WARNING : The contents of the current post might seem like the sickest most M18/R21 thing you've ever read, but it its in fact a PG thing...so relax... :) hehe...tis msg goes out especially to ying xuan xp

I reali had to show u guys tis poem....i did it for lit in first 3 months in MI and its freakin funny...haha!!

My First Time

The sky was dark
The moon was high
All alone
Just her and I
Her hair so soft
Her eyes so blue
I knew just what
She wanted to do
Her skin so soft
Her legs so fine
I ran my fingers
Down her spine
I didn't know how
But I tried my best
To place my hand
On her breasts
I remember my fear
My fast beating heart
But slowly she spread

Her legs apart
And when she did it
I felt no shame
All at once
The white stuff came
At last it's finished
It's all over now
My first time

OK!!!....sounds very M18 doesnt it....cos u didnt read the last line (my MI teacher didnt put in the last line and tried to make us guess wat the poem was about..haha...the answers were...erm...weird...lol)

Here's the last line:

Milking a COW!

By your not-so-sick classmate

holidayssss

2007-11-18T19:24:00.000+08:00

the orchard road learning journey was ..... interesting i suppose. haha. i liked the history part. and walking around with my group. i remembered clearing only 2 stations and begging ms huang to give us a lunch break. haha. and YAMI yoghurt after that. lol. but it was a good time for classmate bonding i suppose. and shermaine t and i were at the countin pedestrian station. the 15 mins we were given felt like the longest 15 mins of our lives. haha. and shermaine and i had a mini competition.

suxin: going towards centre point ---> 243 people( or maybe more i might lost count >.<

shermaine: going towards orchard plaze ---> 241 people. she lost to me by 2! haha. ahh oh well we were trying to find sth to entertain ourselves. :)

alright. this holiday is a very much welcomed one. i finally caught up on lost time :D things that i have not been able to do during the school time. muahaha. this year flashed past realllliiiii quickly! and yup the dreaded A's. so this is what i have been doing:

-going back to my secondary school to help out my beloved drama club. it has been fulfilling and FUN! my juniors are all awesome crazy ppl.
- reading. i missed out on reading a lot back in the last few months. as in reading novels. my fav CHICK LIT. HAHA.
- watching the many movies i missed and going out for movie trips like weekly >.< . korean dramas. and black and white movies! and no don't go calling me an auntie/old. black and white movies rock! they have quality actors and wonderful lines. and its just so so so different from some of the nonsensical film we get nowadays :D
-shopping! long awaited, much needed. HAHA.

and hope everyone's having a nice holiday. DO HAVE ONE :D

love,
suxin

and i shall leave you with lyrics of: time is running out

I think I'm drowning
Asphyxiated
I want to break the spell
That you've created

You're something beautiful
A contradiction
I wanna play the game
I want the friction

You
Will be the death of me
Yeah, you
Will be the death of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

But our time is running out
But our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out

I wanted freedom
Bound and restricted
I tried to give you up
But I'm addicted

Now that you know I'm trapped
Sense of elation
You'd never dream of
Breaking this fixation

You
Will squeeze the life out of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

But our time is running out
But our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out

How did it come to this?

Ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah no no nooo

Yeah, you
Will suck the life out of me

Bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

But our time is running out
But our time is running out
You can't push it underground
You can't stop it screaming out

How did it come to this?

Ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ooh ooh ooh yeah yeah no no nooo

haha.some of the lyrics actually make sense to me.
relate to it? ((:

it rocks!

enjoy.
hahaha.

scream - a geography lesson

2007-10-04T08:28:00.000+08:00

is this how you'll look tomorrow when you see your Geog paper? or your results in two weeks' time? :)

this is a famous piece of work drawn in 1893 by artist Edvard Munch. this is what he has to say about what inspired him to draw this (rather pessimistic piece):

I was walking along a path with two friends—the sun was setting—suddenly the sky turned blood red—I paused, feeling exhausted, and leaned on the fence—there was blood and tongues of fire above the blue-black fjord and the city—my friends walked on, and I stood there trembling with anxiety—and I sensed an infinite scream passing through nature.

what's interesting is the 'geography' behind it. why was the sunset sky blood red (ie.redder than usual)?

A: The reddish sky in the background was possibly inspired by the aftermath of the powerful volcanic eruption of Krakatoa in 1883. The ash that was ejected from the volcano left the sky tinted red in much of eastern United States and most of Europe and Asia for quite a while, from November, 1883 to February, 1884.

More facts: Eruption of the Indonesian volcano Krakatoa in August 1883 generated twenty times the volume of tephra (ash) released by the 1980 eruption of Mt. St. Helens. Krakatoa was the second largest eruption in history, dwarfed only by the eruption of neighboring Tambora in 1815.

More scattering by the ash particles resulted in only the red frequencies reaching our eyes thus the red sky (this is the same concept as why the sky is red during sunset as the light has to travel a longer distance through the atmosphere thus more scattering occurs).

