ergh.... so tired, i just came back home because tuition class ended at 9.30pm and i stayed back to ask Ms Chee some questions. who would've known that there were 4 ppl already waiting in line.
Ms Chee says tuition class is almost full, few vacancies left. join as soon as possible.
hope that answers SH questions.

it was DISC workshop the whole day in school.
morning:
met Melvin at MRT station, together with Veron and Shiqi.
we went to canteen to grab some bites. Found out that Melvin doesn't like tuna. hehe XD

DISC workshop was held in the hall.
we had to gather into our assigned classes. the classes we'll be in for the next 2 years.
so excited XD

talked to the guy next to me after a few moments of silence. so the first friend i made in class 1003 was Javier, excluding Veron.

there was this guy who has really tanned skin, woohoo...super tanned guy. he wants to join dragonboat cca. and... i just couldn't recall his name. but i was thinking all this while, there was finally someone who has more tanned skin than michelle.
speaking of her, haven't heard much news from her, but i would like to tell her to have fun in her jc and to keep in touch.
our facillitator for the programme was Elizabeth.
i can't really recall what we did for activities, but i'll try to remember.
firstly was the shoe activity. not really about shoes, but we had to take one off. one person goes to the center and says something. eg; people who wear coloured socks.
then ppl with coloured socks switch places/shoes.
then we settled down and the programme started. we were given a booklet. we filled in our 5 possible career choices and then narrowed it down to 1. mine was bioengineer or researcher.
lol, Veron wanted to be CEO of Subway! i love Subway, but its quite expensive. make them lower the price!

after that, we gathered into groups to discuss about our choices ...etc.. as well as introduce ourselves.
we didsome other activities, like doing some special and weird handshakes. i like the sumo greeting XD

then there was this activity where we went around asking for tokens from others but we had to fulfill a certain criteria first.

OH... come on, do i have to blog everything out... O.o the post will be so lengthy~

we had breaktime after that? i can't recall clearly, but there was 3 breaks. two 1/2 hour breaks and a 1 hour break.

but after one of the breaks, we took the personality test. we had to circle the most possible and least possible option of 4 given choices in a question, about 24 questions in total.
tabulated the results in a table and plotted some graph thingy. so my public self, private self and perceived self all peaked at I which means im an INFLUENCING type person :D

so we separated into D,I,S,C.
D= dominant
I= influencing (im in here :D)
S= steady
C= compliant

Elizabeth is a type D. haha, bossy but fun.


minority of the JC1 were the D, majority were at the I and S while C was a little less than the I and S.
and boy, were the I group and enthusiastic group!
so many people shared the same dominant behaviour as me!

:::blah blah blah:::

discussed about pros and cons of the ''I'' personality.

played more games together after that.
all i could remember was that i had lots of fun. typical of the ''I'' behaviour.

word games afterwards was fun. we had to form alphabets using our ourselves. the 12-foot game, too, was great fun. required alot of teamwork and strength. was suprised at how flexible some girls are. i can't even straighten my leg past my hips!

we had to write a reflection of the day, i think i wrote the longest, but if you really want to know, here goes:

Overall, this has been a very memorable and enriching experience. the games organised have allowed much important build up of bonds between my future classmates. I felt that i had the most fun during the word games because it required us to make use of our creativity & our teamwork. The breaks in between the sessions have allowed me to converse and interact with my friends.
Most importantly, I have found out so much more about my personality today, as well as the personalities of others. I have learnt that behaviour is ever changing, and a dominant behaviour exists.
Lastly, it was a great chance for self improvement and I've learnt that teamwork is key in group activities. So therefore, through the activities, I have greatly enjoyed myself today.

so lengthy right? and the last sentence is so typical of an ''I'' person.
may get class photos taken today from facebook tomorrow, because fellow classmate Stephanie hasn't approved me as friend yet. haha


oh, and im so tired, i've been typing this and facebooking since i came back from tuition.


SH forgot my b'day -.- and asked me just now.
''I'' ppl don't usually get depressed. So im not depressed even if u forget my b;day.
but since i told u, u must buy extra nice present for me m'kay?
