Same here.. dropped German after sec 3 due to parental pressure..

Sad... Actually now that I think about it, maybe possible to do the O levels paper as a private candidate? BTW, is ur sch really that bad in terms of facilities?? But uniform nicer mah...
 


talking abt makeover, any of you interested to do as a group in one of those makeover shops not? not very ex la, about $150+ maybe.
 
now of cos not lah. the kids now get a spanking new building in the heart of sg leh. in its old location a lot of ppl din even know there was a sch there, what more a 'branded' one.

we only had half classrooms with one ceiling fan and those chairs with pathetically puny 'desks' attached. u'd still kena chalk dust even if u sit at the back of the class cos with a grand total of 2 rows of chairs, u'r only 3m from the board. worst was during class tests, we had to write for 1+hrs on that 'desk' which kept sliding down and refused to lock in place. there was once i couldn't lift my head after the test cos my neck and shoulders ached so badly!

proper classrooms were a rare sight until they built 10 container classrooms at the backyard, which were mainly used by the humans scholars. i think if u studied there u'd climb 4 floors to use the toilet everytime cos the ground level toilets were smelly, filthy and cramped. lockers were rusty and creaky. haha i really made it sound quite terrible hor.

imagine the shock when i visited HC. it was such a stark contrast. they had huge fixed classrooms (we used the floating system), air-conditioned ones for the humans and LEP scholars, with dedicated class benches and so many canteens to choose from!!

but then I liked it there la. the graffiti-filled lockers/ground/walls made it very homely in a way. and i preferred having a compound with white walls to a... er... beige one (oops!). looked more cheerful and spacious. the campus was very small so there was a lot of ren2 qi4 wherever u went. but that also meant less places for hanky panky la haha. ;)

and yes I really liked the uniform. hee. i don't think i'd have managed well having my movement restricted by an A-line skirt!

*sigh* those were the days!!
 
g~gal, why would you wanna take german 'O' levels now? cannot just take a course outside meh? or is there any internationally recognised proficiency test that you can take?

latino, me no money... until i pass my driving. wahaha.
 
rara, you sure pass. 10 may is it? what time? .

ok, wait for you to pass and get the best offered job. when got money, we all go and do wonders ...kekeke. salsa will be greatly delighted.

Rara, I meant now that I think abt it, it may be possible then to do an O levels in german last time. Din think abt it then. Of coz now I wun wanna do an O la.. haha..

HCJC where got so many canteens to choose from?? Your school sounds really lok kok last time.. haha..

Latino, makeover? Individual ok la.. but as a group?!
 
tat's more like it!

ask u ladies...which buffet is better?

The Line @ Shangri-la / Oscar's @ Conrad / Summer Place @ The Regent / Triple 3 ?
 
latino, u got it wrong lah. salsa like to beo da bor leh. we do until so pretty for what? haha we shud remain as plain as poss so she can stand out among us! ;)

g~gal, got leh, i thought there were 2 canteens in hc? haha but i know it's 3 canteens in total with then-tchs combined.
 
Salsa, I never been to all those buffets.. but heard Oscar's is good for their Sunday Brunch. Triple 3 is at Mandarin right?? That's not bad too. My favourite buffets are Olive Tree at Intercon and previous Cafe Vienna at Royal Plaza but long time never go liao... I eat buffet bor hua...:P

RaRa.. got 2 canteens meh??? No mah... every school only got 1 unless u're counting NJ's one opp.. hahaa..

ah siao... cannot hor!! That one is no bargain one. BB must be made in a honeymoon destination of my choice lor. How can simply make in Bali... :P 4 days not enuf also.. kekeke..
 
vanessa! i read thru your earlier posts today.

your wedding is in 2008. you asked whether it is too early to invite your guests.

usually preparations will start abt one year before AD. there are other things you should do first before invitation to guests. on top of my head, you need to arrange for both sets of parents to meet each other, get auspicious wedding date, venue etc.

looks like you really not sure what to do, perhaps you like to ask for help in the other weddings threads. that's what this forum is all about...for wedding preparations etc. you can start off by reading what other brides are doing. do some research yourself, take notes as you go along, slowly everything will come to place.

this singles thread is probably not an appropriate place to ask for such advice. it is a very rojak thread. sometimes there could be more than 2 topics being discussed at the same time, so ppl might not take note of what you asked. also this thread can move very fast on certain days.

hope this helps.

