Saturday: Probably the most reflective and tiring day of the week. Why? Cos I am often misunderstood by pple therefore I hafta make myself clear even though I cannot be bothered by those biguns that have nothing else better to do than daoing pple...
Check
this link to see why am I saying that.
I will narrate my day first. I woke up at 10.30 and watched Mean Girls until 11.20 before buying roasted chicken rice for lunch. Then my father sent me to school for VE at 1pm.
Once there, saw Ms Siew fighting wif another guy and stuff... It took her until 1.30 to finished her fight before we can begin for VE. Jeffrey for some reason, dao me again, I was actually a little bit bothered by it. So we started warmups and sang Di Tanjung Katong and stuff... I went off at 2pm for band.
Then we had more outdoor practice at band, it was boring and tiring la aniwaez, and were dismissed at 5.45. So my father fetched me and Eric for dinner at Ang Mo Kio, where we had zhu tong fan and sent him home. So now, I am pouring out all my feelings for those interested and dearest Jeffrey which dao me again....
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lemme write a story called "Khee Xuan". Explanation of neopiggy's wonderfully writen spoof of my personality and stuff...
"i once had a friend called khee xuan
he was a very cute boy
he had an innocent look
but it was all a decoy"
I agree with the first line, jeffrey WAS indeed my friend, but not with the second and third line, cos i ain't "cute" nor "innocent", and can i help it if i really do look "innocent"? I mean, wow, 'decoy'! It is used as a propaganda for other friends to dao me cos I 'betrayed' dearest Jeffrey. I never said that I want to look cute or innocent, for that matter. I mean, yes, even though this sounds bitchy or wadeva, under the influence of Mean Girls and quote quote* "Isit my fault if pple are jealous? I mean, I cant help it if I am popular." Which i ain't so arrogant in this way. God noes why evryone keeps calling me cute? I realli wonder.... And yes, I was young and innocent when I was P6, but definitely not when I am in secondary school. I dare say tt no one in this school is innocent for that matter. Think of pple like your OTHER friends, Sua yu and etc... Do u think tt he is innocent? Rite....
"he seemed to have good heart
it seemed full of good traits
he was a backstabbing person
unknowingly i took the bait"
As I have mentioned, I describe myself as a friendly and bright person, so if u call that a gd heart, i will thank you for that. Yep, I must say that I am also backstabbing, how else do you think i can make it into top 4 for survivor worldwide and and you didnt took the bait. I definitely didnt intentionally plot for your embarrassment or something. I mean, what do you expect? I keep a BURN BOOK at home all about you? Think again, I noe I am insensitive sometimes, but I ain't mean like some of your other self-centred friends.
"often i confided in him
i told him all i knew
to my horror and my shock
he told everyone else too"
Jeffrey, if you remembered, I did told you that I am your friend but not your best friend and wadeva that you can confide into me unless it is a mutual thing between the both of us. And of cos, I didnt tell everyone else about ur so-called secret other than kun won. I mean think this way, almost the whole of our class knows abt your feelings towards 'him'. So it wasnt realli a secret anymore. You were like damn obvious in revealing ur true feelings to 'him', taking snapshots of him, thinking abt his eyes and wadeva crap. Furthermore, if u think it this way, by telling me all your true feelings to 'him' and how u dreamt abt him and stuff, don't u find it overwhelming if some friend tt u thot was straight started to tell u that he is gay? Of cos, i then hafto confide into kun won and tell him how troubled I am being a so-called middleman between u and 'him'.
But alas, he told Jianyang abt and even though I am disappointed with him but as u noe, he is rather homophobic so he had to ask for Jian yang's opinion. i mean, kun won wasnt just against you or sth, he didnt like other so-called gays in our class as well wad.... And to our horror, Jianyang posted wadeva 'secrets' kun won told him on his blog and now everyone noes abt wad they already known and did they have a big reaction? No? As i have mentioned, everyone knows abt it after Humanities Nite liao! And did i spread it to everyone, or harbour the intention to? No! Look at it this way, Khee Xuan to Kun Won --> Kun Won to Jian Yang ---> Jian yang'blog = everyone noes.... So i indirectly did but was i the mastermind? NO!!!
