So my voice is gone and I'm suffering from sorethroat. Yet I'm still sneaking pineapple tarts. Good job (:

Orientation really reminded me of last year. How true, when people say, "enjoy your orientation cause that's the only time you get to really play in hc"

Been freaking busy this week, reaching home at no earlier than 10.30 everyday. But it was good fun, really enjoyed all that saikang with fc (:

Cny's coming soon, like really soon. But somehow I'm not all that looking forward to it this year. Influence? Probably just too busy. Managed to look at that pile of work today and I felt like just daoing everything. Never knew 3 days of lesson could be worth this much. Damn.

My toe has this...swollen patch. From dancing I guess. Excited about fusion choreo, but I need to find time to start.

Econs timed trial tmr. Great ):

Durian went NS on friday. Couldn't really find time to talk before that. When you see this a week later, welcome back to normal civilisation, fellow fruit :D

It's a crazy week ahead. Reached home only about an hour ago. Fun nonetheless (: And today, something hit me. The realization that I will really miss MAD and FC loads once all these crazy frenzies stop.

And for now, jiayou for this mad week ahead. For orientation, for fac intro, for war games, for fac dance and fac everything. Jiayou fusion 1, jiayou dancenight, I want to end our MAD life with a bang (:

I'm tiredd. Should I go read h3 econs notes? Yes, no? Yes, no? Dang, see first.

And I'm too lazy to upload anymore. Um, another time (: Planned on skipping only PE today because dinner ended rather late ytd night. Ended up missing the whole day cause damn headache came back again.

I'm real excited for year end :D

 
Haha just felt like posting this up. Sometimes I feel that it's so qian bian :D

May be a tad late for this but TGIF. Or rather TGIS, whichever. First week was this close to wearing. Partly due to open house, partly due to the many other things that seem to pop up endlessly. I just failed my first and second tests in J2 consecutively yesterday. Yeah, chem was right after bio. Sucks. Nvm, I will make sure that studying sticks the next time I have a test. 

Been a week of fun at dance as well. Last time we performed together was like what...tapestry?! Teachers' Day excluded as it was a miserly group of about half our division thanks to all the suspensions. 

Yes, before I forget. I had the first enriching GP lesson yesterday in my grand total of 1 year at HC. Wow. Honestly, the stuff that I learnt ytd was so much more than whatever I learnt in J1. (If I even did learn any at all). I'm so so so so grateful for mscheong, really. 

Supposed to start on that mountain-tall stack ytd, but ended up going shopping for jiahan's wedding. We finally found at Daniel Yam. Bought a real simple knee-length one, simply because I do not want to go to prom at the end of the year wearing a floor-dragging gown (sis bought one) that looks out of place. (Yes, this goes to prom too) And reason why this gown is being recycled from prom is...there's the biggest event at the end of the year that deserves the best. Which kinda means nice new gowns :D So yes, save on others, spend on your own brother's wedding. Yay (; 

Alright, time to start work. Work includes

• omg I&I
• SAT SAT SAT SAT SAT
• find the wedding pieces
• math hol hw 
• revision? right

Okay hello work ):
 

 Feel slightly recharged all of a sudden, though I felt really tired after fac dance, don't know why. 

Had fun at prac today, trying out the formation changes for bizzy. haha, been some time since I felt like that. Feels good (: I'm so glad I have dance (: Cannot imagine school without dance/cca. I may just quit out of boredom. Hahah. And I feel sorry about blackbox floor. Really.

Saw the high school sec1s exhibiting themselves at the field during flag raising. HAHA sooo funny/cute. Why does hc do such weird things. Poor sec1s, they were probably intimidated beyond intimidated. School has been nicely peaceful with only our batch. Whole class bench to ourselves!! :D Ahh, one week to enjoy before J1s start coming in. 

And yes, so many more brown patches of hair today!!!! I shouldn't have wasted money and sacrificed my hair quality even further darn ))):

Math test today was not thaaaat bad. Mugging for promos really helps because you can remember some minute things even when you didn't study :D Left out the entire qn 2 though. Hate S&S to the core, regardless of how easy it can be. 

