economics @ RJC
heres an interesting way to remember types of economies of scale =) --- FAST COBRA
Financial
Administrative
Specialisation and division of labour
Technical
Commercial
By-product
R&D and Risk-beAring
hehehe. hopefully thats helpful. actually, i was thinking about how to motivate myself to mug harder, faster and.. errm, even harder. then, it occured to me that mugging is analogous (to borrow lim boon siong's words) to playing WOW, or any RPG for that matter.
See, just think that u are actually playing a RPG when ur mugging. Every topic is like a new skill u can pick up, a new spell, or a new summon for a more powerful pet. Every page that u read increases ur exp in that skill, and when u finish reading every page in that set of notes then u can gain that skill. Of coz, all RPGs have to have an end objective right? So the A levels is like the final boss, like Diablo, that u have to kill to finish this damn game. and the only way u can kill him is to level up each of ur skills, hone them to perfection, and use them all in the final battle.
Else, if u fail ur mission, the only thing that will greet u is a GAME OVER screen. depressing right?
Hmm... that was quite random, but i cant bear to delete it.
Apparently, education is supposed to be a merit good. Inherently beneficial to the consumer, but may not be viewed as such by the individual. (yepz, its something along these lines, nothing to do wif society) hmm... im not feeling benefited by all this mugging. and the comments in the tagboard dont convince me others are benefiting either. =X. jay kay
But at the end of the day, whether u decide to mug ornot is inconsequential. Everyone mugs. its just the extent of ur mugging that will decide if u get a high score in this RPG ornot.
LOL. arguments for and against mugging. and synthesis even. gogo me. even when blogging i think about TAS structure.
i think im going crazee.

hasu's paper on relationtivity
since everyone is in the mood for love right now, i decided to post my take on what 6a means. and being a science class, what better way than to use equations to do it?
hasu's theory on relationtivity
26 x people = a class
a class - evil = a happy and loving class
a happy and loving class + amazing teachers = a fun, happy and loving class
a fun, happy and loving class + (retardness) ^ 26
= a mad, fun, happy and loving class
a mad, fun, happy and loving class
____________________________________ = 2S06A
nothing
2s06a + me = 1
*
hehe. thx to winfred for giving me inspiration for the last equation. and also...
*
hasu's theory on SPECIAL relationtivity
jilyn x gerbert = torque
*
26 x people = a class
a class - evil = a happy and loving class
a happy and loving class + amazing teachers = a fun, happy and loving class
a fun, happy and loving class + (retardness) ^ 26
= a mad, fun, happy and loving class
a mad, fun, happy and loving class
____________________________________ = 2S06A
nothing
2s06a + me = 1
*
hehe. thx to winfred for giving me inspiration for the last equation. and also...
*
hasu's theory on SPECIAL relationtivity
jilyn x gerbert = torque

if u dont get the last one, see here. read the fourth line.

Melodies of life....
Our paths they did cross, though I cannot say just why
We met, we laughed, we held on fast, and then we said goodbye
And who'll hear the echoes of stories never told?
Let them ring out loud till they unfold
It seems like only yesterday that the class met for the first time during the orientation, yet now it's less than a month away from the A's and for some, less than 2 months away from NS. 2 years came and went. "People gather, people part, but the memories are forever" (人聚人散，但回忆是永恒的.) the Chinese aptly puts it. I remember on my first day in RI, my form teacher then, Mr Jerry Ang(RI ppl should remember him as the D and T teacher) said to the class, " Whether you are here willingly or not does not matter, what matters is that now that you are here, you have a choice: To create good memories or bad memories."
A voice from the past, joining yours and mine
Adding up the layers of harmony
And so it goes, on and on
Melodies of life,
To the sky beyond the flying birds--forever and beyond
Looking back on the 2 years, I think the class really put in the effort to create good memories. Though through a layman's eyes we may not have achieved much (those boring statistics and figures of MSGs, percentage passes or those obscure inter-class competitions, ie. racial harmony day o_0), I guess it's the small things that count in the end. "We can do no great things, only small things with great love" (Mother Teresa) Perhaps face/pink clip/who are you jokes, the water bottle catfights, the "wrestling matches", the scissor-paper-stone clear plates routine may not count as small things with great love(for some of them, there is certainly no love lost), but undeniably, these are small things with the innocence that contrasted against the rest of the RJ environment and hence are forever etched in our memories. So, what defines our class? It's very hard to say what defines the class as ultimately, the class is defined by every one of us. I guess one of the reasons why I like our class is our ability to accept a person for who he or she is. We do not force people to conform to a certain "class image" but instead we engage the different aspects of every one to create a dynamic image that is truly representative of us.
