AS THE ZEN MASTER SAYS IT: A SINGLE ROSE TO THE LIVING IS GREATER THAN A BOUQUET TO THE DEAD.

BigJ

A very very very long thank-you letter.

I think I'm going to regret posting this, since it was written in the middle of the night (or dead of the morning) with my brain half-gone.



This morning I could not sleep, so I looked through the SAJS and SASS Annuals from 2005-2008.

I must say it stirred something within me that made me write this down. It’s kind of like a speech – long winded and everything that Mr. Sim has taught us – but maybe more informal, since I’m addressing you guys.

It’s been 10 years, for those coming from the Junior School, and 4 years for those who have not (though I highly doubt you’re not from the JS).

What can I say. This is no longer writing a speech as a valedictorian. They always talk about how camaraderie is forged between classmates, how Chem Yeo would scream at them repeatedly until Chemistry facts would get stuck in their head, how fantabulous the teachers are. Maybe they are. But I guess all speeches are the same, because year after year of alumnae have come to appreciate the things that make Saint Andrews, Saint Andrews.

When I visited Saint Andrews in Scotland sometime last year, it was picturesque, quiet, scenic. Nothing like SASS. Rambunctious, rowdy, retarded guys in a school. 1000 of them crammed into one small campus. Deafening to my ear drums. Irritating bastards, I would think, and I thought right up till this moment.

Then I realised why you guys had thought me insensitive with the remarks I made post-grad ceremony. (I know, I don’t want to bring it up either, but we can learn from the past.) It’s because I didn’t see what it was about SASS that would be treasured in our hearts, then did I make those (very unintentionally) snarky remarks (at least to some people.)

I realised how each and everyone of us filled the cracks in the social walls like Polyfillia. 2-1. (Perhaps you won’t know this reference, unless you listen and follow Imogen Heap, which I know Jos and I do.) We fill the lack of grace and the need for attention with the consideration of our friends that we have had developed in this school. It’s no longer a school. I know, I have had harped on the fact that classes are not social gatherings, and they never were meant to be, even now. Nothing has changed.

But the school is a place of social cohesion, is it not?

In all honesty, our teachers are fantabulous. Without Mr. Ng we would never know that we only have to:

1. Believe we can do it.
2. Work hard.
3. Work up the pyramid of laying a foundation first, then etc.

… in order to fulfil our dreams and goals.

“A goal is an aspiration with a deadline.” I so remember, or something along those lines as he told us in A601 (i.e. Mathematics Arena.)

I think the 1B/2B guys were lucky to have nearly the same teachers throughout their 4 years in Secondary school, or perhaps only Mr. Ng was the constant within those four years, but coming from 1A/2A We changed teachers almost every half-year. It had no sense of identity, even coming from a class where co-operation was emphasised and teamwork was essential to projects launched at us at breakneck speed, rapid fire.

There were social cliques in 1A/2A, and every class has social cliques, but what I noticed that was different with 1B/2B/3SA/4SA was that: these social cliques could automatically band together to form a class. (With the exclusion of Elroy and Bart, Elroy because he is too shy and Bart because he is divine and thus a class of his own :P.)

I still can’t believe you guys supported the Choir/Drama for “A Beautiful City” even though you all knew it would be some potentially failure-esque halfway-house-ish kind of drama production that was spurned from the depths of madness from the director’s mind. You guys cheered. You guys laughed.

I think, no I know, that it was so because of Mr. Ng.

He was the glue that held us all together. Simple as that. Sometimes it was sticky UHU, slow to dry but strong. Sometimes it was Elephant Superglue, fast and strong, and rigid. Sometimes it was contact cement, damn slow but stuck for very long. And sometimes it was just water-glue or PVA, temporarily holding us down for lack of better reason.

But even so, he was still glue. And all the other teachers joined in him endeavour, to strengthen the class bonds. Even Mrs. Low noticed how people would defend each other for having been accused of talking in class. She eventually gave up sending people out of the classroom/lab.

Sometimes, we may have been superbly unappreciative of the privileges granted towards us, such as the fantastic MT teachers we have (Mdm. PPT and Ms. Oei were fantastic, because they dedicated their time and their effort to doing things out of a normal MT teachers’ comfort zone, and persisted with lectures and scoldings.) But as everyone knows, we don’t notice something good until it’s gone.

I hope that we will all go into JC (or Poly, for those who already know what they want to do) appreciating the effort that our tutors/lecturers put into bringing a lesson across, be it a mass lecture or a tutorial. Be grateful for notes (like SJJ’s and PPT’s and Chem Yeo’s and Mr. Low’s, etc.) Be grateful for out-of-syllabus knowledge. Be grateful for every single gesture, because you never know when you’d be removed from the system.

