Yearbook 2009
Friday, May 15, 2009 @ 2:11 AM
Just a short post to mention that I have too received my Republic Polytechnic Yearbook. Not today, of course. But on 12th May :X (I know, I know... Late post!! Have been busy with AuditionSEA and other miscellaneous stuffs.) So here is it!
Closer zoom up on me in the picture :D
Back then, I still have my long hair...... *weeps*
Well, I do not have any feelings for this yearbook at all, unlike my secondary school ones. Seems meaningless and does not hold any memories except for the school picture (points above). Other than that, it's nothing. I'm not in any official IG (something like CCA in secondary school). The IG that I'm in is an unofficial one, the Anime IG. Thus after we graduated from Republic Polytechnic, the Anime IG too, ceased to exist. T_T~~~~~~~~~ *mourns*

:+ Lyrids Star Party +:
Monday, April 20, 2009 @ 4:37 PM
::18th Apr 09::
I registered for the Lyrids Star Party! It's a meteor shower/stars grazing activity hosted by RP, went there together with Johnatton and Moo. Reached RP at 3pm and head to the E2 lecture theater to watch two videos from History Channel, "Astrobiology" and "Mysteries of the moon". I have to admit... I slept through both of the videos!!! xD! There was also a talk given by someone from the Science Centre but... I only attended the last part of it :X Because I was outside eating and chatting with the Astronomy IG people.
After this, we boarded the bus to East Coast Park. They led us to East Coast Park Area D and welcomed us to there :\ The Astronomy IG started setting up the equipments like telescopes there while the rest of us went to get our dinner. Wandered about looking for food and ended up eating ice cream xD! Shared with Johnatton, though I didn't eat much. Too sweet
Went back to Area D. And woah... it's definitely dark there! And I could finally see the beautiful stars above... It was awesome. Moo explained and pointed out the constellations and of course, the planet Saturn! I really didn't expect to see it through the telescope. I thought it would be too far away to see it. But nothing beats the telescope O_O! I saw Orion the hunter constellation, Scorpio constellation, Gemini constellation, Southern Cross, Jewelbox, Orion's Nebula and maybe a few others. I went to lie down on the mat because my neck got tired of looking upwards. Moo and Johnatton lay down beside me too. We continued to stargaze and looking out for meteors, of course!! Johnatton saw one ahead of me :(
The meteors will be around the constellation "Lyra" which rise at about 1am. That's why the meteor shower is called Lyrids, name after Lyra. Thus the peak of the shower is at 1am. The time where there are more chances to see a meteor. Meteors are pretty hard to see. Like Moo always say, "It's like a waiting game." 15 meteors per hour, moreover the sky is so big! And I'm not going to stay overnight there.
So I waited... and finally I saw one. I think I saw one. It was bright and it moved really quickly like a short bright line across the sky. So... I supposed that's a meteor. But I'm glad happy that I saw one and we can go home already!~ Left at 10.50pm with Johnatton, and Moo accompanied us to the bus stop. Took a bus to Suntec City and a MRT to Redhill.
When I reached the Redhill station, it's already 12midnight! No more buses for me :( So I have to walked home alone. Accompanied by Moo's text messages (Thank you!), I walked for an hour and I reached home at 1am! T_T!~ But I really enjoyed the Lyrids Star Party! I learnt a lot from Moo Sensei :D *claps claps claps* Now picture time.
My star necklace :D Purposely wore for the event :X
Moo setting up and adjusting the telescope.
Saturn! I took this picture through the telescope :)
Same way as you take a picture of cells through the microscope.
You can even see the ring around it! AWESOME!
Johnatton's attempt to take picture of the lightning.
I failed. I couldn't take a picture of it. MISSED!
Light sticks were given out :) I love the pink one a lot.
Them.
The millipede I found while walking home.
Oh ya! I moved two snails off the walkway as well :)
The ladybug is still in my house!!! It's like 4 days already...

Next day, I have to meet up with ahsie and Xue Ni at Jurong Point at 10.30am. I was an hour late! Sorry ahsie!!!! Xue Ni reached at around 2pm, though :X So ahsie and I decided to buy the cross stitching materials first. And started stitching while waiting for Xue Ni to arrive. ahsie will be stitching a Ditto, Xue Ni a Munchlax and Snorlax, and me a Mudkip. I spent around $19 for the materials.
ahsie had to go home after that, while Xue Ni and I went to eat at MOS Burger. Discussed where to go after that. Finally decided to go to Bukit Merah Central to print her Munchlax/Snorlax pattern out at HQ Comic store and settled down at the McDonald to start our cross stitches! :D
We cross stitched from 5pm to 12.40am. Pretty impressive, right? Our dinner were only fries and ice cream. I enjoyed eavesdropping on anyone around me. Well... I can't be only concentrating on my cross stitch. I must do something else also! Anyway, we had to walk home after that as there were no more buses operating. I reached home at 1am+ and got a scolding from my mama. Thank you Moo for accompanying me home with your call. It was pretty scary to walk home alone ._.

