This time next year, those of you have soldiered on will
look back and be amazed at what you've achieved.


- Mr Raymond Andrew.



Indeed, indeed. I'm not going to add on to what Ashley and Xiuxiu had just said because they've practically spoken everything in my mind. But one thing for sure, I love you guys (:

Now, and I mean right now, at this very moment, when I'm struggling amidst the piles of papers and books, and in my very classic pineapple head hairstyle(with my hair all tied to the top so it doesnt irritate me), I miss you guys! (: Let's study hard for one another, just like how we played for one another on the pitch against the other schools.

Academic is rather similar to Touch I guess.

Since we can't study for ourselves, we study for one another.
We'll study hard, and get into touch teams in Uni, (preferably the same :D) and play for each other again. We'll study to play.

School really sucks now. (LIKE BIG TIME LA WALAOEH), but let's press on just for all of us. (: Few more months, and we'll be facing this big fat thing which is know as A's. And then a few more months, we'll all be crying for joy like shit in the hall.

Simply because, SRJC touch rugby girls = 100% enters Uni.

:D

and Mr Andrew's quote will come in handy again, "This time next year, those of you have soldiered on will look back and be amazed at what you've achieved." - all of us enter Uni. ALL OF US. ALL THE CENTRES, LINKS, AND WINGERS WILL BE IN NUS/NTU/SMU.

3 cheers for SR touch! We can do it!

p.s.: by the way, I'm intending to change this blog's url add. i intend to add our year(which is 07) behind it srtouchrug so that our juniors can take srtouchrug08 and we can still continue to use this blog to contact one another.

how's that? (:

love,
nette.
yo rmb this pple?!

Mr Andrew's email for us: one year ago.
siewsiew reminded me :D

If you all are traumatised by ytd's training, here's a sth to reflect on
Perseverence
When things seem difficult and life uphill,
Don't look too far ahead, keep plodding on.
Inch by inch, the road will shorten
Till the rough patches be past and gone;
And you'll look back surprised and delighted to find
That you have left so many miles behind.
Very soon the tedious climb will stop,
And you will stand triumphant at the top.


This time next year, those of you have soldiered on will look back and be amazed at what you've achieved.

we did it, as a team :D

takecare & study hard, ashley.

*GASPS*

OMYGAWD. :( I stumbled upon this photos while exploring my camera's archive.

GOSH, DON'T KILL MEEEEE!!! (at least i posted all these up ok. nnp) THESE PICS ARE TAKEN ON SW'S 17TH BURDDAY.

YES. there are a few unglam shots of her, as well as some of us. it's okay lah huh? Just in case, for some of us, unglam is the new sexy. HAAHAHAHHA. and also, JUST IN ANOTHER CASE, if the person that's being unglamed in the photos happen to become a celebrity in the future, we can use this photos to extort food/gilbert from them *SMILES WIDELY*

IM KIDDENG. ANYWAY. THE MAIN IDEA OF ME POSTING THESE PHOTOS IS: I though it would be a good to include this is our collage of ourselves (DUH). Anyone up to make a vid for all of us? we can include these in. check out the smiling wewe SW.

& the cake which i clearly remember xiuxiu and moi running after bus 81 so that we won't be late for training, somemore must secretly bring the cake in. walaooooo.

AND AND the days when I was fairer than now. :(YA LA, vic is the fairest! HAHAHAHAHA )

ENJOY, all the hot stuffs :D

oh and before i forget, i think it'll be a good idea to bring cameras along for the next few trainings, to capture our usual retarded selves. (: eg: SW's wayang dance, val's bimbotic momentslife, cheryl and jinwen's drama moments, mr andrew's british accent moments, brigette on the berge of exploding moments, ashley proclaiming as vincey moments, xiaoting's limping moments, grace and my no money to buy cloth moments...etc. AND OMG, VICTORIA'S FAIREST MOMENTS. YES

no lah, just bring. not say we don't like to take photos anyway.......















LOVE,

AH NEH.

Defend, with heart.

Hello Champs!

Today's game was just *&$%#@!# FUNTASTIC. We had fun, and it was a fantastic play at every game. I think this year, we left pretty muchALL of our opponents -speechless-. To think we've come far. From the the CMI team that was continuosly being thrashed by other schools (which are apparently lousier than us) to the current Champs. (: Other than not getting too complacent, i think we can give ourselves a big pat on our shoulders and say 'GG' to all of us.

OKAY, let me review the scores today. I wanted to review the entire competition but I forgot I have short term memory(STM) and rather limited storage capacity due to CHINGAHPORE'S EDUCATION SYSTEM. I'm so sorry, you guys can add on, you know, people with funtastic memory.

(eh, i just realised that today got no holy people. :( )

Okay, enough of my nonsense. -ahem- if the scores are wrong, please EDIT them by all means. XIU XIU wants to see the scores (:

1st round
SRJC (C) vs SRJC A
4-0

2nd round
SRJC (C) vs RJC
2-0

3rd round
SRJC (C) vs TP
1-1

4th round
SRJC (C) vs NTU
0-0

Semi-Finals
SRJC (C) vs SP
1-0

Finals
SRJC (C) vs RP
2-1

As quoted by Derelyn, "your defence is ROCK SOLID"

Coach Carter is THE movie. Although I've watched it like a million times, this is like one of the few times I(I believe, we) got motivated to study like crap for this year's CT just in order to NOT get removed from just trainings. GAHHHH. i mean, like who would study for CTs? (okay, maybe there are)

Please pardon my blabbers because it's kinda obvious that my mind isn't functioning quite well at the thought of the ending of holidays, which also means it's the start of the new damn term. Although I'm quite looking forward to wednesday, because we can get our shiny finey medals from MR TTH&gang, with Val & Sly holding the trays. (:

& I am still very traumatised by the hugging scene of the 2 indian guys sitting beside me. (thou shalt not take 147 ever again)

YES, AND PLEASE SAVE THE EARTH, GLOBAL WARMING IS KILLING US. I CANNOT TAHAN THE HUMID WEATHER.

p.s: i love you my dearest sly (self-proclaimed), archives have been added at YOUR request. touched right. im so efficient. MUAHAHA.

loves!
nette.(:

p.p.s: PICTURES ARE BEELOW.
Hi. After being champions, Briggs SW Nette Jiayu Val and I actually had our moments in the bus. Firstly we saw two indian gays somewhat making out at the back of the bus beside Lynette. And shortly after, this chinese tikopeh lookalike farted the moment he came into the bus and damn he was sitting 1 metre away from us and we almost died. The smell was.... overwhelming.

Okay that's not my point! Suddenly.. I remembered something.

One year ago when we attended the touch rug camp, Mr Andrew said that at the end of our journey we would be the best among all schools. He showed us Coach Carter and told us some values yadadadadadadada and you know what?! After getting thrashed like ABC JC for 325782734 times people left and started thinking that what Mr Andrew said was totally irrealistic and he was just being plain ambitious.

Then... He talked about University entry remember? He said that by the end of this year he hope to see more than 50% of our girls getting into the UNI. After training so hard and getting what we really deserved, I feel that 50% is JUST TOO LITTLE! Now I feel like being more ambitious. I have this feeling all our top 14 girls will make it into the university.

IMAGINE!!!!!!!!!!!

Above 75 points for Alevels 2008

I see that you guys are often stressed over homework, schoolwork, blahblahblahblahblah and I really don't know how to go about comforting you guys because I myself is a victim of Singapore's Education along with my skills of procrastination I don't really have any right to tell you guys what to do. Or the shit is that I can't even make things easier for myself. But again, I'm very very very sure you guys have been all bursting your 80% in your studies! So really, don't give up and keep pushing! If you've done badly for this common test please don't fret because it's not the end of the world. If anyone at any point in time wants to organise study sessions together, just go ahead alright God knows if it's the secret to our future success. After you guys step down, we could always make Wednesdays and Fridays group studying days.

And if you're really stressed YOU ARE WELCOMED TO EXPLODE ON ME ANYTIME ANYWHERE I WILL BUY YOU MARKS&SPENCER DIGESTIVES BISCUITS AND RUFFLES CHEDDAR.

Ok this is the end of what I want to say I'm just worried and stuffs like that. Wo ai ni ai zhe ni jiu xiang lao hu ai da mi ok bye.


ps: nette, can add archives not? or else cannot see the past posts!

Hello guys. Turning 18 is an emotional phase because this is Sylvia you are talking about.

You guys have birthday messages for me, I have birthday messages for you guys too! So here ithe grandmother story goes:

For the past one year, I had my ups and downs in SR(that includes seeing Jiayu cry). But all that kept me going through, even until the moment where I got retained, is the team.
From the very day we started cheating in back 5,
playing touch with the boys who just refuse to back 5,
having people discussing about econs/edison chen during training,
apologizing and receiving apologizes on the pitch for not doing a good job,
From Serena,
Miss Lam's psychotic fartleks and endless sprints,
to a change of coach an awesome coach,
dinner after training,
getting so fascinated by Lycee Francaise's changing room,
getting our water bottles all mixed up,
passion flowing into this endless pit,
realising that Soklyn obviously has a talent in playing frisbee,
exploding and witnessing explosions,
robert and mucus wheeeeeeeeee,
having Mr Andrew like our king,
named our moves nehneh and baba and created the tuapehgong dive,
producing talents who found the way to my place to deliver me the marks&spencer hamper,
and of course Lynette complaining about all her monstrous tutors,
to this very day where I turn 18...

I've met some who have became the best of friends, and truly, madly, deeply, THIS TEAM IS ACTUALLY THE GREATEST GIFT I'VE EVER RECEIVED.
(I'm not kidding, don't believe ask my mother)

Sounds mushy huh? But I'm serious!

& of course to dear Xiaoting, I hope the sinseh has been doing a great job! Last but not least, thank you to Vic, Brigs, Jiayu, Seow Wei and Lynette for teaching me how to dive. If I can dive, all of you J2s here can score above 75 points for Alevels! Once again, thank you, and I love you people :)



♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
THE ONE.
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY OUR DEAREST SYLVIA HO turned manager turned camera woman turned carebear!!

STUDY SESSIONS

HELLO PEOPLE! THIS BLOG IS SERIOUSLY OVERWHELMING HAHAHAHAHHA.

First and foremost, I hope you guys like the HONEY BUNCHES OF OATS CEREAL! And of course I hope Ashley liked her very unsurprising surprise omg.

Although I didn't play yesterday, I had more than enough fun zooming seow wei/jiayu/vic's agonizing/constipated faces.

Since I can't wait to see you people's names appear on the top students list next March(And Soklyn will be our first female PCME scholar in history)..... I have decided to do my part by organising something exciting, interesting and happening! I was just thinking if you guys want to study/complete your assignments at somewhere conducive like community centers or libraries or empty cafes after this Wednesday/Friday's training. You guys can discuss the difficult topics or share mindmap/ideas together since Mr Andrew thought this should be a good idea. If it turns out productive, that's really for the win! Don't worry, I will cover Val's mouth to ensure that her high-pitched voice does not disrupt our study session. I'm open to suggestions! Please feedback :)




Your dearest manager turned camera woman turned carebear syl.
WE SHOULD HAVE AN OUTING/CHALET ONE DAY DURING THE JUNE HOLS. (:
