Sleepyhead
Dunno why i'm so sleepy today... maybe cos of some weird dream i had last night...
Went to school for just one mass tutorial to copy ans... had no idea how to do and wat the lecturer was teaching... actually intended to stay in sch to study for tml's stats test... but in the end i went towards the busstop to take the bus home after lunch... slept on the bus... n contined sleeping upon reaching home...
I need to study... but my mind is wandering away...

Expect the unexpected?
Went for harmoc annual general meeting (AGM) to get my 50% subsidy for the $175.50 harmoc n to look look see see with bel bel... if i've known the way the exco is chosen, i've choosen to go home instead lor! I attended the meeting as a normal member, nv expecting that i'll walk out as part of the exco, being the welfare coordinator!? Har?? Someone who's not good at organising outings and plan fun events... hmmm
Basically, i think all newcomers who went for the AGM walked out with a position... me dunno kenna arrowed to go out how many times... n managed not to get voted by not marketing myself... until the last post of the welfare came and i'm the only newcomer amongst the nominees present... somehow or other, they were very eager to let newcomers take on the role and this is how i become part of the exco despite saying "u shld not vote for me!". My senior standing beside me was like telling me, hey, say u want the post la... i help u think of good answers for the qns -_-...
This is really so unexpected... it happened so quickly that i dunno how to react... quite lost now actually... but then i shld also be glad in a way as this is considered the most slack post in the exco liao. N since the responsibility is given to me, i shld try my best to fulfill the duty, and treat it as a learning experience bah... sounds so cliched... hahaz..
Will upload pics from harmoc concert at a later time!

Harmonica Concert
Harmoc concert is over liao... Monday and friday evenings now belongs to me! Thanks to all who came... Sheen, Si Ling, Kar boon, meng meng, toot toot and hui hui! Thanks for the sunflower and the rose too =)
The day kinda went by in a blur today... intended to either iron clothes or watch abit of webcast... in the end did neither cos cos drag here drag there... then it's time to shower and go to sch alr...
Met Jing Min and we reached UCC at ard 145pm like dat? Then dunno wat we do also... just slack ard in the dressing room n read magazines.Then it was practise, photo taking session n resting time... i was quite hungry by then... so we went outside to dome cafe n i bought a hotdog bun... then we sit at the courtyard for awhile and chit chat... n see the people for another performance rehearsing... haha... it kinda gives me the suria channel feeling... like wat i will see when i happen to channel surf at ard 6 plus in the evening.
Then not long after that our dinner arrived liao... we cont to sit outside n eat... i nv ate much cos it wasn't very appetising... n i've learnt my lesson from one of the last practice... not to eat too much cos it's horrible to feel bloated while blowing harmoc!
After which got to change into the uncomfy costume again n went for warm up... before the real performance... n it was so horrible that the curtains were not closed cos the chairs were too forward alr! So we actually went on stage to sit down n look at the audience arriving... i was searching very hard, trying to spot my frens but couldn't see them... n they couldn't see me too... haha...
The lights finally dimmed for the performance n i felt more comfortable cos i can't see the audience anymore... Very fast 1st half ended n we actually went outside to meet our friends during intermission... tat's when i saw sheen, si ling, meng n toot... hurriedly took a pic with meng before rushing back again.
Since the curtains were open... must walk onto stage properly... n soon 2nd half of the concert was also over le wor... It seems like so fast lor... as compared to practise we blow for so long... haha.
Took pictures for the day but i shall post them at a later date... after i asked everyone for the pics... meanwhile, here's 2 pics of the day.
 Sheen, Me, Kar Boon n Si Ling
 Bel, Toot, Me, Meng n Hui

I'm back... i realise i haven been blogging as much lately...
Anyway, the harmoc concert is like in less than 18 hours time? Never really have any 'real' stage performance before... Unless i consider those in primary sch time... n once in sec sch bah...
Primary school was go up to stage and perform an item during national day celebration or on last day of school prize giving day. I can remember blowing 'you r my sunshine' n edelwiss' on the recorder as a class... and singing along to a song running on the cd with actions and gestures... can remember singing the song 'reach' in p5 and ' xi shui chang liu' in p6, the very last day of school.
As i grew older, i became more and more uncomfortable in front of an audience bah... i rem in sec 1, i joined this workshop with cinda n pingyee... some workshop teaching us sing and dance... n at the end of the course we had to perform during school assembly. We were like absolutely hating it and wondered y we joined the darn thing in the 1st place... For one, i didn't like the instructor... n i somehow dreaded the idea of having to perform back then... i can still rem cinda telling me that one thing she regretted doing that yr was to join the workshop. Come to think of it now, i can still faintly recall the tune and lyrics of the songs we sang.
After that performance, i think i never went up to stage for performance again le... even if i did, it must be something minor which i cannot recall. haha... Luckily for tml... i am not sitting in front... I am not so good to be able to sit in front also lah... hehe... will be sitting at the 3rd row near the side... n least got some "an quan gan"...
I think i better go to sleep alr... Need to have more energy for the concert at night.

