Now, every family should have a family history, no? So. Our family was formed earlier this year when our (soon to be) fps mentor ms may tan asked if any of us would like to try out fps! And so our family was formed. Audrye, Huimin, Chris-Tin and Shuting.
Since march we have battled through problems, underlying problems, solutions, criteria, ranking and action plans, at the same time braving global warming, freedom of speech and most recently, nutrition.
Our unofficial meeting venue was always Chris-tin's house, and in the process, all of us gained weight with all the many many many marks and spencers cookies and ruffles we had! So much for learning about all the transfat.
It was in this intellectual environment that chemical bonding took place! In the end, we officially became the fps family, which can withstand high temperatures without any change in state. XD
A note about the name! reverse electrolysis was one of our action plans! and fps stands for Future Problem Solving!
Did you know? Chris-Tin killed the blog the first time because she didnt know that half the html for the blog was cut off, and she saved the template changes! so she had to do it all over again. ):

i need to get up by 6am but i dont feel like sleeping as yet. let me talk about what happened yesterday! fps family went for outing to celebrate first day of
LIBERATION :D audrye huimin and i were supposed to meet at 10.45 to settle chris' present (shh it's a secret). but as usual, all 3 of us were late. while waiting for the other two, i met peiyi at the far east bus stop, looking sharp in his uniform haha. it's quite funny how we always seem to meet under all sorts of different circumstances but never back at our primary school. before i had the chance to ask him more about the chocolate fondue they had at nanhua the day before (!!!!!!), huimin appeared. so we marched up to the shop where we can
make chris-tin's dream come true excitedly, only to realise that it only opens at noon. anticlimax. so there was no choice but to settle it another day since we had to meet chris soon. chris be patient your present will come!
but anyhow, after a long long time, finally the family was reunited in cine! even though we didnt end up doing much other than just walking around and having lunch together, it's just nice to be with everyone again. after lunch, chris made us all close our eyes and then, she surprised us all with gifts. she had sewn these felt dices with "fps" and the first letter of our names on each one for all 4 of us IT IS REALLY SWEET thank you :D so much for you 2h x 4 of effort through 5 episodes of friends, i cant remember how many of fruit basket
[it wasnt fruits basket! it was keroro gunsou! this anime about a really cute frog alien thing. haha], and listening to your playlist 4 and a half times! we are CASH (:

Huimin! we are precious. because of you all im really glad that i did fps. we may not be very good at fps, or very good at brainstorming, or very good at working together sometimes, and we really do come up with the dumbest ideas, but all those tedious, long days of racking our brains really brought us together within a few months. in the end, what i gained from the fps programme is totally different from what i expected when we decided to take up fps in the beginning of the year, but this is much better.
yay look pics!
i met up with my mum and brother after that. guess where we went to!
it was really fun i've forgotten that families can have as much fun outside as friends do. we were mostly at the beaches where we took an almost unbecoming number of photos of the sand the water the plants the bridges, everything. haha we must have seemed really strange to the young people who were there in groups. we went to watch the musical fountain too. it's pretty :D water, fire, lights and laser, and sentosa really played up the cute factor of the show. it made me miss france though, especially futuroscope! their version was much more splendid and miss-able even though we had to sit around with our hands freezing in the winter night just to catch it, and we didnt understand a word of the french narration. 27 is <3!
family meeting at 3:47 AM