"so here i am stuck with a guy
i used to call my friend
too many times he has done this
i guess this is the end
i have done everything i could
tell me what to try
but since they all don't seem to work
i guess it's now goodbye"
Jeffrey, u aint stuck wif mi u noe, u can continue have friendship wif others. I mean, even though it might be a pity losing a friend that will have recess wif me, that will tok to me, and share lame jokes wif me, and accompany me to where I go, to tok to during VE, to buy drinks for me and vice versa, to laugh at pple, and laugh at ourselves for being stupid, have a common topic to chat abt such as 'u and 'him'', I cannot realli promise wad life will be with the Weishi treatment you are giving me. Even though some of my friends encouraged me to give up on you and not to be your friend, I realli do consider abt it at times. I didnt 'did it' so many times. I mean, you are the only over-sensitive person that will be angry if I called u Cady. I mean, i noe i am insensitive and calls Jian yi a malay (sua yu does tt too) and ting wei a black (who dusen) and other mean things, but I will stop if you ask me to. I am already stopping it liao, and after reflection, I noe tt I have to be more sensitive. And i am trying to act my part, with those 'cute and innocent' face and good heart or wadeva personality i seemed to portray and stuff.... But, sometimes, you shld think abt it oso, why am I always the person pple dao? Cant u just tink of my gd points and encouraged to change my bad pts? I mean, I understand ur sincerity, jeffrey, esp. during IH nite when u prayed for me during One Voice and hugged me after I won the Best Actor, i mean i was really touched but now, things are going in an awful turn. I am now the Cady which everyone hates. So that's that. I will be hypocritical if I said that my life won't be affected without your company, so its up to you to think and I do hope that this issue of me being the devil and u being the angel will cool down in a few wks time....

Friday: Even more tiring day...
Firstly we went for band in the morning, where my mouth still hurts cos my stupid located pimple and was pushed by my mouthpiece when I was playing the school song. *Pain*
Then we went back to class for Zheng Hang's and Yong Lin's RP presentation on 'Censorship is an insult to human's intelligence', which was originally Albert's and my topic but I was still at band. So too bad...
Next, was Laurang's lesson again when we were taught about the casket scene for Prince Morocco for Merchant of Venice. Boring, bad start of the day... But nevertheless we managed to scrap through it and at 8.40 we were officially off lessons!
We went to Kallang to support the canoeist and saw Sean's class (2D) on the bus and we were supposed to sit wif them. Then, suddenly, some of them called us gays and sissies and dun wanna sit wif us and stuff. Luckily, in the end, we were supposed to change into another bus so we dun have to sit with the immature mainstreamers that called us gays and stuff... Sean told mi tt he slapped the guy that called me a gay when he asked me to sit wif him, phew, he is indeed a gd friend.
So we sat on the bus with Mr. Kent Cheong until we reached Kallang in 35mins time. Then we went to support them for abt an hr then we went to the starting pt of the competition where there were no pple there and cheered the Huazhong circle created by Kun Won and Jian Yang. Frankly, Jianyang can really control our class very well. I mean, even sua yu or kun won cannot do as well sometimes. Lol, so we were lame and said 'Hua zhong' from loud to soft one by one. Damn lame but very farni....
At abt 11.30, me, yufeng, shengwei, kunwon, qianxiang and marcus walked off for our Ep3. We took a bus at 11.50 and arrived at 12.15. So we went to coronation to have lunch and rushed back to school. I was damn full after eating 3/4 of the lemon chicken rice and drank ice milo wif jelly. delicious though. :P
Then we had band after that with outdoor from 1.30 to 4.30. Damn tiring... And we stayed in band room, playing bridge and big 2 until 6.15. Haiz, me and sean played wif yiyi and li chan, kianhong, jin hao and weixin and some other pple whereas khaiboon n gang went for basketball. Lol, so I went home with Eric cos we both take bus 74 and tok alot. It is very fun toking to him la. Got to noe him, Sean and terence better todae. Even though outdoor is tiring, but the after band time is good for socialising, which Kunwon told mi tt he was impossible to socialise wif pple. KW, work on it cos u can do it, k? :D
So I went home and had laksa for dinner and blogging now lorh... :P

Thursday: Tiring day
I started off with band today, when Zheng Hang made the announcement for flag raising. The track and field presentation was damn freaking long and time wasting and the applause was very little cos they completely lost the audience. So when Mr. Hon came for the speech and evryone cheered, he invited virtually evryone up from track and field, table tennis, judo, water polo pple and tok more rubbish before touching the topic on the very much anticipated early dismissal.
Haiz, in the end, Mr. Hon gave us early dismissal at 12pm today and tml. I mean, what's the use? Australiam Maths Competition will still make us be dismissed on time and for tomorrow, we have to watch and 'support' the canoeists.
So after dismissal, we went back to class and started off with CS Lesson. So we touched on some Photoshop n Flash stuff to prepare for our test next week and stuff before the bell rang.
Then it was geog. It was basically a slacking period cos Ms Foo said tt we were one lesson ahead of the others therefore we can slack. basically she is just tired and stuff la so it is advantageous for us. :D
Then we went for early recess at 9.15. Me and Jeffrey had food from the green plate store (I had prawn mee), then yu feng had the purple plate one and the rest(Jianyi, Marcus, Hurwitz and shengwei) had baked potato and cut-up bread and a bowl of soup. The potato seems nice, with a variety of sour cream or ham and cheese or wadeva. I koped on mouthful from jianyi. It wasnt realli bad so mebbe next time I might try it.
