To Know Your Name

This is one of my favourite songs! i mean how its carries the song through and how it touches hearts of many!

Great people to be with!

The journey today to Pulau Semakau was fantastic! Really had fun especially the instructor...great experience to know about the landfill! For those who haven't go yet, look forward to it and have a nice time there.
Apart from the smell, the place is awesome, i meant everything is filled with ashes as landfill and soil is covered on top to grow grass for bird nesting and many activities. When you get the chance to go, GO! really!

Went there by a huge boat in which it rain going there but the breeze was amazing and also coming back was too cold but it didnt rain and the sun was up! Pretty tired now but need to mug for Physics and Chinese tests tomorow so yupp, mugging time!
Ended the trip with a game given a materials and to use them to prevent the egg from cracking when drop, signifying Singapore's economy.
Apart from that, today was exciting and yes! Had lots of fun with especially some great friends around like Thapana, Pritish, Dexter, Nathaniel and yes, there was a tau-pok upon NathGhui! Funny! He was struggling for life!

Well, that’s all for now and yeah…
God Bless,
Bertram Brandon

below are pictures tooken.

I see a near revival!

FAITH is CONFIDENCE! Remember that guys! (:

Had cell for the first time of the year because of the previous debates competitions and yeah, awesome time spent! (although it was short) GOD OF AGES! FALL IN THIS PLACE! Great songs....

WEll must say this week was tiring but the following week is going to be tough with almost 4 tests starting on monday to friday! I mean monday theres LITERATURE and SS and wednesday is PHYSICS! Friday is A. MATHS! but there are breaks like the field trip to Semakau the landfill, hope that i can get some photos if the place looks good to be on the camera! its a landfill so what do you think?!? (:

apart from that, school is getting intense as i saw the graduates got their results and i mean i felt so stressed out that i pushed myself to work hard for the Os. I mean its a killer but to strive and to gain reward at the end when everythings is over. I rather get it done with great grades and enjoy after that rather than get poor grades and suffer! Its like a life thing to accomplish well! not like PSLE man! But i trust GOD that he would provide my needs whenever i needed it and many times he has shown me many miracles where he guided me! Everything is in his purpose! Have FAITH to all my friends out there! Trust GOD whenever you need help! PRAY TO HIM AND HE WILL ANSWER YOU! however, keep a daily life with GOD friends, you cant just say i belive in him but you must be practical when you say it! Do your part to do it! Don't sit there on the chair saying, "he will help me!" but the end result is that he is trying to help you but what are you doing? NOTHING! YOu must do your part in revising too! yeah. So to all my friends out there, GOD loves you too! and he is alwasy there for you! For times in need or trouble, pray to him and follow his ways for he is the SAVIOR KING!


!REVIVAL!
Yours truly,
Bertram BRandon

today had studyskills workshop where we learnt note taking and stuff. Kinda used to these things already! and i must say that Nathaniel Ghui is really kinda weak. Pritish and me squeezed his hand and he could not take the pain so i guess he needs to work out more! Well Eduardo just sat there looking at him suffering under our "torture"!

After the workshop, played captain ball with the class till about 7.30pm where we were chased out of the school by a teacher (keeping it enclose). Tired but spritually alive!
Today students leader investigor was great! played for both Upp and Lower Sec and really the lower sec are more alive as they were singing loudly as compared to the Upper sec service but as in a hold it was great! well, everything went well except right now....it justs feels that everything is upside down i mean its like sadness i suppose!

Well, its time to see the faith!

Movies

The previous one was about Achmed and his JINGLE BOMBS attached with the lyrics. well now i want to share my top 4 best movies i find the most interesting and great shows ever. They are not in order but to me they are all the best!

1st up would be SAVING PRIVATE RYAN...(the trailer proves itself being a great show)



2nd up would be Band of Brothers series...



3rd up would be BLACK HAWK DOWN...



and 4th up is The Bourne Ultimatum



Well you can see that i like using the word WELL and also love movies which are like those action adn war! that is one chracteristic of me but unless there is good shows like PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS or PATCH ADAMS then i would watch! but action and adventures and war types suit me i presume and yeah those shows also were the ones that hit the awards especially Saving priv ryan and B.O.B so yeah try to watch them if you would going to!

hmmm..,tomorow its a new week and today Pst Kong preached a great sermon about FAITH! AMEN! FAITH IS CONFIDENCE! finally i could be with the cell but had to leave earlier because had to go off to meet pritish but of course i spent time with W363 and W331 too....

After that went to meet Pritish to help him buy his soccer boots. His boots are real nice man! O.o!!!
ended off the day having a nice chat with the nicest people among the whole world to me! One that bring joy to my life! LOL!

Thats all,
Bertram Brandon (if you still dun know why is my name like this, its my baptist name for the 180th time i'm telling you!)

