6.13 Jerusalem

should i laugh or should i cry? should i rejoice or should i mourn? haha... i don't really quite know. but one should always focus on the pleasant things - the cranium, teachers' day celebration, the dinner at NYDC, the 'chatting' sessions (many hours) in the Counselling Room, the chinese & indian "discussions".

SMRT Challenge 2008

31st august - what a way to spend the eve of teachers' day with a group of students. participated in the smrt challenge 2008. it was a fruitful day as two of the three teams came in 4th and 3rd. among the top 4, we are the only non-tertiary institution. proud of you people!!!

maybe the organisers should consider putting the tertiary institutions (NTU, NUS, SMU etc) in the open category. the ability between them is too great for a hunt like this. it's almost like pitting the secondary school students with primary school kids.

3rd placed winners - zhi jie, alvin, louis, matthew - posing with their $1000 cheque which out of silliness suggested asking them to bring the big cheque to the bank and cash it in. :P

the SIN is on the medal tally

finally, SIN has a place on the medal tally... make sure you take a good look, one last good look at the medal tally. this phenomenon is even more rare that seeing the next total eclipse, or even rarer than seeing the next tsunami that will hit the shore of singapore. each generation of singaporean may only see the word SIN on the olympics medal tally once in their life time. so do cherish it...

delay no more/ delay no mall

one of the coolest name for a shopping center and brand in hong kong is the Delay No Mall and "delay no more"... say it fast enough and repeat it again and again... translate it to cantonese, you'll know what i mean by the coolest name/brand.

for those who has absolutely absolute no idea of cantonese, don't go around asking your parents before they smack you. just to give you a clue how cool the name is - translated in english, it means, FYM... go figure...

Singapore Connected...

enquiry letter part 6

Thank you for your email. We have both starter kits in hand.

I think it would be much better if we could set up a meeting to clarify some matters which we have doubts.

It is precisely your statement that the 'two teams visited the sites together as one and they had visited the sites physically. if they had not visited the sites, they would not have known the questions and the answers.'. This is also my point, that if your role had just been to check their answers before submission, how would it be possible that you knew if their answers were right/ wrong unless you were also there with them? Would that not then constitute assistance as they are supposed to participate in the race themselves?

Perhaps it is best we could meet up to to discuss the matter. If it suits you, would this Friday be good?
