Dear OG Mates:
The purpose of this is to convey to you my sincerest apologies for not joining you all for our weekly (compulsory) OG dinner today.
Let me explain the reasons behind my actions. After today's concert preview, it was raining somewhat heavily. One of my close friends mentioned that she had forgotten to bring her umbrella and needed someone to shelter her out of school. Being the very kind and helpful person I am, I felt that as her friend of more than 6 years, it was my duty to oblige her. In addition, she kindly offered to share a cab home with me in return. Having had a Physics test earlier that day, I was both physically and mentally drained. Hence, that made it even harder for me to refuse her offer.
However, during the taxi ride home, I reflected on my actions and I realised how insensitive I was. To have made everyone wait for me (and sam) and not turn up eventually despite having agreed earlier on in the day is simply an irresponsible thing to do. Therefore, I decided that I will never let such a thing ever happen again. If I do not plan to go for the OG dinner at night, I will not give you all false hopes by promising to turn up and end up backing out of it at the last minute. (HEHE)
My dear L'ambadeans, let me assure you that whatever happened today will not happen again. I will continue to be committed to the OG (or at least, try to) for the rest of my time in RJC.
If you all have any other complaints, feel free to spam my email lydia90@gmail.com or instant-message me online via MSN Messenger at starcrush@hotmail.com. If you feel that there is a need for verbal communication, you can contact me at 9991-7638.
Once again, my sincerest apologies.
Yours,
Lydia Lau

Wednesday OG Dinner
Yea.. just to say right, make yourselves free on Wed night for OG dinner. If you can't make it through the week, then this is the day that you must come! The "official" dinner day..
I agree with Jacq that friends are impt, and so a bit of time spent with friends like the OG won't matter much right?
Try to make it every Wednesday k? Cya all tmr!

RAWWWRR I'm blogging from home, missing you guys because i ONLY saw you guys once today xD And feeling sorry that i didn't stay in school to have dinner with you guys. Sorry for myself, that is. 'Cos i'm missing a chance to be with you all! Rawwrrr but work's picking up and i gotta catch up with some stuff so i can dinner with you all on thursday >__^
Anyway, today my class just had the talk on hospice and i realised that, you know... Here at RJ our first priority is our grades. Every day finds us working away at our various subjects and chasing the elusive As. The two years we have here are so short, and we have so much work to do and so many topics to cover before we sit for that dreaded paper next year. But in the midst of all these, i think it's also just as important for us to build lasting friendships and bonds :) Think about it; the grades can only see us through to university. But friends see us through a lifetime.
So, I just hope that this friendship that we have begun won't just be a come-and-go thing. We might be busy with work and such; grades really ARE important after all-- but let's make the effort to spend time with one another and stay together :) Keep the L'ambadean spirit going and the friendship flowing!

term 1 draws to an end.
hi people!
it's hard to believe that it's only been two months since we first met... it feels like so much longer! and i just want to say that i am really lucky and blessed to have met you all... i don't know what i did to get into L'ambada but i'm sure it's probably something very good i did in my previous life. you all have seriously been a rocking and fun-loving bunch of great people! bestest best OG anybody could ever hope for! i am really proud of our OG and how we would do stuff like dao our classes and sit at benches waiting till 9pm for people to finish training so we can enjoy dinner together. i mean can you seriously be any more united than that? haha ohh man my class kind of dislikes me now because i kept going for OG stuff instead but i have no regrets!
these two months have been a blur of fun activities! and i feel really sad that term 1 is going to end and everything's going to be more serious from term 2 onwards! anyway this term is going to end with.....ORIENTATION 2! and i hope it would be even funner than the first orientation since we know one another better now! starting to see you all less often now (for dinner and stuff) and it's a bit sad, but weihan does have a point, we do have to concentrate on our studies also!
for those who didn't do well in their lecture tests, fret not! these tests are set by sadistic teachers who derive pleasure from seeing fail grades on students papers.
anyway! i can repeat myself over and over again but i just can't seem to stress it enough: I LOVE LAMBADA! here's to a great rocking orientation 2!

HEY ＰＥＯＰＬＥ！
Something special for the March babies??? Cool..... Haha.... (waits in anticipation)
Anyway lotsa stuff are happening in march right... with O2 and everything...
YAE O2 is coming soon and let's start planning early so that we can save ourselves the trouble of deciding like 2 days before or something..... If we decide earlier on what to do and where to go then maybe we can like, "chop" those who are usually not with the OG... Haha... Don't give them the chance to use the excuse "I didn't know about it" or "No one told me" to get out of coming for O2... Mwahahaha....
Hmm.... Can't believe term 1 is ending so quicky.... and as i sit here in my favourite place in the whole school (yes, i'm blogging in sch.. oops) and look back.... it's a mazing what can happen in just a few weeks.... I've made so many acquaintances... tried so many new things... learnt so much (3 chem chapters!!!!) and most importantly, made enough great friends to last me a lifetime.... :)
wait.... lambada is not just OG... It's family LOL.... Yup.... and i'm happy enough that the OG has lasted long enough to throw the marchie-babies a surprise!! And i really do hope that the OG will last long enough to celebrate the marchie-babies' birthdays next year! and the year after that... and the year after... :)
luff ya all,

add-on
hey l'ambadeans!
as chong min said, i think we should be slightly more sensible la. not being an nightowl, im starting to feel the effects of too many late nites...(they're kinda reflected in my abysmal grades). so i suggest we kinda just fix the dates as previously suggested by many. so we meet up every morning, thats a given. but in terms of almost nightly dinner outings. i think maybe we should cut down to wednesday being the official OG PT cum dinner day. one night for dinner, we all try to make it and have fun. coz i think even with 1 night onli, we still PWN the other OGs handsdown.
i'm kinda suggesting this coz i'm gonna be cutting down. i just need more slp la. lolz...and training is OCC is welli welli far away. so i've decided i'm going home on mondays and thursdays. but i'll still be there to lead u peeps in 2.4 every wednesday ok? coolios. XD so here's hoping this will work out. hahaz...ZzzzZZzzzzzz....
later days.

Birthday frenzy!
Hi L'ambada!
Looking at Shaun's post, when term 2 starts, we'll definitely be busy, but nevertheless, we can still find time to hang out like once a week. What's school like without the OG? And we'll still meet everyday in the morning, won't we?
Looking at the birthday list, there's quite a lot of birthdays in March. There will be something special:)
And Orientation 2 is coming soon. So excited to get to meet the OG again, esp. those ppl who haven't been around with us for some time. Haha.. it's damn funny that the first thing Jacq commented on her birthday card is "Wow, even Winston wrote on it". This shows how precious Winston is in our OG. Sure, that's something to look forward to two weeks later.
ZZZ... Today I must also comment that Chemistry lecture test is a killer test. They cheated me of my time... 3 marks MCQ took 20 min for me, and so the 22 mark structured I had to rush in 20 min. The result? I didn't do qns worth 14 marks. Next time I shall learn to skip the MCQ (which is perceived to be the easiest section but is indeed the hardest), and go do qns worth more marks.. What a harsh way to learn the lesson about time management.
Yea and anyway, look forward to the next few weeks:)

*muacks
Raawrrr I LOVE YOU L'AMBADA! Thank you for making my birthday yesterday a very special and memorable one :) Thanks for trying so hard to surprise me xD You guys are so cute esp when i caught yall chionging the card HAHAHAH and thank you for putting so much thought into your gifts :)
And most of all, thank you for waiting for me to finish training >___< It might not mean anything to you but let me tell you that it means the world to me. Esp when training is so long and tedious, i can't tell you how warm and fuzzy it feels inside knowing that my og's waiting for me xD Hahaha but don't do it too often kaes, else it'll lose its special-ness!
AaaahHHH L'AMBADA!! You guys are the best ogmates i could ever wish for :) I don't know if we'll always be that always-go-out-for-dinner og, but i'm sure we'll always be one big LAMEBADA FAMILYYYY <333

staying together
hello
thought i might as well say a bit (: since i've been through j1!
my previous og was very very high during orientation and the first few weeks. but it was only very few of us...
and im so so so amazed by you guys lah the energy the spirit the amount of times you all hang out in school and go out (:
i cant keep up haha im growing old
anyway... yea i guess term 2 commitments are going to start piling in...
i always find it kind of strange, but some OGs who don't actually go out a lot actually stay together longer... cos it takes much less just turning up every morning and talking to a few people than to go out all the time? thats how more pple stay together! thats why its super amazing why so many pple still go for dinners everyday (:
but yea what i meant was as long as you all don't stop seeing each other, as long as you all at least meet up once in a while, in the mornings everyday, or dinner once in a while, we will last! we will survive! and i don't ever think the bonds have been formed are gonna break just like that... i think lambada's much much stronger than we think we are (:
as long as everyone makes some effort to keep up with each other and not get swallowed by your commitments, WE WILL BE FINE (: don't be like me lah the last few weeks have been quite quicksand-ish lol but im okay! i will defeat everything hahaha
mm i wish i was more free man to hang out with you all... will really miss you all if i don't see you... but i'm so so thankful for such a spontaneous and understanding OG (: very glad that all of you are enjoying it and feel for l'ambada so much more than anything else... like i said... amazing (: its quite a good feeling isnt it

Happy cny everyone! Haha goshhh og stayover was so wonderful! All you guys who couldn't join us, you ought to be feeling terrible right now xP hahaha. oh yes and marcsay is a FANTASTIC HOST. totally put me to shame lah -.- tsk marcsay why you go and spoil the market for indonesian maids!
Hahaness anyway i think the most nicest part of last night was the lao-ing of the yusheng! As usual it was done in a totally lamEbada style xD it just felt really good for everyone to be standing around the table lao-ing yusheng and yelling random stuff together :) Another memory to put inside your little treasure chest!
But really the highlight of my evening was sleeping in marcsay's bed! <333>___O Anyways it was nice and comfy. I was meaning to curl up on the couch but i felt alsleep like 10 secs after snuggling under the covers xD whoops! anyway i promise the next time we sleepover at marcsay's place me and sam will sleep elsewhere so we can let the rightful people sleep on the bed xD

