Chinese New Year's Eve (Reunion Lunch)
Chinese New Year's Eve
I think that I woke up quite early today, which meant that everyone else hardly had any sleep? From what I recalled, I went to bed at around 12.30am with Callum, Valen and my mom. When I woke up, the time was around 7.45am. Only my brothers and I were in bed =.=
Breakfast in Segamat is a thing that we all look foward to. Yes, THOSAI CHEEEESEEEE (Nicholas you drooling now?) and ROTI PISANG. Uncle Cheng, Callum, Valen and I went to the mamak shop by car (it was still drizzling a little) while Aunty Lilian and my mom came later by foot when the rain stopped.
Valen ate half a thosai cheese, and Uncle Cheng took over the other half. Angie joined us for breakfast too, and ate 1 thosai cheese. Uncle Cheng ate 2 thosai pisang. Callum ate 2 thosai cheese, and I ate 2 thosai pisang. It was super wonderful. Here are some pictures to get you all drooling. Hehe...
Thosai Cheese champion eater - Callum the non magnificent.
Whoa!
Yes he can finish it all actually, but he only ate half a piece.
Aunty Lilian and my mom sitting at another table.
Uncle Cheng and Valen
Angie arrives.
This is my breakfast *grins*
I bet he's enjoying it yeah? *Smirks* (Nicholas you done drooling?)
We went home after the meal and started preparing for the Reunion lunch, featuring our professional chefs - grandma, Yvonne and Lilian. And while this was all happening, Uncle Cheng, Angie, Callum and I found a deck of cards to play with.
Playing cards with Angie, Uncle Cheng, and Callum.
Look at them wow. From left to right, Gameboy Advanced SP, Blackberry 9000, Gameboy Advanced.
Ah gong's laptop
If only he had that much hair yea? Taken with my handphone camera.
Uncle Cheng uses Bear Hug! Valen is trapped!
FOOD!!!
I have no pictures of the feast since I was wolfing down on my lunch as well. This year we had noodles instead of usual rice. The major dishes are as usual, steamed fish with tomato sauce, my favourite eggs and pork, and some other stuff.
Tomorrow I shall upload some of the tea giving ceremony photos. Before I go off, I would like to wish everyone Gong Xi Fa Chai!

5L's New Teachers
As the whole 5L classmates know, we have some new teachers, taking over the old previous ones. Though I would feel better if the teachers continued teaching us, it could be a better start if we changed new teachers (with the exception of Mr. Shariff =.=). I will give some of my opinions on the new teachers. 5L classmates give some comments yeah ^^
History
Original Teacher : Pn. Rohana
New Teacher : Pn. Nor Azizan
My comment : For the first time ever, I actually never yawned in History class. This has to be a miracle. I guess she was too hyperactive for me to go to sleep. The way she teaches is... abit different from the other teachers, probably funnier, but nevertheless effective in its own way. Hopefully it stays that way so I can be awake =.=
Civic
Original Teacher : Pn. Hasmizan
New Teacher : En. Shariff
My comment : This teacher... Speaks faster than your ears can catch it. Even worse, its in Bahasa Malaysia, so I have more difficulty in catching what he says. He's mumbling away faster than a chirping bird. And his jokes are super cold. Usually it ends up with 2 things : Either we don't get his joke, or he mumbles too fast and we can't hear it. Either way, in the end the class makes a fake laughter =.=
Biology
Original Teacher : Pn. Go Tsing Tsing
New Teacher : Pn. Hasmizan
Yeah, my previous civic teacher is now my new Biology teacher. She's actually quite good, and I'm one of her favourite students (other than being a good boy this is my favourite subjects). If she could speak a little louder during class, I think that she'd make a fine teacher.
As for our Chemistry teacher, Pn. Siti Azam, she told us that she will not be teaching us anymore. It's a real sad thing, but I'm glad for her. She was promoted form a normal teacher to Guru Kanan Sains dan Matematik (Something like a person in charge of the science and maths papers and whatnot). Other than her, there are 2 more teachers in my school teaching chemistry - Miss Lim and Miss Yip.
Miss Yip : From what I heard about her from the other students, she's pretty strict, and my class would probably suffer if she teaches us xD
Miss Lim : I know nothing about her, and I hardly see her in school.
Oh well, guess its time to move on.
Gong Xi Fa Chai~~~~