In Singapore, education is not a privilege, but something taken for granted. We should learn to know that it is not just an honour to be the school dux, but also an honour that we be educated by people willing to dedicate their lives to passing on the knowledge of their forefathers to the younger (apparently unappreciative) generation; people who are passionate about going the extra mile (or light-year). These are people who change lives. It is because of these people that Saint Andrews it the community that changes lives as well. Even if it may be Mr. Peter Tay (aka Pro Ah-Pek Mapler Captain Army guy) who consistently does not fail to forget whether he has taken our class, or teachers like Chem Yeo/Mr. Ng/Mrs. Low (the list is actually endless), they are teachers.

Of course, there are some exceptions. But I won’t go into that.



Mr. Ng, it has been a great, great, great (x100000) joy learning under your tutelage. Even though we might complain about Personal Effectiveness classes (Yes! I remembered the bloody subject name!) and the need to make the 4-column notes; even though we complain about palleral-ism; even though your joy and zest towards life and your perspective may occasionally appear superficial, even fake, you still continue to be the Zen master you are, living life to the fullest and holding no regrets. Even though sometimes you may be at the butt of (invalid) insults regarding your sexuality (as with Yau, we’re definitely not intending to turn you into a homosexual) and the occasional mumble of anger, you still always manage to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Always.

Because of you, I personally (and I assume a lot of us) have changed my view of life, shifting the camera angle to which I try not to pass judgement and no longer remain cynical. It is difficult, living like you do, learning like you do. Your concepts and your lessons on morals and life skills are impacting. In fact, impact-ful is an understatement. Grossly. You have taught us that we can control things within our circle, and that those outside of our abilities, we must leave to the natural cycle of events to fulfil. You have taught us belief.

You have taught us Mathematics in the most darned, unsure-est manner an Emaths/Amaths teacher could even teach, but still manage to instil in our heads (even if some of us don’t know how to complete the square, or modulate properly).

You never give up.

We are very grateful. Thankful. Appreciative. Glad. Honoured. Privileged. Fêted.

Thank you.



To all the teachers.

If I compiled a list of things we should be grateful for, it would stretch on for miles and miles of paper (as with most things).

We cannot express our gratitude. We know how lucky it is to have teachers like you in Singapore, here, within this fantastic education system. Yet we sometimes abuse it, and in the process, almost intentionally abuse your being.

I am guessing that the only way to repay you (not in terms of cash, nor in gifts) if to actually utilised the knowledge imparted to us through your daily doses of info, that we will carry it on, and develop it far beyond the boundaries of which you have set as guidelines for us here in Secondary School: to share this eventual development of knowledge, and to further pass it on to the next generation.

To all those who agree, we say yea.

That is, the 43 of us in 4SA, and the multitudes of others whom you have taught before. Even if we’re in London, Thailand, Myanmar, Japan, Korea: we still agree with all of our hearts.

Thank you is not worthy a phrase for the staff of SASS. Perhaps “domo arigatou gozaimashita” would escalate it to a pedestal bereft of slightly greater honour, but that would have to do.

Thank you.



I’m sorry to have put you through a 1.6k essay. :P You know how BenSee writes.

Ciao, until collection time.

FOR WoW ADDICTS

As We Go On..



And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when we leave this year we won't be coming back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of the night in June
I Didn't know much of love, but it came too soon
And There was me and you, and then it got real blue
Stay at home talkin' on the telephone and
We would get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at our selves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

Chorus:
As we go on, we remember
All the times we had together
And as our lives change, from whatever
We will still be, friends forever

So if we get the big jobs and we make the big money
When we look back now, will that joke still be funny?
Will we still remember everything we learned in school?
Still be trying to break every single rule
Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man?
Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels

*Repeat chorus*

La, la, la, la; yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la, we will still be friends forever

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there? Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're women and men
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us round?
Will these memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly

was in the midst of a 3 day event which took me and my committee some time to organise so did not reply your msg ! i was really busy these 3 days. dead tired but spiritually renewed ! i tot i can do it here all here rather than thanking one by one.

what was heart warming was to see the growth in all of you! carry on growing and never stop learning ! you are destined for success. You are all greater than who you are you are, aim high and achieve high. at least i know you at least did sth that we discussed and carry on doing it doing for the rest of your life: " a single rose given means more to a living than a bouquet to the dead, a single kind words means more to me now than your do it at my funeral"

thank you for exercising your thoughts

testi write-up

hi guys,

sawadeeka !! i am in thailand !

What amazes me is the ability for cars to go through in 2 direction without honKing. Thai pple are really patient and friendly despite circumstances( except peeratits.... joking:)) we must learn from them!

DESPITE THE CIRCUMSTANCE, HANG ON ! THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY OUT, AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL !! AND YOU WILL FINISH STRONG !!
I BELIEVE IN YOU ALL!