Haha anyway here's a pic of the people who tried to watch love actually, actually xP But ended up like that lah. Except for Zhuangyi, winner xD We were tempted to put toothpaste on their faces but we were feeling too nice.
Rawr so that's about it for my report of og stayover! :) Hope we get to do another one soon. How about o2? xD Let's stay over in Changi Airport! They have firstclass facilities okay xD
Finally, in the words of my history lecturer, here's wishing all of you guys an "abundance of love" and "prosperity in your studies"! Rawk on, l'amebada xD
V DAY :)
ok i realised this is a bit late but nvm! :D
anyway i see no one blogged about v day! hahahaha so let me do the honours of narrating the very exciting day hehe
14th feb - it was an ever so typical bright and sunny day at the l'ambada lodge. as usual, the coolest og ever sat at its usual sunny spot so as to benefit the hardworking peeps who were doing their work (or uh, rushing to finish what they had to hand in that day). however, things were a little diff that morning because.... LOVE WAS IN THE AIRRRRRRRRR ... IT WAS VALENTINE'S DAYYYY!
hahaha anyway so skip skip skip girls prepared a surprise for the guys guys did the same thing for the girls! check out the guys and their v.c. (very cool) badges:
(it says caution hot lambada guy but i thought i was supposed to be abt us girls being hot. HMM hahahahaha nvm.)
oh and sorry :( i don't have pics of the girls with the presents the guys gave but well we were ALL impressed with the very nice rose and the card each girl got! :)
ok and now for the HIGHLIGHT of the morning... I KNOW RIGHT NOW THE PEEPS WHO WEREN'T THERE MUST BE WONDERING... HUH IF THIS AIN'T THE HIGHLIGHT THEN WHAT IS ?!
hahahaha okok check this out:
(re-enactment of the scene that morning before the girls and guys exchanged their presents.
disclaimer: i can't remember the exact details that day so i might be wrong here and there)
location: lambada lodge at area above the pac
time: somewhere around 7:21:23 am HAHA
*enter youkai carrying a very large red flat present*
youkai *bouncing in excitedly*: marc see! you have a present!
marc see *in shock and speechless*
youkai: YES some mg girl passed it to me on my way up! do you know any mg girl marc see!
marc see: huh no what mg girl?
youkai passes present to marc see.
(the note on the present reads:
blahblahblah
blahblahblah
signed,
your secret admirer) :D :D
marc see *looking at it*: i bet it's some wrapped cardboard.
youkai: open marc see open!
rest of lambada joins in chorus: YEAH OPEN MARC SEE OPEN!
marc see: (mumbles something along the line of not wanting to open it now)
youkai: no marc see open now!
marc see doesn't reply.
seeing that marc see is not planning to make any move youkai very excitedly sits down and helps himself to the present.
the opening of the present took ten years cos it was very well-wrapped (right) and marc see wanted to keep the wrapper with the note in good condition so the wrapping paper couldn't be ripped off.
when the present was finally opened... (a calendar with marc see's fave singer pics)
youkai *gasps*: MARC SEE HOW DOES HE KNOW YOUR FAVOURITE SINGER!
rest of lambada gasps in the background: *GASP GASP GASP GASP GASP* (some nearly hyperventilating cos of the emphasized gasps)
AND THEN....
i can't rem what happened. hahahahahaha! ay but the main gist was just that marc see got a present from his secret admirer!! :D
OOH hahahahaha.
and that was lambada's very first and highly entertaining v day together :)
and here's a last pic of marc see acting all emo cos of his secret admirer troubles...
okie i'm done here let's all go to the playground and play on the seesaw hahahahaha! rights have a happy cny everyone! just got my first two angpaos yay
SEE YA ALL ON WED :)
(and my right eyelid is still twitching! :( )
Stayover!!
Woohoo. That was such a coolio night. It was fun, exciting, and totally awesome. White chicks was quite a funny movie, though it may be a bit sick at some parts of the show (especially since it's the uncut version).
Yay and the lao Yusheng was fun. It was especially funny when Zhuang Yi's Pocky stick (we ran out of chopsticks so used pocky instead) broke halfway and he was like using his hands to lao yu sheng. Haha..
And Sam and Zhen Yang thanks for taking photos. And thanks to those who brought cameras. Hehe, and there should be more photos I suppose. Pls upload them so that we can all enjoy the pics :)
And most importantly, thank you Marc for hosting all of us. Your house was real nice, esp. the bed (though I did not get to sleep on it). We may want to go to your house again, if you don't mind:)
And regarding Lydia's point about OG not lasting after second term, well, as the workload gets larger, we may not want to go out for that many dinners (e.g. 5 days a week). So, can perhaps have once a week thing. Shall see how as it comes. Meanwhile, just come for OG stuff as much as possible.
Well, I haven't slept since the stayover, so it's quite tiring for me. But still got the shou ye thing today.. haha. shall sleep only after 12 midnight.
Yay and the lao Yusheng was fun. It was especially funny when Zhuang Yi's Pocky stick (we ran out of chopsticks so used pocky instead) broke halfway and he was like using his hands to lao yu sheng. Haha..
And Sam and Zhen Yang thanks for taking photos. And thanks to those who brought cameras. Hehe, and there should be more photos I suppose. Pls upload them so that we can all enjoy the pics :)

HEY PEOPLE! hahaha hey the sleepover at marcsee's was SUPER DUPER UPER GAZOOPER FUN! marcsee! you're the best host ever ever ever! serious. :) yup haha and now i feel kinda sad that it was over so fast :( oh my tian i realised that we didn't eat the cheesecake! hahahaha. oh well. oh yeah and thanks marcsee for paying for the food first we'll pay you back on wed! oh and for the help with the cockroach too :) oh but you're the first guy i've seen who's also scared of a cockroach :P hmm the whole thing was tiring but i enjoyed myself loads! :) hoho slept from 1 to 6 though. OOH anyway i REALISE THAT THIS CALLS FOR ANOTHER I-LOVE-OUR-OG POST. lol. YES I LOVE LAMBADA SO MUCH :) seriously! i dunno about the rest of you guys but i really really have lotsa fun hanging out with you guys, much more than with my class cos i feel closer and more bonded to you all and the friendships we have feel well, real-er. sometimes i feel things get a little superficial with my class but then again it might be just me. oh well. and now i feel so sad cos i know and can feel that our og won't be that close anymore what with the added pressures of schwork and ccas when everything starts proper in term 2. sigh. and then when we do finally drift apart guess what, we'll all get used to it and that's when it's the worse cos even though we know that things aren't what they used to be, we don't really care about it either. :-( oh no. so what happens when it all ends?
okok cny cny not sad not sad RIGHT i shall upload the photos soon!
okok cny cny not sad not sad RIGHT i shall upload the photos soon!
WHEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Yae just finished my reunion dinner today.... But of course that's not what I'm going to blog about LOL.... YESTERDAY'S SLEEPOVER WAS SOME BOMB!!! IT WAS THE COOLEST, FUNNEST AND BESTEST STAYOVER ANY OG COULD EVER HAVE!
And a big THANKEW to Marc for letting us mess up his house and being such a cool host.... Don't think could find a better host anywhere!!! He was like running around the house like a maid looking for this, looking for that, trying to make all of us more comfortable.... Awww so sweet.... Haha... And the best part was he was WILLing to do it for us!!!
Marc: Yae you're like the bestest host in all the bestest hosts there ever was! We all LUFF you!!!! Thanks for running around and bringing us whatever we needed the moment we said it! I think you owned ALL the INDONESIAN maids in Singapore!!! Whoo hoo! Promoted to GM status with warranty/effectiveness period of 1 month! YAE!
Anyway, to those who didn't make it for the sleepover.... TOO BAD!!! It was so so so so so so super fun!!!! Actually come to think of it, we didn't really do much the whole time...
Events that took place:
1) Lao Yusheng
2) Mahjong
3) Karaoke
4) Bridge
5) Screening of UNCENSORED, UNCUT "WHITE CHICKS"!!!!!!
6) Screening of the half of Disney Animation "Hercules"
7) Screening of the romantic movie "Love Actually"
8) Screening of a fast-forwarded version of "HUO YUAN JIA"!
9) Eating, eating and MORE EATING (cough cough YOUKAI! cough cough)
10) Sleeping (for those not manly enough to stay up the whole night/day, which is like, EVERYONE!)
(eh... did anyone watch mean girls?? I can't remember cos i fell like, asleep... oops)
yeah... so basically that's what we all did.... hmm.... i think the funnest part of the whole stayover was either the yusheng lao-ing or the screening of the movie "white chicks"..... Personally, with a strictly innocent and completely angelic point of view, I think everyone enjoyed the movie because of it's visually attractive graphics and emotional/physical stimulating imagery... (WAHAHAHA)
OK... now that we've all established my innocence (hee hee), the stayover was nothing but good clean fun (except the part when SOMEONE used his hands to lao the yusheng....)!!
hmm.... Actually i wasn't intending to sleep at all but i was feeling very cold (Marc's house so COLD! not even the presence of all the hot lambada ppl could keep me warm!!!) so.... jacq and I like hid under the blanket to keep warm.... then... drift away into unconsciousness....
Anyway here are some pictures taken with Tanvi's cam!!! Haha... Not a lot because the battery died halfway.... not even past the 12mn mark! Aww......
And some of the pictures are repeated because SOMEONE (ahem ahem LYDIA! ahem ahem) was complaining that I didn't warn her before taking a picture of her so.... yeah... but never mind what does not appeal to SOME may be beautiful to another [particular] person... (heh heh)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
^^ Youkai in his secret corner.....
^^ The Mahjong Table!!!
^^ Lydia (candid) and Chongmin
^^ Lydia and Chongmin (with Pre-pic WARNING)
^^ Pre-Yusheng lao-ing
^^ The (almost) finished product!!! So colorful!!!!
^^ Preparing to lao the yusheng!
ok sam is very very high, as yall can probably tell.... it's the lack of sleep!!! and tonight, being the chinese new year eve night, the longer we stay awake tonight is the longer our parents' lives will be... SO... see yall online tonight!!! YiPPEE!!!
luff,
SamMyBoI
aftermath
haha...that was SOME sleepover man. Marc, you are seriously the perfect host. thanks a lot dude. i'm currently recovering from the lack of sleep. should be alright la. slept from 1.30pm to 4pm just now. how was the shopping girrrls? anyway, i've got the pics but it takes a while to upload. will do it when i'm freer and less in a rush and less tired. some are up on my blog liao. u can go see if u want. till then, take care, drink a lot of water, sleep when u can and try to survive the splurge of the next few days. hahaz...enjjooyyyy

HELLO LAMBADA.
Wheeeeeeee back from the stayover at marcsee's house!
his house was sooo nice and airconditioned and stuff but you know what was the most impressive part? it was MARC himself! here's a HUGE THANK YOU to marc for being such a gracious, gentlemanly and hospitable host and i felt a bit bad seeing him run around doing all the chores and serving everybody food while we all sat around and enjoyed yourselves! well i just want to say that we really appreciate your efforts trying to make everybody feel at home =D and he also paid for all the food that we ate!!! lambada must rmb to pay him back okay! the food itself cost like 60+ bucks! marc is such a nice and thoughtful host and we all had a ROCKING GREAT TIME at his houseeeee!! can't wait for another stayover (that is, if marc isn't scared off by how we messed up his whole place =X)
i love the polar bear bed but i didn't get a chance to sleep on it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! anyway i didn't bring my camera so i don't have any pictures. but the girls took a lot of photos so please post them up! haha the funniest part was when we were like, lao-ing the yusheng! there weren't enough pairs of chopsticks so zhuangyi had to make do with pocky sticks. and when the pocky sticks broke he proceeded unabashedly to use his hands instead!!! i wonder if that is the cause of lydia's stomachache =P we didn't know all the auspicious words to say before eating, so lydia suggested that we just say " YAYYYY" after adding each ingredient HAHA!
and i had suchhhhhh a fun time listening to all the sad oldies! oh mahjong was fun too! and the movies.......hehehe WHITE CHICKS! legendary. so funnnnnny and so sick !! i was intending on staying up all night but i couldn't resist the allure of the comfortable couch.. not my fault that his house is so cosy!
but a shame i had to leave earlier this morning for flag day so i couldn't join you all for breakfast and stuff.
and STAYOVERS ARE SO MUCH FUN
once again thankew marc!! NICEST and COOLEST host ok!!!!!
and HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY! Here's to a prosperous year ahead of us and manymanymany A grades in all your tests! and i hope everybody gets big angpows too !

my highness speaks!
dear subjects (who have been subjected to my highness' highness),
HAPPY VALENTINES DAYYY.
I believe some thanks are in order :) Firstly, thanks to our HOT L'AMBADA GUYS who got all the girls flowers/chocolates and HANDMADE CARDS! <333 You guys have proven yourselves true gentlemen xP One notch up the gentlemanliness-index for all of you! *clapclapclap*
Okay and now for an update of vday scandals! xP
Scandal #1:
Yuheng and the SECRET ADMIRER
Walk to the canteen, stop at the red heart. Look down and you will find...
"Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Yuheng you're mine,
I'd die for you."
Another one of yuheng's many(manymany) fangirls? Aha, mysterymystery!
Scandal #2:
Marcsay and the MYSERIOUS MGS GIRL
On this day, in the not-so-wee hours of the morning, a bright red package with a <3 note attached found its way to our fellow lambadean! :o It appears that this SECRET ADMIRER even knows our dear marcsay's taste in music! o.O Interesting... Who could it be!
Scandal #3:
Shaun and XXX (name concealed for safety reasons)
Our dear ogl was unable to join us today for our lonely-hearts dinner as he had *something else on* Now now, no need to be so hushhush about it shaun xP We know what- or who, rather- is occupying you! Unfortunately we are obliged to keep *her* identity confidential as it would put her in danger of being killed and blood-drinked xP It is a very REAL threat and we recognise the need for some shhhshhh here, so for more information please approach our gossip-expert lydia.
haha next year we shall dig up all our feb14th07 posts and laugh at them xD till then, happy vday and may you have a lovely post-vday too! :)

mushy poem
hi l'amebadeans.
this is to prove jacq. wrong. I shall now put my lit/1337 skills to good use. Instead of this:
Roses are red,
Violets are blue....
Heck no they aren't!
You big fat gundo!!
I have come up with a mushy one as requested by jacq:
Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
But you are lovelier,
My heart I give to you.

From Shaun:
guess whatt
my blogger account doesnt let me sign in lol sigh
yes yes wanted to congratulate everyone on a job well done for olevels (:
so glad for all of you... hope that everyone can stayyy or we'll be very
very sad...
mm reading the blog yesterday and everyones blog made me realise how much
ive missed out not hanging out with you guys! and i guess i really really
wanna hang out with you all more (:
i havent been the best ogl recently haha... must admit i'm a bit tired...
but yes like many of us have said... lambada the best og everrr!
<3
shaun
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yea, firstly I would like to say that shaun it's ok that you don't join us for most of the outings for og, as long as your heart is still with us, and you'll join us whenever possible!
And yup this brings me to dinner tomorrow. Try to come, unless you have something on.
And yup there is the Arts Alive thing that is 21 feb, Wednesday, 1pm. We can all go take part, help the house to gain a few participation pts. Anyway, it's relatively easy, just making a sketch based on a theme. (But sad to say my drawing is P2 standard). Anyway can still go and have fun. K talk about this some other time.
Ha, and finally, about blogger. Firstly, shaun, check if you are using the new blogger to sign in (i.e. the google account one). If you still cannot sign in, try creating a new google mail account and use that to sign in. Yup, hope you can join the blog as soon as possible.
P.S.:
wonder who wrote that heart about yuheng, at least we know he has admirers :) and did you see the stuff about shaun too? lol i wonder what happened to the vetting of messages..

math woes
Hello! i am tempted to launch into another i-love-lambada-so-much-and-im-so-proud-of-you-guys post, but let's save that for a rainy day :)
I was feeling bored studying math. probably you are too. so if you're mugging into the wee hours of the night and feel as bored as me, here's some pokies at mathematicians to keep you awake and giggling xP
the smart mathematician.
One day a farmer called up an engineer, a physicist, and a mathematician and asked them to fence of the largest possible area with the least amount of fence. The engineer made the fence in a circle and proclaimed that he had the most efficient design. The physicist made a long, straight line and proclaimed "We can assume the length is infinite..." and pointed out that fencing off half of the Earth was certainly a more efficient way to do it. The mathematician just laughed at them. He built a tiny fence around himself and said "I declare myself to be on the outside."
the logical mathematician
An engineer, a physicist and a mathematician are staying in a hotel. The engineer wakes up and smells smoke. He goes out into the hallway and sees a fire, so he fills a trash can from his room with water and douses the fire. He goes back to bed. Later, the physicist wakes up and smells smoke. He opens his door and sees a fire in the hallway. He walks down the hall to a fire hose and after calculating the flame velocity, distance, water pressure, trajectory, etc. extinguishes the fire with the minimum amount of water and energy needed. Later, the mathematician wakes up and smells smoke. He goes to the hall, sees the fire and then the fire hose. He thinks for a moment and then exclaims, "Ah, a solution exists!" and then goes back to bed.
why we study math
The physicist and the engineer are in a hot-air balloon. Soon, they find themselves lost in a canyon somewhere. They yell out for help: "Helllloooooo! Where are we?" 15 minutes later, they hear an echoing voice: "Helllloooooo! You're in a hot-air balloon!!" The physicist says, "That must have been a mathematician." The engineer asks, "Why do you say that?" The physicist replied: "The answer was absolutely correct, and it was utterly useless."
cheers and good luck for math test tomorrow! :)

the evolution of math teaching:
- 1960s: A peasant sells a bag of potatoes for $10. His costs amount to 4/5 of his selling price. What is his profit?
- 1970s: A farmer sells a bag of potatoes for $10. His costs amount to 4/5 of his selling price, that is, $8. What is his profit?
- 1970s (new math): A farmer exchanges a set P of potatoes with set M of money. The cardinality of the set M is equal to 10, and each element of M is worth $1. Draw ten big dots representing the elements of M. The set C of production costs is composed of two big dots less than the set M. Represent C as a subset of M and give the answer to the question: What is the cardinality of the set of profits?
- 1980s: A farmer sells a bag of potatoes for $10. His production costs are $8, and his profit is $2. Underline the word "potatoes" and discuss with your classmates.
- 1990s: A farmer sells a bag of potatoes for $10. His or her production costs are 0.80 of his or her revenue. On your calculator, graph revenue vs. costs. Run the POTATO program to determine the profit. Discuss the result with students in your group. Write a brief essay that analyzes this example in the real world of economics.
cheers and good luck for math test tomorrow! :)

HI CONGRATS I HEARD AUGUSTINE GOT 1o A1s the brilliant ass :D YAY now i know who to go to to ask my qns next time :) oh and eepsters sorry i couldn't be there yesterday to celebrate with you guys! first thing was i went to visit my father in hospital second thing my mum wasn't too happy abt it so i decided not to go cos what if it jinxes my chances for the stayover next week right! anyway I WAS THERE WITH YOU GUYS IN SPIRIT so it doesn't really matter does it ! hoho anyway i feel so happy for all you o level peeps yay you all won't be leaving us right! WUNNERFUL. now i hope no one new comes in to our og hehe i know i'm mean but it really feels weird to have some new addition to our already verynicelybonded og ! yaysters. okie SEE YA ALL ON MONDAY :)
O2
For the first O it refers to O lvls.
Hopefully everyone can make it back to RJ, then we can have our OG back together. I feel that our OG really is good at stuyding, especially when we have our nation's rare 10 A1 scorer in our OG. Kudos to everyone for doing so well in O lvls. And yea the cake that was treated by Augustine, Zhen Yang, Tan Vi, You Jia and Zhang Ying for getting good results was nice. Thanks a lot:)
Yea, then the second one right, it of course means Orientation 2. (or O2)
I was thinking, after discussing with Zhen Yang, that we should have a chalet. I mean, it's 2 days, isn't it. Just nice for a chalet. Can still go back to school in the morning and then go chalet for the rest of the time. But this is only if there's no activity planned out for O2 for the rest of the day. Check with Shaun first:)
Anyway, don't forget the stayover on 16-17 Feb. Cya there!

*hugggles
L'ambada group huggg! I love you guys >_<
There's never been an og like this one.
My snr said "your og is the best og ive ever seen!" to me this afternoon. And she also said "ive never seen such a mad og!"Gosh. We're all so mad. Who ever heard of og breakfast, lunch, dinner, supper, PT (lol), kbox, stayover, studysession etcetcetc.
And who ever heard of an og that stayed around till the sky grows dark just to wait for just that one person. Not just once or twice but anytime, everytime. 'Cos we're all special and important!
Having just one more lambadean around is definitely worth the wait :)
Rawr don' t worry 'kai, even if you can't make it, we understand! and waiting around isnt so bad anyway 'cos we can oogle at ruggers anyway. and who's that guy with the muscles always running around eh so imba one xD
To all of you,
I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of greens and blues
Just to be the next to be with you
Ohmygosh im so blessed to be a lambadean, 'cos of all you wonderful fellow lambadeans!
jacq <3 you all :) rawk on, peeps!

L'ambada Spirit
Sam, your post was real touching, you should take lit already if you can write such emo. poems.
I strongly believe that no one ought to be left out in L'ambada. It's ok if you can't come all the time for dinner, meeting (or any random OG stuff), as long as your heart is still with us.
We still have much more to do, and even if we may be from different classes, different CCAs, I feel that we all will have a great time together. It's the same for you too, I suppose.
Long Live L'ambada!!! (LLL)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh, and since my title is the L'ambada Spirit, I shall write the L'ambada cheer here, in case you all have forgotten :)
Say Lam! Lam
Say Ba! Ba
Say Da! Da
What's that? Lambada!
[Tribal Lambada]
he. he. he. he. he. he. he. he....... (cut)
Who's the best?! Lambada!
*clap *clap *clap *clap
Say Lam-lam-lam-ba-da (clap as you say)
Say Lam-lam-lam-ba-da
Say Lam-lam-lam-ba-da
*clap *clap *clap Lambada!!!
Well, I hope you all feel that strong L'ambada passion and spirit inside you.
LLL!

Why we wait
Hi all.
I don't care who all of you are. But I will love you all the same.
We may not all wear the same uniform. But I will love you all the same.
We may not all speak the same language. But I will love you all the same.
We may not all be able to be there physically every time we have a gathering. But I will love you all the same.
I don't care even if we've waited for hours, days, weeks all for nothing. At least we waited together.
And we were waiting not because we were obliged to. We waited because we WANTED to.
We chose what we did, even if we could have done otherwise.
We chose what we did, because we knew it was worth it.
It doesn't matter what happened in the end.
What really matters is the process.
Irresponsibility.
Being unreasonable.
Being Dao.
Being mean.
Please. We all are.
If you really are sorry, don't just sit there and feel remorseful.
Make us wait again for you to come back to us, and make us laugh at your jokes, your stories?
I still remember someone telling me that no one was insignificant.
I believed it.
We believe it.
And that's why we're here.
Look at the name list on the left of this blog. How many people are listed there? Do you even remember the names of some of the people listed there?
Why do we even bother putting their names there?
TO REMIND OURSELVES, THAT EVERYONE THERE IS PART OF THE OG, whether you like it or not.
As for apologies, I'm not accepting any. Until the day I have enough reason to find fault in your actions, deeds or words, you have done nothing wrong.
As as for why we wait, it's because in family, no one gets left behind.
we will continue to wait. no matter how long it takes. because each one of us matter.

OG PT...seriously.
haha i want to start by addressing youkai's post! dun worry la, lambada loves you (and your puns) very much too! and of course we won't take offence if you can't join us for dinner, because if we were really so petty then we wouldn't even be waiting for you in the first place =) don't be silly and worry too much yah? just hope you would tell more lame jokes =D i find it really amusing how you can tell jokes with such a straight face, never fails to crack everybody up!
WE LOVE YOU YOUKAI
and personally i find the idea of OG PT highly amusing. i love l'ambada and i don't think any other OG can ever come up with anything like that. simply superior. on the other hand we are certainly no slackers, too! we mug so often in the library. ah im so proud of our all-rounded OG!
i can't wait for second orientation with LAMBADA and JACQ AND CHONGMIN as our OGLs! but i don't think we'd get any new additions or anything, so yah.
i could go on, but i don't feel like leh. anyway. best of luck to everybody on friday!

Yo Lambada!!
Hi all,
Finally after some way of bypassing the blogger registration such that I can get registered without the page lagging, I am now able to post in the Lambada blog. How cool.
Nice love poem there Zhen Yang, lol, and that one letter by Wei Han is real funny. (regarding Lydia). Yea our OG is so on. This is a good sign and I hope it will stay on for the rest of the JC life (or even after that).
So CNY stayover is on 16th feb to 17th feb, go get permission from yr parents. Well, regarding the 10th feb outing, we'll discuss it another day..
Haha.. I like that pic at the top of the blog. Pro image editing.
So, yup, if I think of something interesting I'll post it here another time. That's all for now.
Cheers,
Chong Min

Love poem
I am attracted to you
Like an electron to a proton
Together we form an ionic bond
Though we are oppositely charged ions
I am drawn towards you
Our love is as unique as an orbital
For only two electrons can fill this space
As my love for you increases
My energy level rises
I am in the excited state
Increasing the tendency to undergo a reaction
I was an element
It took you to make me a compound
Falling in love is a chemical reaction
I have been transformed
When I first met you
There was a need for bonding
Which caused my love for you to grow
Ours is an exothermic love
Each giving off love, not just absorbing
Sometimes you do something especially nice
Which speeds up the chemical process
Like a catalyst in my increasing love for you
Yet i do not expect to know your molecular formula
You are too complex a person for that
When you are gone I am a noble gas
An inert substance
When i am without you
The world seems still
Awwwwwwwww how sweet =) everybody loves chemistry, right?
anyway. CANT WAIT FOR STAYOVER AT MARCSEE'S =D please all turn up, lambada!

Yo Yo fellow l'amebadians!
Sigh... Its already week 6... Can't believe time is passing by so quickly!
Wish everything could just stay as it was.
*switching to emo mode*
We have been meeting up almost every break that we have and eating out almost every night of the weel. We are bonded, that's a fact. And its a good thing. But soon we will be too busy to even meet up during our one hr breaks in school. And we will be so busy we won't even have time to eat, let alone go out all together for dinner or even for a simple cup of bubble tea.
This may not happen, of course. But life is full of what-ifs. We just have to remind ourselves to treasure every moment we have with each other now.
*switch back to happy mode*
LAST WEEK WAS THE FUNNEST WEEK EVER!!!!
Monday and Tuesday has sports talk then we (sports ppl, mostly) went out for dinner together... Monday we went to.... Food Junction? And Tuesday we went to.... where did we go (S11??)? Anyway, wed we went to Swensens and Thurs we went to KFC :D
Wish we could do this every week! But alas... we can't... because of time and financial constraints.. sigh.... Oh well... One OG dinner day per week is enough! Let's have a common OG dinner day!!!!!!! Coolness!

helllloo!! thanks loads jacq for this uber cool blog!! orange is so in :) my first time blogging in like the longest time since my poor blog died haha.. well i 'd just really like to say that L'AMBADA ROCKS!! as in almost all the other ogs are practically dying off and here we are keeping everything strong :) yay! and that's the way it will be for a long time to come :) we've spent soooo many good times together, it'd be a pity to stop all of it.. i even feel werid coming home early at times haha.. well i just wanted to say i'll miss all you peeps the most if a leave rj [which now that i come to think of it i don't want to] thanks loads for all the good times, the dinners, the super lame jokes, the singing at kbox and all the other funky stuff we've done together :) bye! see ya guys on monday!

LAMEBADA
we are the lamest og around, as exemplified by Dr. Lim Wei Han =P
anyway i am really glad that some of us are signing up for the ISLE (overseas CIP) and i really hope we all get selected for this! it would be a wonderfulwonderful chance for us to help other people and learn about their way of life while at the same time getting to know one another better! but where are we going ah, mongolia? sounds cool!
i think wei han's suggestion about an og outing on 2nd feb sounds cool! and we really shouldn't stop the OG dinners, they are so much fun! seriously this is the only time when we can do stupid stuff like wait 9 hours in school, because when the workload starts piling up and the common tests are looming large then we will be too busy mugging already =( and augustine has a point, this might be the last few days some of us are still a confirmed part of RJC! not to be pessimistic or anything but yeah, i think we should seize the day and have as much fun as humanely possible when we still can! =D
o level results are coming out on the 9th, best of luck for the mainstream kids (including myself)! good luck to the RP and DSA kids as well but you all don't really need that much luck =P too bad they wouldn't release the results on monday, mondays are so long and boring for me.
oh umm anyway i have an extra dramafest ticket on saturday!!! LAMBADEANS PLEASE GO!! quickly go and buy your tickets before they are all snapped up. better still you can go and hoard tickets (like what i'm doing) and maybe they would be able to fetch a higher price when all the tickets are sold out. supply and demand, putting theory to practice!
Hehehehehehe jacq posed for this.
seeya all soon!
anyway i am really glad that some of us are signing up for the ISLE (overseas CIP) and i really hope we all get selected for this! it would be a wonderfulwonderful chance for us to help other people and learn about their way of life while at the same time getting to know one another better! but where are we going ah, mongolia? sounds cool!
i think wei han's suggestion about an og outing on 2nd feb sounds cool! and we really shouldn't stop the OG dinners, they are so much fun! seriously this is the only time when we can do stupid stuff like wait 9 hours in school, because when the workload starts piling up and the common tests are looming large then we will be too busy mugging already =( and augustine has a point, this might be the last few days some of us are still a confirmed part of RJC! not to be pessimistic or anything but yeah, i think we should seize the day and have as much fun as humanely possible when we still can! =D

