another busy and eventful past 3 days.. got my S80 on sat.. compliment my S2 IS, the S2 with powerful zoom, and the S80 with its wide-angle.. really can see the difference between the max wide angle of the S2 and S80, not really used to it though, but the wider perpective is something fresh after so used to the zoom of the S2.. don't need to step back to frame the pics now..
anyway, brought my S80 for the past 3 days.. Monday to take some pics on how to get there on Friday.. nothing much to talk about..
Tuesday.. and guess who's birthday it is..

you guessed it..
Angie! for those reading this and so happen to also be in NYJC,
vote for Angie C32! couldn't celebrate it somewhere outside as Tues our longest day, so everyone would be dead tired by then.. anyway, its good publicity for her since she's running for council...
so got the class together at one table and started singing birthday song.. not really much people in the first half hour so did round 2 when more people came.. hahaa..
present..
vote for me.. thanks..hahaa.. then went to the squash court.. the squash court and grandstand seems to have become our usual hang out places already.. took more pics etc..
then body combat for PE in the afternoon.. tiring.. after that, while others already going home, me and Michelle went for hip-hop.. wanna try something new, break out of my comfort zone I suppose..
check it out...
Mr Larry also gave us a crash course on how to do some of the break-dance moves.. could execute them, but couldn't really balance.. ended at 7, reached home like already close to 8.45..
Wednesdayhad a sorta band exchange with an overseas band.. James Hargest College Band from
New Zealand.. they're here in Singapore for a music festival..
Angie brought some cake for us to thank us for yesterday.. only went there, grab a bite and had to help the band to get ready already.. shifted the percussion instruments first to LT4, set up the chairs, got our instruments and waited outside..
they came at about 3.. played for us some songs like The Mask of Zorro, Summertime etc.. then it was our turn to play.. played Pirates of the Carribean and 1st Suite in Eb.. don't think we sounded as good as we should be... only had like 5 or 6 practices prior to this.. then had a combined band..
James Hargest and NY Band..
quite disappointed that I wasn't selected to be part of the combined band... probably would get to know more people that way.. didn't really feel that feeling from previous band exchanges.. Jeanna and March could testify to that..
had some light refreshments outside the LT..

what's this "queh" thing..
erm.. found it quite difficult to explain what queh is to them.. of course like all Singaporeans know what quey/kweh is.. but to describe it is not easy.. a gluttinous rice-skin pocket with crunchy raddish inside??
then took them round the campus for a short tour..
tour-guides for the day...chatted along the way with some of them.. they were quite interested to see the rugby notice board.. as you know, New Zealand is famous for its rugby.. oh yea and their school starts at 9 and ours like 7.25?? now I realise how tedious Singapore's education system is..
took some pics before they went off..