Next it was Chinese lesson, when sua yu n jeffrey presented their chinese history presentation on Wu Ze Tian. It was quite informative and stuff. Mebbe it is more factual therefore it somehow lacks some creativity and dusen realli gain much attention. But it was ok and yep, we spent one lesson on it.
Sigh, Laura Ng Mrs. came to take over for Science again and we were forced to study 3 acts of scene 2 that were utterly boring and humourless. I almost fell asleep lorh... Haiz, who cares abt fanciful names like Gratiano, Shylock, Lorenzo and Jessica? Haiz, MOV is definitely not my cup of tea la.
Then we had music lesson and we played wif different instruments to show different kinds of mood. We chosen anger at first and me, qianxiang and marcus hit the glockenspiel furiously like mad whereas sheng wei snapped the castanet crazily, Albert hit the bongo as if there were no tml and casey shook the anklung like siao. Then we had to play to the mood of sadness when we played slow one beat note then rest for three beat and hit one beat again that was damn stupid and idiotic. But nvm, it was 12pm after the lesson, so that mean, AMC time!
We went to Lt4 at first and evryone snatched to find a seat near ZhengHang. Budden it was known that most of us except taiboon, jiefu and jianyi were supposed to report at LT2. So off we went and took the test. It was relatively hard and I think I got one mistake. After the whole thing, we went for lunch.
Lerong, me, yufeng n yonglin were discussin abt the answers and lerong kept toking abt winning medals and high distinction and stuff. Haiz, I mean I will be so damn happy to get high distinction and find no need to win a medal or wadsoeva. Then after me, Jianyi, darrell and jeffrey went to KKH for VE practice while I went for band.
On the way, jianyi and jeffrey went to toilet so I decided to sabo Darrell and ask him to shout "Cady" at jeffrey when we came out. So he did that and was kana beaten up. Then jeffrey started to whack me like mad. I think tt he is really pissed off.. Mebbe I shant tease him anymore... Lol. I very bad but isnt that KX?
So then I went for band and toked to Sean and terence and went for the field for the outdoor band practice. So we practiced for abt 2 hrs until jeffrey called me at 4.30 break time and asked me whether if I could go to the hall and sing wif the VE. So Khai boon allowed me to go and so I went to KKH for the VE thing.
When I ran to meet them, Jeffrey suddenly blurted out "here comes the xiao shuai ge (Handsome boy)" and I was like wth, me? Then he kept repeating and sort of pissed me off. See, I noe whether I am handsome or not ok? I noe I ain't as handsome as u-noe-who so pls, all you can do as a friend is not to mock me for being ugly. I am not ugly oso la, i am just an average looking person lorh mebbe.
So after band Sean, Rujun and Harrapan approached to do next yr's project day with them as a second project or sth so I say why not.... Cant say much abt it... Btw, I toked more wif sean and rujun again and terence then we played games and stuff. Haha, me very happy that Sean treats me as a very close friend. Yar, I feel very close to him as well so its rather mutual I supposed.
So at 7pm, we left the band room and I slept through the whole bus ride and had chicken wings, prawns and porridge for dinner. Quite ok la, then watching my mom's show - "Perfect Woman", channel u at 8pm. It is rather lame and stupid but just watch it la...
So now I hafta go liao cos I hafta do the Financial Maths thingy.

Tuesdae and Wednesdae: Fun and movies daes!!!
Tuesday: It was Jianyi's birthday yesterday. We had our lessons and stuff, scraped through the boring 'Car Loan' math lesson, then chinese, when we spent the whole lesson abt 'gong han'. Btw, yonglin was very gd in the chinese flag raising ceremony report yesterdae...
Then we had recess, and sec 2 assembly, which Benjamin Chow was the emcee. Then we watched the PCME spastic play put up by the Singapore Broadway Studios or sth about Total Defence and stuff. It was corny but the girl that intended to sing badly for 'I Never Had A Dream Come True." sang quite well indeed, if she didnt purposefully anyhow inunciate the consonants and stuff...
Then we had double Literature when we continued studying Merchant of Venice that was totally boring. Gosh, it was so disinteresting that I won't want to take a second look at it after the lit. test. Anyway, Sua yu actually past the double period without the book. Anywayz, when Laurang Mrs. wanted Tai Boon and Jian Yang to recite the verses by Prince of Morocco and Portia respectively, Jianyang of cos' had a lot of applause due to his intelligence and popularity in class whereas Tai boon was infamous so people didnt really clap for him. Two words of advice my boy, that is : Too bad. Btw, Mrs. Ng finally pronounced Jian Yang's name properly instead of 'Chian' with that irritating English accent. Lol, no offence...
Then we had top bars for snack before going back to class in anticipation of Chinese common test. Ok, so when everything was ready, Mr. Kent Cheong stepped in and gave our papers. Then we quickly did the paper in 2hrs and I did abt Racial Harmony for the 'si han' and the Drugs synthetica wadeva thingy for the compo itself.
