Time draws nearer

I'm back, after being MIA for quite some time. Haven't really been busy, just kind of lazy to blog. (;

Went for Mass Comm interview at NP yesterday. It was okay I guess, shall just wait for the results patiently, hahaha.

Then today, there was SSW rehearsal. Side-read a piece, Elegy for Ur before calling it a day. Had lunch at Bishan with some committee people + Shawn. Discussed some things for awhile before heading over to J8's Swensens for our desert, lol. Had Frosted Chocolate Malt... too sweet for my liking. And I treated Eugene to his ice-cream, since his birthday was coming. He said he would pay me back though. I don't mind :b Then Mr A. Ng came over to help configure a computer/workstation for Jonas. Should be going to SLS with them next week to get the parts. Can get my keyboard at the same time.

Jonas and Mr Ng left, and the rest of us went to Yamaha at PS cause Cheng Fu wanted to get some stuff. Didn't get anything at the end though, but we're going to Band World this coming wednesday cause it's cheaper there.

CNY is approaching :D

A whole new step in life

Got back O-level results yesterday. Can't say I'm really satisfied, but its still ok. Ask me personally if you wanna know, hahaha. Combined Humans was quite disappointing :/ Math and physics was surprising, lol.

Went out with some class peeps after collecting results. We had dinner first at PS's Ichiban Sushi, then went down to play at the arcade. Then walked to Paradiz Centre for LAN.

4e2'08 is starting to drift further apart already. Yesterday might be the last time I'm seeing some of them. Now we're all going to different places. Outings will be less frequent, then we may lose contact eventually(hope this will not happen, haha). :D

I just though of an idea that will make me blog more often; set blogger as my homepage, lol. That way, everytime I reach home and open my browser, everything is still fresh in my mind for me to blog. Well, lets see whether it works.

Anyway, there was a class outing yesterday. We met at 1pm at city hall MRT. I was late, as well as the others, haha. Only Melvin and Louis were punctual. Had our lunch at Marina Square's Seoul Garden, all the way till 4pm. Then we got tickets for Transporter 3. While waiting for the movie, Poh Shen went high with Alif's camera, going around taking random and stupid photos. The movie wasn't that great. 2 was better, I didn't watch 1, lol.

They felt like playing CS, so we took train to Dhoby Ghaut and walked to Paradiz Centre. We played for quite a long time, all the way to 11pm. So thats like, 3 hours.




Today... went for NP's open house. Met Greg at Hougang MRT, and waited for Jere Tay and Ivan. Went on to Hougang Plaza to meet the rest. Had lunch, and we walked to the nearby bus stop. After missing four 74s on purpose(they only wanted a double-decker one). They had their fun by waving at random people from the bus on the way, hahaha.

The poly was really big, and saw some people whom I know. Nothing much to comment on the open house, as we didn't learn much of anything. Most of the time spent there was on walking aimlessly, lol. The ride to NP was long, but the ride back home was even longer. Dozed off a couple of times on the bus, haha.

Back to school to help out for the open house tomorrow.

First post of 09

I know its quite late already, but happy new year to everyone! 2009 will be a fresh start for me now that I've graduated from secondary school. Results out on the 12th this month. I know it's no use complaining that I haven't studied enough, so I won't. It's too late for stuff like that. Bet I'll be super numb when taking my results, hahaha.

Spent the last day of 2008 at Jonas' place, along with Gerald, Xiao Ting, Tiffany, and Cheng Fu. Oh but before that, I went to City Music again with Jia Wei and Hong Zheng. He got his multi effects pedal and I got my guitar. We stayed there for like an hour cause what HZ couldn't decide what to get, lol. Then took train with them until Serangoon, where I got off and took bus 22 to Jonas' house.

Spent almost a whole 24 hours there watching movies. His house really got tons of movies la o.o. His sound system also very nice. First movie was Pirates of the Carribean : The Black Pearl, on Star Movies. Then we had our dinner, ta pau-ed back by the 2 girls+Jonas. Second one(Dead Man's Chest) was boring, so we watched Phantom of the Opera instead. My first time watching, lol. It's quite nice indeed. Changed back to Star Movies for 3rd PotC. Then Kung Fu Hustle, then Forbidden Kingdom, which ended around 5am. Slept, and woke up at 10.24am. Played some DJmax while waiting for the rest. Ate breakfast, and continued our movie marathon, haha. Started off with 28 days later, but didn't watch the whole thing. Then Shoot 'Em Up. Also didn't watch the whole thing. Continued with 4bia, and lastly, Kung Fu Dunk. I think there's more, but I can't remember -_-. Left his place at 8, took bus to AMK for dinner, and finally went back.

Next day, 2nd Jan. Went back to school to help out. Taught the trumpet juniors, and my own junior. Had lunch at some porridge stall near school with Jeremy, Melvin, and Gerald.

3rd Jan. SSW annual general meeting in the morning. Side-read through the Queen Symphony, a damn nice piece. Rehearsal ended very early, at 1.30pm. Had lunch at the cafe and slacked around a bit. Later, around 3-4, went to Dhoby Ghaut with Jonas, Jocelyn, Cheryl, Tiffany, Cheng Fu, Xiao Ting, Gerald, and Fikri. Bought tickets for Ip Man at the Cathay for the 7.40 show. Since we had plenty of time, we walked back to Dhoby Ghaut Exchange at the station. Had dinner at some place. There were free flow drinks and ice-cream, meaning we could stay there for a very long time, lol. After eating, we walked down to Music Essentials, just to kill time. Looked around, and went back. Movie was very thrilling and exciting. Ip Man's a really good show overall.

4th Jan, yesterday. Wee Ong's birthday, Happy belated birthday! Old liao, lol. Went for SWO rehearsal. First time seeing 7 horns in a rehearsal. Side read Rebroll, Cantiphonia, Bassoon Concerto, Atmospheres, and Queen Symphony. Had dinner with Mitchell and Mr. Ng at Northpoint's food court, walked around, then went back.

Today, I'm going to clean my incredibly messy room, which I have been procastinating since the end of O-levels(taboo words, haha). Also going to spend the day practising my new instrument (:
