My phone cover! ):

2008-11-16T00:49:00.004+08:00

Next week is going to be pretty tiring.
We'll be having string practices everyday and i'll be busy preparing presents too.
And i'll be packing for my trip also. Woosh.

Going to get my butt up in 6 hours to head to pasir ris.
I can't wait (:
Got reminded by athirah that our release of combi will be on the 19th November,
Which is this coming wednesday.
I really hope i'll be taking economics, i'm super interested in economics!
There's really not a need for me to bother too much about JC or even university.
I'll just be wasting my time daydreaming about life there.
I'll just have to study hard and everything will just fall into place, hopefully.

Oh yes there's something important i need to do now...

What: This is an acknowledgement for my dear phone cover that cracked.
Who: My phone cover.
Where: TKGS central stairways at classroom block, left side, at the crack.
When: 14th November 2008, 2:58 p.m.
How: It was in between my scores, and when i flipped my file, it fell.
Why: I'm super sad cause i love it a lot.

Can someone buy me a new phone cover? :/

Because of some special demands, I have changed my blog song with the help of weiling.
So, there's no need for everyone to mute their speakers already! (: yay.
Okay, enjoy yups! (:

Not sleeppy.

2008-11-14T00:59:00.003+08:00

I'm sitting in front of the computer, cross legged, hands on the keyboard.
My mind is in a whirl and I can't get to sleep.
The radio's playing hard rock songs.
The room is dark and my sister is sound asleep.

Doesn't this sound like a typical starting to a story?
I didn't think of it this way, until i read it. (:

But seriously, i can't get to sleeeeeeep.

Studies first
String second
Pb third

* i should forever keep this in mind*

Perspective

2008-11-12T23:35:00.002+08:00

This picture's really cool.
You can think of it as a piece of styrofoam in the big ocean
Or
You can think of it as an egg on a big table
It all depends on how you look at it, in which way. Perspective.

I seriously don't know why i went to deviantart and found this picture.
I searched 'Restless'. o.0

Yes, this is how bored i am, that i have to analyse pictures like this (:

Crossing that brick wall

2008-11-12T15:11:00.002+08:00

I can't be bothered about being tired now.
I'm a little dissapointed with myself and upset. ):
I really dissapointed cause i made myself lose my chances. Gahh.
And i really want it this time, really really.
I'm going to cross that brick wall, and not give up.
I'm not going to let anyone affect my chances this time.
Life can be very unfair, But i don't care.
If this is how it's going to be, then i'll work even harder.

Not sleepy, Not tired.

2008-11-12T02:06:00.003+08:00

Rawr. I can't get to sleep. ):
Weiling's method of playing neopets gets me more excited.
So i decided, i should really not play.
My sister's still having her O's tomorrow.
ALL THE BEST MY SISTER! MAKE ME PROUD.(:

The radio's now my best friend, yay.
*this is to show how bored i am now*

Today's a new day.
I have to go for breakfast in 6 hours.
Not really hungry cause i can still taste the sandwich i made.
I have to go for CCA in 8 hours.
I'll be too tired i think.
I have to go for meeting in 9 hours and 20 minutes.
Hopefully, everything will go smoothly (:

I shall try to imagine myself as a pig, and get to bed.
TATA. (:

TJC!

2008-11-12T00:27:00.002+08:00

Don't really know how to start off...
Had 3 speakers today at tjc.
Mr. A. Lim was somewhat more inspiring, to me.
And there were seriously some stuff i learned from his talk.
How to be a better leader & all.
And how grateful i should be feeling about staying in singapore and priviledges.
Seriously touched me :/
After that, it rained, so we couldn't have our survival race around singapore.
Stayed in tjc to play, but it wasn't all that bad (:
This event was really an eye-opener for me.
Everything was on big-scale, and all the games were much more creative and fun.
Shocking, yet exciting.
We had to choke down sandwiches for 1 station.
I almost died, but thanks to my group, i didn't (:
The sandwich tasted horrid and... I MADE IT.
Me and Collin said we we'ren't interested in subway anymore after eating that disgusting sandwich. Hee.
I'll post more on the race and details when i get the pictures (:
After that, we had the closing of the congress and my group went to eat together.

