HIHS once more

Back in Holy Innocent High School



had the opportunity to be back at HIHS last friday.... been 16 years since i last set foot in there... looks 70% - 80% the same back then when mei and i were both in sec 1....


the canteen.... with a sofa area and newspaper stand.... maybe i can suggest this for esss.... =P ... the cca notice boards on the pillars look good too... very brightly painted which makes the whole place looks vibrant... likey...=)



the school logo.... still the same ... =)




basketball court when mei and i had our volleyball practice... yes, both mei and i were in the volley ball cca for one whole year yet at the end of the year, all we could do is serve the ball from one side of the court to the other side of the court.... had never ever played a single proper game at all though we had practices every fri from 330-530pm if i din remember wrongly....


so why would mei and i end up in the volley ball cca leh??? cos in HIHS, every pupil needs to be in 2 ccas, one sports and one club... we were rejected by badminton which both of us went for trial... the other sports ccas such as basketball and netball etc all seems too kungho for us le....so by elimination and bycca selection, we ended up in volley ball lo.... and for club, we were in computer club... hahahaha.... also dun remember what i had learnt.... must be very minimal also bah.... else how come i am such an idiot when it comes to computer stuff leh... =(




the field where we assembled for morning assemblies.... seem abit smaller now.... always thought that the field was damn super big especially when i need to run from one end to the other end





building colours are still in the same shape of blue and white.... but i couldn't locate our classroom, 1E...it seems to have been converted into one of the many ccas room liao...











the toilet on the ground floor... looks totally different from what i remember.... i thought they had this tiled seating area where mei and i used to lie down to read books while waiting for cca to start ...so either they had renovated the toilet or the toilet that we frequent was not this one....











the principal when we were both studying there in 1994 .... i could still remember that i mistook one of the cleaners for the principal lo.... cos both of them were of similar built and looked rather identical to me lo....








so why was i back in HIHS leh????

i was tasked to bring 3 pupils there for an art workshop on tape sculpturing....



so what is tape sculpturing leh????

tape sculpturing is ....




like these two &












these two &






and this one lo....







looks impressive hor??? but actually very easy to do de.... but not a very environment friendly activity as it requires alot alot alot of sticky tapes....






first, wrap the part of the body / object that is to be replicated with cling wrap.... not very comfy was the feedback... told them to just treat it as slim wrap then.... hahahaha.....










second, paste lots and lots of sticky tape over the cling wrap till you have at least 10 layers....








third, using a pair of bandage scissors, cut the artwork open from one side...



last, use sticky tape to join back the opening and then pile more sticky tape on the whole art work....


think that it's quite an interesting and easy to make art form...



this kind of art form is actually inspired by Mark Jenkins.... check out his work in the links below... =) ...very interesting....
