haha, had to make sure that she's not blogging bout this beforehand before typing this post-my virgin post! yupz, this is the first time i'm blogging in my life so bear with me if anything not good enough ya? and don't complain i take up too much space! this post will be by far the longest and most dynamic and intersting post ever in the class blog history! (not forgetting the one with the most pics!!)

P.S I was SOOOOOOO tempted NOT to post all the pics we taken on that day because i really look pathetic on some of the pic... really cmi... BUT for the sake of those involved and the rest of the class who are in OBS, i put my IMAGE, APPEARANCE, MIEN and REPUTATION at risk just to give the whole class and whichever blog-viwer the most accurate and complete coverage and write up on the heritage tour! ;)

Samuel, vivek, derrick, cheryl, hui juan, rathi, shi ling, li ching and me! (sue took mc that day so couldn't join us... so sad...) nvm sue, must take care! will think of u too! :)

guess i will start from morning so kk here it goes:

first thing in the morning was english enrichment at audi... nothing much lo... passage was ok and gp-ish. quite good so OBS people take from us ya if you are THAT zealous... haha. anyway, mrs/miss emily teo was sort of like the in-charge throughout the whole session... so funny. we found out how mrs/miss emily teo punish her students if they look tired and yawning away in class --- stand up, lift up his/her left leg and put out his/her left hand, holding it parallel to the ground! stupid right?! sry sry but thats the truth i feel. she was like showing it to ALL of us in front of the audi and we were all laughing and sniggering at her. she smiled too and obviously proud of herself. oh pls... WE ARE NOT LAUGHING AT YOUR STUDENTS BUT YOU!!! haha haha haha! she was so ignorant... poor teacher...

then we went for this language enrichment thing... wasn't too bad i feel... we got splitted into the chinese, malay and indian group. not sure bout the malay and indian one cause i was not there... actually sue, rathi and vivek also didn't go, so we really don't know anything bout the other groups (rathi and vivek was 'studying') oh ya plus that giraffe... don't wanna join us then go library sleep. lazy giraffe! anyway so the rest of us went... actually was contemplating whether or not to go cause most of us don't even do chinese anymore... but that chinese HOD was like saying 'I don't care, everyone must go' so ok lo, we went.

watched a chinese movie. here's the funny part. the WHOLE show was in japanese, with really really occasional chinese dialouge. dotz right? and subtitles was in chinese and chinese alone. the thing is all those chinese characters were the original old form kind, not the simplified one. not that i can't read them and they made a difference, but i can gurantee at least half the population in the lt can't read them. so bascially many went into the lt watching a show they don't understand at all. and we have to answers 3 questions and submit them to our chinese teachers next mon... oops... did I tell you most of us don't take chinese anymore? ;)

to give some credit to the movie, actually it wasn't so bad la... quite touching. i'm not going to blog much bout the plot here so people who wanna know the story jus come find me... but i doubt anyone will be doing so... haha. Anyway, the WHOLE time derrick was giving comments about the movie. seriously. i say again. the WHOLE time. don't believe ask cheryl who was sitting beside me. sry derrick to betray u here but come on, thats the truth and u know it. pls don't be angry and blame me. first he was commenting bout the show being so sexist cause they featured men crying. alright i agree with that. almost all the men in the show cried. then derrick was commenting on the plot. then the dialouge. then prophesying bout what will happen next. then saying things like 'ah... now the guy die... huh? havent yet? (moments later...) see see! i say he will die already'. hahahahahaha. really funny la... he was like a commentator in a soccer match. this is the first time i hear him giving SO much comments at one go... haha. oh ya btw there was this scene where by they show this kid doing his big business. grahically. how the faeces come out etc... and the whole lt was like 'eeewww' here and there, like they never do it before like that...oh pls... kk. enough. after that got some talk with two 95.8FM djs. ex-YJcians. not bad. they are really good at talking and making sure that there wasn't any silence. what irony...haha

had lunch, nothing much, can't remember already sorry. i think we were all quite excited bout the tour at this time. after the briefing in hall where by we were slotted into groups (group 17 if i'm correct), we were off! off on the amazing race cum heritage tour!!!! actually was quite surprised when mr. ganesh told us there won't be any teachers following each group and at each station. we were on our own! so cool loh. jus have to report to esplanade by five after completing all the stations can already. its not a race against time and winners (top 3 groups) will be decided based on the number of correct questions answered. kk. all of a sudden, when we were about to go, mr. heng asked us whether he can tag along in our group. 'erm.. ok...' was our reply. little did we know that he was one great source of entertainmnet and help!!! (see all the group photos? all 9 of us was in because he took the photos for us!) thks mr. heng!!! u were great!

anyway mr. heng changed into his causual attire, not the usual shirt, black pants, leather shoes and ahem... white socks... but a t-shirt, jeans and cap. everything was ok la... it was like SOooooooooo him. seriously. very bugis street. you would have the same sentiments with me if u saw them. haha. then there was this sling bag that he carried. it was SOOOOOOOOOOO^999999999 pro-communist!!! seriously man! got a big red star in front and chinese characters in red at that back. haha. alright alright, i better shut up later our blog get marked... sry ah... but really must say ma... haha. anyway we were walking past the security guards and 'office' at the gate when all hell break loose.

there was this old indian security guard standing outside the office and this younger malay guard in the office (no connotations bout the race). anyway, we walked past the indian guard, nothing happened. we walked past the malay guard in the office, nothing happened. we took another five steps, BOOM! die. the indian security guard was like suddenly shouting and barking at us saying 'HEYYY SCAN la! u think i not here ah? (and blah blah blah)' thats the truth man! we were like so shocked and irritated lo... at least u can tell us in a lighter tone what or say excuse me or something... u hooligan ah? this is a school ok>? and somemore we were with mr. heng lo... like that scare us later heart attack die how? anyway, we obediently scanned each of our card (mr. heng was standing at one side waiting patiently for us), giving that really pissed off face and were about to go when BOOM! die again.

the security guard pointed at mr. heng and said 'HEY who do u think u are? why didn't u scan?! go scan now!!' hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! omg we seriously can't beileve what we were hearing. plus mr. heng was giving that total bewildered face, mouth slightly open, whole face blushing red. it was really super duper funny la... mr. heng then said he was a teacher etc. but guess what? u will never believe this man... the indian security said 'i don't believe u, show me your id!!' hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i would have died laughing there and then. i mean omg omg omg! seriously la this is STRAITS TIME headlines worthy type of ground-breaking news man! imagine wake up see latest ST headlines "Young teacher get barred from leaving sch ground by security officer at gate in YJ"!!! real funny la! kk.
