Ok, I had the intention to post yesterday, until I remembered that I was going to be in school for more than 12 hours. Yesterday was tiring, both physically, and mentally. Then again, school is usually like that.
So yesterday started with me waking at 7.30am. Structured lessons starts at 8.00am. I reached school at 8.05am, and I wasn't late. Why? This is because the lessons I had so far taught me that teachers are always 5mins late. In fact, there was this once when my art teacher forgot about a supplementry lesson he gave. At least he rushed to school and treated each of us to a packet of Milo.
Anyway, I had Chemistry (yay!!! One and half hours of Chem!!!) and Art yesterday. We learnt more about Organic Chemistry, I must say that is was very interesting lesson, much better than the *ahem* boring 'Moles' chapter. This may explain why I am so poor in that particular chapter.
After Chem , we had Art. After a short neogotiation with my art teacher, we agreed on a 1 hour break for lunch at 12.30pm. I did not bring anything but my colour pencils to do my colour studies. He wanted us to start on our canvas after the lunch break. 5mins later, WenYing asked Madeline and Sarah, "How do you paint on the canvas?" I remembered someone asking the same question last week, so Madeline and Sarah gave the answer they heard last week, "You take a paintbrush, dip it in paint, and paint on the canvas!" Poor WenYing, her question wasn't answered.
Once our lunch break came, I went searching for my wallet. Guess what? I left it at home. That would explain the I-think-I-left-something-behind feeling I had when I left home. I went home to grab it after lunch (I borrowed money from Madeline). Like I said above, I brought only colour pencils for Art. Thus I grabbed my painting materials and my wallet when I got home. It's good to live near your school.
We started with our canvas, all the way to 6.00pm. The results on what everyone did cannot be put in a sentence. However, I have three words for it: Wonderful, Beautiful, and Unqiue. Everyone started packing, and Sarah decided to bring hers home. The canvas was nearly half her size and she's bringing it home. The poor girl, she got her uniform dirtied because of it. So she had no choice but to 'advertise' her Art work as she walks home.
Art lesson ended, but I still had to attend an Arts excursion held at the Esplanade. It started at 8.00pm and ended at around 10.30pm. Guess who's the guest of honor? The President and his Wife! Oh my Gosh, we had to be so well-behaved, but not many really was (including myself), at least in my own opinion. I saw my English teacher there in the Esplanade, and she looked furious, most likely because we were making nosie. If you ever read this, I sincerely apologise.
The trip back to school was sqeezy as Steffi (who's a little plump) and Sukhpreet (who's also a little plump) were sitting beside me. It was a seat meant for two people, but three were sharing it. I was in between them. Need I say more?
I returned home at 11.00pm. And the show was too deep for me to understand. We were given a feedback form. If there was space for me to write some comments on the choice of show the school picked, I have quite a bit to write. But I'll summarize it into point form:
1) The show was too deep. I can't understand what the performance was trying to depict. 2) The seats chosen was too far away. I wasn't able to see the faces of the performers. 3) The seats were to high up, I freaked out when I saw where I was last year.
Suggestions to improve students' opinion towards Arts Excursions:
1) Pick a performance that students will enjoy. Having shows like the one we had makes us confused, very confused. Musicals are recommended. 2) Please pick seats closer to the stage. Students appreciate it if we could at least see the rough details of the performers.
Thank You very much.
Okay, I am late for dinner. Ah Ma is gonna call me again unless I get my butt there right now.
