CCA

Had C1 Audition today.

For once, I was glad that my '92 self was made to study with the '93s and as a result have to go uni 3 years later than my classmates in China. Cos audition was just SCARY. haha I dont think I'd have done a better job than my juniors.

anyways, during the short 1/2 hr orientation today we were made to share our learning journey/inspiration etc, and it struck to me how time really flies and we are seniors now and that we are leaving. SYF is round the corner, our dance is 1/5 choreo-ed, but I cant help but feel that my time with indian dance and perhaps with my dear s67 classmates is ending in a few months time. On one hand, I'm really tired of the start-school-at-8-and-end-school-at-7-->work-nonstop-for-11-hours-a-day schedule, espcially when there're more work to be done after I reach home, but at the same time I'm already missing all these times. I mean, life WILL be different after we graduate, and while they may be better/fun-ner/etc, the feeling of being a high-school student wont return and this chapter of life will end and a new page will start. (BTW, we are considered as high school students. Read the hci/nygh history and you'll realise that the name "high school" was kept cos of historical reasons, and that in reality nygh and hci (secondary section) are not high schools. oh please.)

enough of the digression. I MISS school life!!!

Block Test

The block test every year never fails to remind me what an unorthodox subject combi I have taken. I had thought that the first block test was bad, considering how the econs people can finish the paper in the morning but I have to go in the afternoon. Back then, YingJing was complaining about how she has to finish all but one paper in the first three days, then wait for the last paper to be done on the last day.

Then came promos, when I finished an amazing 7 papers (7!!!!!) in 4 days, and by the end of the last day I was so burnt out I lost my mind during Maths and had my lowest score in all my 11 years of studying.

I really really love what I'm studying, I mean, hey I get to just dream through all the wonderful CLL lessons watching 茶馆 and the like, and immerse myself in the world of lit. But then again, I really HATE IT!!! when it comes to exams.

here's my timetable:

11 Mar Fri: GP

21 Mar Mon: ----

22 Mar Tue: ---

23 Mar Wed:
0815-1115 Maths
1300-1515 CSC

24 Mar Thur:
0815-1035 Chem
1300-1600 CLL
1700-1800 H3 Physcis Tutorial

25 Mar Fri:
0815-1110 Physics

A big thank you to the timetable coordinators!!! I'm SO HAPPY that I have 2 days of extra holidays before my exams start. And I absolutely love the fact that my nightmare repeats again, with the wonderful 2 papers/day, plus this time with H3 tutorial too!!!!! woohoo!!!!!

---the above is with all the sarcatism intended, yepp---

haha ok, that aside, it's not that bad actually. cos I remember MingMing had GP CLL FRENCH all on the same day last year for PRELIMS. Well, she still got 2nd in the level right? Now THAT's what I call IMBA. and IMBA people eventually went Harvard.

新年快乐！

趁信念的时候终于看了一直想看却没看成的电影。趁着电影又google了一下王力宏，发现他竟然是Williams College毕业的！！！ （Williams!!! awww...）而且他的论文还得过康奈尔大学论文比赛的第二名哪。

想说，就算当艺人也果然是聪明有头脑的艺人才能红啊，而且红得长久。Williams的英式Tutorial/Lecture 课程“远近驰名”，不巧每天还是写本人最头痛的论文诶。从刚才那一刻起我决定崇拜王力宏了。我要当他的粉丝！哈哈。

读了他一些访谈，看过他的电影，觉得他是一个很有水平的人。所以读书很重要，水平也很重要啊！那些爆红的空壳儿们有多少能出道17年，还属于偶像的？

It's a brand new year!

Went to try out my contact lens after lunch. I didnt buy it cos I want to be prettier or anything, it is solely for the sake of taking nice photos and for SYF.

I thought that it would be easy. I mean, keep your eyes open, take the lens, pop it in, right? But today I learnt that the involuntary actions of the human body is--as its name suggests--INvoluntary. No matter how I told my eyes to KEEP OPEN!! they just keep on blinking,blinking,blinking. By the time I finally put them in I was sweating like mad.

and then the girl over the counter told me to practise take them off. o.m.g.

not to mention that i cut off three acrylic nails on each hand so that i wouldnt be poking my eyes. there goes my $80 manicure.

I realised that songs are actually connected to our memories. Like, when I hear certain songs i am always reminded of the activities that i had done related to that song. For example, there's the Ne-yo songs and beyonce songs that I heard when i was in sec 3 happily touring Australia with friends, so even though i stopped liking these songs now when I hear them I still feel very happy cos they remind me of those happy days. And there are the Hot N Cold by Kate Perry and Viva la Vida by Coldplay, whose songs i like cos I went to sing K with nana and ah ma, and they remind me of those 'adventures' and things. And cos I spent a good couple of late nights catching up with novels while listening to them so they kinda bring me back to those post-promos-but-not-yet-PW days as well.

emo一下~

我又回来emo了~~

也没什么啦，只是报馆的活动又和出国撞期，很不爽，也觉得很遗憾。以后要练的厚颜无耻一点，不是自己的错就不要给自己太大压力啦^^

想到来临的学校假期的活动，惊讶我给自己安排了这么多活动，也想到作出的选择。现在觉得每一个决定都揪心啊！不过老了以后应该不会觉得有什么大不了的，哈哈。

FOS

today was so fun. ahem ahem not the fos part though.

I tried alot of things that I wouldnt have dared to try before. but thinking about graduating next year and I felt that I should just do something on impulse once and not always be that good student.

anyway, that's beside the point.

went to k-box with ahma and nana. it was so fun! :D I spent 2 hours watching ah ma eat her extremely large set of breakfast, then nana eating her lunch set meal. then we went to k and sang some songs. apparently the two ahmas are not on good terms with wu-yue-tian, the convo went like this:

me:" what's this _(name of song)_ har?"
nana: "mayday song."
me:" orh. I dont know how to sing, maybe i heard the chorus but that's all." (push mike to ahma)
ahma: (push back to me, flash her signature bright smile).
nana: ......

------more singing and then:
me:" what's this __(name of song)__ har?"
nana: "mayday song."
me:" orh. I dont know how to sing, maybe i heard the chorus but that's all." (push mike to ahma)
ahma: (push back to me, flash her signature bright smile).

and it went on like this until it becaue default setting that nana shall just take over all the mayday songs.

then we tried this 天下无双, theme song for 神雕侠侣, and suddenly the light went off and the eerie "ah~~~" came out from the speaker. that was VERY nice.

haha i think this is the first time I actually enjoyed singing k-box. and muack muack ahma for paying for me! it was a nice bdae present i shall buy you a cat next year hahaha~~~
