It's the time of the year again for me to prepare a special gift for my graduating pupils....
This year... I decided to make good use of the Selphy I bought to make a card for the Band Oneders. I brought my camera up to class one day and asked Weiying to go around to take pictures for every group. See... in Band One, the pupils gotta sit in groups and I actually made every group come up with a group name. So I decided to give them a card with their group name on it. With MGT's help in Corel, the cards are created. Urmmm... I added my very "juai" face on it. The motto for Band One is " To Distinction and Beyond..." because I hope that every one in Band One can score distinctions (A1 to be exact) for both A and E Math and I hope that they have learnt not only Math from me but other values in life. Hehehe... like very profound hor...
Check out the cards....
There are 50 pupils in Band One and I only have 2 days to write the cards!!!!
I only managed to finish writing all the cards the day I was supposed to give them the cards.... u know... I have not written so many words since I graduated from NUS!!! My hand was aching very badly that day!
My messy work desk
The last day of 4E Band 1 lesson was on 9 Oct 2007 and that was the day I bid farewell to my Band One... never will we ever have another lesson in the AVA room as a class again... so sad right...
Anyway let me introduce the groups to you.
Let's start from the group nearest to the door.
OLD GAY PHOENIX (Yong Xiang, Eu Hao, Alex & Xue Long)
No idea how this name came about... it's true there's an old person in the group and not sure if they are gay but who's the phoenix? I only know there's a Blood Dragon in this group!
Absent: Yong Xiang
This is the imfamous Blood Dragon aka Xue Long...
BOOTEST (Wei Hao, Jun Jie, Yain Kyaw & Benjamin)
BOOTEST is well-known for having 2 very prominent AMKsians -- Wei Hao and Jun Jie. They are the founders of the AMKsian Catching Club. This game has been played every recess since they were in Sec 1. The most ironic thing about these 2 members is... they are also members of the Early Bird Club. Maybe they came late for school because they were playing catching? Wahahaha....
ABC (Jolyn, Huan Qing, Xinyi, Pei Yi)
PEE BRAINS (Tse wei, Yong Tat, Ron, Khee Yau & Guan Yi)
Originally, this group only has 4 members. Guan Yi joined the group after realising the need to pick up his pace. To seek for help, he had to joined this group coz there are 4 GODs here... These 4 GODs are near PERFECT scorers. The group name PEE BRAINS definitely don;t suit them.
Gods at work
IMPRESSIVE (Zai You, Junwei, Tommy)
They have a stamp with a thumbs up and the word impressive. So far, they have not been consistently impressive but I'm sure they'll impress me when the time comes. Guan Yi left this group to join the 4 GODs.
SILVER SPARKS (Yi Jing, Yuan Ting, Cheryl Tan, Qingyun & Anna)
Absent: Yuan Ting
Hey... do your Math!!!
LOL (Randy, Loon Yew, Louis & Mingwei)
LOL -- Laugh Out Loud or it looks like 1O1... meaning they will surely score A1.
SLAP (Peiqi, Liwen, Sihui & Amanda)
The group name: Sihui, Liwen, Amanda, Peiqi
NAMELESS (Louisa, Jeslin, Joyce & Veronica)
They are called NAMELESS because they forgot their group name! The name is so insignificant that they forgot the name!
BROWN (Xin Yee, Lynette, Ke Xin & Chong Yi)
These 4 ladies are also the nesr PERFECT scorers. Wonder if the GODs or the GODDESSes are stronger? Hmmmm.....
Goddesses at work
PODT (Puay Leng, Weiying, Dawn and Surong)
The group name: Pehsurong, Onnweiying, Dawn, Tanpuayleng
This gal here... my most "challenging" pupil in Band 1... very very intelligent.
KOALA BEARS (Candhira, Jeremy, Weilun, Tai Huat & Jiarong)
Slacking (no wonder they r called Koala Bears!!!)
Pong (the person who made me lose an ice cream to Band 4's Guo Hao)
Check out the disintergrated collar... terrible!!!
