design

2007-06-17T22:51:00.000+08:00

ok heres the design.... the 1 in blue bkgrd is the heart design redrawn, and with a imaginary navy blue polo tee as bkgrd. i think it look nice...

then this 2 logo are the 1 xin drew. the black and white 1, and shld our shirt be black in colour, the logo will instead be in yellow. in no matter wat case, the colour of the logo, will only have ONE colour

Class Shirt Colour FINALISED?

2007-06-17T20:12:00.000+08:00

After days of enthusiastic voting, i seriously cant come to a conclusion.

seriously, my bro who is doing the redrawing for me, says black will be a very good colour, coz the combination of colours tat we will have will look good. he mentioned tat white colour doesnt go well with bright colours, and tat is a real fact. if the heart is gonna be red, it wont it looknice on a white based polo shirt.

and be warned, the design after my bro has redrawn will look different from before. if u dun understand the logic of y shld we redraw it tell me. and i need volunteers to go down with me to the shop this week... no cip hours though.

Class Tee

2007-06-11T22:17:00.000+08:00

Update on class tee

ok we have settled on:

a polo tee
the heart design
the xin's drawing as a logo infront

currently, im asking my bro to duplicate eugenia's heart design into soft copy, so if there is a need to reduce colour, it can be digitally altered. the printer wans the design in soft copy anyway. xin's drawing i have already settled and its my wallpaper lol.

but currently, we are expected to have FIVE colours total on our shirt. we have to find ways to shrink tat to FOUR for it to be more economical. coz, the price we got, if we are going to print 27 shirts, 5 colours on the shirt will cost us $23, 4 colours $20. IF we are printing 32 shirts, with 4 colours, tat will be $18 a piece. In short, more shirts, less colours, cheaper the shirt.

and now more importantly, we need to settle 2 things:

size of shirts all of us wan
colour of the polo tee

so tell me asap the size of shirt tat u will prefer, and i seriously dunno how big is their L or M or S, i will try to find out, but juz gimme the shirt size u prefer now, and more importantly the colour of the polo tee. any colour will do. if u wan to say brown, i will juz record brown down. at the end of the day, u might juz be the only 1 with brown as ur vote. juz some colour tat can be named(like red, sky blue, dark blue, black, white, pink, purple, etc.) and not some html code(like #FF8800) then i will juz record down. one more thing, DUN TAG AND SAY ITS UR VOTE, coz for a simple reason, u can impersonate on the tagboard.
(this is a test for democracy, prove tat it works.)

on friday me will post the result with prove of the result(i.e. ur vote) here[uploaded as img]. if i dun receive his/her vote, then too bad. seriously i wont spread the news, help spread it. then it will be decided, and no other further arguments, no further changes. so tell me either thru sms, or msn ASAP, latest fri. and help spread the news. i seriously wont spread the news. so if u guys wan take up the initiative and help me i will be very happy =).

erm and i will get it ordered before the start of the terms. yah tats all.

if ur interested in knowing how they calculate the price for the colours, can ask me. and plz dun ask me how big is their M or L or S. i will give all of u the same answer. i dunno. if i know, i will have posted it on the blog. so check out the blog for frequently =).

XD

2007-06-03T14:22:00.000+08:00

Painting CIP

2007-05-25T22:50:00.000+08:00

Hello 1AA2. These are the details regarding our class CIP next week. Please do take note. VERY important.

Acres Wildlife Rescue Centre (AWRC)

INTRODUCTION TO THE ACRES WILDLIFE RESCUE CENTRE

“The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans any more than black people were made for white, or women created for men.” - Alice Walker

Project Objectives
The Acres Wildlife Rescue Centre (AWRC) will be the first wildlife rescue centre in Singapore and will help save and improve the lives of vast numbers of animals.

