I know that I have tonnes of homework waiting for me in my backpack but I’m still going to blog first ! Ain’t I such a faithful blogger ? Okay I’m not. Heh. Was just trying to lie through my teeth.

Yupp. Quite obvious on what I’m going to type about. The “Track and Field Meet 2009″ ! In other words, sport’s day (:

The lessons ended with humid and hot weather. There were so many people trying to get out of school but failed because the school was clever to lock up the gates. And it was even more difficult to get early leave forms or should I say to get it approved. The point I want to make was, I’ve learnt so much things today, whether it was through observations or others.

The first thing that really puzzled me was how unappreciative people can be. Or should I say how self-centered teenagers are nowadays. Disappointed ? Actually I’m more ashamed to be grouped together. I’m not exactly insulting or referring to anyone in particular. But it seems like we have lost the ability to think about others before our desires. Just because you want to go home early, you try all means to leave school. But think about, what about the efforts that were made by the school and students ? They didn’t do all these to celebrate this event by themselves. I think it’s important that we learn to enjoy and appreciate what others do for us even if we don’t really want to be involved or it is against our wants. And if you really immerse yourself in it, you might in the end enjoy it.

That’s what I did. I really enjoyed today’s event. It was a good job done there (: Congratulations everyone. Well, back to the story, my friends and I approached the grandstand and insisted to sit together despite the pleas by the emcees :X I mean, let’s celebrate all together ! Why split ourselves up in houses ? 

The event started off with JiaWei reciting the pledge. She was the most suitable person to do it since she’s so sporty and all. Then followed by Mdm Koh igniting the torch.

The first race started with Girls 100metres sprint. Pertunia won the second place ! She’s really fast ! Awesome ! xD For guys, we all agreed that they were too fast to be seen. Next was 800metres girls and boys which meant 2 rounds around the track. This year, someone managed to overtake Julia but they are in the same house. Cool ! I mean Julia is already SO fast, and now we have another one. The third race was 1500metres for guys. Oh weird. Why is it only guys ? I wonder why too. I didn’t realise until now. Strange. But anyways, Canberra won ! Yay ~! We were busy laughing at .. (Don’t wana type it here. Might not survive tomorrow in school P )

Next up was the most anticipated event ! Okay fine. At least in my opinion ! The cheerleading competition ! The first house to start off was Admiralty. This year, all the houses were really creative and each one was so enjoyable. Admiralty started off with macho moves and ended off with sleazy ones. They brought up the mood for the following houses. Enough said, here is the video for Admiralty’s house. Pardon me for it being so small. I should have zoomed in. Anyways, thanks to WenJia for helping me to capture these ! (:

After Admiralty was Canberra house. They started with really hot moves (I think the credit is due to Lynnette and I wonder if there were some WonderGirl’s dances inside ) . Lynnette was lifted the highest, I think she’s really LIGHT !

Next up was Peirce house. It was really good ! Not to forget that there were dance juniors, Pauline and Jermyn inside. I love the way how they match the moves with the song. I really wanted to watch it again. And I got to ! ( Shall tell you why later). They were a little messy at first but got into the mood really fast. It was really awesome ! Their expressions and all (though you can’t see it in the video ><” ) So sorry. And they even made it funny so that we would enjoy it further. The funny parts included the guys doing the sleazy moves. And I really loved the parts where the girls were lifted up. Cool ! Good job guys !

Encore for Peirce house

After that, it was Rodney house. The number of people seriously shocked me. Oh, and there are SO many dance juniors inside. Not sure if I did left out any, but the ones I saw were Candice, JingJing, Felicia, Grace, LiMin and XiShi. And of course they contributed a major role to the cheerleading. It started off with all of them doing splits. It sent the entire crowd into cheers . The cheerleading continued with moves that feel like what we learnt in dance :X Is that the influence of the dancers ? Heh I love the part when the song go “I’m a star” and they did star jumps. It was so cute ! And also the guy who did that double somersault. Totally COOL. Gosh. Personally, I feel that their cheerleading was the best. Their cheerleading ended off with a guitar piece. It was quite hilarious but it was refreshing.

Last but not least was Seletar house. Though they lacked in numbers, their cheers did not lose out at all. And the funny dance moves just kept sending the audience into laughters. Great job everyone ! D

The competition results are as follows with the Peirce being awarded the first, Rodney the second, followed by Admiralty, Canberra and Seletar.

After that, was the relay races. Darn. I wanted to ask Jeannette and the others if they wanted to join. I mean it’ll be really cool and it was the only race I can participate in -_- Because I’m .. how do I say this in english ? My reaction is really slow. I remember during secondary school sport’s day, I participated in the 100metres race and it was really embarassing because I didn’t run when the horn went off. I waited for a split second before running. Or should I say I saw them running, then I started running. But it was a little too late -_- Oh well. But I wasn’t the last few, so I guess it was okay :X When I went back to the seats, I remembered my friends laughing at me. Oh well. Let bygones be bygones.

Canberra came in second for girls ! Relay ~! Congratulations ~!! The other anticipated race was the staff race. Rainbow team which is made up of all the relief teachers won. I mean hello ?! There were only 3 teachers but 1 is a PE teacher, the other was the ex track and field captain. How could they lose ? The way they run is so … hot . LOL. I mean it’s SO FAST. They are like road runners ~ “beep beep” . The other teachers were awesome too. Some could really fun. I remember this really funny scene where Mr Leong was running right in front of us and he was running in this comical way. Then he turned around to check if anyone was catching up. Then there was Mr Sim who was just behind him trying his best to catch up with him. The funny thing was, their speed wasn’t that fast. And so that scene lasted for like a few seconds. It was so hilarious. I still can remember it vividly in my head. Anyways Canberra won second !

The mini Olympic race was quite funny. It was seriously messy and we saw Salizan tripping over someone else which led him to losing the volleyball. Then it was rolling on the floor. I think he was shocked and was puzzled if he was supposed to continue running. LOL . And the other shocking thing was that Canberra won ending with ShiYan hitting the volleyball with his head and dribbling the soccer ball to the finishing point. I mean, that scene was so soccerball-ish and we didn’t even notice Canberra at all. I think we won most probably there weren’t any hiccups.

The last race was really such a waste. Wait, was it the last? I think it was. Canberra house nearly won ! But there was miscommunication and one of the runners stopped running thinking that it has already ended. When he realised it has not, it was too late to catch up. But still we weren’t the last which showed that the runners were really fast. Oh well, forget it. We all know that they did well. 

Oh, I almost forgot the mass dance by the house excos. I think I see someone dancing .. LOL . Shall get the close up video from Jolene then blog it :X Heheh ~ P

Mass dance by all house excos

The entire event ended with prize giving. JiaWei won the indiviual best girl award. I mean, come on! She broke the record for shotput which was unbroken for tens of years. So she got 200 points immediately. Not to forget her javelin throwing. Indeed, the best sportswomen ! D Canberra got last as usual >< Admiralty won for the first time in years ? But this year there were really a lot of talented people in their house. So yeah We shall look foward to the interhouse games ! (: Something that Canberra is good at for the past few years, well at least last year. We won that but we placed last as usual for the track and field meet. Weird huh. I think we like playing better. LOL . 

Anyways, I had a lot of fun today ! And I should move to my homework already or I think I will NEVER finish it. Especially that HOMEWORK. zzz . Whatever. Signing off now . Have a good night (:
