RAWR. Hey there.

Uh... in case anyone noticed, the pack 1 and 3 link were swapped but that has now been fixed.

The torrent link will be up soon for those who actually wants it.

Torrent Link:
Torrent File

For those who don't want to use torrent or have no idea how to, stick to the DDL links below.

PS: I finally felt the greatness of 1mb/s download speed. Part 3 only took 3 minutes 30 seconds to download.

Use a download manager called Download Express if you want better speeds when downloading. (Recommended by the person who last posted.)

Hey guys this is gibs here, before I write up on the event, just like to let you guys know that the whole event photos are available on the links below. However, do be warned that these files weight in at a whopping total size of ~670MB. Get all three of them, then extract, as you cannot extract the file packs individually.

File Pack 1
File Pack 2
File Pack 3

To download it, just click on the 'Request Download Ticket' text. Then click on the direct file link that will appear shortly after :)

+ In order to achieve faster download speeds, you can use Download Express so that you get maximum download speeds for the internet plan you get. Also, iFile.it also supports multiple threads for each download, so you get your photos fast :D

* If your antivirus tells you that Download Express is a virus, just ignore it, as it isn't a virus. Trust me on this ;)

You have been warned on the file sizes :D

gibs.

Well, well, well... I bet a pretty penny some of you thought I have forgotten about the polls by now.

However!

They are already up and running so you all have till the last minute before Valentine's day this year to vote. No funny polls there so prepare to take everything with a relatively serious note. (Not)

No signs of Joshua posting anything here yet so... yeah, do more than tagging already. XD

And as I now head towards ending this post in a witty manner... allow me to tell you all a short story about what happened in one of my most recent pop quiz given to me by my lecturer...

Question 5:
Note: This MCQ question might have more than one answer.
Choose as many as you think is correct.

1. Happy!
2. Chinese!
3. New!
4. Year!

And you will get 2 marks for getting it correct! :P

Well then, have a Happy Chinese New Year for all askarians and all the best for everything!

*Radar distortion noises*

All right. I am sure that anyone who sees this now will go, "Why are you still posting on a barely alive class blog?"

My answer would be, "Good question. Now stop asking."

Anyway, just to pass about a little hint on the upcoming polls, one of which will be regarding CNY, another would be a subject closer to heart and the last one... a surprise.

Speaking of which, I "ran" (Not literally, of course) into the la- I mean the one who started this all recently. (Not Mr Peh, just in case anyone was thinking of him)

Going on, it simply means that I met Joshua. Now, it seems the only thing he remembers me for is "4A class blog" and mentioned something about changing the blog skin (Hopefully soon if he means it). And so, we might have a new blogskin to be admiring.

That about wraps up this post... and just in case anyone wonders who posted the previous post, look below.

Posted By : Hean Jin (Happened to "accidentally" forget to tag the last post... Sorry)

Hello once more, fellow ASKARIANS!

A year has finally gone by since our parting after the O levels and so on...

And frankly speaking, I have no idea what I intended to do or get done by posting this anyway.

Most importantly at hand would be to wish everyone a Happy New Year!

Gone is 2008 as we are now in 2009 and venturing foward.

At this point of time, most guys/gals who have gone to Poly are probably still in school, (T_T)
and well... most JC guys/gals are probably just done with their holiday break. (Also T_T)

As for our Askarians who are overseas, whether the new year had already passed hours ago or is still approaching at the time of this post (GMT +8), it's hard to say what they are doing right now and so if any one of you who are overseas and reads this, please tag on the Cbox or message over MSN for the blog account and pass so that we can know how you are doing at the moment. (:D)

And that about wraps up my post after stealing the chance for the first post just after the New Year (Although I think no one actually was competing for the first post other than me) and once again, Happy New Year to all the Askarians and anyone else who visits our blog.

PS: Poll center has no polls going yet. One is being planned to start real soon...
PPS: PS stands for Post Script. :)

Mushi mushi?



Ni men hai hao ma?



So yeah... long time no post. If you have any to say about my attempts at Chinese and Japanese, feel free to. Down to business... It's been months since the last post and about a year since Askari has parted. *Sniff*?



Teacher's day is coming up this 1st September and Gibson and some other old Askarians will/might be going back to give some of the teachers we still know a surprise( and a gift?). So the reason why I mentioned Gibs is because he's the guy behind this return of mine (Uh... I had planned my return some time later) as well as this old school revisit. So anyone interested, please post in the Cbox or msg us over MSN and maybe we could all set up something.



