Dancing lessons rocks!^^

Hehe i attended 2 dance lessons last sunday with Cindy & Sam at Studio Wu in Eastpoint.
Pop Jazz & Hip hop
i think everyone knows what's hip hop lah hor, but pop jazz... erhmm didnt know much of a thing about it but we thought the lesson's at intro level not advanced, so it shouldnt kill right?? Lol

We went down to check out the courses last friday and the receptionist gave us complimentary free dance lesson passes, so we thought why not? Hehe fabulous decision! It rocks!^^
I think if i were to attend several lessons a week, by signing up for 'unlimited' package. ($90 for unlimited no of lessons in a month) i should be able to slim down (^o^V)
But then i cant afford to go there so many times a week, kinda laggy in terms of tutorials already... Oops!
Shall sign up in december~
Hehe

Pop Jazz involves some moves like 'pababoleh' Hmm i duno how to spell. A few steps that's quick, light & graceful... i can do the leg movements but not so easy to coordinate with hand movements.
Hip hop at intro level easy lah... just that the squat & stand or rather bounce back up quickly with the beat dance step give me cramps in the thighs. Guess i arent that strong yet.
I wanna try girls hip hop, J/K pop, video groove, street jazz, locking/popping (when i learnt more basics) next time!^^
anyone else interested?
Lolx

During GP lessons:

Tutor's question: Dalai Lama was the exiled leader of which place?
Darren: Tanah Merah
Class: Silence... Then laughter...

Wow! It rhymes! ^^
Really didnt think of that as i knew the answer (Tibet)

Tutor: Then Robin (who lives in tana mera -the condo in Tanah Merah) lives in the land ruled by Dalai Lama.
Robin showed this expressionless face, which means either he's too 'lamed' by the stupid joke to react or he wasnt even listening in the first place.
Anyway, it doesnt matter, i had a good laugh.

Extension on 1 April
During another GP lesson:
Tutor: This is not my cup of tea... so i take Darren's cup of tea, i'll enjoy it better.
Class: DEAD silence... *a crow flew by* ark ark ark
Tutor: Hey, it's a joke, laugh leh
Class: Hurhurhur heh heh heh
One doesnt have to be a director to tell that we are bad actors. Hurhur it's really so COLD.. It's not funny!

Extension on 20 April
GP tutor asked a question
'Who says yes?' 1 hand raised.
'Who says no?' A few hands shot up.
Tutor: What about the rest of you? Sitting on the fence? Isnt it painful??
Brr... Rapid drop in temperature from 20 degC to 10 degC.

School reopened for almost a week now..
Life's still the same... same o' me, leading the same o' life

Nothing exciting

Econs tutorials are slightly more interesting as u know, with all those jokers around, there's no peace..

Tutor writing on a movable whiteboard which shakes..
Tutor: This is irritating.
Student B: Why dun want to use the whiteboard behind? (whiteboard fixed on the wall)
Tutor: I thought that movable one is nearer to u all, but it kept shaking, so irritating!
Student B: Anything that shakes is irritating? Then we shake la!
Tutor: U dun have to shake, u're already very irritating. You are born irritating.

Woah.. Sad sia!!! Been described as 'BORN IRRITATING'
LOLx

Tutor named some European countries & asked us which of those have the problem of high unemployment.
Students named Germany, France...
Student B: Hungary?
Tutor: I'm not too sure about Hungary.
Student B: Not Hungary arh? But they are always hungry leh.
Student D (smiles) : I saw that (hungary=hungry) coming.

Tutor talked about workers' strikes
Tutor: ...They throw stones at the rocks...
HUH?!!
What? Haha
A split sec later, everyone's laughing
Tutor: It's throw rocks at the policemen. But it's funny what, 'throw stones at the rocks' smiling at his own bludder. And he ACTED that out (throwing action)
Student C: Cher u think u cute?

That's all for today
Kinda used to these types of disruptions now.

I was supposed to study for cha guan but i did this instead...
Playing with the shadow of my bookmark
茶馆 is so sian
If not for the upcoming test, I wont have touched it.



Here's a better pic of the 主角 -my bookmark!^^
It's actually the label of my new camera's bag. brandname: Caseman. So i guess that explains the shape of the label.
I find what's written at the back of the label interesting...
'Caseman's bags are made to beat the elements, constructed from high performance, water resistant fabrics & all tied up with seatbelt strength straps & buckles. Caseman is made tougher than you are.'
Wow! haha i didnt know i'm like more fragile than a camera bag! Lolx

CLASS BBQ cum Yi-an's farewell at Robin's house yesterday

Gotta miss Yi-an who's heading back to Taiwan to continue her studies.

