So, the promotional exams and PW assessment is over, and it feels like just yesterday i finished my Os. I guess definitely i would not have expected a lot things which have happened to me for the past one year, but i guess i am just really fortunate. Made tons of good friends, and i have personally seen a lot of people that i have known for the past few years going through new experiences and all too. I have finally realized the importance of contentment in one's mind, and how it would affect one's moods. Basically though i have studied much harder than i did for Os already, i guess i need to mug even longer hours and intensify my mugging periods. Band seems to be getting boring though, which is a downside.

And it really really really really sucks that there is no freaking band tour. I am personally pissed with my stupid fate that the only band tour so far i have been was only to Malaysia. As in, i have seen photos and heard experiences of my seniors going to countries such as Perth and the US in their band tours, and i would like to be able to experience them too. Stupid pork flu. Haha enough of rambling though. This blog is pretty much dead which would probably be a good thing. I should not be too addicted to the computer already.

I need to know that i have not changed negatively as a person since stepping over to SAJC. It would really be sad if i did!

Haha i know it really sucks to say this but:


The subject i want to get A the

most is HISTORY.

:D

I know i am not supposed to do this but i would really like to say thanks for those who wished/did something for me for this Birthday! Really appreciated it. The surprises, barbecue, failed tau poks, etc. Haha! They were definitely fun.

But back to studies. MSAs/PROMOS really soon. But i am really excited for the Brisbane trip! Haha.

Life's good. :D

Planning not to blog for a long time. Haha. Cya soon people.

Current Mood: uncomfortable

May i just say again, that i simply HATE people who criticises me behind my back.
Just have some guts and just say it to my face.


It's not about me changing. It's about others having expectations that may not be always met.
Pretty pissed off with the AAs, and the obsessive ones. I really don't want to.



 

Woahh i am actually pretty impressed with SAJC's capacity of cheering with the past 2 games i have went to, girls' soccer and netball! Though we did lose in Netball against HCI i really think we won them in terms of school spirit because we actually bothered to have people cheer for them and the fact we still did it so enthusiastically even though we were losing! Haha! Hopefully EVERYONE cheers in the future though. Because i know not everyone cheered still. D:

But still, go SA! Haha. :D

I HAVE TO START WORKING MY ASS OFF.

Current Mood: peaceful

So a lot of things have happened recently, from the PREPARATION to SYF, SYF itself, post SYF, and other random/crazy things which have been going on. Haha.

9th May:
I actually cycled for 28+ KM today! It is a feat considering the fact that i have never cycled for like more than 10minutes ever, and that i have only cycled in school before this. Haha! Though i feel down and hurt myself, i still feel really accomplished! Fun day fun day. :D Though i did feel guilty over something else..

Preparation for SYF:
Ahh! The practices leading up to the SYF was good i guess! I really liked certain points when we played the exciting parts, and some points where i could really feel the slow movements and all. Tuba sectionals were fun and productive too! As in i believe we did strike a balance between really having fun and practicing really seriously during sectionals. Happy times. Haha.

SYF:
WELL, i know most of us would be disappointed with the results (Me included), but i know that WE DID REALLY PLAY THE BEST PERFORMANCE WE COULD GIVE ON THAT STAGE AND THE FEELING WAS REALLY GREAT.  I guess i was just upset because it was a repeat of the 07's SYF. Sighh. But anyway, we should still remember to thank all those who have helped us such as the alumni members ( Just to name a few, Mr Yeo, Mr Sim, Reagan, Benny, Jian Hui, Benedict, Kenneth, Ben Thia, Xavier, AND THE LIST GOES ON), Mr Heng and of course Mr Glosz! He was the one who motivated us to really really perform for the music instead of just playing for the freaking medal.

Post SYF:
Well first thing was that i knew there would be people questioning the band's standard without actually listening to us play. (Students, teachers ALIKE). Which would certainly piss all of us of, but the thing is, why bother what they say when they do not understand the point of performing in SYF in the first place? If they were so great, why didn't they do any f*cking thing themselves?
And personally i think that it is okay that NYJC got a Gold, as in, they weren't THAT bad. We also cannot count out the possiblilty that they did play with emotion! Though if they did cut players 1 week before the SYF it does seem a bit superficial.. Though people might say that in the future we would be seen as of equal standard, as long as we ourselves know what emotions we have poured in the music, i really believe that ultimately, the medal does not count, ever.

Anyway with all the debate that AJC did not deserve a Gold With Honours while SA and VJC did,  i guess it's just all about the Judges' perspective, which can be sub divided into other factors such as personal preference, acoustics of the hall, higher expectations, etc etc. I don't see the point of criticising AJC right now. Firstly, i believe there are actually people inside the band who do want to play for the PERFORMANCE regardless, the flute solo was good! But there doesnt seem to be any connection with the first part of the Euphonium solo though, though the second part was pretty good. But i did believe that if AJC got a GWH, i  TJC should have definitely deserved at least a Gold. Though i didnt listen to them i definitely believed that TJC played well from what i have heard from other people, it may not be credible, but still.

SAJCCB still rocks man. :D
And its time for the j1 batch of 2009 to shine! Hahaa.

Edit : OMG I FORGOT TO THANK ALL THE J2s TOO! Thanks for EVERYTHING! :D
          And Eric, come back and visit okay! Haha.

I am starting to be like someone i told myself never to follow. Sighh.

Anyway i know i haven't blogged for a long time already! Busy busy. Maybe another time perhaps!

Current Mood: guilty

I guess my current life isn't going on as bad as it seems after all.

It's all about one's perspective.

Everything sucks to the max you know.

The aura of negativeness is just so freaking unbearable.