Dashing through the sand
with a bomb strapped to my back.
I have a nasty plan
for Christmas in Iraq.
I got through checkpoint A,
but not through checkpoint B.
That's when I got shot in the ass
by the US Military...

[it's not funny!]

Oooh, jingle bombs, jingle bombs
Mine blew up you see.
Where are all the virgins
that Bin Laden promised me?
Oooh, jingle bombs, jingle bombs
U.S. soldiers shot me dead.
The only thing that I have left
is this towel up on my head.

I used to be a man,
but every time I cough,
thanks to Uncle Sam,
my nuts keep falling off.
My bombing days are done.
I need to find some work.
Perhaps it would be much safer
as a convenient store night clerk.

Oooh, jingle bombs, jingle bombs
I think I got screwed.
Don't laugh at me because I'm dead
or I'll kill you...

I KILL YOUOUOU!

Alright, today is kinda crap.
Lost all 3 debates firstly with Xin Min swing team, then 2nd debate withUWC and the 3rd one we had kinda comical speeches about LEGALISING EUTHANASIA with RI. I mean Priscilla and I was like trying to get our points and facts right then RI kept on POIing us and we too POIed them kinda alot but in the end, none of us got best speaker and won any debates so kinda sad after so much efforts! well its not about winning but about what we have collected from here and we can improve.

To those who were there for me, i thank you for supporting and also cheering me up too! (:
well, its a learning experience especially debating with UWC and RI so yeah, ended off with a dinner at Tiong Bahru!Somewhere i also dunno but Mr Brian Tan brought us there and it tasted i msut say OK! so after dinner we left off our own ways home! reflecting on todays sppeches and debates, well i must say yeah we screwed it well but once again we learnt something from here!


Thats all.....

Today was DEBATE!

Had a debate clinic organized by ACJC learnt the IDEA and ERASE for debate! well, had fun and learnt really alot!

Welll TJC debates is next week so here i am researching before i could organised my tem to gather and discuss! must say its alot of work but commitment is another thing in which we all must have in order to win and also learn! nothing much to say as right now i;m doinbg my research before monday so i guess thats all for now!

Hello everyone has been loooong time eh...

Well school started off boringly because of the talks but i guess it was a custom to have these every year on the first day of school. After all, its a school...
The days after that were kinda getting excite-er i must say or boring-er because its either the teachers or the lessons. For A.Maths, we have Mr Paul Tee (i suppose thats his surname as it pronounces)he is a nice guy and does well in teaching us with many practices and yes fun guy especially when you see his expressions unlike one boring one and you know who i am refering to. English and Geography has been a nightmare as WCH is teaching those 2 subjects and my class combines with 4C i mean what on earth is going wrong?!? Is it a path to fail or just pass or maybe unexpectedly score with high aces or distinction! Well, thats up for more to see from WCH as she teaches. I prefer the previous bands for Geog where i could talk to my band members like Marcus, Joshua, Joel and also the noise level would be kinda lower abit...oh well, time and things changes so go with the flow!

its been kinda a long week with the orientation night where we once gain had to show the CCAs. I mean Xing Ya was dragging her sec 1s to join rather then invite but really we got 22 invites to join Debate because of ARENA and MR Tan face in the short clip i made for the booth. GREAT! After that, Ms Hia and Mr Tan brought me and Ching Sheng to Holland V to this really Nice ambiance Italian restaurant. Practically they brought us there to mock at us because of the PRICES! oh well i had enough so i ate my share and Ms Hia sponsored make it a lend-sponsored Ching Sheng and he had to pay her back for his food so i guess he is going to pay back!I mean what kind of teachers man, trying to look down on us! Raaah....

Part from that, this week is OK so i guess i have to set my goals the SMART-ER way for this year 2008. Focus will bring them Success....no distractions. Expecting something great from GOD! AMEN!


I offer devotion,
Bertram Brandon

SCHOOL! Takes over all priority!

This week is going to be hectic i suppose...friday there is orientation and plannings for CCA booth, plus music extra lessons on thursday and meeting after that! Oh my, going to be long weekend plus all the new lessons starting man!


PLannings!

WEll its a new year and yes resolutions all jotted down! So i guess this year is going to be a challenging one with the Os especially and yeah revision is gonna paint my picture! preparation for school has started like my hair has been cut short with CS yesterday and yes i have possibly done my homework i suppose! Find out the difference between POSSIBLY and PROBABLY...kinda interesting i say! GO check them out!

Speaking of annoyance when people dont understand what your plan is and they jsut think you are playing around with them because of some excuses...i mean what on earth! basically its when the other side doesn't really get the point of yours till you must keep on saying till they get the point! oh man really tough to plan especially when they dun get the idea! i mean come on....you should know what i'm talking about! (this is not refering to anyone at all, its just some uncooperative people)

Enough of those stuff, countdown was great! i mean like 10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1...Happy 2008! or something like that!

GUess thats all for now!
