GISEYE EXCLUSIVE Ex-GIS Breakthrough Artist Act Report

2010-05-31T18:59:00.009+08:00

Ann Choong, sister of Ian Choong, both former students of GIS, is currently thrusting herself forward to break into the competitive ex-GIS music scene with her latest venture, the cryptically named ‘LilAnnieC’.

Smashing the past

GISEYE can report that precisely five months ago, in a bout of severe manic melancholy and smashing her previous project, the online faecal-name-inclined musings of ‘anniepoooooo.blogspot.com’, into the proverbial gutter, Ann Choong (known simply as ‘LilAnnieC’ to her close personal friends) bought a guitar, laptop and chair, and proceeded to sing songs written by other artists, record herself doing so, and upload them to popular video site, ‘youtube.com’.

While initially attempting to challenge the spoken word releases of Clement Chew’s famed GISEYE blogcasts, 'LilAnnieC' - the name being a clever play on the health supplement 'Vitamin C' - quickly found that her melodic drones were building a fan base somewhat in excess of that of Clements’.

Early days

Garnering an impressive 26 views in her first week, Ann Choong swiftly capitalised on the interest stirred in ex-GIS music and soon found herself tentatively treading the path to modest musical stardom formerly home to ex-GIS musical dignitaries Brian Tan, Leon Jala, Gregory Das, and Johan Abdul Rahman. Notwithstanding other ex-GIS eminents to have expressed an inclination towards music: Andy 'drums' Chan, Adzim 'either drums or guitar' Halim, Mohammad 'classical guitar' Aboljadayel, Jeon 'piano' Chae-Won, and the shortlived yet impactful vocal duo of Menzie 'Skeleton' Kee and Verun 'Chopra' Narula.

Indeed, Clement Chew, off the record, notes that Matthew Rust enjoys playing the guitar.

Inspired by such a bastion of ex-GIS musical talent, passing the critical 100 views mark over the next few months, Ann Choong faced a trilemma:

1. Thrust forward into the classically-inclined world admist eminents such as piano-dabbler Clement Chew and Malaysian Concert Violinist Jia Wii Hue.

2. Mount the pop ‘golden years’ pedestal formerly occupied by the now defunct soft rock cover band ‘Black Shirt Mondays’.

3. Venture into the uncertain world of singer-songwriter-dom currently home to such luminaries as ex-GIS U18 A team goal poacher ‘Ben Rynjah’.

In a revealing interview with GISEYE, Ann Choong humbly implied but did not confirm that she had chosen the latter route.

Response from fans

Response on the ground has been positive. Ex-GIS notable, Aarti Samtani, who co-starred (though did not sing) in a play during Sixth Form stated in a hard-hitting observation, ‘Ann genuinely surprised me with her talent and unique voice. I sincerely hope she puts herself out there more because there just isn't enough real talent in the music industry anymore.’

Chris Ho, who, along with being regularly chosen for a number of key leadership positions, personally setup the sound stage for a number of important assemblies throughout a glittering tenure at GIS, was unavailable for comment.

GIS luminary, spectacles wearer and author of 'The Narrow Road', Lee Weng Yew, commented, 'she sounds pretty good.'

The enigmatic Jeremy Goh, fellow spectacles wearer and veteran of the GIS lunch time football scene, enthused, 'she sounds amazing.'

Elsewhere, self-styled ‘Pro’, Henry Yen, lumped over a healthy chunk of constructive criticism: ‘She has a unique tone. Possibly due to lack of equipment, her voice is overly gentle. So improvement on equipment may cause improvement in singing.’ Off the record, Henry Yen informally retorted with yet more constructive commentary along the lines of, ‘she might consider an intro, like a 10sec intro.’

This cumulative praise has though not gone to the head of the level-headed Ann Choong. In an offhanded comment that will no doubt appeal to fans that prefer informal ‘street speak’, Ann Choong self-effacingly admitted that she is ‘still no where close to being a pro’ and announced that she ‘definitely need the groove in anything’.

Spanner in the works

The road to moderate musical stardom has not been easy for Ann Choong however. Damning criticism has been lashed out at the quality of her recording equipment. Further, several prominent ex-GIS music scene critics have noted that at key points in her recent releases she sounds like she is singing in a large room. In response, the University of the Arts London student ambiguously stated that she is, ‘generally shy when you don’t know me.’ Only by being pressed further did she admit that she is currently struggling with sound quality issues, curtly shouting, ‘no fancy mic, just the built in mic’.

A perhaps enraged Clement Chew, who reports indicate has taken Ann Choong's venture as a personal attack, is reportedly planning to release a flurry of self-composed piano movements to counter Ann Choong’s meteoric rise to fame. Malaysian Concert Violinist Jia Weii Hue is currently taking his exams and thus was unavailable for comment.

A bright future

Everyone else though has given their full backing to Ann Choong’s ambitions. Along with this, we here at GISEYE offer forth the totality of our support and burgeoning fan base for Ann Choong’s future endeavours.

In other news, Ann Choong recently won a competition by Warner Music Hong Kong.

DoE Gold Award Final Expedition to Mt. Kinabalu 2007

:: Day 2 ::

(Narrator: Matt Rust)

We woke up around 8am and settled down to some breakfast. Rumors were circulating that Blonde Squadron had appointed Thomas Maxwell as Blonde Leader, instead of the almighty Ho. After breakfast we set of for our reportedly 5km jungle trek.

The trek took its toll on some members of the party, and this was only a warm up for the real mountain. Not good signs. The race for the showers was on once we returned from the jungle trek, and as Chris Ho was part way through his recollection of the infamous straightflush incident of 99 the stampedes began. It became apparent that there was infact hot water available and this greatly calmed the panic attack of Blonde Leader, who did not wish to shower in cold water owing to the fact that it is cold.

That evening we successfully built a fire and cooked on it, just like real cave men. Chris Ho grudgingly conceded that it was infact a military standard fire and something we should all be proud of. High Mage YX who has for some reason not featured until now, concurred and gave the fire a GG rating. (The highest possible rating). THE END

DoE Gold Award Final Expedition to Mt. Kinabalu 2007

:: Day 1 - continued ::

(Narrator: Matt Rust)

Once the plane touched down we streaked across the hot tarmac of the Kota Kinabalu airport and passed through immigration. Chris Ho came under some close scrutiny from the immigration officer but was eventually allowed to enter (apparently he’s wanted in 3 Australian states for terrorist activities in relation to Aires Rock).

Upon leaving the airport we had to pile into standard issue taxis, much to the dismay of Ho who had been hoping for chinhooks. In groups of 3-4 we traveled the 1.5hr journey from airport to Kinabalu National Park. The sight of the magnificent Kinabalu National Park gate rising in the distance brought a tear to the eye of Chris Ho, as he recalled previous attempts to scale the mighty mountain that had sadly ended disastrously and culminating in the death of his entire Australian SAS team. Sergeant Major Christopher Ho had been attempting with his SAS team to climb the mountain in a record 1minutes 41seconds, unfortunately though as night descended a fierce rain storm soaked the slopes of the mountain in water and many of Chris Ho’s compatriots fell and died. Chris Ho was the only survivor and eventually returned to the base camp alone, 6years later, covered in shiiiiit.

Mt Kinabalu

Once we arrived at KNP (Kinabalu National Park) we made our way to the headquarters where we were assigned rooms at the Rock Hostel. Many members of the group agreed that “rock ‘n’ roll hostel” would be much cooler, with the exception of Kit who though that Stoner Hostel was infinitely cool. The reason for such a name became apparent as we walked into the living area, the walls were made of rocks and resembled vertical cobbled roads. Chris Ho immediately declared himself satisfied with the apparent military standard of the walls, and this was a relief for everyone. We had settled into our new surroundings by around 3pm, but were told that we had no scheduled activities and had free time till about 7-8pm when there would be a briefing. Chris Ho was outraged.

Well done Lee Weng Yew

Later, at the briefing, we were put into groups for the following day, as we would be walking through the treacherous and dangerous jungle. Chris Ho expressed his dismay that he had not been entrusted with the formation of such groups and vented his anger by registering a very high blood pressure. After the briefing was over, Chris Ho declared that it would be wise for everyone to go to bed early so that they would have plenty of energy for the following day. The innocent Thomas Maxwell began a rebellious party known only as Blonde Squadron who intended to resist Ho and his early bed time policies. Violent pillow fighting ensued. Consequently Chris Ho saw the error of his ways and joined Blonde Squadron in their quest for Blondeness and Blonde Rights/Equality.

DoE Gold Award Final Expedition to Mt. Kinabalu 2007

:: Day 1 ::

(Narrator: Matt Rust)

The DoE, Mt.Kinabalu experience started off like a typical school day. Waking up at 6am was something we thought we had escaped. Curtains were pulled back and bright light temporarily blinded us.

After being forced from our comfy beds and quickly taking the last opportunity for a civilized shower kit and I made the short journey to Chris Ho’s sacred abode laden with our huge heavy bags.

Upon arrival it became apparent that either Kit and I had under-packed, or that Ho himself had severely over-packed. This conclusion was drawn from the sheer enormity of Ho’s bag and the rumors that it had cost in the region of 15squillion Australian dollar. (We were later to be told by Ho himself that Australian dollars are infact BETTER than any other type of dollar or currency currently in circulation).

We traveled to the low-cost-carrier-airport in the comfort of the Ho-mobile, driven by the lovely Mrs. Ho, mother of the notorious Chris Ho. After arriving at said airport, we enjoyed a MacDonald’s breakfast and our last fast-food intake of the week. FREE REFILLS! Ah yes, and the obligatory burnt tongue which is inescapably suffered on each and every DoE trip was acquired before we’d even cooked a thing ourselves. Chris Ho however was simply not going to accept Ronald mcdonalds extortionate prices and bargained his way down 10cents on a mcflurry.

Once the bags had been checked in (Ho tucked his military grade bag away in some kind of protective all weather/all eventualities condom for extra protection) we headed for the gate, and as I’m sure the reader is familiar with the layout and workings of an airport, I’ll spare you the details...

2009-12-31T23:11:00.016+08:00

At the pervading risk of this article turning into the classic newsletter school trip report we will be breaking from convention in this, this meager publication's first sports editorial.

Precisely more than four weeks ago from today, along with another stalwart of the post-GIS blogging scene, Matthew Rust; this humble editor commenced on a flamboyantly metaphorical and physical journey through the perils of football team organisation, a gripping four hour coach trip, and ultimately what turned out to be an enjoyable day on Saturday the 31st of November at the Nottingham Malaysian Games 2009 Sports Competition & Family-Fun Day.

Team Details

Lustfully thrusting themselves forward upon the Ben Teo heartland of Nottingham, United Kingdom a team comprising: Nikesh ‘Safe Hands’ Chahal, Andy ‘Pec-heavy’ Chan, Ben ‘Suspect Match Practice’ Bradley, an up for it Matthew ‘Perry’ Rust, Menzie ‘Furious’ Kee, recent Singaporean import Vincent ‘Solskjear’ Au, and the ever-present team official and administrator Clement Chew Sdn Bhd - equivocally represented the remnants of the fabled Garden U18 Team of 06/07 (forth best team in South East Asia due only to some consistently gregarious refereeing malpractice throughout their tenure), in this the perennial competition in the British Universities Malaysian Sporting Calendar.

Possessing the rare qualities of negligible match practice in the months prior to the game and a carefully selected average of two hours of sleep the night before, preparations never looked better for what became known as Team Punggol War Clan, as this troop of drained yet talented individuals collectively descended at 0800h upon the Power League Nottingham stadia, adjacent to a resplendent British Tobacco Processing Plant and the best of Nottingham’s marshlands.

British American Tobacco, Nottingham University Campus

Team Punggol WAR Clan - (L-R) Solskjaer, Faye, Diego Forlan, (seated) Uriah Rennie, Sun Jihai, Ronaldo, David James

In a nod to the fabled efficiencies of Chris Ho, by 0835h all non-tournament logistics and administration had been taken care of by the assured Clement Chew. All necessary tournament information was then garnered by team organiser B Bradley at the pre-tournament briefing given in succinct Bahasa Melayu. It was learnt that a grand total of 64 teams were present.

Emergency Servis 24 Jam Response Team

Foundations in place, at 0900h Team Punggol War Clan commenced a quick and efficient warm-up using a ball generously temporarily procured from an unsuspecting nearby team.

Warm-up in progress

Preparations were dealt a blow however when the nearby team turned about face and aggressively commenced retrieval of their ball, cutting short Team Garden’s pre-game warm-up to an efficient 25 seconds.

Match 1: Birmingham ‘A’

Adrenaline surging through the veins, Team Garden lumbered through their first game against Notts Games 2008 Champions Birmingham University A. Presenting the lead to their furious opponents in the first half, a lethargic run from M Rust combined with a lazy Andy Chan back-heel were sufficient for Team Garden to finish the game at level pegging with the final score 1-1.

Prior to scoring

The game also concluded with Acting Defender B Bradley on the receiving end of a torrent of nationalistic abuse from a vertically-different member of the opposing team after this upstanding individual unfortunately managed to collide with a wooden buttress.

Match 2: Leicester ‘A’ (2-3)

Eventualities aside however, Team Garden entered their next game going through the motions against a ridiculous Leicester ‘A’ side.

Nevertheless whatever the final score line it could be safely said from a neutral perspective that Team Punggol War Clan stood firm in retaining the moral victory in this their penultimate game of the tournament.

Match 3: King’s College London ‘A’

Highlights here included: ‘Shut the fuck up, no one’s talking to you’, ‘Fuck you’, and ‘Go learn English and go home.’

Team Garden won 4-1.

Match 4: Team Total 90 dan satu mat salleh (2-2)

Highlights here included a last minute penalty awarded to the opposing team after keeper Nikesh Chahal opted to touch the ball with his feet.

This malicious act proved to be the final straw for the tournament organizers and thus ended Team Punggol War Clan’s brief and bittersweet campaign in the Notts Games of 2009.

Compliments to Adzim Halim for the gracious loan of his personal car as the official team transport vehicle for the day.

Other luminaries who featured on the day were:

Colin Say

Provided both moral and physical support to Imperial College London volleyball team.

Jonson Tan

Special Guest Article Edition #1

2009-09-22T20:01:00.005+08:00

With some quarters loudly proclaiming that we here at GISEYE have lost the common touch; others, that we are severely deficient in any ability to write in a manner befitting the general readership; and others still, that few people actually read the drivel that we aggressively spew forth - after weeks of deliberation and in a flagrant attempt to increase our readership, we now are happy to publish an article that is neither exclusive, hard-hitting, outwardly-controversial, nor written by GISEYE.

Instead, we are now proud to present a special guest edition of the tri-monthly GISEYE Report.

Here, writing exclusively for GISEYE by a writer going under the pseudonym of 'Aarti Samtani’ - as follows is a dark yet deeply moving missive that limbers through the ups and the downs of university life.

‘Looking at your future as a child raises a myriad of fears and concerns’

Looking at your future as a child raises a myriad of fears and concerns. The majority of university related issues that arise are centralised around a predictable concept… grades.

With hindsight I realised the short sightedness of my childhood dreams. I shouldn’t have wasted my prayers on getting into University. Rather, I have realised, good accommodation is an even greater rarity and far less likely to come by.

