Singapore Halloween 2013 - The Clementi Incident at Clementi CC

The one day Halloween event at Clementi CC was organised by Clementi CC Youth Executive Committee.
Manpower was headed by New Town Secondary Basketball students.

There were two haunted trails in the CC, each with a different theme. The red route is a haunted village trail, where the dead arises and follows you around. The blue route was not as scary, and you get to sit with a singing doll which will beckon for you to sing with her.

Preparations for the event was done half a year ago, since the students had to prepare their props early (supposedly). We ended up getting most of the props a day before as we realised that the students only managed to get a bit of the props which were not enough to scare them.

The setting up of the whole place was very hard, since there were still ongoing courses and we couldn't touch the room till they ended. The few of us stayed till around 2am just to set up the stuff the night before the event.

On the day of the event, there was also PCF graduation so the the hall and some of the rooms were used up. Argh. They were so demanding about everything. Luckily Jiahao was there so that we managed to function as normal.

We hired Shella Goh's Make Up, and these are the photos that were taken.
They are very professionally done! I would recommend them to those who need to hire makeup artists. Since there were some students who dropped out, they changed the simple make up to elaborate ones for us! It was a very good deal, especially since we managed to draw the attention of the people around us when I went to buy dinner for the volunteers. (I met a Jehovah Witness because of it, but that is another story)


I looked quite horrible here @@


The sales were good and the queue was never ending. We closed shop at 10.30pm for the registration but the queue lasted till 11pm.

The clean up was crazy. We spent the whole day scrubbing the toilet and the floor of the rooms. We should hire an event company next time. @@

But it was fun, and I'm glad that I brought up the idea of Halloween in the CC.

Review: Learning spanish with Wlingua Spanish

It has already been a dream of mine to learn Spanish but due to the astronomical cost involved in picking up Spanish at a language school ( I was looking at las lilas school ), I gave up. So, while I was randomly surfing the net, I came across this app, Wlingua Spanish , which has a 7 days free premium trial and it seems to have quite good reviews on google play. As such, I downloaded the app and started using it. What can I say, it's awesome! I don't know how the basic plan looks like since I am still on my premium trial, but the layout of the course is really pretty good. According to the app, it covers up to B1 of the Spanish course, which equates to around 3 years of study in a language school. That's more than good enough for beginners like us. Below is a screenshot of my progress in 4 days, and I have been spending around 4-5 hours each day on this app. It seems like I got to take a long time even before I can complete the A1 course. T.T This app has a rewar...

Phonics Class at Curious Thoughts Academy (CTA)

Today, I am going to share my review of the phonics enrichment school that I have been sending Hunter to since start of July 2023. To give you the background, Curious Thoughts Academy (CTA) base its phonics classes on Jolly Phonics, and is located in Bugis.  I first got to know about CTA when they launched their phonics workshop. Being the ambitious mum, I thought that I could save some money and teach Hunter phonics by myself. After going through the workshop, I realised the amount of work I have to put in to curate the materials, and I decided that it is best left to the experts and I would just revise the contents with him at home during the week. Below are the information from CTA. They run the classes by terms and classes are tagged by levels.        Price List for 2023                         Hunter is currently in Intermediate phonics and will be advancing up next year.  I love the approach ...

[Review] Lovejoy confinement centre in JB

I did an unthinkable thing, which is to head over to JB for confinement. When I first suggested that, everyone around me warned me against it. They cited the lack of healthcare should I or Hunter is unwell and the inconvenience caused by the distance. I wasn't deterred and pushed forward with it and I didn't have any regrets. I enjoyed my time there tremendously and would go back there again if not for my insistence that I would not have a second kid. All that being said, there are definitely some cons but they are minor issues in my opinion. An unassuming front  Pros: Amazing food As everyone knows, food in JB tastes better and the confinement centre is no exception. 5 meals are provided a day with unlimited milo and biscuits should you be hungry. (Trust me, breastfeeding is hungry business). The timings are 9am (breakfast), 12pm (lunch), 3pm (teabreak), 6pm (dinner) and 9pm(supper). As you can see, I was really well taken care of in the food department when I was there. Huge ...

Our 1st home

In a few months' time, we will be moving out of our BTO home. It is a bittersweet moment as we have painstakingly designed our place, putting in months of efforts. However, we (or mainly I) decided that we have outgrown this current flat, and require more space for our growing boy. (And it definitely does not help that both of us are currently working in a hybrid mode.) Our place before we shifted in: Our platform bed - You may be amazed that it fits a king sized bed We chose casement doors for the cupboards I love the spanish made wooden tiles! We got it at Soon Bee Huat Our customized racks in the bomb shelter The view from our home After moving in: The kitchen The living room It has been a good 6 years. 

Review: NUR1113 (Active Ageing in Singapore)

Apparently this is a year one nursing module. This is another module which is highly bidded for, and a relatively easy module. Lectures can be skipped, as long as you read the lecture slides on your own. All the information had been pasted into the slides, rendering the lecture useless. The lecturer usually just reads from the slides. Tutorials are easy. Nothing much to prepare, and basically, they are logic questions. I remember doing a powerpoint presentation for this module. We also did random experiments in tutorials. However, one thing not good about being the minority in a close-knitted faculty means that you can't really interact with the rest of the module mates. They all have a similar timetable, meaning that you have to suit their timing. Something to consider if you are taking language modules huh.