I really liked this congress, really really.
When i first went in yesterday, i didn't think that everyone was going to be friendly and sociable.
I felt a bit "extra" cause everyone was mostly from TJ and were J1s.
In fact, a little scared too.
And i didn't think i'd have this much fun.
But hey, it was really fun. Expect the unexpected (:
Everyone was really really friendly and they were really caring.
Maybe cause everyone's People-Oriented... o.0
I'll promise to keep our group photo for the rest of my life! :D

TJC

2008-11-10T20:52:00.002+08:00

The healthy lifestyle thing was pretty okay.
There were really really a lot of people, so it was a bit of a crowd.
Had dinner at long john silver, quite nice.
Nothing much actually, but i liked the company! (:

Went for TJC student leadership congress today! :D
Most of the people there were J1s, but nice J1s.
Today was really fun, really.
Okay, my group members were really really nice, all of them.
They were all from TJC, VJC and HCI and me and athirah from TKG.
So, we were the youngest. :/
And we had to be "taken care of".
We went job hunting in bugis junction.
It means, we went to ask people whether we could work for them for free.
I worked at ACTION CITY, quite fun.
I was promoting the massagers and the breaduo for 2 hours, tiring but GREAT experience.
We were supposed to be persistent if we couldn't find jobs,
But, me and athirah got lucky, at our second try! (:
Pretty tired right now, but i'm quite excited for tomorrow (:

Mega post

2008-11-07T10:44:00.002+08:00

I shall do a mega post :D

Wednesday
Wednesday was pretty alright, no wait, it was GREAT.
Went for SE practice in the afternoon.
Last minute mr Li said he couldn't make it, so we had our own practice.
It was raining and my socks got wet. :/
After practice went to oschool for lesson.
Can't say i don't like the session cause, the teacher was really nice.
And i had loads of fun.
After not going for lesson for a year, it felt really really A-W-E-S-O-M-E.
But the class was really too big ):
I'm going to try my best to persuade ____ to start teaching again! Rawr.

Thursday
Woke up early in the morning to go back to SMPS.
There was an aquarium next to the general office, woah sey. super high class :D
And i could only spot the frog when i saw it's BUTT.
Super cool frog :D
Everything was like, NEW.
Went to roam around the school with shabrina and rena.
Then went to look for ms azianah, and watch the nativity rehersal.
I think my batch is super lucky cause we were the first batch with dance inside.
AND, i think our dance steps are the nicest :D
Cause our batch was the only batch that ms azianah [the pro dancer] helped us choreo,
Now, the students have to do their own choreo...Hee.
I was super tired, SUPER. But it was a really fun day! :D

Today
Will be heading to school early for pb meeting,
Then heading to padang for healthy lifestyle thingy.
Yesterday, so tired.
Hopefully today still got energy...
I think we'll be playing games, party, hip hop competition, radio djs.
Yups. I'll blog about it, IF IT'S FUN.
I'm sad! I CAN'T PLAY NEOPETS TONIGHT.rawr.
Will be home super late so i'll most probably be so tired i'll just run to bed.

Hopefully, it'll be fun.
If not, i'll just follow carol's method. STONE.
Maybe... HAHAHAS. we'll see.

2008-11-03T23:09:00.003+08:00

Do you have secrets?
Not many. Just a few.
Would you fall in love with a boy younger than you?
Most probably not. I haven't got to know any younger guys that are mature enough :/
Do you enjoy going to school?
Depends on what we're doing in school that day, but, on the whole, YES.
What would you do with a billion dollars?
I would split it with my family and i'll take my share and bathe in it :D
Will you fall in love with your best friend?
Nope, i'm straight.
Which is more blessed-loving someone or being loved by someone?
I'd pick being loved by someone.
Who do you idolize?
At this moment? BEN BERNARKE.
If the person you like is secretly attached, what would you do?
I would kill everyone else and kill myself after that. (:
Is there anything that has made you extremely happy?
Taking the roller coaster ride in Korea for gazillion times.
Do you have any regrets?
Yes. I wish i had more time with my maternal grandfather.
How would you see yourself in 10 years time?
I don't really know. Maybe a musician? or a dancing economist (:
Who are currently the most important people to you?
My grandparents and parents and my asshole sister and my buddies.
What kind of person do you think that tagged you is?
Rachael. She's nice, she's my buddy :D
Would you rather be rich and single or married and poor?
Depends on how much money we are talking about...... :D
What is your favourite colour?
Now i feel like saying it's GREY.
Would you give all in a relationship?
Depends. If it's going to be my life long partner, of course. If you are saying predator-prey relationship... errr. maybe?
What would you do if someone whom you hate asked for your forgiveness?
It'll depend, but i'm sure i'll be able to.
Would you forgive and forget no matter how horrible a thing that someone has done?
Maybe.
Do you prefer bring in a relationship or single?
Depends on my mood. I have my moods. (:

going to oschool for lessons?

