i went to cut my hair today! super layered.. as in more layered than before, but jo said it not tt obvious. i wana rebond my hair but most of my frens and cousins said my hair is straight enough so didnt rebond today..but regret la.. after cutting my hair.. my hair became more puffy.. gotta rebond on monday ba.
after cutting my hair, i went to macs at bukit batok to do hw with joanna.. we spent abt 5 good hours doing hw and chit-chatting.. haha.. i have the mood studying outside..cos at home i was so distracted by my bed and my computer.. hav the tendency to touch them. haha..studying at macs motivates me to finish my sums.. haha..maybe next time will do hw there again with jo. tink i was too slow.. only manage to finish 1 chap of phys and some qns on maths.
abt 6.30, i accompanied jo to to buy some stuffs for her malaysia trip.. she said its more like an OBS trip loh.. haha.. i totally agree with her.
the next choir prac is on next fri.. haha.. some freedom finally..haha..but i'll miss singing.. muchaha. jo told me tt for the video shoot, choir is singing school song, why nev call me! i wana sing the school song!haha =p

yesterday was fun! haha.. though it was jus a meeting abt choir camp.. the activites was sure fun.
we had our meeting at joanna's place. karissa, peizhen and i reached 1st then sze xin came late despite staying so near to jo's place! well, i was initially late as well, cos i went to ngee ann poly with teng to get contact lenses but the optician told me tt i could get both of my boxes by monday! bleahz. too bad winnie cant come due to bad headache.
we laughed alot during the metting and ate alot as well.. as if we were having a picnic like tt. joanna seems to have a bagful of yummy snacks and karissa brought her yummy but salty nuts as well.. sze xin ate too much until he claimed tt the salt sort of gave me a burning feeling on his tongue.. serves him rite for eating too much! haha. if any choir members happened to read my post, i'm telling you our choir camp rawks! after 2 hours, sze xin and pei zhen left.. leaving only me and jo and karissa.. so we did our math hw together till 7 plus.
today is WINSTON BRITHDAY! HAPPY BRITHDAY TO YOU WINNIE! xp
before choir prac, i went to sze xin's hse to bake winnie's cookie. however,i was delayed cos i gotta take a lighter from my ah ma hse. and sx told me tt joanna and him got a lighter as well. "-_- waste my time. eventually i didnt help much besides helping to munch on karissa's M&MS =). sx's little brother is cute but loud. haha. probably because sx's method of baby-sitting his younger brother.. haha..
after baking the cookie, i went with karissa to her fren's she while joanna went for sectinals. at 1st i was quite afraid tt they would mind me there... afterall i'm not from St Marg's. but still ok la, we had a game of UNO and had yummy pasta for lunch! its so tasty!
seems like lotsa things happened today for altos.. haiz.. but i hope its ok now. after choir prac, we had a mini birthday celebration for WINNIE. the cookie was really hard but its yummy =).
ok, here's a pic of the birthday cookie(in replacement of cake):

such a big cookie yea? haha.. took a photo of it under the table.. i bet winnie didnt take note of it =)

Wah, damn tired today. *yawns* tenor part was real hard. so IRRITATING.wahaha =p
anyway, yesterday i went bugis with my mum.. cos the day before YESTERDAY iwent out with my best buddy patricia for shopping at bugis stree.. i bought a pair of lovely white lacy shoes but it's aint really my size and the pair i took was the last pair. u noe i rather not lose the cahnce of getting pretty shoes.. so yep i bought it.. but its kinda tight, so i wen back to the shop to expand my shoes. eventually i bought one more shirt. haha. i love the dresses out there but its not suitable for casual events. haiz.
today i meet kemin early for a morning jog. kemin decided to run the canal cos she doesnt want to use the track as the ODAC(or SC?) ppl are running.. yep... so we decided to use the canal.. and also it's longer than the normal 2.4km. so when we ran, we tot the entire canal is ours.. but realised tt the rugby guys were running as well.. haha.. but we bo chap them la.
after the long jog, we were so exhausted tt we cant be bothered to bathe 1st, so we ate at Macs and met other excos members.
during sectionals, my dear SLs were testing altos who are able to reach the low E note. some of them were real talent; so much better than me.. i tot i wont be in tenor anymore since others are lots more stable. so i was feeling down a lil. however, when its time to learn karsar, felicia called me out and asked me to join tenor. i was a little surprised.. cos afterall i'm not the best tenor u noe.. my low notes are shaky.. but ms ong wants me so.. jus obey her intstruction loh.. hope tt she's okay after the operation =)
after the prac, the excos had a meeting for choir camp! shld be damn fun =) after the meeting only me, jo and peizhen ate long john silver for dinner and chatted till 8 plus..
tmr going jo's hse do math hw! sian. Wahah!

i've finished watching GOONG! *claps claps*
anyway this post shld be damn long.. dun say i nev warn u ah..
yesterday PJ choir carolled at paragon for Metro-SIF thingy... the choir sounded okay la.. w are not performing at our maximum potential.. the altos got sawyed away by the sops during some songs.. haha.. but nvm.. altos rawk! NYJC choir and some supporters came down to support us.. i saw my dear christine and we were so happy tt we met each other.. so we took lotsa photos together =) missed those times when we practiced together during SAM concert.
anyway, yesterday when i entered the school with my slippers.. the male security guard stopped and refused to let me in. he sounded as if i hav commited a grave mistake.. jus only slippers wat.. so i had no choice but to wear tt choir silver shoes. and the female security guard though tt those were dancing shoes..and she kept complimenting tt my shoes looks beautiful...haha.. on the way met Szexin and we asked him to take our barang barang.
perhaps early in the morning we dun sound good.. so karissa and i were quite worried tt we cant make it... we boarded the bus at 1.30 and headed to paragon for a sound check. we attracted lotsa angmohs.. haha.. they seems to enjoy though we were jus making the sound check.. then there's a lil caucasian gal was so adorable! she went to talk to tt santa claus doll and told 'him' that she wants lotsa presents during Xmas. lolx.
Mrs tan(P) told us we dressed like angels and we were so beautiful.. wahaha.. frankly speaking, i dun like our gown.. so old-fashioned.. haha.. and its so long! but cheap la.. tts why our senios chose it.. haha.. ms usha wanted us to do some dramatic welcome when whenever she said 'pioneer junior college'..-_- whatever la. after the performance, we had our refreshemnt at the smae spot.. DOME really sells damn nice cheesecake! haha.. mr yeo(VP)approached us and joked with us and even make fun of my carrot-kind! but nvm.. he's friendly.
after taking photos with NY ppl, the excos went to starbucks for a meeting with Ms Ong.. she treated us drinks =, strawberry tarts and yummy chocolate cakes... total cost is 60 bucks! so we all secretly put money into her handbag.. but she found out eventually. hehe. meanwhile karissa entertained us with her M&MS =p
with karissa and sx left us, we went to cineleisure for our dinner at yoshinoya.. cos me and pz quite full..so we shared a bowl of rice together.. we crapped alot and sang damn loud while eating.. wahah.. tts wat choir members do ma..after tt mikhail came and we sang a lil outside the shopping centre. i actually wanted to sing in front of the public to test if the pass-bys will give us money or not.. haha.. anyway we went back to take our neoprints.. too bad my laogong,wingki and enoch left early. next time will post the photos there.. this stupid winne and kehkhiong have decide to calle me DARREN when i join the tenors.. -_-..wah lau..so fast treat me as a guy.
yesterday i received a phonecall and make me reflect on a problem tt i've forgot to think abt it cos i was so busy.. i'm confused and yet no one is willing to lend me a hand to pull me back. i feel so.. lost. the future is so uncertain and i duno if i can take up the gamble or not.

POTENTIAL FUTURE TENOR NEXT YEAR! dont pray pray hor..wahaha!
yep..i'm maybe going to be a tenor next yr during SYF since we do not have enuf tenors to sing the notes.. so our conductress decided to get Altos who can sing even lower notes to join the tenors.. surprisingly i can reach a few low notes.. ta-da.. i'm one the choices for tenor =) .. haha.. some gals are so envious of me.. cos going to tenor ma.. shld be damn interesting..my dear kar cheng buddy karissa would love to go to the tenor section..but such a pity, ms ong said her voice is 'unclean'.. haha.. to think i still laughed at her when she sang low notes.. in the future.. i even worse la! poor karissa.. no choice la.. haha.. one part of the kar cheng must be in the alto and the other kar cheng must be in the tenor! azulina is also another person who is joining the tenor as well.. haha
but still, ms ong will do a voice check for everyone.. so i may not be a tenor after all.
today i woke up at 7am to prepare the jogging session in school at 8am. the joggers- kemin, teng, siyuan and myself hav swore to jog for 2.4km.. however, the 2 princesses teng teng and siyuan decided to stop jogging after 2 rounds.. after jogging, we did a few sit ups for fun and ate breakfast at mac.
basically.. we jus keep singing loh.. and combined prac like mad.. oh yes.. we had sectionals today outside LT3..then one freaking examiner came and shoot us saying tt we sang so damn loud. fine loh.. we will sing in the LT.
oh yes.. for those who are free.. come to paragon tmr at 4.30pm to watching choir performance! we will be singing 6 carols! try to come down yes? i hope to see some familar faces there...

yesterday was FUN! =)
yesterday was sze xin's birthday! sx is my choir pres btw.
anyway, yesterday woke up at 7am to meet laura for a jog at 7.45am.. ran 2.4km.. but was slower than before now! tink my stamina and endurance deproved by alot.. gotta train myself again! after tt, i wen to laura's hse for a break. and when i got home.. it was 9am. i rushed like mad cos i gotta meet karissa and peizhen at west mall to buy ingredients for baking. we also bought a sunflower for juliet.. oh she's the NYJC choir pres..its her birthday as well =)
we couldnt find a tray for baking.. so me and pz gotta go to jurong east jus to purchase it.. but anyway, her mum bought it so we bought lunch for everyone at kfc in the je entertainment centre. the cashier tt served me was horribly rude and unreasonable. she talked to the delivery man and simply bo chap me until i said excuse me. her attitude reminds me of my PW skit.. which i gotta act as a bloody rude waitress..haha.. she deserved our Serivce Improvement(SI) card! pz was so pissed off that she kept glaring at her and talked in a damn fierce manner.. haha..serves her right.
when we reached karissa's hse, one of the cakes is ready.. we deorated our cakes with M&Ns.. initially we wana use these to write HAPPY BDAY.. but realised the M&Ns might slide down due to the shape of the cake. jo's father fetched us to bible hse... luckily we could get a lift otherwise i wonder how to travel to the bible hse without soaking.
we jus did our combined prac as usual.. until abt 4.30pm, jo, pz, karissa and i.. and on NY side, kaibin and wee san made all necessary preparation for the surprise.. we wana prank sx.. but was a failure.. haiz.. hah.. cos the candle was supposedly not being able to be extinguished..but somehow its doesnt work! i made 2 'Star president of the yr' badges to both pres.
after the presents were distributed, i asked PJ to take a foto.. but sadly, they arent listening to me.. all of them were very rowdy and talking among themselves.. my poor pz was teling them to move over but they dun really care.. finally i couldnt stand it and i shouted at the top of my voice to ask them to move. there was a moment of silence at 1st.. guess they must be damn shocked.. finally when i smiled, they went back laughing.. but least they get my instruction. phew.. tt was really exhausting.. i hope i will nev scream or shout at them in the future... i hope they will be sensitive enuf to get my point..
finally sx, mikhail, me and some excos helped to distribute the slices of cake.. haha.. everyone said tt its nice.. of cos la.. its secret recipe =). after tt, a few of PJ and NY ppl went to funan foodcourt to get some food. atthere, we made self-introduction and of cos we sang in the food court, ignoring the other customers.. whahaa.. we sang again in the MRT station.. so fun! and becos of singing, those who took the green track missed 2 trains! but its ok.. wat matters is tt we can sing =)
when i went to phy tuition jus now, i was surprised to see jonathan in my tuition.. wahaha! but anyway.. i shld be leaving the tuition soon since i made zero improvements.. waste money.

our cakes are at the left side of the pic.. not very clear though.

sx loves the cake we baked for him!