A clear cloudless day-time sky is blue because molecules in the air scatter blue light from the sun more than they scatter red light. When we look towards the sun at sunset, we see red and orange colours because the blue light has been scattered out and away by the time it reaches our eyes.

oookay. didn't manage to share this interesting nugget in atmos tutorial this year due to time constraints so i'm doing it here after one of you asked about Krakatoa :) but no, we are not setting a 9m question on "Why is the sky blue?". if we do, you could be creative and write along the lines of "Because pink would really be overdoing it".

take a break but not for long, as there's still PW and MT (for some of you). see you all in sch.

love,
miss h

2007-09-16T20:56:00.000+08:00

hi everyone

i know it's been a long time since i nagged here. my absence was intentional. in any case, am glad to see wanxin taking over. she's been doing great as a PW rep since term started so make sure you all continue to give her support.

after the rather intense 'civics' lesson on the last Friday of term 3, perhaps you're wondering why i chose to be in teaching despite knowing i'll over-invest myself emotionally. just to share a quote from Dr Ivan Fitzwater:

"I am a teacher! What I do and say is being absorbed by young minds who will echo these images across the ages. My lessons will be immortal, affecting people yet unborn, people I will never see or know. The future of the world is in my classroom today and this future has potential for both good and bad. The pliable minds of tomorrow's leaders will be molded either artistically or grotesquely by what I do.

Several future presidents are learning from me today; so are the great writers of the next decades and so are all the so called ordinary people who will make the decisions in a democracy. I must never forget these same young people could be the thieves and murderers of the future.

Just a teacher? Thank God I have a calling to the greatest profession of all! I must be vigilant every day lest I lose one fragile opportunity to improve tomorrow."

in some ways, that's how i feel.

so i've said right from the start when i first met you - be the class that teachers want to go to and when they are with you, they give their 110%. why shortchange yourself? you might argue that some teachers only give their 85% no matter how well-behaved you are. if that's the case, unfortunately, he/she is still your teacher. as a student in MY class, i expect nothing less than basic courtesy from you all for your teachers. that means controlling your urge to chat/sleep/roll eyes/sigh audibly/whatever other rude behaviour.

this is something i need to instil in all of you because i believe only then will you be respected/loved in time to come. remember, respect and affection needs to be earned.

so why do i want to teach? i might not have very lofty plans like Dr Fitzwater, but at the most basic, I do hope my students benefit in one way or another, be it in character development or in Geography. as a student, i love(d) geog. i chose to teach and i chose to teach geog because i wanted to share my fascination with the subject.

sometimes it does stress me out, when i've got insufficient time to prepare a better, more interesting lesson that will make you guys see why i love geog. there is nothing more frustrating than that. if i had my way, there would be no exams, because then i would probably be able to do away with drilling of DRQ skills.

but you see, nothing in life goes exactly the way you want it. so you just have to make do and make the best out of it. not enough time? too much work to do? prioritise and do what's most important to you, what seems the right thing to do. and sadly, that means not sitting around chatting during breaks/msn-ing/watching anime...

with just 2 weeks left to the promos, please study hard. give your best shot and live with the outcome of your input, without regret.

love,
miss h

When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella

Hello!
The significant PW rep would like to remind all to do their EOM draft 3s!
(unless you don't need to do it/ don't take pw of course)

Chiong! :)

the perfect class

i shall intensify my hunt for our very own mr. whiskers. he will be a great help in ensuring the 36-ers be on their best behaviour and complete their work. i already have a candidate in mind - the malayan tiger at night safari. if you ever get to visit, that is one majestic beast you shouldn't miss. when i was there, the tiger came within 1.5m of us and if not for the safety glass separating us, i would not be here nagging you.

i had fun last wednesday going on the AJ race with you all, although it might have been very interesting if we'd all hopped on the wrong bus and ended up at orchard road. a big thank you to huishan and prashanti for doing a wonderful job leading the class, esp huishan with her "claaaaass, walk faster!!" :)

hope the fun continued with your class outing at bugis. ask me earlier next time and maaaaybe i'll seriously consider going too though that would mean we'll have to drop by the national library...

have read through your WR drafts. not too bad... but there is MUCH room for improvement. no worries, that's what the remaining 2 months are for.

just please do not let me see anyone slacking during PW or make me yell at you all again...i can't guarantee i won't burn your drafts as part of my anger management therapy. that sure is more possible than giving you 10 minutes with mr. whiskers.

love,
miss h

clothes maketh the man/woman

2007-08-01T22:44:00.000+08:00

yes, i know i have an equally if not worse dress sense than the penguins. maaaaaybe one day we should go shopping together so that you can 'funkify' my wardrobe. maaaaaaybe then you also have more reason to pay attention to me...yes?

i've been in your shoes before so i do know it's a fact school's more interesting when your teachers dress nicely. i would like to try to make your day more bearable too but i'm really born with zero fashion sense so :)

BUT you can make my day better by wearing your uniform properly! as it is, we all know the colours don't help much, so please don't aggravate matters by being sloppy. it really bugs me to see shirts tucked out, missing collar pins...and MISSING TIES on wednesday.

remember i said i love seeing you all in ties?

and didn't some of you asked about petitioning for it to be part of the everyday school u? i know that was a l-o-n-g time ago because it was when i'd just met you as a class and i was quite thrown offguard by your enthusiasm.