So far and way, see the bird as it flies by
Gliding through the shadows of the clouds up in the sky
I've laid my memories and dreams upon those wings
Leave them now and see what tomorrow brings
As chem rep, I must say I had a wonderful time working with all of you. Though I often had to double up as physics rep *glares at lloyd* and at times the lack of initiative is rather appalling, I guess that's part of being a "happy and contented" class. I never did regret taking up the post and it was a great learning experience. My final words as chem rep would be spent nagging. No matter how happy and contented you are, please DO mug for chem. chem is not try, chem is mug. I think we owe Y2k something for all the efforts he had put into teaching us. I think teachers have the worst job in the world, you can't choose who to teach and yet you are fully responsible for how the student turns out. I believe all of you have seen Mr Yeo's dedication and passion for teaching and A levels is our last chance of doing something for him. So, let's try not disappoint him, k?
Melodies of life
Come circle round and grow deep in our hearts
As long as we remember
Finally, I just want to thank every single one of you who has in one way or another, made a difference to my journey in RJ. All of us would moving off in different directions after the A's but we would always be connected, by an invisible thread linking up those who keep 06S06A in their hearts. We may meet again, we may not, but I guess 20 years down the road, if we meet gerbert along the street, we still can crack that face joke and have a good laugh about it. I'll end off with a quote from my favorite band mayday, 五月天(second to X-Japan though)
我从来不会想说，
那种..
如果时光可以倒流的这种话。
因为....
时光如果真的可以倒流，
这一切就不会那么的珍贵....
(Sorry lloyd, no translation cause the "feel" to it disappears when i try to translate it. Get someone more pro to do it for you.)
Excerpts from Melodies of Life, soundtrack of FFIX. Very nice song, those who want can ask from me online.
Edit: Haha, the wonders of youtube. Found the ending for FFIX which contains the song.

my 55 qns
I would like to say a big thank you to all those who wished me happy birthday, but a birthday a couple of days from the A levels isnt something to be very happy about eh?
1. how old do you wish you were?
16, so i can have 2 more years with our class. awwwwww
2. where were you when 9/11 happened?
at home, so tired that i was not really sure what was going on until the next morning
3. what do you do when vending machines steal your money?
look around and kick real hard
4. do you consider yourself kind?
at times
5. if you had to get a tattoo, where would it be?
a huge dragon on my back, gives you lot of street cred. haha
6. if you could be fluent in any other language, what would it be?
assuming i am already fluent in Eng and Chi, then German. Ich spreche Deustch
7. do you know your neighbours?
no, they like leave early and come home late, and condos are designed to be neighbour unfriendly.

The Ice Queen Speaks Up
The Ice Queen Speaks Up…..
Seeing the deluge of emo posts on the blog, I thought maybe I’ll break my golden rule of silence for once and actually blog, (via hammy) about my 6a experience.
So basically I came to rj by fluke. I didn’t want to go hc because it felt so stifling and claustrophobic. At the same time I couldn’t possibly go vj because of it simply because it isn’t practical. Thus the only choice left was here, and so here I am. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from my new jc/class, my previous school left me feeling weary and cynical. Therefore, I came to jc as an icy cold dao kia, determined not to get too attached to anyone or anything. But, as Miss Wong pointed out, it isn’t easy not to get attached to 6a. The class is just too engaging and warm…
Throughout the last 2 years, the class has been nothing less than great fun. There’s always this lively and bubbly atmosphere in class. I guess Xuhui’s right, the class is a very child-like, engaging in silly things like face jokes and water fights… but then again it just reflects on the class’ innocence and fun-loving nature. Yet beneath the childish facade, the class exudes a sense of maturity, knowing when to draw the lines on some touché issues. Granted, some feelings might have been hurt along the way, and some tears shed, but I believe none of this was meant to be. Certainly, there is no malicious intent to hurt anyone. And besides, there is always this remarkable quality of the class to forgive and forget, which, I believe, is one of the greatest grace a human being can show any other. (though I don’t think anything that unforgivable has ever happened yet, haha)
I can’t exactly pinpoint what makes the class click, but it just does. There’s just this nice, lovely effervescence that enlivens dreary school days. Much as I love y2k, I don’t think I would have been able to stay awake during chem if not for the many guessing games the class plays with our exasperated tutor. We never take anything seriously, and remain eternally sanguine in the face of results and incessant naggings. And I’m truly grateful for this eternal optimism and euphoria. I feel sheltered from the intense Rafflesian competition by our little happy and contented class.
