Daylight Robbery..only once in a blue moon

This is one of the most rare moments i experienced when I'm in my room.
At approximately 2pm today, I was doing my add maths work when I felt there's an animal walking around outside. A man with white shirt walking on the roof. Well, I was too bored so I took out my camera and started taking pictures.
Robbery, that's what I thought at that moment. Observe this pictures below:

They are trying to enter the next house. Greedy robbers.

Mr White Shirt Guy is happy with whatever he's doing.


No mercy to plants too. I wondered what will happen to me if I was there. Probably I will end up in the hospital with no arms and legs anymore.

Then Mr White Shirt Guy caught me taking pictures. I was like 'oh shit, he saw me. Damn, will he climb up my house and attack me?'

Then he stared at me for a long 30 seconds and finally said "Oi, what u looking at? Please don't call the police. How about this, I show you 2 magic tricks and you pretend that you did not see anything, okay?' (in mandarin)

I agreed. He chopped of a tree branch and put it on the roof.

And Poof, he turned the branch to flame! Cool stuff eh..

I was entertained to the max wei. So the next magic trick, his partner did another trick.
Check it out, by throwing a tree branch to his direction, he became half naked!
Haha. What if Alex possessed such skills to perform this magic trick? Many girls will be screaming i guess..haha..(Alex dont scold me yea)


Mr White Shirt Guy showed off. Cheh. So action. haha.

I threw 2 cans of drinks to them and told them i was looking forward to seeing them again next time, with more magic tricks. haha.


Okay, first confirm H1N1 case in EC. Rahul from 3 Cendekis is in ICU now.
Nash Teo got mc for 3 days while Amirul sitting between Nash and I got mc for 5 days.
I'm still fine. haha.
Derreck, who's sitting behind Amirul not feeling well also.

Some nice st jon group pictures below:

Lastly, Happy Birthday in advance to Jethro Lim Yong Shen, my boss in st jon. haha.


That is all for now. chao

Mighty Minds 09

Supposingly 60 teams took part, however 2 schools did not turn up. EC sent two teams for each category, which were F123 and F4f5.

So Mr Lim, accompanying teacher for my team (f4f5) consisting of Ashwin, Amirul and I were to be in front of Mcd at 9 am. The captain of EC and my team, Amirul reached there at 9.45 am. Very punctual indeed. Another team which consist of Sean, Irwin and Jian Qin were well-dressed with the blazer of EC.

Round 1. Quiz on Science, Maths and General Knowledge. 20 questions. So my team got 4th out of 58 teams. My team got 17/20 questions correct, so that's a good start. However, Sean's team got 35th place and did not make it to Round 2. Sad case. Both EC's teams for F123 got the same marks which were 17/20. Great achivement. So EC was down with 3 teams.

Round 2. Those F123 participants were instructed to design a human eyeball and to show that an image was formed on the retina. Both teams made it to top5. Good Job.

My team's turn. F4f5 were instructed to design a projector using convex len/lenses to magnify the word 'Mighty Minds' on the screen. And catastrophe took place. It all went well at first, where we discussed the design and me drawing the design on a piece of paper. Then comes the part where we tried MANY times figuring out where to place the convex lenses and object to form a clear and magnified image on the screen. We spent too much time on that.

If we took the Hints from the judges (which will deduct 20 marks), we need not to think the concept already.
If we did the set up of apparatus, we will at least get some marks.
Bue the thing was we did not finish up the design and left the materials as if they were 'dead'. Amirul (the undertaker) took a manila card (clothe) to cover the materials (dead body).

Epic failure to the max. Though most of the teams did not get the final image done, they managed to finish up the set up of the design. It was all Physics actually. If they were to provide
concave and convex lenses, my team would be able to make it to the Top 5 as I remembered the positions of the lenses and the object. But Lady Luck was not on my side.

In a nutshell, being smart will not make you great. Because no one is perfect and God created everyone differently. Students who are smart will not be good in hands on activities while vice versa to those who are just average in studies.

All the best to all conventies who will be having formative 2 on the 20th of July, especially those who are in Form 5. Till next time.
