As like many other schools, we celebrated Teachers’ Day on Friday and it was a day filled with laughter, surprises and tons of fun. Putting aside all the sad emotions, some happy pictures!

Ratatouille: C'est bon!
Ok. I know some people have been questioning what I’ve been updating even though I mentioned in previous posts that I was going to be on a hiatus. Well, I guess I won’t ever bother mentioning that again. After all, sometimes when I feel like blogging it just needs a certain spark you know? If I ever decide to stop blogging then well, I just will.
Yesterday was the final day of part 1 of our Sec 4 Prelim 2. Geography was bleah, I mean seriously unexpected to me. Mrs Bala commented to me when I was walking down the stairs to the hall that I “looked like I was going to be slaughtered”. I certainly felt like a zombie after only having about 5 hours of sleep the previous night.
Sat down for the exam and as usual, time constraints made it hard to write as many points as possible. I’m used to it I guess. After the exam, I went back to class with JX and we met Mrs Bala (so coincidental!) and then I was complaining to her about the stupid paper… then she commented that JX look “destroyed”. I wanted to correct her there and then that JX ALWAYS looks destroyed. Lol.
E Maths Paper 2 was surprising easy; I was only unsure of a few questions. Let’s hope that paper 2 pulls up my grades! =X
After the paper, I guess everyone heaved a sigh of relief; at least we could have a short break. Went out with the 4H people to catch Ratatouille. The show was really good, lived up to the rave reviews that the critics were giving it. I’m not really a big fan of animation movies because I think they aren’t really worth the money. Do you guys know Chicken Little was only about an hour long? Shrek The Third was underwhelming as well.
Anyways, Ratatouille is set in Paris and it’s just gorgeously made into an animated landscape! The movie was overall endearing, funny, and heart-warming. A movie of such gastronomical proportions whet my appetite and made me find rats adorable! Haha. I give it a 4/5!
After the movie we made our way back to Plaza Sing. We had seen a notice earlier about Aaron Kwok arriving at about 7 for his autograph session and since our movie ended around that time, we made our way over from The Cathay. We stood at the side at the back of the crowd and after a few moments, Aaron Kwok appeared with a group of bodyguards surrounding him. He was looking down and shielding his face… ahh, couldn’t get a glimpse of him up close, oh well.
There was quite a big crowd and mostly he was just talking and talking about his concert. The emcee was rather annoying ‘cause she keep giggling and teasing the fans but hey, I guess that’s her job.
And then they just talked and talked so we listened for a bit and made our way home. After all, he appeals more to the “auntie crowd” so we weren’t really interested in getting his autograph or picture.
Ok, pictures! Thanks to Wei Jie for taking them!
Aaron Kwok amongst rabid, screaming fans and aunties!
Um, I like his clothes!
For all you HSM fans out there! Especially Grabriella fans!
There's a Disney exhibition at PS.
While checking out some HSM merchandise, I pointed at Ashley Tisdale and commented,
"I see the nose... where is she?"
And earned myself a slap from self-professed fan Vincent.
Touché.
But it's true!

Teachers' Day 2007
On Thursday, I was persuading everyone in class to come to school. I mean, it’s the last time we’ll be celebrating Teachers’ Day in VS, wouldn’t you want to be a part of it?
Well, I was glad most people bothered turning up on Friday so I was kinda happy about it. See, it wasn’t that boring right?
Went around giving gifts to teachers and taking pictures. It was nice to be appreciative through actions for this special day.
So we had class time for like a short 50 minutes? Which was kinda pathetic cos we wasted almost an hour in the hall waited for the performance to start. The dedication videos were made quite sweetly, I’m sure the classes that spent time doing the videos had a fun time filming it. Most of the videos induced laughter and how every teacher always gave their best for us, no matter how much they had to give. That is definitely what a great teacher is about.
After all the videos and performances, we had this little presentation ceremony that awarded titles to teachers. Ms Raksha won the “Best Hairstyle Award” Congratulations!
I shudder at the thought for this is the last Teachers’ Day in VS… Next year, I’ll need to travel all the way back to VS to see all the teachers again. Meeting all my classmates, teachers, everyone again. Ahh, so emotional thinking about this.
I bought a small gift for Ms Tang, which is a small ornament with an apple, book, a pen and a whistle. And it had a little message that says “Teachers pass on seeds of knowledge that last forever.” That is so true…
We had this mini celebration with Ms Tang and I was a little late so I missed what happened between Ms Tang and Ren An. Apparently he smashed cake in her face and she did the same. When I went down to the PSB room, there was chocolate cake strewn all over the floor outside. It was revenge as Ms Tang had smashed cake in Ren An’s face during his birthday. Haha.
Teachers’ Day 2007 will definitely bring back fond memories and I will be back next year to say hi and wish all the teachers a Happy Teacher’s Day. This bitter sweetness will last for quite a while in me… 
Rayson got Mr Munir an "iDom" after suggestions from us.
3 condoms + 1 Seductive CD.
He says he wouldn't use it though, 'cos he says,
"I'm a good boy."
Right.
Helped Javin take pictures with the teachers.
His mum is so generous, she got them handbags and watches.
Aww.
Mrs Setho, smile!
Mrs Peh and Mdm Teo!
4C with their little gathering with the teachers!
I kaypoh-ed and watched their little performance for the teachers!
Lol, was it hilarious when they teased the teachers!
Sinful cakes! Yum.
Ms Tang thanking everyone before proceeding to cut the cake while we sing her a Happy Teachers' Day song! (:
Linus must be enjoying the sinful chocolate fudge cake...
Ms Tang too.
Ms Tang relented and finally let me take a picture with her after I convinced her she looked alright!
Pretty in pink!
Was shocked when I saw Liew Xun and Jont Pung.
Haven't seen them in ages!
We actually managed to chat quite a bit after so long!
Qamarul joined in the picture.
We used to be classmates in Sec 2. Yups.
Hans the cam 'ho! Why did I take them? I have no idea why!
Ms Tang says she looked terrible and shielded her face.
Hans just had to get in the picture!
Haha.
Happy Teachers' Day to all the teachers in the world!
You guys deserve it!
=)
Hail Mary.