And lastly, the class probably wouldn’t be what it is today without the people making up the class. Somehow, everyone just has a part to play in it – be it the class clown, class bimbo, or class pet – everyone has a unique personality (perhaps, best reflected in out class nicknames, haha) that lends the class its character. Thus, the class bears a little characteristic of each of us, making it truly a class to call our own.
So what I really want to say is this: thank you 6a for all the fun and laughter, and for allowing me to be part of this class. From the bottom of my heart, I wish all of you happiness and that no matter what happens, all of you will be able to remain optimistic. And I hope too, that you’ve already figured out what you want in life and how to get it. Whatever it is, remember, do not lose sight of the end in pursuit of the means. That said, all the best everyone, carpe diem!

thank you
Farewell came and went. Was fighting back tears while we were in class. So much has happened during these 2 years and for most parts of it, 6a was with me. I’ll miss being in 6a, watching all the silly antics, listening to squabbles, alternately laughing and diao-ing at the unfunny jokes.. I’ll miss singing at the top of our lungs, regardless of our aptitude for singing.. I’ll miss watching the looks of exasperation on y2k's face when we give him the most ridiculous of answers. I’ll miss pe with the class.. I’ll miss the scissors paper stone games after meals in the canteen (though usually I just force the guys to help me clear n refuse to play the game haha).
It’s sad that we have to leave each other. At this point, we have all overcome any barriers of awkwardness around each other, and just when this sense of utter comfort has settled in, we have to go our separate ways. Ms Wong said that she didn’t want to get too close to us, because she knew that eventually we will have to part. Yet, while it is upsetting that the time we spend together in the future will probably be less than a tenth of what we do now, I don’t regret forging bonds with any of you.
I hope that many years from now, we will still be able to count on each other, to believe in us, have faith in us.. I hope that regardless of what careers we have, regardless of money and fame, we will still see each other as we do now, our opinions untainted by the future. I hope that no matter what happens, the bond of being part of 6a will always stay, and that we will always be able to look at each other with fondness and affection, innocent as always.
I don’t think I have adequately expressed this, but I really thank all of you for the little shows of concern you have given me throughout my jc life. Every little thing matters.
Thank you, lian, for listening to me, especially last year, and for your encouragements, be it during season or when I get distressed about schoolwork.
Thank you, tang, for the fun, laughter, encouragements and obvious concern.
Thank you, xuhui, for your incessant patience with me despite me being less than rational half the time. Thank you for listening to everything despite me talking about the same things over and over again. Thank you for going accompanying me through every thing. Thank you. I don’t know how I would have survived jc without you.
Thank you, shiting, for all your little notes whenever I am upset. Thank you for accompanying me when I didn’t want to go home last year. Thank you for all the little details you made sure to take care of.
Thank you, jilyn, also for the little notes and for the car rides home. Thank you, for listening to all my rants.
Thank you, cass, for all your entertainment and intelligent discussions.
Thank you, zara, for the easy friendship you had handed me early last year, and your perpetual cheerful “hello umay” when we meet, which always made me feel welcomed.
Thank you, bin, for being so understanding all the time and making me feel that I can go to you anything, and for all the effort you have put in to bond the class.
Thank you, taitai, for your generosity all the time, yummy products of your baking, and listening to my troubles even though we aren’t all that close.
Thank you, caiyun, for the unfounded faith you have in me (esp in sports haha) which actually did serve to boost up my self esteem.
Thank you, nic, for your listening ear, especially last year. I felt that I could go to you anytime at all, when I needed you. Thank you for giving our friendship another shot. Thank you for the pat on the back when I was so upset during season.. it brought me to tears. Thank you for noticing whenever I am upset.
Thank you, hammie, for being a willing punching bag, though you never did deserve the punches. Thank you for always being here. Thank you for your understanding and sensitivity, not judging me when I expect you to, because I find what I say retarded. Thank you for being so reliable. Thank you for all the small little things you do for me without much thought.
Thank you, eric, for teaching me patiently the few times I ask you for help and for asking me if I was alright during season.
Thank you, ryan, for accompanying me to watch xuhui train that one time after the raffles trail briefing, and for offering to let me go to your house to kill time. Thank you, for the show of concern when you put your hand on my back/shoulder while walking into the lt for gp, when I was sad.
Thank you, winfred, for all the treats, the talking, the understanding. Somehow or other, I feel that you always know where I’m coming from.
Thank you, ziming, for the reassurances in your blog (about my musical aptitude), and for the security you gave me when we were cycling in ecp.
