As always mention, time passes fast. A blink of eye and I have completed my second year in Polytechnic. Coming this April will be my third year polytechnic. Throughout this two years of studying in Ngee Ann, I have endured throughout different experiences and encounters many lifelong knowledge. In Ngee Ann, there are many opportunities given to students to learn and gain new experience, skills or knowledge. Whether you can grab this opportunity, it will be a different story. Through grabbing the opportunity, you will meet new friends and having lot of friends, but these do not show that they are your true friends. A true friend embrace your weakness and give you the faith. Sometime, they become your pillar of strength. While sometime, friendship between true friend and myself can be distance apart as year passes. Learning to be forgiving, gratitude, appreciate and open-minded, it take times to adapt and learn through every moment in your life.Saturday, 2 March 2013 Since it is my school holiday, I decided to help out in House Cleaning event at Bedok North. It was organised by Ngee Ann Polytechnic Leo Club. Upon reaching the venue, there are other students participating in this event too. They are from Victoria Junior College and private institution. Everyone is separated into groups and each group is responsible to clean for a one-room household flat. Upon arriving to the elderly one-room HDB flat, I am amazed that he keeps the house clean and tidy. The task of cleaning his house is easy. I heard from my group mates who has the past experiences in house cleaning commented that they cleaned a house before with full of junks and lots of thick dusts. Thus, this is a simple job to them. We divide the tasks and start to clean. Fortunately, our group have about 10 peoples which make the work easy and efficient. It took us less than two hours to complete it. Beside, it is my pleasure to enjoy cleaning this house as the elderly quietly sit on his chair and watch television, as to prevent interrupting us. Once we are done, he expressed his gratitude with his smile and mentioned "Thank You".  Tuesday, October 09, 2012 2:07:00 PM
Monday, September 24 to Friday, September 28 2012Ngee Ann Polytechnic is organising Math Carnival 2012 in Convention Centre for Secondary School students where they will be enjoying math-related games and understanding our school better. The theme for this year is Japan which there will be cos-players moving around and game booths are named as some of the famous mountains or buildings. In this case, I signed up to be a student helper and I was stationed in a game booth, Mount Fuji. Monday, September 24 In Mount Fuji, Secondary students have to solve a maths question and crawl under the table in darkness (A maze built by tables) which will lead them to the correct exit. All together, there are at least 200 tables in the maze and it has occupy half of the Convention Centre. By setting up the routes to crawl filled with tables and covering it with cloths, trash bags and newspaper, it took us 7 hours. There are 12 booth helpers including me and some of the student leaders. It is tedious job but I feels good to hear other lecturers are praising our booth to have the best decorated compared to other booths. Tuesday, September 25 to Friday, September 28 Secondary students from all over Singapore come to Ngee Ann Polytechnic with a exciting mood. There are school buses fetching them to and fro. Upon arriving to Ngee Ann Convention Centre, they will be welcome by our student leaders and Emcees of Math Carnival 2012. They are provided with refreshment and each station or booths, there will be a souvenir (Ugly dolls) to be given to each student. Before the end of the event, there will be a certificate to be given to the top 3 who participate in the Maths Carnival Quiz. Helping out in Math Carnival allows you to make new friends and interact with the Secondary students. It is interesting and fun as you will get to learn new experiences. 10:52:00 AM
10 months have passed. Within these 10 months, I didn't touch on my blog to write all the experiences I had experienced.During March and April 2012, a new journey has created. A journey that I didn't expect beforehand, which is staying at overseas five weeks. I joined Ngee Ann Oversea Immersion Program to China, Tianjin to study two modules that are going to be exempted in my Year 2 semester. I made local friends, being independent for the first time without my parents, washing my clothes and handle my basic necessities. During March, it was a cold weather where it can vary from average -1 to 10 degree Celsius. Beside this, experience snow for a day is what I has yearned for where Singapore climate is not suitable for winter season. This five weeks of staying in Oversea have mark an memorable journey in my life. For more details of what I do in Tianjin everyday, visit xiaowinter LiveJournal. Monday, August 27, 2012 12:56:00 PM