Chapter 1 – The Plywood Years

My first apartment was defined as a ‘three bedroom complex’ by which he meant 2 bedrooms and a room within a living room. The last unfortunate room was barricaded with flimsy plywood.

Oddly enough, the room within a living room was not the worse feature of the apartment. The apartment looked like a dungeon; with little windows and a drier without a timer function. It was challenging; I was never certain if my clothes were shrinking or if it was the rapid horizontal expansion on my behalf (the later turned out to be true). Alternate accommodation was therefore arranged after a long year of searching.

Chapter 2 - Denial Through The Medium Of Spring Rolls

Now one would think, ‘what are the chances of getting screwed over twice?’ In my case, VERY likely. The current place I stay in has a curfew of 10pm on weekdays and midnight on weekends. Unfortunately, it is an enforceable rule.

Just to complete the whole affair; I am not allowed to cook unless prior permission is obtained. How the heck did I get myself in this situation? Well, funny story really.

It all started when I was deep frying spring rolls. The oil heated up and started smoking which resulted in a smoky environment. The lady of the house freaked out and shook with anger (literally, she was vibrating with anger… rather scary really) and from that fateful day I haven’t been allowed to cook. Clearly, I haven’t had much luck in the accommodation department.

Chapter 3 – Sorrow

I could never understand why one would want to own a home. After a year and a half I have now changed my mind. For those out there who suffer the same fate; I sincerely sympathize. I genuinely wish you the best of luck as I sit at home on Friday at 12.30am at the peak of my youth.

- The writer is currently reading Medicine at the University of New South Wales. When not courting legal controversy through publishing prose such as above, the writer enjoys cooking, losing weight, and taking leading roles in school-wide drama performances.

School Website Hacked Exclusive

2009-09-16T21:48:00.015+08:00

Following a remarkable turn of events over the past week, we here at GISEYE, from the confines of the environs of inner-school internetreporting, are now able to reveal to you the ever-present undulating readership, recent reports of what is known in ‘hacker circles’ as a ‘cyber-attack’ upon the school website during the middle of last week.

As follows are exclusive to GISEYE, screenshots of the alleged attacks:

What am I looking at here

Utterly outrageous

After conducting extensive analysis and studying data available exclusively to GISEYE, we are now in the position to release the results of this study into the events that transpired leading up to this monumentally heinous crime - of what some say is of an utterly despicable yet daring nature that will no doubt serve to only strengthen the self-styled hard man yet softly spoken image this hacking perpetrator appears to be creating.

We have been led to believe that a group of hardcore individuals or indeed possibly one individual, slumbering on a chair in front of a computer screen in the confines of a dimly-lit perhaps subterranean basement room, whilst staring intently at the familiar screen in front of them, somehow managed to irregularly depress several keys on their well-worn keyboard and mouse in order to place the offending articles upon the school website - as one can see above.

Ben Bradley, Second Economics Correspondent, revealed that the opportunity cost of such an attack to the perpetrator could have been activities such as: doing homework, reading, and crucially in this health-conscious day and age - participating in many a physical recreation activity on a daily basis.

Firsthand Accounts

With regards to responses on the ground, rapid reporting by GISEYE is now able to reveal first-hand accounts from several individuals either connected to or formerly connected to the school, and by that link, the school website and thus, these distasteful online attacks.

In his first interview since being forced to relinquish his duties as Head Boy in June 2009, former Head Boy, Gregory Yap, in an initial state of blustering confusion stated, ‘how was it hacked?’ He then admitted exclusively to GISEYE the following revelation, ‘haha [sic] cool cool, this is new…nope,’ and with that categorically denying the possibility of the perpetrator being a disgruntled former teacher.

Meanwhile, close personal friend of Zi-wen Ho and also indeed of the popular yet humble Alang Aris, Ann Choong, sibling of Ian Choong, controversially revealed to GISEYE that she will personally be conducting her own investigations into this debacle, in a statement of, 'anyway.. im gonna go check it out.' As followed was a strong condemnation of the attacks with a provocative emotion-laden plea of, 'yeah thats it?...that is remarkably sad. probably cos someone hates him.' Ending with an informed cliffhanger of , '...the best way to get back at him is thru some technological hacking cos i suppose he must be pretty technologically savvy.'

Elsewhere, in a surprising statement, the enigmatic yet affable Henry Yen, Taiwanese graduate of Year 11 in 2005, and recently re-self-proclaimed, ‘the coolest guy you’ve met in ur life,’ in a cryptically ambiguous statement released by his advisors, controversially admitted, ‘it’s likely they were on the way to the school bus.’ As to whether the perpetrator was a disgruntled former teacher, Henry Yen (known to his close personal friends as 'Henry') declined to comment any further.

Finally, the omnipresent yet humble Woo YX, allegedly back from a recent business trip to PRC and currently preparing to dominate the selective KL nightlife scene, in a no doubt provocative aside quipped, ‘I think GIS IT Technicians are noobs XD,’ with a well-reasoned retort of ‘cause like they don’t know how to find the hacker and Dana’s brother have to like help them.’

Sick Filth

Finally, speculative speculation aside however, whilst recognising the immeasurable risks one would be exposed to in executing such a daring cyber-attack on the website of such a value for money educational institution - producer of such well-regarded individuals as the leadership-ordained Christopher J Ho, the fashionable Fariq Abdul Aziz, knowledge-bank Jason Ta-Liang Lim, the some say mysterious yet undoubtedly formidably pleasant amongst their peers Maevis Tan and Serena George, and possibly also Business Studies Supremo Thomas Maxwell - we here in our collective roles as second party observers opt to outwardly condone such cyber attacks such is their effect on limited school resources.

And finally, this hard-hitting exclusive just in from seasoned Co-Editor 2 Clement Chew:

"It is with our greatest regret and repugnance that we now feature this so-called facebook ‘group’ named the Moodle Hacker Appreciation Group. It appears that an eloquent individual going under the pseudonym of 'Affinity Male' has decided to start such a group glorifying the actions of this hacker. This, to the detriment of their homework completion abilities by nature of complete disregard in totality of their future academic achievements.

Already teeming with more than a hundred subscribers, this group appears to be a waste of time better spent perhaps revising for upcoming GCSE exams. No doubt 'Male' inherently feels a success for creating such a group, and while it is true that there are serious security concerns regarding the school website, there is no further need to add salt to the wounds."

And on that outrageous bombshell, this is GISEYE, signing off.

We hope that quality will improve in the future.

What Is This Sick Filth

2009-08-10T03:28:00.013+08:00

Health, Fitness, & Fashion

'Hearty advice'

In this exclusive report, we here at GISEYE can now reveal to you the discerning reader, a discovery that quite possibly could be one of the steals of the coming academic year, lightening the fiscal burden for many a discerning consumer.

As a result of the previous paragraph you may now consequently be asking yourself, what precisely is this gloriously depicted bargain? Or indeed where can one take advantage of such a proposition? The answers to these questions may be revealed as follows.

‘Recent Reports on the Ground’

Recent reports on the ground indicate that the school shop is now selling house PE shirts for the perhaps jaw-dropping prices of RM19, RM21, and RM24, for sizes 24 & 26, 28-34, and 36-48 respectively. Whilst this revelation may now coerce you to abandon all current pursuit and commence direct and immediate journey to the school shop in question in order to take advantage of such an opportunity. Against all known logic however, we here at GISEYE do implore you to read on further as we divulge what possibly could bring an even greater benefit to one's wellbeing.

Splendid

Indeed, closer scrutiny of the recently unveiled house PE shirt price list revealed almost exclusively to GISEYE; opens up the existence of the fact that smaller sizes of such shirts are in fact priced lower than their larger more generous equivalents.

Extensive analysis of such evidence here at GISEYE has revealed that this consequently deduces that in order to take advantage of the cheaper shirts, one must endeavour to be either: shorter in height, or slimmer in girth.

What steps therefore, must one take to make the most of this subliminally beneficial currency-orientated exchange? A close source who may or may not have medical qualifications revealed to GISEYE that the following steps could possibly be taken in order to qualify for the cheaper, smaller shirts:

Consuming less, rather than more, food.

Exercising 7 times a day.

Liposuction techniques.

Exerting oneself through the medium of weights because weights have been professed to stunt vertical growth.

And indeed (though quarters here arguably question this):

Hunching.

Unfortunately however, despite the exuberance at this pricing revelation at the GISEYE camp, not everyone appears to be welling in the veritable fountain of satisfaction that this deal regurgitates. Former well-respected student WOOYX, whom sources inform us has struggled in vain for the past half-decade to decrease in size, issued a statement in response: 'GG'.

Co-editor 2 Clement Chew countered this harsh statement however by enthusiastically overwhelmingly applauding the pricing strategies of the school book shop, quite possibly stating that it should encourage a whole generation of students to be both shorter, and slimmer, than ever before - though quite possibly to the detriment of the Basketball, Swimming, Athletics, Rugby, and Football teams.

'Golden Generation'

On the latter front however we must issue the statement that height on the whole did not appear to hold back what some call over the past fifty years, the ‘Golden Generation’ of school football, the Men’s U18 Football team of 06-07, winners of several regional tournaments and unfortunately due to possibly weather-orientated issues and refereeing malpractice, placed a disappointing fourth in the South-East Asian SEASAC football tournament, truly a calculated misrepresentation of their totalled abilities on the whole.

2nd Tallest Member T. Maxwell backtracking; Independent Playmaker M. Rust looking on; and Local Player V. Narula naturally entangled in the heat of the action

Returning to the matter at hand however. Elsewhere, sources have informed us that a man going under a pseudonym, that can coincidently also be translated directly from local dialect to mean ‘Excellent’, ‘Chun’, retracted his comment that such a clothing pricing bonanza was quite possibly of a homosexual nature. We later learned that this statement was actually wrongly attributed to ‘Chun’, and that in fact it has no place whatsoever in this exclusive report brought to you here first, by GISEYE.

'Undoubtedly popular amongst his peers' and avid GISEYE fan, Mr Lee Weng Yew, whom we have been informed by close sources, is in fact enjoying his summer holiday in Malaysia, was unfortunately unavailable for comment.

Meanwhile, Co-editor 1 Thomas Maxwell is taking a sabbatical, professed to be still washing his pants several times over after recently watching popular youth-band ‘Oasis’, live in London recently.

APPENDIX
¹ The term 'cibai' which is repeatedly spoken throughtout the debate depicts a lady's private parts.

² When the Ah Beng refers to a "foreman" sometime in the beginning of the debate, he is speaking derogatively as he assumes that the Bangala possesses a blue-collared job and therefore has a "foreman" who is in charge of his work schedule.

³ A "Hi-card" is the equivalent of a mobile service provider such as "Vodafone" or "O2" as observed in the UK.

⁴ "Sarang puteh" refers to the white headband that Sikhs wrap around their head to protect their hair. Another derogatory term.

⁵ "Punggol" is a housing estate in Singapore particularly renown for its selection of gangs for residential purposes.

⁶ "Block 107" was indeed a new block.

⁷ "Roti Prata" refers to a piece of dough which is thinly whipped over and over again until it forms a delicious item of taste. Primarily produced by the Indian ethnicity residing in Singapore.

GISEYE Report Summer 2008 – Stage 1

2008-07-27T22:12:00.005+08:00

Welcome

As heralded by a sudden change in the weather, here at GISEYE, summer is now upon us. Therefore, what has been achieved thus far? What is currently being achieved? And what will be achieved over the next few months of summer?

University

With university terms at Durham, Manchester, and Norwich, all finishing at roughly the same time within a thirty day period, it was then decided that the three editors of GISEYE were to experience the joys of travel by British Rail.

This was kick-started by Editor 1 Ben Bradley taking a train from Durham to Manchester, and then consequently a week later, Editor 1 and Co-editor 2 Clement Chew taking a further train from Manchester to Norwich. A week following that, Co-editor 2 took a train back up to Manchester, and Editor 1 took a train to Peterborough, changing for Durham. Previously, over Easter, Editor 1 took a train from Durham to London, Co-editor 1 took a train from Norwich to London, whilst Co-editor 2 took a train from Manchester to London. The formerly described journeys were all interspersed by intensive computer gaming and drinks possibly of an alcoholic nature. Co-editor 1 also succeeded in attaining possible poisoning of the latter-sort whilst Co-editor 2 decided to disperse such liquid over his laptop.

So all in all, the past year for all three editors has been exceedingly brilliant, far surpassing our collective expectations.

AWARDS

Yes it is that time of year again, the time for the GISEYE Awards, awarding to members of the general public of whom we feel are most relevant to the award in question. Much painstaking research and possibly hours of decision-making and analysis has gone into deciding the recipients of these awards. Thus, with no further delays, here they are:

The GISEYE Award for Editor – Ben Bradley

The GISEYE Award for Co-Editor 1 – Thomas Maxwell

The GISEYE Award for Co-Editor 2 – Clement Chew

The GISEYE Award for Most Composed – Chris Ho

The GISEYE/Berita Harian Award for Knowledge – Chris Ho
Possible runner-up – Lee Weng Yew

Chris Ho: for subscribing to the New Scientist Magazine during A Level Physics, and currently as we know it, still subscribing to this metaphorical vortex of physics-related knowledge and consequently humbly impressing us all with his physics/knowledge of most things.

Lee Weng Yew takes the Possible runner-up position for claiming that he’s currently studying at Cambridge University, and consequently proving so, and then in the face of adversity attaining exemplary first year degree results, in the top seventh percentile of results may we add, netting him a colossal 200.00 pound prize which he plans to share with his friends.*

*rumoured

The GISEYE Award for Driving – Woo Yi Xuan
Possible runner-up – Low Su-Zen
Possible runner-up 2 – Thomas Maxwell

YX Woo: many an event that took place over the past three years simply would not have been possible without Woo YX at the wheel of an aluminum-blue Honda Civic with the accompanying soothing lyrics of Jay Chou amongst other highly regarded artists here at GISEYE. Rumours are abound that YX plans to start a ‘Safety YX Driving School for Noobs’ in the near or far future.

Low Su-Zen takes the Possible runner-up position, for despite being completely against the odds, utilising her personal transportation option a number of times over Christmas to transport members of the public short distances.

Coming up rapidly behind Low Su-Zen is Thomas Maxwell in the Possible runner-up 2 position, as his parallel parking abilities are somewhat highly regarded, by even the multi-award winning Woo Yi Xuan himself, whilst also claiming to provide various journeys of a public transport related nature.

The Clement Chew Award for Musical Excellence – Johan Abdul Rahman
Possible runner-up/challenger – Jia Weii Hue

JAR: with numerous supporters of this recipient – through identifying his possibly hidden great political and diplomatic talents some say only matched by Chris Ho himself - already having created a Facebook group requesting him to run for the Presidency of a yet to be named country; The Clement Chew Award for Musical Excellence goes to Johan Abdul Rahman, currently studying at a university of music whilst also incredibly somehow managing (how, we do not know as of yet) to find time to play in a band. Also, for providing much enjoyment of a musical nature one night last summer when two of your allegedly misguided editors blundered their way through Heritage Row to witness a performance of his former band which has now been disbanded featuring Co-editor 2 Clement Chew at the helm of a weapon of a keyboard.

