it's been such a nice, relaxed week, despite the proximity to the prelims. probably because it's only a 4 day week too, seeing as how the band girls will be leaving class at sodding 8am tmr to load the percussion instruments into the moving vans.

i can hear it now, loud and clear. the End of band, calling... and hey, i'm not an anti-band sort of person. just the anti-waking-up-at-godforsaken-hours-on-a-saturday sort.

am going to rather miss it, collectively (except the early hours, duh?) and not used to popping in and out of a group so fast, 3 years playing for the band proper is a very short time. and i wish we could play mononoke one last time before my batch leaves. playing it was the thing that first got me started on Ghibli actually.

i'm glad i joined the band. if given another choice, i'd still be here. i've learnt so much, from Mr Chan, Mr Sim, the tutors and some seniors... many thanks, from the bottom of my heart. i'll carry band memories for a long time to come.

to any band person reading this (though i doubt any are): the most important thing is to have fun and feel the music. don't let bad practices get you down. and if you're leaving too; we sure had some fun times huh?

enough reminiscing.

am inexplicably feeling a tad fed up now. i had a really good day though. successful physics test, except for one forgotten formula. odd sort of conversation with yen yi. lame jokes flying at me left right centre, i was actually in the middle of the corridor at one point, with my head between my knees; nii-san, can i keep him? / cooo..! rosie, chan, i can hear you howling from here...

also had coffee with that bunch, the usual: bern, chan, electra, rosie and vanessa. now have plans to meet every month or so, we always have such a good time at these gatherings. and someone else will have to buy coffee the next time, money does not grow on trees, you know?

just for the fun of it, i'll add bern's famous Confucius saying: a man, with hand in pocket is feeling a little cocky.

do wish you could have come though, jenny. it would be nice for you and electra to meet. have i mentioned how much i like that girl? and i'm very sorry for making you wait today!! oh yarh, and how was hanuman (i dunno how to spell it)?

hey adam! not leaving, just disappearing for a bit. thanks for the concern and the offer yeah? anyway, i'll still be around the place and am probably coming for whatever christmas thing ya'll are having in church. erm, not doing midnight mass this year right?

nice of you to drop by electra. would you mind when i -eventually- find my way to your blog?

Tor,
Damn. You. To. The. Abyss. Coincidentally, i was actually talking to my friend abt you today, said you're in london. she said,'she must be having alot of fun?' and i stupidly said,'no lah, study where got fun?' and now this. even with 5 packets of raw sugar coursing though my system now i'm not going to waste any effort screaming because of you. you know mum doesn't want to you go right (duh, it's mum)? yarh, like that matters!

can you not list precise things out like that? it's very distracting and i don't even know if i'll be flying there or not. you think money drop from sky?

it's the red shirt we got, i think 2 years back. the long sleeved one that fits well. i wouldn't be caught dead in your purple/pink top. what the hell possessed you to buy that thing anyway? and how can you miss bolbol when you're with it..?

by the way, i have a character in mind whom you could possibly cosplay... fruits basket anyone?

bah. since am having no lessons tmr think i'll go finish the Naked Empire. and nick is right, i really want to slap jenssen... or for that matter, the idiot owen...