PS : Here's something extra from the MSN conversation we had to reel you guys in. :P



MSN Convo :
Stick says:
Okay
Stick says:
I got into the blog
Stick says:
What do you want me to say about Teacher's day?
Chill³ / gibby says:
just say whether they want a meeting or not...
Stick says:
Hmm
Stick says:
Shouldn't it be more like I am going back to schol, want to come along or not?
Stick says:
*school
Chill³ / gibby says:
yeah sumth like that
Chill³ / gibby says:

Stick says:

Stick says:
Okay



So yeah. Do join us and all have one big meeting, okay?

haiz. thats why i say.. u see.. i dont know what am i now..
thinking of doing something that i have never thought b4
we always say we can always meet up after sec school .. no worry..
and i know that everyone do wan to meet up..
but .. do we have the time??.
timetable are all different..
project are stacking up ..
homework are waiting for me..
group project are yet to be done..
AND WITH ALL THIS.. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE TIME FOR THE REST??

school have started, we got our new class.
but let me tell u all something that u all wont believe.
i am very quiet in my class. and i am very serious.

i dont know why i am like this.
maybe cos i really cannot fit myself into a class where not even a single askarian is in .
a class where.. there are no familiar face.
a class where none had been through the thick and thin with me.
a class.. a class where i havent find my purpose of being in there..

this all all just sudden feeling.. so sudden that i feel like telling u all..
those who still remb askari as ur class.
we might be the worst in ppls eyes..
but to me.. and some of u out there..
we know deep down out heart.. askari is the best..
no one will ever... and never replace askari in my heart..

once a friend, a lifetime friend...

Ok. One piece good news and another piece bad. Guess we will go with good first. A new poll is up and it is about how much you got for the Chinese New Year. This poll is friendly to all and hence, do take part in voting and sharing with the rest of the class. In other news, the Cbox have been cleared and is now in a brand new state. Please refrain from posting more than three times in the row unless you have almost completely use up the space in the three tags and have more to say. With the reset, may the Cbox have a new start and no signs of possible spammage.


Posted By : Hean Jin ( http://www.poll-center.blogspot.com )

Alright. If you look below the C-Box Area now, there is one link. I will need you guys who want to be listed to send me your blog's URL and the nick/name that you want to have displayed along with it. Joshua sent me a copy of the old blog's template but I can't find it so all those who were previously on the blog is also gone. (Joshua, please resend.) But if you don't want to wait for him, just send me your blog's URL and nick/name if you don't see it under the links still.

Askari !
First and foremost.... Congratulations to those who have done well....
Congratulations also to those who didn't do so well, but did well enough!
Congratulations to those, who didn't do well......
In short, Congratulations to EVERYONE!

You know why ?
Cause we have gone through the whole O levels as ONE class....
We have gone through 2 years together.. as one united body! =]
That's what matters...

I know, right now... there are some of us, who missed by that few pts, or even one point....
There are also some of us, who have done well enough to stay in JC...
Also some of us, who have done extremely well, to go to a JC....

Whatever it is, The Askari Spirit still lives in all of us....

But let me tell you this..
For every Askarian who cried today... DAD cried the most....
I can tell....
For every Askarian that cried today.. DAD cried, because which DAD doesn't want their children to do well?

But well, It's over...

Nothing can be done to change the marks.
We have to live live according to how we have fared.....

To Yanming,
You were the first person who cried ....
It's okay.
English is NOT everything....
You have done well for others yeah ?
So.... pursue the Poly course you wish to go to..and Jia You!

To Felicia, TianJiao, BeeChin,
You are the 3 superwomans' of Askari...
Even though you lost the battle to Damien,
We are still proud of you!
We love you as much still !
We are still Askarians' forever right ?

Whatever it is, Jia you !

To Kenneth
Even tho you didn't get your DPA successfully, Jia you !
There are other courses which you can pursue... =]
Jia You ! Askari behind you always !

To Sihui
Even tho you didn't do that well for EL.. But... I want you to know. EL is not everything....
NY still would want you... Go back to them, and explain to them....

Jia You!

To the rest, whom I did not know anything.....
Jia you.. No matter how many pts you guys have gotten,
Askari loves you always !

We will forever be ONE class. ONE heart beating.. and ONE united group of children, for our DAD.

To DAD,
We will always be behind you...
Askari loves you alot !
We are sorry if we have not performed the way you wanted us to perform.. especially me...