After the test, me, Sua yu, Jianyi and Jeffrey took a taxi to Tampines Mall to watch "Mean Girls", which Jian yang actually said that it was quite nice. So we went to the cinema, bought the tickets 10mins before the show, then jianyi and suayu bought popcorn and drinks, Jeffrey bought nachos and I bought the advertised cheesy hotdogs that were quite nice, cheesy and 'greasy'. Dotz.
So, the whole show was very nice. The jokes were funny and stuff, and Lindsay Lohan was called Cady but pple always mispronounce her name as 'Kathy' and stuff, and she was an average African girl type until she joined this plastic clique wadeva and became popular and fell in love wif a guy sitting in front of her during Calculus class called Aaron Samuel.
So we sorta fit ourselves quite nicely in the characters list:
1. Regina George - The leader of the plastic clique, arrogant and leader-like : Sua Yu (white n a lil overweight eventually... :P Jkin...)
2. Gretchen - Secret-leaker, fave line: "I didnt tell anyone that Regina had a nose job. Omigosh, pretend u didnt heard that.": Me!!! In the end, she became the leader of the Vietnam gals clique.
3. Karen - Stupid dumb bimbo, that actually squeezes her breasts to check the weather when it is apparently raining and can fit her fist into her hand, like kun won : Jian Yi, equally dumb and silly. :D
4. Cady - The 'innocent' girl and fell in love wif Aaron, eventually won some Spring Fling Queen thing: Jeffrey, not the characteristics and the ending though... But those that watch should strike a balance....
5. Aaron - The not-so-handsome guy (in my opinion) that Cady had a crush on, some rugby player and stuff: Identity Disclosed
So at abt 6.30. we continued to shop and we had our dinner at Yoshinoya, when I bought a Beef bowl and then bought a lemonande pearl from California lemonade. Then sua yu went off for his councillor stayover for wed's TnF. So we continued shopping at each level toking crap here and there and Jian Yi opened his pressie and stuff... Haiz, I tink Jeffrey must b very sad cos Jianyi didnt seemed very happy abt it and didnt even say thanks. Haiz, he was also not enthu abt sua yu's lame bk of illustrated cliches. Anyway, we went home at 8 and took MRT together.
I reached home at abt 9.05 and bathed and played com until 11 sth when I finished history hmwk and watched a lil bit of Holland V and slept.
NEXT DAY------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wednesdae: Began the whole morning with band, which we terribly screwed up the school song cos' Clarence was absent at some overseas band camp cos he is so damn qiang, leaving Dion, Jansen and another sec one which cannot sustain the trumpet section and therefore died-ed after playing 76trbs and national anthem. The school song playing sucks la basically, but nvm.... Anyway, Aaron (Samuel) made a rather ok flag raising report todae...
So we started wif Maths and we did the whole project thingy that went quite well and had Com. studies when we were once again introduced to Flash again, which I suck terribly. It took me abt 10mins for the shape tweening thingy lorh... Then we had literature taking over Mr. Suresh's Science period as he went to Korea for a conference. At this moment, some woman came in wif a slip of paper that pple wif 3rd lang are exempted from going to the TnF and had to attend 3rd lang. Omg, tt means we are free from 12-4.30!! Yeah!
Then we had recess, when me and Jeffrey had nasi bryani, yufeng and shengwei had some orange plate stall rice, Hurwitz and Marcus had nice dory fish for recess. marcus's dory fish was so damn pathetic, its like one slice of small fish and lemon. Very cham.
So we had history next, when we did the workbk wif only 11 pple left in the class. Lol, it was rather peaceful and relaxed while we finished history, when Mrs. Giam showed us her email from her friend called Pinky tt was injured at the Iraq war and some pics, it was realli touching and emotional in a way and Mrs. Giam was rather heartbroken from what we can see cos her husband n her are very close to the friends from the same academy.
Then we had chinese, when we talked abt the news and the changing of Hua Zhong's name and the common test we did yesterdae... Hope i dun flunk it... Haiz...
Then it was all over. 6 of us: Marcus, Hurwitz, Sheng Wei, Yu Feng, Jeffrey n I decided to go to J8, then watch I, Robot then go 3rd lang. So Hurwitz n Marcus went to take taxi and arranged to meet us outside the cinema, yufeng went home to collect his 3rd lang stuff and me, jeffrey n shengwei went to J8 to buy the tics then we went shopping until 1.30 when we met up outside the cinema.
There was a lil conflicting in the seats cos u noe the pple there, shengwei, yufeng n jeffrey... So we had to pick our own tickets and the arrangement in the end was jeffrey, me, shengwei, yufeng, marcus n hurwitz. Basically, the movie was very gd and thrilling in a sense, a big difference from Mean Girls... Favourite quote, Will Smith suddenly went, "Grohhgh... Sorry, I am allergic to bullshit." when he eavesdrop the convo between the boss of the robots and the psychologists... Nvm , u wun understand....
