ali baba & smell of rain
its actually last week stuff la. the ali baba qing gong yan. the dress code was smart casual. so yep, we didnt wear the normal boardshorts and tee that we usually do. reached there watched some videos, and took lotsa photos!! and its really a lot! haha. its so fun la. i love cutting into other's photos. =)) heehee. anyway, we had food and lotsa fun!! it actually ended quite early leh, so we hanged ard a lil while more and poof! all of them went town and i went dhoby ghaut to look for yuklum they all.

reached the pool place at paaradiz centre. yuk, hanquan, malcolm and tze chong were there. and we played pool! i lost to yuklum!! haha.. but that's not the point. the games were long and draggy. and finally, mark came and we packed up and went to the cathay, where smell of rain will be screened. we watched the 12.20am show. but at 11+ everyone was kinda slpy and tired already lo. haha. we still went anyway, since we booked tickets.

i think the movie's nice leh! at least the storyline is nice. i like the twist behind. and i like how the director tries to show the movie in a quiet and slow pace, showing the characteristic of the male lead. and there's a reason why the movie is narrative. just that it can get quite slow sometimes that lotsa ppl fell aslp. haha. but i really like the twist! so cool! but some part of the movie needs improvement la, like the female lead's dad looks like her boyfriend. haha. quite ridiculous. and according to chee guan (who watched on the same day as us, but not sitting together), there's still lotsa room for improvement. oh ya! one thing abt the movie, there's quite little implication of the smell of rain leh. just mentioned a lil abt it in the movie. however in the trailer, it seems like a very impt part of the movie. but i still quite like the movie.

tze chong is very funny. he's the only one stayed awake throughout the whole movie, other than me. yet he didnt understand the ending!! haha.

the movie ended at ard 2+am. and we went to get the night rider to my place. despite the fact that NR6 passed by tze chong and hanquan's house, i made them all go to mine! haha. bleahx. eventhough i think my place is the most messy. but ya. we had super late supper at macs, rivervale plaza at 3+. then we went to my place. and they stayed there till ard 6 and all of them went home. then i slept from 6+ to 11.

then on sunday night, went to nus macs to meet my trekking friends to watch zaid's jazz band concert at ucc. the concert was quite nice. but sometimes it can get quite boring and i almost fell aslp.. haha.

reached home quite late and the following week i was quite erm, tired. always feel like slping. haha.

anyway, choir got a lot better lately, mainly coz of kwei's threat of dropping us. improved a lot! woohoo! but i feel, we are not ready for performance, what more competition? so im still quite or in fact, very worried for us.

oh oh, it's I&E day today! its some dumb day for innovation and enterprise. haha. ok la, its not totally dumb la. in fact it is quite interesting. esp the video about maths. i think its sooo interesting! the fibonacci sequence and the golden ratio, 1:1.618. its so cool la! actually, the golden ratio, i tried before, after i read da vinci code and its true la. but i didnt noe that the fibonacci sequence is so interesting. oooh. after that, me and some class girls went to phy and chem labs. chem's more fun. we painted eggs! haha. so fun, dying the eggs and painting them after that. mine was a failed piece of art. i washed the egg after painting wrongly and the dye came off too. so i just painted red over it and tried to paint spiderman. but its a flop la! coz it didnt look like a spiderman, partly coz i didnt have a reference like the previous spidey i did back in cedar. saw tze chong on the way to canteen, and i gave the egg to him, since its his bday today. hahaha. oops.

met yuk, hq, lianghao and shaun in the canteen and i joined them for the rest of the day. its so fun, idling ard, going to more interesting booths, rather than following our itinerary. went to the tldds booth and did hanna! so cool. got kalpana to write jay on my hand. then went to block 1 to play cold war risk: US vs USSR. i think its so fun okay. other than the fact that we all got quite bored coz risk is always a very long game. but ya, refreshed my memory of cold war a lil. i like that station. maybe i shouldnt have gone to science stream. but then again, maybe i would wanna go sci if im still in arts.

after slacking ard in lt4, we went canteen, coz i wanted to eat and we sang gaude and justorum and many other songs. not really whole song but ya, just sing and sing and talk and crap and stone. haha. we sang bday song to tze chong twice! although there's not cake. haha. but its fun to sing it. slacked till 2 and went for debrief. then went for choir. quite slack, coz j1s had 1 by 1, but we're just outside choir room teaching the other j1s. i feel quite accomplished though. heh. but i think there's still room for improvement. in fact, lotsa room for improvement. hmmmm.

