Started off at block 248 today where we would be spending our Saturday morning collecting newspapers and old clothes from the residents of the aforementioned block, 247, 268 and 296. Met my group, Alicia and Rebecca and we hurried off to start.


It was very messy from the start as there was no proper organization. We started off from the bottom floor of this block which has NO lifts at all (smart eh?). Knock knock at doors saying "We are from Tampines Junior College. We are here to collect newspapers and old clothes to be sold for recycling and the money donated to Dover Park Hospiece." Sian... whole morning say that...

Whenever we see this


we will always get excited, coz no need to knock on doors. If the resident leaves newspapers outside with our flyer attached, we are free to collect it! Then, there is this one problem, the residents keep on thinking im a chinese!!!!! Why? Im not malay enough meh?!

Anyways, we all went to the second block to collect newspapers, and there was where the fun was. One malay guy, gave us so much newspapers, the lift was filled with it... Lucky got lift at every floor this time round. But then, the lift a bit screwed up coz when we tried to unload the newspapers, the lift started making a lot of noise and kept on threatening to close the door on us. So... we threw the papers out of the lift like nobody's business!!!! The result:


All we collected from the block were dumped here


under the care and share of Ms Peh (not in pict).

Last block... actually it wase'nt so tireing lah... We did it in our own stride... I just skip the grandfather story lah. All that we collected from this block, we dumped here.


When the collecting lorry finally came, we had to load it up. Damn fun coz the class was like, line up from the dumping area to the open door.


Then we passed the stuff to eash other!

Gareth and Azam... those jokers..


Joel ah, so strong...


To be Frank (in class joke), it was a good day...

Its 3.50 am, why am I not sleeping...? I dunno, chatting wif Ali for like, nearly 4 hours... I want to sleep!!!

First of all, im sooo

for not updating my blog for some time... You know, JC life is tough. I was also down with the flu for a large part of this week, so you know, my life is not just all fun, laughter and joy.

Today was earth hour,


and as you guessed it, I participated in the "event"!!!

Here are some pictures i took at home in the darkness:
My bedroom:


My Living Room:


My toilet:



The darkness is what gives them a mysterious feeling... Anyway, it was just an hour in darkness, nothing much. I would say it is one step to greenifying the world.

Went back to Dunman last friday to take my SGC with Ali and Munir.


What shocked me, was all the huge changes that have happened in a very short span of time since our graduation. The school facade was like, totally revamped from before.


The canteen even has 2 LCD TVs!!! Now I'm beginning to wish that I had been retained, or went on to sec 5...



We went to the canteen afterwards where we meet the Denise, Wei Kwang, Jin Jia and Sing Chuen.




Of course lah, from the moment we all met, we started chatting about our time in Dunman, how we miss our dear teachers,



how the new PE shirt sux, how we never got to experience the new facilities and how our old classroom has been renovated...


Anyways, we then took a walk around the school, looking at the changes that had happened while waiting for Sam, Weijie and Dinesh to collect their SGCs.



The school is looking spanking new already, though I still feel that the badge changes are awkward...


Then, we all met again at the canteen, and continue to bitch around... I followed Dinesh and Ali to the pull-up bars near the front gate (keyword: followed. What for I do the pull-ups?!). Yalah, they all can pull themselves up like, so many times... I only one time can...

Went back to the canteen after that. We all felt like, its time to go home, so we slowly walked to the main gate and who should we find? Ashley, in his full VJ uni, looking as shabby as ever. We all talked a bit before finally parting ways again...

I miss the sofa and giant mirror at the back of the class...


Some crazy people's antics after maths consultation..



And how 4 of us would always conduct our daily prayers at the back of the class...
And how the class would normally bitch around or just slack off at the sofas, in the comfortable aircon...

Ok, maybe not the night studies, they were very tiring...


We still have speech day to look forward to


Miss-miss also life still have to move on...
