did the twenty i was aiming for...but i realised i was doing "full hand" all along...which means pressing of all ur five fingers on the bar...instead of the supposed four fingers, with your thumb under the bar, or around it. which i believe should be harder then the "full hand" one...but surely a whole lot more painful...ouch. this is depressing.
haha...today pe damn fun...it was raining...then everyone wanted to spike their hair...then when teacher come everyone flatten...so fun.
Well, perhaps what i typed about is something to make myself happier about not getting gold with honours...hmm...
i believe we will be having a concert at the end of this year...if the teachers allow. Will be fun...all the sec2s will be so pro by then...and the sec4s should have finished their exams...

I miss co a whole lots. I miss the feeling of practising for syf. I miss the pressure. Now its all over. And practise will only resume after exams. Around a month? Sigh. See if I can get the hang of circular breathing by then...

Yesterday was sports day at vjc, and I was in charge of marking attendence for some reason...i believe i did a good job. haha. halfway the drama people announced that they got a gold award for the syf...which completely malu us...most because it was their first time...
today the co did CIP...with perhaps a hundred other people from other schools and also vs. I was idiotic enough to spend half my time walking around doing almost nothing...but after that i stopped at bedok town center and got quite a small load...haha. but very tired after that...never eat lunch go to sleep already...
"I tried to tell you, but you were not there anymore."

It is all like a dream. In and out, it doesnt take more then fifteen minutes, but the preparation of it all took many months...When we entered the room, i was very shaking abit...even though i dun feel nervous at all, my body was like shivering. When the results came out, it was a Gold, mixed feeling for me, perhaps for all the schools which got gold. a feeling of joy for getting the gold, but also one of sadness for not clinching the honours. I believe that even though we only got a Gold, the honour was shown very clearly throughout.
Haha, im just hoping the band doesnt start suaning us...-.-

it all comes down to this, when many days ago we were counting the number of days till syf, which was 80 days away. and now? 16 hours perhaps. If we do not do our best then, i dare say the many months spent practising will all come to vain. but no matter what we get, ill still be proud to be from vsco.
anyway thanks to reuel and his many colourful "things", our class noticeboard looks nicer now!

full day today, but almost the whole day at school, starting from 8 to 12+, then 2+ to 7pm. During the second practice, which was at 2pm+, i was thinking it would be dazu again, and was quite bored. but it ended up as sectionals, but for the dizi people, we slacked throughout, polishing our dizi. well, of course not the entire thing, just the small metal part. It made my D diao dizi see the light again after 2 years. so shiny now...brasso rocks!

im falling sick, once again. fortunately we are having a full day off tomorrow...but for us, it means a full day of practice. today we had dazu the entire time, then its like at first i cant hardly blow with my horrid flu, but after that i managed. im just hoping it will recover after a while.

Today had cross-country...as i was acting as a road marshal, i left early...skipping the whole of the dreading three periods of biology. which i will be doing again next week when i have syf.
It took longer then i expected to get to Turf city...nearly two hours. When we get there, we were quickly hurried to change and set off to our duty areas. We were suppose to instruct any victorians that came along to the correct route. I got an bus stop that was earlier then the correct getting off point, so in the end, i found out that i would see almost no one, just to make sure that if anyone got off early, they would know where to head to. well, so as expected, i saw no one :(
when to help with the cheering after that. the ending was quite fun, and i believe we got the gold for both C and D divisions...haha

as 20th april approaches, i start dreading that day. but since it will come sooner or later, we will stand together and do our best on that day. No matter what we get, i will wear my badge proudly.
after today will be seven days left...practising everyday already. I must really change my attitude a bit. Even my juniors that are fairly slack are showing how willing they are to strive. i cant lose to them.

just heard our school band got gold...sigh...got so much pressure!
today i took oral for both english and chinese one after the other...i believe i did quite well for my english, my teacher said that my conversation and picture description is good but my reading still need more practice. lol. i was thinking my reading was good, but the others suxs. but i totally screwed my chinese one up...because of no constant practice? die die die die :(

Today is the day when our vice-principal officially leaves the school for a principal course...which more or less wasted around one hour of our time...well, at least it allowed us to skip mother tongue lesson today, which means allowing the chinese test to be postponed...haha.
after that was bio practical...first time see anything so..."ewww." Our bio teacher was like cutting the sheep heart up like it is something did everyday...yucks.
Im really in a very bad mood today, was like damn f***ked up and did not cared about anything already...theres is like a great pressure in your head and you cant think of anything clearly without getting frustrated. perhaps it is because of my lost wallet...shouted at yingkai the first time today...in fact, the first time for any senior...well...at least i apologised...give me credit for that. :/

sigh...i lost my wallet...very depressing...:(
to the bright side, ive finally more or less "mastered" my hou ban pai...well, not really master...far from it...but better already. ahh..thats nice.

ah...my tagboard sleeping again...sigh
just heard that Indian Dance got gold...plus Choir with their Gold with Honours. Then Im sure our Concert Band cant be that bad, more or less Gold or GWH one lor...so a lot of pressure on our side...15 more days, everyone work hard.
there is a projector in the classroom, on the ceiling, which sometimes needs to be pressed manually. which means a person have to step on the table, or perhaps the chair to be able to press the button...that was what i did last year when i was sitting right under the projector...now there is a media resource rep., and being considerably lazy and very innovative, he takes the broomstick and pokes the button. ehh...well, no one really cared about him doing that until our new english commented harshly on that. quite comical a sight, seriously.
got back my solubility test (2) today, 18/20...thought would be 19, just too careless...but then our chem teacher said that got people fail again, so we will be having test (3). -.-
got back the acid, bases and salts test today...the very chapter that most of the class did not really understand...our teacher started giving out from the lowest marks to the highest, and there was quite a handful who failed. when the first passed paper was given back, everyone who hadnt got their papers yet breathed a sigh of relief. then as it goes on, people started the "dont say my name" chant...lol...in the end i was the last few to get back my paper...really quite happy.

got a haircut...was far too long...now its far too short, but never mind...i guess i like it quite a lot.
just heard vs choir got gold with honours...always so pro...a lot of pressure... :(
Saturday, April 02, 2005
got mini full dress rehearsal...go there all wear until nice nice...reach there then realised i forgot to bring tie -.- but nvm lah...no one cared. got a new conductor...just helping for today...because our conductor mr goh is overseas? but its good lah, cause he pointed out stuff that mr goh never said about before...i think that today everyone was very good.
then after that more or less had sectionals...but as we did not have the classroom keys, clayton just ask us to practice outside...which should never be done...100% will have the residents complain...then i asked everyone to stop playing...but they more or less dun care...so very soon...a teacher came up to complain. then teerapong was like damn pissed at the teacher...he asked everyone to start playing a song, as loud as possible. watever lah...in the end...i was like shouting at the guan yue to stop playing...and at the same time mr lee came up and give us the classroom keys...
sigh...stupid residents.

today is april fools day :) and i didnt realise it until this morning when i got to my classroom...luckily i was early and the class hadnt thought of any pranks to play yet...
soon after that, the class clock was turned to 20 mins later. Then my classmates who came a bit later was asked why they came so late...but after that we found out it was useless as most of them had watches...so we started "today had physics test" thingy...lame sia...
after that my monitor told my form teacher that mr lee had chosen him for the teachers race..lol...too bad my form teacher didnt give a damn about it...must be knowing that something like that will happen...
hahaha...i put up the class photos on the back already...quite nice lah...and to jarren if he ever reads this...it did not drop...
