shall start of by blogging about one acs day celebrations.. hahax..
it was a bright and sunny day.. every other student seems decked out in
red, ready to celebrate national day.. by singing national songs, watching performances related to national day.. in a certain corner in queenstown, all 6 acs schools had gathered to "celebrate" national day as one acs.. from junior, primary to jc.. all were decked out in
house t-shirts.. the day started with plenty of cramming and disorder as 6 schools gathered at the stadium.. buzz of "excitement" was very loud.. poor people had to seat on wet benches.. anyway, it started with a parade with the parade commander loud enough to wake those in the front row.. the rest at the back? i shall no go on.. throughout the entire parade and the march past, certain schools had the luxury of looking at the backs and not knowing what was going on.. might as well, not many were interested anyway.. after the parade, national anthem, pledge, national day speech and recollections
(the only parts remotely related to national day), the games began.. wow whee, what fun.. all of us were stuck in the hot sun, watching people play games on the field when some of them we could hardly see.. how interesting.. some escaped, but the majority were stuck with stoning.. oh well.. what a way to start the day.. being national day celebrations, you'd expect more.. where were the patriotic songs? there wasn't much engagement with the audience either.. was an utter failure.. so while the participants were engrossed in trying to flatten each other, the audience had to be content with entertaining themselves.. even the teachers were bored.. what's new? lolx.. another
interesting dimension was the introduction of acs cheers, the acs waves and a great deal about acs.. and yes.. obedience does appear to die out with old age.. only the junior and primary kids looked remotely interested.. well, maybe cause it's not engaging the rest? lolx.. hmm.. looks kinda like sports day doesn't it? national day celebrations? nah.. kinda gives the impression that the school is more concerned about itself.. lolx.. finally at ~1030 they came up with this prize giving celebrations that no one paid attention and finally the dismissal.. oh ya, and did i mentioned there was no attendance taking? remind me not to turn up for such a thing again..
i'll only consider going for national day celebrations..
after that went with jx n xj to je.. since my class had totally no idea what to do nor seemed remotely interested in going anywhere together.. had kfc at je talked a bit, cs came, talked more.. went to watch Simpson's.. xj 扫兴, dun wan go.. Simpson's was nice.. to some it may just be an entertaining show to laugh about.. but as other Simpson's show, there's an underlying message.. or at least that's what i think.. lolx.. even the jokes.. some have meaning to it, some you need to think.. some you just laugh.. nice plot.. simple but nice..good entertainment.. final rating: 3.5/5..
on to the national anthem.. how often have you heard the phrase "you're not singing the anthem loud enough?" a principal of one the schools i studied/am studying in even went as far as to comment: " if you don't sing the national anthem loudly, you don't deserve to hold onto your pink ic." or something along that line.. does the volume of your singing the national anthem really represent your patriotism to the nation? i don't think things can be measured this way.. such things can only be measured with actions, not words..
words are cheap.. just like asking do you love me? it isnt how many times you say it or how loudly you say it.. it's the things you do.. that can never be measured.. that's what counts.. talk is dirt cheap.. lolx.. so stand up and be counted when the nation needs you.. not sing the anthem loudly and hide like a coward when the nation needs you.. oh yes, by the way, i think the speech impaired are patriotic people too.. lolx..
Happy national day.. hahax..
many things to blog about.. but cant really remember what.. oh well, some other day perhaps.. lolx.. when i remember.. lolx..