2008-11-03T10:42:00.002+08:00

I took this picture from deviantart, cool aye?
Deviantart has loads of really nice pictures, like this one.
Just remembered that there's holiday homework to be done.
I doubt i'll be touching it, i mean, not anytime soon.

Went to have delifrance for breakfast just now, pretty nice i guess.
I didn't really like the tea cause, i didn't mix it properly, my fault.
Having double bass lesson later.
I'm quite excited to start learning the concerto by cimador, sounds nice to play.

Might be signing up for lessons at oschool, YAY.
Can't wait to go for lessons again!
It's been a looonnnggg time. :D

Will be heading back to primary school with shabrina and rena on thursday.
Then, going for the lifestyle thingy on friday with twooeighht.
Going on holiday soon too, and 55th's coming.
Hopefully, everything will go smoothly. And this holiday will be fun. (:

2008-10-27T18:55:00.002+08:00

I hope 55th anniversay will come quickly, end quickly.
I am super not enthusiastic about performing
Cause it's going to be really perspire-ey in the hall...
And cause we're seriously having a lot of practices.
Actually, it's just like normal weeks but it's during the holidays
So i guess it's a lot?

My parents just bought this new printer for my sister.
It took away all my space and i had to repack the room.
So pissed off.
I didn't even have enough time to sleep ):
I'm a person that needs A LOT OF SLEEP.

I went to see this chinese doctor yesterday.
It's cause after playing for TKGS open house on saturday my shoulder was injured.
In fact, it swelled.
I had to acupunture it. Quite fun, quite stinging also.
But hopefully it quickly recovers, if not i cannot practice.

I LOVE YOU 2E8

2008-10-23T21:15:00.003+08:00

Today's the last day of school, I suddenly remembered.
Everything just seemed to pass very quickly.
These two years have been a bomb.
It was as if i just got to know everyone from 2e8.
And now it's time for us to part.
But after all this, i'm really glad i met every single one soul from 2e8.
EVERY SINGLE ONE. *from index number one to thirty five* :D
Each one special in one way or another we stuck together and made great achievements.

Everyone was really upset today, but let's move on.
We won't forget our reunion! The one at the PALACE. :D
I'M SURE WE'RE THE MOST BONDED CLASS.

I'M SOOOOO PROUD TO BE PART OF TWOO EIIGHT OHH EIGHT!

I LOVE YOU GUYS!
*GROUP HUG!*

okay wait wait. must STRESS on something

TWO EIGHT I WON'T FORGET YOU EVEN THOUGH I HAVE SHORT TERM MEMORY. WE'LL STICK TOGETHERRRRR. I LOVVEE YOU!

mixed feelings ):

2008-10-20T22:08:00.003+08:00

I searched 'Mixed feelings' on deviant art, and this is what i got.
Hrm, funny.
Anyways, i'm seriously having mixed feelings.
Don't know to feel happy or sad.

Results came out today.
Mrs Lim gave a speech and there was soo much statistics.
Compared by year, cohort, class, student.
I kind of felt quite demoralized to some extent.
And also stressed out cause in our cohort there are A LOT of smart people, really.
I can't say my results are bad, cause they aren't very bad.
But it's not what i expect of myself i guess.

Happy?
1. I've got no Cs or fails for this year.
2. My chinese really really really improved A LOT. and i'm really proud of it (:

Unhappy?
1. Most of my As dropped to Bs, means i got A LOT of Bs.
2. It's really getting very competitive, and i'm scared i can't take it ):

On a whole, i feel SAD.
Sad cause i'm having mixed feelings :/

Time's passing real fast.
O levels has already started
This is already the last week of school
At least CCA still continues?

HEE!A2 FOR CHINESE!

2008-10-17T20:22:00.003+08:00

I'm really really happy today!
Reason 1: It's a few more days and my mum comes home from her business trip!
Reason 2: I did unexpectedly well for Chinese this term!
I miss my mum already. hee.
And i'm really really happy this time cause i just wanted a B4 for chinese,
but i managed to get better marks. hee.
I broke the curse of having at least one C each term!hee!
No Cs this term! yay! (:

I have to thank my sister... a BIT.
cause i took a lot of cheng yu from her, and i whacked some in my compo :D

FYE results.

