Victoria Challenge.
[ Now Listening To: My Chemical Romance - Welcome To The Black Parade ]
Damn suay loh. Thurs morning got that red shirt thing. I wanted to be in the 'V', but I still got stuck in the 'S'. Everyone pang-sei me go 'V' and I got stuck amongst Sec 4s. Haha. At least Rodney and Sean was with me. And we were with the Sec 3 cohort. So it's okay la.
The opening ceremony. Not bad la. Except the fact that the torch got extinguished before reaching the stage because the speech given was too long. Haha. Then Mr Tan got to light the pit with matches instead. Quite a hilarious scene really. Still, me and Wei Guang anticipated the whole 'Torch Extinguished before Burning the Pit' thingy. You got to give thumbs up for the scouts who had to stay up all day and night to keep the fire alive. =P
The party-poppers. Pity those who got to clean it up. But there's this one confetti which entered my sweaty shirt. Oh well. At least it was pink. =.= The VS Unite Cheer, quite soft on my end la. Cuz I was right at the side of the Sec 3 cohort, next to the Band.
After which, we went back to class to assign duties for the video. Morning we videoed and recorded the class singing the school song at the Parade Square and at the AVA Room. We coped the VS Flag from the Hall to make a not-so-stunning-yet-stunning background when they sing. Sad to say, some say slower than others. Some say louder than others. So the end product was not harmonious.
Lunch we had Canadian Pizza. =D All belanja-ed by our dear Mr Wong. ^^
Then in the afternoon, we vedioed us cheering various cheers at the foyer. We cheered the VS Unite, which is not bad, cheered Spelling Cheer, which sounded like shit towards the end, and VS Power, where everyone dao-ed Walter's cue for the 'Pow Pow Power!' Haha. He looked retarded in the video when everyone dao-ed his cue.
Then we dismissed those 23 people who were dying to go to Zion so much. Since we no longer require their assistance, we dismissed them. With 17 people left, we tried filming the 'acting' part. But sadly, the sunlight is too bright causing an overexposure in the video camera. So we gave ourselves a long break till 6pm. =D
Saw other classes challenges. I personally liked 3J's one. No duh. It's Danial Pua's idea. I like the Art Corner too. Really classy. But I hated the toilet door on the 5th level. Really ugly. If I'm not mistaken, it's painted by Yu Fan's class.
3H damn slack la. Just paint DnT benches White. And that only took a few hours. =.= 3I also. Take class photo at every MRT Station. Not say that taking photos at MRT Stations are illegal la. But what can you expect from RO's class. Heard that 3F *almost* everyone went to Zion from the beginning of the challenge and that they were forced to remain in school when they were caught. So they started their challenge late at night after a long scolding, when Peh decided it was a mistake to send them 'home' in the morning.
And guess who sabo-ed them. Bobo.
[ Now Listening To: Beyonce & Shakira - Beautiful Liar (Spanish Version) ]
Editing time afterwards. While me and Oswin edits. The rest were filming the acting portion. Editing took a lot out of me. Me and Oswin were sleeping in shifts to edit. Since the rest don't know how to edit, they were given the freedom to use the computers in the Development Lab, if they know the password. Mainly, Amit hacked into every computer. =.= At least those with Internet connectivity. Others were either playing sports or slacking in one corner of the air-conditioned Development Lab playing Pokemon. =.=
Wafiy did a super cool rap for the MTV. Not bad considering it was composed in a few hours. Great job K-Master!
Dinner. Planned to order BOTH Macs and KFC, since Mr Wong gave us $150 for 17 people. But then we decided to just order one since we'll be too bloated. Not really. But still.... x) Big mistake though, to order Macs first. Cuz later at night, we were thinking to order KFC, when we forgot that KFC doesn't deliver 24 hours. Haiz. So ended up having Macs for both dinner and supper.
[ Now Listening To: The All-American Rejects - It Ends Tonight ]

Taken in the wee hours in the morning, I was sleeping behind Oswin. =/ Actually fell off the chairs and woke up. But that was just a short 15 min nap. Practically stayed up all night, except at 3. I was too tired and slept on the chairs again. Woke up at 4-ish because it was too cold. Someone said that I was shivering in my sleep and gave one of the 'burrrr' which sounded as if I was possessed. xD Haha.
3F crashed the lab early in the morning since they can't go to Zion. But the only place they can go with the Macs there are Youtube.com and Miniclip.com
[ Now Listening To: Gwen Stefani - 4 In The Morning ]Looked out the window and saw Rodney pushing the trolley of soccer balls around, looking very pitiful. Haha. He really looked like a beggar in his conditions at that time of the night/day. Also saw more McDelivery bikes. Which proves that the students are too rich spending Mac the whole night.
Finished the whole editing phase at around 5 to 6-ish, when someone is finally smart enough to switch off 3 of the air-con units there. The end product really sucks to me. The video part is okay. But the audio very no good. There's a lot of miscellaneous background music when recording so main audio very fuzzy. Then the audio transition, very not smooth. It's like some are louder than other. Some are of a higher pitch than others. Sad that neither Final Cut Pro or GarageBand can edit the audio transitions. =(
I don't know whether the Guest Of Honour really wants to view this. Seriously, I think his hair will stand on ends. xP
Then we quickly exported the file and transfer it to a Thumb Drive.
Had around 2 to 3 hours of free time before the Closing Ceremony. So we watched more Youtube. =3 Watched Bleach 133. Rock on man!
Closing Ceremony. Not say many did not turn up. Cuz can't be bothered to come to school for assembly, clean up and then go back home. =.= Sagar overslept too. Haha. But looking at all the projects the student had done, I'd say they had done a terrific job this Victoria Challenge.
[ Now Listening To: Fall Out Boy - Thnks Fr Th Mmrs ]After dismissal, saw 3H playing soccer and basketball. Quite envious that they have the energy. No duh. Their challenge was super slack. Heard that their challenge was impromptu since they didn't submit a proposal. Oh well. =/
Went to Zion with Nawawi and Farhan after that for an hour before heading to Masjid Kampong Siglap for Friday Prayers. The rest of my class was watching Harry Potter and the Order Of The Pheonix at TM. Sad that I can't join them cuz of Friday prayers. =(
Went home straight after prayers. Too tired. I just went to bed and immediately slept for 6 hours. Emo-ed in the reflection toilet for 1 hour. Finished and uploaded the next PSL Session Lesson Plan during the next hour. Then blogged about this. Haha. x)
