Yay. I am feeling so high now (:
Lets post photos for our preparation for the Y3s handover presents (:
Charmaine look so focused on whatever she is doing
Hmm.. so does xiao zhou
This is a messy table in Macs. Guess how much time we spent in it.
On a more interesting note,
Ta-dah. The paper crowns of dyb-ians. (:
And yes, I’m not so dumb to put my own photo in it. (:
Now, let’s look at the presents our juniors prepared for us (:
Followed my the Macs dyb dinner. I’m so happy so many people turned up. Yay. Thank you to all who did because you made my day! (:
For all those who missed it, no worries for there will be more dyb outings in the future. (hint hint to xinmin)
And a group photo to commemorate the occasion (: With the exception of Zhang Yang who left early, everyone else is here.
Did I mention JY? It was most fun to have her around (: Ask around for full details (:
And for those of you who missed this today, this is JY dressed in pyjamas today! (:
Lalalala (:

Yay i'm feeling bored so i'm here to post again (:
Let's start with a story of a little girl call charmaine with pictures to illustrate the story better (:
This little girl was discussing a certain geog coastal report with her friend. she was trying to tell her friend how she drew her beach profile so she came up with this:
it's obviously a messy diagram so obviously her friend cannot understand what she is trying to say
thus come the second diagram which looks like this:
admittedly, this diagram is more understandable with more labelling but how could you know what she wanted to say?
the third diagram who looks like this:
is even worse off then the first one, though much neater in comparison. Apparently she improves the skills of her drawing but not how her drawing help to explain things.
Frustrated, the little girl came up with her fourth diagram:
which is so much much better than all her other diagrams. Haven't your teacher taught you to draw diagrams with neat and proper labelling? And your math teacher will strangle you if you fail to account what is x!!
Moral of the story: please do not forget to apply what you learn in school to your everyday life.
What was her friend doing you ask?
She was laughing at her ridiculous drawing as she already knew what she was trying to say since the first drawing. (:
End of the story of the litle girl name charmaine. (:
Xinmin says....

Xinmin: DYB blog is a rotting blog.
Me: How can u say that?
Xinmin:Dyb blog, rotting blog. It rhymes eh!
Me: -.-
WHOOOO 200TH POST!
6/20/2009/ 6:15 PM
YAY IT'S DYB'S 200TH POST! :D just shows how much time has passed and so many things happened.
anyway, forgot to post this before.
All Dyb-ians, if you dont know this song, better start learning now! it's now the official DYB song!
to those who's absolutely baffled by this, this song became famous in dyb when the year 3s and 4s came together at my place to make cupcakes for the seniors and end up getting real high in my karaoke room, with all the guys demonstrating how to dance. afterwards, the girls began to learn as well and we threw our faces while performing for senior high dyb as part of our encouragement for syf!
those who dont know how to dance can consult guanyang as a personal trainer. he knows this song quite well and even showed off some of the dance steps when we revealed what we were about to do.
YES so now regardless whether you're a year 1 or some botak senior in NS or whatever, learn how to sing, and most importantly, DANCE to this song now! It's the official DYB song hahaha. (: Hope to see juniors dancing to it for us 2 years later before syf hahahaha. :D
HAPPY DYB-BLOG-200TH-POST DAY! :D
something to liven up the otherwise completely dead blog
6/18/2009/ 11:38 AM
Hello.
kind soul that i am, i've decided to invest some of my holiday time (otherwise used to mug/slack) to update the blog with a lot of very very very very very late pictures (don't kill me!) and this time, instead of extremely humiliating pictures that the others are so obsessed with putting up, im posting nice pictures! :D (how nice of me)
oh, and a very late congratulations to May Ping, on being appointed the new Treasurer of DHSSHCO! (:
good for her, not good for us at the receiving end.
i guess it's financially healthy for the orchestra, having an auntie for treasurer, hahaha.
for example, in the recent first ever CIG (CO Inaugural Games) for year 4 and 5, we, the combined group of DYB + DJY, won 1st prize! (duh, it's dyb leh) and what do we get for being first, after getting extremely wet in the first game, running like siao around school for 1 hour and getting negative points for that (-240), and crawling around blindly like fools etc etc?
a prize that MAYPING bought, costing if im not wrong around $1.45 plus minus 10 cents[edit] IT'S $1.95, thank you very much for telling me it's 50 cents more than it's worth, i feel so comforted now [/edit] some waffle thingy. one packet costs approx. 8 CENTS. after distributing, average person gets 2 packets aka 16 CENTS.
moral of the story is: never get the auntie to buy the prize for any competition in the future.
okay moving on. here are the pics, earliest from passing down 08. not including this year chuguo. (opps i realised i was supposed to post pics for last year gongyan and chuguo, hehe)
this is in reverse chronological order:
This was when the few of us went to watch the Yong Siew Toh Conservatory orchestra 1 week before syf to learn more about tai2 feng1 and how to present ourselves on stage. They were great btw. :D
The board that our dearest seniors did for the Syf batch! :D thank you seniors for all the hard work you've put in to make this for us, and also the older seniors who left messages for us! (:
This is another food demonstration. this was taken during dinner before syf rehearsal at SCH. it was a normal packet of chicken rice, enough for a normal human to eat.
now look at.... This is shilun's chicken rice. compare and contrast please. need i say anything more? we all know shilun's appetite (:
now for gongyan 09 pics....
TLS and Ben Goh! hahaha ben goh looks super excited to take a picture with tl. (:
Some random shot with dyb girls and tl. it was supposed to be the syf batch 09 cello girls pic, but somehow wenyi ended up there.
year 4s bullying xinmin. hahaha. she doesnt mind being bullied though.
DHSCODYB YEAR 4 2009 BATCH PHOTO (without bevie though. she left beforehand)
year 4 girls shot in music atrium while waiting to board the bus.
random shot: introducing the newest member of the dyb family! Jin Jia from tby decide to transfer over to cello yay! (: he looks super engrossed though. this is the hardworking spirit we hope to see in all DYB-ians! :D
and introducing the bad influences passed on to dyb guys from Joey and Xing Zhong and Samuel:
From ezco camp last year: charmaine was drawing before we were simply too slack.
cute signboard of diyinbu. haha so cute right! :D
charmaine's portrait of kianming. hahaha.
charmaine's portrait of TLS. er, it's supposed to be cute, right?
us helping to clear up some stuff after ezco one day. look at the pyramid of drinks that shilun has stacked up. (it toppled afterward hahaha)
look at the amount of bread left over. tsk tsk. we tried giving away to lots of random people though.
look at mr lee's bass! haha, he found a green heart shaped balloon and decided to stick to the bass' head. super funny and cute hahaha. (:
THINGS TO DO DURING DAZU WHEN YOU ARE BORED AND GUO LAO SHI'S OFF TO SCOLD SOME OTHER YUEZU:
1. Read a book. you can always catch up on the twilight series while reading during dazu, as seen here by our model Zhang Yang.
2. Feeling tired from burning midnight oil trying to do last minute homework? Have no fear. Sleep during dazu to regain your energy! Warning: do this only when you're sitting in the last 2 rows. Does not work in the first few rows. If unsure of which sleeping position to employ, consult the picture above, a comfortable sleeping position as shown by our model Yu Long.
Presenting TLS' teacher's day present! Gift does not come with xinmin nor charmaine. We were at paya macs folding stars until super late! i think there's like 470 stars or something. not sure.
xinmin displaying her violent streak. the cameraman's life was in danger but she still risked it to take the shot. how courageous!
The pretty handmade photoframes the year 3s'08 did for the seniors! we stayed in sch until super late to do it. :D see we're so nice! (hint hint year 3s'09)
DEEEEE-WHYYYY-BEEEEE!! (:
okay that's all for the time being. Now, i'm super tired from posting so many pics, and i shall retire for a nap. Zzz.
Some more photos! (:
5/09/2009/ 11:05 PM
And since I'm so happy today, I shall post all the pictures I wanted to post long time ago.. Lalalalala
Introduction to some scandalous affairs in dyb Everytime we walk home together, these two will always end up with each other..
What is yiqi trying to do to Xinmin?
Doesn't this scene reminds you of when a mother is trying to give birth and the father will be holding onto the mother's hand to support her?
What are Zhangyang and Shilun doing? O.O
Charmaine and Darryl during kangle night Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Yulong and Zhangyang sleeping together.. Their posture is a little funny..
Other Random Photos Jy and SiewEng's handover present
Zhangyang attempting to play bass but turned away when the camera appeared
Jy skin colour is the same as the egg!!
Alex trying to imitate the pose of the statue behind
Jy and Charmaine insisted on taking a photo with Zhangyang because they are all wearing pink shirts. This was when Zhangyang is still shorter than Jy. Jy and Charmaine bend downwards to be the same height as Zhangyang.
A Stitch on Jy's jacket hood. Attempting to remove it or reach but could not (Hands too short?)
Yueheng and Charmaine looks creepy and ghostly Supper after Malaysia's performance
Samuel attempting to jump to take photo which failed dismally Jy's glorious moment: she's taller than Samuel
Xinmin wearing Jy's spectacles Xinmin is all red. :) She looks oddly weird with spectacles
Sleeping Samuel.. he look kind of sick though
Another weird sleeping pose of Zhangyang
Jy standing in a very sexy position

GO SENIOR HIGH! :D CLEAN SWEEP :D junior high'll be giving you moral support in class :D
DYB is short for Di Yin Bu, chinese for Lower Strings Ensemble. We are the cellists and bassists of Dunman High School Chinese Orchestra Singapore. In 1994, we left the di deng yue zu the String Ensemble (Hus) to form our very own DYB! We are guided by teachers Mdm Tian Ling and Mr Lee Tsu Hock, and conductors Mr TTK and Mr Quek Ling Kiong.
DYBians are known for their lively spirit and close-knit ties. Even after graduating, DYBians still enjoy returning to our many gatherings, and fenzus/shichengs. Here we will introduce the DYBians of '08, and our lovely seniors/alumni!