Then we went to KFC to buy some snacks cos the movie ended at 3.45. I bought a med whipped potato, marcus bought a med whipped potato and one drumstick, hurwitz bought large popcorn chicken, shengwei n yufeng n jeffrey bought bandito packets tt looked so delicious. So I koped one mouthful from shengwei and was so tempted n bought one for myself in the end. haiz, i spent alot this week liao la but nvm, wad r savings for? Spending, of cos!
Then we went for third lang and I continued teasing the Cady n Aaron thing until I pissed them off hopefully and had our boring lesson wif only 11 pple in our class... Lol...
Then I went home and had fried fish burger for dinner and i finished blogging now... mi dloading scary movie 3 now oso...Lol...

Thursday: Good n bad day - so cancel cancel equals a fairly eventful day.....
Went to pia my eng compre summary at 6.40 at school and went for band memorising the tangshi for today's chinese test that constitutes 15/70 of our test score. Budden I took 10mins to memorise the 3 tangshis which made kun won feel bad cos he tok hrs and i took a short time to memorise, but kun won, efforts reaped rewards... (does it go this way?)
Anyway, we went for band and played the national anthem. During jie san heard from pple tt Terence my SL, was bonded yesterdae after the Racial harmony day concert and a button went off... Lol... And Khai Boon suddenly wailed at me, cos Person X was absent today.
A lil abt Person X, a seemingly suicidal being that wrote on his nick to end everything sweetly on thurs, which happens to be today... It's rather scary as on his blog n nick, he was feeling suicidal. So me n khaiboon actually was rather worried abt him. His absence shocked both of us, is he realli goin to kill himself? He couldnt be reached so i hope we were just oversuspicious and went back to class...
Back at class, I read the National Geographic magazine and read the poster for 5 mins and spent 2 mins on folding the poster back then reading period was over. So we went to com. lab for CS lesson and did our poster design for the 'lighthse' restaurant with a template and colour matching as distinct n awkward just like the teacher himself. And we did our filecheck and got some ACE and went off for Geog lesson.
Geog - we learnt about the energy usage in UK and Gambia, and I was gped wif Jeffrey, Qianxiang n hurwitz... Then chat here chat there and lesson ended.... Which means... Recess!!!
But of cos', being dilligent n studious, i stayed back and asked shian yang to help me to buy a top bar from the food vending machine. He's a rather kind boy in my opinion, and i realli do respect him for his intelligence. But sometimes he's rather cynical. He has a very good command of English btw, in comparison, I feel alot like an inferior being. U realli tink i am so dilligent isit? I was pia-ing my summary and language worksheet. This time, I dunno whether i shld be happy to see that the Big Pink Fluffy Cloud (BPFC) and Depressed Lil Pixie (DLP) were getting along very well, doing revision together as if they were gd friends....
Anyway, recess was over and it was time for the chinese test. It is rather ez and I finished it in 15mins time. When Yang teacher went to check my paper he was rather contented i think, cos when he collected the paper, he said tt they are some pple tt might get full marks. Hmm... At least i put in effort, i do hope i get 66 and above....
Next was Science lesson, when we spent the whole period toking abt electricity and current, and voltage n resistance and stuff... Totally cool....
Then we had Music appreciation lesson, and we experimented wif different percussion instruments... It was rather fun, esp. wif 2O's lame jokes n stuff.... Then by the time we went back to class, it was time for english....
English was also ok, we spent abt an hr doing the summary and usage of language wksheets then another half hr doing oral prep. I suck basically, but tts not the pt....
Then we had lunch, and i only ate half of my plate and wasted the rest, this must be my pre-exam stress i guess.... So it was oral exam at CR at the library and i was so very excited... haiz, we waited for hr and the 13-15 pupuls under Ms Ong were tested and mr. liew was only at his 5th pupil... I waited until 4.45 until Jeremy finished his oral and I came in for my test...
I was so damn scared that I stumbled here and there and all the fear came in. Then i sucked during the interview cos Mr. Liew wanted me to sing a song to entertain him which I didnt. SO i tink i got a very low score cos i didnt realli answer the qn.s and i saw a 4/10 for one section... haiz....
Btw, DLP actualli allowed BPFC to put his arm over his shoulder... Cool, i mean, its a huge step to noeing each other better... Budden I shld wash my hands out of it... Then after tt, me, jianyi n DLP took the same bus back home and he didnt even say bye bye when he got off... Haiz, so attitude.... Lol, anyway tts all for the day so I am so damn sian....

Wednesday:
Long time since I blogged. I mean, I havent been blogging since last last fridae.... Aniwaez, i try to start the evrydae blogging thing. And I will oso try to add on the previous 2-3 wks tt my lovely dovey blog-readers have missed.. Orh....