Thank you, zhiwei, for helping me carry my gp files, and for your generosity when I sat next to you, always offering to let me kope your food.
Thank you, joel, for insisting on accompanying me at the bus stop last year, when we were at orchard. Thank you for trying to engage in conversation when you could tell I was feeling left out.
Thank you, jenhan, for reassuring me during pw oral presentation. I was really very nervous and felt a lot better after you said something which I can’t remember what. Just remembered that I felt a lot better. Thank you, for insisting on sending me home after nic’s party. Thank you, for telling me it’s ok and asking me if I felt better, during season when I forgot to wish you happy birthday. Thank you, for all the little shows of care.
Thank you, shawn, for being the first to introduce yourself to me. It made the initial unfamiliar surroundings seem friendlier. Thank you for smiling and saying hello every time you see me.
Thank you, gerbert, for all the entertainment you have provided me with. 6a will definitely be completely different without you. Thank you for reminding me about the strength of friendship, from your evident faith in it.
Thank you, lloyd, for the smiles and the somehow misguided perception that I analyse everything and that I know everyone. Haha. Thank you for your sensitivity, like when you tried helping me look for a copy of phy prelim answers for hammie when I claimed everyone was ignoring me.
Thank you, zhu, for the effort to make me feel happier, with sweets or whatever you can think of. Thank you for putting up with my tempers as well.
Thank you, yowie, for the easy conversations, esp when you first entered 6a last year.
All of you make up a class, where I feel I belong to. No hostility at all.. every little thing you do made me feel welcomed, no matter what mood I am in. Thank you. I wouldn’t exchange this class for any other.. not even somebody’s hahahaha, to those who know what I’m referring to.
In this class, there is love. And may this love never die.

It’s sad that we have to leave each other. At this point, we have all overcome any barriers of awkwardness around each other, and just when this sense of utter comfort has settled in, we have to go our separate ways. Ms Wong said that she didn’t want to get too close to us, because she knew that eventually we will have to part. Yet, while it is upsetting that the time we spend together in the future will probably be less than a tenth of what we do now, I don’t regret forging bonds with any of you.
I hope that many years from now, we will still be able to count on each other, to believe in us, have faith in us.. I hope that regardless of what careers we have, regardless of money and fame, we will still see each other as we do now, our opinions untainted by the future. I hope that no matter what happens, the bond of being part of 6a will always stay, and that we will always be able to look at each other with fondness and affection, innocent as always.
I don’t think I have adequately expressed this, but I really thank all of you for the little shows of concern you have given me throughout my jc life. Every little thing matters.
Thank you, lian, for listening to me, especially last year, and for your encouragements, be it during season or when I get distressed about schoolwork.
Thank you, tang, for the fun, laughter, encouragements and obvious concern.
Thank you, xuhui, for your incessant patience with me despite me being less than rational half the time. Thank you for listening to everything despite me talking about the same things over and over again. Thank you for going accompanying me through every thing. Thank you. I don’t know how I would have survived jc without you.
Thank you, shiting, for all your little notes whenever I am upset. Thank you for accompanying me when I didn’t want to go home last year. Thank you for all the little details you made sure to take care of.
Thank you, jilyn, also for the little notes and for the car rides home. Thank you, for listening to all my rants.
Thank you, cass, for all your entertainment and intelligent discussions.
Thank you, zara, for the easy friendship you had handed me early last year, and your perpetual cheerful “hello umay” when we meet, which always made me feel welcomed.
Thank you, bin, for being so understanding all the time and making me feel that I can go to you anything, and for all the effort you have put in to bond the class.
Thank you, taitai, for your generosity all the time, yummy products of your baking, and listening to my troubles even though we aren’t all that close.
Thank you, caiyun, for the unfounded faith you have in me (esp in sports haha) which actually did serve to boost up my self esteem.
Thank you, nic, for your listening ear, especially last year. I felt that I could go to you anytime at all, when I needed you. Thank you for giving our friendship another shot. Thank you for the pat on the back when I was so upset during season.. it brought me to tears. Thank you for noticing whenever I am upset.
Thank you, hammie, for being a willing punching bag, though you never did deserve the punches. Thank you for always being here. Thank you for your understanding and sensitivity, not judging me when I expect you to, because I find what I say retarded. Thank you for being so reliable. Thank you for all the small little things you do for me without much thought.
Thank you, eric, for teaching me patiently the few times I ask you for help and for asking me if I was alright during season.
Thank you, ryan, for accompanying me to watch xuhui train that one time after the raffles trail briefing, and for offering to let me go to your house to kill time. Thank you, for the show of concern when you put your hand on my back/shoulder while walking into the lt for gp, when I was sad.