PJ choir!

so sweet~ so romantic! jus like jack and rose!=p

PW IS FINALLY OVER!! WOOHOO!
the past few days has been working on our OP slides and finally our efforts has been paid off today.
yesterday had PW at alvin's hse. i was quite worried on our group effectiveness cos we had very little OP rehearsals and those transition were not done. so i keep emphasising on that. we edited our slides and finally we included a skit into my presentation. while practicing our skit, we were laughing like mad.. wah me being the waitress was hard to express tt bo-chap look.. tt so not me la! however, ivan gotta leave at 2 so we continue to practice our skit. alvin felt tt it was hard to talk a lil so he wana try taking my place.. but alas, i'm stll better acting as a actress..muchaha.
after we've practiced our OP, we went to IMM for an early dinner at Pepper Lunch. Alvin was so attracted to the gal who served us.. keep telling us how friendly she was and wat, beautiful big eyes? wah.. sounds to desperate. wahaha.. but i was quite glad tt they chose this palce to eat.. cos i love the butter rice and beef!
today, my dad fetched me to alvin's hse at 8am.. so damn early la.. i was feeling really tired. we again practiced a few times before ivan came.. and we try our skit again in the living room.. we jus kept laughing.. cos i tink our skit looks dumb. haha.
when we are taking a cab, all of us were nervous.. maybe excpet for alvin.. cos he had no expression loh. we rushed to the sch.. thinking tt we are late.. but actually we are quite early. when its our turn to present, i was really anxious.. cos i'm quite afraid tt i might click wrongly.. but the laptop ws totaly laggy.. slowed down down by alot. finally when its my turn, my hands were shaking furiously.. when i was gesturing my movemnt, i realised my hands are shaking.. so i quickly grab my paper back so tt no one will noe i was shaking.. haha
when my turn was over, i feel really relaxed. phew.. when we were waiting for the group to present, we were gossiping..wahaha.. we finally can leave at 3.30pm. i met karissa and peizhen to go to bible hse to make payment for the bking fee for the rm. finally we departed at the road unctureand we went to pasta mania for today.
i ordered spicy chicken pasta.. and its was really spicy! i coudlnt finish my meal .. went to mac to buy choclate sundae. wahah.. tt time eat ben and jerry liao.. then eat ice-cream again. sure gain more fats la. after tt kar-cheng buddy and i went to lcitylink for a walk. finally i went home at 7 plus.
tmr meeting laura for a jog.. then go kar cheng's hse.. wahaha. ok tts it =)

Winnie said i'm collecting dust rite here now.. hor rite, winnie the pooh? hahahahaha.
anyway, recently i kept going out.. very packed with activities. sat was karissa's birthday.. her lovely parents invited a few choir mates to join her at bukit batok civil service club. i met melody and joanna at west mall before going to that venue... along the way, we met the karissa's frens who are the bowlers.. they are like taking their laugage to the club la.. but actually its all their bowling equipment.
wah i feel so paiseh when i'm there.. cos my ball always roll to the drain(is it called tt?) there.. tts so embarrasing la.. haha.. i nev had a strike at all la.. anyway the experience was fun.. made new frens there.. =)
today had OP at 8am.. my grp was the 2nd grp to present.. i was always tt tense and nerous.. bad character of me =(. but anyway, i tink today's OP was okay.. at least i passed.. gotten a 14/24.. wahaha.. mdm chong wrote tt my hand gestures are 'at least better than Alvin' haha. after our OP, we went for a lil break.. and chit chatted with the class till 11 plus? then they went to Queensway for archery stuffs.. while me waited for teng so tt we can go to vivo city to look for jobs.
ate at subway again! but this time i didnt c that cute guy.. haiz.. sad man.. only managed to spot him when i'm going home. -_- oh, i love oatmeal raisin cookies =). after tt teng and i began to look for jobs. manged to get 4 forms from the clothes boutique and 1 confirmed job at winter time.. the branch manager is so friendly..but the timing is too stressful.. imagine working from 11 to 9.30pm? damn tiring la.. but the purpose is to noe product knowledge la.. so its understandable.
finallly we met up with serence and laura, after tt we went to Ben and jerry cos i jus wana take a look at those yummy ice-creams..but in the end we ate sundaes cos its sooooo tempting!

banana fudge sundae

okay, i'm a glutton

Mix N Match.. so yummy la.. regret not buying this
