Student Leadership Project Report, haha

2009-03-15T12:48:00.002+08:00

Well, someone wants this report, so I guess I shall just share it here:

Essentially, our class presentation focused on two main areas of servant leadership: listening without judgement and bonding within a community. The main vector of these two sub-groups of servant leadership is PN, our class' Assistant Civics Representative. As the class representative, he is the model of excellent conduct and scholastic virtue. We thus decided to centre our video presentation on him converying the method and the impact of displaying servant leadership. We got the idea for our video presentation from a seemingly ordinary class activity we often engage in - planning up an upcoming celebratory event. We decided that such common, yet insightful occasions were ideal situations whihc truly displayed the core values of servant leadership converyed effectivlely by our class leader.

The first scene was an introduction to the value of listening without judgement. In the video, PN led the class in a lively discussion over the logistical details and food preparations for a much-anticipated birthday party planned for classmates born in the month of February. The second scene showed the actualy February birthday party, held in the school canteen, which displayed the second trait: bonding within a community. These two spontaneous events sublimely conveyed the two intended values of servant leadership that our class chose to focus on. This proves that even typical everyday events are actually occasions where the values of servant leadership are not only employed, convery and observed, but also leave a positive impact on others.

The area of student leadership development that we wish to present in PN's skills of working with others. Throughout the planning stage, he was willing to listen to the opinions of others, as well as to impart his own opinion, without trying to coerce or influence others to agree with him. While persuasion is an important leadership skill, here PN was willing to sacrifice his own preference for the greater whole and and work with others to come to a decision that satisfies the calss. He was also able to organize and distribute labour effectively, such that each individual unit could contribute toward a collective goal, cooperating as a class to arrange a birthday celebration. All these demonstrate PN's exemplary skills of working with others, as he is able to connect and communicate with people on a personal level, being sensitive to their needs and wants, while still coming to a firm decision in the end.

This presentation has inspired our class in innumberable ways. We put in a tremendous amount of hard work, and together with team effort and impressive leadership, we managed to put our project together within the stipulated time frame. The entire process proved to be a unique learning journey of its own, and working with the servant leader of our choice has further introduced us to the essence of strong leadership. We are now utterly convinced of the merits of effective leadership as epitomised by PN. We are now acutely aware that the pertinent skills of "listening without judgement" and "bonding within a community" are entirely sine qua non in effective leadership. Amidst this dreary economic recession during which the meaninglessness of life is growing tragically familiar, we see the growing importance of effective leadership, of leaders proving themselves in the face of adversity to life the people out of a depressing cycle. Finally the experience was truly enriching and inspiring one that we feel glad to be able to partake in. It is a shared sentiment that it is crucial and imperative that good leaders like PN be honored and for us to pave the way for them on their delicate path to unimaginable greatness.

Erm, ya. Oh well.

Complimentary Cable Car Ride awaits YOUth!

2009-03-10T17:51:00.001+08:00

PAYM Policy Forum @ East Coast GRC & Joo Chiat SMC on Sunday, 22 MARCH 2009, from 1.00pm - 5.00pm at Mount Faber, Diamond Palace @ The Jewel Box

From the ‘Keep Singapore Clean’ campaigns in the 1960s to the recent ‘Romancing Singapore’ campaigns, campaigns have almost become synonymous with the Singaporean way of life; this begs the inevitable question “Is Singapore a country of campaigns?”

Join us for an engaging dialogue in assessing the success of these campaigns and explore ways in which campaigns can be better communicated to the youths!

Free tickets to the cable car will be provided. Anyone interested just tell me. :)

2008-10-20T19:19:00.003+08:00

heyy peeps,

DJOHNLEE here.

"Hi, This is Gracia Chua here. Enterprise Sports Group is recruiting ppl to help out in the STANDARD CHARTERED MARATHON 2008. We have several events in conjunction with the actual marathon such as the packing of the race packs and the race expo which is to give out the race packs. We need help urgently as the event is coming up and lots of planning needs to be done. Most importantly, the whole event cannot happen or be successful without ur help. The following are the details of the events prior to the STANDARD CHARTERED MARATHON.

