Investiture
written at Wednesday, February 25, 2009
hihi, after much discussion among the 4s, there will be finale for the investure. AFTER the sec 2,3 and 4 leaders have performed, there will be finale where all of us will be singing UNWRITTEN by Natasha Beddingfield. here is the lyrics:I am unwritten, can´t read my mind,
I´m undefined I´m just beginning, the
pen´s in my hand, ending unplanned
Staring at the blank page before you Open up the
dirty window Let the sun illuminate the words
that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance So close
you can almost taste it Release your inner
visions Feel the rain on your skin No one else
can feel it for you Only you can let it in No
one else, no one else Can speak the words on your
lips Drench yourself in words unspoken Live your
life with arms wide open Today is where your book
begins The rest is still unwritten
Oh, oh
I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are
outside the lines We´ve been conditioned to
not make mistakes, but I can´t live that way
Staring at the blank page before you Open up the
dirty window Let the sun illuminate the words
that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance So close
you can almost taste it Release your inner
visions Feel the rain on your skin No one else
can feel it for you Only you can let it in No
one else, no one else Can speak the words on your
lips Drench yourself in words unspoken Live your
life with arms wide open Today is where your book
begins
Feel the rain on your skin No one else can feel
it for you Only you can let it in No one else,
no one else Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken Live your life
with arms wide open Today is where your book
begins The rest is still unwritten
Staring at the blank page before you Open up the
dirty window Let the sun illuminate the words
that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance So close
you can almost taste it Release your inner
visions Feel the rain on your skin No one else
can feel it for you Only you can let it in No
one else, no one else Can speak the words on your

still unwritten The rest is still unwritten
Oh, yeah, yeah

also mrs chua said that the councillors had done a great job during COP:P
btw i have spoken to mdm normila about the recess duty, she said that try to get their name and summit to her. like maybe u guys keep a book, write down the name, class of the person.:P ( dun forget to write the date too). If u guys dunnoe their name, try to find out by going around the classes and ask their classmates..:P are you guys okay with that???
Thanks keric for the wonderful idea...but will talk about it with other excos and the teachers. If they okay with it, you and your team please be ready to do a proposal:P....

Issues...??
written at Tuesday, February 17, 2009
hihi, c'mon, let's give our dear president ( Benjamin ) a break. He has not been feeling well yet, we give him so much stress. I totally agree with Benjamin about the meaning of " STUDENT COUNCIL" like Benjamin had mentioned before during the SLC Orientation on the 18 of November 2008, ( if u guys still remember). Student Leaders is not uniformed group or school patrol troops who discipline their fellow students by giving physical punishments ( it will be given ONLY IF necessary). We are leaders who lead by being a role model. so, IF you guys join the SLC just because it looks cool to wear tie and badge, i agree with benjamin, we dont mind you quit now.
As for recess duty, Leon, Keric, and Ilin, thanks for voicing out the problems faced by you guys. For the issues of them not listening to you, i will talk to mdm normila tml and see what we can do. and for patroling, just ask them nicely to go to canteen but if recess is going to be over in abt 5 mins time, just let them stay in their respective classes. :P
I would really like to thank the other 2 presidents, ( wen zhen and Benjamin), the Excos, ( Darylene, Ian, Fazlindah, Adeline, Karen, Shamien) and lastly Alvin Phua for helping out in Total defence Day ushering. you guys had done a really great job and received fire extinguisher as a gift.:P keep up the good work. Also, Thank you so much Sec 3 Leaders for telling us our ( the sec 4s including the excos and presidents) mistakes. We are trying hard to change and hope you do see some improvements from us.
On Wed, 180209, our school is hosting an event, those who are involved, please be punctual and be in proper attire. Thank you so much for staying back on Tues 1708909 for the long rehearsal.
our investiture is coming,so hope the rehearsal for the performance is going really well. so please be prepared to be asked to stay back for meetings.
lastly, thanks for those people who has been constantly involve and helping out with school events. btw guys, all initiative projects are welcomed but please discuss it with the excos and presidents first before you involve the members ( also, a PROPER proposal is required).
there is nothing else, hehes see ya guys in school....all the best for your studies and takkecaire...:P

Hi guys,
I am not here to scold or lecture anyone, but i would like to give my views about it.
firstly,this is really very lame(but quite funny)You guys are all quarrelling over ENGLISH? are you kidding me? for your information, this is the SLC blog, not the ENGLISH DEPARTMENT BLOG. Yes i know that the posts here are not grammatically correct, and that is because we want to connect with you all using the local lingo, and since we are singaporeans, i don't find it unusual that we use shortcuts in our cyber language. Do give us leeway over this issue. After all, like what mrs Ang says, our batch's english is not good. maybe next time when your batch takes over, you can implement the "speak good english and type good english" initiative in our school and you spearhead by using perfect queen's english on this blog. isn't that better? hahaha
secondly, please do not use the tagbox to flame people here and there because this is really not the purpose for it. the purpose of this tagbox is to share messages and other misc. stuff, and if you guys want to comment about something very "bo liao", just go somewhere else and let go. You people are not the only jokers who read this blog. There are other Deyians who read this blog too, so mind your internet behaviour.
thirdly, since this question is raised, i want to set the definition clearly for the term "STUDENT LEADER". Student Leaders, or what we call SLs, to put it simply, are just leaders. We lead in terms of school discipline(attire, behaviour,etc),in bringing the school through different events(organising, ushering, boosting morale, etc), and most of all, doing the right thing at the worst times. Yes we are people who wear a tie and a badge everyday, but i hope you guys will understand that it is beyond that. If you think council is all about wearing a tie and a badge, i encourage you to quit and leave the council. You shouldn't even be a councillor at all.I know you friends have said things like: SLs all do "sai kang" and all this. And i don't deny that, but tell me, are there any leaders who never had to do dirty jobs? If you can't even stand this kind of duties, trust me, there isn't a place for you in the leadership sector in your career. Carry on being a slacker and get a low pay.
bottomline: we are student councillors because we want to see wrong being turned right in our school, and we want to do what is right.But relax guys, like i said, my purpose is not to pinpoint anyone. This post goes out to everyone. I wouldn't say who is right or wrong( why waste your time on this anyway -_-") but all i will say is to mind your tongue :) let's not see anything like this happen again.
Benjamin
HEY THERE!!

Letter from Humphrey
written at Tuesday, February 10, 2009
to the student council.
read it aloud to them man!
hey guys! miss me? i'm sort of guessing you guys said yes there, so... yeah. anyway, its great here where i am. the school is great. this level of competency within the studentbody and the staff is at a level that, no offense, can never be reached in deyi. in fact the student council here is made up of less than 10 people they mostly do behind the scene work. oh and one more thing, I HAVE NO UNIFORM! shirt and jeans to school! oh and what i'm about to say is going to be said in my irritating noisy loudest voice, for those of you who can imagine. I DO NOT HAVE TO CUT MY HAIR!! anyway, hope you guys are doing great.
ciao