after sectionals, it started raining damn heavily la! and we hurried to the train station but still got quite drenched. nuan, yuk and hannah went to look for costume for concert. but i decided to go home, since im quite tired today. i was sleeping on the bus la. really slping, until someone knock into my arm. so irritating la. walau. quite painful.

heh, this entry quite long eh. covered so many things. over ard like 10 days? haha. so long nv update already. okay la, shall sign off here. there's choir tml morning till 3+pm. zzz. more singing! but im quite tired leh. think i sing too much. okay la, really signing off le. tatax~

drifting
mmmm, i realise, im slowly isolating myself in class. or rather among the girls. hmmmm. i feel happier in choir =), despite some little conflicts here and there. maybe coz im spending more time and effort in choir rather than in class ba. i just cant gel with everyone of them, even after one year. i think the only girls i can talk to abt my feelings are shan jing and jas liao.

but anyway, i was talking to shan jing abt my back problem. and i realised i haven been visiting the doc for almost 2 months now. and that's very bad, considering that i am supposed to go like once a week. but i was very busy la. though that's not a very good excuse. im also trying to save up for my parents. i feel really guilty to be always spending their money and not contributing. my heart aches to see my dad work so hard to provide for the family. sigh.

anyway, was supposed to do cwo today, coz i was late last term. but apparently nelson sim couldnt find the tchr ic, and he's trying to make me go and do on thurs, which is choir day. im so not going to report to him on thurs morning la. he thinks im mad or wad? i think he's mad.

anyway, sch isnt very fantastic lately. ive been dreading every single lesson. i dunno why. but i always feel very tired. maybe i shud sleep earlier today and not care abt the inflation test tml. its so.. sian la. and i think im falling sick soon la. coz ive been very emotional lately, always wanting to cry. like just now talking to shan jing, i felt like crying. and listening to mrs chng nag, i felt like crying too. coz eventhough she nags a lot, i noe she's putting in effort, but we are just not appreciating it, eventhough not all are liddat. just like during the camp. ppl say, when one is sick, one tends to be very emotional and cry easily. so i think im falling ill soon. haha. anyway ive been feeling cold today and simply got no strength and energy at all la. other than the once in a while energy flush. and the hyped up me after maths lect. haha.

i think maths is good noe, coz it keeps my mind fresh. so, its good.

anyway, i think im gonna leave choir early for treatment, i hope i wun be leaving kucinta half learnt again. i'll have quite a hard time catching up, although its all miaoing away. haha. stupid goh toh chai. wad kinda song is this.

oh yea, im going to watch the jalyn laoshi's production movie this sat! its called smell of rain. a chi movie though. but i think it'll be nice. click here to find out more abt it. the trailers are so chio, u'll just feel like watching. but im watching the 12.20am show. yea, midnight! after my qing gong yan. but with hanquan, malcolm, yuk and rudolf though. haha. there may be more! im so looking forward to it! both qing gong yan and the movie! we're most probably going to thon the night, i think. =))

aiya, but anyway, im feeling slpy. shall sign off here. tatax~

sry sua!
hahaha! im so sry! i missed out ur name, that u were at cartel that night too!! sry la, dun be angry with me! hahaha. XP

choir camp
well well, many things happened during the camp. and i dunno how to start with la. so shall start with preparation lo.

i think its like 3 days before camp, it should be monday. i had to re-do part of the games proposal, coz some games was cancelled. and some needed amendments. then there still score sheet and nightwalk clues and lotsa stuff undone. so i stayed up all the way till 4am to do all these.

next day there was nuthing, but i was online wasting my time, having mass conference with ali ppl. it was quite fun, esp when we were trying to find out who beh beh likes. haha. anyway, that's not the main point. after all these, i started writing warm fuzzies for the j2s till 3+ am, almost 4.

finally, 1 day before camp. everything's almost settled. i still feel we should be given more time to do the camp la. partly coz there's ali baba, that's why i din have time ba. but anyway, after choir prac that day, the comm stayed for a last min meeting. and we discussed about how to scare ppl during night walk. i think the process was fun! esp with hannah they all ard. after that, most of us went for dinner. or izzit all? but we sat separately. coz some of us went to rent horror movie 1st. and im supposed to watch it and tell them if it is scary or not. we got heirloom. and trust me, it is not!