It was byebye for Mr Ang today. Though I don't know him personally, but him leaving HC seems....It used to be like, HC-awh. No more farmily ): (holy's speech omg -.- ) well, it's a milestone for one. Hope HC won't slide down cause of this. 

Appeal for h3 econs got through. Only thing left to do is to apply. Not 100% sure...but it's 90% there. Fact that it's not an easy subject to take in the first place plays a part...Coupled with clashing with self pracs on Friday, and what with dancenight coming up...Random thought, think my parents will probably slaughter me if they know I'm hesitating because of dance. 

Okay yes, time to work hard. Go go go. Studies, dance, fac comm, music, OMM...I shall just keep telling myself I can do it :D

Okay so now, time to study for SAT. 

(DON'T NEED TO DO CHEM!!!! :D:D:D:D but it's still h_ly )): ) 

I'm praying that we don't need to do I&I :D

 Just had this longgggggggggg locked post. Clearer mind now, perhaps (:

AHHH I'm still in denial. School IS starting and there really IS a math test tmr. Poot. 

Spent the whole day ytd settling my stuff, ugh. Couldn't believe the Singtel queue. Saw a burnt durian there who conveniently didn't tell me he was there. Mum: " ta shi hei ren ah?!" HAHAHA.

Went back to get documents and headed back to amk again. Sigh, waste of time. At least there will be no more booming of phone bills. I hope, heh. :D 

Mum actually said if I study in Sg for uni, she will buy me a car in 2011, together with my sis getting one after she graduates. Ah ha, but no that's not gna be one of the factors I'm considering. I don't need a car, I just wna learn how to drive. Theory test!!

Speaking of cars, I miss Sportage. Don't know which Kia mum's changing to. But somehow, Sportage reminds me of our Jln Kemuning house and I really miss it ): Oh well, 7-seater's good. Making space for our 6-member strong family. [Hopefully 7-member-going-to-be after Dec this year] 

Was eating prata in the morning and saw really cute toddlers/babies. Omg. I want my brother to have kids really soon. Have a pact with my sister, I take the girl she takes the boy. I will doteeee on them so much. Can't wait. Nieces and nephews soon pleasee.

Time really does fly. From nerdy teenagers to married adults. Jiahan's getting married in 2 weeks' time and my brother at the end of the year. The extended family just got even bigger. 

Yes, time to dye my hair back later on. Oh, there's a wedding dinner tonight )):

Back from 76 chalet (: Our night cycling turned out to be a little too time-consuming, with its time amounting to a grand total of 9 hours :D Think it was about 40+km. Started out at around 4am in hope of catching the sunrise at Changi. Turned out that those white fluffly things in the sky decided to try for a shot of fame and present themselevs to us, with no regards for the sun ): So we pretty much sat there and saw the sky lighting up as if faint paint was dabbed across...No horizon, no orange sun ): But it was still beautiful all the same (: 

Guess we were all dead by the time we reached Changi. Just when we were thinking, "damn the journey back", lp's bike broke down and it started to pour. Thought the rain would let up so we (group at the back) decided to give it a go and started to push our bikes in the rain.Hahaha hola, pitter patter pitter patter metamorphosed into SPLASH SPLASH. Tadahhh. Wet. So we were stuck beside Changi airport runway, watching planes take off and land. How I wish at that moment that I was on the plane, on my way to the time I was immersed in that few weeks ago. Started to miss my trip alottt. The wind got really biting and needless to say it was freezing, Had entertainment from the guys though hahaha. It was still fun (: Finally reached chalet at about..1? yes that's the highlight of chalet :D

Wanted to watch ALVINNNNNNN but ended up watching The Fourth Kind...Bad movie, waste of money );

Went back for open house prac after that. Got...yes, tired.

Shall finally post some photos, my livejournal's getting plain (:

( Everywhere, Everything (: )
( Read more... )( Read more... )
( Read more... )

I need to start on my hw. Blah.

