Looking back at some poly highlights now that I've graduated











Looking through the photos on others' instagram made me wonder, "what other memories have we not captured on film?" Even if we did, I no longer saved/printed them anymore. Maybe I should start doing it. But what is all these for if we are living in the present?

Purple Parade + Inclusive Carnival

When my final finals paper is tomorrow but school is not everything. Grades are not everything. It is all about time management and spreading happiness. What does the world need right now? 
Even things like taking, editing and posting photos on instagram takes time and planning, what! HAHA a lot of effort has been put into our instagram and facebook (@puzzles.sg). 

May the community look out for one another more in 2017.

Injured in a physical competition
I had a dilemma
And a really huge one
It was pain vs suzana
It's about what I want

Honestly I dont give a damn
If we couldn't make it
But everyone was ready and brought their cam
I knew I couldn't let it slip

You see, they require two females
If not we'd be disqualified
So I couldn't just bail
My balls automatically solidified

If I were to describe to you
It's like pouring alcohol on a flesh and lighting a match
It's not burning nor is it cool
But the worst is having a patch

The patch sticks like a glue
Its required before I could wear number 4
So too bad boo hoo
The pressure hurts to the core

What is this pressure?
Is it the pain of the exposed flesh?
Or is it the disappointed faces of those who were so sure?
We went through the sequence and planned to dash
( Yea, I was torturing myself with a bash)

They look at me limp
"are you okay?"
I laughed uncontrollably like a pimp
"A O K"

"you can go overseas with your friends after you turn 18"

A week after 20/09/15 also known as my first legal week, climbers + the girls group went on a 2.50RM trip. 

They weren't lying about the pain-balls.

We're going on a trip, on our favourite rocketship
It's time to go to the next stage of my adventure life- water.

The last few semester breaks were spent on hanging out, working, climbing and cadets. This time, I took up a course which was a day after my last paper and it was the best weekend I had for weeks.

While my friends went for kayaking, I was still in the sea, just with a different vehicle. HAHAHA. The sponging of heavy modules at once process was unhealthy for my body and having and 5 hours of theory lesson on both days of the weekend wasn't helpful but was sure exciting. As I flipped through the pages, it seemed familiar. I couldn't put my finger on it until lunch. I used to help my Cadet Inspector buddy prepare for his theory test and he has his licence now. (That gave me so much hope that I will pass this)

ps; 13 knots cos YOLO. Yes, I said yolo.

I chose happiness




"Finals in two days and I chose happiness"

Yes, I am very proud of my video skills and quality of video (High Def WOOOO). This was shot for fun and memories before Nadira left for a year. There was too much food that I had to painstakingly select the 20% pretty ones. Since I like to make a list and write and record videos, I merged all of them and here it is.

Leading a group is so awkward
Welcome to the polytechnic stage where you get to experience a lot of different kinds of camps.
 I am in my second year now but the role of a GL (group leader) is still very new and girl I AM SCARED DEEP DOWN.

So this year, it was really interesting to be part of the helpers for ODAC (Outdoor Adventure Club) training. And it was really awkward for me, I think the freshies felt the vibe too. So throughout the games and group interaction, I swear I was not prepared for this. Well, for you guys who have gone through multiple camps, you would get the general idea but I don't. What I resorted to was to be the lame one because that's just my natural state, like 99% of people i hung out with said so. And my partner Javier decided to join in the fun. The thing is, our group was "moving around/competing" with Deyang and Min Xuan's group and hell they are crazy too. (originally wanted to use the word 'were' but they are/is, whatever).

How to turn a boring game fun
Our first station was about making shapes with a long rope as a team while we took away your senses (visual, hearing, verbal) and I didn't read the long ass training proposal details (oh why suzana why) but my lucky stars helped me out because I played this game in secondary 3 phew! Okay so the freshies were all blinded and muted except for the supreme leader in that round and instead of helping out my group, I went to entertain the other group with my mighty distractions. Before I realised, the other GLs had grass with them as they couldn't touch girls so they came out with their own weapons. One dude almost slapped me when I blew in his ear or something. And that was basically entertainment.

What to do with extra time
Surprisingly, our two groups were so fast that we ended early at the second station. It's good to have that teamwork but gosh we had 30 minutes extra and we with the help of the station masters, we merged groups and played the idk what is it named, "Guess who started the move" where 1 person is taken away and has to find out who starts the move that everyone is doing. And they were again, surprisingly good at it, can be Mediacorp's actors and actresses already.


How to remember names
You have a bunch of new friends going round introducing yourself and you try to mentally take note of every single of of it and its hard in the given time we had. And in the future trainings, they'll be like "Hey Suzana, remember me?". So I had such an intelligent plan. And the plan was to disguise my name so that every training they would get mind-screwed. It was a big fail, they figured it out eventually. My point is, its just hard to remember names so please gimme some tips if you have any thank you. (maybe I'm so used to having juniors having name tags on their uniform which is so convenient for GLs)

At the end of the training, made some lovely friends and I hope they learnt a little or two from this "teamwork training". It was successful due to those who came with an open mind and the organised and hardworking committee.

ps; the blue t-shirt is familiar isn't it?

Silent pledge
I experienced listening with my eyes and talking with my hands.
We started our silent pledge in school before we traveled around Singapore. It was one of the most eye-opening days because literally, we walked in the shoes of the hearing impaired. My first 5 minutes challenge was not the ayam penyet- because I could point to the picture to order, but the lady who took the order and said to her colleague in a mother tongue “got mouth but cannot open to use”. I guess I would get her frustration as she might see it as a form of disrespect, and I didn’t even try explaining cause I had no clue on how I should start. I walked away. So I didn’t buy drinks because the words were so high and small I couldn’t possibly point accurately. That was my first 10 minutes of silence.
I can truly empathize from watching videos without sound, trying to lip read to the stares we received on public transports. It felt like we were a walking anomaly amongst the talking.
 
My brain and hands coordinated the most today and it wasn't a blue day like CLEOPATRA's (our group name) colour.
 
I loved it. I love that silence does not limit us from talking about anything under the sun. I love that signing with a group in public does not make me feel any discomfort. I love that I fell in love with this beautiful language.
 
ps; I missed my heartbeat performance :( as it was the exact timing as NCDCC 10 Years Day Parade.

 yes, its tiring rushing in and out of camp sacrificing a little of both, but this is Suzana being happy. Shall write more in a new post.

tank with the chiggas, angmoh, pinoy



This is my first dinner on 25th of December out with a bunch of friends and it was an enjoyable night indeed. I tried to capture everything before 2am in this video but I was caught up either with the cup/ball games, the snapchat war, video games, twister, continuous eating from 6pm to 6am. There were so much food that even when our tanks were full, consumption did not stop.

Although Christmas commonly comes together with pork or turkey, everything was double confirmed halal with the specific stamp (except for one thing which I didn't touch). And I am the only Muslim but they still invited me awww. Gifts exchange was nice too, it has been awhile.

Things I learnt?
Climbing improves your flexibility thus you will perform better and sustain longer on the mat than before climbing. The team climbers attained the top 3 positions HURAYYY! Having stronger arms does not mean you are faster in handling cups. However, having stronger arms means you can pick friends up when they fall too right? HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA OK GOODBYE.

Then it dawned on me, I feel daunted by the prospect of living life with a false success
Should I buy urban skates or a climbing set? Should I save raya money or spend it on both? Should I (finally) touch work money and splurge? I enjoy the sweet adrenaline when I'm on the lofty rock wall. I didn't complete the 15m yesterday at kismis tower. Till we meet again. So many things going on that I did not even sign up for the kayak team which has two extremely physically challenging trainings per week. And there's an adventure camp coming up on September and I deeply want to go for it as well as Fire fighting course. I just hope they don't clash! please. please.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Btw, the video above was only a wall level 5B+. It was the first Lithan vs Suzana challenge also known as our warm up. This was in early March this year.

A new beginning

Again, Im entering a new place. Again, I have to adapt to this new (&green) environment. I need to reconsider and reflect on myself. And everyone has/is/going to go through this phase, not just me. A much larger school with extra amazing facilities. Im very thankful that we had our BAOC a week before school. Just in time for me to analyze the blueprint and memorize shortcuts. Not to forget, dancing, cheering and singing all the time. If I were to describe my group, Graceful Gaia, I would use "crazy". Crazy and very different characters and level of enthusiasm. I always get green for my house/titan colour, my favourite :) As we were shuffling to stations of games around the school, I suggested to take photos with nature in the background and eversince, all our photos had trees/grass/human/cake/sky lul. A new beginning does not mark a new identity. "Be yourself".

NCDCC in another point of view


My crazy group which not only entertain my nonsense, but joins in. 
Even my jokes from year 2000 were not criticized and everyone admits on our flaws such as being annoying /talkative /loud/ hyper/ vain/ lack of GTA skill/ traumatized from flying a plane. We devoured on our well deserved pizza, donuts and chocolates at Lit han’s.

Hari Raya 2013.




Hari Raya; the only festival that I’d never miss. Even if I have any upcoming examination, truckloads of homework or is just not in the mood that year, I will beg my mum to go to my cousin’s place as fast as possible. For the entire fasting month (Ramadhan), I did not have the chance to do our annual shopping for baju kurung. So for the whole of day 1, we became completely high from all the coke and fnn. Farhan faris fazli were our photographers for the day and they got exhausted so quickly. It’s amazing how we can gobble down all the kuehs even after we declared “bloated”. Too much fizzy drinks= an hour of rest. Well, I survived the day with everyone teasing each other on how fat we're are gonna be in the near future. Actually, we were looking out for families with a “Red and white” colour theme but didn’t spot any. And, I finally got to see Ali after 2 years and he didn’t recognise me *applause*. I am so comfortable with them and would not have to worry about anyone making judgements on me. Oh what positive influences we are towards the younger cousins. They will grow up beautiful because we sorta have similar genes. hahahahahaha.

My first skool.
Whats better than learning through experiencing it yourself? Nothing! 


I wasn’t really involved in the logistics for the first time. There were 3 activities: Games, Role play and Handcraft. The kindergarteners were so tiny I felt good. Hahahahah really mini. The most hyper one was Energetic Benedict. That’s what I called him. Though he got reprimanded byy his form teacher, I told him that it was fine to run around. We got comfortable with them till I just carried them as they were lazy bums. They’re actually intelligent but innocent. I tickled them individually (He zong, Peter and Balqis). I was caught off guard when they teamed up and started poking me everywhere. Dammit I had to control myself from squeezing their cheeks! 

Pui Shang just turned 16! She didn’t mind this project and didnt use her birthday as an excuse. She really enjoyed herself getting bullied by the cute boy. What did I contribute? I brought the necessary items plus a prop for the play. Apparently it was crowded in the classroom and only half of us could stay. While the rest were playing with paint,


Education is a lifelong journey whose destination expands as you travel.
I unconsciously influenced this boy antil he shouted “Jan from January. HAHAHHAHA, Jan!”.
