Wednesday, May 25, 2005 vjc had half-day today to go down to the national stadium to watch the soccer finals. so school ended at 10.30. so i had time to go home for lunch + nap. (: met yueting + erjian at the tjc bustop at 2pm for sammy's sc investiture. he made us go in street clothes but we felt so incredibly out of place! haha way too young to be sammy's parents. :D the investiture was alright i guess. i thought the entrance of the councillors-to-be was super cool, with light sticks and everything. and the bond girls song they chose was incredibly nice! sammy kept laughing on stage.. no thanks to yueting and me i guess. we couldn't stop laughing at everything he did. i met elke + kangya there too! elke used to be my classmate from primary one to four.. she looks so pretty now. i didn't recognise her until i heard her name being called when they were giving out the council badges.. haha thought i'd die of a heart attack. kangya was rjc's representative. (: went down to the national stadium after that.. saw yanqi + atiqah + kenneth + chel + shuzhen + justin from mjc!! and fiona came back! yay. heh was really happy to see them again! especially yanqi.. i spent all my time at the national stadium with her. this is the third time i met her in two weeks! yep so we were really happy. i sat with her at the mj section for a while, then she came to the vj section. think the view from the vjc section is better. ok fine so i'm biased. :D i helped her leave early since it's compulsory for the mj j1s to attend match support and it'd be too obvious if she walked out of the front gate with her schoolbag. haha i was slightly worried that i'd get a scolding from an mj teacher for kidnapping her though. my dad brought us to macs for a drink. (: then her friend called her later when we were in the car to scream that mj won. oh man i was like so devastated.. i was really shocked, then i felt really bad. for the principals, pe teachers, soccer boys, spectators.. yeah we see them train so hard every day after school, and all those sports injuries.. and it seems like everything wasn't worth it. i got the details from jeremy chia later on about the overtime and penalty shoot-out and sudden death and all that. oh man. it was really such a waste. i guess what makes it even worse was that vjc could have scored on a few occasions, but they couldn't penetrate mjc's defence. but we were so so close to scoring quite a number of times. oh man we were so close. i wonder if we'll still get half-day tmr? ok but that's not all that i'm worried about. :S strings exco results out! but calvin said he can't tell me. ok fine another day of suspense for the six of us. ): Monday, May 23, 2005 how did i let myself get so out of shape? i can't climb up four storeys to my violin teacher's apartment without feeling physical exertion. my standing broad jump's only 180 cm now. my sit and reach is quite a joke. and i used to get an a for it. with ease. i didn't dare try out shuttle run.. it looked painful. i'm losing muscle. well that's kinda understandable i guess. i haven't taken pe in close to three months. walked from my estate to the hdb blocks in bedok south then back again today. my ankle was squealing in discomfort. hm think i'll do that more often since i don't have physiotherapy anymore. (: had paddle pop solero shots too. well it was on the way. :D i wonder when i can start jogging my 2km route again? hope i'd be able to by the middle of june. i hope i can get a silver for my physical fitness test in july! i don't wanna fail it and go for third block pe. but looking at my fitness level now, maybe that'd be good for me. Sunday, May 22, 2005 woo. i'm officially 17. not like that's a big deal. i guess 16 is. sweet 16, right? and 18's the legal age for most stuff. but 17's just caught in the middle. but it was still a blast. had loads of fun during break fooling around taking the weirdest pictures with yuewoon and waiyen and claire and jiaying. heh. we finally have photos with the second intakers! yay! i got let off at 12.10.. went for lunch at 7-11 with lyndsey and kelvin and liling. i tried out some microwaved noodle thing that everyone said looked gross. but it was pretty good actually. hm. it was quite fun sitting outside 7-11. beats the vjc canteen anytime. heh the neptune court security guard came over and asked us why victorians were always hanging out at 7-11. apparently he thinks the vjc canteen food is unedible. haha. oh yeah thanks for the soya milk laura! rehearsal for infusia was incredibly boring. really. we were all sitting around staring at each other. i missed out on miss chen and mr goh's farewell party! darn! but i couldn't leave because we had to practise moving the chairs around. ugh. and all the teachers-in-charge and chairmen were kinda stressed so i didn't wanna ask for trouble. ): clara managed to sneak out though. boo. dinner was plain gross. lyndsey and i masked the taste of the food with lots of chilli sauce from the western stall. heh cool birthday dinner. the concert was quite a success really. the response was really overwelming. it was a full house too! woo. they had to turn away a few people because there weren't any tickets left. haha. and the coolest thing happened. my e string snapped in the middle of the concerto grosso. i had checked that it was in tune before we went onstage. then somewhere in between lt5 and the stage, the string went flat. by a lot. even though the string was quite tight. guess it was a little damaged already. anwyay during the section leaders' solo, i turned the peg