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. ):

Once upon a two years,
a group of people set out for Bordeaux, France.
This group of people came back knowing that they each left a piece of themselves behind,
and a piece of themselves in each other.
And from then on,
they were known as the family of 27.
Two years later,
half stands in the departure hall,
watching a selected few of their beloved friends departing for France once again.
If we could turn back time...

I suppose I do need my life to be full of activity. Which was why when i woke up yesterday knowing that I had a whole day lying before me, I felt lost. C'mon pile on the fats i meant life. It's the aftermath I suppose, of retreat planning. Leave the house at 8/9am reach home at 7/10pm sit in front of the computer until 3am I love those guys in EXCO a hell lot I wonder whether any of you still feel that way? Nevermind that I missed retreat, nevermind that I was in sitting in a square room with a round-faced man learning about the intricacies of how not to pour chemicals on your hands or shake a potentially shock-sensitive chemical which will find joy in exploding in your very own hands, nevermind how badly I missed you. I'm damn grateful for the experience. Some things you remember forever.
This week, I've been thinking, writing, smiling/laughing, wandering a lot. Today I heard a music. Yesterday everyone wanted to teach me to walk in circles, and the larger the radius the better. The day before yesterday my mind took off in spirals of joy to find that someone managed to put into words, so beautifully, everything I felt and never said, to find that romantic souls inhabit my very small world. The day before the day before yesterday featured sweetness breaking free from a cocoon of disappointment.
My mind is preoccupied with people.
I feel very loved once again(:
Curious.
Natalie survive):
My IMRE group-mates are the cutest girls ever! We're a Multi-National Superpower.
BUDDY:D
I have been wondering for the past month, will wonder for another.
Family dinner @ Changi Airport it was 2 years from tonight(:
MMPD dinner must take place!
My imagination rules over me. I let it interpret whatever it may wish of an expression, a word, a gesture, a look not shown, a line not said, an action not completed, so that situations may lend my whimsical guesses more truth. Occasionally it becomes sensitivity, occasionally it's sheer irrationality. We forget that everyone is not us.
Work need be done.Words need be said.Turn the music back on.Power of my own life is back in my hands until circumstances snatch it away.

it just occured to me: my isle group is a perfect manifestation of my class, minus MOST of the annoying people. solid cold indifference. sad case huh.
i practised all the things that i should say
line by line, every word
i tell myself today could be the day
but everytime, i lose my nerve.
i wanna tell you what im feeling
but i dont know how to start
i wanna tell you but now im afraid, that you might break my heart
oh why should anything to easy ever be so hard to do
i wanna tell you what im feeling and to say that

whywhy): cheers.
life isn't a slice of pie after all, no matter how badly we want it to be, how strongly we've been believing it to be such in our sheltered childhood days. suddenly life's not gentle, or even friendly. and certainly not very fair. but we'll get there, slowly.
