Signs of Life - Lifehouse

[ It’s a long ride don’t think it’s over
It’s a fine line between disaster and a good time
Pick up the pieces and find out who you are
It’s a cool sound you know you’re hiding
For a meltdown feeling the pressure
Like a landslide you have to figure out why you fell apart ]

Their songs never fail to calm me down and make me find peace.

It's really a wonder how something small can balloon up into a huge fuss, making you feel like crap, bringing in all the other problems in the world.

the best. =D

I MISS THESE PEOPLE.
(ok, ignore the fact that I ruined the photo by lagging in jumping. Actually, I dunno what I was doing. LOL.)

Met up with Faeqa at KAP today and went back to plaza to meet Weiying! I seriously miss them super lot. Like I can really not get tired of seeing them. LOL. Though yes, we haven't meet up with each other for awhile. Ok, see Faeqa more frequent but she this annoying face won't get sick of seeing one. =D (I'm not praising you.)

And seriously, the things we do cannot be comprehend. I don't get why I bothered travelling to KAP just to meet Faeqa for lunch so that we can let Weiying study alone first since we both wanted to slack today and then we meet Weiying after she studied for awhile. LOL. Makes no sense right? I realised that after we went to find Weiying and she stop studying after she saw us. LOL. Ok, so maybe it works better that we didn't find her. =D

But omg yes, we need to study! Study dates together soon alright? Like really MUST MUST study. I'm glad I have smart friends. =D But yea, now the only common subjects I have with them are math and econs. But ok, enough already. =D

Ah!! I seriously miss those crazy pple that make me laugh like no tomorrow. We should have random dinners soon and stay out late and walk home together as one whole big group. Make hell lot of noise but don't really bother. Sing like we own the whole world. Ok, for the girls only. And sing until make the guys runaway from us but they still never really runaway literally. HAHAHAHA! I'm tired. Lol. Talking all sort of rubbish.

But yes, I really hope I can meet them soon. Annoying bunch of pple. I think must set a date first then see if they are free. Seriously man. They suck at replying stuffs. Ah, it's really tiring to organise stuffs sometimes, but somehow I still want to. Lol. Think I'm crazy. But I guess meeting them really makes everything feels better. =)

Talking to Faeqa and Weiying today just makes me feel happier. HAHA! The thing I love about 6H is we can meet up randomly since we live so near. But then, their curfew is quite strict so quite sad lar. But yep, it's still awesome. =)

Ohya! Had Zoolmpix yesterday! Wahahaha kids are seriously so cute. =D My station was to shoot down insects and we had nerf gun! Haha! Played with it and yes, it's really fun. =D But yes, the children are really cute lar. If I was allowed and in the mood, I would have taken photos of them. =D Little people that can make you smile and be happy. =)

And wahahahah Ben and Jerry's for $3.20 due to staff discount. =DD I'm so going to eat it again next week. =D I LOVE THE ZOO!

that one shot

HAHA! I'm done posting what I wanted to post. =D

Went Plaza Sing with Puiling today. =D Needed to get nice papers for people, which I forgot that I can actually get from Clementi Mall. LOL. But yep, love her for pei-ing me. =D Naughty girl that skipped school. Haha! Slacked and catch up with each other. Was really lazy to walk around so ended up sitting at Mac and talked for super long. =) I'll post the photo of us together but then I'm lazy to sync my phone. =D

Photography is something that I really love and enjoy doing. One photograph can tell a lot of stories. That’s the very special thing about photography. It is about capturing that moment and remembering it forever; that one shot. The reason why I first picked up photography was for keeping memories. I want to be able to look back at what I did a few years back, the people that I was with and the memories that we shared. It can be meaningful as well. A picture can be very influential and impactful. An important message can be put across in just one photograph. That is why I love photography. All it takes is one photograph and many feelings and emotions can be expressed.

It was what I wrote for the photog exco application form. Haha! Just felt like posting it.

Zoolympix tmr! Time to do some people's cards and then turn in for sleep! Ah, doubt I can finish the cards. =\

Photog Soc Exco 2010-2011 and 2011-2012! =)

Photog Soc Exco Com 2010-2011 and 2011-2012! =D

This photo is super epic. Half the pple are smiling nicely and half are serious. Haha! It's damn comic. =D

With our things! Haha! The awesome fake cashcard. =D


This photo is super candid! All the pple standing faces are damn funny. =D


Haha! Us with the puppets! Super cute lar the puppets! =D

So yep! These are the photos from the camp! =D OK so yep, time for my long post about the camp. =D

I learned a whole bunch of things during this camp. Be it photography, leadership, myself. A lot of things. And I found pple that I really truly respect. Seniors that I really have deep respect for.