Frog Dissection (Biology)
I guess it was about time we chopped something up yeah?
Note : This is a detailed description of the dissection class. Currently I have no pictures to show, but I'll upload them when I get them from my classmates.
Pn. Hasmizan really picked a good date to do this gory yet fun event. A Saturday replacement school day, usually our class will have quite alot of absent students, but since teacher wanted to do a dissection on this particular day, I am proud to say that our class had a full attendance (with the exception of Win Meng, and Zheng Hoe came but wasn't in class). Even Suki who had a fever, still came for the frog dissection.
Before Biology class it was Puan Shi's class. And when the bell rung and she didn't hear it, the students were already begging her to let us go to the Biology lab. And soon everyone was rushing out from the classroom to the Biology lab (most of them stopped by the restroom first). I reached the Biology lab first, and the lab assistant asked me to help in holding that frog-filled plastic bag. I never thought that the frogs's size were THAT big. They were bigger than my palm outstretched.
5 frogs in a white plastic bag. The smell is terrible too. The lab assistant took some cotton wool, and dabbed some chlorofoam onto it. Then, I opened a little hole for the lab assistant to put in the chlorofoam dabbed cotton. And I closed the bad tight. The frogs began struggling and jumping non stop. It seemed that one cotton wasn't enough, so the lab assistant put in another one, followed by the last cotton. Soon the plastic bag became still - frogs knocked out cold.
By now all the students reached the Biology lab already, and I took the plastic bag from the chemical store room into the main lab hall. I took a couple of gloves and put'em on as told by the teacher while she was explaining to the students how to dissect the frog properly by using the dissection tools. It seemed that nobody dared to take the frogs out of the plastic bag, so I volunteered. I have 2 reasons for this :
1. If nobody wants to do it, then there will be no dissection, simple as that.
2. Since I'm thinking of being a Zoologist, might as well try this stuff ANYWAY...
I reached down into the plastic bag and got a grip on the first frog. My first impression - Slimy... And that wasn't all, its soft, slimy and squishy stomach added to the difficulty of taking it out. So I had to put my palm under the whole frog and lift it out. The sensation was oh-so-slimy-and-yuckish. I'd be better of with snakes. And my ears were sore from the non stop high pitched screaming and wailing of the girls (which is even worse because there are more girls than boys in my class). I distributed the 5 frogs to the 5 groups. I washed my gloves clean and got ready for the dissection.
In the dissection kit, there were
A magnifying glass (Organ close up?)
2 Scapels (Slice and dice with it, but these were too rusty and blunt)
2 pincers (Pinch and pull the organs/skin with this)
2 scissors (There are 2 different scissors, one was easier to cut with)
4 pins (To hold the frog down in a cross shape incase the chlorofoam wears off and it jumps around)
We started by pinning the frogs limbs onto the dissection board. We pinched up the skin, and started cutting it open. We could see muscles, flesh, blood vessels everything. Once the skin was wide opened, we proceeded to cut through the flesh. And the first thing that came out the hole - some black stuff with white spots. Bingo, eggs, we have ourselves a female frog. Apparently these eggs weren't fertilised yet, as frogs do external fertilisation instead of internal. And as we cut more of the flesh, more eggs squeezed out of the open wound. We had to really open a big wound to see the interior. We removed the eggs, and voila, the intestines, stomach, lungs, kidney all still there. And the heart was still beating.
Then I stopped and thought "Where's the air sac?". All the other groups had one big inflated pinkish organ (air sac) but our frog didn't have one. Well that would be impossible now would it? Unless somebody burst it by accident. Or maybe it wasn't inflated when the frog passed out. We continued to explore the interior. The intestines were absolutely LONG. I can say that 60% of the frog's interior were the intestines. We dug deep in until we reached the spinal cord (Wow dude lol). By that time, Biology class time was almost up. We put the frogs in a red container to be buried. The dissection tools were washed and immersed in disinfection fluid (Dettol) and the gloves were disposed.
We left the class and went to the canteen for reccess. It was a fun and knowledgeable experience, but some classmates had lost the appetite to eat...
Oh well. That's all folks!