the way i've turned it a million times before. but this time the string snapped. ARGH! major panic man. may day may day. everyone told me i had the coolest facial expressions. and the 'piang' sound of my e string snapping was audible even from the upper gallery. and it drew a collective gasp of horror from most in the audience. woah. i had to spend the rest of the concerto grosso in like 3rd and 4th position in order to play the notes that i usually play on the e string. sheesh. but i was incredibly miserable after that. i swapped violins with kelvin (thank you!!) so i could play the combined orchestra pieces. but the finale rocked. heh the audience really liked it. woo. well overall it wasn't a bad way to spend a birthday (minus the string-snapping part). thank you 05s16 for the huge pink piglet cushion! it's so bimbo but i love it so much! heh. thanks to everyone for the flowers and presents and for being there at my concert. i love you guys.! and it was good to see yanqi and ruowei and dawn and iris and hoying and dennis and sammy again! yay. then i had lunch today with my mum and auntie yvonne and her niece. but auntie yvonne's son jared wasn't there because he was having school stuff. ): man i kinda miss him and our crazy physics tuition sessions. and the balmoral plaza chicken rice and how we always went mad at 7-11 buying millions of bottles of picked waterapple. heh. but lunch was really good. (: and my new anna sui fragrance rocks my socks! i love it so so so much. thank you!! yep well i'll always remember my 17th birthday. woo. "how could this happen to me? i made my mistakes i've got nowhere to run. the night goes on as I’m fading away. i’m sick of this life. i just wanna scream. how could this happen to me?" -untitled, simple plan. super nice song! Thursday, May 19, 2005 busy. ): but i'd be free after tomorrow's strings concert! maybe too free. :S i'd be 17 tomorrow! but it doesn't feel like a big thing anymore. probably i was doing gp the whole night. heh. i really hope infusia goes well tomorrow. i wouldn't wanna disappoint the crowd yeah. guess the least that we can do is to ensure that we don't mess up the strings pieces. and i hope there wouldn't be a mistake with the seating arrangements! we always seem to have a shortage of stands and chairs. heh. i wonder if we're still having strings supper after infusia? the teacher said something about that quite a long time ago. but she's so busy and stressed. i wonder if she'll forget? whee i get to miss two blocks of chemistry tutorial! :D cheap thrill. pw's going ok. not marvellously exceptionally phwoar! fantastic, but still reasonably ok. just realised how tight the schedules are. no wonder all the year 2s were complaining about it. think i'd go to bed.. so super exhausted. i'll do longer posts after tomorrow! (: "and it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time. i want what's yours and i want what's mine. i want you.. but i'm not giving in this time." michelle branch- goodbye to you. super nice sad song!! (: Wednesday, May 18, 2005 ct invest today. really cool. i have my gold nametag now. woo. kiss my patched-up-with-scotchtape plastic tag goodbye. (: but all the councillors went out after that cuz we were given a full day off. and i couldn't go because i had chemistry spa. and strings too! darn. so uunfaaair. ): but oh well life's like this. strings rehearsal wasn't half bad. the 3 combined orchestra pieces sound really good. especially sabre dance! it just occured to me that infusia is mainly chinese orchestra's concert. why?.. most of the stage time is given to chinese orchestra. shucks. and i thought it was supposed to be a combined concert. like 50-50. hm. ): but it's ok. chinese orch sounds pretty good. the suonas are kinda loud. not getting used to it though heh. think i'll go to bed now. strings is sapping up all my energy. haven't got started on my gp essay. uh-oh. guess i'll submit it on friday? get to leave early then for strings practice! woo. -"now can i get an encore. do you want more? cookin raw with the brooklyn boy. so for one last time i need y'all to roar. now what the hell are you waiting for? after me, there shall be no more. so for one last time, make some noise!" -jay-z and linkin park, numb encore. lyndsey and i were all for playing it for the encore of infusia. heh. but i bet the teacher-in-charge'd never approve! :P Wednesday, May 11, 2005 updating my blog in the computer lab.. supposed to be doing banner painting but there aren't any paints. hm. so i'm waiting for the guitar concert ushering briefing. (: yipee. locker adhoc busted our first lockers today. whee. it was really hard work though. bet aaron would disagree. :D today's the last day of physiotherapy. (: alright! heh. it's quite a relief not to go anymore i guess.. the therapist keeps bring up the issue of operation but i'm kind of scared so i don't think i'll go. and the only time i do physical stuff is during pe lessons. sheesh. so there isn't really much point. project work's going alright.. junkiat's our group leader. heh. we keep changing ideas so i don't know what's gonna happen. ouch. think i'll go now.. so sleepy. maybe i'll go to the library to sleep.. i hope i'd wake up in time for the briefing. >.