so moral of the blog entry today is: pls wear your ties :)

i wanted to discuss last wed's tutorial here for all your dory-like memory's sake but i shall do that another time.

before i go, have a new answer to shermaine's question. yes, i miss the three of them already (c'mon, i'm not as heartless as you think).

hope jac, jalene and natalie are having fun in cambridge! take care you three. we'll see you guys soon.

love,
miss h

i need to go shopping.
instead i'm cooped up at home tomorrow doing homework.
heeee.
zoe is here.

and i'm going to watch the maury show.
go YOUTUBE it!(:hahaha.

it's exciting.

we all need a lil magic in our lives

2007-07-23T14:15:00.000+08:00

hellos you all.

these days there's only zowie and me blogging. and i'm only keeping it up because i told myself to do so frequently for more contact time between us. so that even when you're online and presumably not doing work, you'll hear miss h's irritating voice saying "GO STUDY!"

well, i spent my saturday reading the deathly hallows. who hasn't and would like to? i can save you the trouble and tell you how it ends. haha.

i would love to teach at hogwarts. aside from the yummylicious food served in the beautiful cavernous dining hall, there's also the lovely setting in which the castle sits. for that, i'll willingly teach for peanuts.

i'm sure it goes without saying too, that you guys would give anything to attend school there...no boring subjects, no PW..like wow.

even if we all prayed hard enough, it'll still remain a fantasy. so let's all return to the reality that is term three.

hang on in there!

love,
miss h

and yet another week has passed...

2007-07-13T15:14:00.000+08:00

dear 36-ers,

can't believe i survived a mad friday being a blind bat.

it's only week 3 of term 2 and i'm feeling drained. aren't you guys tired? i feel tired for you! there's so much going on simultaneously in your life: H2s, H1s, GP, MT, PW, SL, CCA and then there's HP (harry potter), BGR, MSN and what have you outside school.. etc etc etc....it amazes me to see a class (okay, 25% of it anw) of energizer bunnies on a friday afternoon.

thank you for agreeing to each run the mile for a good cause, even our very busy harmit has agreed (don't you dare back out now). btw, i've signed up for the Run for Hope too, it takes place 16 Sept Sun and i'm going for the 4k jog (note i didn't say 'run') so join me if you can/want! :)

just want to say term 3 will be especially hectic because there's PW. really hope you guys will be more serious about it because it's not like your other subjects where you get a second chance eg. at the promos, to improve your grade. this is IT and next year you have to live with whatever grade you receive. so let's work hard together alright?

don't forget about your other subjects too. see, aren't you all so busy people?

hope you all had fun at the harry potter movie...i'm looking forward to watching dim sum dollies tmr! yes miss h has a life too...well, sometimes. cya all monday.

love,
miss h

ps/ i know i keep saying i wish i could disappear and not see you guys, but you do know i'm kidding right? 36 may be an incredibly noisy & playful class, but still much too lovable for me to give up on. not now anw :)

pictureful day.

2007-07-04T19:25:00.000+08:00

a photo post(:
heeeee.

gracie pok post your photos too k!(:
on a pretty wednesday afternoon.

btw: do you realise that swings are damm rare in singapore now?
so angry la!)))):

deal or no deal?

2007-07-03T11:50:00.000+08:00

i have not watched a single episode of that gameshow.

but as i was saying, let's make a deal. it goes like this.

first of all, we will have a class party at the end of the year.

conditions being:

1. all of you must be promoted to J2 (otherwise i'll not be in any mood for a party).

2. your geography grade in the promotional examinations will decide the amount of sponsorship from me. i know you guys are rich and can afford to throw a not-too-shabby party on your own, but that would be using your parents' money and it's not something to be smug about!

how it works: the percentage of grades above C will be the percentage of the costs i will most gladly sponsor. ie.if 80% of the class scores C and above for Geog, i will foot 80% of your bill.

okay?

so deal or no deal? :)

btw, why isn't anyone blogging anymore?

love,
miss h

happiness

i guess that is what you all are feeling, now that your nightmarish week is over!! :)

congrats everyone. i'm proud of each and every one of you for putting up a good fight......well i'll really know whether you did after marking your papers.

have a good rest this weekend. check your email for PW matters. trust me, you'll regret it if you do not follow the instructions in there.

on a lighter note, missed you all terribly! looking forward to see you all next week!

love,

miss h

amazing grace

2007-05-25T08:10:00.000+08:00

this post is for grace, who was very brave yesterday when i was swabbing her wound w antiseptic. hope your knee and elbow are less painful today! welcome to the club of scraped knees - i believe you aren't truly human until you fall and scrape your knee.

to make you feel better, let me tell you how i got my 'badge' to the club of scraped knees. i was running for the bus outside my secondary school and i fell flat on my face. everyone on the left side of the bus saw. and the driver was so nice, he waited for me to pick myself up and hobble up the bus. which means EVERYONE on the bus (including the righties) got to see the tak glam me.
i think my face was redder than my scraped knee.

so you see? grace, you're luckier :)

pls take care! it'll take a long time to heal but in the mean time, you get to be queen and order your fellow 36-ers around.

love,
miss h