Event: Packing Day
Date: 28 nov to 1 dec
Day: Friday to Monday
Pax needed: 20 ppl needed
Pay: $30 per day
Time and venue to be confirmed

Event: Race Expo
Date: 4 to 6 Dec
Day and time: Thursday to Friday time is 10am to 10 pm
Saturday time is 8 am to 8pm but may drag since it is a weekend
Pax needed: 26 ppl needed
Pay : $30 per day
Time and venue to be confirmed

Event: Race Day
Date: 7th Dec
Day: Sunday
800 ppl needed (this is why i think our class can make it hahaa, 800 confirm got enough slots)
Pay: $20
Time and venue to be confirmed

Ok. I know that u guys are thinking that the allowance is very little and it is not worth doing for such long hours but I want to let u know that ADIDAS shirts and merchandises will be given out to all helpers and also this is a one-time experience as every event is different. Also students will be entitled to CIP hours. I sincerely hope u guys can help out and also spread the message and bring your friends along as we really need a lot of manpower ok.

Another thing is that, if u realize, the days for expo and race day is back to back and u guys may want to do both events. So suggestions for people living in the west is that u guys dun go home as there will not be enough time so just hang out with your friend maybe catch a movie or something den u can proceed to the venue for the race as it will be quite early in the morning.

As to whether there will be enough vacancies, DON’T WORRY as we always need more people so call classmates, your neighbors, your relatives, your CCA friends whoever. If you can bring your whole school, that’s the best. If your have friends who have just finished their o level’s that would be most ideal as some of the days are weekdays and they will be able to go. The more the merrier alright. So go ahead and forward this mail to all your friends out there.

Now. I would need to know if you are interested. So I will need your name, ic number, contact number, email address, t-shirt size and the event that you are interested in doing. I have attached and excel spreadsheet together with this mail so what you can do is to include your friends and your particulars in the spreadsheet and just forward it back to me.

Thank you very much for your time and I do hope to hear from u soon, preferably tonight or tomorrow. So as long as u are interested, just drop me a mail. As for any doubts or enquiries, do feel free to contact me at 90236026 and I will be more that glad to provide u with answers to your questions. That should be all for now and I will email you again for more updates. =)

Just found a very interesting personal analyser online.

You just have to key in your name and they will analyse different aspects of yourself.

Quite funny, and to some extent quite true. I had a good laugh when they tried to analyse my weight from my name. Haha.

Well now I used Paul's name to see what his previous life is like. Haha

Too bad it's in Chinese, but you can fill in your name in English, perhaps a different answer?

National Day Celebrations!

GREETINGS EARTHLINGS!

This is in response to kk's(whoever that may be) tag that our wonderful blog has no peektures.
Tday is National Day celebrations and ALSO another monumental DATE (pun intended).

The following is intended for comic relief, as the stressful promos are descending upon us, hence no offence to the victims.
3 pictures speak 3thousand words, please do enjoy!

AIYO BIMBO WHY SO SHY NOW(she's blushing)!! you can see caleb happily cheering that he is in such a circumstance.

Very hard to take picture of BOTH of them. either one would mysteriously look away. But ixy, do you REALLY HAVE to smile so BLISSFULLY? :P

FINALLY, BOTH of them gave in to their intense, passionate, inner desires and lived happily ever after!

WELL, I somehow get the feeling that I would be the one NOT living happily ever after, because MDM TAY JING XI will NEVER EVER let me off. :X

I still have 3 peaceful days before I face her wrath then. Till then folks of 08S16, hope that we still can be friends in my next life!

Oh, and well done to those who acted today liumin, xinyi and HAHAHA Puo Nen, nice gangster!

PS: look at Leena's face! girl, what are you doing man!

National Day Performance

2008-07-17T20:44:00.003+08:00

Basically Lignum has to put this 5min long performance on 8August ( I hope it is a half day) and after a lengthy discussion today, we came up with the script. AND we'll need 8 people from each class. Actually I'm not too sure whether is it 5 or 8. but it's around there. These people have to act. Watch the below video and keep in mind that our performance is something like that... so if you're shy, you can be one of the people wearing all black and assisting with the tricks as well.

