the jellyfish is back. Today is another cloudy and cooling day. =) I am going to blog about speech day. The activities and all the other stuff. Oh ya, and also a funny kind of evaluation.
But before that, I will have to congratulate myself on getting the best in elementary mathematics. :-) this is seriously a very remarkable achievement to me. (am I being thick-skin?)
Today, 28th July 2006.
7.40am – go to school as usual.
9.40am – dry run? With MAY, and she briefed so many things… and by the time she finished, she said a sentence, “good, we will start now.”
Excuse me? I thought we started already…
So we carried on, all the usual procedures and crap. And finally at about 10.55am, things we were done and we were dismissed. :D
11am – went to the fish farm with my parents.
12pm – lunch
1.20pm – short nap
2.10pm – woke up. Prepared stuff.
2.55pm – reached school.
3.10pm – went hall and settled down.
Then all the testings and mendings. We saw a film, dunno what memories of 2005. with all the usual photographs and two songs, <> and <>. Seriously tired of photographs.
4+ the ceremony started.
With mrs ong coming up on stage, and this is where the comedies of errors come.
1. the starting of her is already wrong. She said, “good morning.” Um, I think the time is in the afternoon…
2. the powerpoint isn’t loaded fully, that means she isn’t really prepared.
3. she said too much irrelevant issues during the time when she is waiting for the powerpoint to be loaded.
And it goes smoothly for a while. And I spot one mistake which to me is quite major.
During the parts of the uniform group, we saw all the parts where so many uniform groups got gold. And she said, “it is like so many uniform groups got a gold..” for a moment, I thought she wanted to say it is very normal. But who knows, it comes to a slide where the scouts got silver only. Then she changed her sentence, it becomes, “it is like so many uniform groups got a gold and, (the scouts slide), and you can see that it is the first time the scouts got a silver and it is not easy to get gold.”
See the contradiction? :-)
The rest are quite ok…
Then we have the GOH’s speech and it was boring. Except for his little joke, just pretend to be very interested in my speech.
Actually, his speech is better than I had expected. At least it is not so long winded like some people who can speak so long for like 40minutes. =)
Finally, it is the time I went up on stage… , obviously. Basically, I wasn’t even concentrating on where I was going. My prize is a big envelope, quite nervous. o.O
Then sat down, and watched the rest of the performance.
- nothing interesting in the middle -
at the end, when we sang the school song, the sound system got lots of problem (>.<). So the choir was very messed up… then dismissed, went down reception, met my parents, ate dinner (fried rice, brownies, spring rolls), then it is home sweet home, bathe and blogging. No form of any celebrations at home. =) so, gradings for today! Food: 5/10 Performance: 6.5/10 School in the morning: 6/10 Happiness with prize: 8.5/10 Speech day overall: 6/10 Total: 32/50 B4 hahax.. Should I reveal what is my prize? =)
Basically, that is the end of everything. (sigh) tonight is another cooling and peaceful night.
Bye bye! (jellyfish swimming in the ocean again.)