I have no idea why am I so tired and sleepy. It's to the extent that tears are oozing out. K. Getting up early tmr to get started on everything else. High time that's needed.

And shit. My hair is still so brown even after dying it back. I need it blackkkk. It's either another round of killing my hair or it's hairspray galore. Ah ha.

I'm so sleepy omg.

What's with livejournal. My usual blogging toolbar (points up) has been gone for at least 2 weeks. I can't cut stuff rah ):

-------

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG. GIL SHAHAM GIL SHAHAM IN SINGAPORE. AND I'M GOING TO MISS HIM. WHAT IN THE WORLD. AHHHH!! *!!!!!!!! &*(&£$@*(&%@£*$()@%&@ JIALE GO DIE.

Just back from OMM concert. Really enjoyed Mahler (: Someone should tell me what I can do, not what I should do, cause if it's the "should" I know I shouldn't play for march concert. Let's see...blocks are the next day, there's dancenight prep, lots of fac comm stuff...Okay it will just be late nights all over again right, nothing else (: I will make sure I study hard for blocks. It will be the last concert before A's.

Okay, so that gave me the green light to go :D I'm killing myself, but I think my parents might kill me first.

And yes, if anyone reading this happens to be the lucky soul who borrowed my YO skirt, please tell me! I miss and want my YO skirt back but it seems to have disappeared ): And speaking of which, my NYSE gown is still with NYSE after a year. Gosh.

School is starting to depress me already. I don't want J2. I don't want school.

Random note. Sometimes it gets REALLY conflicting when you listen to hiphop and classical music (:

BOOM. 2009 didn't really end on such a nice note, what with the food poisoning. Throwing up 8 times in a day isn't really all that enjoyable. Yucks. And even not so when it starts at an ungodly hour of 4am -.- I was literally throwing up acid. Horrid day yesterday, hated it. Missed dance camp too. Thank god it ended today. Didn't eat anything ytd essentially cause I threw up my half-filled bowl of plain porridge. Efficient way of dieting but no I rather die than go by this way.

Really feel like going for the graduation ceremony for ABdip ): But it's not really worth $300. Shall consider it when I get my LR/FR. Yeah if there ever is a day. OMM concert in March is one day before blocks. Yucks. I will probably die during that time, not forgetting there's dancenight prep too. What's more, I haven't exactly told my parents about it...But we are playing Romeo&Juliet! Can't give up so easily (:

Supposed to give this longg post on my 2010 resolution. But am feeling kinda lazy now, not really in the mood of staying up till 12 to welcome the first minute of 2010. Mmm shall see.

09 has been a year of "new". New school, new cca, new people, new friends, new surroundings. Learned quite some stuff too. Learned how to take the backseat, learned how to adapt, learned how to let go, most importantly learned how to change. Exactly how much I have learned, tbh, I don't really know. But well, it's the year that ends, not the learning.

10 is arriving soon within 45 minutes. Big year coming up, A's just on the doorstep. Sometimes I can't believe how time flies. Top on the list, do well for A's. of course, that means more determination. And well, get to enjoy dance and music at the same time (: Of course, major wedding at the end of the year! (: No distractions please, stay firm. Be good and find the direction. Oh yes, please stop all those darn illnesses. Headaches, stomaches, giddiness, food poisoning, fever, virus infection, whatnot. (I seem plagued)

Okay so yes, please let 2010 be a good year!

I'm really hungry now but I can't eat much. Yucks ):

Goodnight!

Around 7 am here in San Diego and I'm typing in darkness because the stupid table lamp doesn't work.

Didn't go to Balboa Park yesterday, but had a load of fun at Seaworld. Felt like I was thrown all the way back to 13 years ago and enjoying my first take-in of this amusement park. Went at 10am when it just opened and stayed all the way till 6 plus when it closed. Went crazy towards the end and we spent $30 playing in the arcade, winning softtoys. Winning wouldn't really be an accurate term because there was practically no one there and we were playing against ourselves so there was kinda no way for us not to win. Can't remember the last time we played in an arcade, it was ancient perhaps. So now I have an additional 6 softtoys on my bed. At least we refrained from getting the one that was bigger than the big bear on my bed. Else we would have to get an air ticker for him/her/it.