No CIP hours awarded for doing this, sorry people. But it will be a fun experience. The performance, if executed properly, will be super funny. Trust me. Oh yea, a really brief summary of the plot, Mas Selamat escapes from prison, people watching news report get together and work to help catch him, someone spots him, they catch him, end off with a birthday wish to Singapore.

Hm, since I think few of you will volunteer yourselves, I will probably volunteer random people tomorrow. Watch the video okay, it's super spastic and funny.

and if any of you feel stressed up or depressed over studies/promos/cca/whatever, don't forget that you have all your classmates here for you (:

Here's just another cool video I saw, it has nothing to do with the performance though.

Chem Quizzes!!

2008-07-12T17:13:00.003+08:00

Ok guys, there will be Chem quizzes every week!!! OMG...

Next week (week 4) there will be lecture test on Bonding, Kinetics, Energetics and Equilibrium
Week 5 got class test Hess Law calculations
Week 6 got class test on Bonding, Energetics and Kinetics
Week 7 got class test on Organic Chem
Week 8 got class test on Ionic Equilibrium
Then September holidays got "take home quizzes" (for revision i guess)

There will also be consolidation lectures every week at 3.40 on Thursday
each lecture will teach the topic that was taught the previous week
(eg. Week 8 they will revise about organic chem)
the lectures will carry on till week 2 of Term 4.

good luck, everyone!

propaganda reminder: please rmb to hang ur flags outside ur house. Our National Day is coming!!

一个十岁的小学生发现五年级的数学实在是他这一生中最难的功课。
无论家教、同学、CD教学片、教科书，但都没用。
最后父母决定把孩子转进私立小学，不是普通的私立小学，而是一所天主教学校。

开学的第一天来临了，小家伙开始向着伟大的陌生世界冒险。
那天放学回来，他走过父母亲面前，径自回房把门关起来。
辛苦工作了两个小时，出来吃个饭就又直接回到楼上，认真的做功课直到就寝。
这样的模式一天继续一天，直到第一次发成绩单。

那天，这孩子走进家门，把信封丢在餐桌上，就径自回房做功课。
他父母亲打开成绩单，让他们惊奇的是数学成绩居然是A。
他们欣喜万分地冲上儿子的房间，为他的进步激动不已。

「是那些修女吗？」爸爸问。
「不是。」儿子回答。
「是课前的祷告吗？」妈妈问。
「不是。」
「是教科书、老师、还是课程安排？」爸爸问。
「不，不是。」
「喔！那么，是什么原因呢？」妈妈问。

「是这样的，进学校的第一天，我看见一个人被钉在加号上面，我知道...他们是玩真的。」

sorry for those who couldn't understand this...

“May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields.
And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.” - Irish Blessings

“Nothing makes the earth seem so spacious as to have friends at a distance; they make the latitudes and longitudes.” - Henry David Thoreau

“You and I will meet again, When we're least expecting it, One day in some far off place, I will recognize your face, I won't say goodbye my friend, For you and I will meet again” - Tom Petty

Don't you fear, when you dream
Waking up is never what it seems
Like a jewel, buried deep
Like a promise meant to keep
You are everything you want to be

Say goodnight, not goodbye

So goodnight, Haocheng.

Say Goodnight not Goodbye, the video I found the song from.

aye overall attendence wasnt really good. ppl who came: xinyi, haocheng, daniel, runchao, liumin, lichen, xiaoye and kelly. (paul joined us at 10:30pm)

oki we met at bedok mrt at about 2:15, then s10 ppl were there too. and they kept looking at us =x. their attendence was much better than us..3 girls and alot of guys. aye.

took bus at bedok to east coast park, then we walked over to ecp burger king there. ate lunch, then went to rent bikes and blades. liumin and daniel bikes, xinyi and haocheng blades. xiaoye kelly lichen runchao din want to blade/cycle so they went to the beach to "pick seashell".

