However it is always better to be present on sunday to do the learning together as well. =) Thank you so much! Please collect all receipts for any purchases made.

For Southeast Asia Tarling's 2 relevant books are on sale at popular at 32.50 each There will be a make up for SEA tutorial make up that was supposed to happen on Wednesday Another make up tutorial is required for international History. Please hand in your history tutorial if you have not done so. Joel Sunday, April 19, 2009 Y 12:05 PM Hi guys, this post is only relevant to those in my history tutorial group, which is Aleena, Jeannie, Amy, Jia Xin, Emma and Julianne. A gentle reminder, our history presentation is TOMMORROW. " How far can the developements between 1945-1948 sustain the contention that Soviet Union was systematically exectuing its master plan to spread Soviet Union Communism worldwide?" Mr Yoong wants this done in powerpoint presentation. Since we have seven people, I suggest that four of you do the slides, and two people present. Those four who are doing the slides, please email me your slides by 9pm today so I can add on, edit and compile. Email to elizabethsusanjoseph@gmail.com I suggest Aleena and Amy present, and the rest of us do the slides. However, if you guys are unhappy with doing the slides and wanna present instead (and vice versa), please find someone within the group who is willing to swop with you, and then let me know (so I know who to stalk if I don't receive their email, lol) So Emma, Julianne, Jia Xin and Jeannie, if you all are ok with doing the slides, please do about 2-3 slides each and then email to me tonight so I can add on my own stuff and edit also. As for Amy and Aleena, if you all are ok with presenting, I'll send you the final presentation before 11pm, so you can familiarize yourself with the powerpoints slides so you know what to present and come up with your scripts etc. I know 11pm is rather late, so I suggest you read up on lecture 5 to familiarize yourself with the topic, then do your script in school tomorrow. If there's anything you need to ask, do call/sms me at 64625573/97985885. If there are any other suggestions, do post them up here or sms us to let us know. One last thing, can we stay back for a short while after Mr Yoong's tutorial for a short while? I think we really need to discuss a better system to do our tutorials in the future. Enjoy whatever is left of the weeked! :) Love, Liz <3 Saturday, April 18, 2009 Y 9:27 PM Hey all, Ms Zhou will be on course on Monday so she won't be in school, but she will upload work onto Moodle TOMORROW. Please print out the work she uploads and bring it to class on Monday, i'm supposed to collect it by the end of that lesson so you guys really have to bring it ok! :) I also informed Ms Zhou that quite a number of us haven't received the new PW PI template yet, so she's extending the deadline to Tuesday, latest Wednesday. This means all of us MUST get the template from Jeremy by Monday so that we can meet the deadline. Also take note that our Lit Lecture on Monday will be extended by half an hour, so it'll be 5.30pm to 7p.m. Remember to PREPARE for the lesson so that everything will go smoothly and we won't have to do any more make-ups ok! :) And as always, CCAs take precedence over this lesson. Let me know in advance if you can't make it. One more thing... All those who have CCAs that fall on MONDAY or TUESDAY afternoon/evening, please let me know! I have to compile a list of names. Either tag on the tagboard or sms me ok? This is really important because I have to send Ms'K the list by Monday. Thanks guys :) God Bless, Amy Friday, April 17, 2009 Y 8:51 PM Hey guys! URGENT!

Hope to get your responses soon =D Enjoy your long weekend! See ya all on monday!!! =) Jodie Wednesday, April 8, 2009 Y 1:11 PM About GeePee... Functions of Marriage - Are they still relevant today? Large situations of failing marriages...WHY?
FUNCTIONS OF MARRIAGE: Emotional Support:
Marriage as Commitment:
Procreation:
Societal Benefits/Expectations:
Conferment of Rights (Legal):
Practical Reasons:
Are these truly relevant? e.g Legal rights - Married couples enjoy as many as 1,400 rights automatically conferred upon them like
But does it mean that if you're not married you can't have e.g Joint parenting?
e.g Emotional support - What about Co-habitation??
e.g Marriage as commitment
e.g Procreation - Is it a must to get married to HAVE BABIES?
MARRIAGE THROUGH THE TIMES....
