Sigh..

As u can see, I've not been blogging for quite a long while. The no. of posts per week is inversely proportional to the amount of free time I have.

Week 7: SYF Week- Practice almost everyday
Week 8: Strings Concert - Practice everyday
Week 9: Band Concert - Practice everday

As u can see, as a result I never touch academics AT ALL for 3-4 weeks...
Lectures for math are completely waste of time becuz I dunno the foundation so I've been skipping all... Tutorials for chem, bio , math are completely waste of time and I read the notes during tutorials. The past 3 weeks have been just purely music. Strings and band.

Strings was fun! Playing in an orchestra is like sooo fun... Even though I only went for like 4-5 practices and put up a performance, I think it was great! Met some nice ppl there too.

Band once again was fun too. But somehow after yesterday's concert, the mood was quite emo/sad/happy? Like just kinda weird. Like our expiry date is up...

Then went Daniel's house for sleepover, OMG his house is soooo big! But my dream house is still a condo. I shall get one next time haha! And we watched White Chicks and Bride Wars and then sleep and bitch and bitch haha... Yay so fun...

But lately so many things have been happening la... Like totally no time to do any work at all. Now Econs is like my most up to date subject... How sick is that?!?

And SAT's are out. 2000. Haiz... Nothing much to say since I didn't prepare for it at all. I took it in week 7 and as you can see that's in the midst of SYF madness! So yup.

Hoping for 2150+ this time round...

So things to chiong like really chiong...

1) H3 Chem
2) SAT
3) NEFMQ
4) NAPFA

Haha how sick is that.. Chiong NAPFA... But all I need is 2 more pull-ups, 10 more cm for standing broad jump, and 10 seconds off 2.4km. Then I need not waste 2 months of my time becoming stupidier in army.

And I'm deciding whether to pon school tmr to do H3 chem... But then I wanna watch soccer boys... Becuz I never watch at all this year haiz...

So I'm just gonna live tmr out, go home and organise my life... And organise how I'm gonna spend the next 2 weeks chionging the above 3 items first... H3, SAT and NEFMQ... After that, there's like PSC psychometric test, and chiong NEFMQ and H2 subjects...

And gosh... I think I'll just like screw up CT2... I'm like quite serious... At least I won't be top few... Considering I haven't been studying for the past 4 weeks while most ppl are done with their sports events in like april, and a lot of CCAs all step down le...

Haha but who cares, prelims is the one that matters...

So Garrett! Concentrate!

H3 Chem Distinction!!!
SAT 2150+
NEFMQ Final Round!!!
NAPFA Silver!!!

And OMG Band is like almost over le... Left JTS, maybe and only MAYBE Urban Hike, then that's it. Investiture somewhere in July? And OMG that's it already... Xian... Miss everyone from VJCSB and hope we won't drift like apart since there's no more official practice anymore. Hope ppl will still come back to study and mug together...

Oh wells... This is like sooo depressing...

SYF!!!

Gold. Au. Density 19 times of water. Pure Gold. Yay!!!

So yea, the mood was a bit weird and OMG I think I like crushed Daniel's hands hahahaha...

It was like..

Bla bla bla silver... Ok, expected.
SAJC .. Gold.... OMG? WDF? Turned around and saw ppl crying...
VJC... ( Squeeze Daniel's hands like mad!!) Gold...

Oh... Um... Ok...

Yea, and some were crying, some were tearing, I was tearing... But I dunno y either... My last 2 syfs, even though we got gold, it was a happy one. This year, a Gold is just so common... But still, JC band standards are so high that Gold is great already!

And so comes lectures from Dr Goh, Gabriel, Mr Wong, Gillian... Haha saying the same things over and over... But I disagreed though. I felt that our emotions are ours. If we wanna cry or feel sad, that's our own problem. Our own expectations. But of course, we shouldn't blame ourselves. If not, I'll be blaming myself for the last 4 bars screw up percussion solo of overture, the missing of 2 counts in windscapes even though I missed it in the morning practice and hidhir warned me about it. The super digusting timpani solo roll at like the end of windscapes...

The list is endless. But like who cares? At least we did our best. And with only 1 proper full band a week even the month b4 SYF, I should say that our band did well. Most importantly, I had fun!

Ok, then we went to eat at sakae sushi yum! But I only took like 10 plates... Epic failure.. Compared to Dewei who always eat like 19? Then we went walk walk walk abit ha ha and me and hidhir played dressing up ECs hahaha.. It's SOOOOO FUN!!! My outfit for T is like soooo freaking hot la...

And here I am planning my life now... Things to juggle...

1) H3 lab report
2) H3 mugging
3) SAT
4) Econs competition
5) Strings concert
6) Band concert

Ugh... Super irritating ok... Not to mention normal H2 workload... Oh wells... Time to go organic chemistrying... Byes..

Last few moments in band...

SYF's tmr, and it's like my final ever SYF... Looking back there are like so many regrets in life, but like too bad, life has to move on... Tmr, I wonder what will happen. How I will play, how my section will play, or how the band will play. I wonder what the results will be. 15 hours more till the results... This would determine the band's future for the next 2 years maybe? Band funding and support from the school, band morale and most importantly, ownership of the band room...

Haiz... O well, I hope all of us will play our best yay!!

Anyway, gossip girl and desperate housewives are just improving exponentially... Furthermore with me being a bit emo these few weeks, I cried during this particular scene... Where Gabrielle's daughter tried to wear make up as her friends called her as adopted, saying that she's too ugly to be Gabrielle's daughter... In the end, Gabrielle mentioned that it's the inner beauty that matters, I know it's super cliche, but the way she said it is super emo la... Sighs... Ok, I know this is sooo not the time to talk about this but yea...

Oh but gossip girl was a blast!!! OMG!! Super scandalous and everything!!! That's what I looooove about chick lit and films, u can just immerse yourself in this perfect world for 40 minutes, after which it's back to reality... Into the world full of problems and troubles and more problems... " Tell Jesus the bitch is back." OMG This is like soooooo funny!!! Can't like totallllyyy wait for the next episode...

Ok, g2g sleep. It's SYF tmr and I'm sooo excited!!! Yea!!