Thank you, winfred, for all the treats, the talking, the understanding. Somehow or other, I feel that you always know where I’m coming from.
Thank you, ziming, for the reassurances in your blog (about my musical aptitude), and for the security you gave me when we were cycling in ecp.
Thank you, zhiwei, for helping me carry my gp files, and for your generosity when I sat next to you, always offering to let me kope your food.
Thank you, joel, for insisting on accompanying me at the bus stop last year, when we were at orchard. Thank you for trying to engage in conversation when you could tell I was feeling left out.
Thank you, jenhan, for reassuring me during pw oral presentation. I was really very nervous and felt a lot better after you said something which I can’t remember what. Just remembered that I felt a lot better. Thank you, for insisting on sending me home after nic’s party. Thank you, for telling me it’s ok and asking me if I felt better, during season when I forgot to wish you happy birthday. Thank you, for all the little shows of care.
Thank you, shawn, for being the first to introduce yourself to me. It made the initial unfamiliar surroundings seem friendlier. Thank you for smiling and saying hello every time you see me.
Thank you, gerbert, for all the entertainment you have provided me with. 6a will definitely be completely different without you. Thank you for reminding me about the strength of friendship, from your evident faith in it.
Thank you, lloyd, for the smiles and the somehow misguided perception that I analyse everything and that I know everyone. Haha. Thank you for your sensitivity, like when you tried helping me look for a copy of phy prelim answers for hammie when I claimed everyone was ignoring me.
Thank you, zhu, for the effort to make me feel happier, with sweets or whatever you can think of. Thank you for putting up with my tempers as well.
Thank you, yowie, for the easy conversations, esp when you first entered 6a last year.
All of you make up a class, where I feel I belong to. No hostility at all.. every little thing you do made me feel welcomed, no matter what mood I am in. Thank you. I wouldn’t exchange this class for any other.. not even somebody’s hahahaha, to those who know what I’m referring to.
In this class, there is love. And may this love never die.

i love 6a too!:D
i decided to blog since everyones blogging too YAY:) n i also can dispute lloyd's claim! i DONT think gerbert n i shld get married!-_-
its been nearly 2yrs already, n i guess e class has been tru alot these 2 yrs. tt day in e library, someone told me "we've known each other for 2yrs now. so what do u think are e most significant parts of our 2yrs?" well, with 6a, i guess theres so many significant parts tt i cant even rmb every single one of them. n i guess wads special is tt theres not much specific events or activities tt defines us, but rather tt we're always very "happy n contented" haha..
random things ill always want to keep in my memories!
-pink monkey! haha i love e pink monkey la!:D it was so happy n there was this whole bunch of pink monkey jokes like chomping on ppl. n there was also retards like..uhh jen han is it? haha tt bought 4 more extra clips so tt he can go round clipping on ppl-_- n i rmb walking all e way frm ri to ET with e pink monkey clipped to my back-_- how noob!!:(
-ET! haha though i know its mainly a guy place, i really enjoyed gg to et to eat wantan mee. even though i actually dont really like wantan me, but i guess its more of e company (awwwwwww!) n i rmb e time where i went w gerbert winfred lloyd n hasu n we stayed there to gossip for like 2hours haha
-nic chasing gerbert ard w e broom all e way up e stairs to e nxt level n back!
-face jokes!
-who are u jokes! even though gerbert always says it to me nowadays:(
-uhh this sounds quite wierd but ill miss e stfus too haha
-water fights after PE n down e classes! haha i rmb there was once there was this GIANT water fight n e classroom was SO WET after tt!
-kbox sessions! esp e first one haha:D
-mugging sessions in e library! haha last hols, was mugging w winfred zhu lloyd n abit of nic!