Kaiz, I woke up at 6.05 today and got ready for school. I arrived at abt 6.45. Then I saw Jiefu, zheng hang, Jeffrey n yufeng... Basically, evryone wore school uniform except yufeng, who wore a white shirt and blue jeans... Hmm... Not my idea of smart casual i guess, cos if i were to wear 'smart casual', i would wear a blue/white t-shirt and shorts, definitely not jeans cos it turns me off... Aniwaez, then he go changed so me and jeffrey started to sing 'Somewhere out there' and zheng hang practiced some humming exercises that sounded rather bad cos he had a sore throat....
Then more pple came and mi, jianyi and sua yu sang songs together as Jeffrey n Yufeng started to tok abt some medevial that yufeng influenced jeffrey to play... There is a saying called 'ai wu ji wu' wad... Oops, no offence.... Then we read our racial harmony stuff before going to the auditorium for our perf.
Once there, we meet Mrs. Giam wearing some Indian purple costume wif green scarf, silver bracelets on her hand and a dot on her face... Hahaz, she looked so funny... Btw, she said she bought evrything for Tekka Market so tts tt.... Then we went to change our kompang costume, which I had to wear an oversized, bright yellow costume which made me look like some banana-salesman trying to advertise the banana split for his company or wadeva... Totally ugly...
Then we went to the area in front of the hall and wore some sarong stuff which yet again, too big for me so i have to adjust here and there to make it tighter... Then I had to wear to songkok which then jianyi said tt i looked like a Malay and i almost fainted when i looked at the mirror... I looked so much like an idiot cos the songkok thoroughly covered my hair and my face looked so round...
Ok, anyway, we had 2 runs for the WSSS pple n other CHS boys until moments before the Guest of Honour Mr. Vivian Balakrishnan when suddenly my sarong thing just dropped and then when Tan Hui San Ms tried to tie for mi, it dropped again and Mr. Vivian arrived! Then i was like wth, why now and anyhowly retie it and continued the kompang thing.... Then after the kompang and everything, me, Jianyi n zhenghang rushed off to change for VE.
Then we went for VE and saw He Laoshi (a.k.a Ho-ho-ho!!!) anyway, he bought a fan that wrote, 'gong fu shan' which i suspect is from those stores outside chinatown MRT station that sells fake merchandise to con the tourists but anyway, his perf of taichi sure got loads of response.
Then it was our turn. We went up on the stage, adjusted the mike and sang Ondeh Ondeh n Oremi then just as we were singing, my phone was vibrating like mad so immediately after the perf i called back the person which was Sean and we talked a while b4 he passed the mike to kun won and he told mi he felt guilty at S'pore Expo cos he had to face his worst fears, the looks of the old folks... Lol...
Then we went to the pingpong tables after the whole finale and I had some rice wif chicken and stuff... Then mi and jeffrey went to buy some stationaries and i went for mrp consultation which laurang was blabbering bad things abt our paper again... Then i went for IVP and found out tt in our rubrics, all 3 judges actualli wanted us to go to the finals budden.. fate....
Haiz, so I took the 3rd lang bus and tried to memorise my poem for tml's oral and we toked and sing so more and arrived at the centre and we toked and played some more.. Btw, when we wanted to play truth or dare, i urged all around us to play then Depressed Lil Pixie suddenly erupted and then i xia dao. Then after tt, throughout the whole half n hr he became dormant n depressed and so was Big Fluffy Pink Cloud. While I was studying the others were playing scissors paper slap slap game that for some reason, aroused sadistic pixie's attention and crap.. Anywayz, i had curry cup noodles n strawberry icecream...
Then during jap class, i almost fell aslp but test is nxt wk... Gosh, we had to do the quiz and i got 10/20 and 15/20 for the quizzes and then more crap and lesson stuff so I shant explain...

Thursday: First night of Humans in celebration!
Basically, school lyk usual sucks so I shant tok abt it. We'll get to the evening as times passes by through the great sands of the Kalahari desert.
Evening time! Wow, look how time passes so quickly! Erps, ok, so we had our daily dry runs on stage first until 5.30 which was dinner time. We had some chicken and hash brown I think. Then as usual, Yong Lin had his vegetarian meal...After eating half a packet, we went for make up...
Gosh, did I just sae make up? Yesh, i was 'made' up by some teacher after putting baby lotion and foundation on, i SNooped off so no lipstick and eyepencil!!! Yarh....
So we went back to LT3, which was our waiting room and sang and played and talk. Basically, it was a good opportunity to talk cos' our play was the finale so we had to wait for 1.5hrs before we could actualli go to the Drama Centre....
Perhaps this was the moment I should start my story of the Big Pink Fluffy Cloud and Depressed Little Pixie.. But aniwaez, while love blooms for these 2 unsimilarly in sizes and personality nouns, I had a great time with all my friends, Sua Yu, Jeffrey, Jian Yi, Marcus, Yufeng....