Whatever it is, Remain as our most wonderful FT, most wonderful Dad, and most wonderful Physics teacher FOREVER!

I LOVE ALVIN PEH !

With that,
Joshua.

That's it! We have done it. Through the O levels and passed the results release, the askarians have been through it all. There was plenty of laughing and crying after the results were given out (Even before the results were given out) , but overall, the askari has turned out just fine. While the end of the O is here and the start of the JAE is out for most, the polls that have bugged us through the years are not over yet. So it about 30 minutes after this post, feel free to drop by www.poll-center.blogspot.com and vote for the choice that suits you the most in the poll. In other news, the blog template will be going through some changes so there will be more stuff around here for you to hang about for as well as music. (As soon as I find time to get around to doing it) With that, I wrap up this post. Hopefully, shortly after this, another askari will drop by this place and post something emo. (To all of the askari : Posting emo stuff on this blog about the O and the last two years should be done within a week after today. XD)


Posted By : Hean Jin

Well, in accordance to the update of the previous post, the result are released today, in 14 hours of when this post was made. As mentioned earlier, there will be a poll (One you all might dread or like) made by the end of today, which means we would have gotten our results by then and are either rejoicing or taking the plunge (The plunge into alcohol or soft drinks if you can't get alcohol. Not off a building of course) . I had wanted to put up something about the music playlist on this blog but thought against it. So that's it for this post. However, if any of you have any songs you like and it is hosted on a website where you have it's full url, send me the link so that we can get this started. Wishing the askarians the fate of the most optimistic results we can get, it is the official end of this post from me.


Posted By : Hean Jin (Late nights have never been easier)

*Ahem* In this post, I woould like to cover a few things. Firstly, there is no music on the blog yet(You know why.) Maybe I will put back the old song after all. Secondly, O level results will be released next week.

25th, It believe.

And with that, this post is done. Btw, incoming poll on the day of the results release.

Edit : It is on the 24th. Which also means it is but hours away from the result result. Good luck to those who wants it. Good job for those who are confident. For those who are confident in doing poorly and do not care, you are on your own.

I have half day off... Emo post beginning....Heh...... Not exactly emo. But memories..

Remember this picture??



It brings back memories don't they ?
Tingli, the once quiet girl in 3A, became the once noisy girl in 4A.....
Funny eh?

Remember this ?



I miss the jokers.. They were the ones who brought laughter, jokes, and life to the class.... As if the iconic chairman wasn't enough, they added more life !

Remember this ?



And this ?



And this ?



Sometimes, we are all very busy with our lives and our work.. But have we really stopped everything, and just think, I miss Askari.
Askari... Anyone still remember how this word came out?

It came about because DAD wanted us to be warriors, to fight.. If Im not wrong, Askari means warrior in another language.. was it latin or portugest.. whatever it is...

Im listening to this song, called To Where You Are....

Who can say for certain..
Maybe you're still here
I feel you ard me
Your memory so clear...

Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're sitll an inspiration can it be?

That you are mine... Forever love...
U're watching over me from up above

Fly me up to where you are , beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
to see you smile.
If only for awhile to kno you are there
a breath away is not far to where you are

Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream.

As my heart holds you,
Just one beat away....
I cherish all you give me...
Everyday...

Cause You're mine...
Forever love,
watching me, from up above...
And I'll believe that angels breathe..
And that love will bve more then never leave

Fly ... Me up to where you are, beyond the distant star...
I wish upon tonight... to see you smile.....
If only for ahwile to know you're there....
A breathe aways' not far from where you are...

A breathe aways' not far to wherre you are...




Tears are flowing down my face now...
THose 2 years.. HAVE BEEN THE BEST OF MY LIFE !
Everything.. ranging from lessons. to PE lessons, to outings to NYP, SP, TP, everywhere..
Even going for assembly, Askari always take our own sweet time... talk... But isnt' that where the bonding is ?

Bonding, is most impt in friendship... Yeah.
If not, how do you further understand your friends.. let alone know what is happening to them, at a certain stage of their lives?



Well... Time flies... and Askari had to leave Eden eventually..
It's now up to the individual 39 of us, to keep in touch... amongst ourselves...

Gatherings? I hope so...

Ok. Let's see. Difference in the number of songs we have from yesterday till today. Zero. Things are looking grim for now. So that's all this post is about. I will continue about this next week. Inregardless of changes unless we really hit a full playlist.
