Latest Update on Labour Day Reunion!

After recieving several valuable feedback regarding our decisions on the class gathering from Connie, Siok Ting, Evelyn, Jun Guang, Tristan, Jori, Yun Kai, Quan You and Mery, we have decided to make modifications to the plans to make sure that everyone will have an enjoyable time at the gathering and reduce financial depression as well as maknig sure that most of us will enjoy the food and the menu.

We tried to brainstorm as many restaurants as well as get feedback from as many 4E1-ers online as possible.

Yup, so the final decision is Billy Bombers at the Heeren near Somerset. Meet at 4.30 pm!

Hope to see everyone there! (:

Here's some excerpts from today's summit:

30th of April Class Gathering

Hey its about Six days away from our Labour Day 4E1 Gathering! =D

And we have made some progress on our gathering plans at last!

But first, I will like to thank everyone who made suggestions for the gathering (: as well as everyone who responded and provided constructive criticism (:

Back to the gathering plans, after sometime on MSN.
and checking the budget as well as quality through food reviews and friends, we have decided on Marche at the Heeren (:

I felt that its the best compromise between budget and quality, and it is able to accomodate the class in a common area unlike Sakae where we may have to be seperated. Besides, Marche has a wider variety of food and it has a better environment than Marina Bay. Last but not least, its located at Orchard with more venues of entertainment compared to Marina Bay or Suntec Marche.

The actual gathering would start around the afternoon where we head to Sentosa for some kayaking, sun-tanning, frisbee, volleyball or sandcastles at Siloso Beach. After a hot and shocking day, its surely a nice idea to reward yourself with nice food at Marche?

Activities before Afternoon or Dinner is impromptu (:

Hope to see everyone there! For Poly ppl, a big bang for the beginning of school, for JC ppl, a big bang before the Mid-Year of A'Levels (:

If you have financial problems please really respond! If you go hungry, I shall go hungry with you!

Food!

Lets have Sakae Sushi! Sushi buffer for lunch? I have a sudden craving for Sakae Sushi! Fried Tofu is nice! So is Octopus! Steam Boat is economical but some complain about the environment and some say its so sianz because almost every birthday or class outing is Marina Bay Steamboat....


Marchie is so expensive!

Swensens.....so-so

Thai Express, Pineapple Rice (:

Seoul Garden, you can forget about it! So expensive and serves soggy ice cream and yucky food.

Balestier Hill Coffeeshop, quaint and unique, but......

Pizza Hut is nice too! (:

Swensens food....

Self Amusing Ways (SAW)

I'm a SAC ( Self Amusing Creature) and I found that pretty amusing until I realised that Xin Li you're a I-A (Idea Amuser).

WHY do I say so?

First idea : That's like saying you all stay at home ah, I shall take bus to EACH and EVERY single one of your houses to pick you all up and we shall go pick other people up and HOPEFULLY deciding what to do after that, IF I don't have to go home after picking everyone up and we can all merrily repeat the entire cycle with everyone sending everyone home!

SO FUN.
Like a ridiculous merry go round.

Second idea : Mass crashing.
1st 3 months has ended and NOBODY in any JC/poly is in their sec sch uniform still, if they are, show me the pictures of these backward creatures and let me have a good laugh at them.
As such, it's almost NEAR impossible for ALL THIRTY PLUS of us to get into any JC in outside clothes/current uniforms without being caught by the school security.

A possible method to overcome this would be for all of us to buy uniforms of that JC we're visiting or to crash a poly on a normal school day without anyone noticing all the strange and unfamiliar expressions on all THIRTY PLUS of our faces.
Take that method, times about 5 JCs and 5 polys.

Feasibility : NON-EXISTENT.

Third idea : Visitation to some abandoned and ulu place.

There are people in 4e1 who have curfews to follow and fears to reassure.
Also, what's so amusing about looking for 'things' that don't exist or aren't very friendly ?
Not to mention, to carry out the above activity, unless we're planning to TON alllllllllll the way or walk alllllll the way home, we'd have to spend LOTS of MOOLA (money) on travel!