If she can pass an entry test, she can enrol into a Taiwan university! Wows! That sounds 101% better than slogging our guts out for A Levels. Lol

Whatever it is... Wanna wish her ALL THE BEST IN HER FUTURE ENDEAVOURS.



CG 24/06!!!!



Unfortunately, due to the rain, the BBQ was delayed, cant start the fire as there wasnt proper shelters at the BBQ pit. Umbrellas, metal covers (resembles those used to lock ice cream freezer outside shops) were used.

After cutting the cake, our dear GP tutor Mr Tan got flung into the water. I took a video of it haha... Using my digicam which is just a few days old, i figured out how to use the movie function & used it immediately. (v^o^V) I'm a genius! Hehe.. But im too lazy to upload the video here. ^^

I think he knew of the guys' evil plans beforehand & hogged the cake and refused to put it down in front of Yi-an.. LOL. Once he putted down the cake, a couple of guys swarmed over, carried him, flung him into the water.

So now u know who are those who will get 0 marks for their latest comprehension. LOL
Evidence aplenty here.




This class gathering should be the most successful one to date, a total of 19 out of 24 people turned up! Marvellous! Much better than the turnout we had for the previous BBQ.
2406 people! Rock on!

More Free poolside entertainment during class BBQ

Poor Xin an got thrown into the swimming pool by Di hui (the one in black)...
he tried to escape... (see the one in white, desperately clinging on to his dear life)

And then he tried...

Again...
This time Robin got into the pool..
2 versus 1.. Things arent looking good..


And again...
Can see how desperate Xin an was... heheh

But nobody helped him, eunice and i were busy taking photos to care... oops! We siam-ed only when they started splashing water all over the place.
Wondered why they were so high... Darren jumped in later too! haha u can imagine the havoc and noise level at the pool.
Residents complained... Muahahah

WHY DO TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS OCCUR?

I was in my dad's car when i saw the young driver of the car in front of my dad's car doing a highly dangerous act.
Hmm..
Okay.. He arent doing aerial aerobatics or gymnastics.
He was busy STYLING his hair using the backview mirror WITH BOTH HANDS for more than a couple of seconds! While his car is still moving forward. Wth. And he did that at least twice while my dad was driving behind him. Of course, my dad changed lanes shortly after, which goondu wouldnt if given the chance?

This reminds me of an incident that took place some years ago.
My family took a taxi to the airport. This hyperactive taxi driver was telling some stories... He got so engrossed that both of his hands left the steering wheel to make frantic gestures to prove his point. All these while the cab's still moving at full speed. HELLO?! I was not interested in whatever stories he wanted to tell. I was more concerned about safety. My oh my i feared for our lives.

TO ALL considerate drivers who have no wish to die early or kill someone else:
Keep your hands properly on the steering wheel for goodness sake & concentrate on driving.

This is what i made... a cup of vegetarian chicken soup ------ the instant cup noodles way. ^o^v





Was supposed to add hot water, stir and put the lid back on for 4 mins.

It totally slipped out my mind as i was happily eating instant noodles (cooked by my mom haha not me... i dun cook instant noodles, i cook instant cup noodles)

Until my mom reminded me about the soup.

So instead of 4 mins, it became 40 mins of 'cooking' haha

By then, there wasnt any aroma...

Those floating articles are vegetarian foodstuff. Yeah it's vegetarian chicken i guess. WEIRD. If they want to give me vegetarian food, give me real veggies. If they want to give me chicken, then give me the real chicken. That was a complimentary cup from a goodie bag, if not i dont think i'll ever buy it.

I didnt finish the soup, because i didnt stir well enough when i added the hot water. The outcome: a chunk of half dissolved powder with some of the soup's ingredients stuck in there. Argh! What a horrid salty mix!

In the middle of lesson
Student C: 'Cher, how many classes do u teach?
Tutor: Other tutors teach 5, i teach 6.
Student C: Then do u get more pay?
Tutor: Same pay, what u think? Teaching is not a free market.
Student F: Why dont u demand more pay?
Student C: Threaten them, if dont raise pay, dont work la
Tutor: They'll say dont want to work then dont work la. U can also do that, dont want to study then dont study.
Student C: Then can i leave now?
Tutor: ( i forgot his reply... it's something like can go, but at your own risk)
Student C (changed his mind): I like your lesson.
Tutor: Then why are u always disrupting the lesson?
Student F: That's why he like.

Student C ask about the words on the board, too cursive cant read
Tutor: It's my handwriting. (proceeded to rewrite it properly)
Student C: Then improve your handwriting
Tutor: 请多多指教
Only non chinese student: What's that?
* A furry of translations & explanations that dun sound right* what 'more more' 'many..' 'help'
Tutor: Seek guidance along the way or something like that.


