Masterclass today! (:

We changed masterclass teacher from David Wong to Keith Koe!
Awesome!
Still remember David Wong saying, "Playing the B-flat scale is the most brainless thing!"
LOL
Then today the first thing Keith asked us to do was, "Play your B-flat scale!"

hahahahaha

Indoor songs rock to the maximum! (:

Had Geography make-up lesson with Ms Tay, Daryl and Zul today,
was supposed to start at 10.45 and end at 11.30 but it ended at 12.45 instead,
but nvm nvm,
we had fun (:

Had tuition after masterclass and was 75% half-asleep,
too tired.

Yesterday after band wanted to run 2 rounds with Xiang Min,
then she sprained her ankle i think,
see ah, dance too much already-.-
Then went home with her and Novita

went to HCI today with zul and daryl for their council investiture.

tiring sia,
left the school at around 1pm,
waited for cab until 1.15pm,
actually there were many cabs, but zul didnt want to take the blue comfort taxi.
hahahaha

in the end,
we managed to get a nice cab with a nice cabby (:

reached there then realised we were in Hwa Chong Junior College instead of Hwa Chong Institution.... -.-
then god sent a kind soul to come and help us,
there was this woman (later we found out that she's one of the GOH) who drove us from HCJC to HCI in her car.
so nice of her(:

registered and sat in the auditorium,
which was surprisingly quite small,
tk's audi is bigger than their's, but their's is much grander (:

after the investiture we got new ideas for tk's investiture this year (:

walked around for awhile,
then finally found the bus stop,
after daryl supposedly asked directions from the grass..... -.-

then took 67 and bus-ed home with zul,
we both fell asleep on the bus so many times,
hahahah,
too tired(:
alighted at eunos mrt and took mrt to tanah merah(:
bus-ed and walked home,
and i was in court shoes the whole time...
so pain -.-

hopefully ms tay can do a make-up geog remedial for us on friday! (:






to ____ : I took the initiative to come and talk to you, and what did you do? Walk away. You don't even have the basic courtesy to say 'hi'. What kind of attitude is this? Even if you don't want to talk about it, you could just face me and say it. Who do you think you are? Are you too ashamed? Wanna know something? I honestly can't be bothered with you anymore, thanks.

after the test,
zul accompanied me to the council room to get the council white skirt for tmr!
then we stripped in the room (:

hahahaha, jkjk.
he stripped into his pe uniform,
while i tried on the skirt (:

then sec3s didn't do outdoor for band today,
so brought gloves and memorised the songs for nothing-.-
but...
i'm starting to like the indoor pieces alot!
:D

going to Hwa Chong with Zul and Daryl tmr!
gonna be missing geog elect lecture and ss-.-

Urgh!

My ribcage and leg hurts like ****!


English lesson today was fun!
Had to fill in some blanks of a passage with adverbs and nouns,
my group - Vanessa, Novita, Me, Amanda and Mian Yu screwed it up!
lol, turned out like rubbish,
then changed it last minute,
in the end,
amanda had to present (:

After school stayed back and did homework with Amanda and Mian Yu,
i thought there was remedial!
Bodoh-.-

Met Xiang Min at around 4 and did abit of work,
then somehow ended up talking to the female cleaner,
then she started talking bout earpieces and going deaf,
not so sure,
my chinese isn't that good (:

Wanted to send XM to dance at the CC then in the end,
venue changed to the hall-.-
waited with sara until 4.40 when Weiling and Joycelyn were done then we went home (:


How to survive PE tomorrow?!
How, how, how?
I wanna run!





What to do?
Everytime i try to act normal,
I end up being someone i'm not,
I can't think properly,
I think I'm going crazy,
Will things turn out the way I hope it does?
This feels so wrong yet so right,
What to do, what to do?
God, i need help.

today was tiringgggggg !!!

didn't go to church in the morning,
spent a bit of the morning doing homework,
but kept side-tracking to do random stuff,
like standing at the balcony,
watching tv,
looking at handphone photos...
you get the point.

now my whole body is aching,
arm muscle cramp,
stomach muscle cramp,
leg cramp,
everything also cramp-.-

maybe wasn't so used to suddenly doing drills yesterday,
hahahaha (:

after forever i managed to finally complete my a-maths homework!
just like kenneth said, a-maths suck!
who needs it anyway-.-
you don't use it in your daily life.

its not like you're gonna use polynomials to buy chicken rice right?
find the remainder of the chicken rice when it is divided by the number of rice
let f(x) = chicken rice
f(number of rice) = chicken rice
NO RIGHT?!

wtf man-.-

but nvm nvm, must forgive and forget!
i'll forgive you, a-maths!

haizzz,
good thing there's school tomorrow! (:
can't wait! can't wait!
heh heh heh,
but there's a-maths too...
what a killer.

just remembered!
there's biology remedial on thursday...
which means....
PRACTICAL!
yay! :D




living in hope for a better tomorrow! (:

kay, so if you were wondering what my sister got for her birthday...
she got a White Nintendo DS which came along with 1000 free games...
like, wtf?
i don't think she should be getting it at such a young age,
all the distractions-.-
but currently she's hooked on to club penguin...
LOL

anyway, today we did drills! and formation(s)!
did outdoor for 90% of the time,
and got sunburnt... again...

during lunch....
we went to kallang mac donalds....
and i got spat in the face by yong xin-.-

his excuse?
"i didn't know that using 4 straws to drink would increase the drinking speed by so much!"
and so he had an over-flow of ice lemon tea in his mouth and had to conveniently spit it at my face... yay...
what a goat.

anyway, somehow i got really really tired and sleepy after lunch,
weird.
now i'm tired and drained but must still do homework!
urgh!

can't wait for school on monday,
i don't know why either.




count my blessings?
sorry, i can't,
i've got too many to count! (:

Today was awesomezxzxz! (:

had chinese for 2 periods and unsucessfully tried to write my zuo wen!
after that had Character Education! the best subject EVER! besides PE! :D

hahahahah

went to the computer lab to find out more about the cultures of other countries.. and did a super lame quiz.
after that had to write 5 questions on either Singapore culture or TK culture.
Novita and Hui Xian were in my group!
and... we chose Singapore culture!
cos it was easier!

hahahahah, then Novita told sonia yeo that i was the group leader-.-
lol

while getting the super easy questions, Hui Xian was side-tracking...
... into Happy Tree Friends Videos... -.-

hahahahha, then she showed a few of us one video
bout this moose who got his right leg stuck under a tree,
then he tried to cut of his right leg with a spoon,
and after forever,
he managed to cut of his flesh and finally his bone...
when...
Horrors of horrors!
he realised he was cutting his left leg the whole time!

-this was the part where Hui Xian was laughing non-stop-

then in the end,
the poor moose had to use a paper clip to saw off his right leg
lol
Hui Xian is such a sadist!
hahahahahhahaha

Then while finding the cultures of Singapore, i saw this Singapore dating ad with some pictures on it...

me: eh... what the...
novita: what's that?
me: some Singapore dating site...
me: -stares at the pictures-
me: they're... quite ugly...
novita: haha, they look like they zi lian
me: really meh?
novita: eh, you finding parter ah?
me: LOL!

after that had PE!
finally no more running!
played some game that had to pass the ball around without it touching the ground.

Physics was a killer,
so tiring and we used up 2 periods just to do a graph!
english was fine after that.

so... went for tuition which was at 2.30
tuition teacher started talking bout nicknames
imagine the conversation in chinese

cher: you know i had this student once, her chinese name was called "shu ting".
me: ya...
cher: after her first day of school she came and complained to me.
me: why?
cher: she said her friends give her nickname, they call her "shooting"

LOL, wtf.
tonight going out to swensens to celebrate sis's soon-to-be birthday
wait till she finds out what her present is... i'm so jealous-.-

school was okay today, haha
could've been better... but i'm not complaining
ran 4 rounds around technical block for pe..
and ran another 4 rounds after band

hahahah

can train air support! :D

today during band i somehow started thinking bout the times i spent with the band in 2008.

-CCA recuitment day
>We had to ask the sec1s to fill in some kind of information paper(:

-Band camps, dirty but fun :D
>Always the same old breakfast, and the rushing to use the toilets to bathe.. guys would be super fast... girls.. no comments..

-Sec2s skipped cohort camp
>Some of the band members protested like no mother, but in the end, mdm nora still made us stay in school while the rest of the cohort went to kota tinggi for camp...
>Stay in school do what? Study-.- and play rubik's cube when no one was watching.
>After recess we would go to the music room for Sec2 combine with Mr Sumitra... and people would still play rubik's cube during combine...

-Syf Outdoor
>After training so hard, we still lost in the end, but it somehow bonded the whole school and the band together, which was great (:
>Cried alot... all the waterworks...

-KLWMBC
>Most of the sec4s didn't participate
>Firza and Faizah still went! (:
>The first night we only got a bronze... barely...
>But second night we managed to clinch the silver award! (:
>Still remember the speech yug han gave to the band before we performed.
>So many people cried.

etc, etc.

Up till now, i'm still with the band! (:
and i'm glad! :D
2 more years to go!
when we went through all those events last year.. all the practices and training
it was so tiring eh?
but now that we've come this far, it's definately worth it! :D
Once in a lifetime memories! :D

On the brighter note, i'm going to Hwa Chong Institution for their investiture with Zul and Nicholas on the 21st of Jan!
Can leave class early! (:
But how are we getting there.... -.-
