      check with hokkien dictionary ?

      \"hao tai\" does sound like a hokkien word which my grandfather used to scold me & my siblings when we were small, for being.. well.. stupid (not that we were, but in his eyes lah!).

      why does strparent call the GEPpers \"stupid\"? thot this should be the last word one would use to describe the GEPpers?! :scratchhead:

              Finally received the NJC rejection letter.

              Well at least there is a closure to the whole saga.
              Time to move on.
              yes, time to move on. PSLE is round the corner....

                ya, maybe strparent meant \"haolian\" but typed wrongly as \"haotai\".. but \"haotai\" definitely does not mean \"haolian\" as, once in a while, i still hear older folks use this term to reprimand people for doing stupid & silly things.. and yes, vlim, it is indeed a very OLD word used only by very OLD people! strparent??? ๐Ÿฆ† :siam:

                    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcFfqmGVoLU&feature=related

                    Did your ds secure his dsa using this song ?

                    That's abit too cutesy for DSA audition, right? ๐Ÿ˜œ He did a classical piece. I have a feeling that they placed great consideration on the portfolio, not just the audition.

                    but ่ต›้ฉฌ IS a classical piece..
                    not that i like the way it's played. a bit too showy for me.

                    ps. can ask how do students submit a portfolio for music? you mean like exam results & competition achievements, etc? thanks ~ ๐Ÿ™‚

                      and to quote strparent... \"And as we all know, most GEPpers a bit 'haotai', will mostly choose RI or HCI ( RGS or NYGH ) over NJC most of time\"...

                      so a GEPper (or any other kid) who chooses to study at RI or HCI (RGS or NYGH) instead of NJC is considered 'stupid'? OMG!!! :faint:

                        haha me too long time never heard this word! sure brings back some childhood memories ~

                        another word my parents like to use on us is \"Jin Tuh!\" a bit hard to put into english phonics but i think it translates into ็œŸ่ ข ๐Ÿ˜“