Grades
Sometimes i wonder if worrying too much abt grades is being shallow... Scoring well for a subject/ module/ major exam doesn't mean i can apply what i noe on paper to the real world... for the real situation isn't as ideal as what u write down on the piece of paper...
Sighz... even as i say all these... i am disturbed by the tests... n the possible grades for the modules this sem =(. Frustrated by all the equations in physical chem... the industrial processes in cm1161 and all those mechnisams/reaction conditions that i cannot rem in organic chem...
Bio is worrying too but i am more concerned with chem... screwing up core modules is a nightmare! It better not happen...

Bus 151 that went the wrong way n other stuff
This is the 1st time i encounter a bus that went the wrong route... it has been like ard 1 month since i've been regularly taking 74 and then transfer to bus 151 to get to sch... the route for bus 151 is that it shld turn into NUS at the UCC entrance...
And so this morning i pressed the bell before the bus reach UCC entrance... but the bus nv turn in... instead it went straight and stopped at the busstop outside SDE... like the bus 96 route... at 1st i tot maybe i boarded the wrong bus.. maybe there's a 151A with a diff route... haha... but in the end the uncle realised that he went the wrong way... thus he took down the number plate... n then proceeded to turn into NUS via the arts entrance... still ask if anybody wanna alight at the arts busstop... in the end i alighted opposite forum... which is better cos it's easier to get a bus there to go to sci. Lucky it's only a trival error... imagine a bus going the wrong route on the expressway or something!
Anyway... the crazy week is coming... i realised i counted the wrong date for cm1121... but the test date was still brought forward from the original plan =( So next wk goes like this... Tues cm1131 test, thurs cm1161 test... n it so happen that harmoc prac next mon is changed to tues... so i supposedly will have time to mug on monday night... n then harmoc concert will be on sat... n cm1121 test on the following monday.... busy busy busy busy!!
Had full dress rehearsal for harmoc today n did the 2nd sound recording... i can't believe that the concert is only next saturday!! Oh gosh! Anyway, the costume for gals really sucks... long black dress... machiam wanna cover me from head toe... somemore the dress is so long i might just trip n fall over while walking in it.
Come to think of it... it's quite an irony that i was thinking of changing CCA last sem... cos going back to learn harmoc on my free day was v sian... n it was more of lessons rather than cca.. then dec came n we went for camp... noe more pple... started learning concert songs n got v lost... then sch reopened for sem 2 n it was the tough 2 practices per week schedule until now.
There were times when i was v sian during practice... when i can't follow, no mood to follow... times when i can follow, can blow n enjoy myself... i also cannot figure out the reason y sometimes i can, sometimes i cannot... hehe.... like today i can follow most of the time... except for blowing wrong notes a couple of times =P... more importantly is, will i be ready when next sat comes?

The shopping experience at watsons...
Took a little break from fretting about school by going to town today... met meng n zhen hui at 3 and then toot joined us for dinner.
Had a little 'trumatising' experience while at taka watsons... i wanted to buy a tube of the Watsons brand foot lotion as sherlyn said that it's quite effective... n it's also relatively cheaper... after grabbing the tube and intending to browse ard for awhile before making payment... i was suddenly interrupted by a sales promoter... And this is how it goes after translation...
Promotor (P): "Hey, why dun u use this body scrub, it's very effective and has got better ingredients than the one you're holding... why don't you take a look at it yourself "blah blah blah... I wasn't very keen on listening... she just took a tube, squeezed abit out for me to smell, and thrusted it into my hand... Me:"It's ok." Tries to put the body scrub back. The promoter never gave up, die die also want me to buy... i think she mistaken my foot lotion for foot scrub... goes on to say that the product is v good... it's on the advertisements, can use for body n foot as well... I was quite desperate to siam from her alr... Me:Actually i'm buying foot lotion, not foot scrub... P:Oh, we also have our brand of foot lotion. Proceeds to show me another food lotion brochue. Me:I used this product before and i dun think it's effective. This is partly true... i used the product before, though not regulary enough. But i am really not interested. P:When was it that u use it, did u wear those kind of home slippers blah blah blah... u nv do this nv do that of cos it's not effective. I go and take the thing for you to see..
It's ok if you're an enthusiatic promoter... i noe that you have to make a living for yourself too... I just find the promoter kind of aggressive and i dun like to be 'forced' into buying things. N so i quickly walked off when the promoter when to take the product... it's bad but i've alr told her that i'm not interested to look at the product... if she insists, i can't help it too... i am so afraid of seeing her that i decided to go to another watsons to buy my lotion... Had to ask zhen hui to help me put the lotion back to the original place.
Got the few items i wanted to buy today... new highlighters... new earphones to replace the the lousy quality one i bought sometime back n the foot lotion, bought at wisma atria's watson...

I actually tot of trying to pen down something but my brains ain't really working to write down anything meaningful... so i guess i'll leave it to another time.
