Okay okay I wanna post about today first then I'll put up the photos of yesterday. If I have the patience to.
[We interrupt this blogpost to bring you a special announcement. 6-15'06ers are now officially SEXYSIXFIFTEENERS! So put it on your pm TODAY! Cos we're bringing sexyback, yeah!]
Mm okay. Woke up at like 6:45am and showered. Haha I rarely ever shower in the mornings, its too cold. Plus I usually wake up too late. Then ate breakfast and stoned around until about 7:30. Helped mummy paint her nails. My blazer is super ill-fitting can, I look DAMN fat in it. I need M size cos otherwise the arms are too short, but M is for fat people. Like chunkies. RAWR. Bleh but I had to keep it on.
At about 7:55am my dad drove me to school. WHY OH WHY DID I NOT GET A ROSYTH CAR LABEL. WE COULD HAVE PARKED INSIDE, DAMMIT. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. Oh well. Mmm then I went on a schoolwide search for Mdm Norlela, whom I was supposed to meet at the car porch, but was nowhere in sight. -.-" So I asked Cikgu Zainal, who asked the office people, who didn't know. So we went up to the hall. She wasn't there and Cikgu Zainal went off to find her. Stoned there for awhile and felt really awkward, cos some parents were coming in already and they were looking at me and obviously thinking: "Someone's in the wrong school..." Then I saw our wunnerful hulaoshi and I went up to her, and she told me I should have stayed put at the car porch. Oops. But she hadn't seen Mdm Norlela either. And just at THAT moment, Mdm Norlela came. Yay. So she dragged me to the Learning Centre, we rehearsed my speech. She warned me to speak slower and louder, cos the Rosyth PA is screwy.
(But of course, now that Crys, Rennuka and I aren't there to manage it :D)
Yeah okay so after that we went to the Music Studio for foooood. I didn't eat lar, too paiseh to. Basically we just sat there and talked to each other, "we" being Mr Vijaykumar Rai, Mrs Joanna Wong, Mr Peter Tan (I think), Ms Sabariah, and Mavis. Oh and me. I got served soyabean. SERVED LEH. BY MRS LEE KENG YOKE. Shiok xD I was never treated that well before okay!
Ahah then at 9, we got ready to go to the hall. Ms Sabariah was nice, she let me walk in front of her. Hehehe so I walked in with the rest of the VIPs. :D And then when we walked in everyone was like "WOOOOOOOOH" *clapclapclapclapclap* cos Mrs Toh had said something like "Will everyone rise to welcome the GOH?" Ahahhahahaha.
Then we sang the National Anthem, said the pledge, sang the school song (yes I still can remember it!) and sat down. Then Mr Rai, Mrs Wong, Mr Tan, Ms Sabariah and Mavis got invited up on stage so I sat there and hoboed D: Poor vicky. My parents were supposed to be in the front row also but the ushers just put them somewhere far behind.
Okay then it was Mavis's speech. At first we were worried that my speech would be longer than Mavis's but it was okay, cos her's went on for 25 minutes. Mr Rai's was imba short though, 3 minutes only!!! Waliao. So mine had to be longer than his, no choice. Bleh but Mavis's one was really really really really long. 5 times the original allocated time. So because of that my speech seemed to be very very very short.
They gave out all the prizes, then they gave out Vanessa Tey's and mine. Yay. They took super long to introduce me, so I ended up standing there paiseh-ly. The emcee got my name correct the first few times. Haha Mr Rai was nice.
After I went off the stage (which took quite long cos alot of people wanted a photo of me somehow -.-) they were still continuing with their eulogy about me (Is this appropriate? Somehow I keep thinking that "eulogy" is used only in the dead-people sense.) and I was kinda paiseh. Cos we didn't have a rehearsal for this, so I didn't know what I was supposed to do. Eeks then the emcee invited me to go up and say my speech, and at that exact moment a teacher took away the black file with my speech in it (which I'd left on the podium) and brought it behind the curtains. It didn't help that the emcee got my surname wrong all of a sudden. Like okay first few times correct all Yeow Yeow Yeow then suddenly "Let's invite YEO Pei Zhuang to come onstage!" WALAO EH.
My surname has a W behind! WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.