Vanessa, great tat you've got started. Maybe you wanna go else where to talk abt your wedding plans cos we're not really interested. we only talk abt crazy stuff here. wedding plans abit too serious la.

Morning peeps... my colleague is back from maternity so less workload for me now
happy.gif
At least that's what I believe...

ah siao, I mean 4 days is not enuf for honeymoon la... My dream destination is the land of vodka and matryoshka dolls... Mother Russia!! *day dreaming* But I also like exotic places like Turkey and Egypt.
 
haha g gal..tat's wat u think..u might be as biz as b4....

ya, 4days indeed not enuff for honeymoon.need at least a wk....n wah seh, ur dream destination will cost a lot leh..n hor, dun forget u still need to feed ur new car
 
Morning everyone,

Talking ab making baby. I was make in Holland... haha but born in this "Fine" country. My sis was make in Singapore but born in Holland.

I would like my honeymoon baby make in Japan thou. Kawaii!! But I think too early to make one during Honeymoon... not so fast make. Unless my honeymoon defer until 2 yrs later la... maybe can.
 
ggal wan to make bb liao huh?

van, r u beri young? and y r u so jin zhang over the guestlist? tink, u shld get the rest of the tings done first before u tink of the guestlist. coz if things are nt done, like venue nt book, date nt selected, then there be no guestlist to talk abt liao. somemore, u shld only worry abt ur own frenz and i tink ur own frenz shld more or less noe wen u getting married liao...as for relative and parent frenz, leave it to ur parent or PIL to worry....
 
ok, i tink u shld settle one ting at a time. first u got to book watever u nid to book first
as for guestlist, it is the most taxing and everchanging. on ur AD there will be people sms u nt coming also de or worse nv even inform. invitation cards usually are send out abt 2-3 wks before AD. for relative, it will be send out on ur GDL date. wat u can do is only get a verbal confirmation of ur frenz attendance before u sent ur invites. even so, there are still people who will tua u and no show de.

so even if u inform damn early also no use. coz as human, wen tings dun really concern us, we will hardly remember de. so likely some will still forget and hv make other appt before they receive ur invites or before u verbally remind them again closer to ur AD date de. somemore, even if u inform all ur frenz nw, in the end, u might nt be able to invite all due to no seat as either ur parent or PIL might hv last min. increase their no. of guest, so u can only cut urs to accomodate theirs.
 
Diana coz for my side easy to tell them..can tell them CNY LOL..all will be there...just that not sure when to send out nia...coz hoping when my dad comes bk from business trip can meet my FH's family to see if can do next yr as my mum said can loan us the cash...
 
vanessa, if everything is still so tentative then any advice given here wouldn't help much mah.

u shud sit down and do proper planning with ur bf and ur respective families then get down to booking the relevant stuff!!
 
for me, if i nid to take a loan to get married, then i rather dun coz tat will mean i be in debt after married. and if really tight budget, i rather do a simple one mayb wif out the dinner. somemore, how will ur FH and his parent feel and tink wen ur mum hv to come out wif the $$ first....these are sensitive issue which nid to consider....
 
ya ya the one that i want very very much.

I'm exhilarated yet super nervous!! still 2.5wks more to the interview. the MD said he was only gonna choose 2 ppl for 2nd round. *bites nail*
 
diana i ask my mum liao..she said will help pay then i use the angpao money after the dinner..coz she said i wont have time to count and pay the restuarant....i can't dont do without dinner...as i m the 1st to get married...no choice...
 
Van,
when is ur big day ah.. seems like u r really gearing up for it..

Rara,
wahhh.. so good ah?? like wat salsa say ur good!!
