yesterday was pretty tiring and boring, i must say. me, nico, siting, shunzi, serene and tc met up on bus 39. we reported to the hall, and on the way there there was a row of Meridians(presumely sc) welcoming us. it was pretty embarrassing, and it reminds me of that time we went to the tp open house, and the same thing happened. except that the tp people were more hyper. we saw miki, yiting and bread outside the hall at the notice boards, where we were grouped temporary according to alphabetical order. me, teckli and nico were in 1 group. haha..our surnames start with 'C' mah..=)
there was a welcome video, welcome address by the principal, briefing on admin stuff, jc curriculum, online subject combi registration, subject talks and briefing for HMT students by the MT department.(actually, i copied this out of the timetable. heh heh.) oh well. so then there was course counselling, which was optional, and demostration lectures. they said that they were probably the only jc who had this. and they are proud of it. hmm..i guess it helps a little because we can know what it will be like in lectures and what we will be learning.
well..after looking at the university prerequisites(they were provided in the mj handout too), and thinking a lot a lot a lot(i swear, i haven't thought so much about making choices before, really), i decided to change my combi. before that it was econs, maths, geog and h1 bio, but i decided to appeal to science stream, and if my appeal is successful, i will be taking bio, chem, maths and econs, all h2. hmm..i kind of hope to get into bio related courses in uni, maybe life sciences that kind of thing, so i will have to take h2 bio, but to take h2 bio, i have to also take h2 chem, so im forced to take this combi. haha. it's pretty frustrating, as i really doesn't like chemistry. hey wait, with this combi, i might as well go tj. lol. oh nevermind, i love mj. =D
today it was pretty much the same, except that we learnt the school cheers, heard them introduce the 4 houses to us, and watch them dance the mass dance. we are going to learn it tomorrow. it's really long-i don't know how im going to remember all the steps. =x
well, today at the school library i had some problem with the online course registration, so me and serene went to the general office to check with them. so i was talking to this teacher, and he said there was no problem, and if im worried i can go ask the teacher-in-charge at a later time. i don't know what my face looked like, but the teacher was like, "are you okay?" i was surprised he asked me that-maybe i looked confused and 迷惘 that kind of thing..hur hur. actually im just feeling frustrated i have to wait till 3+ to see the teacher-in-charge, and worried that i have to find her. frankly, i don't like to go find teachers in the staff room. oh well, so i was like, "im fine.." lol.
which reminds me of something that happened in primary 6. i was outside the classroom, waiting for my classmates to come out of the class and queue up. being very bored, i was playing with the locks on the lockers outside. just then, this teacher from another class came up the stairs with her class trailing behind, saw me, and start scolding me for playing with the locks. i didn't respond-i was actually feeling irritated and wondering when she was going to stop reprimanding me..'oh well, pretty fast, i guess, she still has a class to take'. i wasn't scared(surprisingly), maybe because im going to graduate anyway, so who cares what the teachers think? just then, she said, "are you going to cry? i hate students who cry!" i was stunned. what did she interpret on my face?? she stalked off, leaving me standing rooted on the spot. i think i have some serious problems with my facial expressions. lol.
right right i wanted to blog about this part. in mjc, i saw quite a few of my primary school friends too. benjamin, roxanne, emilyn, xingqiang(he dao-ed me..or he pretended he didn't see me. haiz..nevermind, im guilty of that sometimes=P), yuehao, sharifah(correct spelling?). yeah, nico said she saw soleil..but i personally didn't see her la. pretty cool..and weird that we are in the same school again. and in our cohort, there are the most TKGS people. oh yes, zhihui became the fastest person to make a new friend. haha..it's true! on just the first day, she made a new friend..she is called zhi han. and we aren't even in OGs. oh well.
oh please, can some tj people in TG blog? i don't know what's going on in their schools-okay, maybe not, i did ask some of them on msn-but still, update your blogs so i can at least know how you people are doing..miss all of you already. =)
bye~