2008-10-16T19:22:00.002+08:00

got back 7 papers already...
one more to go.
CHINESE.
*kwang.kwang.kwang*
i'm hoping i'll get B4 for chinese!!
hope.hope.hope.

heard that after checking of scripts
we'll be having normal lessons again.
i wonder what we're going to do...
don't intend to start studying anytime soon.
i don't mind having MEP the whole week! yay.

teevee my best friend

2008-10-14T10:08:00.002+08:00

It's been one week of break since the FYEs.
I think i'll only feel that the break is really fun if i really did study for the exam before.
I didn't feel happy after last year's FYEs.
Happier after this year's FYEs,
Hopefully this means that i'll get better results this time. (:

Addicted to the tv these few days.
Don't know why also. I think i watch alot of channels... (:
102,256,56,55,255,20,17,18,19,23,24,27,33,32,48.
hee. (:

Tag replies!

WEILING:
Yeah i'm super nice (:
Actually, i don't think anyone knows what we're playing for 55th.
We haven't practiced for ages, and we've been practicing a lot of different songs,
So i guess we'll just pick the better ones.
I'll post what songs when we're told yups.
eh S$100 to buy banmian?! woah sey. at least 50 bowls of banmian!

JAMIE:

How's everything in st.margs?
You all very happy playing netball uh. hee.

TO MY SENIORS.

2008-10-10T14:44:00.006+08:00

Everyone, meet weiling. (:

To weiling:
Yes this picture is VERY 'scary':D I'm really thankful that i got to know you last year. Thankful that we're in SE, thankful that you wrote me a letter last year, thankful for all the long hours online crapping. Honestly, sometimes when i'd have a bad day and when i'd go online to talk to you about the most random things, i'd really forget about all the sad things and would smile for the rest of that day. I don't know how you the violinist, and me the bassist got to be so close as senior and junior BUT i'm really happy something like this happened (: I know that we'd keep giving each other names and saying that we'd kick each other to mid-air or to MARS or PLUTO or to the sun, but we meant the best for each other in our lifes. I know that i'll definately miss the times when you'd pop in to string and times when we'd crap and laugh so much till nobody else would know what we were saying for example, WEILIANG and REGINA. :D I won't forget you my peng you that keeps getting an injured toe like me and the exchanges of posts in each other's blogs. (:

Everyone, meet persis. (:

To persis:
SENIOR! My mentor, senior and ex-SE chair AND bunny peng you :D You've been my guide ever since i was in sec 1. The you that i saw on the first day of school during orientation, running around and the you i talked to online, wacky. Other than seeing you in TKGS if you come back to visit, i'd still want to hear you over the PA system of an airline, maybe Singapore Airlines? And i'd be ever so happy and not embarrassed to go to the cockpit and look for you to say hi or like what we've said, for me to shout from where i was sitting! (: I'll miss the morning gate duty hello and the butt whacking game. Okay. not to say i like butt whacking, the you running around the school, always always always running around. :D and the things you'd get me to initiate or help out to get anything going or better, whether in string or pb. How to improve and lead when my batch's going to be the most senior. I really hope i won't dissapoint you and will do as well. (:

P.S. i think i'm going to laminate the dentention slip you gave me :D

Everyone, meet nurul. (:

To nurul:
Hey. I never really got the chance to tell you but i really am amazed by how you can be really jovial and cheerful at one moment and be strict [in a good way] when things needed to be carried out. Thanks for all the times when i was a POP and you'd tell me where i went wrong and helped me become a prefect. It was indeed one long process i felt, but i thought that somehow the process wasn't very bad as you'd help us, the POPs to grow into prefects. I'd always be intimidated by your really scary stares at me, but i knew that they weren't those really meany type ones. [okay you get what i mean]. I will seriously miss your scary stares, really. (:

Everyone, meet carol. (:

To carol:
Hey. I guess you'd be pretty shocked how i got this picture! *Whispers* it's weiling.shh.
Anyways, although i just got to know you for about a year plus plus, this whole time has been really great. I won't forget your super punctual and long letter replies. All the comforting words and phrases you'd use to encourage me when something went wrong, and at the same time, all the funny things you write AND DRAW and the funky name you gave me. I really like my funky name (: Oh yes, and i'll remember that you're one of the few people that'd bother to reply my lame and redundant smses. I hope that even as you leave TKGS you'll still remember all the good times you had with your buddies and the times when the two of us were talking crap most of the time. I'm glad that we had been to two major events in TKGS together that i won't forget. The conference and the investiture. Me going into the board as a newbie and you leaving as the graduating batch. (: I still cannot locate all the pictures that we took together using other people's cameras and somehow they went missing. hee.

I just felt like i really needed to post this.
I feel much better now (:

Fun day at school.

2008-10-09T20:24:00.003+08:00

Today was a really really nice day!