Everyone has to experience this cycle but it is painstaking to see her leave. Her thought, mother's and grandmother's love, unselfishly thinking of others, but not herself. Even at the last moment, she is still thinking for others. In her life, she had cured many people using her knowledge and wisdom and have given out more than she gave herself.Seeing her deteriorate, it pains me. It has been a month and the changes is tremendous. The regret that I have cannot be fulfill. Now what I hope is, she is able to live a better life in her next life. This time, you must be doted and being loved. Love is the greatest power in the world. Sunday, October 02, 2011 11:08:00 AM
Monday, September 12 At evening, I met Jieting and Priscilla at Hua Yi's bus stop before we went to our destination, Jurong East. Reaching there, we went to buy snacks and drinks at NTUC Fairprice. We met Victoria in the Fairprice before we were heading back to the bus stop that we alighted. While we were waiting at the bus stop, we saw kwang Hui and Wan Yi. Was it a coincidence or a pre-arranged? Well, It was a pre-arranged. Happy Plants were meeting up at Ying Xiang's house for Mid-Autumn Festival. We chosen a place to sit at the void deck. After that, we ate while gossiping all the romance or awesome events in our poly life. The most interesting story at that night was Priscilla. Haha. Time passed fast, it was close to 11pm. We had sat down and chit-chat for more than three hours. Before we were heading home, we took a lot of group photos. :)  Tuesday, September 27 to Thursday, September 29 Victoria and I had a CCA camp and stayed in the Loft 94 for 3 days 2 nights. For the first day, we reported at School of Life Sciences & Chemistry Technology (LSCT) LT 76 at 9.45am. The camp leaders and facilitators introduced themselves and gave us some briefing. As usual for camp on the first day, there are ice-breaking games. In this case, we played ice-breaking game- introducing ourselves. After that, we created a banner/ logo and a cheers song for our team. Victoria and I were in Blue Team. After a short discussion, we called ourselves as SmurfyStars. At 12 noon, we went to Loft 94 to put our bags. Well, the apartment was nice. There were 3 rooms, two of the rooms had two beds while the last room had three beds, a master bathroom and a small balcony. Not only this, there was a kitchen with basic utensils such as microwave, electric kettle and fridge. Victoria and I chosen a room with two beds. There were four people living in the apartment although this apartment are suitable for nine people to stay in.    We ate lunch at LSCT. The food contained rice, tofu, chicken and cabbage. After eating, we were playing a game that often appeared in taiwan variety show "Power Sunday (POWER星期天) and 綜藝大國民" or korean variety show " 100 out of 100 points". Each participant's forehead has a card that represents words of action/talk and the participant must not said it out or do the action. In this case, participants must sabotage other participants. We had an amazing race game in the campus. There were 5 stations and each team must complete each stations mission, in order to get the clue before we can move on. It was fun but our team got second to finish the race. We went back to Loft 94 to shower before we reported back to LSCT LT 76 at 7pm for dinner. The food was Bee-Hoon, egg, fish and cabbage. After eating, we watched a move, "Freedom Wright". The movie was produced from a true-story and it was interesting. A story of a teacher who never give up on a bunch of students who were seem by others as a hopeless and useless people. We went back to Loft 94 around 10 plus pm to have a nice sleep! Second day of the camp We were to report at 8.15am at the football field. Today's activities were wet and dirty games. Before the start of a first game, they taught us some warming game. Their warming game were unique. Instead of stretching, we had to play squarebob spongepants game and math cum evolving from egg to superman game.After warming game, we went to eat breakfast at LSCT - breads with grape jam and creamy peanut butter. For today activities, we got into a team called Bangladesh. All my team mates were different from SmurfyStars. The first game was two persons from each team had to pick up a t-shirt from a plastic bag that had different size and wore it. It look easy, right? That's wrong! The t-shirt had been frozen with a block of ice. I heard from the facilitators that the t-shirts had been in the fridge for 2 days. In order to wear it, we had to break the ice surrounding and inside the shirt. Seems easy? but when you do it, it is not easy at all! Have to start from hammering the ice with a rock, using hand to warm it and scrapping it on the floor. From a wonderful and perfect white shirt, it had became a grey rag shirt with holes. Second game was separated into different sections. First section was putting darlie toothpaste on each other faces. Second section, we had to shave the cream off from a balloon using a shaver after we had put shaving cream onto the balloon. My both hands was filled with shaving cream- white foam. The last section were wetting our hair before putting tons of shampoo on our hair and scrap our hair to get the most foams from it. This game was horrible! Everyone had lost a few strand of hairs. We only get to wash our face- darlie toothpaste, hand-shaving cream and hair-shampoo after this game. It was Lunch Time - rice, egg, chicken and cabbage. After lunch, we went to play team game. Each person stand at a station with different challenge and had to pass a message to the last person. I was in second station. First station: Eating celery in order to get the message. Second station: Hear the message from the first person and wrote it on a tape, and pasting it on the celery and passed it to the third person. However, before doing all that, second person had to play a rhyme using a pair of chopstick and hit the box. It look like drum. Third station: Third person had to bite the celery with the message pasted on it and crawl under the net or strings which was filled with toothpaste on it. That was not the worse. The field area that he was crawling was filled with flour. While the third person was crawling, there were water- bombs and flour attacking the person. Fourth station: The fourth person had to peel the skin of a celery that he received from the third person. After peeling, he had to memorise the message from the tape and had to eat the celery before moving on. Fifth station: Reveal the message! After this game, we played captain water-ball. Instead of a real and hard ball, we used the a water ball that is filled with water in a plastic bag. We went back to Loft 94 to shower before we had to rehearse our talent performance. For SmurfyStars team, we decided to do a skit - combination of Romeo and Juliet and Indian accent smurf. One day, indian accent smurfieo (guy) fell in love with american smurfiet (girl) but smurfieo dad opposed. Thus, smurfieo's dad went to look for chipmunk accent witch to make a potion to turn smurfiet (girl) into a smurfiet(guy). When smurfiet turns into a guy, smurfiet(guy) got kidnapped by the witch in a tower. In order to save smurfiet, Smurfieo went to look for Harry potbelly (harry potter) and Snape. Harry Potbelly and snape fight with the witch and eventually, they killed the witch. To allow smurfiet(guy) to change back to smurfiet(girl), smurfieo kissed her and they lived happily ever after. We ate dinner at LSCT - Bee Hoon with tou fu, fish and cabbage. After eating, it was the talent time performance! Our team was the last to perform. It was interesting and fun to watch other team performance and the teamwork in our team. We had a party after the performance; Dance dance dance with light off and loud music. It was the last night of the camp and before the night end, everyone sat down in a circle and had a reflection regarding about this camp. Last day of the camp I waked up at 7.30am to get myself ready and packed my stuff done before 8.30am. Before everyone check out of Loft 94, there will be a supervisor to check our apartment - We had to strip off and fold the bed-sheet, pillowcase and blankets, and clearing the rubbish bin. We went to LSCT to eat breakfast- bread with tuna and creamy peanut butter. After that, we played some games such as placing a potato-chip on your forehead and move the potato-chip with your facial expression and ate it. After the games, we took a group and team photos before we ate lunch - rice with chicken, toufu and cabbage. It was 1pm. Everyone was saying goodbye to each other. The camp had ended!  SmurfyStars Team! ♥  Wednesday, June 15, 2011 5:24:00 PM
Today it is a meaningful day for me. Ah Vic, Ah Wan, Ying Xiang and me went to help out at flag day as a volunteers. We report at Jurong East Mrt station at 8am and each of us is given a donation tin. Our job are to give a chance for public to donate to Muhammadiyah Welfare Home (MWH). At the beginning, we walked together but soon we are separated. Ying Xiang and I, each of us occupy a bus stop whereas the others, i am not sure about their location. Occupying at the bus stop for 2 hours and 30 minutes, i had encountered a different feeling compared to last year, Secondary 4 flag day. Approaching the people waiting for bus or alighting from the bus stop or taxi, they are generous with their money although it may be coins which it can reach to the lowest amount of 10-cents. First scenario: I approached a school boy along the way to the bus-stop, asking whether do he want to donate. He has rejected me. Since he has rejected me, i went to the bus-stop and standing near to a convenience shop. But coincident, he went to buy a drink at convenience shop and just a blink of eye, he is standing in front of me! His hand hold a dollar coin and he put it into my donation tin. Second scenario: We had an eye contact. Thus, i approached this young lady, probably 20 to 30 plus years old and asked her the same question; "Hi miss, do you want to donate?" Her first word that came out of her mouth is " What is this donation/charity for?" I explained to her about the information of MWH; "It provide care and protection for young children and young adults, and their age are range from 10 to 16 years old.", " they come from disadvantaged family background such as low-income families or low achievers sub-culture." and "we hope to raise fund to hit the target of S$1 million dollars". After hearing it, she took out a ten dollar note from her wallet and place it into the donation tin. Wow, she surprised me! She is the first one who donated such a huge amount. Before