Over 700 photos in our cam already. Oh yes, the food. I have been eating so much that I got really sick of it and was queasy. Of food. What with Wynn and Bellagio buffets and 3 meals within 7 hours. Kinda sick of bread. Don't remember eating THAT much during our last trip here. I really am feeling so so fat. Really.

Since I'm kinda bored now...trace all the way back to the start :D San fran was like a rest stop, for us to recharge before starting on our trip. Most memorable thing...food. AH HA. What did I tell you. Lotsa clam chowder, lobster bisque, and yes, crabs. Basically seafood. Took a city tour in which all of us fell asleep. Whoops. The last night was nice cause four of us went to the city centre and had cheesecake (see, what did I tell you) from The Cheesecake Factory under the stars. Loved the setting around there.

Ride to Yosemite was bad in the sense that I was feeling queasy 3/4 the time ): But it really was worth it. What you see on the roads are amazing. Picturesque views, breathtaking, all of that. Had a snow field right behind our lodge and we were having a mini-snowfight there. Kinda like Salzburg all over again. Oh and then we were making lotsa bigfoot footprints (: Was freezing cold too. 4 of us ran thru the cold to make it to the restaurant. Oh but, the beef was really good. (Food, again). Couldn't bear to leave it in some ways, but oh well set off in the morning for Vegas. Enjoyed the car ride that was filled with laughter and ridiculous IQ questions.

VEGAS. Extravagant. I couldn't believe the size of Casesar's Palace. Though Trump wasn't on the strip, it worked fine for us since we didn't gamble. Loveddd the hotel rooms. Walked around and took in some of the extravagance of Vegas. Had fine dining in our hotel which was something different and refreshing (FOOD, again). Next day, buffet at Wynn was great/best(food...)..shopping at factory outlet. Wow. I was..shocked at the amount of things my family can buy in a day. On mine, there's 1 Coach bag and wristlet, a Guess wallet, Tommy shirts and hoodie, tops from some random names I haven't heard of...multiply that by about 8 and that's how much my family shopped. But the prices are way below their normal ones, so I guessed it's worth it (: Shopping sapped the energy out of us so we collapsed when we went back. Last day in Vegas, walked around in the morning. Didn't manage to catch any shows there cause they were all sold out sigh. So yes, next on the list, food again and we went to have the Bellagio buffet, which I thought was kinda overated. Wynn was better (: But yes the buffets were great and so worthwhile. 30US per pax for buffets that you can only get for about 80+ per pax in Sg. Met up with Remus at Bellagio! It was cool meeting up with friends overseas (: Bellagio fountains were wow. Loved the fountains.

And then yes it was time to leave and I really didn't wna leave Trump. So many other places in Vegas that we haven't exlored. Oh well. Wind during the ride was atrocious. Dad almost lost control of the car. And because Nevada is a desert, there wasn't really any green along the way. But the mountains were beautiful. Finally reached San Diego, which was actually ytd. And it was also when we really missed Trump. HAHA. We had to take in the city in the dark because it turns dark at about 5 plus. Couldn't really get to see the city. Then it was Seaworld ytd. That was also where our 3 meals in 7 hours took place. and Tadah, off to LA later. AND not to forget, stopping at another factory outlet on the way :D

Alright, time to wake people up. It's XMAS EVE here! If I'm not wrong, it should be near to XMAS in Singapore now (: And I kinda miss the sleepover that we have. (huiying dnt feel lonely!)

MERRY XMAS PEOPLE! (:

YOOHOO greetings from san diego! been to san fran, yosemite and vegas already. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Miss Trumpppp, I miss Vegas and Yosemite! Rah, didn't get to watch any shows in vegas, so wasted ): THE STARS AT YOSEMITE. AHHHH. The snow, the mountains, the sky, the roads, the WIND. I'm gna have this unbearably long post when I get back. I need to pen all these down before they escape my memory :D and yes, ultra camwhore in process.