This morning was pretty scary though...
My dad was being very macho, protecting me from the beggar dude. hurr hurr :D

BD: one dollar? one dollar?
my dad: what one dollar?
*beggar dude points to the bus behind*
my dad: what?! you want to take a bus? why should i give you money?!
BD: one dollar. one dollar
*ratana thinks: daddy please don't whack this guy...*
my dad: what?! go get a job dude! why should i give you money! go back to your seat!
*BD walks back to his seat*
*BD stares at my direction, wants to ask me for dollar*
*ratana thinks: shit. don't come!don't come! shit. come already*
BD:girl girl. one dollar?
*i ignore*
my dad: OI! WHY YOU TOUCH MY DAUGHTER! get lost!
*ratana thinks: shoot. woah sey. macho daddy*

after that, my dad just kept staring at BD to make sure he didn't disturb anyone else (:
macho daddy! hurr hurr.
and the BD didn't touch me at all. hee. :D

Today after recess, we had a rock band concert in the hall. whooh.
Some of the sec 2s and 3s were going mad! Wooh.
Some of the sec 2s were : aqidah,faaiza,farahin,diyanah,rury,anisa,shabrina,ming min, nyx, me, melissa, faustina and some others (:
We should do it another time. hahahs. so fun.
But after that, we were really tired.
Fun to de-stress. hee. Now i feel sooo much better.
But i think i lost my voice. :D

We had the OBS talk today.
I still haven't decided if i want to go to OBS...
I mean.
IF i'm going to OBS or not :D
I have this strong magnetic force field thing to my house,
out of Singapore, it'll have it's side-effects, UNLESS. i'm going on a holiday. hee!

Hee.

2008-10-08T21:25:00.002+08:00

Bored today. hee.
But at least i'm happy that we don't have to study.
Yay.
Thanks to marissa for prefect's conference pictures!

Oh yes.

WORST OF THE TWO YEARS. gahh.

Name the ensemble : Gamelan [my answer] Chinese [correct answer]

angry luh! couldn't differenciate chinese from gamelan.
i swear i could hear:
1. the metallophones
2. the kwang kwang thing!
and it didn't sound like a sheng! :/
and for percussion instrument i really couldn't hear so i put Gong Ageng. boo.

and another section. i didn't know what to write...
Opera

Name a suitable composer: Mozart
Give a reason for your answer: Mozart is famous for nice opera.

seriously luh, this is the WORST paper.
unexpectedly bad.

science was pretty okay i guess.
some questions i really didn't know. but
overall manageable.

Haiyoooooss.
Today really really not my usual mep day. gahh.

F1 race!

2008-09-29T16:15:00.003+08:00

finally over with math and history!

i think i wrote out of point for history
then for math, it wasn't as tough as i expected.
but there were still a few challenging ones that i just crapped.
tomorrow's science and mep.
hurr hurr.
my two favourite subjects. but still don't know if can score not.
hope so.

going to blast classical music today.
blast.blast.blast.

maybe i really do?

i'm ready for chinese and geog.

WHY DO I ALWAYS STUDY THE LATER SUBJECTS!!
gahh.

fun times in smps and tkgs

2008-09-19T21:12:00.002+08:00

just woke up from my sleep. about 5 plus till now?
went back to smps today with rury and shabrina.
had alot of fun catching up with the teachers.
and had alot of fun being retarded with shabrina and rury.
took pictures, will upload them soon. or maybe after exams.
today was really really really fun.
and realised that ms goh has a hot red car. hee.

yesterday was at the sec 4 farewell.
it was pretty nice too.
took some pictures also. will upload after exams.
will miss the seniors.

still not ready for exams at all.
got to really work for math and history!!

no regrets?

2008-09-17T17:11:00.002+08:00

today was a pretty nice day i guess.
MEP was really fun. and it was the last lesson before our FYEs.
we watched the videos weiling recommended me to watch.
it was really funny. and everyone had fun
made 2e8 have a memoriable lesson with ms ng.
even ms ng was laughing when she watched it.

had chinese remedial just now.
was me, vanessa and ming min only.
was pretty short session. but i managed to learn a few words. kind of glad.

don't feel as tired today as compared to previous days.
maybe it's because i slept early last night.

Later on in the week...
pb sec 4 farewell tomorrow. will be staying back for it.
going back to SMPS on friday with shabrina. after school and maybe after history remedial.
see what ms su wants.
no snys yet. kind of already missing practices.
most probably will be staying home to study for exams over the weekends. nothing much.
english FYE on wednesday. and O level performing also on that day.
i'll be taking my english FYE paper 2 another time i think. going to my sister's school.
hope everything will go well that day.
still need some brushing up and more contrast in dynamics.
hope i won't screw this for my sister.

ms ng reminded us that we're supposed to be really focused now for FYEs.
don't want to end up regretting after the exams.
which is really true. so i'm going to refrain from using the computer. i'll try.
and not sleep soo much and waste time.

upset.

