Penguins lovin'it

Promoted to the rank of Corporal today :D hehe so happy, i was certain that i would fail but i made it :D. So went to KFC and celebrated with my squadmates :D. Riduan was poor thing toppled his drink so sad. =( Then lol Sir Desmond forgot to return the key so ran back to school just to return that key. Next week having fund raising for Haiti relief. After hearing what Mr Lam had said, it makes me really go into deep thoughts, if we send cash there, there bound to be some corruption to occur. Sending food there, most might not reach the people in time cus conflicts over methods to transport the food and the sequence of places for the food to be transported to. So i have prioritise what the money i would like the Singapore red cross to spent on,

1. Antibiotics
2. Anesthesia
3. Drinkable water
4. Canned/Processed Food

Then i just think that many people do not understand the job of the SC, they have the absolute thought that we are against them. Come on lah people, you want to try doing our job for like 3 months? You think we really want to carry out the DC every morning frankly speaking i am sick of it already. We already make accomadations for you guys already, you still try and be funny play punk with the system, everyone should ought to go for NS to really experience the consequences of disobeying orders. All the typically Singaporeans, all you guys know is to complain about your situation and the solutions ask the government or In-Charges to think about it. You people just take for granted that the situation would be resolved magically by just complaining WTH. Please make some sense here, complaining is not gonna improved the situation without you guys giving your opinion.

Back to the first point have you ever tried being sandwiched in a situation, I guess most of you would say not so. And to that Basketball guy who i caught you can hate me all you want i dun really care. I am just doing my duties and to tell you the truth that day when i caught, i discussed with at least 3 other councillors whether to approved your shoes and we agreed it was not acceptable. The shoes should only be put on before CCA or before you guys board the bus for competition.

After a whole week of school, i feel that i am not suitable towards the way Mr Ching teaches instead i am more suitable to the way my tutor does. I feel that Mr Ching teaches quite fast and sometimes its quite hard to understand what he is trying to convey. So am spending my time now to slowly go thtough the textbook and learning it all over again.
Also to a certain teacher, if you have anything you dislike about me, you can tell me straight in the face after lesson, you do not neccessary have to make it known to the world. I also do not appreciate your forgiveness, your tone does not convince me its sincere so save it! And well i will not get angry over such minor matters especially when it involves you!

Hm... still trying to find solutions for the recess situation, some suggested to extend the recess. For me i would prefer if the teacher could release the sec 3s 8-10 mins before recess, so that when the sec 4s and 5s come down there would be a shorter Q. Will see how it goes on Thursday. I like the work of being a councillor, its like being a politician and a law enforcer, just the job i love :D There will be dangers involved but its part and parcel of the job just have to be prepared.

- Penguin =D

Morning woke up then faster chiong go school. I in drill squad for the whole CCA day. From 8-11 of course with some breaks in between. Some mistakes did occur during the time we were drilling but on the whole still alright. Then debrief, Ms Lim said that it was good, parents were impressed with our CCA. Then another part of the briefing was about something going to Macau dunno when need to reply by Monday.


So that's the end of the CCA part, next was the thing for scholarship and busary thing in the afternoon. Lunch after we meet up quickly rushed to KFC for lunch. Then before 1245 reached school and started to have briefing. Then got station and prepared for the people to arrvie. Not really a big crowd cus RC people snatch most of our job of urshering in the hall so nothing much to do there. Went to Main gate and help Weikang instead. Around 1420, Mr Tharman arrived and his councillor ushers were Syafiqah and Septimo. At 1430 went to hall and prepared for the crowd control thing, so in the end, RC people help me do the crowd control and i just have to take care of the picture frames. LOL wth. Then went down for refreshments first before all the crowd went down. Then next job was to ensure that the session 2 people went up to the hall before Mr Tharman arrival. Following that, i became a walkway ursher towards the hall. Then everyone settle and i no job. So roam around and rest, looked for suff to do. So finally finished.

Debrief dam short one and maybe alittle on the clapping part. Then Ms Ong said that we provided good service as we were not the organiser so alot of things we were not sure and had to take many instructions so that was a challenge we overcame. And then when Mr Tharman was going home, i inform everyone then they just keep shouting and attracted Mr Tharman attraction. Below is an extract of the conversation.

Mr Tharman "Is this some kind of a club or something?"
Ms Ong " Er... nope, this is the student council"
Mr Tharman "Oh... I heard that they are choosen at Sec 1s"
Ms Ong "yeah"
Mr Tharman "So what is this place?"
Ms Ong "Er... this is the Student council room"
Mr Tharman " I see, quite a nice place"

Then the cameraman stood on the table and took a photo of all of us there with Mr Tharman :D yipee. The JSS SC has received recognition from Mr Tharman today :D Then Mr Tham came in then everyone was laughing, then i was thinking what, actually it was Septimo's court shoes, so quickly put it aside. Then when Mr Tham left and said continue, Septimo kick out her shoes again. Then we look at her, she say " what he say carry on what we were doing mah :D" Then when Mrs Sophia was going home, all the councillors lined up and like usher her car out :D Hahas lol so funny :D so many things happened.

