Mr Chua came in the class,we greeted Mr Chua Good Morning and off we go starting on our lesson. Mr Chua started off the lesson with Q&A (questions and answers). From the Q&A, i have learnt more about Elvis's live as in why he took those drugs and etc. We also did some admins in collecting worksheets and also finding the culprits on the students that did not do their homework.
Then Mr Chua told us to find sentences or words in the text that we did not know. Mr Chua asked about the Cape Canaveral sending out an alert. Most of us were dumbfounded by that word,so Mr Chua explained to us about it. A Cape Canaveral is a place where the scientists sends rocket/spaceship to space. In the text it is said that he was doing a hundred and five and Cape Canaveral sent out an alert. It meant that it was sending our an alert because it was burning as for hundred it tells us that he was speeding to fast till the Cape Canaveral had to sent out and alert. Nor forgetting about the drugs also. Elvis Presley took drugs because he wanted to forget his misery and pain. Therefore he took those drugs in a amount the is so uncountable to us and also because of his stupid ideas of forgetting his misery and pain in a more painful way that could lead to death,he ended his live quite early and left his fans disappointed of him. It was said that he had overdosed the drugs and died in a tragic way(bloated).The bell rang,Mr Chua greeted us good bye and went off for his next lesson. Therefore,overdosing ourselves with drug/pills will not help us forget pain and misery but it will shorten our lives! ;D

Term 3 week 5 (MON)
Firstly we greeted Mr Chua as he entered the class. Then we started off with our lesson. We did some recaps on the the previous text that we read which is Scene 2. As for today we had started on Scene 3. The scene is back to Older Preslesy live. As most of us can see that in scene 1 and 3, it is about Older Presle while in Scene 2 it is about Younger Presley.This is known as a literally device called Flashback. I could see the the difference between the relationship of Older Presley and Redhead shows that he was filial and positive towards them. Even the relationship between Younger Presley and with his mama,Gladys Preseley. I can see the whenever his mama died(it was when he was older), he doesn't treat Redhead very well like it used to be back then although she was his girlfriend. We could also tell that from the text that Elvis didn't really care or love about Redhead, he was just toying with Redhead's feelings. How sad and dissapointing of Elvis's behaviour... :( During Scene 3, he showed to Redhead how he felt when his live was in a terrible mess. Meaning,how he misses his mama and how he felt after he knew that Redhead wanted to leave him or was frustrated at him.After some explanation and questionaires from Mr Chua, he gave us a worksheet one Scene 3 and we were needed to hand it up in next week's literauture lesson.The bell rang,Mr Chua greeted us good bye and rush of for his next lesson.

Term 3 week 4 (TUE)


Today, Mr Chua asked us to open our text on scene 1. Then he instructed us to imagine how Older Presley had treated his girlfriend, Redhead. After i read the text, i realised that Elvis treated his girlfriend in a cold and negative way. Not only Elvis treated Redhead cold but he also though that her character was like his friends, Duke and Gerry. They both wanted Elvis's wealth and not friendship.It was so crucial of Elvis.In my opinion,i think Redhead treated Elvis in a way that has care and concern. I can also see that from the text that Redhead is worried abut Elvis's health because Elvis is asking pills/drugs,therefore Redhead could stand the behaviour of Elvis and if he were to continue behaving like the way he is,he will definitely won't live long. Whenever Redhead wanted to talk to Elvis,he would give a quick judgemental question by asking her whether she wanted a gold watch or a Cadillac,she will then says that she wanted to talk to him in a firm voice that will make Elvis knows that she cares for him in many different ways.After a few explanation on the text,Mr Chua gave us a worksheet on scene 1 and we were needed to hand it in by next literature lesson.Once the class had received the worksheet each,Mr Chua dismissed the class from his lesson and he rush o for his next lesson.

Term 3 week 4 (MON)
Hey it is week 3 already! One more week to NDP ;) OK so today,Mr Chua started the class by reading up the Scene one of AYLT(Are You Lonesome Tonight?).It was a sad thing that his important love one left him, but still i am disappointed at Elvis as he was a drug addict! In the text says that he needed those pills to soothe his pain and agony. Those pills were actually normal pills but instead he misused it and ended up dead due to the consumption of those pills. How sad... During his younger days he had a lot of girlfriends as he was popular amongst the females. One of the are REDHEAD. In this scene shows more of Elvis feelings toward his love ones. Most of the feelings were Negative because he thought that everyone wanted his wealth instead of his care and love. Whenever REDHEAD tried to have a conversation with Elvis, Elvis would start the conversation by asking her whether she wanted a gold watch or a Cadillac. Those stuffs are worth more than her feelings because whenever he said that to her,she will feel that she is used by Elvis and she won't feel any connection of love between the both of them. Because of Duke and Gerry, the cronies, It turned out to be like this.Everyone around him cared about him(except Duke and Gerry) , They all want him to be a happy and humble man, because of his fame, cronies such as Duke and Gerry, changed him. The school bell rang, Mr Chua finished his last sentence and greeted the class good bye and left for his next lesson.

Term 3 week 3 (TUE)

WOW,time do flies. I still can't believe it is week two already! ;D Today lesson was quite surprising for me because it was about Elvis Presley! I didn't know that we were needed to learn about him. I was quite surprised when most of my classmates didn't know who was Elvis Presley. I heard many stories of him. He was a LEGEND,I'll tell you! xD The beginning of class,Mr Chua told us to write at least some facts that we knew about Elvis Presley on a piece of foolscap paper in columns. There were three columns,first column was to write down what did we knew about him. The second column was what would we want to know about him. As for the last column,i couldn't remember what did i wrote.(sorry) This is what i wrote for the first column,he is The King Of Rock & Roll. :D Then we were given each a worksheet. The worksheet contains all the fact about Elvis Presley. It was quite interesting to read. After this lesson,i have learned so much about him. I learned that he was grossly overweight and depressed when he died. How disappointing.. :( The one thing that was interesting for me was that he died on the day i was born which is on 16 August. I was told by my parents and also documentaries. COOL! We were told that we will be learning more about his song that has a lot of meaningful words to it. Most of the words came from his daily life. The title is "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" And not forgetting himself that we will be learning about. Mr Chua had also showed us some videos on Elvis Presley when he was performing during his younger days. After we had watched the video,the bell had rang. Mr Chua and my classmates greeted one another and started off with our next lesson as per normal.

The objective of today's lesson was to finish up our previous work which is the grouping. Once Mr Chua came into the class,he told the class to lined up outside the class and proceed to the ACES gallery. We sat together with our own group mates and had further discussions on the postings. All of had agreed on assigning Kaili as the Director! Congrats~ :) As for the others,don't be too sad. There are still loads of creative positions for us!
Actor's IC: Indra
Actors and actresses:Wei Yi,Me!(Syafiqah) and last but not least Yih Chyuan.
Wardrobe IC: Si Ping
Wardrobe members:Hai Ting
Stage manager:Vivian
Stage operator:Bao Sheng and Gerald
That's all for the positions. Hopefully the act is going to be a excellent one for our group. :D Most of us choose Merchant Of Venice due to the fact that Romeo and Juliet requires FAKE KISSING! OMG. Haha. And because of the kissing part,none of us had chosen R&J. Once done deciding and discussing,we went back to our class and started of with our next lesson.