The Clement Chew Award for Bravery in the Face of Danger – Sin Chun Wai
Possible runner-up – Clement Chew

Sin Chun Wai: for managing to fool an assailant of African descent who held a knife to his groin one night out in the darker depths of London, that he in fact, did not at that time possess great wealth nor favours of a surprising fornicating nature that he wished to bestow upon the knife-wielding fellow, and thus he escaped unharmed, and went on to enjoy the rest of the night, safely.

Clement Chew takes the Possible runner-up position for his efforts contributed towards crowd control in the face of various yob-related behavior under his current job as Events Steward at various stadia around the country.

Which brings us nicely on to our next set of awards.

The GISEYE Award for Staying Safe – Woo Yi Xuan

Apart from one incident which will not be mentioned where he partook in unusual quantities of specific variants of beverages one night and much hilarity thus ensued.

The GISEYE/Jusco Award for Fashion – Simon Mo
Possible runner-up – Andrew Chan

For always managing to be in fashion whatever the time, place, or occasion that presents itself.

And for Andrew Chan, exclusively (though not all-exclusively) on the football pitch.

The Thomas Maxwell Award for Sporting Fitness – Verun Narula
Possible runner-up 1 – Brian Tan
Possible runner-up 2 – Woo Yi Xuan

Verun Narula: the award named after the colossal bastion of stamina, endurance and all things sporting fitness related, The Thomas Maxwell Award for Sporting Fitness goes to Verun Narula for a Michael Chopra-like performance of tracking back many a time during the total domination of a rival school side in the pursuit of football over the most recent Christmas break, a match that will fondly be remembered, remaining in the minds of your editors for many a year to come.

Brian Tan, takes the Possible runner-up 1 position for studying at the University of Bath which is well-known for its sporting facilities; additionally for humbly displaying various colossal photos pre or post-workout on his Facebook for the benefit of all to keep up to date with his progress. Although as to whether this position will be challenged in the near future by a Matthew Sixten Rust who will be attending another university – Loughborough – that is also well known for its sporting facilities, remains to be seen.

Meanwhile, Woo YX takes the Possible runner-up 2 position for a year and five months ago to this date, claiming that he can perform sixty push-ups, and consequently doing so, despite having -13.2% body fat and a heart rate at that time of 386 bpm, all possibly whilst under the influence and simultaneously winning at Age of Empires 2, a computer game that ranks very highly indeed on the GISEYE Current Cool List (GISEYECCL).

The GISEYE/Duke of Edinburgh Award for Should Have Gone to Kinabalu on DOE – Clement Chew

On an unrelated note, reports have it that Clement Chew will not be travelling to Romania for a holiday anytime soon.

The Ben Bradley Award for Extensive Verbal Communication – Kit Perry
Possible runner-up 1 – Nikesh Chahal
Possible runner-up 2 – Matthew Rust

The award so-named after the verbal stronghold well-known for utilising his vocal chords excessively in many a social situation, often to such an extent that others are simply unable to put more than three consecutive words in single conversations, the Ben Bradley Award for Extensive Verbal Communication thus goes to Kit Perry for providing many a vividly moving commentary – some say exceeded in eloquence and clarity only by the well-honed expertise of Co-editor 2 Clement Chew - to numerous blogcasts here at GISEYE over the years, when none others were willing to step up to the plate and be counted in a metaphorical manner. Kit Jimmy Koay Perry was unfortunately unavailable to comment on his award at the time of writing.

Canada’s Nikesh Chahal takes the Possible runner-up 1 position for his reportedly hard man image and numerous encouraging shouts and perfectly timed calls during our final year at GIS U18s.

Matthew 610 Rust takes the Possible runner-up 2 position for challenging the authority of Ellis during SEASAC06 with the carefully chosen words “ELLIS!!#123@$” following a cunning pre-planned Kieron-Dyer-esque ploy of refusing to play out/in of position and consequently quickly losing the verbal battle that ensued – but arguably winning his own moral victory which some say is what really only counts.

The Clement Chew Award for Noise – Chris Ho

SHHIIIIIIIIEEEEET

The GISEYE Man of Mystery (MoM) Award (formally the Verun Narula Man of the Match (MotM) Award – Matthew Ng

This award given to the enigmatic Matthew Ng based largely on the fact that possibly reluctant GISEYE informer, Abdur, who is reportedly at Sheffield, has not mentioned Matthew Ng in any correspondances thus far to this date. Matthew Ng was unfortunately unavailable to comment on receiving his award.

The Woo Yi Xuan Award for GG – Vincent/Chee-Meng Au

For displaying great skills in the pursuit of RO over the years, despite being abandoned on five separate occasions by various wayward members of the public, of which possibly includes several of your current humbly-serving editors.

The GISEYE Award for Blog Identity Crisis – Lee Weng Yew

Of a visual nature: Lee Weng Yew.blogspot.com or Lee Weng Yew.wordpress.com? Additionally, several departments at GISEYE are rumoured to be incensed at the removal of GISEYE from wengyew.wordpress.com’s ‘Useful Sites List’, and indeed off the face of ‘The Narrow Road’ completely. Whether this is in retaliation to the some say harsh but fair analysis conducted of the aforementioned blog’s name in an exclusive hard-hitting GISEYE article of months ago; or whether it is due to wengyew.blogspot.com reportedly falling out on sixty-three separate occasions with GISEYE; or indeed whether it is because of the amicable well-meaning kick to the groin administered by a certain Clement Chew to Lee Weng Yew one night in London over the most recent Easter period, with several witnesses present including your humble editors and Bus Number 92 bound for Tottenham Court Road, all remains to be seen.

With no links whatsoever to what has just been said, we would just like to take this opportunity to state that GISEYE collectively believes that Lee Weng Yew is a well-liked, extremely humble, conscientious, knowledgeable, honest, often out-spoken yet some say that there is a sensitive side to the hard man image portrayed, and always operating for the greater good, gentleman. GISEYE would also like to wish Lee Weng Yew all the best in his future studies and pursuits in life, and that Clement Chew has possibly been issued with a formal warning about his actions of a physical nature towards such a sterling example and that we can stress that there will be no physical contact from Clement Chew over the next 150 days.

The Thomas Maxwell Award for Business Studies – Amanda Leung

The award so-named from the Best in Year 13 for Business Studies Award-winner himself, goes to the hard-working Amanda Leung for the hard work, sweat and toil put in to achieve the 2:1 in her Business Studies degree at the end of her first year at respected London educational institution the University of Westminster.

Our fullest congratulations to the awards winners of this decade of awards; you can all collect your awards upon meeting either of the editors in person with certain criteria not specified as yet to be met as a requirement deciding forward nature.

End

This is GISEYE, signing off.

Stay safe.

Manchester Evening News Arena of a Positive Nature

2008-04-15T22:56:00.019+08:00

In response to possibly overwhelming demand, and in line with the current Facebook Premier Football trend; after hours of close deliberation, study of Football Manager 2008, past performances, goal scoring exploits and disciplinary records amongst others, and names of fellow former dwellers of the hallowed rustic nature of sixth form, we here at GISEYE have produced a 'GISEYE Select' team of approximately eleven players of the game football, which we feel if placed onto Facebook would indeed have an impact:

News
In other news, Co-Editor 2 Clement Chew has reportedly had a 12 hour shift at the M.E.N. Arena but at least he got to catch the FINA Tournament Finals live, Co-Editor 1 Thomas Maxwell has managed to successfully transfer himself from his Gran's house to UEA, and Co-Editor 3 Ben Bradley is currently residing in KL.

Also, with a growing surge in demand for digital cameras of late that completely caught us off our guard, and with Co-Editor 1's recent attainment a year ago of a digital camera; the great yet humble YX Woo has managed to produce within the space of 3 min 10 sec, an informative yet simulataneously absorbent video describing such a technological marvel, to rival even the most Extended versions of Co-Editor 2 Clement Chew's narrations on several of our blogcasts.

We'd like to take this opportunity to recommend taking a visit to The narrow road which if unverified reports are accurate, is rumoured to have based on recent weather trends, a purely-physics based post on the electrical phenomena that is thunderstorms of late..

Barenbrug Bar 10 RTF

2008-04-04T20:43:00.010+08:00

In what is likely to spark off a round a copy-cat posts at other blogs in the post-sixth-form blog realm, here is probably our most informative piece of information to the date of 4 April, 2008, providing you with a exclusive no holds-barred look into the inner runnings/structure of this very cumulation of mildly entertaining, arguably a step above, drivel of a positive nature, that is, giseye.

Other News
In other news, reports indicate the rise of an up-and-coming new blogger on the current sixth form horizon, named Martin Grey, his/her blog can be found at the attentively named Martin Grey's Diary not to be confused with the similarly named martingrey.blogspot.com. Checks indicated that he was of class 7G, located in room G6 for morning registrations. Further reports though confirmed that in fact he was not of class 7G, lower secondary. Additional reports after that later led us to discover that he was indeed a writer for the up and coming newspaper 'Perspective', which is based in the intellectual fountain that is school. Further reports suggested that there was a 33% chance that it could be Anonymous review, who indeed according to additional reports penned a further two articles in the latest issue of Perspective, thereby increasing the probability of it indeed being Anonymous review fourfold to the previously mentioned probability.

Analysis by your humble subservient editors drew up the conclusion that the layout of the blog of Martin Grey was indeed strikingly similar to Domo Argigato Mr Roboto, ofzim. Unfortunately, lacking in intellectual stimulation we were unable to come up with anything of a furtherly conclusive nature. However:

Further analysis of this mysterious predicament that we now currently find ourselves in, drew us naturally to the Perspective article entitled 'Grass field - Astroturf Field' which we felt was of particular relevance to this investigation, as was 'Poetry anthology 2008 winners' amongst others.

Grass field - Astroturf field
With two of your editors here at giseye previously featuring in what some say was the Golden Generation of the GIS footballing Alma mater (goals conceded tally of 1 before seasac06), others, state that they really weren't as good as they looked, others still, that they failed to convince fans of the merits of other sports such as swimming, and others still, spoke of the unpredictable nature of things such as life in general; we feel that a traditional grass field would be more suited for the hallow ground that is stadium tunku negara gis bhd. We would also like to take this opportunity to suggest the Barenbrug Bar 10 RTF variety, that we may possibly be affiliated with, of which the Barlexas II synergy which comprises 45% of the Barenbrug Bar 10 RTF mix, is reported to have "Excellent wear tolerance once established; good winter colour", and also features on many a Premier League club ground reportedly.

While you possibly wait for our next release or simply choose to never visit this site ever again, we cordially invite you to spend the time listening to the whole 18min18sec of what some say are the increasingly melodious tones of Co-Editor 2 Clement Chew, whose tones indeed are reported to possess a small but increasingly closely-knit fanbase, and to those musings of a subservient nature of Thomas Maxwell and those non-subservient though visibly wholesome Australian vocals off a certain Chris Ho amongst others, all found in our latest blogcast found coincidently below.

Game
Linking in with the above, now for a short temporary new feature of giseye entitled Game:
Burn the Rope

We would also like to take this opportunity to state that we hope that quality will improve in the coming future.

GISEYE: University and Snow.

2008-01-06T22:34:00.002+08:00

A BELATED MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL.

What we have served up for you now:

Blogs
Where are we now? And what are we doing?
LAN PARTY + STEAK
Paintball
Victory of a football-related nature
New Year’s Eve
Go-kart racing
What we think will happen in the future

Blogs
Recent events have seen the eruption of two new blogs on the post-sixth form related blogging horizon: the 'the diary of menz', which after much analysis we believe could either be a clever play on words on 'The Diary of Anne Frank' or on the song 'The Diary of Jane' by current popular band Breaking Benjamin, a band that amongst other things, have featured on numerous WWE video games. The wittily named 'Domo Arigato Mr Roboto' was also launched prior to the diary of menz, having adopted a simple, light white theme, in direct contrast to the more darker visual musings, but no doubt of high quality, of the latter blog.

Both blogs have provided much possible literal enjoyment for all three editors.

In other news, wengyew.blogspot.com has undergone a total makeover, changing its title to 'The narrow road'. Whether this is in reference to the claustrophobic narrowness of Jalan Kiara 3 due to the sudden preposterous parking of vehicles along helpfully painted yellow lines after 2.20pm weekdays; or to the alleged narrow roads of popular student entertainment destination Cambridge; or indeed to Matthew 7:13-14, as the well-respected writer of that blog states in his latest update, all are possibly contentious issues in our minds.

Also happening, the challenge-to-type anniepoooooo.blogspot.com (not to be confused with anniepooooo.blogspot.com, which appears to be written by another person who surprisingly is also called Ann and is also of the age 18), recently released a >1300 word essay of an update, however we believe the said person is possibly confused as the introductory paragraph stated "noone reads my blog anymore" which directly contradicts with what we experienced, and thus made us question ourselves and possibly our very existence...

Where are we now? And what are we doing?
Against popular opinion and trends, we have opted not to go for deep and dark emotional musings in our literal content at this present state in time.

Instead, at exactly this present state in time, your three humble editors are currently residing exactly in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, having been here for the past three weeks or so, having been beaten in the travel-related race back to KL by the ultra-competitive yet humble Weng Yew by a margin of just over a mere 6.04 x (10^5) seconds.

The obvious first choice for us was a visit to school, however we unexpectedly instead found ourselves in the establishment ‘1utama’, and proceeded to watch the film I Am Legend of which we all highly approved of although the ending where Will Smith dies and the woman and child find safety in a survivor's colony and Bob Marley's song Redemption then plays, could possibly have been better.

LAN

Much sporadic lan parties fuelled by refreshments of an ethanol-related nature to add to the general sense of merriment, whilst also consuming steak to a greater degree, have been enjoyed since, excessive compliments to the organisers. Although a post-morning mcdonalds experience was of a negative nature due to chilli being added to the tomato sauce metal container for the benefit of Maxwell who was much displeased and unfortunately did not receive a rightful full refund, reports of inaction by a ChrisHo with regards to acquiring the refund were attributed to such.

Paintball
An also rather violent paintball session (accolades going to the well-experienced Clement Chew) also followed, in which two cars were damaged severely, Verun ‘panadol’ Narula, whilst many others almost had to go to hospital though did not.

An unfortunate incident involving a paintball gun and car of Rust esq.

Further misfortunes experienced with the car of maxwell esq.

Victory of a football-related nature
The past couple of weeks saw the planned coming together of several post-sixth formers (including two of your subservient editors) of our current generation, plus the second shortest member of the Perry lineage of whom we all owe much thanks to of a football-pitch-acquisition-nature, and also an appearance by the older of the infamous Chan brothers, to all indulge in a light game of 10-a-side full pitch football against a spirited similarly-aged side hailing from the North American regions of Mont Kiara of which we have enjoyed a friendly rivalry with over past years, the same we are unable to say about our fellow British A-Level and IGCSE-providing rivals also located in Malaysia, whom we enjoy an even friendlier rivalry with.

First to open the scoring at around precisely 3.33pm was a certain M Rust (supporter of well loved EPL club ManU), who after a clever through pass, managed to somehow divert the ball attached to his leg past several dangerous opposition players into the back of the opponent’s net, GIS then chose to revert to a fully defensive formation (10) in order to protect this massive lead for the remainder of the game. Despite this however, GIS then managed to score a further eight goals.