after dinner, we went to buy stuff at ntuc. and we met other half of the comm, not really half la, but its hannah, xinyi and chin guan. they were buying food for camp. and we went coz yuk wanted to buy sweets for warm fuzzies!! we shopped ard a lot and played for quite long, despite the ntuc closing in 10min time! haha. finally, everyone's done shopping and we went out, and hannah they all were outside trying to get ppl help her bring stuff home and bring the nx day. but most of us take bus to sch, so we didnt want to bring too much. and she faked angry and walked off with xinyi. then chin guan scolded us, "she take mrt very mafan one leh!" and he stormed off with them.. siao! bus then more mafan lo. later on, we found out that hannah and xinyi were acting. but i dunno wad chin guan was up to.

anyway, that night, i was busy doing up some really last min changes for the clues while trying to watch heirloom. i got my sis to watch with me. haha. after that i started writing warm fuzzies for j1s till 4am! damn. i only had like 3 hours of sleep. woke up, bathe and stuff and hurried out. but i was still late for morning meeting with the committee. im so very sorry. but i must clarify something, i may have something to say during the meeting but im NOT the one who asked everyone to go half an hour earlier..

anyway, day1 of camp, 9am in the morning, very little j1s reported. and i dunno where's the rest. only at 930am then everyone started strolling in lo. mostly girls. stroll in, chit chatting away. wth.. not even the least respect for choir, for us, for those who came at 9am. not even apologetic la. i was very frustrated. then ask them to move into their groupings, they like turtle like that take very long to move, until i shouted at them. and i had to shout at them again to keep them quiet, so that they listen to nuan talk. day1 only, they make me scold them. sigh.

anyway, during games part 1, it was alright. and everything was mmm, well. coz we din get into too much trouble with the teachers. and i thought everyone was quite enthu. after that, we had double quartet prac, followed by prac with kwei. till 6+. went for SL with 31/05 during double quartet and back to camp in half an hour time.

after that, they had dinner and bathing time. and me and lala went ard the sch, putting up some clues at ard 7 or 8. as we were trying to take short cut and walk pass the sc room(the window side), the whole sc room lit up! and ur natural reaction would be to scan the room for ppl, but the room was empty and its locked up. we got so freaked out la and we hurried off. my heart still pounds when i think of it. after putting up some clues, we went for dinner. then continued putting the rest of the clues with yuk, when the rest of the choir were in the choir room writing warm fuzzies. some seniors came back! nad, sze mun, edna, yimei, hongjiang, luke, yujie, alicia, jiemin, benjamin, nicholas, jasper.. i think no more. it was fun having them ard. but the sch was not so fun at night.

anyway, when they started moving off to lt4, we were almost done with the clues. but i felt quite uneasy. my heart was pounding fast and heavily. and it's not very normal. and i dun feel like myself. i felt quite lost at some point of time that night. nad told yuk some stuff, which i only heard of the next day. which is thursday meeting friday is not a very nice time to scare ppl. its freaky.. somemore, we were supposed to use lt3, but miss yiak asked me to change to lt4 as holding area only on that day itself. it freaks me out la. she refused to tell me wad's wrong.

anyway, as everything was set up and done, i was supposed to go into lt4 crying, but i couldnt leh, coz i felt super unease, esp when i walked thru the super dark area from staff rm to lt4. my heart was pounding especially fast. in the end i decided to drop the idea of crying. and i just went in. lt4 felt different. i felt safe there. yujie, hongkiang, nicholas, malcolm and yuk was there. after some time the 3 seniors left. and it felt quite bored, as the movie was playing. its heirloom, the boring horror movie. and dunno where malcolm went. leaving yuk alone with the j1s, i left lt4 and i saw sue ann, liu qiong and malcolm. the 2 girls were too scared to start off. haha. so funny. malcolm and i begged and comforted them to move on. and finally they agreed with us walking with them. but malcolm went off after the 1st checkpoint. i walked with them till the 4th. anyway, for luke's checkpoint, i think its very scary leh! haha. coz its like, luke is the scariest! haha. he managed to scare me too! haha. and jiemin also scare me, eventhough i noe its her.

anyway, after walking the 2 girls to the 4th checkpoint, i wanted to go to the rooftop. coz ive nv been there. and i walked thru block2, which is next to block3 where sc rm is situated. and u noe, i was curious, so i looked into the sc rm. and i saw something. i hope its my imagination, but i ran to the foyer, where nuan they all were. maybe i was too tired la. but i dunno. then i went to the rooftop via the emergency staircase. dj, tze chong(eugene) and jasper were there. i felt safe there too. lt4 and the rooftop felt the safest that night. and i din wanna go down anymore. so i just stayed there till everything ended. anw, the seniors left at ard 12 midnight.