< Thursday, May 05, 2005 still traumatised. i hyperventilated in math tutorial class. it was just kinda sudden. i was copying down the stuff the tutor wrote down on the whiteboard when i had this strange sensation in my chest and my heart was racing like mad. so i told jiayi that it feels like i'm having a panic attack. and i said it really happily too. then i realised i wasn't writing properly anymore. my heart was pounding, my chest hurt like mad and i couldn't control my breathing consciously. jiaying tried to help me to slow down my breathing but it was just so hard. i was really really terrified too so i guess that didn't help much. i can't really remember what happened but after a while my breathing went back to normal. but my hands and legs were numb and i couldn't move and everyone said my hands were cold. ouchies. went to the canteen for a while.. wanted to get something to eat but mathew had my wallet. haha. went for physics lecture like 10 minutes late. brilliant walking pace. then i got it again in physics lecture. my chest hurt and i was breathing too fast again. i got out of the lecture theatre with yuewoon and jiaying and vithiya and sherli fast.. i wasn't sure when steph joined us. i wasn't really very conscious i think. i was breathing too much in math tutorial but i didn't feel like breathing the second time around.. i felt comfortable not breathing so i kept it that way. my limbs were really numb again. i think i kind of zoned out a little because i didn't know what everyone was saying to me.. just stuff like if i wanted hot milo and whether i wanted to lie down. i think. my vision was really weird. the colours seemed kind of strange. like a television set gone wrong. i remember a tsd girl giving me water. she got a pe teacher to come. then he got me a wheelchair and i got to the sick bay. felt kinda better there. i got the feeling back in my arms and legs. they called an ambulance which brought me to changi general hospital. sheesh that's practically like my second home now. the paramedic was really nice though. so was my doctor. ivan. he told me he was from vjc too. woo. the hospital kept me there for observation so i got home quite late. i slept in hospital, and again when i got home. but i still feel kind of tired. and weak. and still really scared. oh man. the doctor said the attack might be due to stress and anxiety, physical exertion, psychological problems or something in my subconscious that has been bugging me for weeks, that my body has to vent out. cool way of venting your problems if you ask me. sheesh it's obviously none of the above so i'm dying to find out what really caused it. guess i'd never find out cuz the doc said that nobody really knows about these kinda things. boo. at least i get to miss bio lec test tomorrow. i got yuewoon and sherli and mathew and junkiat in my pw group. joy and jubilations. i'm really happy about it. (: that's like the best group anyone can give to me. thank you so much 05s16! you guys are the best man.. i dunno what i'd have done without you guys. (: still feeling quite scared so i guess i'll go to bed now.. gotta miss strings tmr. ): Sunday, May 01, 2005 first day of may. calls for an update. sports day on friday. oh man it rocks so much. ursa's the champion house! not like i ever doubted our abilities. (: i was timekeeper for all the runners who came in 2nd.. timekeeping's stressful. it'd look really weird if my stopwatch showed a faster time than shuqi and weiyi, who were the 1st timers, or slower than joel tang, who was the 3rd timer. i think joel adjusted his time for quite a few events cuz he had a slower time than edwin. heh. at least timekeeping let me practise for physics prac. haha. did mass dance after the sports day. i love vjc mass dances so much! woo. but i'm still quite blur about la bamba and tribal dance. boo. claire was my dance partner for friendship dance! haha it was quite fun. (: but i got sunburnt. ouch. oh yeah and how can i forget about syf? hm. got a silver. i was so so disappointed.. it wasn't like i was totally expecting a gold.. i knew that a silver was possible seeing that we were a really small ensemble. but it was just that feeling about how your hard work went all to waste. and how you can't collect your harvest due to bad weather conditions that you can't control. cuz we did well on stage and we peaked at exactly the right moment. and of course there was that feeling about letting vjc down. and how we really wanted to do well to give her a name but we failed to. but i'm so proud seeing how far we've come and bonded together during the practices. and i know our concert will be better. (: go vjse. sc investiture on tuesday. ctc must not muck up. or sc will muck up our investiture. haha. can't wait for ct investiture on the 18th of may. woo. then we can finally enter the ctc room without permission! heh. there's this really cool mini hi-fi in there. haha i'll go in and blast linkin park every morning. went for a wedding yesterday.. my neighbour's wedding. sat at a table with all the other neighbours. i sat next to melissa, the sec 3 ngee ann girl living down the road.. i think she's really pretty. i see her a lot but yesterday was the first time i talked to her. she's really cute and funny. heh. she knows who mark and mathew are. wow they are famous. (: the food wasn't bad. and they gave out mini teddybears that were so cute! heh. the groom jonathon always writes songs for his wife brenda, and he sang one of his compositions at the wedding. man it was so gorgeous and the piano accompaniment was so well-played. i know it sounds really cheesy but you can practically hear how much he cares for her. it was just really sweet. (: looked for new shoes today but none caught my eye.. i need new sandals too. never mind i'll go to a bigger sports shop another day. yep holiday tomorrow! alright. sleep sleep sleep. (: | |
