Can't believe i'm updating the blog when i should be catching up on holiday homework. oh well, when you have no mood then it's pointless to force it. first day of school was quite eventful, met nearly all my new teachers. physics teacher is still the same as last year, mr lim, which i guess means another year of enduring him talking about us being a "stream" class and whatnot, and using that as an excuse to throw out-of-syllabus stuff at us. oh well, it gets irritating but he's still a very good teacher overall.
chemistry teacher is mr low, and my first impression suggests that he should be quite a good teacher. still not sure if this will make up for the fact that ms darshini is on maternity leave, she was a great teacher :(
econs teacher is mrs hue, i think i vaguely remember mr hussain telling us last year that she's a good teacher, and she seems quite good from first impressions, though i suppose this means i'll actually have to start doing econs homework and not just procrastinating until it's forgotten like what i did last year.
maths teacher is mr chew, who has a really unique teaching style, to say the least... he talks to us under the (almost certainly incorrect) presumption that the topic is way too easy for us and we're all just waiting for him to skip all the easy questions and go straight to the one or two more challenging problems. if he asks who doesnt know how to do a question and only one person raises his/her hand, he will literally grab a chair, sit next to him/her and go through the question for the next 5min or so, leaving the rest of the class to sit and stone around. i guess that's good in its own way, but it will definitely take some getting used to.
gp lesson today was an absolutely bizzare experience for me today. half the time i was busy picking my jaw off the floor from all the WTH moments going on. my gp teacher, ms chua (HOD of english), speaks and acts like a real-life willy wonka from the chocolate factory. the first question she posed us was "what do you think of the colour of this wall?" and the weirdness was only just beginning. i have a feeling that gone are the days of stoning during gp with ms wan; things are gonna be far more interesting this year, for better or worse.
after school went to the library with nigel and panyu to try and do homework, though i got barely anything done before i had to go off for O1 walk-in practice. yicen added another dance, and the most retarded by far. have any of you heard of a song called Ring Ding Dong? cos seriously from wat i know, only three people (yicen, zhaoming and valerie) have even heard of it, and the dance is so idiotic that even with all the thick skin i managed to summon to become an ogl i still cant bear to be seen dancing it in public. i mean, it's a song about a telephone ringing, but telephones dont even go ring ding dong, they go ring ring, idiot k-pop boybands. and the dance consists, in part, of walking around like a poser, pelvic thrusts MJ-style, and neck spasms at the chorus (ring ding ding ding ding ding ding ding... they should totally get some award for creativity of lyrics, shouldnt they? -.-)
chinese and pe tmr, which will mean that i'll have officially met all my teachers. have yet to have a proper lesson with my CT, ms kaur... i understand she's quite "well-known" in her own right, and i have been the target of her fury once before (and that was just for "obstructing the pathway" by standing in front of the staff room... imagine if she was angry over and actual issue), so that's something im not really looking forward to :X
looking to the left, then looking to the right... is there a problem, or am i just imagining things? im not the only one seeing these images; what if they turn out to be more than just illusions? im not in a position to probe, but this private issue could culminate in a very public outburst, possibly leaving a crater too wide for anyone to cross...