With this many threads, I think I can make like 20 Mudkips!
What Xue Ni has done so far.
What I have done so far.
Anyway... I'm about to complete the Mudkip stitch~~ And pass it to him! :D

The letter and photo
Thursday, April 16, 2009 @ 9:53 PM
"Manger to Candybar." BeeYan walkied.
"Yes?" I replied.
"Come to the office now. Get Puikwan and Kelvin as well."
"Okay."
We all went into the office and BeeYan handed us each an envelope. Haha. Just as I have expected... a pay raise! Not much... But it's still a raise. The letter was to confirm and upgrade us to regular part-time cinema service crew.
Us and our letters :)
And... I also have received my Graduation Ceremony photos that I have ordered that day.
$5 for a two 5R Stage photos (one full length shot and one closed up shot)

+: Graduation Ceremony :+
Thursday, April 09, 2009 @ 6:55 PM
::7th Apr 09::
The day has finally arrived. The day where I'm no longer a student anymore. The day I will receive my diploma certificate. Heh! And I'm not feeling any different either! :X
In formal attire :)
The registration time was 12.30noon to 1pm. And we reached like approximately 1.10pm. Pretty late, eh? :X Since WeiLeng, Shuhua and ahsie's parents have not arrived yet, we spent another 10mins disposing our bags with Joshua's parents! (Yay! Thank you so much!) Well for me, I'm alone with no guests to view my graduation at all.
After registering and putting on our robes, we assembled at the dance studio for a short briefing. My queue number is 25, while the rest were so much further behind :( One of the first to go up the stage to receive the certificate. All of us looked like priests and students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry xD
Next, we proceeded in a single filed into the theatre and filled up the seats there. Waited anxiously for the ceremony to start. We were then guided row by row to the backstage and when my name was finally called, I walked across the stage to receive my certificate. The only thing was... the announcer pronounced my name wrongly! Especially my chinese name... as Shitting! Shit her lah! I glared at her before walking across the stage. I was furious. I guess it was shown on the screen above :X Because all of my friends were telling me how angry/fierce I looked on stage. But~~ Luckily I didn't trip and fall down flat on my face! It will be so embarrassing and funny!! xD!!
Went back to my seat after that and watched the other graduands of the Biomedical Sciences stream received their certificates as well. After awhile, it got pretty boring. So I slept throughout the whole ceremony and only waking up to clap for people I know :) Congratulations to Shuhua for getting distinction, to Johnatton for getting distinction as well plus module award winner for Genomics, ahsie for receiving her Advance Diploma in Pharmacy Practice and of course, to everyone else who passed and graduated from Republic Polytechnic!! :D It has been a long 3 years. Though... it didn't seem that long to me :\
After everything has ended and everyone was dismissed, we all met up in front of the TRCC and head to the South Agora for payment of the photographs, collection of our bags from Joshua's parents (Thank you again!!) and for refreshments as well. I didn't eat anything from there. Was busy... TAKING PICTURES WITH EVERYONE I KNOW! ;) So... you know what to expect now... PICTURE SPAM!! xD!

So much fun taking pictures with my friends. Although some of them I might not see you anymore, but I'll try my best to remember you guys!!! Blehx. I have totally no confidence in myself. My memory is horrible. So yea... hopefully I can remember all of you~ Lol! Notice that my clothes are getting lesser and lesser formal? :X Graduation attire to formal wear to informal wear. Anyway, I think I look good wearing a tie!!! :D Motive of the day was completed! Mission accomplished! I'm like overjoyed!!~
I ended the day by having dinner at Pastamania with Joshua, WeiLeng and ahsie. Shared a meat lover pizza with ahsie :) Then I took the bus 963 with Joshua home. He alighted the bus after 1/3 of the journey, while I continued sitting there for an hour or so.

So here is my diploma certificate! And of course, my name wasn't printed like that. Don't be silly :X I just edited it for the fun of it :)
My parents didn't even ask me to show it to them... This shows they don't care at all... T_T~
Lastly, thank you Johnatton for this perler beads Caterpie and Mario star!
I looooove them! :D
This just came in my email. A congrats from RP! xD!