Feasibility : No where near existence.

Fourth idea : PALAWAN , SENTOSA.

YES! We're somewhere near civilization without spending too much MOOLA on travel and sunny! Don't know about you peeps, but I don't really fancy getting wet after my not-too-long ago handphone swimming incident. *shudders*


Fifth idea : Back to OLD School! (literally)

I MISS BHSS!
So yes, I fully support of this.
We could drop by BHSS for a while to catch up with our dearly beloved teachers before going to town or something to have dinner!

Simple, cheap(-er then the rest) ,entertaining and fun!

About the BHSS uniform. ERM. Technically ,since we've graduated from BHSS we're not really allowed to wear the BHSS uniform back to school. Not to mention, I don't really know what happened to my set of BHSS uniform~
haha~

Sixth idea : "get our poly friends to visit our JCs and JC friends to visit the polys".

Similar to the second idea so I shall simply touch on another point.

JC-POLY harmony day ah? (adapted from RACIAL HARMONY DAY.)

Why don't we all dress up like our peers in other JCs?
Guys wear JC skirts and vice versa. Jc people going to polys in their outside-school clothes and have a feel of whatever fashion freedom the polys have, which basically is just studying in the usual jeans -.-" .

Eat their canteen food no matter how much they suck (AJ food sucks, I'm VERY sure Krystelle agrees with me on this). While we're at it, why don't we learn each schools school songs and creeds/pledges too! Like SO FUN RIGHT?

Yes, words can't prove as much as experience, but do we all believe each other to be so narrow as to actually take that Redpony(screw up who thinks he's so above the poly students) asshole's words seriously?

Sure he used some pretty corrosive(but crude) language to insult our friends in polys, but why the insecurity that such tiny barks from such a smelly BITCH would stifle our friendships and bonds with each other?

Come on, it's gonna take SO MUCH more then that to arouse hatred among the JC-POLY population, what more the legendary BEYOND FREQUENCY, 4E1!

OK, Sorry Xin Li if I bruised the ego there abit, but I couldn't help it, I'm a SAC, and suaning just happened to be one of my self-amusing methods.
So yep, no hard feelings there kk???????????????

See ya peeps on the 30th! DIE DIE MUST GO!
:D

Ryan Chew

The one from Straits Times March 2006.....
By Caroline Chia - 12 March 2006
The Straits Times
Ryan Chew, 18,
Student Height: 1.72m
Weight: 65kg

Diet: I eat food that is high in protein, such as beef and chicken. I also take protein supplements. I watch my diet a little more closely when my canoeing competitions are round the corner. During that period, I do not eat pasta, fast food or take carbonated drinks. I do not snack much. Brownies (must be Krystelle's brownies!!) are my only indulgence, but I can easily work off those extra carbohydrates with my daily exercise.

Exercise: I canoe daily for two to four hours. My mother was the one who encouraged me to canoe six years ago. I used to be a lot chubbier. After developing a love for the sport and doing well at it, I am now addicted to canoeing. I also jog 5-10km three times weekly. A few times a week, I hit the gym to work on my biceps, chest and deltoids. I enjoy the sports I do. After a long day in school, I reward myself by heading to MacRitchie to canoe."

AJC Carnival

Our dear founding member of the Three-Ah Mahs' Society (TAMS), Krystelle have invited us to visit AJC's Carnival on the 22nd of April (Saturday) from 4pm - 9pm to have fun and support Krystelle and the o.O Benny!

So have fun there and remember our 30th April gathering!


Others:
I hope 4E1 won't split and conflict because of our school background like YJC vs AJC or JCs vs Polys, in my eyes all of you are capable and clever, but may not be in the same area and all of us are equal. And instead of discouraging others just because he's weak in your niche area, we should learn from each other. That should be spirit, learn and stay united.

Remember our Class Cheer?
"Hey.....Hey People! Yes You!
I want to let you know...who's the winner here..."

Every voice counts in the cheer, every decibel contributes to the final result.