All 7 of the 2010-2011 Exco batch are really awesome. They are so dedicated in this CCA which no regular club Exco com will be. They really put in a lot of effort in planning this exco camp for us, sacrificing their weekends just so that we'll get to learn a lot of things from them and be able to take over from them better. They didn't have such great seniors like them to teach them everything and had to start from scratch, lost and quite confused. But they managed Photog Soc so well and brought it to such great heights. The school really recognise Photog Soc and it's really because of their efforts. Without their dedication, perserverance and tenacity, Photog Soc will not be as it is now. They are really true inspiration and leaders that I really look up too. Their passion for photography and the CCA is amazing. I'm going to miss them super lot though I only knew them better during the 2 days of camp. They are super funny and crazy seniors that are super close to each other. Their bond is so strong that it kinda surprised me but it really felt nice seeing how comfortable and close they were to each other.

And we the 2011-2012 batch, are really awesome too. Haha! We are made up of different personalities but I know we will be able to complement each other and manage the CCA well. And also enjoy it at the same time. We didn't know each other well when we first know that we were in exco. Some of us don't even know each other or seen each other before. But as the days past and after the camp, I'm pretty sure we know each other more and are closer to each other. And I really can't wait for our journey together for the next few months until we finally step down and hand this responsibility to someone else. I'm really excited for it and I'm quite sure we'll have a blast. We were so awesome to actually continue developing our film in that hot stuffy darkroom as the air-con wasn't switched on that day. =D I hope we'll continue from where our seniors left off and bring photog soc to even greater heights! =)

I am really glad that I decided to sign up for exco and I'm glad that I made it into exco as well. I still wonder how I actually got through 'cause I really thought I screwed up my interview but yes, I'm really glad that I made it through. And I'll do my best as a member of the exco com! =)

And yes, my passion for photography is burning bright. Haha! Sounds funny but yep, the camp really inspired me to be a great leader and to be a good photographer. I really want to improve on my skills. So yep! I'll make good use of this June break as much as I can! =)

"To take a photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy.

To take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning.

It is putting one's head, one's eye and one's heart on the same axis."

dinner with awesome pple! =D

I wanted to take another group photo! But then my camera battery died on me. Tsk. I really must remember to charge the batteries!!

Had dinner with Jiesi, Nisa, Junyuan, Jordan, Sweden and Felicia last Friday! Supposingly meet NJ pple like Sijia and Ian also but then both of them not free so it ended up AC pple with 1 sad NJ guy which is really one person I really really see often. =D But okok, not complaining.

They waited for me since I had photog that day. But I did told them to leave first just that they said wait. Jiesi sms and told me that by the time I end I'll see her read body and the reason for death: starvation. Childish kid. Tsk tsk. But ok, they are nice pple. =D When they wanted to leave without me, I came over. Haha! Good timing! =D

LOL. I sound so freaking high now. Anyway, so went over to Buona Vista, met Sweden. Everyone laughed at him at first sight. He really looked like some old man. MRT was super packed and I actually got in the first one just that only me and somehow someone told me to get off and I did and yes we were all hungry and cracky and wah! The ride there was so annoying though it's just 4mintues. Squeezed like crap. But yes! My awesome hair annoyed everyone. =D

Ate at Clementi Mall food court since Junyuan was complaining about his throat and everything else again. =D Okok, he really wasn't feeling well and he is going to dance for the whole of this week. Dance is really hiong man but yep! They got 3 days of concert so yep!

Walked around the mall and Junyuan went off earlier since he wasn't feeling well. The rest of us decided to just slack at Mac for a while before we went home. Started to reminisce about sec 3 and 4. Seriously miss those times!! Miss 4E1 super lot. They are really an awesome bunch of people. Hope I'll get to see a lot of people on 14th June! =D Going ice-skating! Haha! Bet we'll really fall there instead of skating there. Oh man, I feel like just go there take photos of them instead of skating. Hmm.. Maybe I should. =D

Brendan came when Nisa and Jordan left. LOL. He loser lar he. Canoeing crazy person. Keep hanging out with the canoeist. Forget about us already lar? Sheesh. But at least he was guilty. Haha! Kept saying Jiesi and I angst. Who tell you keep ditching us for canoeing? Tsk tsk.

But yes! Though we just have dinner together, and even though we really meet for a short well, it's still nice. Ah, old friends are really still the best. =) They just give this comfortable feeling that you really can't find it anywhere else. And yes, I'm really lucky and thankful and grateful that I still have them in AC! =D I don't think I would have survived the past few months without them around! I love the feeling when we happened to see each other during breaks and just crap talk for awhile before we join back our classes. That feeling is just nice. LOL. Like this familiar feeling. Qing Qie Gan! =D So yes, I'm really glad that so many 4E1 pple are in AC. =)

And of course there's Swapna and Jiawan too!! =D When Felicia and Jiesi can't go home with me, I know who I can find. Haha! And yes, she will call me too when she needs someone to accompany her home. =D And of course, she's in the same CCA as me! So yep, it's really awesome. =) And I love how I can still annoy Jiawan by playing with her hair and poking her, making her want to kill me. =D

So yes!! I really love all these people for being in ACJC with me! =DD

Last Day of Term 2!

1AA3 with Ms Kwan!

Ms Kwan! She is really a super good GP teacher and awesome senior to us! Really taught me a lot about GP and I really hope I'll do well in GP and not let her down! Hope we got a good teacher after her! =)

LOL! We went up to the roof top garden during the lunch break. =D And took photos there. Haha! Some pple in the classroom saw us and laugh like crap. OK true, we looked super funny lar. Go up there just to take photos. HAHA!