Staying here till tmr, then continuing to our last stop, LA! XMAS! To be honest, even though I miss things in SG, i don't wna go home ): I love love time with my family <33

Okay its 9 am here. Off to Balboa Park :D:D

Yes, you two, managed to squeeze some time after my email. SEE desktop! :D <3 miss you two!!

MAMBO. Across the Stars. Jupiter. <3

Pretty fast post-concert blues. Realised how much I miss playing after stopping for about a year. Would have loved to play for Mahler...R&J MARCH!!

Love Esplanade even though it makes you feel essentially exposed.

I miss the concert (:

Really tired. Lost my rehearsal stamina already. Took 2 freakin hours to get home. -.- JAM JAM JAM. Enjoyed the rehearsal though. Feels better with WAYO (:

Across the Stars is so painfully beautiful.

Eyes are tired.

Would have flown off in a week's time (: Can't wait can't wait! Though I really wish Ah Yi could have gone with us. Really ):

It's time to settle all the things I need to before flying off.

Concert on Monday! Yay, haven't played in Esplanade for a lonngggggg time. Love the holding rooms.

But it sucks that today is actually the last prac I'm having until I'm back. I bet I will forget my choreo when I come back.

Oh yes, OMM's playing R&J during March!! ONE day before blocks. Darn it, why do they all clash so so badly ): R&J )):

I have no idea how I can actually get a mosquito bite at the place where my violin comes in contact with my neck. So now it's pretty gross, there are like 3 red marks lining up. Practice mark, mosquito bite and the weird mark I always get at my collar bone. Mosquitoes are stupid.

Started rehearsal today. Am really happy to start playing! Had almost forgotten how it was like to play in an orch. Beginning to like Jupiter more and more.




3:04 <3 favourite.

Chanced upon this randomly



Nicee (:

Browsing through youtube ytd and saw this:



Reallyyy like this!

Jun An tells Jia Le: you so cute how to be angry at you!

100% true. Saved the chatlog. Omg :D

Didn't expect to stay for the whole day initially, but I ended up reaching home at 7 plus, with mr z sending all of us back home. Went back ny with audrey mars and kristie. Had this carbo-overloaded lunch with mr z. Currypuff, prata, sushi, chicken pie, bubble tea...Caught up with Mrs Ho for about an hour (: Really miss her!

And once again, I find NY so much friendlier than HC. So cheerful and bright. Missed the compounds especially. MISS THE COMP LABS. And ahh, we never got a chance to use the recording studio, damn. And most importantly, the quadrangle omg ): I really really wna sleep there. Been some time since I stepped into M404. We were all secretly laughing to ourselves when we saw the little TE guys. Got put in front during their first try in ME. All these seem so familiar. Won't ever forget the feeling of getting dumped on the cm seat in sec one.

Impressed by some of the juniors' improvements. Doubly impressed by TE's standards through their auditions. Shocked to some extent. Really glad that this such a bumper crop. I have never ever seen anyone who can pick up the cello and reach grade 5 within a year. With such ease and comfort with the instrument. Really amazed, we couldn't believe she was actually a total beginner.

Seeing the little sec ones go up one by one, performing in front of a large group for the first time...It kinda makes you feel like an old bird. Ah ha, memories. Still can't believe I only had one assessment in my 4 years. Was lucky enough xD Sitting through their rehearsals, watching and hearing them harmonizing...Laughing silently at the corner when Mr z repeats his stories which we have heard at least twice in our 4 years...They just bring back memories of the ol times. Not that old, actually..Seemingly old. Feels good to be remembered still. And I really wna play on an electric violin!!

Doesn't really feel the same as our last visit. Pretty much unfamiliar faces. Kinda forgot the s2s' names as well =\ Thats why yeah, feel like old birds. Haha. Really nice to visit once in a while (:

Open class tmr! :D Looking forward to it. Time reallllyyyyy flies (:

Okay time to practice star wars. Received the scores ytd and yucks, it really looks scary.