Heroics from Australian goalkeeper JasonYeoh (who appears not to be related to the well-respected, cheerful, larger than life fellow that is a ChrisHo), who was making a pre-planned return to KL some say solely for the purpose of treading the goal-line of this hallowed ground that is stadium tunku negara gis, were not enough for GIS to gracefully concede a grand total four goals.

The final score was 9-4 to some say arguably the greatest side ever to grace the current green grass of GIS, others say this statement is not true at all, whilst others on the other hand, choose not to have an opinion on this subject at all.

Mention should also go to democratically voted Man of the Match Verun ‘man of the match’ Narula, mentioned earlier in a paintball-related incident, who put on a sterling match-winning performance covering for central defenders B Bradley and A Chan, and also provided moral and further covering support for ‘power surging runs upfield’ Maxwell in some cases.

Further mention should also go to the highly successful strike partnership of BrianTan and the aforementioned M Rust, whose chemistry of a footballing-nature was a sight to behold that indeed possibly all three of your editors did indeed stop all their current activities at that time, that included defending, and call of duty 4, just to behold the sight that was the chemistry of BrianTan and M Rust on that successful afternoon. No doubt credit must also go to BrianTan’s chemistry teacher of year 12 and 13 who arguably had a part to play in such an exquisite football relationship.

Even more further mention and accolades must also go to the plucky opposition team who gave a well-respected performance, and we must say that all involved on our side thoroughly enjoyed that afternoon. No doubt the cardiovascular benefits of such an afternoon will reap even greater rewards in the coming future for all involved...

New Year’s Eve
Spent partly by co-editor 1 at the Mandarin Oriental amidst the welcome company of several well-respected members of our post-sixth form generation, however we agree with the calls of a spirit-related nature by whatwouldzimdo.blogspot.com, which would have possibly improved the evening even more so.

Apparently only one taxi is allowed to drive to the lobby of the Mandarin Oriental every two hours, and also apparently the current value of a small bottle of tiger is RM40. Therefore we would advise against spending money on such items for the time being until macroeconomic deflation occurs.

Co-editor 2 opted for the relatively cheaper depths of Souled Out, Hartamas, amidst the company of a certain M Rust, ChrisHo, and de Regt, amongst others. A certain knight was also rumoured to have made an appearance, much to the unwarranted yet exhilarated violently emotional reaction of ChrisHo.

Greater analysis is currently ongoing of the facial posture expressed by blue shirt wearing well-respected individual in top right corner, and of the symmetrical pattern appearing on the bottomost shirt of the well-respected individual with a cheery expression on his face, the glaring fire hazard in the middle, and also of the fist held aloft by far-most right well-respected individual which we believe is not in accordance with general martial art practices

Co-editor Chew whereabouts were reported to be of a family-related nature.

Go-Kart Racing
One fine Friday morning, several people (including Co-editor 2) happened to meet at 69 Jalan TR9/6, all with the similar intentions of going to Extreme Park Sunway for a Go-Karting session. Once the relevant transportation options had been arranged and Maxwell woken up and ready a brief stop was made at the local 7/11 store to buy drinks of an energising nature. It was predicted that such an event would pass without any inconvenience but once back in the car a certain ChrisHo noticed an irregularity within his bottle of 100PLUS, the contents of his bottle had seemingly began to solidify into misty white-ish particles that remained suspended in the liquid. Immediate outrage was declared by ChrisHO followed by a refusal to drink the 100Plus and then an immediate confirmation of him never purchasing 100Plus from this particular 7/11 ever again.

All problems aside, the journey continued towards Extreme Park, Sunway without any incidents of note (Driven expertly by Adriaan DeRegt of course). Upon reaching the destination it was found the majority of extreme park had been turned into a quarrying site with the means of possible re-development in the future, leaving a relatively small area of land for the Go-Karting track to go. A general disappointment was to be had with regards to the current state of the track and a quick decision was made that it was not worth the RM65 for 20 mins on a track of this nature. Brainstorming of possible replacement tracks commenced and it was decided upon the “Track next to the highway going to the airport”. Following the ever reliable directions of ChrisHo a path was etched towards said track. After 45 minutes, spending RM16.40 on various Toll PLAZA’s, visiting PutraJaya, ending up back at Extreme Park and making an estimated 16.5 ‘U’ turns we finally condescended upon the unnamed track.

The races were rather eventful with many spins, crashes, broken arms/legs, snapped accelerator cables, and overtaking manoeuvres. These following videos and photos will hopefully depict the events with enough vigour to satisfy your ever important needs.

Chris Ho there, demonstrating what appears to be a force 10newtons strong tae-kwan-do forward horizontal arm thrust with the aim of propelling himself forward in the general direction of the photographer, bypassing bystander Wouter De Regt on his left on the way, having already taken into account of the possibility of colliding with the stationary object that is the petrol tank directly in his path that could self combust and explode at any time

Some of the speeds seen in this video were reportedly rumoured to be well in excess of 160 kph

logical final result

p.s. The videos were filmed by Co-Editor 2 as he was unable to take part in the last 10 minutes due to possible illness.

The future
Thomas Maxwell is set to return to the plains of UAE, Norwich, East Anglia, England, where the experience so far has been reportedly highly enjoyable.

Ben Bradley is set to return to Durham University set in the snow covered masses of Durham, England, of which the experience thus far has been equally as highly enjoyable as the first aforementioned prediction. Photos to follow in due course.

Clement Chew on the other hand, in direct contrast to the two situations above, is set to return to the University of Manchester in rain-swept western-reaches of Manchester, England, where much enjoyment has also been had, he also has taken up Wing-Tsun Kung Fu, and thus is capable of killing.

And now for a highly irregular unpredictable feature of our reports, Song Of The Day, in which we list songs, of the day.

Bradley: David Sylvian - For The Love of Life
Chew: Nothing at this exact moment in time
Maxwell: Oasis - Guess God Thinks I’m Abel

THIS JUST IN: reports have come in of a rumoured planned excursion tomorrow into gis by several blog editors, possibly including the three who pen this blog amongst others. Will update as more news comes in, including – a light fracas incident with security, and whether the predictions listed below are to come true:

Large bowls for sinks in the sixth form toilets
Possibly a NEW sixth form common room, with straight orange seat backs and a stone pathway leading into the entrance doors
Possibly a RELOCATED head of sixth form office?
New water fountains all with cold water, completely free of iron oxide
Refurbished science labs
A new Principal
A plaque recognising the contribution to general sixth form life by certain individuals located on the eastern-most wall of the sixth floor of the arts block and also an identical copy located facing directly upwards in the north corridor of the third floor

AND ALSO, has the mysteriously-intentioned Wall of Hands of GIS2007 been destroyed, or are these simply speculative rumours?

All content to be confirmed after tonight, come our next update.

We apologise for the lateness of this cast, but of course there are some people who missed it, as they were in a rather lethargic state and didn't bother to scroll down, or were simply just not interested. Kit Perry and Iskandar have a trivial pillow fight in the common room, and Kit also manages to scrounge Ben Teo's footwear.

Stay safe.

WHAT IS THE POINT OF THIS POST, ANSWER TO FOLLOW SHORTLY

2007-10-23T22:37:00.000+08:00

After a brief break, we are humbly proud to proclaim to the approximately three, people that read this blog, that GISEYE is now back, with a renewed vigour for further mildly pleasing literal and visual narrations.

Of a mildly-pleasing nature

Thus, having run out of ideas as to how to write, we borrow from the gallant Lee Weng Yew's literary style, with this next piece.

So how have we been spending our time since the last post? Well unexpectedly having forgotten much of what has taken place since the last post, we have attempted to recollect small pieces of memories of the last few months over the brief break that we undertook. In numerical chronological order:

1. A Level examinations revision
2. Easter Holidays (fourteen days)
3. A Level examinations partaking
4. Scaling one of the highest mountains in the world, Mt Kinabalu Laban Rata, along with fellow currently known bloggers, Matthew Six, Ten Rust, Kit Perry, Lee Weng Yew, and Edwin Loo, and possibly Andrei Popescu to name a few. (however unfortunately not the humble Clement Chew).
5. Being both highly positively invigorated and disappointed by Transformers: The Movie, which was both an utter waste of time and a glorious visual feast for all ages that ought not to be missed by anyone of any age.
6. Final days of school
7. Listening to Johan Abdul Rahman's Band
8. Computer game networking and the agonising wait for new laptops
9. Reading books
10. Visiting Langkawi
11. A Level results
12. Summer
13. Future

The Tenements of Revision
We must collectively say that we all thoroughly enjoyed our A Level examinations revision that indeed a few days ago a few of us possibly actually did partake in some further A Level revision, after our exams had been taken purely to bring back brilliant memories of our A Level learning experiences.

Indeed, such was the heightened levels of enjoyment of our A Levels revision, we recommend to any of the aspiring current A and AS Level students who read this, to start your revision early, the recommended time being before the Easter Holidays, so as to maximise revision enjoyment purposes.

A Level Examinations partaking

KINABALU
Along with a cohort of fellow year 13s who are named in alphabetical order from here on: Lee Weng Yew, Matthew Sixten Rust, Kit Perry, Woo Yi Xuan, Jean Kee, Wei Jean, Sun, Christopher Ho. Also present were former year 12s who we believe are now possiblu the current year 13s: Andrei Popescu, Dana Moult, Edwin Loo, Raymond, Julian, Ke Ni, amongst others. Late additions to the trip were a collection of respected teachers as well.

On July 1 we departed for Mt Kinabalu from the LCCT KLIA which was later to be the source of much visual glory a couple of weeks later. Upon arriving in KK and after some time had passed we proceeded with much aplomb up the mountain, Maxwell and Bradley making a late desperate surge to the Laban Rata guesthouse to arrive joint forth respectively, to await the arrival of the rest an hour later.

Visually arousing

After awakening at somewhere around 3am and after some time had passed it was reported that we had reached the summit of the possibly highest mountain in asia and then under the mysterious unproclaimed leadership of a matthew rust; maxwell, perry, lee, woo, and bradley then proceeded to proceed in a general downwards direction from the summit of the mountain.

(from R-L) A Highly Respected Member of the General Public, Thomas ‘Hat Maxwell, Woo ‘London’ Yi Xuan, Kit ‘In Front’ Perry, Ben ‘Highest Point Vertically’ Bradley, Matthew ‘Second from Left’ Rust, Lee ‘Excellent Oral Hygiene’ Weng Yew

Once the descent to Laban Rata was completed, a brief rest was taken by those who were first down. Surprisingly, those who were first to reach the summit were coincidentally first to reach Laban Rata. After a rather satisfying breakfast it was decided that the group of year 13’s should depart for the base camp. After several minutes had passed Lee Weng Yew, Maxwell and Bradley decided the pace was not to their liking and at a pace of approximately “insertnumberhere” mph a quicker descent was initiated amidst complaints from Yew arguing the fact that his legs were somewhat shorter than his companions.

ooner rather than later, Yew was left behind by the longer legged Maxwell and Bradley who were seemingly on a ‘blinker led’ mission to the bottom. ALTHOUGH suddenly Matthew Rust came bounding down behind us at a speed around 14% faster than ours. A race then ensued, keeping drinks and rests to a minimal 0 stops the downward descent of the mountain was completed in a GISEYE record time of 2hrs.30mins. Commendations are due to Matthew Rust, Ben Bradley and Thomas Maxwell, words must also be spared to Dana Moult, Kit Perry, Andrei Popescu and Lee Weng Yew who seeming fell down the mountain about 30 min later.

After a brief rest a multi personnel bus transported the group to KK where an amazing hotel was discovered complete with swimming pool. Food was a taste sensation (when it came, obviously the arrival of 30+ people was a shock to the kitchen who seemed to only be employing one chef), certificates handed out to those successful and those not so successful and a general sense of merriment was experienced by all in attendance.

Night quickly turned into day and we boarded the airplane, YX was continually disturbed by the window and the long legged people sitting next to him, much to his disgust.

Arrival back in KL occurred without much disturbance.

and the journey back to the five star hotel in KK which was luxury at its finest, also narrations of the plane journeys and possibly near violent commotions at the airports that preceeded and followed such journeys. Or read Matt Rust's blog because that might have an account.

Can we also just say that The Duke of Edinburgh's Award is to be universally recognised and widely adopted as the best programme for the personal development of young people and that The Duke of Edinburgh's Award is committed to providing for young people an enjoyable, challenging and rewarding programme of personal development, which is of the highest quality and the widest reach, and The Award is widely recognised by employers and people involved in education. Some of the benefits to young people include developing self-confidence and self-reliance; gaining a sense of achievement and a sense of responsibility; discovering new skills, interests and talents and developing leadership skills and abilities. They can also discover exciting opportunities; make new friends; experience teamwork, problem-solving and decision-making; increase their motivation; enhance their self-esteem and develop their communication skills.

Also, it was without doubt one of the major highlights of our sixth form, if not, secondary school, experience.

Transformers: the movie
Opinions on the movie are split.

YX – GG Movie, damn good la!.
Bradley – Hmm..quite shit tobehonest.
Maxwell – Agreed with YX.

A mixture or other opinions across Year 13 ranging from a cum, to a shit fest.

Final days of school
Violent common room commotion near death experiences and some Fariq other-people's-bag-relocation-services provided by the said person, one of the near dozens that were also partaking in such a calorie-burning activity to the benefit of health.

Johan Abdul Rahman's band featuring Clement Chew
*For letting us watch him, and the other members of his band project, perform to great personal satisfaction for certain members of the population of Malaysia, recently.

Held in the dark, damp, groaning posh restaurants of Heritage Row, of which the name escapes us temporarily, to be confirmed in our next post for the factually-in-need.

Three spotlights on Clement Chew, with an attractive wall piece behind him to further complement his skills of a musical nature

Laptops – Yi Xuan turns to violence.
It was decided that a Laptop would be needed for general university activities so Woo, Maxwell and Bradley decided to opt for a Dell Inspiron 1720, 1720 and 1520 respectively (differences are screen sizes 15 and 17 inch). Consequently all laptops were ordered within a few days of each other, thus giving the impression that all should arrive at similar times. This was not to be.

First to arrive was Ben’s 1520, after slightly less than a week his brand spanking new laptop arrived much to his excitement.

Second was Maxwell with his 1720, after several delays and hold-ups with parts shortages. It arrived almost 15 days after ordering thanks to persistent emailing and complaints about service. General success as everything was in working order.

Third – Yi Xuan Woo, after 3 weeks he was becoming increasingly agitated with sending daily emails and receiving the same reply “Im sorry there is a severe screen shortage”. He contemplated many solutions including:

- Changing his order
- Cancelling his order
- Increase number of complaints to 3 a day
- Demand compensation
- Do nothing

Options 3 and 4 were chosen and it turned out that a free 2GB thumb drive was to be given free of charge, much to his happiness. After a slightly longer than expected wait he received his items.

Although that was not the end. He decided to ignore the warnings and software provided by Vista, and proceeded to partition his hard-drive using a downloaded programme. During mid-partition a failure occurred causing the drive to become unrecognisable and well, broken. A complete reformat was needed an after many days, he could finally use his laptop.

Many LAN-Parties have been enjoyed since.