With all the hard work comes the birth of an essay.... Is it still relevant? take a second, think about it. Hey lovely 09A07, do check the MOODLE page aite for the slides from THE GEEPEE tutor. Hope the notes help ((: <3 jannah Monday, April 6, 2009 Y 11:12 PM As of now, the HOMEWORK LIST seems to be pretty long (and depressing.)
jans Y 8:40 PM Hey guys :) Here are the groupings for the "Features of comedy and farce" assignment for Lit. (BELOW this long post is Alex's post on the needs of assignment!) Group 1 (INDUCTION) ------------------------------ Jannah Joyene Elizabeth Asyraf Group 2 (ACT 1) -------------------- Joel Jia xin Timothy Jodie Kevin Group 3 (ACT 2) -------------------- DJ Alex Nicholas JT Reshveen Group 4 (ACT 3) --------------------- Kelley Leanne Jeannie Sian Pei Group 5 (ACT 4) --------------------- Amy Fatimah Weng Keong Samuel Group 6 (ACT 5) -------------------- Shahera Aleena Teri Julianne Emma --- If there are any problems with the groupings let me know! Take note that the maximum number of slides is 25, so the breakdown per group is an average of 3 slides. You don't have to worry about the slides for now, but just pick out the most relevant and good examples from the Act that you are assigned to, and explore how they are used for comedic value in the play. 3x6=18 slides, and then the remaining 7 can be used for spillovers (although we should try to avoid this!) and other things, like defining comedy and farce and also for visuals and external examples. We are supposed to come up with the timeline by this Wednesday and I don't have anything definite for now, but I was thinking along the lines of this: There are exactly 4 weeks and 2 days from the 8th of April till the 8th of May, so we'll use that as a guideline ok? TENTATIVE TIMELINE ----------------------------- 8 April -15 April: Familiarise yourselves with the Act that is assigned to your group 15 April - 23 April: By this week, you should have already drawn out the examples that you want to use to demonstrate features of comedy and farce in the play. Start preparing the slides. 23 April - 29 April: Complete the slides for the Act that your group is assigned to. By this week, we should all also compile the slides and start to familiarise ourselves with all the other groups' slides. 29 April - 6 May: Besides the 3 slides that you prepared for the Act you are assigned to, within your groups, you should also help with finding appropriate visuals and 1 or 2 external examples of comedy and farce. Send these to the compiler (tentatively Alex and I) by 3rd May. The remaining 3 days should be spent looking through the compiled slides and committing them to memory. 6 May - 8 May: Get ready to present because it could be any one of us that our lit teacher chooses to call! *TAKE NOTE: Remember where you get any visuals/external information from, because we need to include a bibliography at the end. -- Ok guys that's all, sorry for the insanely long post.. Hope it's clear though. If you guys want to clarify anything, you can ask me in school tomorrow or something. :) Oh and if you have any suggestions on how to improve the delegation/timeline, let me know too please! See you all tomorrow, God Bless! Amy --------------------------- Features of Comedy & Farce Salutations Our venerable leader, Miss K, has blessed us with [even] more homework! Read and recieve divine elucidation. Features of comedy and farce. How are they to be seen in the play?
That is all, fellow comrades. May the fire of a thousand suns, and the blessings of the K warm your being, that you may comprehend the height of this divine expositioning. Alex Y 4:38 PM Hey ppl Tomorrow's history tutorial will be canceled and shifted to Wednesday at 2.30 to 3.30 According to mr yong cca starts at 330 so everyone have to turn up. To facilitate the tutorial ending earlier we have to do the presentations on mahjong paper to prepare for wednesday in your groups. And btw the history question we need to prepare the lecture 4 question about American containment was based on a wrong interpretation. that question. (editbyJannah - i think he means this is the one we have to prep first! but later there's Lect 5!) Joel Sunday, April 5, 2009 Y 11:19 AM HOMEWORK:
I think that's all, anything else, please update! ANYHOW, prioritise hor - which one is due first, do first! mwaks! jans Wednesday, April 1, 2009 Y 10:38 PM Hey aseven :D Well, just a little round of updates and stuff about things, in our world and in THE world! Cashing in!! Jist: In the US (Washington), a widow just cashed in a total of approximately US$145million from a lawsuit. The case: suing Philip Morris (see the tiny PM in the picture?), known tobacco company -think Malboro- for the death of her husband due to lung cancer. I don't know if I ought to feel disturbed. The court awarding the wife of a very adult man for damages due to smoking - I'm sure many of us, from the age of 5, already knew of the apparent damages that smoking can bring about in the human body. I mean, is the already GORY photos on cigarette packages not apparent enough? I don't know, it's just as if the court is allowing people to run away from the consequences of their actions. P/S:The man smoked about 3 packets/a day for about 47years. You've gotta be kidding me. (Link's in the title!) Anyhow:
(chronologically) Learnt what we did wrong in Burma MSA. Learnt about the diff policies of USSR and how it affected cold war. More confusing And so tomorrow... LONG DAY IN SCHOOL - extra Lit lecture for Z tomorrow. Physical Education (zomg!). Goodluck lovelies. jaye. |