Its like a class bonding thing cos we worked rather hard in the past week, from mondae to thursday at nite.... So I definitely hope we are much closer now than before.... I occasionally took toilet breaks with Marcus together cos we were so very excited on the first nite for the rowdy and unruly Sec 3s.
As time passes by, 2O and Eliseus's cast came back and told us that the Sec 3s laugh at every little thing in their plays... I was like wth? I mean, they can even laff at the boring history play? Budden, we toked some more until it was our turn...
We were all so very excited and went to the drama centre backstage... I was like praying that everything will work out fine and stuff... Then I gave an affirmative handshake to Jeremy and Jian Yi, pats on Kun Won and tell him that he is good for his role, cos he was so very stressed that he will screw his part up, and whisper to Taiboon that we will do well.... I was a lil doubtful but knew I had to give it all...
Finally, the spotlight was on us... All the 2mths and holiday rehearsals, the theatre sabbaticals, all our efforts were for tonite's first show... We did the 1st scene quite well, I mean, I didnt forget my lines for the chorus....
Then it was the second scene, the quarrelling scene seemed to happen so fast that in a moment, I was down on the floor as Kun Won played the 2 bar introduction. With trembling voice, I started, "One Voice, singing in the Darkness..." and circled around the spot until I continued with taiboon, "If more than one voice...." Then to the chorus, ok there wasnt much response then cos the audience actualli laffed when I started singing... Wadeva....
"All it takes is one voice, SHOUT IT OUT AND LET IT RING!!", omg, that time the sec 3s were like cheering like mad when I hit the high note... It was phenomenal, similar to the response in an American Idol show, the response was great when I sang tt, and of cos' I felt great as well.... Then when we ended the song, more applauses and cheering... It was an unforgettable feeling...
Me and Taiboon became more confident and literally became the character already, so eventually, the whole show went smoothly and nicely. Even for the Do-re-mi part and others... Even Jianyi had a 'woah' when he said his soul line, 'But... we just wanted to help..." Cool...
The dance was great, no flops, not much of a missing cue and stuff.... So in the end, we had thundering applause and cheers... Mr. Kevin Cheng said tt we had a standing ovation... Did we? Anyway, it was high... I mean everyone was very happy and stuff....
Then most people discussed abt how the sec3s cheered when I sang the high note... And Taiboon didnt get any attention... Haiz, u will see his reaction on the next post... Budden we r now, as in (18th July) still very good friends lar... So dun wry....
Then on the way to the bus stop, I felt like an infamous star or sth, either they point at me and say tt I am a g.a.y, which yours truly definitely isnt, or say tt I have a nice voice, blah blah.... And I took a bus home, toking to Edward during the journey...
Btw, I must thnk Khai Boon for smsing me encouraging messages throughout this journey and I realli do appreciate his thoughtfulness and encouragement that spurred me to do better...

Tuesdae - Basically it was an ok dae. But i did something unexpected for me on that day. Yes, I screwed up being an assembly chairman for sec 2.. Haiz, it was lyk so unprepared cos i had to schedule 20 mins b4 the real thing begins.
So i stumbled here and there, saying stupid phrases like 'please stand n pleaes sit," tongue-tied myself by saying "Please stand and let's now sing the school conduct song," and finally mispronouncing the pianist's name. Haiz....
Budden for some reason, Mr. Teo said tt i was rather gd cos I said my lines in a steady n understable pace n tone. Phew, wadeva... Budden I did it, luckily so it's over... Wait, i rmbed i had nth to say during the dialogue session wif Hon n i just became woodmade during the whole session. Gosh, i am panelist for Wk 4leh... Haiz, screw up again liaoz....
Then we had our first run in the afternoon for the IH play. AMusing cos we get to see the 'refined' works of other plays. Budden the Outstasis one is very low class liaoz. It was originally a very abstract play budden now its some time travel lame thing and the main actor made an horrible Geography mistake in one of lines, "Where am I? Oh, a coliseum! This must be Rome, Greece!" Gosh he got 1/10 for mapwork issit? Lol
And we practised our play, it was ok budden Mr. Cheng wasnt happy wif our blocking for the dance so we practiced till 8pm then went home. Then i had to do english, SLC n chinese filing by Wed so i meng... Budden at 10 sth, when I was using my recently-repaired computer, the com. just suddenly blacked out. Then the fan together wif the lights go boom. I thot my com broke the magnetic fuse then it was total darkness as the whole HDB neighbourhood was dark. The aircon stopped and i had to touch here n there to open the door n find my parents. Wonder what I will do if i was alone at home...
Hahaz, and i heard screaming from the lift. Wad a time to be trapped... Lolz, and we had candles lit up and i was singing n dancing around. My mother went to bathe in the extreme darkness cos she said she haven experienced tt before...Lol, then electricity went back in 30mins time n i resumed my work then slept at 11 sth...