THIS NEWS JUST IN – A CHRIS HO HAS ALSO ORDERED AND RECEIVED A DELL INSPIRON 1520 LAPTOP ALTHOUGH IT MUST BE SAID THAT IT IS SLIGHTLY BETTER IN SPECS THAN THE THREE PEOPLE MENTIONED EARLIER

Langkawi
*****
13 people happened to coincidently meet up at KL LCCT one fine day.

This cleverly encapsulates 7/13ths of the total

Reading books
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows nearly spoilt.

Accolades must go to all of the year 13 geography class generation of 2006/7 which was probably the best sixth form geography class we've ever been in.
Alang Aris, Maevis and Brian* Tan, Clement Chew, Ben Bradley, Thomas Maxwell, Suzen Low*.

*Unfortunately due to possible illnesses these two students did not manage to finish A Level Geography

Also infinite thanks to the intellectually geographically-inclined Giants that are Mr Dan Moore and Mr Sean McAdam. Can we also say that we’d like to speak to anyone currently doing sixth form geography..

THIS NEWS JUST IN LATE LAST LAST MONTH - Reported sighting of the Geographical Legend that is Mr Mark Tighe in Kiaramas Home Providing Condominiums Mont Kiara.

A Level results
Research has shown that this year's A Level results were approximately a possible 96.2% better than last year's results, which we must commend everyone involved on.

We must first take this opportune opportunity to congratulate everyone involved who partook in A Level examinations this year and on their results, and hopefully everyone got into the universities of their choice, and if you didn't then it was greatly unfortunate but it all ought to turn out for the better in the end anyway, as nothing is as bad as it seems possibly, all the best.

Mention must go to the extravagantly humble Lee Weng Yew who was the only member of this generation of year 13s who managed to get into the University of Cambridge, which we believe is a highly respected and historic university deeply steeped in academic history, where several prominent Malaysians have been to, such as various politicians and members of the public on high wages, either on tourism related visits or to study at for the general benefit of all involved.

In other news, the DT students received their results later than everyone else because of the EDEXCEL examinations board which offers the opportunity to check one's results online.

So what is to become of the previous and rest of this summer for your humble richly marginal editors?

Contentious bit
Clement 'Chinese' Chew, who will be starting at the University of Manchester soon, is currently operating in the suburbs of Kuala Lumpur, after having hosted many pool_days gahaha both virtually and physically for the enjoyment of those involved and those not possibly. Also, we have heard reports recently that he is now currently operating in the United Kingdom, along with the greatly modest yet celebrated Chun Wai.

Thomas ‘Agri-business’ Maxwell, will be starting at the University of East Anglia soon, he is currently enjoying life in Norwich. Furthermore

Ben ‘£29.99 football boots’ Bradley, will be starting at the University of Durham soon, now in England, also.

THIS JUST IN
Clement Chew is now at the University of Manchester, Thomas Maxwell is at the University of East Anglia, and Ben Bradley is at the University of Durham.

We sincerely apologise to all involved both internally and externally for the possible time-based discrepancies in the above text, as parts of it were written more than a month ago, and others, today. And on that note, we’d like to try and end with the compliments* to a certain Johan Abdul Rahman Esq. Who we believe is currently involved in a project of some sorts, more information on this as it comes in, or you could just read Matt Rust’s blog..

Several Historic Stuff to Update on

2007-03-25T16:44:00.000+08:00

Incredibly late post, subjects click to long jump jump:
Chinese New Year | Revision | Unrest in Common Room | ISAKL Athleticism | Muse | The Paradoxes of the Great Meng

Whilst lavishing you all with apologies for this late post, we hope to improve our post quality and variety into various interesting school-related issues quickly into the future.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR
We shall not wish a Happy Chinese New Year to anyone as this was previously done so in a previous post. Whilst the rest of the year and school were fraternizing not with the enemy, socializing at the various well-known shopping malls around Kuala Lumpur inner area, earning thousands of money through grabbing ang pows, and visiting loved relatives during the recent Chinese New Year break, your humble and diligent editors spent their time staying indoors, spending time at their computers, learning, practicing their handwriting, buying stationary, being sick, and generally trying to stay away from the sun. Amongst other things we also wasted a vast amount of time.

In other news, now that term has started, the dark apocalypse of examinations approaches on the horizon. We wish everyone who wishes to do well in their upcoming examinations, well. And to those that don’t, we do not wish you well in the area of exams.

REVISION DOWN THE DRAIN
With teachers having upped the ante, with more teachers finishing their syllabuses, and focusing on revision classes of the revising nature, for the great benefit of all involved., our analysis has shown so far that there are two main methods of revision for us students:

NUMBER 1: LISTS
NUMBER 2: SPIDER DIAGRAMS

As to whether which method is best is debatable, indeed, there can only be one best sole supreme method for all to use However, which is it? This conundrum has confounded your reflective editors for hours on end, going on into the early hours of mornings, contemplating in dark rooms with dripping water as an added aid to memory, as to the answer to such a paradoxical debacle. Indeed, amongst the masses that are you, our great and high-ranking readers, this predicament has caused a great unrest.

UNREST IN THE COMMON ROOM
Continuing on the latterly typed sentence above, this great unrest has even come close to violence indeed, such is the importance of an issue: lists or spider diagrams. Flailing limbs and punches to sensitive regions abound. So finally, we would like to say that we humbly believe that the answer to the most effective method of revision can be found for obvious reasons in another post of ours ‘Prom – A Preview’.

VIOLENT THEFT OF ITEM OF CONSIDERABLE SENTIMENTAL AND FINANCIAL VALUE
Our sources in the criminal nether regions have brought reports that indicate that an item of considerable sentimental and financial value, namely an Apple ipod has been reported stolen from the lavishly furnished, gloriously decorated, and perfectly structured Common Room.

Initial reports show that the burglary was committed by a foul despicable scoundrel of a man/woman, on Wednesday 28, February 2006, between the 3rd period and Lunch.

Several people in year 13 have confirmed the above reports and an investigation indirectly led gallantly by the respectful editors of this blog, is currently underway. So if any of you happen to have:

seen someone steal that ipod or
stolen the/an ipod

We strongly urge you to come forward with information and your personal particulars, as this could prove increasingly extremely valuable in solving this crime for the benefit of all those involved.

Public service announcement of the angry nature and how to bring up your kids: STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG STEALING IS WRONG

Seriously, all of us are still struggling to fathom how anyone in the sixth form could have stolen an ipod, not in the way in which ipods are particularly difficult to steal, but in the fact that that person/s could ever have the audacity and sense of mind to commit such a dastardly act of theft.

Theft isn’t non-existent in this school; we know that, indeed one of our acquaintances had the misfortune to have his handphone stolen, straight out of his bag in school, a few months ago; however, this theft was not by anyone in the sixth form, but by a member of the lower years of the school.

All three editors would like to say that we would gratefully deal humble justice to whoever is caught stealing from anyone.

PERSON WANTS TO BUY AN IPOD
In other completely unrelated news, being well-meaning inferior members of this year group, we seek to continually assist and go out of our ways physically and mentally to help those in need. One person in particular appears to be in urgent need of an ipod, of which details of his need can be found on the rear end wall of the common room. So please, if you happen to have an ipod that you fancy selling off, we recommend you come forward as soon as possible, and help out this person in need for the greater benefit of everyone. Condition and price can be negotiated.

ISAKL Athletics

absolutely OUTRAGEOUS

INJURY-PREVENTION

Yeah was a really good experience Says Clement, applause must be directed in the general direction of our very own Clement Chew (for winning a sack of medals) and to the rest of the athletics team, for their effort-driven performances. ISKL were pretty good but, but Alice Smith emerged out of the pits victorious. They put up a COLOSSAL BATTLE.

A poor MUSE review

Rubbish photo. Hopefully someone will be well endowed as to provide us with some finer invigoratingly better quality ones.

CONFIDENTLY THE Best concert so far ever in this universe with various mentions muscle museum even though that song wasn’t played but this editor wouldn’t know anyway because he unfortunately did not know any Muse songs except two and thus suffered throughout the whole performance and had to resort to shouting in general at random times whilst being vertically disadvantaged meant that got a request to duck down by at least two people and asked to act as a photographer for persons, however, this meant that could see clearly the brilliance that is Matt Bellamy and his fellow bandmembersthatwedon’tknowthenamesof in what was PROBABLY THE BEST LIVE BAND PERFORMANCE EVER so far in our histories. In their age group. (Obviously the Black Shirt Mondays and other sixth form bands also reign in the upper midsts of best live band performances ever but are of different age groups)

Magician Down editor Sir Au Chee Meng was spotted eagerly seated above in the ‘Royal seating’ area along with Maharaja Verun Narula, who both had fantastic views of the concert, albeit from a distance of an approximately at least five miles away, and didn’t have to get washed with sweat from oscillating wildly members of the audience.

We were informed that quite a considerable number of GIS students incld. a few from year 12, the year 12s, did traverse, along with several Alice Smith and a few ISKL students (to name two of our humble rivals to a degree), along to this MUSICAL EXHIBITION OF MIND BLOWING QUALITIES.
Apparently that well-known famous celebrity Azura Zainal, host of SoccaStars Malaysia and the deceased Disney Buzz, was in the audience that night, not that we would’ve known, or if this fact is of any importance for the popularity of this blog. Of which it is

THE PARADOXES OF THE GREAT: MENG'S GALLANT EFFORT TO WIN OVER
In other news, a Chee Meng has recently embarked on a Struggle For Acceptance, choosing the medium of mathematics to act as a representation. The Monty Hall Paradox and some cards being what he used. However as Thomas Maxwell’s blog ohsoimba and Zim's Zimo, and Chee Meng's Magician Down, who recently asked us all to get the fuc k off his blog, have described recently, Chee Meng was not as successful as he possibly would have liked; failing to persuade everyone in gis why you should swap your choice of card for another one.

However, Chee Meng also has a new paradox which is quite crafty indeed, involving mathematics and the lark, which we shall not reveal the solution to as we don't know it, and let the denizens of the populace figure it out themselves, whilst Chee Meng basks in adoration and glorifying of the very humble nature.

Yeah and as always, hopefully better quality material will follow.

More eyes.

2007-03-16T15:34:00.000+08:00

Following a recent conversation with his cousin, Co-Editor 1 has been quite obssessed with acquiring photos of eyes. Therefore, below are some photos of eyes that have been carefully taken by the use of an Olympus u700 7.1 megapixel camera. Great thanks must go to correspondents Sebastian Schellerer, Marco Fuchs and Max Kuenen of Year 8 for kindly posing for their respective photos.

Newspaper

2007-02-14T16:01:00.000+08:00

If you really can't be bothered about the new newspaper released this morning, at this present time, then please save your bother from reading the following, and when you do get bothered, you can return to this later to consume in a literal sense. Alternatively, just wait for the next more relevant articles and blogcast/s.

Today, we witnessed during morning registration the release of another school newspaper, the ambiguously titled 'Fertilisation Initial' in addition to those already present: INK, Access, and the Weekly Newsletter.

FERTILISATION INITIAL

Sort of what the new newspaper looks like

We would like to say that we applaud (earlier this morning applause was made, in addition to that of exalted diginified YET humble Head Boy Benjamin Goh's celebration of his birthday) any positive contribution to the reading entertainment welfare of our school, be it be of a competitive nature.

But.

The somewhat anonymous nature of this newnewspaper though, annoys us minimally to some extent.

Afterall, secondary to our purpose of fulfilling the demands of you our readers, is our observation much obliged that we can't help noticing the minimal similarity between the 'Year 13 Camp' article in the newspaper, and our contrasting account here, in particular to paragraph two in the newspaper. Infinitely no offence intended to those behind the new newspaper, but reading somewhat the same narrative twice isn't the most satisfying of pursuits, even if it is one paragraph. Or perhaps it is purely a coincidence, where in that case we applaud the writers behind the new newspaper for also being witness to such an event.

Additionally, a few things in relation this new newspaper have somewhat disheartened us to a minimal degree, and we (Ben, Clement, and Thomas) would like to raise a few points to clear them up uprighteously:

the mislabeling of two co-editors, or indeed, the three editors of this blog, as being those who were chiefly behind this new newspaper
we did not arrange for an interview with Mr. Smith
we did not write any of the articles in such a paper released this morning
we did not print such a paper (Co-Editor 1 being known to be severely lacking in cash flow, Co-Editor 2 known for excessive loan-consumption, Co-Editor 3 spending much of his money on a certain significant other party)

Unequivocally, we editors simply would currently not have the time to indulge in the pursuit of writing such a newspaper, having plenty of essays to do in Economics and Business Studies, football and basketball to attend to, amongst other things, aside from building up material for the next onslaught of posts for this elevated blog.

We hope that the next issue of this newnewspaper does not stir up as much conflict amongst us as this issue has; neither decrease the atom-like reputation of this blog. Please, we don't particularly like (wrong) rumours being spread with regards to ourselves, so we hope we have cleared up them. Indeed, we shall refrain from mentioning the potential people we believe to be behind this new newspaper, until we can get direct confirmation of their direct involvement.

We must say that these editors did have the idea a while back (this led to Co-Editor 2 misinforming a few members of our year this morning (which he regrets uniformly) the allegations that Co-editor one may have been directly responsible for the articles printed in the new newspaper today, however, we seek possibly to deny these accusations with the utmost prejudice) to release in addition to this, this blog in newspaper form.

However, the release of the exceedingly glossy and righteous student newspaper recently, that is INK, by enterprisingly agile glorious members of the year below that of us, meant that we gave up on our giseye newspaper idea rather quickly.

Review of Fertilisation Initial:
- monochromatic. INK, to us at least, not that our opinions matter a great deal to anyone of concern much obliged, is much more pleasant on the giseye
-/+ blocks and blocks of text (would be much enjoyed by those who enjoy reading excessive words)
- lack of identity
+ lack of spelling errors (Co-Editor 2 was much appeased)
+ effort
+ nicely structured
+ nay

Indeed, we were informed a couple of weeks ago by those behind INK that their next issue is due out soon, which we shall look forward to greatly. And unbiasedly, whenever the next issue of Fertilisation Initial comes out, we also look forward to greatly. Just a note that who is behind Fertilisation Initial, if you're reading this, please don't take our above comments in negativity or be discouraged, as we wholly support with all hands uplifted the publication and release of yours, INK, the Weekly Newsletter, and Access, as reading materials for our beloved school.

Our apologies unequivocally for such an article, being of not much positivity, and hence not very pleasant in terms of what you had to read. That is, unless you take unboundable pleasure reading negativity, in which case we have served our purpose of appeasing you readers.

Normal service shall resume very soon, with a few articles and a couple of blogcasts to come up.

- Ben, Clement, Thomas

CCCCAmp

2007-01-23T17:45:00.000+08:00

Well, well, well, so camp's over. After a few days last week of the greatest looking-forward-to-ness of feelings, camp has flown past us.

Journey: out
Initially, as all camp's start, at Friday lunch.

We boarded a large coach. a few members of the year (two of the editors Thomas Maxwell and Clement Chew included) choosing to sit separately in a small white van, and a few others more taking a large busty private car, to journey into the general direction of the East Coast Sommerset Resort.

The obligatory chatter filled the air of the bus for the first half hour, then it subsided as people got bored of talking to each other and drifted off into sleep.

Meanwhile, in the van, the two editors Clement and Thomas, were indulging in some close quarters baroque classical music through the rear end of the vehicle.

