Waaahhh...havent posted for so long...even forgot what i wanted to post. Crap. Kay i'm gonna wing it. Oh yeah, its derricks birthday today. Happy 18th birthday!!! I'll celebrate with the rest of the eliteteam.

Went for NUS dialog session today with parents, met them at amk hub cause was there buying stuff for MoL. Ate pepper lunch, though not really lunch so should just be called pepper, cause...theres no lunch, just dinner. So maybe its called pepper dinner now. Why dont they just call it pepper meal to save the confusion. Ok yeah so, sat in LT4 listening to admin people from NUS NTU and SMU talk. The NTU guy talked sooooo slow...its like he. was. doing. this. every. time. he. answers. a. question. =.= Then there was this parent, keep asking weird questions that dont really relate much to the whole point of the dialog session (attitude like AYL hahahaha). Relatively pointless, though got to pick up some interesting stuff. Not much though.

Went for a talk on emotional support (another welfare thing that vice-chairs have to go to to save anyone in the class who is or will be in danger) about dealing with people who may/are attempting suicide. *sigh* its a tough job being a vice-chair. Ok fine maybe it was sorta educational. Well, initially had CO from 3 but couldnt go till the talk was over (this was wed btw). By the time i walked into the CO room, i hit a drum once, then i could go home. So essentially, i didnt do anything at all (unless you count hitting the snare ONCE). Meh...

Going back to CNY, well and valentines day, since this is like a reeeaaally rare occasion. Im still single though so doesnt bother me much. Visited relatives, some who im not so familiar with, some who i am more familiar with. Seems like im not very close with most of my cousins though. Dont go out with them much, only see them once a year kinda thing. Tried to make progress but couldnt cause didnt actually meet anyone this year. Wouldnt say i got alot of angpaos either.

Went to millys house (thanks milly) with classmates, azizan, shawn (right?), and FoC herself of course (really...FoC seems better here for some reason). Played mahjong, which i had absolutely no luck at all cause i didnt win a single round. Played wii where my luck was awesome. Made me look pro hahaha. Played blackjack and other card games that i have never heard of in my life...dont even remember what its called now.
Oh the most significant thing was that, while waiting at the bus stop for the bus home, a huge tree branch (branch sounds so insignificant though...ok think of it as a huge huuuuge tree branch) fell on the road like 50 metres away and blocked 2/3 of the road. From that i really believe that my luck was either so great that i managed to lose every single round of mahjong, or my luck was really really bad on that specific day.

1am in the morning...really tired. I should sleep now. Gonna play more mahjong tomorrow, err...i mean today. Lets see if i can be so "lucky" again.

Its 初夕 (or however you write it...), which means that tomorrow is a time of visiting, and today is a time for eating =D FOOOODDDDDDD. As it is, im already eating a bowl of noodles with soup as im typing this *chomp*. Last strand.

Yep ok so...yesterday reached school at 7am to carry instruments onto the stage for the performance (chinese new year...duh). Slacked alot after, walked around and around, played with the remaining drums in the co room, tried to get un-nervous. Usually nervousness is not something i would get, but thats only IF i dont have to lead the performance. This time...well...lets just say that the whole section was depending on the rhythm that i started off with. Great. Skipping ahead to the performance. Went up on stage, put instruments in place with 1800 people staring at us, bowed. Well that much everyone saw right? What you didnt see was my left hand and leg shaking uncontrollably after i hit the first beat. It was kinda funny. Look like some guy spazzing hahahaha....Yeah so anyway, didnt think it was that great but...its over. Phew.

Met up with the class in the hall to watch the rest of the performance got a few gifts cause of valentines day (thanks to liyan, fel (the day before), and 2/3 of my triplets ahahaha), then went to the canteen to celebrate fel's birthday. Happy birthday o.o one more person who's older than me lol. I feel soooo young.

Yup. Getting ready for steamboat later. Really really free now...apparently my dad is too. He's like playing red alert 3 in his room while waiting for the soup to finish. Oh...ok he's asking for help again...






waiting for the fooooood...

Nice...seems like I have time in the morning to do this. Yeah so as you can see it's like almost 7am, which technically is almost the time that I should be on my way to school, so gotta make this a quick one.

Went to play tennis with parents yesterday (ok parent, since my mother is overseas), cant say I played very well...my backhand was much better than the last time though (I think only sam fully understands what i'm talking about ahahaha). Went to get new clothes for the new year, forced of course, by my mother. Well her complaint was that I had to wear totally new clothes when I go to visit people...cant argue with that though. The last time I had any new clothes was like last year...late Oct? I think. Yeah anyway, went shopping with my sis at bugis, walked around, bought a shirt, then bought takoyaki. Didnt see anything else so went to chinatown cause sis wanted to get a lace for the costume she's sewing. Then went all the way back to paya lebar...sis bought clothes there, I bought another shirt. So in conclusion, it took me a total of 5hrs to get 2 shirts. Yep...highly efficient.

Oh, I just noticed something. Because of all the walking around, I didnt have any time to do any homework. Crap. Well at least it's not urgent...yet.

Ok, so now I'm like checking the bus guide for the timing of the next bus. I think I just missed one though...






*sigh*...