n so many many more la im tired of recalling them already haha
i guess things have changed alot frm my initial decision to come rj. rj was a really really last minute decision for me cos though i wanted to be in raffles since pri sch, e nanyang mentality in me always thought tt ill jus take e safe decision n go to hwa chong. n so when i finally realised tt i was gg rj, i was jus freaking out non stop. abt how ill have no frens n my class will hate me n i cant fit in n ill jus faint on my first day of sch haha. well, luckily i was proven wrong. this is one risk tt im really glad tt i took:)
these 2 yrs have really been e best yrs of my schooling life. i nv once rmbed a time apart frm these 2 yrs where i wanted to go to sch practically everyday, or when i enjoyed myself so much during lessons (even though i keep falling aslp), or when i can proudly say "i love my class" n attend every single class outings faithfully, not because i feel obligated to go, but because i WANT to go haha. its really different frm e way i felt abt my past classes, n im really glad for it. tt my last 2yrs in MOE's education system was spent so fruitfully:)
n i guess i wont be e person i am today if not for these 2 yrs in rj. tt day, as bin n i were walking out of sch, she suddenly turned to me n said "eh i think uve changed alot". n looking back, yeah i guess ive changed a considerable amount. i dont know if these changes are good or bad, but i guess im jus taking them as it comes n accepting what i am. my views on alot of things, whether is it friendships, studies, relationships or other aspects of life has changed considerably. became less childish, less idealistic, less inflexible haha. abit more cynical n emo here n there, but ive learnt how to take everything in stride. accept failures while pushing myself to work harder; accept pain while telling myself to look on e brighter side. these 2 yrs have not been easy, ive gone tru some of e saddest n most painful moments haha (apart frm in sec2 la when i was really depressed), but it gave me some of my happiest moments too. n with every fall, i learn how to pick myself up n learn invaluable lessons from it. so i suppose im walking away from every experience a stronger person:)
yeah, i admit there has been moments where i might have rubbed others off e wrong way (n im really sorry for tt!) or when i get annoyed n irritated w ppl. but really, i still love 6a:) im not sure if yrs n yrs down e grp all of us will still remain in touch n turn up happily for class gatherings (though i REALLY hope we will haha), but im jus glad i have these happy memories to smile at when i look back at my jc life:)
random facts to end off haha
1) i still cant spell lloyds name confidently without checking like my handphone or class contact list!
2) im uhh less scared of jen han i think but i think hes a REALLY nice guy!
3) i thought hammy doesnt like me all e way till last fri haha
4) i liked our class e very first time we met up!
5) n then i proceeded to really hate it for e nxt few wks haha. cos i thought everyone din like me (which was true to a certain extent!)
6) but everything worked out well in e end!:)
n lastly,
7) i really dont think gerbert n i shld get married!

like a great guru once told hasu.."6a guys can NEVER be emo, we look/sound damn funny when we want to.... errm... be in touch with our sensitive side". Anyway hasu recently informed me that that great guru was actually me. And after careful thought and that touching post from jenhan (aww), I think that what i said wasn't really true. Times like this, when we've just had a farewell assembly, and you dont feel like studying even though you've already wasted 20 days and counting, its a good time to reflect on the past two years and what they've meant to us. btw jenhan dont mind if i copy your format k? muacks
being a 6A guy
being a 6A guy has been one of the most enjoyable experiences of my life. I never thought, coming from such a close-knit group of friends at SJI, that i could ever get to know a bunch of people as well as i knew Sean, or nick, or a few other guys i've never bothered to mention to you all.
nevertheless, i've had the good fortune of meeting people like gerbert, who is such a pain in the ass i sometimes want to smash that head of his. or ryan, who unfortunately has been unfaithful to me with hammy. but that's okay, i can see where you're coming from, he's a good looking guy. let's not forget ziming, whose skill in physics is only matched by his appalling finishing in soccer. How about the resident bloggers, jenhan, zhu and winfred. zhu gets the award for most regular updater, but im grateful to all you guys for the frequent and entertaining posts.
Okay, granted, I may not have seen Situ naked before, and maybe I'll never be able to get piss-drunk at Serangoon Gardens with nic (cos he'd probably KO after smelling the alcohol), but i really think that the bond that we share as 6A guys is special, and something i dont think you'll find in any other class in rjc, or any jc for that matter. its something we should cherish, even as we go on to university life and beyond. (here's to us all getting into some great unis)
being a 6A class-guy
haha okay this part seems just like the first part. but actually im referring to being a part of 6A as a whole..anyway even though we never reaaally got over the rampant sexual segregation that has prevailed since day 1, i actually don't really mind. it doesnt mean we're not that close...its kind of like a celebration of the fact that 6A is just made up of a bunch of innocent little boys and girls who havent really gotten over that awkward stage when we get all nervous in front of the opposite sex. or maybe its just me hahaha. anyway thanks to all of you (girls, since ive talked about the guys already)...joanne for being such an inspiration :P, tsai, who's like the poster-girl of 6A, umay, for her regular observations on life, friendship and alternately , jenhan or hammy. just to name a few...and how could i leave out the teachers! ms wong gets top billing of course, as the best ct ever...mrs veluri and mrs arowana lim for being such fun gp teachers...and YAMY YEO. whom i hope will always have a special place for me in his heart. haha..right.
