be yourself day 2009

I just completed the choir camp itinerary 2nd edition. Phew. At least in the midst of slacking I manage to get some work done. :S Because apart from those compulsory chinese study sessions, I haven't been focusing on Chinese at all. Come home then play and slack and occasionally catch drama serials with my sister. Even when my mum and mdm chan are saying the same things.

Chinese 'O' levels. I may be the first ever person to screw up the oral so badly, you could cringe at my pronunciation of it. ): And I'm afraid not getting a distinction for oral will mean that i confirm cannot get A1 for the whole thing.

That's why I waited for 15 mins after class today, but to no avail. Oh well, I'll still try hard. Just not at this very moment and the past three days. And will not be taking part in the movie marathon. It'll be suicidal to my chinese studying plans.

If there are any. :X

But express chinese has been alright. And for the first time in my secondary school life, I'm getting A for compo, letter writing and even paper 2! (: That was my results for prelims anyway. Talk about that glimmer of hope. LOL.

Report book back tomorrow. That's for tomorrow's post. For now, it's about arts fest and be yourself day!

Wore this outstanding sesame street tie which made many heads spin and turn and smile. And even strangers commented on the tie. Haha, talk about an attention seeking tie. Chinese lessons - Restless. Couldn't help but look out of the window every 5 minutes and thinking about the 珊瑚海 duet I sang with beiying. Haha! Did that out of impulse and didn't really care about what others thought.

And in that moment, I thought I embodied the spirit of Carpe Diem.

Seize the Day.

Supported Don't Forget the Lyrics organised by sec 2s! Hehe. Then even called me upstage with jess to give out prize and sing. LOL, made me feel like some VIP. :p

We are drifting apart. Or maybe it's over-sensitivity on my part. But you can't hide the fact that when we meet, you guys are talking about things I have no clue about and have no wish to tell me about. And then it becomes 3+1 instead of 4 or even 5. And in the case of 5, it becomes a 3+2. I'm not doing math here but anyone can do the counting. Will there be a tectonic shift in the times to come? Not sure.

But if there's anyone to blame for this, it should be me and that's why I should probably stop ranting here. Because this weren't your fault, it's mine.

楓

It's supposed to be autmn in the the northern hemisphere now. Hence,

楓.

It means maple leaves. And it happens to be an awesome song from Jay Chou. KBOX on monday has given me a new passion, pursuing good chinese songs.

Timely isn't it? Hope that can supplement my 3 hour chinese revision today. It's little but at least there's something. And it's only 16 more days to 10 Nov!

Grrr. But there's 3/1 chalet and hongkong a few days after 10 Nov. Looking forward. (:

I've been 'introverted' recently. To the point where my image of a quiet and reclusive guy has taken one step further to include being socially withdrawn. Yeah, people are starting to think that I'm suffering from some form of depression. I don't think that's the case but then again, one can never be too sure so I won't rule out that possibility.

Then again, they have a basis for their assumption. I was, according to gladwin, obsessed with 命中注定我愛你 and that happened to be the only topic of conversation so people start to shun me. Even now, the topic of conversation happens to be this. No wonder you guys don't tag.

There's really a rationale behind it after all.

And if this was considered introvert,Then I have no idea what's going to happen to me once I start reading Hilary Mantel's An experiment of love and Learning to walk as well as Simon Mawner's The Fall. Not to mention rejecting almost every single invitation of going out because I happen to want to stay at home everytime people invite me for an outing or so. Especially when it comes to buying new clothes for Be Yourself Day.

Fact remains that I'm not rich (at least for now) and not fashion savvy. And according to even more people, too socially and emotionally withdrawn to buy clothes.

._.

Stick with the facts. At least by not having any plans to go out and buy new clothes for Be Yourself Day (currently at 2340, 24/10/09, +8 GMT) , I'm practising what I preach by saving up money for the Italy trip.

Another fact remains: I still want to buy a hat.

por una cabeza

Por Una Cabeza is my favourite classical piece to date. Especially when it's instrumental.
And the Seal Lullaby happens to be my favorite choral piece. Really hope to be able to sing that one day. The one by eric whitacre.

I sound so sophisticated when I'm not. Especially when you know that yours truly didn't use facebook for six days so that I can finish up the 24-episode 命中注定我愛你.

Because once term starts, I won't have anymore time to indulge in such delicious drama. No doubt an idol drama but the best I've ever watched so far. Well, it happened to be my first.

To be exact, school started today and we went to LTA. Lol. Perhaps it was one of the last school trips in anderson that i'll ever be going. And one that sounded like an excerpt from the social studies textbook when it comes to managing traffic flow. No, I think it sounds more class.

It's time to face the music.

After only a break of 6 days.

Just some things I've went for to occupy time.

PS: Por Una Cabeza is the song played when the two lead chacters in 命中注定我愛你 were dancing a tango.

LOL.

worried about chinese. :X

I'm in a state of extreme anxiety and panic. All from worrying about failing chinese.

Because it has become very possible. After 离题ing for my compo and screwing up paper 2 altogether. One word:

SCREWED.

I don't want to drop higher chinese! Not after slogging for three years for it. Not when my minus two points is barely a year away. Not now when I'm finally determined to do well.

But the other subjects were ok so far.

Chinese, you make me worry too much.
