The year that earth moved slower

going for countdown?..
remember to add 1 more second to your last 10 seconds because our dearest Earth has moved slower this year..
well well..
lets recall and review the year 2008
January
the year started quickly..
JC2 now.. no more playing and fooling around..
got a change of teachers
for General Paper.. Mrs Josephine Wong is replaced by Ms Joanne Raj..
for Economics.. Mrs Christina Tan to Mrs Sim Lay Peng
for Maths.. Mr Tan Soi Cheng to Mr Chong
For Chemistry.. Mrs Jess Wong to Mr Kenneth Yang
for Physics.. Mr Lim Teck Seng to Ms Low
for PE.. Mr Alan Tan to Mr Teng
yes it is.. the whole change in the teacher squad for 2007's 1S20, 2008's 2S17
Lennon and Huay Xhin replaced Baron and Guan Jie..
miss the two Chong Hua jokers lots man..
and distinctively Lennon was loner and kept to himself for a few weeks..
sat at one corner and stone his way through the lessons..
until when Jun Liang and i brought him into the guys group..
celebrated Jun Liang's 18th at his place..
saw his Mother for the first time.. wow,, beautiful man..
and young too haha..
had a great time with the others playing xbox and taboo..
orientation for the first intake started on the second next..
the whole duration for the orientation..
only 10 was left in class..
the rest are OGLs and Games-ic
i remembered one very lesson with Mrs Sim..
8 of us stand at the back of the class..
and left with 2 having tutorial with her.. haha..
forget the reason for that already..
study group was formed..
Audrey Sikai Xiongwei Felicia...
Audrey had a secret then.. leading for the Yangshuo Trip..
and now.. she has found her love and im so very glad..
harsh and cruel studying stress builds up quickly..
i remember i found it hard to even breath properly..
and issues started to shoot up suddenly every now and then..
CCA fair for the first intake was a sucky one..
people just come as they like..
had a few shots and few and thats it..
the second time was better.. we got to choose properly with Mr Ng and Ms Lin's technique
remembered how harsh we are on this 560 guy.. haha
Shooting training was getting more intense..
NTU NUSIS and Nationals coming our way..
i believe all my shooters will always remembered how hard they train
and also felt the bitterness when results doesnt show up with their increase in hardwork
fortnights after fortnights... we all grew as a team..
achieved my first achievement of the year..
completed my 100km challenge..
Mr Teng urged me to go for 200km and i did..
i never thought i could finish 200km in this year..
well well.. its something to keep me moltivated..
February
Chinese New Year given all of us a break from school..
especially this year..
the break was really well enjoyed..
visited my former secondary school and caught up with my teachers..
hope they are still doing well now
felt like a De Javu...
the same quarter of the year..
JC1.. and JC2.. the threat to destroying my own relationship...
its my own fault
come to think about it..
these 2 experience made me realise that i actually love my girlfriend more than i imagine..
i still kept the letter that my girlfriend sent me..
Jun Liang was there for me.. cried my heart out in the toilet with him..
returning back to class.. i think Mr Chong knew somehow that i have problems and gave that look to me..
greatly appreciated
NTU Invitational Shoot..
the team all did pretty well..
most of them got their personal best..
i could remember Wanyin was on a super train to perfection..
and most of them had their first external shoot unlike Timo and i..
during the celebration at Swesens after the NTU shoot..
Lennon reveal the SRJC Shooting internal secret for the century...
for that..
everyone was stunned

Common Test of the year..
failed almost everything...
many of us was getting the heat on our shoulders as results doesnt reflect on our papers..
Zhuo Ying came to and cried and thats when she started to talk a whole lot more to me..
i exited the live of a loner and came off to be an independent person..
thanks to my gf again..
new J1s officially joined Shooting..
and the Shooting camp started quite soon..
Shuqi overall incharge the camp and i assisted her in everyway i can..
theres some ups and downs during the camp and i think all of us grew together..

April
parents night was a shocking one..
my Mother was told that im top 30 in the cohort when there were Us and Ss..
Mr Yang briefed us on the plan of the year.. and what to expect as we faces the ultimate goal..
