We need you guys to bring an item EACH to the bbq (see list below)

IMPORTANT: to ensure minimum conflict, we have decided that it would not be a good idea for you guys to choose which food item to bring (sorry!) so we will assign them to you. we will try our best to assign the girls to lighter items. (see? we are SO NICE =DDD) If you guys have any complaints or would like to do swaps, please tag so everyone will know ;) (upon a successful swap, please drop ben an SMS so we can alter the list accordingly.)
Those who have nothing to bring, you can help out in other ways like cleaning up ;)

Who wants to do extra CIP?
I have a cip on hand and I'm helping my friend to recruit. This event is being organised by Citibank n YMCA. The event would most likely be held on 4 August 2007 (Saturday). There will be a total cip hour claim of 6 hrs but you would most likely be at the event for 4 hrs +. This event is a charity event so you would be trying to sell keychain-pens on that day or helping out at the booth. All proceeds of this event would be given to Club Rainbow(Singapore) which is the beneficiary of this event.
Venue would most likely be at Orchard Rd with a booth being set up there. So, if your are interested, your can contact me through msn or call/sms me at 91132502. You can pull along your other friends to do this cip too :) They too will be able to get the cip too. Or perhaps we can make this another class CIP? So Audrey, if you are reading this post, would you give it a thought about it? Haha XD
Anyway, this is voluntary. So if you're not interested also nvm lah. But I'll need to confirm before 7 July so do give me a reply before then :) So, take care and hmmph, study hard? Lol

Soaking Up The Sun In Canberra
HELLO 1T08! KRYSTAL here! Sorry that I never contribute anything to the class blog cos my Blogger is in Japanese! Plus the fact that I'm too lazy to type out a post! Anyhoos, I wrote a post on my sis blog (she was away on LTC and made me her guest blogger! haha!) regarding out class CIP! So... I shall copy and paste the whole damn thing! Ok, here it goes:
With regards to the previous post, I realised I may have been a wee bit nasty. Was feeling tired after travelling (by BUS okay!) all by myself to and from Bukit Panjang for class CIP you see. Plus the fact that I had to wake up early the next day (5.30am!)... Anyways, SYU the eediotz kind of made me smile with her stupid antics on the tagboard. Posing as some Mysterious lover who lurbbeexx mooii alotxz! Heh!
So anyway, my class had planned a CIP activity today! Travelled to Canberra (not in Australia, mind you!) Primary School in the land of Far Far Away. i.e. Sembawang! Basically, our CIP activity was to be volunteers at a day camp for children... The thing is that I have a feeling that these children were problem kids. After a whole day (0800-1600!!) with the children, I realised that they can be classified into 2 main groups. They are:-
1) The hyperactive, fidgety, and extremely mischievous type who seems to be perpetually high on sugar; enjoys pretending to be Warrior Boy (yes! some bugger went around proclaiming that he was one!) and engaging in fist fights to show who's the boss. Also suffers from ADD/ADHD and is violent in nature. Surprisingly, despite being all action packed, they resembled Rolie Polie Olie!
2) The extreme opposite of Type 1. Quiet and passive, they follow orders (sit here, stand there, shut up etc.) but is too shy to do anything else. Suffers from a bad case of stuttering and low self-esteem.
Well, after registration and all, there were only a a pathetic group of... 12 children! So we got them sorted into smaller groups and I was the facilitator for 3 of them. Because my brain was a little jammed up, I couldn't help think of a proper group name... and thus had to settle for the name ''DAREDEVIL''! And the helpful little guy even thought up of a cheer that went something like this: Daredevil, Daredevil,We Are Number One! We will eat you up and beat you with blood in our hands etc. I know! It's like...OMGWTFBBQ?!?! Naturally, it was rejected which must have broke his heart! Haha... The rest of the day whizzed by in a blur as we played about a hundred lame games in the sun such as Whacko, some Spider Web thing, trying to walk blindfolded without stepping on water bombs (those lil' cheats!) blah blah...you get the picture. And this cute Lilliputian actually cried as he stepped on a water bomb unintentionally!
The highlight of the day were, you guessed it, the water bombs (and Joanna saying NA-BEH! in front of the everyone)! All of them could hardly contain their excitement and were delirious at the sight of them. Things kind of got out of hand and chaotic as we played the Dog & Bone game with the water bombs. This repulsive little simian actually threw 3 at my face and neck at a close range! Curse You! Of course I could not squish him with my thumb for fear of being reported for animal abuse. Wah laozz... I still very pissed off ok! Was soaking wet after that due to that nasty critter and the fact that while trying to burst the water bombs at my friends, the water splashed on me. Twice. What a loser! Must be bad karma!
The food was equally horrible (yellow noodles with prawns, rice with cabbage and rubber chicken) but I suppose you can't expect too much since we didn't pay any money. And I was reminded of the fact that I'm allergic to shellfish i.e. prawns, crab, LOBSTER etc! Bleddy shite! You know what that means??? It means that even if I steal a nano-sized bite of something with shellfish, my lips will will turn red, swell and rot (ok, i'm exaggerating!). All in a matter of minutes! Luckily I managed to find out the problem! So the allergic reaction is currently contained at the lips... Imagine if it did not, I may end up looking like some freak! This is sooo depressing (an emo moment here)!
Oh wells... Anyway, the kids in my group were the most well-behaved (as 2 out of 3 of them were of Type 2)and won the prize for the Most Co-operative Group! There was even a prize called the Good Progress Award (?!)! And this guy (the one who thought of the group name and the rejected cheer) actually wanted to treat us to drinks as he was feeling generous! $5.80 is a lotta money y'know!! And they were sooo thrilled at their prizes and goodie bags (cheap made-in-China stationary)... Hmm... Which made me think of the past when I was still in primary school. Easily contented, cute and innocent! HAH!
So... I guess I will have to say goodbye tomorrow as Hannah dearest will be coming home! HANNAH IS NOT DEAD ok!! My momma actually wanted to check is she was still alive on the 1st night! But I told her not to!
Have some faith la! LOL!
Krystal
Ok! There it is! Hmm... I suppose I could give you the link to my sis blog so that you can read the 3 posts that I wrote in there... Then again... Maybe NOT! Haha...

