7 People I Wanna See Do This
ANYONE.
The weekend's been boring. Firstly, on friday night I wasn't sure whether Jes wanted to meet me on the saturday after that or next saturday. Apparently one of her friends heard abt our playing that bishii bashii champ game and wanted to challenge me. hahaha WTH. haha
Anyway, Mel told me to sms Jes and ask, at... midnight? yeah So I suppose Jes must have been sleeping already that sleepyhead, cos she didn't reply till morning. Then it became me who was the sleepyhead, I slept till ard 11.30am. hahaah. Yeah so Jes said it was NEXT SATURDAY. So, ok. Saturday nothing to do, slack at home practice whole day.
THEN.
Today. Sunday. Was waiting to go to Talz house for practice. So was waiting eagerly and all. We were supposed to meet at 3pm. Then at 2.30pm suddenly Chuan Li asked me online, EH YOU GOT TALLIE'S MSG NOT. Then just at that moment my fone got that darned message saying that she was held up at her aunt's and couldn't make it back home in time so next week.
WTH!!!
Hahaha so Sunday has become another boring slack-at-home-practice-violin day. And now I'm so bored that I actually came back to this page and blogged. Haha I should find better things to do. Maybe I should start watching channel 8 and channel U dramas like Jes. hahahahaha. Then next time u see me can speak chinese already. HAHAHA.
So. Didn't go for training on Friday, wrist injured. How to play violin? hahah can lah only abit pain when I put my hand down to flip a page or something.
Apart from that. I have nothing to blog about. So here's just some filler. Some of you may have heard me mention some of the statements sometime ago.
Life is:
- Like a Candle that burns in a vacuum.
- Like Ice Lemon Tea.
- Spontaenous.
- One huge Drama.
- Like an Oreo Biscuit.
- A huge fiasco sometimes.
- A huge excitement other times.
- A newspaper.
- Like a wind that grows stronger every obstacle.
- The spark of a flint.
- Life.
BLAH. Some of them no meaning I know. The objects just caught my eye while I was typing it.
AaAAAaaaaaaAAh I think I'm losing it. No please don't ask me listen to Eminem.
Byebye.

It's Friday. And for once, there isn't training. No kicking ass. No Big Gulps. No Prata Dinners. No Bunny Hananas. No train ride home.
It feels weird.
But on the sane side, No wearing that blasted uncomfortable thing anymore. No extra washing for mum.
And what's more.... MORE TIME FOR THE 3 O LEVEL STUDENTS TO MUG FOR THE O LEVELS!!!
Hahaha. Just a little levity there.
Alright, it's gonna be another post about band, so those who know you aren't gonna like reading this or know you are gonna be bored out, stop HERE.
So. I went back to see the band today.
It's pathetic.
Where the bloody heck are the human beings? I saw dead people, arrogant people, people who love to laugh at their inability to play, people who kept smsing external friends in the face of the conductor, etc.
Nope, no fun playing, no correct playing, not even one count was perfect.
To all band members reading this, though this is more for the juniors, what do you want? Think!
Just what did you want when you picked band in ur CCA sheet?
Is it CCA points? Is it simply the experience of HOLDING an instrument? Or did you perhaps want friends? Or maybe you wanted to rise far up and be an overlord with a post? Did you want recognition?
Please, ask urself that.
Apart from that. The only other problem lies with the bloody teachers. Please la. You want another Gold with Honours? You're putting the amount of effort a COP band teacher-in-charge puts in. You say, Oh, there's O Level Oral going on. So cannot self-practice outside the Band Room right? OK FINE. Then what about opening the band room itself?!?! Your answer to that is still that there are the O Levels going on?!?!
THEN HOW THE BLOODY SHIT ARE YOU ABLE TO STILL HAVE COMBINED BAND PRACTICES ON DAYS WITH O LEVELS ORALS?!?!
TELL ME THE ANSWER TO THAT YOU SILLY ADULTS. GIVE ME A GOOD REASON WHY MY JUNIORS CANNOT BE GIVEN THE SAME RIGHT TO PRACTICE IN THE ROOM AS THEY HAVE DURING BAND PRACTICE. TELL ME THAT AND GIVE A DIFFERENT METHOD TO IMPROVE THEM AND THE REST OF THE BAND, AND MAYBE I'LL STOP ASKING.
Bloody teachers. I've had enough blogging for today.

Actually not very long lah, but seems so to me.
So, today I went to Toa Payoh sports hall to see the grading. Got there so happens they just started. hahahahaha. Saw Alene's pattern, damn good for her grade la, most likely double one. haha. Jes and Mel the pattern also good sia. Can't believe I was teaching these two blur girls the very steps just 2 months ago. hahaha.
So, after their grading was over, with all the cold sweat evaporating and all, the three of us and Charles went to Toa Payoh central to eat. Wah those two girls ah, very indecisive. Delifrance dun have that potato-thingy, then leave go Mac eat. hahaha wth. So anyway, we went to Mac eat and we were testing each other on those lame games which have no relevance to what they seem to be. Haha.
After that Charles had to leave to give tuition. hahaha so Jes Mel and me went to walk around Toa Payoh Central aimlessly. hahaha. In the end we decided to go PS watch movie. But went there saw no nice movie to watch. hahahaha Mel's fault. hahahaha. So we ended up in the ARCADE. haha Weird right? Hahah ended up playing Bishi-Bashi Champ. Obviously I won. I dun have fast hands for nothing. hahahahahahahahaha egoegoegoego.
Anyway, after that we went down to the basement and walkwalkwalkwalkwalkwalk until Jes foot cramped. Did quite alot of weird things before we finally decided to eat at Yoshinoya. hahaha.
Damnit, I eat the Yoshinoya in Singapore right, totally cannot compare with Japan one. That one really damn shiok, here one might as well tapao bring home heat up in microwave. Like KFC Banditto. hahahaha.
Anyway, after eating, and much talk, we went to Marina Bay Superbowl. Then WTH! No lane available... So put my name on the waiting list and that bowlfish dragged the both of us into the Arcade at the side to play more bashing-the-buttons games. Then Jes fingers became sore at that point.
Then we played Panic Park also like siao. The both of them keep pushing me to the edge even before the stage start. hahaha wth. And when the both of them play right, lucky the people around us were quite considerably far away, cos I think the Bowling Alley Snack Bar people also can hear. hahahaha.
So after that we went to check the lanes, and got one. Bowled until hand pain. hahahaha then we went out to take bus back to Marina Bay MRT, then FISH! The Bus just left. So what do we do? We went back to the arcade to play summore bashing games. hahaha. By that time I think Jes hands become like kiam chai liao whack so hard. Poor thing.
So, after yours truly won several more rounds of bashing, we finally caught a bus back to the MRT, then a train to Taka. Not the jewelry brand, the shopping mall. Went to delifrance there, see no potato, left again..... Finally ended up in KFC.
Hahaha so finally we sat down for damn long and eat talk eat talk. Then finally we took the train back home. Jes was so tired she slept for most of the journey. She's still up explaining maths to her friend as I'm typing this lor. So hardworking sia. I outside of school only work I do is stupid WRTORAL. And THAT'S really stupid kind of work.
Alright, that's the end of my sunday, 9th of july. hahaha good night everybody!