Funny day much?
I MUST write about what happened today lol.
It was something like being flashed back into primary school or even kintergarden...
After recess, we had Sivik class by En. Sharif. He was teaching us about some studyin for the long term in your life thingy. His point was to make us understand that we have our own goals, and we use different ways to get it.
And what happened was, he ask us to be in groups of four, and he gave us one page of newspaper each - and asked us to fold a paper aeroplane <<<< OMFG? He stapled the remainder to the notice board at the back of the class. We needed to throw our paper planes and hit the "target" on the notice board =.=
Seriously? Some class it turned out to be lol. Everybody was busy folding away, and each group had 1 plane thrown, missed, and knocked into somebody. Congratz to Suki, Joyce, and the rest who got a direct hit from the paper planes hehe...
Wai Yap's plane was the most funny. It was a sphere like object with 2 miniature wings. They stuffed a rubber inside to make it heavier. This plane nearly hit the target, just went abit too left.
So in the end, Mr. Sharif made his point clear - We all have different ways of trying to reach our goal, some goes this way some goes that way. Funny, yet makes sense.

A JoKe
Here's a simple yet funny joke for those of you who want some cheerin' up :)
A husband and wife are sitting quietly in bed reading when the
Wife looks over at him and asks the question....
WIFE: "What would you do if I died? Would you get married again?"
HUSBAND: "Definitely not!"
WIFE: "Why not? Don't you like being married?"
HUSBAND: "Of course I do."
WIFE: "Then why wouldn't you remarry?"
HUSBAND: "Okay, okay, I'd get married again."
WIFE: "You would?" (with a hurt look)
HUSBAND: (makes audible groan)
WIFE: "Would you live in our house?"
HUSBAND: "Sure, it's a great house."
WIFE: "Would you sleep with her in our bed?"
HUSBAND: "Where else would we sleep?"
WIFE: "Would you let her drive my car?"
HUSBAND: "Probably, it is almost new."
WIFE: "Would you replace my pictures with hers?"
HUSBAND: "That would seem like the proper thing to do."
WIFE: "Would you give her my jewelry?"
HUSBAND: "No, I'm sure she'd want her own."
WIFE: "Would she use my golf clubs?"
HUSBAND: "No, she's left-handed. "
WIFE: -- silence --
HUSBAND: "sh*t."
ROFL!!!

SiViK tEaChEr - En. Sharif O.o
Today... Our class got a new sivik teacher - En. Sharif.
He's a normal teacher, just that he talks TOO FAST. Yeah, we could hardly understand what he's saying. Its like needing time to decode some stupid code or something @@ And his jokes are super cold, as cold as the icy pole to the north @@ We needed to pretend to laugh at his jokes if we didnt understand... =.= Below is an example.
Student : Cikgu, itu question mahu copy tak?
En. Sharif : Kopi tak mahu, teh mahu.
...
......

Haihz....

1st DaY oF sChOoL 2009
School finally reopens today. I woke up at 5.50 this morning == Took my shower, breakfast, packed my bags and went to school. Met up with buddies that I have never seen for 2 months xD. A new bunch of form 3s came of course.
Nothing much to say actually, this day was kinda boring.
(Sing this with the "on the first day of christmas" song) On the first day of school my headmaster gave to me : A forty minute long speech.
And that's not all, we went to class and the 4 periods before recess were totally free. Some classmates went to take the form 5 textbooks but that was about the only event.
Pn. Yana came after recess and started copying the new timetable for us. We have some new teachers to take over our previous ones - Pn. Hasmizan will be taking over Pn. Go in Biology, Pn. Suraihan (Dunno if its the right spelling) will be taking over Pn. Loo in Physics, and En. Tarmizi will be taking over En. Firdaus in PJ. Ps if I forgotten others. Later she appointed the class commitee members. And now I proudly present our 5L AJKs @@:
5L Class Monitor : Dee Huai Zhi
Assistant Monitor : Joyce Ang
Treasurer : Lim Su Wern
AJK Keceriaan : Ng Vee Nee
: Lee Kar Wei
: Alan Khoo
Cleanliness : Me =.=
Furniture : Yee Yung Chuen
And Pn. Mary gave us homework on our very 1st day. Could it get any worse? =.=