2008-09-16T21:45:00.001+08:00

keep getting mood swings!
and it has gotten me really upset.
about the most trivial matters.
i'm upset because exams are coming.
i'm upset because my sister still isn't studying hard enough
i'm upset because there's no one to talk to online now.
i'm upset because i have to do announcements tomorrow.
i'm upset because i think i have loads of things to do tomorrow.
i'm upset because i think i'm having a bad day. and i don't want to screw my announcements.
i'm upset because i want to stay up to study but i'm too tired.
i'm upset because everyone else is upset.
i'm upset because i know i won't get into triple science.
i'm upset because I JUST AM.
i'm upset because i most probably won't be able to attend my teacher's wedding. and i promised. i'm upset because i'll be going on a holiday at the end of the year.
i'm upset because i'll go into a different class with different people. and i don't want to.

i miss SNYS practices!

2008-09-16T21:36:00.002+08:00

I MISS MY PRIMARY SCHOOL
AND...
I MISS PRACTICES WITH MR. LEONARD TAN TOO!

piano grade 6 -distinction. 130

2008-09-15T22:08:00.004+08:00

i'm kind of in a happy mood today.
i think my mum's really noble. and she really knows how to be a great mum.
seeing _ _ _ _ _ being such an ASS.
my mum still doesn't show her expressions or whatever although i kind of know.
and i'm the total opposite cause i just keep ranting about how _ _ _ _ _ is such an ASS.
i love my mum (:

9 days till FYEs.
i'm still not feeling the tension and stress that i'm supposed to be feeling.
still in "Rest" mode.

i think classical music makes people feel happy.
wait. makes me feel happy. sort of. especially Dvorak's serenades. hee.

got back my piano grade 6 results.
i did expect myself to get that grade.
i'm GLAD but not overjoyed.

today is monday.
i'll continue posting and blogging and facebooking till wednesday.
and will resume my happy days on the computer on the 7th October.
oh wait. maybe i'll use during the weekends.
see how....

2008-09-12T14:35:00.004+08:00

talking to carmen now.
she says the standard of their orchestra is higher than YO.
so happy for her.
i'd love to hear them play.
CARMEN! don't worry too much about getting your buddies.
as time pass, i'm sure you'll find your buddies. so don't fret about that! (:
and yes. i'm jealous. very in fact. very.

today was pretty slacked i guess.
had science and lit for "Stressed" periods.
and art for "Slack" period.

didn't sleep at 2 last night as i expected. hee.
couldn't. cause don't usually sleep late.
still trying to rush my subject notes. haven't officially revised yet.
pretty scared. after seeing my terrible term 3 results. really upset.
don't know if i'm able to pull using FYE.
don't know if i can refrain from using the computer which is super addictive.

exam over. :/

2008-09-10T15:02:00.003+08:00

just came back from lunch after bass exam.
bass exam wasn't really good.
scales: intonation wasn't good at all.
songs: pretty good. better than expected.
sightreading: erm. better than my piano one?
aural: i didn't answer the question properly. could see it in michael jackson's face.

okay. the examiner's name is MICHAEL JOHNSON.
but i call him MICHAEL JACKSON. (:

i wasted alot of energy coz it didn't occur to me that i had to bring the accompanist's score.
so i didn't bring the score. and after 1/2hr waiting... i remembered.
so i had to rush home to get the score.
and i was almost late for the exam. rawr.

went to city hall to eat after that with my dad.
super nice lunch.
then went to suntec city to fix my sister's phone.
my dad ended up scolding the service guy.
i wasn't shocked at all. used to it. hee.
tired now. going to sleep later.

elephant!

2008-09-09T23:16:00.001+08:00

LOOOVE how this guy plays! (:
the piano part in the beginning might sound loud at the beginning
but don't turn down the volume coz the bass part is pretty soft towards the end (:

i'm hoping i can play like this tomorrow?
hahahas.

serenade by tchaikovsky, can we really do it?