random stuff to end off
1. thanks for being so racially tolerant. as the only minority representation in this class, i have to say i give you all top marks in terms of the total lack of discrimination or racial slurs directed at me and brothers from the motherland
2. i think gerbert and jilyn should get married
3. i miss ching man
4. we should go for the post prom party
5. if i get arrested again, tell my mom i'm sorry
6.i love you guys!
anyway, that was really fun to write, and i just wanna say again, 6A rocks! thanks guys for all the memories

farewell (from my blog)
in a blink of an eye, two years have sped by and my jc life is all but over, save the As. over the past two years, ive learnt many valuable life lessons, forged many great friendships and gone through some of the most sensational moments of my life. its quite hard to believe that 6 years in raffles has ended so quickly, but all good things come to an end.
some people say that RJ is a cold place, people are selfish and we have no school spirit. i do agree that RJ can be intimidating at first, but beneath the cold exterior, RJ is actually a place full of warm, caring and funny people. i find that in RJ, as long as you're willing to make friends, school life will be extremely meaningful. its only when u get to know those cold faces along the corridors, will you realise that many students in RJ are great individuals u'd love to get to know better. of course there are screw ups around, by why focus on the negatives? the key to a fulfilling jc life (or your life for that matter) is to focus on the positives. you may not be able to forgive and forget all the time, but ive always managed to keep the negatives out of my head.
i've learnt many valuable lessons (some painful), encountered many failures, made many mistakes, but ive learnt to pick myself up each time. jc life is enriching not only because of the fun and games, but also for the life lessons u learn. i know ive gained so much from these 2 years, i wouldnt have been the same person if i had gone to another JC that is for sure.
the great time ive spent in RJ can be attributed to a few groups of people.
1. my class 2S06A
u guys rock man. how can anyone in 6A forget the totally RETARDED stuff that we do in class. its great how everyone is so carefree and fun loving. i hereby declare that 2S06A is the most united class in RJ. which other class has SO many class outings??!?! i bet even J1 classes dont have as many class outings as us. the fact that we have so many clowns in 6A (i believe that every guy in our class is 50% retarded) has contributed so much to our class spirit.
some things i'll miss alot
i. class outings
ii. all the lame jokes
iii. the togetherness of our class
iv. miss wong's rants during lessons haha
the list goes on
some things i wont miss as much (but i'll still miss them!)
i. repetition of jokes and phrases. for at least half a year
case in point - face jokes are the ultimate (1 year 9 months and counting), bangbus (half a year), and the newest craze>>>the new line of "who/what are you" jokes
ii. getting sent out of class for not doing chem tutorial (twice) / getting white slipped for not doing chem tutorial
iii. oscillating at j8 deciding what to eat
thanks 6A for giving me the "time of my life" - greenday (quoting thanks)
2. my CCAs
Canoeing
ah the tough trainings that we've been through since j1 has really enriched our lives by so much, teaching us the meaning of friendship, perseverence and hardwork. weeseng and his brilliant english ("we were left with our own devices"), wang/jquek/fruit for their ugliness, and the rest of the team for the plain boisterous fun we have.
i'll remember
i. staying back at the weightsroom/track till 8+ just to complete our fartleks and sets
ii. laughing at fruit/jquek/wang for their ugliness
iii. posing in front of the mirrors in the weights room and the toilets
iv. rowing. the feel of the water
v. aching like some dog after consecutive land and water trainings
vi. missing out on the team silver by just a few points
so raffles canoeists of 05/06, lets be real men and pwn A levels
Gymnastics
its been 6 years of gym for me. although gym in jc has been pretty slack, i still enjoyed myself, rushing from canoe training to the gym at 7 pm every monday and wednesday, taking a bath, and chionging on to the tramp without even eating/warming up. ive forged strong friendships in gym over the years and RJ gym has allowed me to meet more people, and it was enjoyable. i think jumping on the tramp is still the best feeling in the world. u feel so free up there and its just u. i'll go back to the gym next year for night training since i, being the clerk boy, can go home everyday.
thanks horse, andy, pat, zixi, ziying, maz, boon, jordan, wenxin, juee, huihui, huiqi for making tramp trainings so enjoyable. i will never forget throwing the stinking mats for u pple (SDU - special defence unit hahaha)
3. my friends
last but not least how can i forget the people who ive known since RI. dings, yabbie, amishrake (even though hes in AC), and all the other ri geppers. the friends ive made in RJ. so many... thanks for enriching my life. btw if anyone from 4M reads this lets have a class outing soon ok? BENNY TAN JEK HAU MONITOR u better organise.
