there has been much speculation
about the things around us.
seeing 2 ions merging as one
brings much excitement to the class.

ions are weird things.
they seek electrons from fellow mates
but yet are unable to make a public call
well we leave it to fate.

let us all leave ions by themselves
let them settle it on their own
let us not disturb them
silent mode we set on our phones.

caught sleeping

like wow. today's the first time i actually slept during both tutorial and lecture. slept during ch tutorial and econ lecture to be exact. but frankly, i was really really tired lahx. damn.

-choir morning prac-
has been going on for a few days already. its been tiring but i figured that the day i joined choir, i made a personal self promise that i'll stay faithful to the choir, to do my part in terms of singing blah blah blah. yea.

HA! made my own noodles today. not very big thing right? hahah. i added mushrooms and sausages. hahha.do you know how long it actually takes to prepare and cook mushrooms. you gotta soak then slowly throw in the water to cook. ahhh- long process. hahaha.

think i'm gonna sleep soon. really really tired. hahhaa

to zara and the dhStrings ppl:
tml strings SYF le! jiayou!
i'll be praying for you guys!

heh.

totally screwed.

have got a pile of homeowork to complete:
1) Econs essays- 1 left
2) Physics Assignment- due tuesday
3) Chinese Assignment- due tomorrow
4) Physics lecture Test- with so much to do, i reckon there's time for me to do revision.

`totally screwed.

ouch.

workshop. argh.

had a workshop. must say it was a ear-opener. heard tpjc, mjc, ajc, and yeah. we performed. i shan't say who's the best, cause all of us had their own good and weak points. just wanna say about our standard and performance.

i must say that today we definitely underperformed. wesped up for pamugun. totally not supposed to happen. lily: we were better. yea! but overall i think we didn't do that well. as compared to the practice we had at sch that day. i felt that one was much better.

to vjchoirmates: yo dudes! i know we didn't really sound that good that day, but let's all now realise the truth that there are other choirs that are better or going to be better than us. that is if we let our guards down! time to get our act together and really sing our hearts out! we can do this. i personally feel that the word 'try' should never be in the choir's dictionary. it's either we do or we don't. no in-betweens. since we've come thus far, we might as well give it our best shot, and go all the way to the gold with honours! tell urself and encourage those around you. we're family after all. brothers and sisters as one. we can do this, and i'm sure with our standard, our commitment, our dedication and our passion for choir, we can do this and get what we've all been waiting for.

~yea!
:)

sian.

today econs lecture was damn slack lahx. hahaha. super duper slack. lectruer late for a whole period lahx. hahaha. he didn 't know changed from LT1 to LT5. hahaha. then late for 1 whole period. come in then start sprouting some alphabets [he was referring to some area under some graphs]. super slack lahx. we were like palying bridge in that 1 period lahx. so darn fun. hahaha. heh! then talk, and crap around the bush. ghahaha. pretty fun to have lecturers as farni as him. might as well fail econs lahx. hahaha. then again, when lect started proper, the LT was barely half full. hahaha. quite fun. hahaha.

watched acjc choir perform at the esplanade yesterday. they were damn good lahx. as in seriously. thrash us flat. hahaha. sops the high notes are intense, high pitched, soft [pp]. pro! hahha. i worry for us now. haix. hahaha.

c'mon guys! we can do this! challenge ourselves in this 2.5wks.
push ourselves to the limits.

this was exactly wat i said to the vschoir like 2mths b4 their competition, but i guess it can be applied to us too:
look at the badge that we adorn everyday. what does it say? NIL SINE LABORE. that's what it says. in 3 words, 1 sentence, it has coptured the essence of the importance of hard work. Nothing without labour. that's wat it means. don't think that just because in the past, we were good, we will be good this time round. a choir is as good as its members. riding on the glories of the past batches should never be on our agenda. we gotta work for it. its the same as our academics/ sports/ games/ cca. we put in the effort so as to reap the rewards of our labour. at least at the end of the day, even if we do not get that choir of the year or even gold with honours, we can still stand up strong and proud and tell people that at least we've done our best. but if at the end of the competition, we've not done our best, it'll be the greatest pity of all. EVEN if we get the top prize, the gold with honours. the choir of the year award. anything is possible in this 2 months [hey! vjc: 2.5mks time hor....] i challenge all of you to take up this challenge. to put in your best in this competition, to practise consistently. to be independent and responsible singers.

Nil Sine Labore.
and we will not forget.

midnight studying.

well well well. i came home at 9pm today after a pretty short choir practice working on syf pieces only, and a dinner at swensons. well not exactly dinner, but should i say bananarish- sinful- desserts or more specifically ice cream there. ha. i'm being cornifed again.
