So today was finally Mrs Chan's farewell assembly.
There were some performances by our award winning choir and band and a dance.
The icom video was good too. Esp her hairstyles and the teacher's imitations of her "Aiyah" and "please lah!".
Talking about teachers, they did a fanstastic job of coming up with an original song for Mrs Chan. Sending her west...
Go west out of VJC (I thought this was the saddest line)
Go west go to MOE
Go west go and be DD
Go west be CPDD
something about going so far, but she has no car...mentioned all the awards...
yaddayadda...can't remember...will post them when they're up on cosiety (hopefully they will be)
The tune was something like "Give Thanks", with an augmentation of the 2nd note. VJ does have quite alot of christian influence...come to think of it, many groups thank God at assembly when they win something...
haiz...she didn't have to make use of her survival kit (tissues)...
but I guess its just as well that it ended on a happy note.
Of course, with her declaring "It is my honour and pleasure to give you your final full day off."
I guess that last declaration is what will immediately pop up when we think of Mrs Chan in future...
Gave our our cranes...she said she was quite impressed that we could fold them so small... :D
Ah well...at least its not her last day...she'll still be around till the end of the year...
and our PW group will have to reinterview her for our OP...haha
Hopefully as CPDD (ciricculum planning deputy director [science]) she'll be able to head some movement that'll end up in
SPA being scrapped! No doubt she'll be as dynamic and will own the whole dept there too. ;)
hmmm, did a simple search for "Mrs Chan" on blogger...turned up a huge number of results. Of course with everyone saying how wonderful she is, how much she'll be missed...yadda yadda...but some also said that she was a slack principal. I don't think so...think she probably appeard slack cause she gave us alot of freedom, but if u look closely you'll see that she's really damn hardworking.
Oh, and I read that there are also several other teachers leaving. No prizes for guessing where they’re leaving for.Yea, they’re all going west…gah…proves my point! MOE loves to deprive students of wonderful teachers and principals!
after hanging around like lost sheep for a bit (due to the unexpected full day off) 06S33 went to suntec to watch the prestige.
-lunch at pizza hut first.
The Prestige is such a FANTASTIC movie!
Totally the best!
Thought provoking
Intellectual
Keeps your mind on its feet every single second
A totally MUST SEE!
never talked about a movie sooo much before. we stayed in the theatre discussing it for like 20 minutes...
ha, thanks mrs chan for the full day off so we could catch this fabulous movie :D
was cool simply hanging with the class like that.
Must have class chalet! BBQ at least...
But after that I went bishan for german.
Andreas and I then decided that it was super sian...so decided to pon german for the first time in our lives :D
After gong, I was being quite bored...so guess what I did...
haha...I was flipping through the telephone book...
found some teacher's addresses...including mrs chan's...haha
After that, now here I am...
hopefully next week will be productive...
today was the last official day of school...next week onwards will be OP prep + MFA attachment + catching up on J1 work...
gah...I'd better my all my As next year man...(hmm...does tt mean no time to keep the vj spirit alive?)
you know you love me