if its one think ive learnt in JC, it is to live your life to the fullest. no regrets, no looking back.
i'll leave you with a quote from T.S. Elliot
“Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go”
i hope that as we leave RJ for paths unknown, may we always strive to excel in whatever we do, but do it not for the power, riches or fame that comes with it. do it because u have a passion for it.
hopefully as the years pass our friendships will remain as solid as ever. when we're 50 years old, may we still be laughing at situ's face/fajoo's underwear/gerbert
some people say that RJ is a cold place, people are selfish and we have no school spirit. i do agree that RJ can be intimidating at first, but beneath the cold exterior, RJ is actually a place full of warm, caring and funny people. i find that in RJ, as long as you're willing to make friends, school life will be extremely meaningful. its only when u get to know those cold faces along the corridors, will you realise that many students in RJ are great individuals u'd love to get to know better. of course there are screw ups around, by why focus on the negatives? the key to a fulfilling jc life (or your life for that matter) is to focus on the positives. you may not be able to forgive and forget all the time, but ive always managed to keep the negatives out of my head.

ah the tough trainings that we've been through since j1 has really enriched our lives by so much, teaching us the meaning of friendship, perseverence and hardwork. weeseng and his brilliant english ("we were left with our own devices"), wang/jquek/fruit for their ugliness, and the rest of the team for the plain boisterous fun we have.
i'll remember
i. staying back at the weightsroom/track till 8+ just to complete our fartleks and sets
ii. laughing at fruit/jquek/wang for their ugliness
iii. posing in front of the mirrors in the weights room and the toilets
iv. rowing. the feel of the water
v. aching like some dog after consecutive land and water trainings
vi. missing out on the team silver by just a few points
so raffles canoeists of 05/06, lets be real men and pwn A levels
Gymnastics
its been 6 years of gym for me. although gym in jc has been pretty slack, i still enjoyed myself, rushing from canoe training to the gym at 7 pm every monday and wednesday, taking a bath, and chionging on to the tramp without even eating/warming up. ive forged strong friendships in gym over the years and RJ gym has allowed me to meet more people, and it was enjoyable. i think jumping on the tramp is still the best feeling in the world. u feel so free up there and its just u. i'll go back to the gym next year for night training since i, being the clerk boy, can go home everyday.
thanks horse, andy, pat, zixi, ziying, maz, boon, jordan, wenxin, juee, huihui, huiqi for making tramp trainings so enjoyable. i will never forget throwing the stinking mats for u pple (SDU - special defence unit hahaha)
3. my friends
last but not least how can i forget the people who ive known since RI. dings, yabbie, amishrake (even though hes in AC), and all the other ri geppers. the friends ive made in RJ. so many... thanks for enriching my life. btw if anyone from 4M reads this lets have a class outing soon ok? BENNY TAN JEK HAU MONITOR u better organise.
if its one think ive learnt in JC, it is to live your life to the fullest. no regrets, no looking back.
i'll leave you with a quote from T.S. Elliot
“Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go”
i hope that as we leave RJ for paths unknown, may we always strive to excel in whatever we do, but do it not for the power, riches or fame that comes with it. do it because u have a passion for it.
hopefully as the years pass our friendships will remain as solid as ever. when we're 50 years old, may we still be laughing at situ's face/fajoo's underwear/gerbert

This is what we mean by "getting out of the wrong side of bed"
The timeline below is a true account of what i experienced on 11/10/2006, aka the unluckiest day o f life.
~2 am: Finished personal statement with a flourish, only to discover that my printer's ink was out the moment i tried printing. Sent personal statement to hotmail account for retrieval in school to print. Reminded self NOT to oversleep.
~10.30am: Woke up with a start. Owned. Handphone had been silently ringing since 8+ am. Cabbed to school to make final touch-ups to uni apps.
~ 11am: Realised photocopying card = lost. Luckily ran into shit and tsai and managed to secure one.
~11-12pm: Went from sch library, to comp. lab 6, to mr edwin lim's own laptop to realise that the sch's internet connection was rejected any attempts to log into hotmail.com. ALL other websites working fine T.T
~2pm: Cafe Cartel, spilt water on self
~3-4pm: Went to winfred's house to print personal statement. Discovered to my horror that his internet suddenly went down for the first time in a long time, right after stepping into fred's house. Suspected the presence of a "suay" aura around me.
~4.30pm: Bus 410 with nic back to RJC. Bus broke down inexplicably for 3 mins without warning. Presence of "suay" aura confirmed.
~6pm: Made it home in 1 piece, to my great surprise