Minibus enjoyment - if you look closely you can see us in the bus up front

As our journey drew on, various punches were thrown and a slight mishap as the van suddenly levitated due to clement standing up and sitting down rather quickly. All problems aside the destination was reached in their little white bus relatively safely and bags.

Returning to the bus, some bright member of our year had the brilliant idea of watching the thought provoking visual feast that is Paparazzi, which basically involves:

someguyfamousfordoingsomethingiforgot gets angry at photographer man for taking pics of his child playing football
paparazzi man goes away and returns with other paparazzis (and bizarrely an Englishman as well), who then make it their life mission to indirectly kill the famous man
the famous man returns the favour by making it his life mission to kill all of the paparazzi posse
the famous man cunningly deceives grey haired detective, despite the detective discovering much valuable bleedingly obvious information evidence
paparazzi lose cause they all get killed. famous man now a murderer of five people wins

Unfortunately, your editor was unable to fully enjoy the visual sensation that was the film, as the palpitating initial camera flashes at the start, and the short sequence in the middle with that screechingly high frequency noise being emitted from a security camera viewing monitor, coupled with the Bomba Stereo Bomba thundering audio, a large speaker conveniently placed directly over your correspondant's seat. This editor regrets very much.

We conclude that the bus journey wasn't that eventuful, and those of you that didn't go, didn't miss anything with regards, to the bus trip.

Arrival
So at around 5.30, we all arrived at the resort Somerset, colonial style columns galore.

After a short violent commotion involving Yi Xuan losing his bag, Chris and Julie called for order in the crowd gathered on the main steps (your impatient honest editors amongst the crowd), and we were given our room keys and ordered off into our small well kept white colonial rooms.

Unfortunately, this editor (plus Abdur, Taha and Mhd), upon entering their room (254), were immediately knocked out by a blast of stale air being produced from the room within.

The theory was then drawn up that this may be due to the fact that the room hadn't been used for an extremely long period of time, however, this editor was unable to continue further with the growing exciting discussion that was starting about this theory, as he was dragged out by a SimonNo. Various wheeling and deeling of where two peoples were rooming was then carried out, part of which can be found in Meng's account.

This all wasn't really important anyway, and I'm sure you're not to bothered to find out the outcome, so the time shall be fast forwarded a little; skipping the saga of large thick branches obtainal, the ensuing battle against an inanimate object that soon followed, the toxicity of the East Coast non-land area.

Dinner and food
We must say that the food at the Somerset Bay and Beach Colonial Resort was of the highest quality. All three editors, and the incredibly vast majority of our fellow year 13s, thoroughly enjoyed gorging upon the buffet food spread conveniently located in the dining area for us at dinner time 7.30pm and at all the other meal times we had during camp.

A Clement Chew was witnessed to indulge in five main courses, whereas your potentiallyfutureanorexic co-editors could only handle two main courses each, leaving space for a cup of tea and one sugar at the end, Clement Chew had three cups of coffee and one cup of tea at the end it must be said.

A Taste Sensation we must say. Although it mightn't have been the bestest elitemost of food that we've ever tasted, it certainly left us feeling quite full and satisfied after the respective meals, which must've been good. And was most definitely better than this poor as piss of an excuse for food:

soil

Camp food, even the cutlery tasted nice. Although a Stephanie Siow did experience a nauseaous experience.

Main day Saturday
It started off quite late for all of us, except for Yi Xuan Fariq and co, whom were eating breakfast way before anyone else.

unfortunately the wind had taken control over yixuan

One of the highlights of this camp for us (or rather, solely myself), was the brilliant gusting wind that blew in from the sea in the early mornings and late at night, enough wind to blow sand into your eyes, to lift your shirt swiftly off your back, and to transfer large portions of the beach into the swimming pool, but not enough to knock you back. Sort of like feeling one of Clement Chew's violent limb thrusts that always appear to just miss their target by fractions of a millimetre. Miracles, they are.

So, after an uneventful breakfast, which was a taste sensation. We were called into a small long meeting room with excessively oddly luxurious gold curtains. Here, Ellis explained various aspects of exam revision, the finer points of finding one's inner chakra through meditation, with the visual aid of technology through a dark blue powerpoint presentation.

Two of your honourable learned editors simultaneously engrossed themselves in the presentation, whilst constructing a pretty pathetic paper airplane each utilising the handily provided A4 white paper. 4m range

Afterwards, was a talk on etiquette by Cope. Then lunch that was a taste sensation.

Saturday Afternoon
Beach football, necklocks, wrestling melees, water polo in front of a silent audience, Chris Ho mauling, general fun all round.

Beach foootball, I gained a new fantastic appreciation of. Prior to playing the beach football, I was moaning on to a paki (no it's not racist is aussie racist) about how overrated and drastically shit and ankle and feet pain inducing football on the beach is, HOWEVER, upon wandering around, occasionally dribbling a football, and attempting to increase slide tackling acceleration on the proper well laid out beach football pitch, - despite the severely undulating ankle killing sand - beach football was as wholly agreed by your editors, an enormously enjoying limbs flailing experience.

Shame about the crowd for the football on beach though, commentator Rust made up for that a bit though. One downside of beach football though, is the sand literally murdered one's feet, leaving red incisions and pain all over.

After we all got tired of beach football at around 2pm, a dash to the pool and water polo excellence then commenced, Chris Ho quickly volunteering to act a replacement for the goalmouth. What surprised us was how long we actually played water polo for, pretty indeed long actually.

After that at mid afternoon:

Useless telematch. Not too sure why, although we're sure there's a wholly valid sensible and logical reason why we all got facepainted before the telematch started.

Not too sure what they're doing there..

Not too sure what they're doing there...

And there was a little valiant (a little pathetic intheend) attempt to sabotage Chris Ho Sandcastle and sandcastle next to us by rerouting our teams glorious irrigation channels towards such castles, and then breaking the dams to release the oddly sickly orange coloured seawater upon the sandcastles...

Perhaps your editors should not pursue careers in wheat agriculture and investment banking respectively as water irrigation engineering is the way forward, fate more like

Horror stories and fear and early morning beach wanderings
Night we had a dinner, a barbecue that was rained off by rainclouds. After that was Football in room 253 cause a rebellion had been staged with a refusal to watch football in the gold curtains conference room. Despite the three person capacity of room 253, all the proper men of the year were able to file into the room and watch the match/distracted by ds/play vernun narula in cards, plus a few well meaning girls came along as well.

Unfortunately the hotel management weren't Newcastle nor West Ham supporters and outrightly refused to change the channels over from espn to starsports at 11 o clock after the liverpool chelsea match. Several excitable young Indian men on bicycles behind the lobby refused to help either. Which was all a little shit I must say, despite the extrovertly orgasmic happiness of editor 3 and a VernonNarula after Liverpool's defeat of LeonJala Chelsea.

WHY AGAINST NEWCASTLE?
Why, the fuck why indeed.

11.30 pm, ensued out of nowhere a large group of female members of our year group, led by the righteous Aarti, descended upon the room of the dormant Christopher Ho (room 252). Minutes before hand, this editor was lambasted to be quiet in the corridor. This editor dulely obliged.

Afterward, a BT induced mass widespread fear into a group of several girls at around 1am.

Last day
Unfortunately, camp rushed by too fast for us. A supremely relaxed session of beach volleyball in the late hours of the morning was enjoyed highly by all involved. Nadhir teaching us all a strict lesson in volleyball, Yi Xuan's technique failing him. A final lunch at the hotel which was indeed also a taste sensation it must be said.

Screeching tyres and various damage to powered vehicles on the way back, in Tokyo Drift. A little better than the murder-inducing awful Head of State.

camp.
Really GOODDD

Sorry For The Delay

2007-01-15T20:34:00.000+08:00

Sorry For The Delay

We collectively, GISEYE, would like to endow you all with our INFINITE APOLOGIES, for the reason being our lack of any updates for a grand period of exactly one month. Or, if you’d rather not waste your time reading the material we write, we apologise for updating.

If you require an apology in person, we will only gladly oblige to provide one in verbal and physical form.

In other news, to have happened over the past month in no particular order (although there is an order, an inexplicable platonically romantic prize for who correctly guesses it)

Prom (we were, unfortunately, very wrong)
Disco Inferno
Interhouse Softball
Some mysterious Cheerleading sessions
Eid Ul Adha
Christmas
New Year (several members of our year enjoyed Souled Out, others, Karaoke, others, home)

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Not a Merry Christmas and Not a Happy New Year If You Are:

Not of the Christian faith
Following a different calendar
An enemy
Undergoing negative emotional difficulties
Unfortunate, Generally
Probably if you are emo as well

Picking up on a magician down, although we’re not too sure as to the definition of emo itself, we editors collectively reckon that being emo involves:

we reckon it involves being a person who wishes to gain attention from certain peoples or to make themselves part of a group as they cannot fit into society and involves secluding yourself from modern activities, and emotions such as being happy, and trying to act like you have some sort of super emotionally advanced brain - which enables them to achieve superbly extreme emotions - which they do not have

An almost certainly more reliable source defines emo as:

An entire subculture of people (usually angsty teens) with a fake personality. The concept of Emo is actually a vicious cycle that never ends, to the utter failing of humanity, and it goes something like this:

1. Girls say they like "sensitive guys" (lie)
2. Guy finds out, so he listens to faggy emo music and dresses like a dork so chicks will see that he is sensitive and not afraid to express himself (lie). He dyes his hair black, wraps himself in a stupid looking scarf, develops an eating disorder, and rants about how "nobody understands".
3. Now an emo guy, he meets Emo chick and they start dating, talking about how their well-off suburban lifestyles are terrible and depressing (lie)
4. Emo guy is just too much of a pussy. His penis is too small, he's too depressed to bathe, and has more mood swings than emo chick, and he doesn't even have a menstrual cycle. Emo chick dumps him, saying "It's not you, it's me." (lie) as she drives off with Wayne, the school jock and captain of the football team.
5. Emo guy goes home and cries, proceeds to write a weak song and strum a single string on his acoustic guitar. Another emo chick sees how he is so in touch with his feelings, and the cycle continues.

Being eloquently respectable editors, we don’t in truth understand the above. So to help clear things up, we pronounce the topic of this post as ‘Defining emo’ therefore please feel free to add your own definitions and various other general comments of a positive nature.

In fact, we’re getting quite irritated by the word ‘emo’ right around now, or perhaps you’re getting (as we are) annoyed at us, for our continuing discussion of that word, so we’ll stop, and instead start discussing about something else.

Filth aside, we feel that if you want to be something, then be it, after all, this is we believe, the time of your life where you learn what your personality, and character really is, so who’s to say what you should be? If you don’t understand that, then imagine a small hermit man living in an isolated acoustically-perfect cave, we don’t know how he appeared there, but that’s aside the point, point is, he’s got no one to tell him what kind of person he is, so is he of no kind? Kindless? Personalityless? Whether you want to become what we’ve been narrating above, gothic, ah-beng (Co-editor 1 may disagree violently with being this), ah lian, fashion-conscious, tall, or whatever really. It’s a free world. Air is free. Do what you want, when you want.

But emos really do...suck. honest. Come on get over yourself, prats

SONG

Which brings us nicely onto the subject that the band OK Go, with their song ‘Do What You Want’ (get it http://www.b3ta.cr3ation.co.uk/site/music-plus/), is the incredible most catchy and addictive of music. It’s community head-banging in the safety of our rooms and empty spaces in public areas-galore. hooked to that catchy guitar riff thing. Perhaps you think it’s overplayed, repetitive, meaningless lyrically mainstream rubbish. So as ever, it’s up to you as the reading public really.
We also liked the video.

In other news,

EXPLOSION

Recently we have witnessed with our own GISEYES, an explosion in blogs in the sixth form internet community.

Why, the sudden interest? Why, the sudden coming out? Why, following the crowd? We, utilizing the various statistical tools we have at hand, and after careful analysis, have come out with a number of severe consequences of the recent flaring up like a rash, of blogs:

Even more people getting blogs, up to a point where everyone in the year bar-none will own a blog, and then people will start getting two blogs each, or four each, posting about the days they could have had.
Those that don’t have blogs will form an anti-blog clan. And spam the facilities of current blog owners, whilst stirring up negative emotions and hatred towards them. Resulting in the downfall of several of the smaller weaker blogs, and
Someone posting something slightly indirectly inflammatory-ily pessimistic towards a member of the staff of our educational institution. Result being the closing down of all blogs. The few that survive will communicate with their viewers in paper or verbal form
Nothing

But aside from that ambiguous forecasting above, we all feel that the recent spate of an uprise in blogs, is all for the better. For the better of bringing our year closer together, as we get to know each other better, unless of course, all that is blogged about are cleverly constructed lies to mislead the general reading public; for giving bored sixth formers at home something to do; for giving us editors something to fill up our trivial lives with; various other currently mysterious social benefits, SHALL SOON BE REVEALED. TUNE IN NEXT TIME TO FIND OUT.

NECESSARY COMPLIMENTS

In fact, some, if not all, of the recent new blogs (Magician Down, Kit’s Abyss, Ann, that is all) to have gone public are of a high quality, better than this vagueencouraging-fest. We’ve been recently impressed with the intellectual eminence being produced non/representing our year. More please.

Other compliments must be directed at the cast and everybody involved with disco inferno, a recent audible and visual feast for all to enjoy. The performance was a success of a positive nature in all aspects for the 3 night duration that it ran (bar annoying elders who do not know the meaning of 'silent' function on phones). Congratulations to everyone involved once more and may there be more to come from our wonderful drama department!

It was very good. Several stamps of approval all round.

SEX

To CHEE MENG, it’s not rape it’s surprise sex. Not it’s not it’s rape. And rape is serious. And we at GISEYE wholeheartedly unequivocally oppose rape.

And on that fitting note, we end. but not forever, not like NO YOU'RE NOT BACK Andy’s blog (expected to make a glorious comeback).

Expect future updates in the future.

GIS Eye: Bringing you the latest in School Development.

2006-12-15T13:05:00.000+08:00

Time for our weekly "eyes" obtained from students around the school. We hope you will enjoy these two carefully taken photographs which depict our very material of being here.

Click on the photos for extremely large versions. Please do, we went to great lengths to provide you with these.

Co Editor 2's brilliant blue eyes. This photo was taken during a free period in the common room, and shows raised eyebrows at their greatest glory. Blue eyes have always been the "Pure" type of gene-unadulterated eyes, and also are becoming scarce by the day.

Year 8 correspondant and friend Sebastian Schellerer's excellent brown daubed with blue eye. This photograph was taken during the swim gala, when Co-Editor One decided to take a break from officialing in the races. Please focus on the centre of the eye, where there is a perfect shade of brown, and then move your gaze with your very own eyes to the side of the iris, where it then begins to be blended in with perfect symmetry.

We hope you've enjoyed the last photos of the year in G1S, and hope for your everlasting support for our little operation here.

Signing off, This is Co Editor One.

Stay safe.

How proud we are.

The Great Green Pool

2006-12-07T16:10:00.000+08:00

Due to our extreme inefficiency in time-management, we have enforced the notion of work delegation. Editor Clement Chew has decided to finally get off his arse and “work” on his assigned task: The Green Pool Review, with the lack of participation by Mr. Thomas Maxwell and Mr. Ben Bradley (who kindly submitted one, solitary photo).