other than all these freaky stuff, there are some irritating j1s in choir, for example the ones who finished their night walk and started walking ard, telling other ppl where we were hiding, the one who pushed and threw light stick at yimei. and even scolded her. and the one who kept walking ard, playing the piano and the lights in lt4. all these ppl are so damn irritating la. and rude! i spent the most time and effort on night walk, trying to make it fun (and scary) for all, but all these idiots spoilt everything la. wasted my effort lo! damn pissed off with them la.. there were of course other problems. but nvm, although all are worrying to me. anw, i think sue ann and liu qiong are very cute. haha.

after the night walk, everyone went for supper and to bed, lights out at ard 2+. me, yuk, lala, nuan, bel, eugene, zhi xiong, dj, hanquan, malcolm... i dunno how many guys la.. but we all went to bathe. then we went back to our respective classrooms to fake slp. after the tchrs made their rounds, me, yuk, lala, nuan, bel, eugene, zhi xiong, dj and kunlin went to the grandstand to chit chat till ard 5.30am. coz we saw shaun walking towards the pe dept toilet, alone! he looked as if he was sleep walking, haha. but he went there to bathe. we started walking ard, coz it was getting cold, and everyone was hungry. lols. then we all went back to slp.

woke up at ard 730am, it was sooo bloody cold. i think i was slping under a fan. maybe that's why. anyway, most j1s were already up. ooops. haha. we washed up, kept our slping bags and had breakfast, while the rest went for pt. then the comm went to set up games part 2! it was alright la, but coz its wet games, u see, it more troublesome, and we get into more troubles with the tchrs. so mafan! anyway, games went and ended well.

later on was debrief. but before the games officially ended, i had some free time, so i talked to hannah they all, telling them all the problems, till i felt like crying. sigh. i really dunno how will choir turn out to be next time.

during debrief, i think i sounded dead serious la. everyone was so damn quiet. oops. i hope i wasnt too fierce. when hannah talked, she talked abt the problems for f&b until she sounded as if she's gonna cry anytime. and actually both me and yuk wanted to cry also lo. i guess we are all mentally and physically tired. but anyway, charlene concluded the debrief for us on a very light note. and we all stood up to sing no importa once again. =)

after prize presentation, everyone went mad, started taking photos of the "couples" haha. then after that, break camp, and j2s had to meet yiak. and yay! everyone can go for lunch!!

went for lunch with the usual ppl, yuk, bel, lala, nuan, eugene, hanquan, malcolm, zhi xiong. cheng en and jeremy joined us. joey and i forgot his name! chee something, went to eat mee sua. we talked a lot about the spooky aj during night walk. i think we were freaking cheng en out. he was sitting near us, listening to all the weird things that happened that night. and cheng en was actually very scared during the night walk. haha. i think this yr's batch very hum leh! some ppl cried during night walk lo. one of them was a guy la! shall not name him. but its like bad enough. my batch no one cried other than serene.

but yea, i hope they had fun, that's the most important. at least i had my share of fun, throughout the camp, despite all the unhappiness and some conflicts. i think majority of the j2s are getting more and more united. and that's a good sign! yay!

i thank all those who brought joy and laughter to me during the camp, as well as those who worked closely with me for games and night walk. even if u had only walked ard the sch with me at night once. thnx for all who participated in the planning of the camp as well as those who came for it =). wanna thank these ppl, not in order of appreciation, nuan, yuk, lala, bel, zhi xiong, han quan, dj, malcolm, eugene, charlene, hannah, xinyi, huiying, michelle, chin guan, all j1s and j2s who participated!

anyway, i reached home after all these, and i talked for very long with my mum, i just kept following her ard the house, telling her abt the freaky stuff that happened, and how frustrated, tired and worried i am, and how i felt like crying. i said a lot. i think for abt an hour. and she tried comforting me. i think i say till i wanna cry at a point of time, coz my voice was shaking. but i didnt. then i fell aslp at ard 4+ in the afternoon. i woke up at 11+ at night. haha. and guess wad? i continued with my stories abt the camp. but this time for only abt half an hour. i love my mummy! then watched some tv. and went to slp again, at ard 2am.