2008-09-09T21:38:00.003+08:00

not feeling tired now. after a super long long sleep (:
time's passing really quickly and i haven't got time to do revision.
actually i may have some time but i keep bringing home the wrong books.
but luckily i've started on revision. wheepee~

not really in the mood to do anything.
keep thinking of exam tomorrow. i'm hoping...
my bass won't go out of tune!
my bass will sound nice tomorrow!
i won't be too nervous and forget scales or cannot sightread!
anyways, thanks to everyone that wished me good luck! (:
THANKYOU SOOOO MUCH! i really really appreciate it. AND i really need it!
hahas. (:

listening to serenade by tchaikovsky now. second movement. rocks.
i hope we can play this for SYF next year!!
but that's on one condition that everyone works their ASS off. and really.
WORK THEIR ASS OFF. inclusive of mine also luh. duh. (:

don't really know what to expect for FYE.
ms tang said that, there's really no time to think, even for a moment.
just have to whack what you've already studied. if not, sure cannot finish the paper.
hais. there's never a really "enough" of preparing is there?

what's happening to me?

2008-09-08T21:47:00.003+08:00

today just went by.

huazhen: i remember it's city hall! the other time i walked from city hall
sipei: yeah i remember from city hall also!
*everyone walks back up and beeps the ez link card again and goes out
me: but the passenger service say raffles nearer
*everyone walks to the map again
huazhen: isn't that the percussionist guy?
percussionist guy: i dropped at the wrong stop. it's at raffles place. nearer to go from there
me: huh?! woah. i just wasted money walking in and out!
*everyone laughs and chiongs to the beeping thing

and mr li wasn't there. pretty much wasn't intensive practice.
after that me and rachael went to eat our dinner at 430. (:
we had this really really weird encounter with this waiter in another shop.
[he just walked in and talked to us]
he just came to us and started a conversation which was really no point.
super awkward.
ask me and i'll tell you the details. (:

after that we took mrt to bugis and bus to SNYS.

carmen and jed, will miss you guys.

2008-08-29T23:05:00.003+08:00

this year, alot of things have been happening.
and it's really true when people say that
we always have to treasure all the moments.
only at a time when you lose something
you will feel uneasy. and you'll start to think back.

carmen,
going to miss you loads really.
thinking back of those times when we'd
skip a bit of string and always rush our dinner before ys practice.
always waiting at the bubble tea shop and talking about the weirdest stuffs
and always making eye contact
to see who was going to ask mr li if we could leave during string.
and most of the time i would do it. (:
and always making funny facial expressions when someone would play an out of tune A.
and of course all those trips together with rachael and suzanna to CCAB.
those times were really fun.
thanks. and i hope you'll do very well wherever you go.
keep in touch (:

jed,
already missing your super funky moments.
those times when we would talk crap and play with mentos and
were always lazy to take bass from the room.
of course the 6 of us had great fun together during YS camp.woots.
when we'd critisize the strategy drawings on the boards
and draw other funky stuff on it.
we'll always be the 6 double bassist in YS.
althought you aren't in YS no more. hopefully
the 6 of us will play again soon. (:

i really want to keep all my friends.
although this might seem really selfish.
i really want to.
my seniors, my juniors, my primary school friends, my friends from the same batch,everyone else. (:
call me a selfish pig. (:

(david cook-always be my baby) < that song makes me so emo.
boo.

DOCTOR CARLISLE

2008-08-26T22:15:00.003+08:00

with the full dress rehersal. and the MEP perf for my class.
and string practice.and my chinese laoshi chasing for my compo.
hurr. and i can't do all these stuff coz i have to go for a funky blood test.
let's hope no one sees me cry...
-.-
i hope the doctor isn't like dr. carlisle. ahahha.
or someone who will suck up all my blood. ew.

today i took a loop bus.
i guess my brain wasn't working and i didn't realise that 131 was the loop bus.
i saw this road.
it's CARLISLE road!
okay. only some people will understand when i put caps for CARLISLE. :D

so tired.
i shall stay up tonight.
don't know what i plan to do. but
stay up.

2008-08-26T12:49:00.003+08:00

didn't go to school today.
so sorry nina! couldn't pass you the score.
will help you photocopy luh.

just came back from the doctor.
he said i might have stomach flu or dengue.
ahahahah.

doctor: now got alot of dengue cases, i think you might have dengue
since you have the symptoms.
me: oh. okay. erm. can you give me an MC to cover for today?
doctor: yes i will. and will cover you for tomorrow also. if you have a fever
you need to come back tomorrow for blood test okay?
me: yeah sure.
*tries not to laugh. or at least try to keep my laughter soft enough*
doctor: don't worry too much. maybe you got stomach flu also.
me: oh so it's dengue AND stomach flu?
doctor: no no. either one.
me: oh okay. *smiles*

seriously i thought it was SOOO FUNNY.

