Recent IMI Activities

The SWS - IMI concert was a blast. The students slogged through many sleepless nights and they did feel proud to be able to showcase their animation to the public.


It was halloween and the symphonic wind members came prepared with horns and all, the conductor also donned on a dracula cape, just to get into the mood of things. Whacky!


Our IMI supporters! We were glad to have our Yr 1s, 2s, and 3s supporting the event!


The folks who made it all happen - Mr Vijayan, Ms Jean, Mr Rick and Mr. George. Thanks!



CCN - Fund Raising

Every freshmen must go through this and our Year 1s did a good job by selling candies, healthy grass jelly, and providing car wash services. Their "le-long le-long" could be heard even in Level 7.



Student-Staff Campus Run

It was quite an experience to run with the students and I didn't know they can run sooooo fast.

Alright, due to request of a certain someone I am asked to do this. Many of you don't really know me. I am a year 3 student who is in 3D options. (Juniors and freshies, choose 3D. You won't regret.)
Okay, back to main topic. Here I am with Randford in Vietnam working. We are asked to do highly classified work which can't really be disclosed to the outside work, but I am going to say it anyway. We were asked to do the English website of their company. And we picked up an assignment on the way which was designing poker cards which was very interesting if I say so myself.

Only been here for around a week. So don't have much to show. Will put more pictures when we get more pictures. So I am just gonna put a few cause I am still in the office. -.-

To you know who asked me to blog: I have done it. Will do it again in future. You know who you are.XD

Me and Randford at Beef Noodle shop which Bill Clinton went to.

Aint sure if i posted this here already, but im still gonna do it anyway. In an attempt to liven up this blog a little. Enjoy. =)


Every year, English teachers from across the USA can submit their collections of actual analogies and metaphors found in high school essays. These excerpts are published each year to the amusement of teachers across the country. Here are last year's winners.

3. He spoke with the wisdom that can only come from experience, like a guy who went blind because he looked at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it and now goes around the country speaking at high schools about the dangers of looking at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it.

4. She grew on him like she was a colony of E. coli, and he was room-temperature Canadian beef.

5. She had a deep, throaty, genuine laugh, like that sound a dog makes just before it throws up.

6. Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever.

8. The revelation that his marriage of 30 years had disintegrated because of his wife's infidelity came as a rude shock, like a surcharge at a formerly surcharge-free ATM machine.

9. The little boat gently drifted across the pond exactly the way a bowling ball wouldn't.

10. McBride fell 12 stories, hitting the pavement like a Hefty bag filled with vegetable soup.

11. From the attic came an unearthly howl. The whole scene had an eerie, surreal quality, like when you're on vacation in another city and Jeopardy comes on at 7:00 p.m. instead of 7:30

12. Her hair glistened in the rain like a nose hair after a sneeze.

13. The hailstones leaped from the pavement, just like maggots when you fry them in hot grease.

14. Long separated by cruel fate, the star-crossed lovers raced across the grassy field toward each other like two freight trains, one having left Cleveland at 6:36 p.m. traveling at 55 mph, the other from Topeka at 4:19 p.m. at a speed of 35 mph.

15. They lived in a typical suburban neighborhood with picket fences that resembled Nancy Kerrigan's teeth.

16. John and Mary had never met. They were like two hummingbirds who had also never met.

17. He fell for her like his heart was a mob informant, and she was the East River.

18. Even in his last years, Granddad had a mind like a steel trap, only one that had been left out so long, it had rusted shut.

19. Shots rang out, as shots are won't to do.

20. The plan was simple, like my brother-in-law Phil. But unlike Phil, this plan just might work.

21. The young fighter had a hungry look, the kind you get from not eating for a while.

22. He was as lame as a duck. Not the metaphorical lame duck, either, but a real duck that was actually lame, maybe from stepping on a land mine or something.

23. The ballerina rose gracefully en Pointe and extended one slender leg behind her, like a dog at a fire hydrant.

24. It was an American tradition, like fathers chasing kids around with power tools.

25. He was deeply in love. When she spoke, he thought he heard bells, as if she were a garbage truck backing up.



Yours Truly, Sincerely, Absolutely. =)

Hello guys (:

Here's another attempt to liven up the imi blog (: Hopefully the people that gets attracted here aren't the silly kids that spam the tag board. Very fun meh? 0.o

Anyway yeah, as for me, year 3 is treating me rather nicely (don't really know about the rest). We're currently having our MP/SIP which is to either do our Major Project first or go for internship. I'm on my Major Project now, which isn't too bad cause mine isn't filled with the need to code (thank god). The rest are mostly on their internships now though. Some say its boring, some say its friggin huge load of work, but yeah it all ends up as good experience I guess? (positive thinking positive thinking!!) :D

Oh and theres this thing called OSIP, meaning overseas internship where you do your internships well... overseas. Okay that was quite self explanatory, but yeah. For this batch, there will be internships in Vietnam, Bangkok, Aus and if mine confirms and works out, Oregon. Quite exciting really (:

So... yeah.

Hello everybody ! Sorry for all the delay in updating the blog.

Well anyway, we had a big and interesting visit from Pasir Ris Secondary School on the 11th of June. The students brought along a huge level of excitement, although they didn't really open up for any queries or questions. Haha. But they were an interesting bunch.

Together with Amalina and Ms Natasha, the three of us were made to 'entertain' our groups of students in the specialist labs. They went through a series of websites like the TP IMI website, yeap, this exact proud blog of ours ! and plus the iMinds website as well as a couple of games produced by our very own students in IMI.

We are very sure they left with the 'constant echoing' of the name IMI aka I AM I ! Haha. Had a good time indeed :)

A treat of photos for you !

Botaks!

Clarence and Kim Choon came by to visit and "show off" their new hairdo (after much persuasion of course). Yo, IND alumni, if you have photos to share, esp the botaks one, do email us ok :)

Before I start today's post, I would like to announce that yours truly, Zul, along with three other IMI juniors, Valenisha, Kok Peng and Tian Seng, have emerged successful and is now a part of the main committee of IITSC! :D

Well, sorry for the topic drift. Today, primary six students from Pei Tong Primary School, (if you don't know where it is, neither did I, it's somewhere in Clementi) gave IMI a visit and boy, were they a fiesty group!


Assisted with the October Intake Freshmen, Edward and Eendra. They met the kids way earlier than I did so from the looks of it, Double E did a great job! Kudos, boys!

Well, the kids were a loud bunch but one can't help but notice their shyness and unwillingness to open up. What did the army of IMI lecturers to do?

Call the most gregarious IMI student and demand that he make a fool of himself.









So finally got the kids to participate by showing them indeed it was fun. Most of them answered, "oh I know this one! I play at shopping mall before!" proving that what we do at IMI touch lives. AHHH.

Getting the kids to play together was fun. It was amazing how even though they're young, they manage to spread work. It was evident that teamwork was there.



Love,
Zul