As most of the students of G1S are aware of, our very beloved pool was in a state of green dishevel a little over a month ago. Your editors noticed this as well, and decided to create an article about this. Now, a lot of discussion has been undertaken on whether it’s really of detriment to the school, and of condescendence, to post such an article about the bad state of the swimming pool. For awhile, your hardworking editors were at a dead end.

And then, fortune was bestowed upon us by the curing of the pool. We witnessed a transition from green algae infested pool to the cool blue that we always saw. Co-editor One, with his lower-secondary contacts nearly rivaling Co-editor Two’s, managed to conduct an impromptu interview with the individual below. Bear in mind that these two photos were taken at different times, once before the curing of the pool, and then the second after the curing of the pool.

Our Pool In It's Great Green Glory. Chancellor for the win!

Before

Please state your name for the record.

GERMANY RULEZ!!!

What are your views on the disgusting slime and filth that is our pool at the moment?

Thanks for the curry fries. I think that it is appalling that the school should allow the pool to enter such a state. I hate having to inhale algae every single time I enter the pool. It’s despicable, and I’m sure that every single member of the student population agrees with my opinion. If they don’t…

*At this point, the editor had to back off for a few seconds, after noticing a certain red aura being emanated from the eyes (See what we did there) of this individual*

Okay, okay. Thanks for your time, sir. We shall contact you within a week in order to follow up with the interview.

No problem at all. Just bring me more fries from Buddies next ti… OOPS!! I mean…I now need to brace myself for the worst journey of my life: wading through the green that lies ahead of me.

Two weeks passed, and our pool was then cured by the diligent workers of our school. Hooray!

Our Bloo Pool is restored

After

Greetings, sir.

Hey dude. Have you got my fri…. OUCH! I mean, Hey I’m fine, thanks.

Now that the school has returned our pool back to its former glory, how do you feel now about the complexity of the issue?

This is superb work by the school! I never would have thought that the school authorities would act so quickly in restoring our pool. Now, if only we had had that change implemented before our only swimming lesson for the term, the positive externality effect would have been multiplied, net social benefit maximized. Now I can see clearly underwater and look at the g… at… oh, nothing.

We’re glad to hear that.

So am I.

Thank you so much for your time, may you enjoy years of clear blue chlorine infused water.

Why thank you. I shall ensure that I will.

By the way, nice haircut.

Go to hell. I didn’t wanna do this. My mom forced me to go to the barbers. Why you…

Okay, okay. We shall leave you in peace.

Give me my chips now!!

*At that point, co-editor one retreated to the safe vestiges of the sixth form common room. One can only hope that this vengeful German individual managed to find peace wherever he is now.*

Now that everything seems to be in order, we hope you enjoyed this relatively late piece of work, and look forward to serving you in the future. Credits go to Mr. Sebastian Schellerer of Year Eight for daring to show his face online. Signing off, this is Co-editor One. Stay Safe. And we hope your life goes swimmingly.

The Good, The Bad, and the Lee Weng Yew

2006-11-30T19:44:00.000+08:00

26^th November 2006, Tuesday.

Venue: Sixth Form Computer Room in Lounge.

Time: 8.30am.

The gallant editors of GISEYE decided to make today a suitable date for a couple of interviews, to update our blog, and partly to get our sorry behinds off the couch of daily life.

The first person who was interviewed is a very eccentric person indeed, and may only be judged by his superior intelligence, based on empirical evidence and theses that he has not even deduced yet. Below is the interview that your daring editors… well… dared to do.

FROM THE EYES (see what we did there!) OF WENG YEW NOT GOING TO PROM

What are you known as?
Clement. You can’t say this in your blog...

Are you taking part in the prom this year?
Not at all.

What are the grounds of your decision not to partake in the prom this year?
For that kind of money, I could comparably spend my time better. For example, I could get better food and not waste hours doing nothing at prom. And if everyone realized that, we could all just go out and have our own get together and spend our time more enjoyably.

Where?
Undecided. Anywhere beats prom. From past record, all the proms have been very extremely disappointing disappointing.

Would you say that those who attend are ignorant, such as Ben Bradley and Clement Chew?
They are not maximising their utility due to ignorance and irrationality. Partly a result of peer pressure. For example, a man called Verun agreed that prom is very boring but that the after prom party will be extremely fun. The irony of that statement is why don’t you just take that 120 and spend it on an after prom party during prom, thereby getting better food and not having to spend the entire night listening to crappy performances.

Black Shirt Mondays?
No. they are the highlight of an otherwise dull evening.

So will we expect you at this after prom party?
No. the after prom party will be too late. If I go to prom, I will be stuck with some of the pesky lower years.

Our next interviewee, is a somewhat frivolous lady from class 13S, who has kindly consented to this little interview. She has even provided a photo for us to use, albeit it being a side-profile, which shall appear may in the future.

FROM THE EYES (see what we did there again) OF ELAINE IS GOING TO PROM

What is your name?
Elaine Lai. Ben thinks he’s so funny. Maybe I should change my name to Elaine Truth.

Are you going to the prom?
Yes.

Despite several statements by unscrupulous people, what are your reasons for going to the prom?
I guess to spend time with my friends, especially Yun, cos she’s leaving. Verun will be a traffic guy holding Yun’s plane back.

Why did you originally plan not to go to prom?
Well you see, before this, I went to SEASAC, which cost 1700 ringgit and then camp, which is going to cost 400 ringgit. That’s already quite a lot of money.

Wouldn’t 120 ringgit justify the glory of being with your friends?
That’s why I’m going.

What is your opinion on such people such as Weng Yew who said that we are ignorant people to attend prom?
Oh my gosh! He sounds a bit radical. Just because people are going to prom doesn’t mean that they’re ignorant.

Do you think that the statement that an after prom party will be better than the prom itself is true?
It is more exclusive.

Do you think peer pressure is one of the main causes of people going to the prom?
No.

Are you asking anyone to prom?
No.

Thanks for your time.
You’re welcome. That was a useful waste of my time.

Both interviewees offered to pay vast amounts of money for the privilege of getting interviewed by GISEYE, however as humble, honourable, gifted and supremely talented editors, we declined the offers and instead would just like to say a short word of gracious thanks to both our interviewees Lee Weng Yew and Elaine Lai.

Guest Writer ‘I enjoy short days’ Ben Bradley says:
Yes our interviews were methodical, and weren't rather funny, but with calls from persons that a proper blog is one that updates everyday, we have little choice but to fill up this online column with this sort of filth. In particularly this short aside. Apologies. Take break and return five minutes later to continue reading alternative reading materials. May we suggest, the cleverly named ‘Zimo’ by Zim, or the mysterious surrealism malingerer ‘ohsoimba’ (Yi Xuan claims he is a fan) by Rusty, or the noble knowledge-based Weng Yew fansite ‘kingandee’ by Andy, or indeed, finally, quite the supreme overlord of Sixth Form blogging ‘The Great Blogging Experiment’ by Weng Yew.

Prom 2007 – A Preview

2006-11-28T09:10:00.000+08:00

With your writers having a combined Prom experience of over well over 1560 minutes, we find ourselves in the unenviable position of having a deep murky pool of knowledge to suck from, in this our official Preview of Prom 2007; which is generally fecally plenary.

Precisely hosted by the Sheraton Imperial this year. For the knowledge-based nonpossessors, the word ‘Prom’, can take on a variety of meanings, as usefully carefully listed forewidth, cautious scrutiny of each particular definition has led us to come to the debatable conclusion that our Prom 2007 may indeed quite possibly be referring to the first definition, although up to the time of publishing, your enigmatically excitingly editors have still yet to reach a final deduction. Clement 'Cannot Control Own Limbs' Chew being the source of all confusion.

a formal dance, esp. one held by a high school or college class at the end of an academic year
memory hardware that can be programmed only once
acronym stands for premature rupture of membranes and means a woman's water has broken early

We believe that Proms are very big in America.

“The most important ocassion in one’s life including marriage and childbirth.”

As we extravagantly described earlier, the Sheraton Imperial is where we expect a large proportion of our educational establishment’s population to congregate at; 6.30pm, the eve of the Prom.

Right, what will definitively happen on the day of the Prom is:
6.45 – your editors arise from positions of slumber
7.40 – students begin arriving in school
7.42 – chairs are laid out in Grand Hall for a variety of school day events
7.55 – Lee Weng Yew walks into class
7.55 – upper secondary school-wide discussion on Prom begins
7.56 – Lee Weng Yew walks out of class
8.00 – whole school’s excitement stimulation levels increase by a factor of 10 upon learning that it is the last day of term
8.10 – lessons start
8.15 – secondary school-wide concentration levels dip, continuing on a negative exponential curve fall (math joke, for all the math fans) for the rest of the school day
9.25 – short break starts, food eaten
9.45 – short break ends
9.45 – various rebellious secondary school students congregate in L-floor toilets
9.46 – various rebellious secondary school students leave L-floor toilets
9.47 – Further Mathematics lesson starts (Zim, Menzie, Coin, Anisha, Weng Yew and Yun Jung – greetings of a higher nature)
10.15 – end of term assembly commences
11.30 – all peoples attending Prom asked to stay back to be issued guidelines on the night. Whilst issuing, several people have out of body experiences.
1.00 – all Prom-goers start their lengthy preparations
5.00 – drivers fill cars with C21H30O2 (petrol)
5.30 – first eager individuals arrive
6.15 – first sensible individuals arrive, first b*tching starts about what others sauntering through the large-expansive-transparent-glass-reinforced-entrance-doors have hanging off their expansive backs
6.59 – individuals who consider themselves the most important and popular, arrive
7.00 – after the mass congregating of Prom-goers having saturated the hotel lobby, leaving there little space for movement and the air becoming increasingly thin as the horizontally gifted take in deep breaths, endangering the lives of everyone, a single small slight Prom committee female instructs everyone in attendance to venture downwards toward the Grand Ballroom. This consequently results in mass hysteria, as the larger, unwashed, sweating members of the upper secondary community lumber onward; several small-to-medium sized individuals get trampled in the process; a number of small individuals get crushed, never to walk on the face of this earth possibly again; nevertheless individuals of the scrawny nature somehow manage to squeeze their ways in front, and hurtle their lanky bone-protruding frames forward, elbowing repeatedly the unfortunate average student (such as your endowed editors); several individuals rupture their spleens; two persons achieve unconscious states; five individuals bleed internally; the scrawny folk and the great unwashed venture, closely followed by the slowing horizontally-gifted of the school community’s members - toward the immense pine with a slight shade of oak entrance accesses to the Grand Ballroom.

And then some essays are recited by the upper members of the echelons of the school, followed by the dimming of light-emitting-strobes, the serving of food, the playing of performances of the musical variety, the clearing of uneaten food, lights turned off, complete darkness resulting in mass hysteria, several individuals unknowingly stab themselves in the face with forks, then proceed to stab their friends with such items, Clement Chew commences piano recital – or if he hasn’t passed the auditions allowing him to; removes the next performer/s and commences playing anyway - several people moan in ecstasy as a result.

Remember, you heard it from us first.

Vital facts:
Chances of hotel disappearing: 1 in 580
Chances of nobody turning up: 1 in 635
number of chairs: 480
number of balloons: 960
Chances of there being a clown performance upon arrival:
what the fk Clement.

We apologise for the overwhelming sh*teness of such a Preview. As (remarkably), this is the first one we’ve ever done. Our actual plan for this blog and for sixth form wide domination, is to start off really rubbish, and then get better over time. Rather than starting off really well and then getting more rubbish as time progresses. Discuss this erratically using our comments system (because we’re jealous of Blog Weng Yew getting way more comments than us). Actually, don’t, because it means more work for our resident moderator of comments, Maxwell.

Pushing this sh*tness aside with a large shovel, at least there's some Prom-related interviews coming up.

School item carrier levitation

2006-11-20T16:07:00.000+08:00

Weng Yew In Schoolbag Shocker!

Also alternatively known as bag-gate; the stage was set this morning’s short break, where a Mr. ‘Nargh’ Lee Weng Yew (Weng) conducted a potentially criminal act of heinous circumstances of illicitly genius proportions. Indeed, if your righteous law-abiding editors were to ever implement-our-cunning-plan-for-sixth-form-wide-domination start a criminal organisation, this astute and expressively exceedingly clever young man would be the first person we would unite with.

Bent elbow helpfully pointed out, and laughed at by both persons on the further right of this photo

Thirty degree angle and circular arc formed as onlookers look on in awe

The tree attempts to suck in arms.

Weng Yew is actually levitating in this photo

Final adjustments made

An all round success in a positive nature!

We’ve heard reports that what happened above, in what was quite possibly the most happening happening in the history of that area of land outside the Further Math classroom (esteemed greetings of an uplifting nature to all current Further Math students. we expect a greeting in return), actually did not take place at all. That instead, some idiots cum scum (Colin Say and Ben Bradley), displaced the honourable Weng Yew’s (much infinite thanks for letting us use your photographic representations in this report and for being a good sport) bag from its place on a bench up into the lower levels of that tree, in an ‘Idiots put schoolbag in tree’ shocker of a news report.

Clement Chew, is looking into this.

Aarti and Kit.

2006-11-07T19:10:00.001+08:00

Okay, after much thought, we have decided to post the much disputed video of Kit and Aarti's melee in the common room. Please enjoy but also give much condolences to Aarti because she was very against this being broadcasted. Sorry, but the world has to go round. It's our video, we apologise again.

Weng Yew came out for this.

Signing off,

A Fortnight Ago In Photos

2006-11-06T21:12:00.001+08:00

It has been quite some time since the half-term holidays began and ended, and all of us are really feeling none-the-better knowing that school is back. Of course, all three editors were extremely hardworking, nosy and entrepreneurial before that time. As two of the editors are currently unavailable, see post below, Co-Editor One shall try his very best to entertain the very loyal patrons of this column and the energetic students of G1S. As usual, click on the photographs in order to view a larger resolution.

The images obtained by the high-definition light absorbing device otherwise known as the camera are the joint effort of all the editors together. Well, actually, they were taken during a lazy Thursday just before half-term started. Behold:

The photo above shows, in clockwise motion, Russell Chen, Julian Surname Unknown (apologies), Owen Bendor-Samuel, a certain Chris Ho in the background, Harry Amos reclining on our high quality chairs, a bored Nadhir Kamarudin and finally, a stylish posing Jackson Au posed in purple. An excellent looking IBM Laptop sits on the table on the far right of the photo, and a very well-decorated interior of what is known as the Sixth Form Common Room.

The photo above depicts four characters otherwise known as Zi-Wen, who very kindly offered me a little of her drink, Kit Perry, Owen Bendor-Samuel and a half-shrouded character whom we have no clue. The person whom the glasses in front of the device belongs to is none other than Nadhir Kamarudin. Although it is not visible from this angle, the object of their attention is the chessboard; participants are Kit Perry and Julian Surname Unknown. It was a very close match, but Kit Perry eventually emerged champion. Victorious words from Kit included:

“GG NO RE!”

“I Owned you okay.”

We apologize for the (Lack off) quality of the photos, but Editor One was very uncertain about the image-obtaining device at that time, oblivious to the fact that it actually required the Flash to be on in order to be effective. Readers are spared the torture in the following photos.