BTW it does not have to be a picture of you. It can be a drawing. I'm looking for some drawings please. That'll be what makes it quite special. What I required was "Something that represents you or something that you like that is unique to you."

Please don't give me a picture of Chem Yeo/The class/Mr. Ng. SOMETHING UNIQUE.

Thanks yous.

NOW GIVE IT TO ME.

List of people who HAVE given me their pictures:

Alex
Kyaw Min
Shawn Chin (YES!)
Jonathan
Luke
Bartholomew
Adam

In case any of you asks, I was in the CBL Lab using the mac doing this while waiting for it to be 9am. Oh, wait, it IS 9.

Physics Jave Apps

Anyone up for a good workout?

Josiah or Isiah if you will, is conducting jogging sessions for all those who want to keep fit during the June holidays. 1st session begun today with 5 very enthusiastic participants after class at 5pm. If i'm not wrong, slots are available at the present moment, so just give Jos/Isa a call and you should be running your way to healthiness.


Wise words from wise man cheeks

Wise man once said ..

You might think I`m a SEXmaniac !

BUT I AM !

A moment of contemplation in this deep deep meaningful proverb please .

Six Words

Pain is temporal, but failure is forever.

X-Country Aftermath

Special Mention: Josiah OUTRAN A LOT OF FIT PEOPLE. Mega Kudos to that. Honorary mention to JK's bag which was sacrificed in this valiant deed. Let us offer a moment's silence for its noble sacrifice.

After a 4.3 km morning, we have ended up with this:

  1. We won the Full-Pack Run. The bag resembles the bag Ming Sheng used to carry and is probably as heavy. Runners were: Edwin, Zong, Solo, Cheng En, Zul, Arvind, Russell, Eddy, Mervin, JK, Andre and Capt. Bryan. Total of 11 people and only 10 medals, so poor Mervin did not get one to due to circumstances I could not understand even though they were explained to me 10 times. So Kudos to Mervin! YEAH!


  2. Here, have a photo



  3. Chow Chow, Farmer Jack and Myanmar got into the top 20 individual runners.Farmer Jack and Myanmar should have been deported disqualified because they were late. >:D
  4. Josiah surpassed most expectations and ran way faster than most of us! Cheeks even jokingly wanted Josiah to have a special mention. Haha. Nice one man!


  5. Peeranin and I got picked for lucky draw. I was mistaken to be from 4SB. WTF.


  6. Umm... Gomes's Yaudirt ran like the wind in the Flag run. Thing is, Wind forget that his team are not "man-possessed" like him. So second.


  7. I managed to finish X-country without even thinking of running. Cheh.

So congratulations all you winners and almost winners.

On other news: Our neighbours are infamous now. And we have pushed the offending post down. YESH!

Neighbours

It's always nice to be nice to your neighbours. (Wait... Nice to be nice?)

Anyway, since our neighbours have shown their faces on our blog and made a song (Whether it is nice is iunno, my speakers were off), let's put their song up here.



Are they that desperate? Or did the MYE blow their brains to Mars?

Wise Man Once Said..

Wise man once said: "You only fail if you admit that you are defeated. So if you admit that you are defeated, that means you have failed."

Mythbusters ftw!

Check this video out. It has relation to what we been learning in Physics.

Laadeelaa

*pushes the depressing post below*

MYES ARE NEXT WEEK. JIAYOU!!! がんばってすようが!大胆に行きましょう!加油!Add oil!

*insert relevant translations for Malay and Tamil*

Ich Liber Dich? Nien!

Just something for you guys to think about.

Hej guys. Long post. Be bothered to read. It has to do with MYE.

You know when I post, it's usually something bad, or something personal, or something ballistic. Or something so insanely incoherent and technical that you usually don't understand all that whatchacamacallit behind terminology.

First things first: I have YET to script a new class blog layout because, well, I have yet to do so! I'm sorry, but you'll understand.

Then comes the bomb.

MYEs are two weeks away. TWO. 2. Deux. Ni. 两周.

I'm not here to make you guys happy. I'm not here to de-stress you. I'm here to call you to attention.

Some of you have tuition, and I'm aware of that. But even so, I think you should continue coming for Chemistry classes and instead of complaining to each other about how squeaky Mrs. Yeo's voice is and how you can't comprehend with anything she says. Because if you bother to listen to her, you won't need tuition. Unless you listen and you do badly.

I also think that you should come for Chinese class after 1.45pm because it's only out of respect that you do so. (Yes, I'm dropping a HUGE bomb here, and Mr. Ng is going to read this and the whole class is going to hate me, so there.) I admit I do fall asleep during Chinese class because I cannot comprehend with Mdm. Png at times. But I try to understand and do as she says, and only if I'm in a really bad mood do I totally blank out.