So this 3 days taking 1B was not an easy task, faced and tried to overcome the multiple problems. So below is a sumary of the orientation.



Day 1 was quite chaotic, cus it rained and had wet weather plan instead for assembly. The whole council reacted quite fast to the situation. Together sang dam loud the Natona Anthem and Schoo song, we were ike pratically shouting, lol :D Next the sec 1s changed to PE and went for the Sports selection. The whole plan was screwed up that day, due to our principal who talk longer than time given. So recess and the discipline talk was in chaos cus everyone was all over the place as there was a broken line of communications. Due to time constraint, Telematch was postponed and carried on with friendship. Some just wouldn't hold the others' hand for the friendship dance. Then finally end of day 1.

Debrief, initially was quite okay and joked around. However, batch debrief was like WTH. Say what our coords have to beg us, they are not begging us, they are just talking to us politely. Then fall in, say the batch have changed, like no, the whole batch is still the same as it was. So al the expected thing next asking how to solve the problems that occured adn to foresee problems.


Day 2, the sec 1s changed and went for the JSS treasure, at one station, they just smash theice cus not enough time already, so i reused the ice to cool myself :D Today things went according to time plan :D YEAH! Next game was smash the lollipop, i tied the based of the catapult while Sean spammed the twine on it :D. There were a few fail-save menchanism to prevent the catapult for collapsing. Sean and Sam were then busy thinking of a way to get more resources while i continue to secure the catapult. While then at then field no one used the catapult cus too short range and troublesome and used hand instead. wth. Had telematch next and everyone had fun, can see. :) Had alot of fun cus there were cheers and stuff like that going on. So debrief, WS and A went out to say their exprience on an incident. Then Ms Ong started with Respect before Adrien continue. Did better today and everything was alright except the need to have more situational awareness and morning duties.


Day 3, which is today, the class went for photo taking although 3 people kena need to cut hair. haiz. Next they went for the online reflections. Some people had problems with the facebook, cus some had not sign up yet which was wasting time, Corene had to bring them to another place to complete the reflections. At recess, Ahoyset had to take photos so only the sec 2 facis weyeare looking after them, heard that my class kena scolded by Adrien. During the photo taking, dam funny Wk were a skirt and then the cameraman went and took a picture :D hahas Weikang Had some ice-breaking games to let them know each other better. Then Cheering competetions had some problems getting the class together but we made it :D Next was class picnic, was seri iously dam hungry so asked Ms Lam if i could grab some leftovers. She agreed thanks :D Teaching of school song and over.

Tmr have to help the keyholder of 1B hope he can be a good one :D Jiayous! 1B can be quite a difficult class to handle. Not willing to lead even at the end was so embarrassed as a faci everyone staring at me. Then like they can suddenly be enthu and the next not. Sometimes can be extremely incooparative which is not very good as a class. But still got the fun people in the class and the all kinds of people you willl see in a class, its normal :D Hope that they can do well in academics and move to NA stream. And moreoff dun get into disciplinary trouble.

Today chiong go school for DC, i thought i was dead. Sure get fine one, die liao. Reached at 0652, it was so lucky that the fine system had not started yet. Got our new post, yipee should be quite exciting for some and some not so. I gotten SAC(I/C) i love it :D. Had Assembly, sec 1s Principal's talk which apparently affected the whole programme. The Sec 1s went back, change to PE. We taught them a cheer, miggle with them. Then went for the sports selection. That's where problems arise, as people who were selected had to stay back awhile, boys and girls were spilt. then a broken line of communications. Had problems getting them up to the hall as many of them had not finished their meals.

When we finally got everyone to the hall. The sec 1s had their discipline talk given by Ms Ong. Following that a boy/girl talk. Then had friendship dance, there was two guys i dun know why just won't hold each other's hand, they die die wun hold. Finally debrief the sec 1s and everyone went home. Then got juniors from my primary school caused me some problems, need to clarrify with them tmr(urgent)

In this event today, we were faced with several problems. Firstly people getting lost, well we have come up a system to settle that. Secondly, the discipline standards. I am happy with my class that no one tried to go against us or try to act funny :). Thirdly Need to get the classes more enthu --> by EDCC. Wonder if the Sec 1s remember their homework given by Mr Derek(okay i dun know how to spell)

Woah today dam tired woke up at noon. Then at 1400h went to pick up my maid at the Airport. Apparently she went back to the Philippines for a month. So cool today at the Airport saw a whole bunch of Boeing 747 and 737. Didn't manage to see the Airbus 380, sigh.

Gonna fall sick one of thesedays, having flu, which i am afraid that it might escalate into a fever. Not good for starting a new year. Was watching a show about Einstein on History Channel today. There's one thing that puzzles me, Einstein said that it is not Gravity pulling on objects but Space pushing on the object. Wonders who can enlighten me, hmm...

So Mondays school reopens. So looking forward to working with my fellow batchmates again :D Wonders if there is anyone in the class i am assigned to from Nan Hua Primary. Hope that not too much trouble aroused from the Sec 1s. Hope that they will be cooperative and have fun in the orientation in JSS :D
