ndp preview pics from NDPeeps
pics taken from NDPeeps, a facebook page set up by the NDP 2013 committee.
reunion of tan ah teck (moses lim) and denise (vernetta lopez) of 'Under One Roof'
my big boss is the reviewing officer for the preview!
part of the dynamic defence display! pretty dramatic!
fighter planes doing crazy air defying stunts. they were super loud also and made quite a few babies cry. LOL.
NDP Preview
thanks to the workplace again, i got tickets to watch the ndp preview with darling!
(this picture is taken from google images)
on wednesday my colleague sent an email at 6.02 pm, saying that the workplace has 10 tickets to give to staff, and is on a first come first serve basis. i was in front of my laptop and saw that email and replied at 6.03 pm. after i emailed him i still dun feel safe and called him immediately. thank goodness i got the tickets! and i am shocked to know that i am not the first person who replied him! hahahahaha.
my favourite part of the whole ndp is the dynamic defence display. especially when the leopard tanks and bionix 2-man-turret arrive at the floating platform. makes me super proud that i am from armour!!!
this year's parade commander is also from armour. when i was still serving my national service in armour, i was in the armour road relay team. i was in the specialists' team, and the parade commander was in the officers' team. he was still a captain back then and now he is already a lieutenant colonel!
but come to think of it that was in 2003 and now is 2013! ten years have passed! omg...
the parade commander is in the lime green box. can you spot me? hahahahaha.

PASSION 2013
my arts assembly was held in conjunction with racial harmony day celebrations. all staff and students are encouraged to wear ethnic costumes to school!
the art & craft dept did a racial harmony doll village to showcase all the dolls made by staff and students.
can see my power ranger doll? hahahaha.
today i wore the batik shirt again. didnt want to wear the 夜宴 assassin costume because i wore it last year.
PASSION 2013 went well! the o school dancers did a guest performance as well as dance interaction with the students. they are really engaging and awesome.
PASSION 2013 ended with a finale, arranged by yours truly. :)
thank you to my hardworking and wonderful performers!
one of my favourite student performers. been performing for me during B2B in 2011, when she was still sec 2. now she is already sec 4 and is going to graduate! haiz time really flies. the B2B memories are still fresh in my head.

when you don't know shit
An
atheist was seated next to a little girl on an airplane and he turned to her and said, "Do you
want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow
passenger."
The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger, "What would you want to talk about?"
"Oh, I don't know," said the atheist. "How about why there is no God, or no Heaven or Hell, or no life after death?" as he smiled smugly.
"Okay," she said. "Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?"
The atheist, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea." To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss God, Heaven and Hell, or life after death, when you don't know shit?"
And then she went back to reading her book.

sunday post
finally i went to the temple at pasir ris to have the first drama workshop.
saw quite a number of people, of different ages, staying in different parts of singapore, from different walks of life. i totally respect the people who stay at woodlands and yio chu kang. travelling to and fro between their house and the temple is NO JOKE.
today i was amazed because the people are very professional. they really treat the drama workshop very seriously, and put in their best during showcase time. there was this uncle with a big pot belly who looked so ordinary, but once he was in his role (a triad chief), he was like WOWWWWW. i am humbled.
and then a 小插曲 happened. my role was a conman who was to con women to buy a magic stone to make them look good. initially my group already had 4 ladies for me to con, but the director want more ladies to be involved, so the director said:"来我找多几个女孩子给你骗。"
and because of my job as an educator and as a loving fiance to my fiancee, these words really did not strike well with me and i gave her a wassup look.
she noticed it and said to me:"你干嘛啊?!"
to be honest i was also a bit shocked by her reaction but thinking that she might have felt that i was rude, so i changed my wassup look to a pleasant look.
i just want to clarify that i really did not mean to be rude and i respect her as a director. *感恩*

mid-year work review
i feel like i am a student, flipping my report book to read what comments my form teacher wrote for me. hahahaha.
anyway here's what my boss wrote for me in the mid-year work review:
Y_ _ _ _ _ _ is a very hardworking and cheerful worker. Keep it up. A flexible officer who is always willing to give an extra hand if needed. His contribution to the performing arts as a coordinator and overseeing the organising of the concurrent Sec 2/3 in-house leadership workshop is greatly noticeable and valued.

xuehong's birthday celebration part 2!
birthday celebration part 2 was at fairmont!
mauritians + singaporeans! the uncle and auntie are foo shin's PILs. PIL = parents in-law
this time we have maceroons for xuehong's birthday cake. and how can we forget the samsung candle app.
presenting to xuehong his birthday present!
ta da! macbook air! contributed by 20 plus people!
can see the signatures? mr nzj did a 环岛追追追 to get them!
the 20 plus contributors. :)
super happy with his presents. 七情上面。
nuscd macho guys group photo!!! the sad thing is that all 5 of us never dance in the same item together! is always 5 missing hw (水袖), or 5 missing foo shin (fen's jia ren zi), or 5 missing nzj (清男).
the next morning we had breakfast at Prego. the breakfast buffet spread was wonderful! loved the eggs benedict and the fruit juice section! but it is a bit pricey though. the wonderful breakfast we had was spoilt by this horrendous staff whose name is rebecca when we were settling the bill. gave us the black face because we wanted to combine bills to get a better discount. nzj was so so so angry with her attitude.
i want to bring darling to Prego for breakfast next time! :)
