hello again. today i hav something interesting to blog abt. haha.
besides the usual fated cursed chem pracs (today i broke a test tube by stirring a mixture wif a glass rod.. stir stir stir and piang.. a hole appears in the bottom of the test tube and all the toxic organic solvent and halogens spills onto the table. yay.) and other normal lessons.. some other interseting thing happened.
today i was supposedly caught 'sleeping' during Introduction to Human Societies lecture.. okay lah.. maybe its because my specs are too thick.. maybe its because i was looking too stone.. k lah i admit.. i wasnt realli tt interested in urban planning.. maybe its becos i dint make eye contact the whole lesson.. maybe he doesnt like my face.. =P
heres wad happened.. described graphically in slow motion.. the teacher suddenly pauses, walks up to my table, i see his eyes staring at mine (as u can see im nt sleeping) then i think he cud be wanting to tap my table to ask me a question or smth. instead he whacks my table wif such force tt it collapses and everything falls to the floor. (LT tables quite easy to fall.. nt surprised it did) then theres silence from everybody while i slowly pick up my stuff.
my feelings? i din feel anything.. lol. normally pple wud get pissed lah. not sleeping oso still wake pple up. lololol. well.. when these type of stuff comes my way in life.. i jus take it as a joke lah. stuff tt u read off blogs. stuff tt u tell ur friends jokingly.. tts wad this type of incidents are.
yeah.. hope i showed Christian qualities today. cya. :P
wow. today was one eventful day.
for once in 4 nights i finally slept well. woke up to go to the church advance. haha.. i realli wasnt prepared for the facilitating... i jus sorta.. well.. haha. did it? lolz. hmm.. todays message at advance was abt prayer.. it realli makes us think abt our prayer life. wad the purpose driven life series does is realli to make u change the way u live ur life.. increasing the amt of prayer u do and oso keeping a prayer journal is realli nt easy.. but i think is possible if we can be committed to it. hope i can... haha.
aft tt went town to walk abt.. then went to moulmein church of Christ for combined youth fellowship. was realli fun.. as i said b4... wad we can learn from them is realli their sincerity. i realli admire the hearts so sincere as theirs. yeah. the other congregations there were the geylang, moulmein, bedok, cityvision, and... us i think. haha.. games organised by candice was kinda crazy.. all our PP tekaming from all our camps and thxgiving parties all into one night. hahahah. wad a blast.
i think this type of activities is the type of revivation i've waited for since the start of this year. im somebody hu is veri easily influenced by people arnd and things tt go on arnd me.. and these activities have realli encouraged me. yeah.. so its now time to spread the joy!! haha. so glad tt pple actually came to these activities today.. instead of staying at home at doing work. heh.
kk cya all
hey all.
wow im so glad the first wk of sch is over.. the heat wave is still on and has been keeping me awake for the past few nites beyond my bedtime tho im still lying in bed.. was super lethargic in sch. fortunately this wk was quite slack.. nt much hw and got a few pockets of free periods in btwn here and there cos there was some ib authorisation thingy and some teachers had to be interviewed = free periods =P
i must say tt altho we may nt forsee it, God gives us new challenges year after year. things tt we would nvr expect at all. i mean.. wad other challenges wud u have other than the usual sch, cca, exams, and lack of sleep? tt was all the major ones i faced last yr. but this yr the molehills have sprouted in the areas i nvr expected to be targeted.. places where i nvr expected there to be problems.. and i always took for granted to be smooth running. haiz.
im still in quite a dilemma over many things. and some of these problems, you jus feel like saying... but im jus a shy 16 year old boy. how cud u expect me to these sorta things. and giving up. but deep inside my heart i noe it shud nt be this way.
tml is holiday and got church advance.. aft tt youth fellowship at moulmein in the evening. looking forward to tt. yeah.
hello everybody!~!~
jus came back from masterclass wif Maestro Carlos Bonell. basically u pay him $50 to let him hear ur piece and comment on it, play stuff for u, and tell u how to improve. quite worth it lah.
on appearing at the studio, i find out tt im the first to play.. and it starts in 5 min. so.. my brain goes into nervous overdrive lah. usually i go into nervous overdrive then calm myself a bit then play.. but this time got no time to calm myself.. so i jus tune my guitar.. strum 1 D chord for tuning check.. and.... i'm off. its indescribable.. the nervous feeling. theres a nervous feeling for performance, for exam.. but for masterclass got different one. somehow my ring finger on left hand stopped working.. so i basically screwed up all my trills lol. and all my running notes. haha in all.. roadkill.
then the comments.. honestly hes a veri nice guy.. i play until like dunno wad but still say gd stuff abt me.. he has a lot of interesting stuff to say.. all pieces have 'hooks' like in a story.. tt leads u to the nxt page. yeah. and also taught me a lot abt phrasing.. and also the super cool ritardando in time.
the masterclass is like some family gathering haha.. onli abt 15 pple showed up.. and i recognise or know half of them. its super cool man. and oso a lot of funny stuff happened.. my mind block until like a drain liddat.. he ask wad key the piece modulate to i oso dunno.. HAIYOH!! lol. i think my sec 2 fren probably played better than me lol.
yah in all veri fun... enjoyed it thoroughly altho i think i was like a joke haha.. hope to do more stuff like this nxt time =P
hey all.. will be missing for the next 2 days or so.. got guit camp in sch until saturday.. yeah.. sianness.
jus now went out wif glenn, mark, shawn, and nehe.. guy's nite out lol.. toked a lot of nonsense wif them... swarmed wif comments from army life. they still watching movie now i think.. started at 9:20.. was too late for me... so i left.. haha. imagine wad time i wud have gotten home.
yupz.. guess tts all u all will be hearing of me for a while..
cya.
hey again!!
wow this 2 days i realli got a taste of 'the days' again.. ytd went for bbq wif pple from thailand, as well as from other congregations.. was so cool.. wacko wif 15 pple u dun noe, and i was like.. "hey i remember u.. u are.." haha.. i said tt to at least 5 pple, cos i met them when i was sec one (now i sec 4) on the chiangmai trip. now im all grown up!! *kiddish face*. oso heard some thai pple's testimonies. i think wad singaporean Christians sometimes lack is sincerity and child-likeness. maybe we've grown up knowing too much and become cynical. heheh.
yeah.. our open hse preps are also back on track.. im glad abt tt. i think everybody also thoroughly enjoyed todays practice.
have u ever felt when u were a child tt u were having such fun at ur fren's hse and din want to go back when it was getting late? tts exactly how i feel now.. its like a taste of heaven. i wish everybody wasnt so stressed up by sch and homework.. cos even if u dint have hw u wun have any frens to play wif cos they'd all be doing hw!! haha. sometimes i wish tt hols dint have to end. especially last june, wif june camp and open hse. tt was when i got to know the youth even closer than b4.
yeah.. the days. waiting for 'em.
hey everyboday!!
wah im super exhausted now.. jus came back from my guitar teacher's house in ANG MOH KIO.. 1h from sch there, and 45min from there home. ugh. felt like puking on the bus ride back.. lousy pok 165 bus.. lol.
anyway, my guitar teacher told me i can play in a master class nxt sunday evening!! haha my first time. a master class is basically where u churn out a reasonable sum of marney in order to have some pro dude hear u play a piece and comment on it. in front of a live audience. so excited!! haha. the funny thing is tt for the first bit of this year, i have no pieces in my performing repertoire.. so im gonna play a piece tt i learned in less than a month.. grade 8 ABRSM piece called Arabe Capricho. ^^
yeah tts abt it.. i think tonite i wun do any work man.. supposed to study chinese but... my brain is jammed. badly.
hope tagboard repairs itself quickly!!
^^^
my new fone.. looks like vertu but its a nokia 6020.. haha. quite gd.. but my father dint consult me b4 buying (same wif 3100 lol).. but its a nice fone
heya. hows life yall.
this wk's been tough and the following weeks are gonna be tougher. yea. today jus came back from guitar practice. reall tired. its quite crazy rite.. wake up at 6:10 in the morning to go to sch and come back after cca at wad.. 7? the real time sch ends on friday is 12:40. guitar is 5 - 7. heheh. budden our teacher says tt its better cos no other cca grps fight over wad facilities to use.. cos they all arent here. yeah wadeva. our bodies may be in sch but our minds are already somewhere else at tt kinda time.
yupz tts all. monday is acs(i) holiday!!! hahahaha. and amazingly all the teachers dint give hw!!! yeah!! for once lah. so happy. can go do my long term homework.
kk cya all now.
hey yall.
the reason y ive been missingin blogging action this few days is cos of depression. as in.. i nvr been this depressed since p. sch. should i disclose y? i dunno.. i feel my life has turned upside down. i've realised how much time sitting in front of the com wastes. i mean, i stay away from the com for one nite.. and i manage to finish mugging for 2 tests like it was nth. and my parents have found out abt lots of the crap tt i do. like im goign to take mc to ponn st johns camp (but ur parents dun noe rite? ;P)
i think my sadness has turned me into a veri blunt person. somehow now i cant stand pple hu tell me they cant do smth. i mean.. jus do it lah. no need to tell me u cant. wadeva.
everytime when there is release of exam results, like psle, o lvl, alvl, i find it veri ironic tt the media onli interview those pple hu score high high in the exams.. and say wad.. oh the no. of failures is xx%.. less than last yr. the media doesnt show wad happens to those pple hu dun make it. for wadeva purposes. imagine u are oneof those hu dint make it... and everytime u see the tv screen or npp front page u see rgs pple crying in tears of joy when urs are tears of sadness. the irony. man i dun even understand wad im writing.
anyways, the open house preparations are going to be 'revamped'.. performance date is going to be pushed forward to nxt yr june so tt pple will have more time on their hands to do other stuff. i think this sounds quite logical lah. everybody has schwork to do.. and nt always do u have the time and energy to churn out 4 sunday afternoons a month. and go there.. u feel so stressed to meet the deadlines by learning the songs tt the practices dun feel fun anymore.. tt shudnt be lah. so practices are now goign to be 2 a month. yeah.
my life is still in an utter mess.. trying to pick up the pieces. this is onli the beginning. ugh im uttering crap.
