Golden Jubilee, My Dear Vampy
Well, today was a very great day. We had the launching of the Golden Jubilee from about 7.00 to 4.00 then we had the Gala Dinner from about 7.00 to 11.00. Both events were great but the greater was the Gala Dinner. Truth be told, I am feeling emo right now after the Gala Dinner cause the realisation that we're all gonna part at the end of the yr has hit me ever more so than ever before. To think that this wonderful event would be one of the last, if not THE last, that we shall have together as a united school! Even prom doesn't include others besides form 5 alone. Therefore i shall surmise that the Gala Dinner IS the final combined event of the school. It literally pained me to leave the hall. And even more so saying goodbyes.
I know that though we may all be parted, our memories shall never die. Therefore I shall never forget this day of the 19th of April 2008 whereby the Golden Jubilee Gala Dinner was held. Due to my current feelings, I am incapable of thinking what to add to this post. Here are some pictures:
One of the earlier performances during the launching
Cikgu Amelly singing with Si Hui
Fadzlan and Amal
Nadz took this
And this :P
Eileen took this
The Form 5S1 coat-wearers :P
Form 5S1 height chart :P
The GJ logo
The orchestra
The Korean dance
Cikgu Wan! the Kenny G. of Brunei!
So, in desperation to let myself be heard, I have published this post to release a great part of me which I must share. Please enjoy this post and forgive me if there are any errors or anything missing. I'll add in other pics when I get them :D
Til then,
Λncientine

March 13th & 15th:
On the 13th, we had our trial cross country(GJ cross country :P). I tried it. and it was hell! hahaha. my stamina faltered and muscles proved to be inadequate :P
On the 15th, it was the actual GJ cross country. I didnt attempt it. tho I thot hollis did pretty well, we still came in last position. it was a blow to myself and it left me thoroughly disappointed. however, I was assured that hollis did better than previous yrs :)
March 20th to 30th:
HOLIDAYS!!! As always, I dreaded the holidays as I knew it would be as boring as other holidays. But I was proven wrong! family friends visited us and we brought them to places. we went to the Royal Regalia, etc...but the best part of the holidays, was that, our guests stayed at the Empire Hotel!!!!! i mean, lucky them but hey! we stayed there too during the day and sometimes til night :P
the cars of royalties were shining by...the food were eaten, stomachs satisfied...
hehe...the best day at the Empire was on the sunday. i guess it was sunday splash...saw some X-sas ppl. one was reeeeally pretty. wont mention her here. ashamed of myself for not being able to look at her longer! HAHAHAH. but not my fault cause evrytime I turned to look at her, she would be looking at me. timing!!! :'( haha...oh well. then on the same day, there was a carpet auction held in the Indera Kayangan hall. Princess Sarah was there wif her mum. she bought lotssa carpets. they were CHEAP!!! cheapskates these bruneians! lol
ummmm, earlier that day we went to eat at the Bunker's Cafe. was bored so i smsed wif Dee. but before we went to the Cafe, I saw josh in the main building...lol...another thing I regret is that I didnt get to swim at the Empire. I am in need of swimming mainly cause I'm entering the interhouse swimming competition. hahaha. its been 4 yrs since i swam...well all in all, I truly loved that day at the Empire and I would like to go there again soon. perhaps after O'levels I'll ask friends to go there. :)
April 2nd:
My Sixteenth Birthday! nthn much, nthn special...just another day. and I'm glad it was that way...the nxt day I told lee teen I didnt celebrate at all then she said I should've told them so they could've bought a cake and celebrated in school...awww, how nice of them. but seriously, knowing me, I'd never do that!
The presents I got: $100 from father, wallet from mother, $50 from paternal grandma, $30 from maternal grandparents, $20 from maternal aunt, somethings from sis I think, a card and $30 Best Eastern voucher from DEE(THNX A LOT! :D), a whole box of darn nice chocs from lena and a whole lot of wishes :P
April 3rd:
Learned a bit of dancing after school before pracs. it was really great! haha. I wont mention details here. all I can say is that I've started(more like REstarted) to work out cause the dances require strength and energy. haha. I'm startin to like it! well, nvr hated it nor disliked it in the first place...to help the dance, I was told to do just 30 pushups a day. there're 3 types so 10 of each. so I tried it that night and the nxt day, my arms hurt like hell! the worse thing is that it still hurts now!!! hahaha...but it was really good. ya noe when you can just sense the effort put in and its not for nthn. but for a whole lot of good things...so yeah :D and just a day after I started reworkin out, I decided the 30 pushups wont be enough to make me way stronger in just a week. so after doing the 30 pushups, I carried weights to strengthen my arms further but only for the triceps and for the lower arms so that I would be able to carry things and ppl easily ;D
April 5th:
the interhouse science quiz was held today in the conference hall. I need not say anythin other than the fact that I was disappointed yet again. I have to praise and thank Michelle and Vanessa and the others for they tried their best. it was just that, in the face of mortal peril, one cannot act but to shy in silence like a prey. I congratulate danson. but if it were not to be a matter of a small mistake, it would not have been danson I congratulated, but mcdougal.
Well, that's all I have to say. PLS PLS PLS just ask me if anyone has anythin to ask. I will answer honestly and as much as I can. and concerning pentathlon this yr, I will consider replacements or substitutions for my team, Vendetta. so dont worry all those who have asked if they could join.
Farewell,

And when all seems lost and I gave up hope, I turn to my Vendetta. As captain, we are never to be blamed nor accused if we fail. Unless we did an intentional error. But as time be witness, I am the Lord of Vendetta for all eternity. viva la vendetta!
