a summary of my two days

okayy, i figure this would be quite long cause things happened from yesterday. haha.

so we were released from lessons at 11+ yesterday so that we could go down to toa payoh to support the basktball girls in theirs finals against rjc. so by the time we reached there, there was like a huge entourage of vjc people till we took the entire half of the stadium. ahha. rjc only took the centre of their half and more. still not as much as us. hahah. hmmm, maybe not so many went down because of lessons or something so i shan't comment much bout their supporters. ahah. but the match alone was the actual limelight. in fact it was more than that, it was the THING. haha. the match started off well in favour of vjc, and in fact we were leading for the next three quarters. how nice. but then again, though we were leading, rjc was nonetheless just behind us by around 2-4 points. scary huh? i can imagine the amount of stress of the players on court lahx. i mean the supporters maybe up there supporting you whenever your team gets control of the game or when you score the point, but there's always the unmentioned pressure from them that can really drive you nuts. ha. i'm not some pro sportsman in the professional circuit but i can sorta understand by being a performer on stage. that aside. in the last quarter with vjc leading by if i recall correctly 2 points, rjc slowly caught up with us and scored 10points within the last minute. in fact, if i recall correctly again, they score a majority from penalties. i guess our girls must be getting quite jittery for them to get all gropey and all thus giving our opponents the chance to score through penalties. ha. i dun really know much of the terminologies ya? ha. but in the end the score was 57-47, we lost.

but with dignity.

and that's what i really love bout vjc. we fight our hearts and guts out on the court/ pitch/ pool/ stage and even though we lose, we know that deep within our hearts the line NIL SONE LABORE is clearly imprinted in our memories. love it absolutely. and on top of that, i also take pride in our basketball girls' results, and from the clappings and wheeing from the vjc supporters at the end of the game, i believe everybody felt the same way. and that's what i really enjoy of vjc too- the taking pride of all our teams be it in sports or academic or cultural groups. when you take on our team, you take on the whole school. we enjoy the glory together and in the same way no less, we share the loss together. it's been a great game basketball girls! and though we may have lost, deep in our hearts well at least in mine, you guys rocked toa payoh stadium yesterday and to me you guys deserved champions. well done.

to all of our teams out in the finals such as the soccer boys and hockey boys and girls- all the best and may the Victorian Spirit burn within you during the match! all the best!

ha. we'll leave that to that. after the match, i went back to school by the bus that school provided and went straight to the choir room. being unable to find someone to go home with or for that matter to walk out of school with me, i studied in the choir room with edwin. after he left, i cleaned the choir room knowing that tenors have to clean it up. ha. so i helped them do their job. haha. whatever. but since then, i was feeling really really tired and all. gah. called darel and went back with him to bedok where eventually he took a bus home. i on the other hand took the same bus back to parkway because i thought i had time to go back to pasir ris but in the end i didn't. so ya, was time well spent with darel- all that bitching; ha. so i went back to parkway to mett kh and elias for guitar concert.

guitar concert was not too bad lahx. frankly, i didn't know what to expect of the concert, but overall it was quite enjoyable especially that bossa nova song and the daniel band. haha. damn, you guys seriously rock. it was really really good. haha. well done guitar ensemble. it was a good eye opener. lolx.

it was a great 2 days and just came back from choir prac of which we're going to perform for the world hr congress on 30may and the sco performance thing too. so ya. catch us then ya? ha. hmmm. alrights i better be on my way to church already. ms is gonna get real exciting!