wow, this is sucha long entry! i felt better everytime i finish talking abt it. =)) tatax~

ALI BABA
it has finally ended with a BANG! actually, i dun really miss them now. maybe im gonna miss them more during weekends, since all the pai lians and rehearsals are during weekends. i'll be so bloody free during weekends now and with no good reason for not doing my work during weekends. like i use ali baba as an excuse. but yea. quite sian now. like very free, which is not supposed to be the case.

anyways, ali baba ended on sunday. and i had the urge of crying when the finale ended. but then everyone very hyped up and we had to take photos. so i didnt! haha. sry, but image is important too. XP. anyway, after all the photo takings and signing and stuff, we went fish&co. for dinner. then cafe cartel for gossip sessions! woot! it so fun! did i say borong came back and joined us? haha. and beh beh joined us as well! beh beh is so cute! despite his big head. hahaha. lemme see, me, sining, vic, pinkie, sheila, chermaine, jiam, beh beh, fish, samuel, jonathan, borong, jiarui & yihao were at cartel gossiping! haha. i think that's abt it. cant remember liaos. hanged ard there till cartel closes.

oh btw, did i mention that we did one of the dance in ali baba (chacha) outside fish&co.? haha. so funny! all of us just went there and ya.. DANCE! lols. facing the traffic, and many ppl saw us. haha. and its more than those ppl who gossiped at cartel later. its us qnt ppl, gold, silv and red! so many classes!

reached home all tired and worn out.

i'll miss all the gossip sessions, like i always doooo.. XP

anyway, monday! there's choir. had a very ineffective meeting. 1stly, no one was on time. coz im late too XP. 2ndly, no one was listening when i talked. so yea. wth. anyway, we had vocal trng with kwei. and its kinda scary, coz he made us sing one by one. phew, i guess i passed the so-called test. and i think he's extremely nice to us all! sometimes its a bit scary. but anyway, he's face turned super black after his trng with the sops. i wonder wad happened. or izzit coz that the combine session was not good enuff?

anyway, after choir ended, there's meeting and stuff with yiak, till like almost 8pm. then we walked ard the sch again for the night walk. coz some of them wanna noe the route. after that, me, yuk, hanquan, malcolm, lala, zhixiong, tze chong & bel went for dinner. another crazy night. but not as crazy as with the ali baba buds. still, its enjoyable.

reached home, cheong games proposal till 4am. zzz. but actually im not say very tired. but yea. just feeling kinda sian. like im supposed to be revising work, yet im not. and yea, its been ages since i went for chiropractic. oops. i shud find a time to go like tml or something. i think my back is getting worse. for not going there more than one month.

mmmm. there;s choir tml, thurs and fri as well! so tiring. and there's tutorials to be completed!! oh wells. think i shud sign off here. tatax~

ali baba
well well. there was tech run at kallang on wed. but before that, there was cca carn 2! but its kinda screwed up. yea, nvm. and quite little ppl came for audition la. quite sad noe. we need more ppl. anyway, after cca carn, went to meet joseph, tze hui, yunkai, yihao and all. and went kallang together. reached there for dinner, then start of tech run. but everything was kinda screwed up too. coz the backdrop all not done up. then everything got delayed. and we only left the theatre at ard 11pm. quite bad lo. and i was seriously damn tired and slpy. and i decided not to go school the next day.

and yea, the next day (9th march), was full dress. went there, met yisong and joseph on the bus. i was actually quite bz yday. i also dunno why. putting make up, helping others put make up and stuff. and i dun really have time for dinner. and swallowed down some food and went for mic test. then it was tech run again. or dry run. wadeva it is. it ended kinda late. and the rehearsal started only at 8pm. wth. super late la. until towards the end, we hadta skip one scene in order to finish everything on time to let us off. if not we wun be able to catch the last bus or wadeva home. everything is so screwed up la. sound cue wrong, light cue wrong, bar cue wrong, then those cui chang ppl came late. everything is just screwed up! urg..

there's one more full-dress rehearsal today la. but im actually quite worried for it. sigh.. oh ya, 2 mics went off last night, i heard. i cant imagine wad would happen if that happen tonight.

anyway, i heard choir ppl had dinner with mark last night. coz its his last day. techinically, today is his last day, but yea. too bad, i missed it. let's hope he'll enjoy his last day before ns. haha.

and, all the best to all the ali baba crew! that's all. tatax~