here you are.
then again, it's for those who CAN'T TAKE THE SUSPENSE.

CIP today was so much better than i'd pictured though not everybody could have made it. Some of the games were pretty dry cause of people like garthick who spotlight hogged. Grr. Yes it was quite annoying and for once, Kaishun flarred up! :D He was pretty feirce actually. But i couldn't help but laugh. 7th Heaven's the BEST.
And syafiq was so adorably adorable. And nice. And supportive. My son shall be like him one day. I'm so sorry if people don't know what im talking about.
Okay first and foremost, though im already in para 3, i want to thank EVADNE! Cause i think her job was pretty tough. Since she had to shout and scream to get the children's attention. Who were pretty cooperative if they wanted to be. They're all nic I don't understand how you kept your cool most of the time. Tblematic kids in the whole school. So YES! Thank you evadne! I don't understand how you kept your cool most of the time. Though you blew up at one of two kids.But yup overall, you rocked. Thank you!
And KAISHUN! Thanks for helping me, being there for all the meetings and organising the whole thing. And for gathering everybody that day though you were sick. You're the best. (:
And as for the rest, yup thank you thank you thank you. Really. I can't imagine what the camp would have been like if one of you weren't there. There'd have been this missing thingy thingy thing.. forget it. Bottom line, i appreciate it that everyone who made it made it. :D
Oh oh oh note to ANTHEA! Could we have the pictures for mid summer's nights dream! I'm really curious as to how it turned out and all.
And note to BEN! I was just thinking, could you maybe link that website where you've got all those pics to the class blog? So that our lives would be made easier. THANK YOU!
Sorry that i didnt cover the activities carried out today cause i just wanted to blog to say thank you and to talk to anthea and ben.
Oh okay wait wait wait. Interested or not, im still going to tell you.
I'M TAKING MY BRACES OFF SOOOOOON!
And the next time you guys see me, i won't be having my braces on. Please be excited with me.
So exciting
The audience will stomp and cheer
So delighting
It will run for fifty years
So exciting
The audience will stomp and cheer
