SYF. What is the purpose of SYF in the first place? Does SYF mean everything? Who has the right to judge the performing grps in SYF? Why are random ppl selected to judge SYF instead of professionals from a particular field?

It was super pissing that cedar guzheng ensemble got SILVER when they deserve at least a GOLD, in fact, a GOLD WITH HONOURS! They did incredibly well! Super neat, expressive and with feelings! Even zhang lao shi said that this batch of gals hv the most potential in the entire cedar guzheng’s history! But the judges disagreed. And one of the reasons they gave for giving cedar guzheng ensemble silver was that there is a lack of percussion! OMGGGG!!! HELLO THIS IS A GUZHENG ENSEMBLE COMPETITION, NOT CHINESE ORCHESTRA! For ur info, cedar DOES NOT hv CO n so how can we produce a gong, timpanis n other CO instruments?! U mean we hv to buy those instruments specially for GUZHENG SYF??!! Totally ridiculous! Not only do we think that cedar guzheng ensemble deserve at least a gold, other schs think so too! RAHHH!

Anw the results are alr announced n theres nth we can do. It rly saddens me when I see the disappointed faces of my jnrs. C’mon! It’s not ur fault ppl! U’ve put in ur best effort n done well! We’re very proud of u guys alr! Really. So don’t ever give up hope on the nxt SYF! Keep ur heads up high n continue fighting! Show the cedar spirit k! CEDAR GUZHENG ALL THE WAY!! =)

once again the wk has flown past me, but with a faster speed this time. guess its becos of the increasing number of band pracs this month. band prac has increased from twice a wk to thrice, to four times n now theres band prac EVERYDAY except for sunday. and worse still, band prac is at NIE sometimes. so i'll hv to travel for 1+ hrs home each day. then i'll reach home at 10+pm. and now that NIE pracs are ending at 9+pm, i think i'll be reaching home at 11pm this few wks zzz. i hate gg home late! kinda freaky n lonely n tiring! o.O hahaha.

band has kind of a new rule recently, that is to put aside studies for this 2+wks n focus on our SYF. its like, when once we reach home from NIE band prac, we're supposed to bathe, eat and slp! no mugging is allowed. need to get plenty of rest and chiong band the nxt day again! cool huh! how i wish life will be like that everyday. but 2 wks is better than nth heh. so i shall focus on band from now on and hv ample rest! mugging can wait! shall be a mugger again after SYF =)
speaking of mugging, h3 final paper is coming up. bleah i dunno what the hell is matrices all abt! why did i even take up matrices in the first place man! what a joke! but at least roddy kok is kind enough to give extra lessons to help us catch up with our work. he rox man! but then again, we hv to work hard on our own. rahhh! so much work to do!

A whole lot of things coming up. Much rolling to prac and I hv to improve on my style! Ah ho says I’ve got no style heh. I shall act cool from now on. More expressions! =) ciao!

its good that things are remaining this way =)

update.

right, its another busy busy wkend, so busy that i rly dunno what to start on. i also look fwd towards wkends. not cos i dun hv to wake up early to go to sch or sth, but becos its a time to rest n catch up with my tuts. yea, jc life is tough. i meant, its mugging, mugging n MORE mugging. maybe jocelyn is right afterall, theres no life in a jc. if i were given another choice, i wld hv withdrawn from a jc n gone to a poly like what she did. but its too late! since im stucked in a jc, i think i shld rly surrender to my fate n start mugging. common tests results sux. grades all the same as promos. only passed math -.- econs results not out yet but i guess i'll get an U. i din study for it la.

yea n im gg for phy tuition zzz. n the phy tutor is like, i dunno what to say. he said light energy is not continuous but discrete. n the analogy that he gave was that, light energy is not laosai, its like pangsai =.= like a shit analogy lehh! but ok la, at least i can rmb that pt. oh and that reminds me of the phy lectuter on quantum phy. THAT ZOOM-IN GUY! he keeps zomming in on the notes n when we said we cant see, he said that everything is in our notes HAHAHAHA. that funny guy. he is like gg thru quantum phy at the speed of light at 3 x 10^8 m/s! rahh self revision on quantum for me!

oh oh oh! NIGHT HIKE ROCKSSS!!! we had night hike on fri night. like hike thru macritchie reservoir n bukit timah nature reserve to bukit panjang? COOL MAN! felt a great sense of achievement upon completion! =) although it was rather similar to the day hike during yltc last yr, but the ppl who went thru the hikes with me were different!

yltc - hiked with our 5-day stuffs with a SLING BAG (haha stupid me) n 3 litres of water with rly hiong ppl. fri's hike - relaxing n fun with a relatively light bag which contains only clothes, food n 1.5 litres of water n with FUN ppl!!! =) hahaha we talked nonstop from the macritchie bus stop to the middle of macritchie reservoir. then the conversations start to lessen as tiredness n sleepyness set in. basically, we din rly see anything throughout the hike. just mud, mud n MORE mud hahaha. cos it rained in the afternoon, then the floor was totally wet n muddy. a frog actually jumped past me in the middle of the trail la! yucks!

then there were stations n we hv to complete the tasks. a few memorable stations: 1) solo night hike without torches! scary lehh! but no choice, hv to complete it. 2) we had to put our hands into this box to find a stone. they din tell us whats inside the box. just said the things inside are harmless. kyan felt sth long. n she said confidently that they were noddles cos she was sure that they wldnt be so cruel to put worms inside. then after they showed us whats inside, kyan screamed la! guess what? they were mealworms! n kyan grabbed a whole bunch of them cos she was rly sure that they were noodles! o.O haha i dun seem to touch anything long lehh! weird. the other stations were ok la, or maybe i forgot abt them.

not bad la, it was the first time that I stayed awake throughout the night. like watch the world gg to slp n waking up for a brand new day again. felt qt tired at abt 3-4am. but after seeing ppl waking up to go to work so early, I felt so energized again. feels like I’ve just woken up too! yea my ankle felt terrible after the whole hike, but it was worth it la. first n last night hike I guess hahaha. went for band prac right after night hike. regretted. its just the one person that spoilt my whole prac. not in my best performance. went for band prac cos I dun hv a reason to not go for it. haha dun see the pt of gg when my body is there but not my soul n spirit. yupp yupp, syf is coming n im still so not prepared for it sighs.

right, h3 test nxt wk. haha found this rly cute thing in charissa’s blog:

start to pour water(+1) into your mug!
water = H20+1 = -0+1
so, H20 -0 + 1 = H3
START MUGGING H3!!

cool huh! =)
