Jay Chou 'World Tour' Singapore Segment

Yes, I know I'm a music junkie. And I'm nuts about martial arts.

Yes, yes, I know I look like some 'gina' fanboy in this photo but (eat your heart out Miss Sheikha, I know you closet Jay Chou fan too!)
But how not to like a guy that got songs named <双节棍>-Nunchaku, or having sung the theme song <霍元甲>for 'Fearless'

So having heard that Jay was gonna be in Singapore, how to miss, right?
But tickets for the 19th were sold out almost immediately once sales started-- Luckily, they opened another show on the 18th-- which turned out to be his birthday.
So lucky me and the wife bought the tix and waiting in anticipation for Jay's concert

(Yup, so I lied about waving the funny big hand around:P)

Well from the opening act to the encore, Jay sure did not disappoint.
The crowd literally went wild during the opening sequence- who says Singaporeans not happening?


His infectious 《牛仔很忙》-"Cowboys are damn Busy" was a big hit with the crowd! It was a refreshing change from his previous brooding, 'act-cool' image and showed his maturity and adaptibility as an entertainer


My personal favourite 《千里之外》-"Thousand Miles Away" led me to sing along like some demented drunk kopi-tiam uncle at the Comunnity Centre Karaoke (Sorry man, but if I could sing like Jay, I wouldn't be teaching now, would I?"

The 'live' erhu lead it was great- the only thing it lacked was that Fei Yuqing wasn't here to do the full duet with him!

Jay also gave his protege “南拳妈妈” quite a bit of air-time, showcasing them as a group and as individuals. While they are no where as accomplished as him, they were quite entertaining to watch- especially during the spoof segments where they made fun of him!

Actually, can see Jay heading into show hosting as he ages-- hmmmm, may take over Jacky Wu (his mentor and discoverer actually) later on.

Jay showed that he can constantly re-invent him and spoof himself. He did an acoustic, blues re-mix of <双节棍>-Nunchaku

It was hilarious and one of the best moments of the concert!
Enjoy!

Safety Evacuation Drill

Today we had our safety evacuation drill,

From our Sec 1E class, we have 2 boys who are wheel-chair bound that will need help to be evacuated. Although the have been assigned buddies from their classes, Isaac and Shalom still need some strong, muscular help to ensure a safe and speedy evacuation during crisis.

Here, the GCE PE class of 3B came to the rescue, with our Hunk of the year, Daniel Lightfoot being tasked to carry Isaac.
Then we have our 3 Musketeers: Haziq, Jarren and Danial who were tasked with fitting Shalom with the carrying harness and transporting him down.
We can see our 'professional' rescue team in action here.



Well done boys!

Hand in Hand

Hi boys, my Dad forwarded me this video from YouTube.
This year, we've got some boys with handicaps in my classes.

I hope that this video will inspire you to know that even though some of you maybe handicapped, but you will never be disabled as long as your rise above the occasion.


Let us make something more of ourselves.

Hostel Food Stockpile

Yesterday, I was the Duty Teacher at Victoria Hall.
As I went on my rounds to check on the boys for CST, I stumbled on a little secret in Room H1-06-19.

You know that Singapore is now short of luncheon meat,right? If you ever wondered where it went, I'll show you here.



Looks like Tung and Minh can start up a 7-11 conveniece store on the 6th floor now.