There was abit of confusion at first, I was looking for my speech behind the curtains. Rarr why did that teacher have to take it away! Yeah but then after that it all went quite well. I made sure not to talk too fast, and I tried to put all the correct emphasises =D It was abit hard, cos the microphone was blocking part of my script, but it turned out okay. And ohemgee suddenly halfway when I was thanking our dear teachers, quite alot of people applauded for me. It wasn't even the end yet xD So I think it went real well =D Ms Sabariah told me when I went down that it was a "great speech. Really great and meaningful." And I think she meant it. =)
The concert was nice. The band played "The Cup of Life", yet another Ricky Martin song. Last year they also played Ricky Martin haha. I bet next year they'll play "She Bangs" and then Mr Z will stand up and poledance again! (btw, Mr Z got an award for 10 years of service to Rosyth! Gratz!) I liked the choir though, their second song was super cute. Heh the dance was nice too. Wesley's sister was dancing haha I saw her! She was like almost just in front of me. One of the perks of sitting in the front row =) Their first song was nice too, it was about a farmer called Hans who lived on a farm with 3 black cats or something like that. However I just can't work out how 3 cats can have 5 eyes. Oh well. 3x2=5! Now why didn't I know that...
Oh the choir pianist is a freaking child genius. Seriously he plays the piano better than me. And he's technically P2 but he got accelerated to P3. amg. Yes this information was courtesy of Ms Sabariah.
Okay yay reception time! We got to leave first, that was funnnnnn. We went to the RITZ and gosh the tables there were covered with tablecloths and there was this little tealight in the middle of it, with flower petals and leaves arranged in a nice pattern. And there was like OH-SO-MUCH food. After that all the teachers started coming in and I decided to go kachiow people at the canteen. Ahahahaahaha. On the way out I bumped into wulaoshi. The following convo has been translated.
Me: HELLO WULAOSHI DO YOU STILL REMEMBER ME?
Wulaoshi: *slaps my shoulder* Of course la! I'll remember you forever yeowpeizhuang! (uh oh. I hope this means she has a good impression of me) More like YOU don't remember me already la!
Me: *drama voice* How could I ever forget you!
Wulaoshi: Oh good speech just now,
Me: Haha thankyou!
Wulaoshi: By the way, where's Glendon? (ohh this is where it gets damn embarrassing. She's tricky, yes you are, our dear wulaoshi!)
Me: Uh he didn't come... no invitation.
Wulaoshi: Wesley leh?
Me: I think he's in the canteen?
Wulaoshi: Orhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. *gives me that kind of look.*
Me: WTH! :O
Really WTH can! Gosh NOW I know what teachers do in their free time!
(For the record, he came because his sister was first in class and best in english or something.)
Then at the canteen, I went to disturb Nicholas Neo, and his mum told me that my speech was nice =D Yay. I saw the disturbing dead bird again, and I asked him if it was real. He replied in his usual cute way "NO LA!"
Haha then Emily came up to me and said "hi", so I chen ji hui to tell her that her performance was really great. Then I went to kachiow Vernetta =) She also said my speech was nice. Her grandma was there too! After that I think Wesley's mum came to talk to me, she said that my speech was pretty good but it was a little muffled. Whoops.
Went back down to the RITZ, saw Mrs Koh YY, Mrs Lim and Ms Lim sitting at a table. I went over to kachiow them =D After all the "how's RGS" and "nice speech" and "gratz" and all, they started discussing something I was totally shocked by =D
Mrs Koh asked me if I was in anyone's class so I gave her all our classes. Then she was all "hmm. Rachel. Rachel Yohannan. Does she still keep in contact with anyone from RI? Any SPECIFIC someone?"
Ms Lim: Who? Jay issit?
Mrs Koh: NO. You know who I'm talking about!!!
Ms Lim: Not Jay meh?
Mrs Lim & I: Huh since when their batch/our batch got a Jay?
Mrs Koh: It's not Jay lar, it's ET.
Me: Yeah it's Edward.
Ms Lim: HUH ITS EDWARD MEH? NOT JAY?
Me: No what our batch no Jay!
Ms Lim: Jay is Justin lar! (oh okay she meant J)
Mrs Koh: No lars it's EDWARD TAN LAR.
Mrs Lim: Oh okay so what happened to them?
Me: Huh oh they just broke up.
Ms Lim: JUST?!?!?!?!
Mrs Koh: Aiyo. So sad. It was so obvious she liked him mah whole day run from one class to his class...
Mrs Lim: But why did they break up?
Me: Um I think their parents found out or something..
Teachers: AIYO. WASTED LEH.