Monday: We had our new timetable which was utterly boring and we were dying after 1.30. The Maths period by ChungHK however, was one of the more interesting one cos we just found out tt she pronounces 'parallelogram' as 'pararerogram'! Lolz, we were laughing at her n she was amused n in the end, she laughed at herself too... Lol... Then we had history n geog lessons, then languages which became a total bore until the 1.30 bell saved us from the miseries..
Then we had lunch and the actors for the IH play went to the Space for the dance training. This was the first time we actualli learn the dance 'Shake ur groove thing' recommended by Kevin Cheng Mr. Then we gossiped in the inner space and played truth or dare wif Taiboon, jianyi, sua yu, ting wei, marcus n me... When Sua yu dared Ting wei, he wanted ting wei to stroke his u-noe-wad to make it erect (ewww...) then ting wei refused and was shy cos there were other pple in the rm other than taiboon. I bet if it was only taiboon alone wif him, he will gladly do it... Then sua yu wanted Taiboon n Ting wei to do it together so tt both can get erect... (double eww...)and they actualli attempted to do it....
At tt time, Mr. Kevin Cheng arrived and we did the dance. So we learned for four hrs until 7 before we could go home. The dance was rather groovy n discoish and I did enjoy iy. I mean i actualli lyk the stupid racial harmony dance so this dance I of cos i loved it. It was very tiring when I went home and I fell asleep as soon I coordinated wif yonglin regarding the sounds n lighting...

Friday n Saturday n Sundae:
Friday - Basically I slacked (duh), except at nite when my parents brought me to some seafood restaurant at Ang Mo Kio to celebrate my cousin's bday. We had a FEAST, and I mean it.
We had delicacies such as butter creamy, chilli n slat n pepper crabs, and crabs bee hoon tt totally rocks.. We oso had nice nice veges n meat to go with the feastful feast. It totally rocks, i stuffed myself wif 3 'gong's n was so damn full. It was so very delicious, and ex larh.. Budden, i am not paying wad... :P Mi very selfish, yes it was a very nice nite, haven had such tasty food for a long time....
Saturdae - Outdoor band practice, kana pumped by Khai Boon (17?) cos i was late for 5mins, aiyah, I dun blame him lar, cos I deserved it mah. Then he being the Dm cannot be biased so pump lah. I am not weak u noe? Then did drills with Lawrence Siao until 12 i tink and went off for lunch and back for VE at 1.00.
I tink we sang Oremi n Elijah n Joshua without pin yan n Jian yi. And whaddid Linda Tan say? Quoted from her, "The intonation and rhythm was perfect. This is the best run we've ever had and if u sing like this for the performance, it will be great. I want all of you to remember this harmony and please press the memory button." Then she pressed her head... Dotz, lame but cool... Then I went home to do some last minute work.
Sundae, more last minute work, ERP, Science.... Then basically busy the whole dae larh... Hated the thought of going back to school....

Haven been blogging since the last last wk of holidaes....
Thurs: Trip to the Sree Narayana Mission Home for the CIP services and stuff...
The band met in the band rm at 8.30, had some briefing and stuff before taking a bus to Sree Narayana Mission home at Yishun. We arrived there at about 10 plus i tink and we settled down at the hall... By tt time, there were already a lot of old folks liaoz... Then kun won told mi tt he was afraid to look at the old folks eye to eye cos he said tt he will freak out... I dunno, I tink he is guilty or had some bad experience of sth... He was rather out-of-sorts on tt dae no doubt...
So we went to the hall, sat down and some chosen participants firstly played the jigsaw puzzle game. The rules was tt the CHS pple cannot fix the 16pcs, 4feet by 4 feet puzzle but only to assist and instruct the folks to do so... So of cos, Kian hong and Damien's gps were the last ones to finish. The reason? Kian Hong is too intelligent and his instructions were too complicated for the folks to understand such as turn this piece of puzzle 64.5 degrees CCW, then that piece, flip it vertical 78.9degrees CW... blah blah...
Whereas Damien's gp lost cos Damien might be the only one tt followed the instruction of not touching the puzzle at all, so his honesty might just made his gp lose.... Aniwaez, after tt, there was a Harmono game, some stupid game like strategy Connect 4 for Racial Harmony Day...
Then we saw Yiyi wearing a blue costume which made him look so damn cute, then Melvin wore a green one, and two other sec ones wearing red n yellow respectively... It was a knockout competition, and once again, two CHS pple r supposed to instruct the chips (real lifesize pple) to move along the grid and stuff and get as many pts as possible... This might sound confusing cos it is totally lame lorh...
Aniwaez, in the end Terence and Junjie went into the finals, and will be competiting with each other in the Singapore Expo at 21st July. Then we had our lunch (chicken rice) and gave chilli and drinks to the old folks, very touching and fun...
After tt, we danced the stupid Racial Harmony dance again and went back to band rm, jie san and went home at abt 4am....
