Question: How do you know when the weather is too damn hot?
Answer: When the bloody PC overheat and reboots as you are typing your blog.
now what was i typing... c if i can recall...
I think i'm falling in love with no. 1 and no. 2! they r the best boss i've ever met ( heheh, that doesn't mean much, considering they r my first boss ever).
no. 1 OKed the ‘archery within shooting club’ idea when gilbert spoke to her about it... talk about forward looking leadership... i mean how more forward looking can one get if she can [A] approves of a cca that doesn't have a (ccab-recognised) interschool event (yet) and therefore [B] earns the college ZERO points for the sustained achievement award thingy but yet [C] will potentially drain precious financial resources from the college. now all i have to do is to convince the rest of the cmc... especially hIm. can't have gilbert fight all my battles. haven't decided when or how to settle this... have i got enuff ammo? or should i conspire with terriss in his plot to replace the current aas dynasty and thru the new-and-improved (i hope) aas, get the attention of sssc and ccab. But this will take forever since the agm is in june and moreover aas has enuff trouble getting support from ssc as it is. Then again, I dun have to go thru all this bs. i can always use no. 1 to override hIm. But i’m very reluctant to do this… least of all cause he’s a good person and a fren. more importantly, i’m still not 100% sure that njc is the ONE. Am I prepared to start the war and see it to the end?
haizz, to date the college has yet to give archery a single cent. hmm... maybe the college already did... no. 1 did agree to let me use $100 from the shooting club budget for the cdans affiliation fees. Oops… this reminded me… have yet to get my receipt from terriss… must ask from him tomolo… if not I can’t claim my 100 bucks. Toking abt money, i just got my first credit card statement today. Man was I shocked. How the hell did I spend almost $600 in the past couple of weeks? nice Citibank electronic statement even have a pie chart that breaks down my spending into different category… Entertainment 57%... Transport 23%... Shopping 3%... Others 17%. wah kaoz, even my consumption pattern oso can automatically break down. really makes one wonder what kind of data Citibank is keeping abt me.
Anyway, back to the fantastic leadership in school… no.2 damn solid man… finally we have someone who can walk the talk… she’s one of the very few people who can say “student-centered” and I actually believe she meant it. wah seh, her reaction to Friday’s fiasco was rather unexpected… her emails actually sounded quite sincere … i mean, no. 1 and no. 2 are handling this matter personally man! Now that’s student development. NJC will no longer churn out apathetic sheep into society, (It's alive!) muhuhahahaha.

Tried to give them time in class to finish it but a few oso bochap… rather waste time tok kok sing song. One even stone… wat a waste, one of my brightest kid some more… must come up with more engaging stuff in class. every class’s ability so disparate… how to keep everyone awake, haiz.