Don't tell me you have bad moods every Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursdays when she is teaching. Skipping class is not recommended. Especially when we have one goal. Don't tell me you forgot what that goal is, please.

I know some of you think Mrs. Low is trying to act cute. I know some of you think Ms. Nadiah is biased. Hell, some of you think all your teachers are biased. I know some of you think Mr. Lam is funny and relaxed and therefore you can talk. And I know because you think Mr. Sim is also equally insane that you can do the same in his class. And the biggest thing is that you all know Mr. Ng is such a nice guy that you think he'll allow you to just slack off in maths class and do all sorts of weird things. Come on, admit it. WE ALL KNOW THESE.

Let me spell it out for you guys.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T

Underlined, italicised, emboldened, large fonts. And rainbow.

It's the core to a teacher-student relationship. If they respect each other, they benefit off each other.

If you don't respect your teachers, they end up shouting at you, you end up angry, and we go nowhere. Same with complaining. Feedback is okay. Complaining is NOT.

I suggest you recall what our class has set out to do since 3SA. Very simple.

  1. Learn. (!)
  2. Love. (We already do.)
  3. Leave a Legacy.
The problems are with number 1 & 3. I don't have to reiterate, but are you going to continue disrupting class, letting teachers become frustrated just because you interjected at a seemingly right time out of the blue? Are you going to continue to frustrate half the class - who, essentially, wish to continue the learning process - with your incessant laughter and chatter?

I'm starting to sound like Mrs. Charles, but:

WAKE UP.

MYEs. 2 Weeks.

Are you going to do something about it? I know some of you will read this post and rant that BenSee if a jerk and is just *insert Chem Yeo voice* stupid. I know some of you will read this and try, but will forget 2 days later. I know some of you will read this and whack me in class.

No raping in the classroom.

But I think some of us have had enough.

Please think through this.

With much love and frustration:
BenSee

All go here.

Photographer Wanted?

Ok, as the textbox says, I'm banned from all electronics, inclusive of camera. (Which is quite outrageous, since i bought that with my part-time money.)

Even as of now, I'm being reduced to using the school comp for this post.\

Anyone wants to be the photographer? I understand that all of you doods want to play and APPEAR in the camera shots.

You guys probably take photos at times, (with a Digi, or DSLR, Idontcare) So just dump them at Russel's.

yo guys

just some food for your brian !!

Chp 16 Misc. Ex. Qn8.




Okay, and so I was walking past the bio lab 'till i met Mr. Ng.
Mr. Ng : "Adam! Do you know to do question 8 or not?"
Adam: "Er.. yeah.. why?"
Mr. Ng: "Okay.. Can you scan and put it on the class blog?"
Adam: "Er.. okay sure, why?"
Mr. Ng: "'Cos alot of people dunno how to do.."
-.-

Having fun?

Yes, it seems many of you are NOT playing at (a very rain-washed, damp and salty) Sentosa.

Rather. it was LAN time and Hunters ate your ass while Witches forced you all to hand on cliffedges, losing health and smokers sucked you all around. Fun eh?

Speaking of which, where ARE the Philippines students? They just seem to have lost interest in you doods. Novelty loses touch, eh?

BTW:

Update:

Chinese from 9AM to 11AM. Whatever happens there is probably just going to be scolding, but bring your books and whatever else. Being sent outside of class during school holidays is quite the Chin kind of thing to do.

Volunteers will proceed to slave-work at M.Ng's after that. Cannot remember who's going, but Chin is.

Special Note: (Even though I expect Aaron not to read this)
You better die die bring your E.Maths file and A.Maths Exercise book. No idea why. Same goes to all other volunteers. Bring it. Chin, that goes double for you.

Did you know that...

Funny jokes

Hi all, Calvin sent me this joke and i thought it pretty funny. This should lighten the spirit amidst the stressful CT period


i knew a girl that was so stupid that...
1. She called me to get my phone number.
2. She spent 20 minutes looking at the orange juice box because it said 'concentrate.'
3. She put lipstick on her forehead because she wanted to make up her mind.
4. She tried to put M&M's in alphabetical order.
5. She sent me a fax with a stamp on it.
6. She tried to drown a fish.
7. She thought a quarterback was a refund.
8. She got locked in a grocery store and starved to death.
9. She tripped over a cordless phone.
10. She took a ruler to bed to see how long she slept.
 11. She asked for a price check at the dollar store.
12. She studied for a blood test.
13. She thought Meow Mix was a CD for cats.
14. When she heard that 90% of all crimes occur around the home, she moved.
15. When she missed the 44 bus, she took the 22 bus twice instead.
16. When she took you to the airport and saw a sign that said 'Airport Left' she turned around and went home
