206 out of 344.

yeah. that's the number of people that made it back in to HC after JAE.

i really don't know what to make of it. all i pray is that the people who truly deserve to stay will stay, and i really want to thank God for letting me and many others stay on. it's truly a miracle. also really glad for bong, mei ying and mian who made it in here as well!! X) congrats, guys. :D

congrats to the rest too, glad you're all relatively pleased with your posting. jia you for 2007, "chiong" and "pia" everything so that you can ace your tests and do SC proud. :)

i feel really bad for the people who're in a state of emotional turmoil as a result of having to report unexpectedly to a totally unfamiliar environment tmr. what's more we've got a bio test! >.< i'm taking a short break from it and stealing some time on the com to update my blog cuz i just can't contain the injustice within me. i think i've got to learn to get a better grip over my emotions. XP anyway, 3 big questions:

1. what are the 2nd intake people gonna do when we sit for our bio test? (and also, what about those people who have to report to other schools tmr and hence can't sit for the bio test? what if they make it back in here?)

2. is there gonna be orientation? yeah, so we're mostly an IP school. but even the IP students have got to know the 2nd intake people better too, right? surely there should be some form of orientation. then again, when will it be? we've still got lessons. i know there's a CCA exhibition tmr, but is that really all?

3. how and when will we know our classes? the 2nd intake people have nowhere to report to. i'm bringing bong to our class bench, but what about the rest? they can't possibly just stand anywhere during flag raising. unless we'll know our classes before that...? o_o I DON'T WANT OUR CLASS TO CHANGE. hey wait. we're only selecting our subject combi on the 8th and 9th. EH. that means we'll only know our classes on the 9th? O_O

JAE is so confusing. i wish they'd be more specific at times. but i guess the admin department is also swarmed with work, so they can't manage to do so many things within such a short time.

all the best to new hwa chong-ians! and people trying out for M.A.D!!! jia you and go for it, man. X)