she leave, she said to me, " Do your best! " This is my first time hearing such a heart-warming sentence in my community service of flag day. Third scenario: A teenager and some of the adults donated all the coins they had it with them and the sum can reach to a minimum of $2. Whatever reasons they have, probably wish to reduce the load of their pockets or wallet, i still consider as their thoughts are counted. At 10.30am, four of us met together. We had a short conversation before Ah Vic and I decided to go to Clementi Bus-stop whereas the remaining went to IMM. Reaching clementi bus-stop, i saw my girlfriend's male friend and had a short conversation about our modules before he went up to the bus. And i didn't forget asking him to donate. I teaches Ah Vic on the tactics on approaching the public at the Clementi Mall bus-stop. After seeing her getting comfortable with the surrounding or rather a bit of it, i left her alone and went to the opposite side of the bus-stop. I went to approach the public who are waiting for bus but it is not effective. Thus, i changed my location to where escalator is which link up from Clementi bus-stop and Clementi Mrt Station. This is better even though there are not much people donating compared to the location at Jurong East bus-stop. I believe either the public are rushing for their bus or train, or need me to approach them. Oh ya, I want to praise those people who took initiative to donate. Fourth scenario: The details are the same as second scenario except this lady is around 40 plus years old. Fifth scenario: A elderly probably 70 plus years old had donated although she has financial difficulty and ailment. Sixth scenario: A father who have dysfunctional gave his son a dollar and asked him to donate. It is so awesome because he is able to take initiative compared to some of the public who have everything including what the father does not have. Seventh scenario: A Ngee Ann student who are in the same year as me took the initiative to donate even though i do not know her. We had a short conversation. For example, what course are you from? It is my pleasure to meet her. I hope i could meet her again. :) At 1pm, we report back to the venue to return our donation tin and signing off before Ah Vic and I went for lunch at Jurong Point- PepperLunch. I would like to express my gratitude to the public who had donated to MWH. Regardless of the amounts you has donated and whether you take initiative or i approach you, your kindness has touch my heart even though it took a second for me to know you. For the public who didn't do it, try to make the effort to help those people who are voluntarily in flag day. They have to stand at least a few hours to try engaging all of you to donate for a good cause. You can start to make a difference to the needy by donating a small amount; five, ten or twenty cents.

Going through polytechnic life for almost two months contain a mixed feelings. At the start of the journey, everything was new and strange. It was like everything had to start from scratch; The learning style and acquiring new friends. But the process of acquiring with new friends, it was not a easy task of unveiling your heart to them. It definitely took time for you to identify a person's character. Of course, i befriended with new friends after those months. Having met with different personalities were eye opening for me. This is the world that i have to face in the future.However getting used to the life, it can be quite interesting. Gaining more knowledge and probably enjoying this journey. It is myth to have this statement - "Polytechnic life is easy and there are no homework or hardly have it? " A delay of works could cause more workload to come forward. It needs to clear before the deadline. Sunday, April 03, 2011 5:32:00 PM
Friday, 1st april 2011Mr lim, Qi yin and I went to Mdm Keh's house. Before that, Qi Yin and I met in the school to wait for Mr Lim. We took his car to get to the location as Mdm Keh was staying in the east side. At 7.10pm, we had reached her estate carpark. After that, we went to take a lift. In the lift, there were a Caucasian male and three of us. He was friendly and asked us some questions such as are u living here? Mr lim chatted with him. Oh ya, I did a crazy or embarrassing action since today was april fool. When he step out of the lift, i told him " Happy April fool!" His expression was surprise or rather shocked. He might thought that i am crazy. "I was so embarrassed." said Mr Lim. Qi Yin also laughed too. We reached her studio apartment and were welcomed by Mdm keh, her husband and three dogs; baby, sweetie and peanut. Although it was a studio apartment, but Mdm keh had a small swimming pool at the roof-top. It look like a semi-detached house. Sitting at the open shelter, the scenery was beautiful especially at night and it was windy. It was the ideal place to relax. Rain drop fall on my cheek and tiles, we went back into the house. Not long after that, Pizzahut delivery man knock on the door, with two large pizzas on his hand. We ate while we chat everything we know. Time passed so fast while we were chatting that I didn't realise the time. It was 9pm. |
Goodbye.