then i shall talk about the biking trip. we rode/skated till CHANGI AIRPORT RUNWAY. =D damn tiring la. total distance travelled: 26KM
LOL. pro right. for the bladers, our legs were aching, for the bikers, their butts were aching. heh.

went back to the bike shop at about 6:45. overshot the time limit by about 45mins. the bikers had to pay extra $14. bladers for some reason dunnid. xD

anyway anyway we met runchao at burger king(xiaoye kelly lichen left early le).

we(runchao liumin daniel haocheng xinyi) went to raffles city to eat dinner. but at raffles city we decided that the food there was too ex and not nice, so we went to marina square foodcourt to eat.

then we went to find 7-eleven to buy alcohol. yay. so we bought this 2 bottles to share.

walked to esplanade outside, near singapore river to drink. hahas. not bad la sat there and chatted awhile. then paul came. FINALLY. then we sat there awhile more then all went home.

mm..guys, its not a class outing without the class. do try to make it for every one of our outings. afterall, we are a class, we gotta make our class work. i know we are a odd-combi class, that we dont see eachother that often, but that only means that we gotta try harder to stay bonded, to stay together, not it our little cliques but as a class. =)

see y'all soon. =P

lotsa love,
xinyi aka bird.

Class Outing

2008-05-30T19:13:00.002+08:00

Okay, if we want to go bowling, can go east coast. then we can cycle if we get tired of bowling. Another choice will be Sentosa. Don't think there's bowling alleys there, but there's the beach and we can play ball. And there are other stuff we can do like visit Insect Kingdom, Underwater World, Luge Ride, Vivo City, I dunno... expensive though... Or we can just go town and ... ... walk around? That's not very good lah I think, will be quite boring for some.

Bowling Alleys
Sentosa

So my current suggestions are:
1)Sentosa
2)East Coast
3)Town

Tell me what you want, or make your own suggestions. I vote Sentosa!

Say it Again

2008-05-30T13:01:00.001+08:00

The thing about love
Is I never saw it coming
It kinda crept up and
took me by surprise
And now there`s a voice inside my heart
that`s got me wondering
Is this true
I want to hear it one more time

Move in a little closer
Take it to a whisper
Just a little louder

Say it again for me
Cuz I love the way it feels
when you are telling me that I`m
The only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It`s like
the whole world stops to listen
When you tell me you`re in love
Say it again

Thing about you
is you know just how to get me
You talk about us
like there`s no end in sight
The thing about me
is that I really want to let you
Open that door and walk into my life

Move in a little closer
Take it to a whisper
Just a little louder

Say it again for me
Cuz I love the way it feels
when you are telling me that I`m
The only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It`s like
the whole world stops to listen
When you tell me you`re in love
Say it again

And it feels like it`s the first time
That anybody's ever brought the sun without the rain
And never in my whole life
Have I heard words as beautiful as
when you say my name

Say it again for me
Cuz I love the way it feels
when you are telling me that I`m
The only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It`s like
the whole world stops to listen
When you tell me you`re in love
Say it again

When you tell me you`re in love
Say it again

Record-breaking cum Rice Donation

This is something I would like everyone to come and help out, cos its gonna be a record-breaker!!!

Changi Simei Constituency would be having a 24-hour skipping challenge in support of Southeast CDC’s skipping challenge! It is definitely an exciting and meaningful activity to raise 20,000 kg of rice for the needy!

Details of the event as follows:

Date and Time: 28 June 10 am to 29 Jun 10 am
Venue: Changi Simei CC Hall

Our committee (which is me) would need 20 volunteers (outside of YEC) to man the shift: 1700 hrs to 1900 hrs on 28 Jun 08 (Sat).

The main duties of the volunteers would be logistics: registration, monitoring of rounds, etc. All volunteers, regardless of age are welcome !

Appreciate all of you can spread the message around and get your friends to be part of this exciting and meaningful challenge !

Registration form of the volunteer is obtainable from me. You can contact me should you require more information. CIP hours mah... Not sure leh. This kind of thing you want CIP hours meh? Anyway I will go find out first lah.