bobo my new bow (:

2008-08-25T21:40:00.005+08:00

i've got a new bow! :D
i love it loads. the quality of the bow is super good.
i just hope the rosin won't destroy my bow!
i should give my bow a name.
it shall be called, BOBO! :D

had my MEP performing exam just now.
was really bad.
my octobre was an octave higher [somehow], and the chords were mixed up.
melody wasn't prominent enough.
no need ms ng tell me i also know luh.
the duet was better.
but no contrast in dynamics & i made ALOT of errors.
need to practice flipping pages too.
general impression...
worst performing exam in my 2 years. ):
i'll just have to study really hard for the theory paper
and hope that the perf. wouldn't pull down my marks.
bang.

had alot of free periods today.
english.legacy.history.drama.
i was supposed to make FULL use of time.
but i used it to plan my holiday timetable.
a total of 17 hours of practice on the double bass.
&
20 hours of music.
22 hours of revision + tuition.
oh yes. i like the last part....
58 hours of sleep! whoohoooo :D :D :D :D

*YES I KNOW YOU THINK I'M A PIG. rawrrrr.*

the fun times.

2008-08-23T16:28:00.005+08:00

:(
:)

i'm sad coz i thought i didn't do very well for the auditions.
possible reasons...
1. i didn't have enough sleep. [the auditions were at 8]
2. i didn't practice enough. [what IS enough?]
3. i'm super hopeless in it. [really?]
but i guess it's over.
so now just have to concentrate on ABRSM grade 5.

the conductor mr lim, didn't ask the bassists to play much.
there are about 5-6 pages
and i only played the first half page.
same for the others i think.
he was a pretty nice dude. but intimidating.
somehow, he knows i'm taking grade 5 soon... (hrmm...)

i'm happy coz after the auditions
all the bassists went to plaza singapura tgt at 9? [the shops weren't open yet]
went to macdonalds to eat breakfast.
we thought the coffee sucked.
then went to carrefour to walk.
si pei ran up the travellator. ( the one heading downwards )
deprived childhood luh.
bought an alcoholic drink to share.
after that. i went mad. actually.
i didn't really really go mad. (:
just laughed a bit more than usual.
after that headed back for combined practice.
the guest conductor was pretty cool.
but the practice was super serious.
but to some extent. it's something good.

loads of studying to do. ):

my heart wrenched out

2008-08-22T19:47:00.002+08:00

the winning basket.

string quartet.

i'm sure no one knows how or why these two pictures are related.

do you know the feeling

when you're team is in the championships and it's the last few seconds and you are 3 points back.
you really want to help?

but you are the reserved player and your coach has no reason to put you up?
(trust me. it's a terrible feeling.)

well. today this dude came into string and said there was going to be

performance by string quartet from string ensemble.

my heart was like wrenched out and stomped on.

know why?
because the double bass section is the only one LEFT OUT.

that feeling sucks even more than in a championship game.
and that dude didn't look like he needed a bass section.

i felt really really depressed.
yes i mean it when i say DEPRESSED.

rachael said i was just having mood swing that's why i'm so affected.

oh wells.

even the encore song and the cuckoo song couldn't cheer me up.
boing.

and there was even a worse part....
hais.

the sky and it's wonders.

2008-08-22T10:10:00.004+08:00

this morning i looked up into the sky.
the clouds were moving at super speed.
and during assembly,
i could still see the moon.
it was faded. but still noticeable.
the sky and it's wonders.

you should look up to the sky.
it makes you feel happier (:

in the computer lab now have free period.
everyone's all online and blogging. :D

pretty sleepy now
coz i was reading twilight from 10 plus. (:

nothing much to do.
i'll have to scrutinize my snys score tonight.
bang.
i just hope i won't crash my bass into anything.
ahahah.
will post more about my "experience" when it's over. :D

i'm feeling SUPER hungry.
but i'm going for lunch later
and going to parkway for coffee later with vanessa
VANILLA MOCHA.
myahaha.
so i shall restrain from eating :D

2008-08-21T15:46:00.003+08:00

today was pretty okay.
nothing much really happened.
filzah didn't come to school
so she couldn't see what happened in the morning.
aww :D

apparently. "someone" left a puddle of water on my chair.
and stupid me didn't spot check.
so...
i SAT on it. ahahah.
i managed to dry my skirt before 7.25 :D
with the help of many people and natalie's file.
it really really made my butt feel cold early in the morning.
those people who kena-ed also.
don't feel bad already coz that person already got scolded by DM.
so. forget about it already (:
