time flies

again, lots of things juz flew by since the last post.

a crisis is on the loom with the h1n1 influenza, schools shutting down one by one. surprisingly SP is not really affected badly.. hope it continues to stay that way. with the number of cases rising and the majority are below the age of 20 its beginning to get outta hand. throughout all the mayhem, the exodianz sufferred badly with thier concert cancelled. i havent been back since coz they dun even know whens their next prac. the same thing goes for peixin(yishun) pri.. last time i went was sir's birthday. been occupied with SP symphonic and jazz band.

im doing fine in SP. band is really fun and we're preparing for our concert I Believe in Music (IBM) on the 26th of july 5pm. interested drop me a message luh. hung out with bandmates most of the holidays. the last two weeks were bandless, kinda boring but we've been going back to sch( for me a 45min ride to and fro) and revising for the last week of holidays for the MSTs. currently im halfway there, 3 papers down, final 2 in my way. the bad thing is, C Prog paper is finally tmr. GG.... thermo's the very last paper. that ones still managable. anyhow, my classmates are great peeps too, though we could be a lil more serious most of the time.. haha. we're pretty united luh and help each other out whenever we can.. very open too. all guys wats there to hide. haha.

with poly life pretty hectic im kinda pushing aside my church choir buddies. been missing pracs and stuff.. uhh,,, gotta be more insightful. plan my schedules properly.. and not let my decisions be swayed by other factors.. we got our own project to finish up. the recruitment for the choir is to be on the 12th and we're gonna prepare a few songs and the youths are the main ones to attract other youths.. we need new blood. haha. pray for things got go well and progress smoothly for everyone.

ahhhh... almost midnight. i really am strugglin to juz focus fully for Cprog.. im almost driven to desperation or juz plain wanna give up on this module. i wont say im not exactly horrible. but when i panic everything goes blank and for this particular module, the chances are extremely high that it may occur. quoting from roger, "screwed like a potato on a salad stick"

choing! still got hope. haaha... need lots of luck.. -ugh-

confidence. or indifference.

i need to discipline myself. badly.

gotta put that extra effort in lectures. esp for the cprog module, even if the teacher can be quite a bitch at times. quizzes arent done, like for the one i just mentioned, along with post math and OH GOSH, the essay.

damn.

here i am wasting time and effort, typing away.

i wish i could stop time. or escape into an alternate dimension where a whole day i spend would only result in an hour passing by. i really really want more time to prepare myself for the auditions coming sun and mon, national winds and sp jazz band respectively.

i finally found time to try out the alto i borrowed from st gabs band yesterday, and i clearly lack playing time. ive been playing the tenor too for the past month, embouchure is forgotten. the last time i blew an alto was late january, (i consider only playing as a band, a proper practice) with cjc band. desperately need getting used to.

whats more, ive yet to select a piece for either auditions. ARGH!
need lots of help!

prayer!

its been a while too since the last post. lots of things has passed. school's been a month and im really into my course i guess. and birthday came too. had friends come over for a dinner/feast with the famly at home. pretty simple celebration but was real pleasure and great enjoyment.
dyed my hair as well though it aint too obvious. had band camp last weekend. it was... messy. but again a great time. got to know most of the bandmates and the games were okay luh. just wished didnt get that many forfeits on the first night... ugh.

in two more weeks it'll be the holidays, though it might be more of a study break. the mid sems test are on the first week back. darn! study study study hard brey!

thats all for now. all the best for the auditions. be confident or go through the whole process with a single thought, clear of all worries and emotions and whatever. like an android. hahahahaha.

nah, too extreme.

good luck..

Surprise!

it was pure joy.
fist pumping in the air.
guys screaming hysterically, dancing about right in front of the judges
who cares?

Gold.

congrats Exodus Band, y'all deserved this, Mr Lin deserved this, it was all through everyone's efforts to want success going to Exodus. Im proud to have been part of this band. its a wonderfully crazed pyscho group of boys performing miracles. hahah.( thats coz we always chiong at the end)

now that we have achieved this Gold, we gotta maintain the standard at least, but more or less look to set the bar even higher.

so continue to attend prac regularly luh.
cya all. take care!

EXODUS RULES

short.

band camp..

update the details some other time..

now using the sch com..

i miss my bed.. heh

but band camps arent too bad

grow up

who am i.

i seek the answer to my true self.

Hear My Prayer O Lord, And Let My Crying Come Unto Me.

Come Unto Me.

falling. failing?

2009 has been quite rough for me so far. i need to change myself as all the flaws in my character have caused chaos.

laziness will be the death of me.

i feel out of place whenever i visit the guys at st gab's band. i dunno how to help or improve my own section. i cant even play well anymore nor do i know wat it is that they could do to sound better, im not a hundred percent sure how to guide them. sometime i feel like im juz there to kill time. i miss playing the most. i find joy in performing with friends during concerts. letting them enjoy listening to us.the success we share when we go for competitions like the syf. and juz hanging out together, fooling around.

really miss it so much.

i also havent been taking care of my body much. im already rather average in height and i cant seem to sleep early and have long peaceful hours of rest. stupid habit needs to go. im bloody heavy too. my weight exceeds the appropriate rang for my damn bloody short of length from head to toe,.

screw that. lazybug has fully invaded my system, im falling apart bit here and there.

gotta pull myself together. school's starting in a month, gotta be serious now.

im on the ground. i fell, time to pick me self up. failed here and there, time to get something right somewhere.

speaking of falling.. i dunno if i have.. or its juz one of them lil jokes called infatuations..

damn these crushes to the heart. like i wanna hav more things at night to keep me awake.

if i were to mention to you three words. as you gave me some comfort in my life. shared part of yourself. and allowed me to do the same. would this juz break away and reveal itself as juz my imagination..? im scared. a coward. i'll hang on to this for now.

slow and easy

at the moment i wish the days could pass by more quickly.. but things are quite fine the way it is.. i kinda gave up on the sales job that AK and i tried out for.. so now i spend my free time helping out the band.

their syf is on the first day, band number 5, juz after the interval... there aint much time left.. but i believe they could just pull it off. Gabrielites generally always 'chiong' when it comes to exams and competitions.. heh..

going back and watchin them practice makes me miss playing in the band a lot. it isnt the same sitting there and giving a few pointers here and there. though at times, yes the practices do get dull. playing the same thing over and over.. the reward is fantastic, totally cancels out watever negative feeling.. haha

if the attitude is there, you can achieve just about anything.. a friend of mine was so determined and set his mind to run 10km daily. went through this routine for 3 months and dang, he looks in real great shape.. 30 kg burned mind you... heh.

haha.. now i should really stop being too lazy..

tired mind

i am unable to have a proper sleep cycle. i find myself constantly going to bed past midnight. whenever i try to fall asleep earlier, itoss and turn as i attempt to drown out thoughts that appear. my mind keeps generating situations of 'what if?' its driving me mad. thus i counter this by going to bad when im sure my mind is really worn out, and once i hit the sack, i just drift into a less peaceful state of rest. sometimes i do not feel tired enough and here i go again, pick up a book to get that sleepy feeling.then i rise from my slumber round mid day. i wanna take sleeping pills to force myself to revert to a better sleep cycle (if i ever did in the first place) im getting sick of doing nothing each day too. i kinda miss the schedules that shape each day of my life. my body and mind is used to waking up getting dressed for sch going through lessons at this time of the year. hmm, weird.. that makes me sound like i miss sch. maybe.i know i miss playing in band. playing on the alto. im too used to that routine. i may be lazy and have some sort of happy go lucky attitude, but i don't think i would go that far. i feel absoulutely like a slob. the pc games are addictive and do help kill of time. but thanks to my parents upbringing, i do not feel that much of a-dick-tive towards these form of escape from the present. id rather play them than do nothing. i can go out too. but then most of the ppl i know are in school.. or working.. Ahh- i could have found a job. yeah, but due to a chain of events which so far made me feel the BIGGEST loser of this whole affair, im relying on parents for the spare cash to spend. recently i revived my bike. brought it out for a spin. i welcome the exercise, my body seem to have forgotten the physical pleasures excessive movements that causes all that sweat to make clothings sling to skin, the odour that comes soon after, relief of accomplishment, and hammering of a fistsized muscle-balloon against ribs. as though one is blindly hitting a xylophone. i want to play the guitar but i know i am limitedly skilled. singing songs alone make me feel as though im deranged. choir is good. though somewhat i get this feeling, umcomfortable. theres also 'that' feeling.. wont mention it at all. -pass- hmm... ive been on facebook so often that its getting irritating. esp with lots of the status reminding more of 'what if?' i used to play on the xbox while it was still around. now its the laptop. reading is better but its hard to find stuff that will hold ur interest in the library. and to buy 'emat popular? why yes, $$$$$. im getting lazy that i can even change my mind easily when i told myself and friends we're going out on this day. pang seh ah? then i'd feel guilty and haul my lazy arse outta the door. sorry melv. now im sitting thinkung that i wanna go back to stgabs and check out the band's syf preparations.. but my lazyness is clouding the confirm button in my head. wahh.. somehow i think lots of this is caused by me still being a lil upset. i was hoping i could get into CJC. though the subject combo may suck and all, i know i can do pretty well. i keep telling myself screw that, but theres still that bitter taste in my mouth, no matter how many glasses of water i drain. gotta find something stronger then.. not wanting to stop typing on a flat key. i cant wait to start school i guess. aeronautical engineering seems preety cool. its the only thing that really sparked my interest aside the whole darn list of poly courses. and i got it at SP. that aint too bad.. its still about a month plus. thats a lot of time. no fun doing nuting and go waste it.

hmm.

bullcrap

when things don't go the way you wish it would. some say there's a reason behind it, that its part of a plan.

doesnt help numb the bittersweet disappointment that swelled up deep within. fuck that.