The 2 hectare AWRC will be located in Sungei Tengah Agrotech Park. With your support, the AWRC will:
Help end the cruel illegal wildlife trade through serving as an educational facility.
The AWRC will create awareness on the illegal wildlife trade and other animal protection issues. Provide a safe haven for animals rescued from the illegal wildlife trade.
Serve as a platform to promote volunteerism in Singapore and globally.
Complement and assist the Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority’s enforcement efforts to tackle the illegal wildlife trade.

Acres has obtained the piece of land for the AWRC from the Singapore Land Authority and construction began in January 2007. The AWRC is scheduled to begin operations by the end of June 2007.

Dates and Time: 29 - 31 May, Tuesday to Thursday. 9am - 3pm.

How to get there: Just to note, we will be meeting as a class at 8am at Choa Chu Kang MRT control station every morning. (so yeah, you have to tap you ezlink card to get out first) Please DO NOT be late! If there is anyone who wishes to make his/her own way to Qian Hu Fish Farm, please do let me know in advance (by SMS).

We'll be meeting the coordinator/s at the entrance of Qian Hu Fish Farm (71, Jalan Lekar, Sungei Tengah S698950)

1. Take bus 172 from CCK interchange
2. Alight in front of Home Team Academy (Old Choa Chu Kang Road)
3. Walk about 1km to Qian Hu Fish Farm (follow sign and turn into Jalan Lekar)

What to Bring: (yes, we do have to buy our own painting materials)

Per Person =
- paint roller
- cloth (to clean the wall before painting)
- newspaper (to lay on the floor to avoid dripping paint on it)
- masking tape (to cover the windows and switches to prevent painting on them)
- insect repellent
- drinking water
- lunch

Every 2 people = (you do not have to form pairs, just bring whatever you have)
- paint tray
- paint brush
- pole (to fit the paint roller in to reach higher parts of the wall which is 3m in height)

Therefore, we are appealing to the class:-
Whoever has paint rollers, masking tape, paint trays, paint brushes and poles, please do volunteer your items so that we can cut costs. If you can bring extra, please do! Don't worry, you'll get your stuff back. For those who are able to bring any of these items for the CIP, please message me ASAP! Prefarably by tmr (Sat) night. (Please do not tag on the tagboard as I will not be checking the class blog and please do not call me on my hp too because I will be having choir practice. Thks.)

For those who do not own these items mentioned in the previous paragraph, we will be purchasing them for you and will bring them to the wildlife centre on 29 May. However, you do need to pay for the materials OR the cost will be split among everyone (have not decided yet).

I hope that it is understood that we will each bring cloth, newspapers and personal effects. These will not be provided as a class.

Dress Code:
- 29 and 31 May = Anything
- 30 May = Collegeiate - the tee with the big letters ACJC on it (however u spell it :P)
The press will be going down on that day so wearing the AC shirt will allow us to be easily recognised. If for any reason you aren't able to wear your collegiate, please turn up in a college-based tee. And apparently, we're not the only volunteers. There are other groups as well.

Please be reminded that for all days, covered shoes are required. So please do not turn up in slippers.

Confirmed List

Dates indicated are the ones which we are available on.

1. Grace Wang (29, 30, 31)
2. Michelle Tan (29, 30, 31)
3. Crystal Bay (30)
4. Claire Leong (30, 31)
5. Rowena Chin (29, 31)

If there are enquiries, feel free to message me. Thanks for reading through the ENTIRE post, I know it's real long and wordy. But it's for a good cause. I'm sure that all of us have a passion for volunteerism and yearn to do our part for the community so that we can be ambassadors of CIP and work towards a greater good! HAHA. >.<

anyway, anyone have time can write out our names on the side, and save all the pics into a photobucket acc or sth, coz if we direct link once the designer deletes her pics our template dies.

i think we should change the template
can i change it? dont worry i'll get a nice one
but if you all dont like can always change :)
anything else will be better than the current one, anyway.

we have no more tests until end of school!
except for chinese, we have a bit of our promos on the last week