NEW piano syllabus

2008-05-29T22:18:00.000+08:00

Hmm, irrelevant maybe, but just feel like sharing this. Sadly, this only applies to 2009.

For scales, basically, the lower grade scales have been simplified while the upper grade scales have more stuff. whole tone scales have been added to grade 8. Sight-reading, wahaha! they have simplified the stuff and added evocative titles for the pieces and also fingerings. I have a sample of the sight-reading pieces, so tell me if you're interested.

Repertoire will contain not only movements in strict sonata form, but also classical movements in other forms. I guess that means more modern/incoherent music? Oh, it says here that new arrangements such as Jazzy Top Cat and Saint-Saen's The Elephant... so stuff originally written for other instruments but now arranged for piano can be played? Interesting.

Ole, new prep tests for flute, clarinet and cello... new theory books... new syllabuses for guitar and singing.

Singapore was featured on the ABRSM mag. Su-San:" Although Singapore is a small island, Associated Board exams are very popular; it is not unusual to have 10,000 candidates taking a theory exam in one day. As fo practical exams, almost 25,000 candidates are examined over a period of three months. We also organize High Scorers' Concerts and Professional Development Programmes. Singapore was the first country after the UK to offer the CT ABRSM course." Oh well, thank our kiasu parents for that.

Blablabla... the Singapore's Professional Development Programme will be on 29Aug, some event to prep you about how to prepare for next year's practical exams.

Links and Pictures

2008-05-27T15:11:00.003+08:00

Hey all.

Added a new Links section and hopefully the first word that comes to mind when you see all the links won't be "mugger". The first time I visited those websites was just now, when i searched for them. Thought they will be useful when we're doing our er... gp? and if there are any helpful science/lit/math websites out there, we can expand our list too (:

Okay, I just realised how [insert alternative word for mugger] I'm making our blog sound. So I shall add links to some video sites after publishing this post.

But seriously, the Time website looked cool. Wanted to kop the script for their news flash and put it on our blog, but I think we may get sued for it so forget it. Hm, go visit that site and read up when you have time.

okay I have some pictures here courtesy of Daniel. 3 pictures (:

Our Class (:

My Official First Post

2008-05-24T15:42:00.001+08:00

The OFP; I shall try to type a long post since it is sad to see an empty blog. Put up a poll, VOTE (: and you people have to know, that blogs left in my care usually ends up rotting. and that's exactly the reason why I invited everyone (including Mr Lin) to be authors/contributors of this blog. Do post whenever you can.

The theoretical uses of this blog are as follows:

1) updates about CIP, outings, admin stuff
2) reminders about admin stuff, birthdays, tests, exams, upcoming events, etc
3) place for us to display our class photos (or lack of)
4) advertisments for concerts, events or rallying of supporters for sports competitions

I shall add more if I remember.

I was playing around with the new blogger functions, and added AdSense to our blog. Google will display ads on our blog (I placed it at the bottom) and revenue is generated per valid click. I have no idea how they count the revenue, but if we do make revenue, that will be a nice contribution to our class fund.

A part of the Terms and Conditons:

I agree that I will not click on the Google adds I'm serving through AdSense.
I will not place ads on sites that include incentives to click on ads.
I agree that I can receive checks made out to the payee name I have listed above.
I will not place ads on sites involved in the distribution of copyrighted materials.
I will not place ads on sites that include pornographic content.
I certify that I have read the AdSense Program Policies.
I do not already have an approved AdSense account.

And, I've added quite a few blog elements or whatever you call those on the right column. I'll add links to your blogs if you people tag with your blog address yea. And I am itching to add a slideshow to our blog so people! start mailing your photos (class related of course) to the class email! If I'm not wrong... we have to take CIP pictures too, and we can start soon.

Next CIP is on 4June. Don't forget to come to school on Monday for Chem lecture (for some people, chem makeup lessons too), GP COMPULSORY consolidation on 28/29June, Chem SPA.

Oh man, they still call this a holiday. I'll probably figure out how to add music to this blog... later.

Happy Holidays... and see you people in school AND AT OUTING!