Tutor giving out holiday assignment
Tutor: Hand in during the first lesson after the holidays.
Student B: Hah?? Holiday is for me to play mahjong.
Student E: 'Cher 2nd lesson lah?
Tutor: No... First lesson will become 2nd lesson, 2nd lesson will become 3rd lesson...
Student C: (cutting in) Then just make it the 3rd lesson lah.
Tutor: No! 1st lesson.
Student B: said something about spore govt... (i didnt catch)... 'holiday' and 'homework' these 2 words dont match leh.. So dont give lah
Tutor: Every class across the level will have to do this. I still have to mark u know...
Student D: 'Cher, i help u clean the board, u give me kindness points, then i dun need to hand in so early.
Tutor: U wish..

Tutor drawing graph showing an abrupt drop in year 1989.
Student B: 'Cher how old were u in 1989?
Tutor: U dont have to know.

After sometime~~

Student B: 'Cher how old are u this year?
Tutor: This is not important.
Student C: 'Cher we care for u leh.

Super duper blurblur tutor missed our makeup tutorial on wednesday which he arranged the week before, wasted my time sia..

So those who went questioned him about his absence during thursday's tutorial

Student B: Our classmate's friend sms her to tell her 'how can u have makeup lesson when your tutor is sitting in our lecture theatre?'
Tutor apologised for the miscommunication between 2 lecturers, in the end he had to rush to give a revision lecture as both lecturers thought their turn was next week and sat in the lecture theatre looking at each other. Then they wondered how come nobody's lecturing today?! Wah liao eh..
So he didnt have enough time to inform us.

Student C: To make up for that, can cancel this tutorial?

I dont know how he got to this topic... wasnt listening...
Tutor: You all are like babies, when u all go to uni, it's totally different, have to be responsible for ur own academic performance & attendance.
Student F: If absent, can give Parent's Letter?
* i suppressed my laughter*
Tutor: Cannot.
Student F: Then MC?
Tutor: No use, have to have at least 80% attendance rate to take the exam.
Student F: Hah??? *looking genuinely surprised*
* i was genuinely surprised by his apparent ignorance *
Student B: What if on wheelchair?
Forgot tutor's reply
Student B: Then mentally disabled? Cannot... blahblah (i forgot liao la)

Tutor started ACTING with super funny sounding 'erh erh' and facial expressions
I have no idea why..
CRANKY class have cranky tutor haha

Tutor: You all, ask u take out something, will 'erh erh erh' then grudgingly take out. Ask u all take out foolscap, will erh erh erh again before taking them out slowly. Everything also erh erh erh...
Student C: 'Cher, u think u cute arh??

Tutor finally stopped acting upon hearing that. This is one of the rare occasions that i will agree with Student C.. haha i still dunno his name btw, shall continue calling him Student C.

Almost 10 min before the lesson officially ends
The guys started packing up

Tutor: Hey! Wait wait! I havent finished the lesson.
Students: Dont want la, we want to have lunch.

Many stood up, on the verge of leaving...
Tutor: Go back to your seats, i want to go through worksheet 3 & 4.
Students: 'Cher but u said that one's not important, can throw away one (hmm yeah he really said that before)
Student C: Food is more important.
Tutor (gave in): All right u all may go..

Well so slack...

This is something that i spotted... scribbled on a desktop of a classroom
As it was done in pencil, it's quite faded so i dun think a photo of it will turn out well..
So i just quoted the creative fella

R.I.P

(2 flowers adorning the sides of rest in peace)

In loving memory of those innocent children who died waiting

4 this tutorial 2 end

Heheh
What a creative way of saying the lesson is boring him/her to death..

Other vandalism on desks by bored people includes creating a 'chatboard'.. someone starts by saying HI! and introducing, then others follow suit
So the desk is littered with '17/f/sg' '17/m/tj' kinda thing plus some surprise msgs like 'wow! people do reply to me!'
Then some idiot added '50+/m/DM' hobby: soccer... =.O not funny~
Of course, there's always some other goondu who wrote 'please do not vandalise' when he/she is obviously doing so.

Biscuit sticks imported from Korea... With my favourite DBSK member Jaejoong's picture on them!!!
Totally rocks!^^

Gotta thank Doris for the tip-off, she knew i was looking for them sometime ago & told me where she had seen it. She has a good memory hehe as i think i showed her the picture of one of the boxes awhile ago.
Thanks Cindy for accompanying me to buy them, there were 5 trays of biscuits there & we searched through the trays to find the precious few boxes with Jaejoong's face on it. There's only about 3 boxes of the red ones & 1 box (i think i bought the last one there) of the white one. Other people may cast funny looks on us, but i reckon we were too busy to notice. ^o^v
Yipee! I'm so happy^^
Shall admire the biscuits for sometime before eating!