Ms Lim: I always thought she was with J! (she means Justin)
Mrs Koh: Nahh J was never very popular with the girls from P5 onwards... (so right man!)
Ms Lim: Then J was with her? *points at me*
Me: NONONONONONONONONOONO....
Mrs Koh: No lar Victoria wasn't with J. (phew... absolved of all blame xD well I mean I technically wasn't.)
Ms Lim: Hmm. But I know J liked Victoria.
Mrs Koh: Hah Victoria has good taste why would she be with him?
Mrs Lim: Haha I have to agree.
Ms Lim: Yeah but J also has good taste.
Me: *looks kind of paisehed*
Ms Lim: Oh oh oh I still remember that couple I brought together. GG and GC.
Mrs Koh: Ahh yes. Victoria what happened to them?
Mrs Lim: Did they become bf and gf?
Me: Uhh well I'm not sure but I heard that Glendon likes Tessa AND Gloria.
Teachers: *slap table* WALAO.
*Mrs Teo joins us*
Ms Lim: Gloria better not choose such a guy eh.
Mrs Lim: I don't know... Tessa can stand Glendon meh? I always thought Gloria was the only person able to stand Glendon.
Mrs Koh: Yes yes she's practically the ONLY person who can tolerate him! xD
Ms Lim: Yeah that's why I was telling them in P4, might as well hurry up and get married since Gloria is the only one who can tolerate you.
Mrs Koh: Haha okay Victoria anymore JUICY STORIES?
Me: Lol! Uhh Mrs Teo what are you doing?
*Mrs Teo was holding up a leaf from the table arrangement to the tealight*
Mrs Teo: Experimenting.
Mrs Lim: Wait you set the whole school on fire.
Mrs Koh: I don't think it'll burn, the leaf is too wet.
Me: How about a flower petal?
Ms Lim: Okay you put.
Me: Uh nono you put :D
Mrs Koh: No you should put... cos skarli we burn the school down we don't have an excuse. You have an excuse. Plus you can't go to jail, you're a minor.
Ms Lim: Yeah you'll just get counselling, your parents will get counselling, and that's all.
*Mrs Teo picks up a small petal and throws it into the flame.*
Me: Mrs Teo, try that one. *points to a largish petal*
Mrs Teo: This one? Okay. *picks it up and holds it to the flame, which edges away from the petal*
Mrs Koh: Haha, fire doesn't like flowers.
Mrs Lim: Umm okay I gotta go off first. Buhbye.
*Mrs Teo succeeds in getting the petal into the flame and a burning smell fills the room*
Ms Lim: Eww Aunty Theresa that stinks!
Mrs Koh: Isn't it MOTHER Theresa?
*Mrs Koh picks up a leaf and puts it into the flame. A stinky smell fills the room again.*
Mrs Koh: Ooh look. *holds up the leaf and shows us how it's glowing red at the sides*
Ms Lim: I'm not a Science teacher. I am an ENGLISH teacher. This room is filled with a STENCH.
Mrs Teo: *mumbles something about Samuel's "one silent clap!" yesterday and she and Mrs Koh burst out laughing*
Me: Oh Samuel. Haha!
Ms Lim: Yeah that guy is a natural...
Me: Mmm yeah I remember yesterday he and Wesley were comparing who was sicker.
Mrs Koh: OF COURSE SAMUEL LA.
Me: Actually I think Wesley won xD
Mrs Koh: WHAT??? THE GOODY TWO SHOES WESLEY? (her words, not mine.)
Me: Now he not guai ler....
Mrs Koh: BUT HE USED TO BE SO GUAI AND GOODY GOODY WHAT.... HOW CAN HE BE SICK???
Me: Glendon's been sickified too. Blame Hwachong
Mrs Koh: Must tell his mother ler...
After that they started comparing stories about our batch and their batch (we were sooooo much more interesting :D) and then I asked Mrs Koh for her email. She asked me if I used yahoo messenger.
Me: Umm no I msn =)
Mrs Koh: Oh. I use yahoo messenger all the time in school. Then I go back home and MSN =D By the way dya know how to use Friendster?
Ms Lim: DUH WHO DOESN'T? Do you know facebook?
*a discussion about friendster and facebook starts*
Haha okay to cut a long story short, I showed Mrs Koh how to use Friendster in her office. =) Heh.
Okay I don't think I'll post pictures today, the scrolling thingy at my scrolling bar has already reached the smallest it can go. Whoops.