This photo, taken some moments after the last, shows one of our Enhanced Intellectuals, Weng Yew, and our hyperactive Aarti Samtani, whose features have been excluded due to personal reasons. It is unclear of their actions, but they appear to be Thumb-Wrestling. Aarti, of course, won hands…. Err… thumbs down due to the fact that she possessed double joints in her limbs. A look of excruciating pain (or is it mirth) is visible on Joel’s face as he tries unsuccessfully to bend Aarti’s arm. Better luck next time, Joel Lee Weng Yew!

This photograph of Co-Editor One, the owner of the Image-obtaining device was taken by none other than the person above, who was finger-wrestling earlier with Aarti. Nothing much to see here, except that the foot in the background belongs to Muhammad Fariq.

After a long interval, Mr. Perry got it into his head to decorate Aarti’s clothes as well, with a huge permanent marker. This is the aftermath of Kit’s actions. As you can see, Aarti is questioning Mr. Perry’s motive of redecorating her outfit, and Mr. Perry is attempting to justify his somewhat inhumane act. What happened next is rather hilarious.

Eventually, it got heated to such a point that Mr. Perry was forced to make a quick traversal through the door of the Sixth Form common room, nearly clipping the photo of our beloved deceased Khairul Salim. Here, Aarti is vigilant as she awaits his return. A tentative Mr. Perry can be observed eyeing his victim-turned-predator. Zi-Wen may be seen observing the scenario.

Suffice to say, there was a video recorded of it, but due to unforeseen consequences along with the disapproval of Miss Samtani, there is doubt as to whether the clip shall ever see the light of day. Well, we hope you have enjoyed the brief insight into last Thursday’s scenario in the common room. Below is an unrelated photo that has no other place to be slotted into.

This was actually discovered on google picture search of "Eyes + Close-up". There is nothing more we can say about the clarity of this picture, except that it is depicted excellently. The person who owns this Nikon Camera must feel exuberantly proud with himself for obtaining such a glorious photograph. Now if we only had such a camera...

Production Halted For Time Being

2006-11-02T20:17:00.000+08:00

Don't Worry, we're not gone... yet.

Due to recent events, ahem, SEASAC, which two of the three editors are currently attending, there shall be no updates for the next four days. We shall, of course, continue to please patrons to this site by providing random periodic updates as time goes.

If you are unaware of our production process, here it is.

1. Editors brainstorm.
2. The work actually gets done. Equipment include Camera Phones and Digital Cameras (We have yet to include photos from this mass media device)
3. Editors type up report. There will be no dispute over who does what. Editor One scrutinises reports and provides relevant support and approval for postage.
4. Editor in question posts report.
5. Readers enjoy Article.

An Alternative Approach would be.

1. Editors Brainstorm.
2. Individual projects are set out, if an editor becomes ambitious.
3. Work gets done. (Editor is on their own, but may call for additional backup if required.)
4. Editor types up report.
5. Editor submits article to Editor One for Approval.
6. Post appears on column cumblog.

Now, if you may have noticed, co-editor Clement is left in solitary because of the SEASAC. The editor, of course, has output from all the mass-media throughout the week, but requires both advice, proofreading and approval from other editors. Therefore, without this essential help, production cannot continue. It is with great regret that this editor states that valuable students of GIS shall have to yet again endure a long wait for the next article.

Till next time (Monday.), this is temporary.

Signing off, This is Co-Editor One. (Click for bigger photo of this editor's handsome self.)

Our new fashion spreads...

2006-10-31T20:31:00.000+08:00

As you can see, our latest fashion craze is slowly, akin to a small hairless rodent, sweeping the school. One of our colleagues was spotted in this state earlier today.

We hope to change opinions, change looks as we change hearts and change lives in the process.

Public Conveniences Review 2007 (III of II)

2006-10-24T20:54:00.000+08:00

We greet you in good tidings, as at the time of writing, it is now the mid-term holidays! As there’s much celebrating and merriment to have, we would like to take this opportunity to wish all our Indian readers a Happy Deepavali, and to all our Muslim readers, a Selamat Hari Raya, and to our Chinese readers, a Precursory Gong Xi Fa Cai. As your highly-sophisticated and cultivated editors have only one sole unified aim in life – aside from seeking the source of eternal coolness (we’re very close) – that is to meet the pleas of the general public in matters; we can now present to you the final part of our Toiletry Facilities Review 2007.

#7 New Building 5^th Floor PC

Drinks fountain for the dehydrated.

Description: four floors above the level of the basement of the fantastic addition to the infrastructure of the area. In an attractive location with, we are quite sure what must be a spectacular view; to entertain this toilet, proceed along a ~~dark and dusty~~ well-lit corridor, and utilise the entry mechanism to swing the door, to then experience this toilet facility. Quick and handy (right-handed, as left will offend certain races) tip: when approaching from the lift area staircases - we condone the utilisation of lifts by students of year 11 and below - advance straight for a 63% more early and enjoyable release.

There is no need for further photos, as this cleverly encapsulates the whole vicinity.

We do not know how this got here as it contradicts our above statement.

Quality: Fine, fine-dining, fine-wining; whatsoever fine you wish to use; we remark that this facility is particularly well fine. Here’s just a rundown of what you might be expecting to meet: fully-packed toilet-roll dispensers, well-functioning taps, frictionless ceramic sinks, ergonomic urinals, abundantly reflective mirrors, possibly military grade secure locks for cubicles; just a smattering of what you’ll be experiencing.
Rating: 4/5

#8 New Building Ground Floor PC

Artwork was placed in anticipation of our arrivals

Description: round the back of the new block, chances are you’ll be greeted by joyous cheers from merry scholars from the nursery, who create abundances of happiness and merriment from the hall opposite this PC. As a result of the vast array of artwork on display, your mind is instantly soothed and relaxed when approaching, and put into a state of gentle sub-consciousness. (Careful, you may even perhaps lose complete consciousness. Collapse onto the marble floor rupturing all ligaments, splitting your skull in six predefined places, and blood losses rapidly!) Which wouldn’t be well good. Therefore. It is advised to travel to this toiletry facility with a fellow member of the community.

Well-defined shadows given off by the reflection device

If you look closely, there’s a hole in the wall on the right. And we don’t know what it’s there for.

Quality: Just a little small. Like an attractive small canine. I’ve run out of things to put down. I swear we heard soft background music whilst inside.
Rating: 5/5 debate this

And that’s it really. Probably a 100% in English Language comprehension for this, as we reckon we comprehend English pretty well. In fact, perfectly. So if any avid readers of this dissertation fancy some help with their English Homework, let us know of it and your essay titles, and we’ll try our best to provide the perfect naturally support.

Well, thus concludes our insightful and sensual insight into the PC’s of our institution. We believe they have been examined to the utmost and given every attention to detail they require, hoping to the fullest that you have enjoyed the review and are now 150% more knowledgeable and capable on the various strings of quality shared by the available facilities. Stay tuned for more glorious and splendid projects,

(Our next project is to simultaneously flush all the toilets in the campus at exactly the same time, to record the sound produced, and replace a potential willing participant's voicebox with that same sound, only, slightly remanifested, so to mimic the call of a small train passing over a gravelled surface shaped similar to that of the tracks used in train transportations industries, of which there are many, and a lute may be included as well, whatever the latitudinal location of fire and brimestone and little red men that may be of inclusiveness occurance.)

On that note we would like to say thank you and goodbye.

Public Conveniences Review 2007 (II of II)

2006-10-17T17:34:00.000+08:00

A good toilet may be defined as a clean, complete, and properly used public convenience. It not only requires the hard work and dedication in the issue of public health awareness, leading to a benefit of the welfare of future would-be users of the PC. Here is the second part of our review on the Public Conveniences of our wonderful campus.

#5 Male toilet outside sports hall.

Very conspicuous position.

Description: This PC was relatively average in conditions and performance. This is due to several reasons. Firstly, we cannot further emphasise the extremely conspicuous location of the PC, which leads to a belaying sense of insecurity when patronising this PC. Notice the double areas of entry into the PC; from the primary canteen by the staircase and from where Mr. Bradley is posted, leading from the main hall.

A well kept, neat, tidy, squeaky clean PC. Notice the cleaning utensils.

Quality: Upon entering, the patron is duly rewarded for trusting this particular PC by the vision of a smooth, white, toilet seat, plentiful supplies of toilet paper, and no filth whatsoever on the walls and the floor. One may think that this PC has seen the very least of occupants, not to say the very least a lone educator or a primary school student who has urgent pressing business. On to the next figure.

Conveniently placed soap and *gasp* no cockroaches!

There is not much more that we can possibly add to this clean, relatively small, wonderfully decorated PC (observe the colouring of the tiles.). Other than its relatively dangerous position which is prone to entrance from both sides of the corridor, we give this PC a tentative thumbs-up.

#6. The Changing Rooms PC.

Behold, the ONLY changing room in this block

There are plenty of negative comments which are to follow about this particular PC cum Changing Room, and the state of the door is the very least of it. Description: Located opposite the DT labs and in the middle of the corridor adjoining the two canteens, this particular PC disgusts us to some extent.

No, it's not just the rust that we're ticked off with.

No joke, there is nothing visible on the knob of the door except apparently shiny, silver metal. However, it is the invisibles that we are concerned about. This editor walked into this PC one fine Wednesday, and in the process of washing his hands, heard a lone Year Five step up onto the large metal urinal beside the sinks, and begin doing his business. The editor continued to soap up his hands and eliminate them of all blemishes when suddenly, the Year Five (A Blonde Haired Bloke with Grey Knee Length Shorts) pulled up his shorts, and rushed out of the toilet, without making any inherent attempt to rid his claws of all microbes and filth. The editor stood his ground for five seconds, before deciding to exit through the changing rooms, where a horde of unruly, smelly Year Eights were shedding their skins and replacing them with varying colours of red, yellow, purple and green.

If this PC is treated in this particular manner, how can patrons of this PC piss in peace, knowing that more than one unwashed hand has descended on that metal object above? For other forms of information on how to safely extricate yourself from this quagmire, feel free to browse Weng Yew's column cumblog.

Tissue paper and mirrored thumbs down.

Quality: As you can see, a wad of tissue paper, presumably used for you-know-what, has been discovered beneath the inconveniently placed soap dispenser. If the reader observes the photo with more scrutiny, he/she may find a strangely shaped object hanging from the light in the background.

No, it's not a trick of the light.

A stream of tissue paper, presumably damp (unascertained, due to concerns to personal health and safety) hangs from the fluorescent, metal light, causing inconvenience to occupants by the sound of its dripping and the risk of being splattered by the malicious drops. A pack of brown powder whose contents were not acquired and analysed rests on the top of the cubicles.

Surprisingly Clean.

If there was such a thing as a "redeemer", the changing rooms would more than suit the mould. Contrary to the PC, the changing room receives a moderate thumbs (Neither up nor down.). We feel that this rating is necessary, as we have not included it amongst other ratings, therefore its inclusion is rather justified, rather.

It's not what you think it is.

In Conclusion, this particular PC is an exampled specimen to all the loyal students of this educational institution. The picture above shows the transference of outside elements, e.g. mud into the complex, and this is the result of an over-excitable younger year. Drastic improvements in the form that students of the educational community have to be made in order for this PC to become inhabitable again by the BOTH the needy and the luxurious.
Rating: 1/5 (The Changing Rooms boosted its reputation, but maybe we're just being too kind.)

And THAT, ladies and mostly gentlemen, almost concludes our report of the habitable and uninhabitable Public Conveniences in our wonderful institution. New building toilets may appear soon as well. Be prepared for our next projects, which are numerous and just as entirely unnecessary as this escapade.

We hope you have enjoyed our meagre presentation of PCs in our institution and found some assistance in doing the complicated business of Bowel Movement. Cheers.

Public Conveniences Review 2007 (I of II)

2006-10-12T17:58:00.000+08:00

Be upstanding for, presenting, conveniently, our official review and guide to the public conveniences (PCs) of our school. Firstly, a PC, also known by Americans as a bathroom, or by the French as la toilette, is helpfully defined by Wikipedia as:

A toilet is a plumbing fixture and a disposal system primarily intended for the disposal of the bodily wastes; urine, fecal matter, vomit and menses. Toilets additionally accept a paper product known as toilet paper. Other objects may cause blockages in the plumbing.

Yi Xuan Woo has also helpfully defined a toilet as:

GG XD toilet is just toilet man tandas GG

Conveniently utilising our well honed skills in photography, walking, entering, leaving, and our precise knowledge of the school's layout plans, and of vertical posture, we set about in developing a dissertation. Each toilet has undergone careful scrutiny and has been run over by a metaphysical fine toothcomb. We hope to cumulate in the most satisfying toiletry experience for our readers when frequenting GIS.

#1 Sixth Form

Symmetrical cubicle designing

Adequate statuatory space

All-round success in a positive manner

Description: located on the lowermost floor of the secondary school, directly opposite the sixth form common room, the SFPC is probably the more frequently used on PCs by the sixth form, and by the occasional handyman technician and random bus driver. However, it is rarely used by other members of the school.
Quality: usually decent overall, although water does appear in certain areas of the floor due to pipe blockages. A noticeable lack of sinks is glaringly evident, contributing to excessive colonies of bacteria on the entrance door handle, such that the door handle looks soiled and rusted in appearance. Defamatory students trying to enter locked cubicles while failing miserably have corroded most of the door locks with coins.
Rating: 4/5

#2 L Floor

Dangerous obstacles block path and route

Helpfully placed wash facilites

Unpleasant stained community standing urinal

Outcome was not good

Description: found on the science floor of the secondary school, adjacent to the science teacher's workroom; the LPC is one of the more heavily used toilets in the secondary school, due to the irrational sociological reasoning of many a student that going down from the G floor to urinate is easier and faster than going up the F Floor PC.
Quality: on the academic side of things, probably the more unpleasant of toilets. Used as a hangout base for rebellious students just after short break. The LPC has a high, swift turnover rate with it being extremely busy at short breaks, and as such, one often feels rushed when entering the vicinity, which is not too pleasant.
Rating: 1.5/5

#3 G Floor

Encountering initial difficulty in entering possibly well-guarded entrance

Hands will now be breathtakingly 150% cleaner

Glorious

Glorious

Description: staff toilet. Used by staff.
Quality: the best toilet in the secondary school by a metre rule of physics teacher. It posses porcelain urinals, and a spiffingly sweet scent fills the air upon enterance. In contrast to the L floor toilets, the floors are crystal clean, and actually reflect small objects: such as coins and pencil lead. The utter brilliance of this toilet cannot be expressed enough of. If we had one wish in life, it would be that our toilets would be as nice as this; an obvious guarantee.
Rating: 4.5/5

#4 S Floor

Somewhat cleverly hidden door

All the required utensils were present

Massively unusual abstract design

A worthy thumbs up in the end

Description: top floor of the secondary school, frequented by a couple of teachers, ICT technicians, and the odd student. One of the indie toilets due to its distancing from the rest of the public conveniences.
Quality: honestly, pretty decent. Its remote location means that one's ears are mostly filled with silence, and therefore, strong, silent types are encouraged. No urinals here. The exterior of the toilet is usually exposed to the full force of the sun, this has the effect upon entering this toilet, of partially blinding you, as the inside lacks sufficient ambiance light.
Rating: 3.5/5