Khai's last day with us as a classmate!

OK so yep, end of term 2 and 3 people are leaving! First is Khai. He's going TP to study now. Though I'm not very close to him but somehow I felt this heavy feeling when he told us it was his last day with us. Maybe I got the feeling from Eunice. Haha! He was super sad! I hope he will really do well in TP and enjoy his time there!

Next is Ryan Michael Chin! He's going to UK to study IB. We lost our Assistant Class Rep! Going to miss his weird Chinese and always rushing and telling us to go lesson on time. Haha! Without him around, I think we're going to take a longer time to get to class on time!

Finally, Ms Kwan!! She's really a super good GP teacher and I really learn super lot from her. Hope she will do well in uni! I really hope we'll get a good GP tutor after her!

Our class currently has 5 guys now. LOL. Win totally. But yep! I really hope the remaining 1 and a half years will be nice too! =)

Netball Finals!

Netball finals on last Wednesday! The match was super intense and exciting! The one thing I really love about AC is the AC spirit. We were cheering like crazy throughout the match and a whole huge bunch of us came to support for netball! It's super cool.

The match was held at Jurong East Sports Complex!!!! All the memories man! Totally miss that place. Felt super nostalgia when we got down the bus. The KFC that we often hung out after when we had the time. Semester 2 of Sec 3 we went there almost every Friday for lunch after HCL! Totally miss that place. It's so quiet and empty and you can just play and make a lot of noise without fearing that you will disturb others. =D Ah, suddenly miss all the times there a lot. We really did a lot of stupid stuffs there. And to think we were already Sec 3 and 4s then. Haha!

Anyway, yep! The match was awesome!! And of course our school's girls won the match!! But it was really super close! But yep! Felt super happy for them! We all sang our school song together after the match. I think it's the first time I actually sang the school song? Lol! It was really awesome. The whole AC spirit can be felt! =D

Went JP with Jiesi, Nisa, Felicia and Sweden after that. (As you can see in almost a lot of places, the people I got with always ends with Felicia and Sweden. HAHA! Story of their lives. =D But okok, I don't mind meeting them. =D just that one girl I have to see often almost everyday. How sad my life.)

Okok, anyway, so yep, supposingly to look and buy my shoes that day but didn't really find any one that I really really like so didn't buy anything. Ate dinner at Carl's Junior which Feli and I shared. When I heard her say, "Yf! Do you want to share?" I can't help laughing. HAHA! Ah, I really miss those times.

travelling from here to there? =D

Saw Puiling's post about this photo and how typical this photo is but at the same time, it's special and nice. And I was positioning my iPhone no dslr. HAHA! Lousy Puiling. =D But yes, I really love being around them and just hanging out, talking random stuffs, eating random food. It's just this comfort with each other that is hard to find. These are the people where silences aren't awkward. Where you do something real stupid and they laughed at you but you laughed together with them too. (Ok, sometimes not.) But yep! I really love these people and miss them hell lots. Hope we can meet up again during the June Holidays no matter how short it is. =)

So yep! Went Marina Square for dinner with Puiling, Qiaofen, Jiesi, Feli and Sweden after Zoolympix! Puiling was the earliest for the first time ever!!! I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!! Just that sadly, we all happened to be late that day. Lol. But still, I'm super proud of Puiling. =D

Ate at Jack's Place 'cause we were out of ideas and just wanted to eat straight. Ohya! We saw Mr Tan with Ms Lin there! Haha! He's just as funny as ever and super lame lar. And now that we are no longer his official students, he say more stuffs. Haha! But yep! It's so cool how we so happened to see him there. =D Totally miss the Fuhua teachers! They are really awesome.

So slacked around outside Marina Square. I suddenly asked them if they know the I travel from here, where did I stop game. =D It's so fun to play with pple when they don't know the answer! Just that it got tiring but luckily Sweden figured out after that then at least got someone else. =D Felicia SUCK!!! She loser man. All of them got it already and she still didn't. And she only got it when we told her. Big L for you man. =D

Bus back with Jiesi, Feli and Sweden. I MISS QIAOFEN! The cool 187 gang is no more. =( And wah, I really really miss Qiaofen 'cause she'll let me sleep if I'm tired and talk softer if she's talking to the others. Some idiot talked so freaking loud and then purposely talk in my ear so that I could hear him through the ear piece. Such an awesome friend I have totally. Pple tired don't let her sleep. Thanks ar.

Really miss them!! And yes omg, Junyuan and Brendan too! Junyuan ok but Brendan really super duper long since we had dinner with him! Tsk tsk. Ah, really hope I can meet up with them over June holidays! Agents' Meeting hor. Last Agents' meeting was like Feli's birthday which was how many million years ago! Meet up soon! Even if it's to study together. Woah, lucky we are all in JCs. Ok technically, we are all in the same sch except one. =D But I happened to meet that one more often then the other two because of someone. =DD

Oh crap, speaking of which, I think I better start doing their cards. Annoying pple.