random quotes
"I was wondering who that guy in the photo with the muscles was, and on closer inspection I realised it was me." -youkai, after staring at a random l'ambada pic
"If you say no (to my request for an m&m) then you're mean. and if you're mean then i don't have to be polite with you!" -zhenyang, after popping sam's m&m before she could say anything.
"I've finished math tutorial one!" -sam, much to the horror of her fellow muggers who hadn't started on it yet
"Okay, all the guys wear white tshirt and boxers for o'nite tomorrow!" -chongmin. he actually meant boardshorts (or so we'd like to believe).
"the raffle programme produces the loser, thinker and pioneer. first the loser who thinks of this stupid idea, and then pioneers it." -weihan, at burger king
got anymore, anyone? xD

Letter of Apology
Dear viewers,
On behalf of my patient, Lydia Lau, I'd like to apologise for her unbecoming behaviour. Before one passes judgment on her and her ludicrous post, one must take into account that she suffers from a very serious psychological problem--Lydianus Lameashellus. This has plagued her since a very young age and we have been working hard to help her. Though the going is tough, we believe we are making good progress and hope to have her cured by the time her birthday comes, on the 2nd of March. As such, I seek your cooperation on this matter and please just ignore the previous post completely. I thank you on behalf of Lydia and her family for your kind understanding and good humour.

pretty person blogging! haha kidding.
HELLO. I just got a mega brainstorm. I PROPOSE WE HAVE AN OG BIRTHDAY COS EVERYTHING COOL HAS A BIRTHDAY! YAY. AND WHAT BETTER DAY TO CHOOSE THAN TO HAVE IT ON MARCH TWO TO SHOW OUR UNDYING SUPPORT FOR OUR HOUSE! MT MT! ( *gasps* : O Coincidentally March 2 is ALSO one of the coolest days of the year! WOW PEOPLE WE ARE IN LUCK!) COOLIO. Anyways since this is our first OG birthday (and possibly our last) I think we should start planning for it proper so that it'll be a grand event! I have some ideas - I'm thinking maybe we could call in a band or two, have our food catered, put up some posh decorations... something along those lines yeah? Remember, this might be the ONLY og birthday we will celebrate, so everyone please try to spend the weekend thinking of what we can do! Rights see you all on Monday :) over and out!

<333 l'ambada!
Haha I promised zhenyang i'd blog so HERE I'M BLOGGING. Hmm...
My gosh L'AMBADA RAWKS. I can't believe it's been 5 weeks into RJ life and we're still meeting up in the mornings, in the library, in the canteen, and in the depths of the night xD I'm so proud of us! >___< But it's quite scary too, how we're so ON xD
We must work hard and play hard! In that order, preferably xP Ohhh you know right, the other day I was in the canteen talking to my friend who was sitting with her ogmates, and then I was saying to her like, oh I'm going to the library to study with my ogmates. AND then all her ogmates went like, WAAAAAHHHHTTTT??!!! xD Haha so farnie. I'm glad we have so many hardworking, studyish people =) It's a goooood influence on me heeehee. I'll try not to laugh too much in the library to avoid disturbing people-who-get-disturbed-easily (ie zhenyang).
Rawr I like boasting to my class about this WUNNERFULL og of mine =x They're so impressed at how we only go out like, every night for dinner hahaha! And people who end lessons at like 11 are willing to wait all the way till 7-8pm to spend time with each other at the dinner table. Doesn't that thought give you a nice fuzzy feeling =) Oh well but seriously man, we must cut down on our nightly dinner outings. My eyebags are so big I think I can put my eyeballs into them!! Haha and shaun is gonna clamp down on us if we keep this up xD
Okay now take out your tissue 'cos I'm going to get emo >___<
I LOVE L'AMBADAAAAA! You guys rawk xD At first I thought we were like, quite dead and blah. But I've realised that just because everyone isn't on sugarhigh 24/7 doesn't mean we don't know how to have fun xD And fun isn't just about playing games and stuff. The most fun I've had from being in L'AMBADA is getting to know all you guys :) Because you guys are SOOO interesting and always sporting! We've done so many embarassing and retarded things, and proud of it still xD Muaaacks you guys are the best. I look forward to when we all go cook healthy food together xDDDD Sorry zhenyang, looks like we'd have to kill the greens.
HOLD ON A SEC.
Are you from L'amebada?
...
I'm SURE lah.
xD Nights to you all! Sorry no pics lah, but heck. Words are worth more! :)
note: milestone in jacq's history-- today on 1 feb 07, jacq got home later than shaun liu, probably for the first time in history ever. RAWR.

Wah! The Blog looks damn nice - kudos to JacQ (hiJacQ!) for designing it! Anyway, just dropping by to SEE the blog :(in the library coz com facilities in RIB suck - only can use for 2 hours a day and MUST use for two hours non-stop:(
Anyway O lvl results coming out next week so this may be the LAST period of time when I know i'm still part of RJ - just wanted to post a blog while carefreeness is still in my mind . . . .
Yesterday we celebrated Yihui"s birthday - so fun - hope we'll still be OGing throughout the year and doing stuff together - fire brigade - healthy food cooking - captain's ball - etc. Don't let L'ambada burn out to ashes and be scattered by the winds of change to different parts of RJC and God knows where!
