What a close shave. I was so close to retaining. But thank god I made it through. Never knew it felt so nice to be promoted. Hoorah! Actually pretty glad that my studying did pay off. Shows that it helped. Got much more to catch up in terms of school work. No more slacking!

Band life is still pretty much hectic. Same usual stuff. Wonder when I can really take a break. Perhaps breaks time will be when I’m at Thailand. Really look forward to the trip. SHOPPING SPREE!!! After that will have more time for other stuff. Continue driving lessons and do my own self practice before more band pressure arrives. Solos, conducting and management. Work work…

; keeping up with life, continue to strive

Been light-years since I last blogged. Most of the major stuff has been dealt with. No more Chinese and no more Project Work. This is probably the best time to take a breather. Chinese class chalet was yesterday and it was kind of fun. Though I couldn’t stay due to auditions today. Got to actually know these folks better but only after finishing chinese. Ahh the irony of life.

Had honour band audition today. Totally got owned due to unpreparedness, my lagging A flat key (which was fine at Maris Stella practice), F# minor scale and handwritten scores that are very hard to see. No hope of getting into honour band. Met Springsfield there too. Been awhile. Apparently the whole ACJC band is auditioning. I already got owned by the AC flautist who imba-ly played Mozart in D and Carnival of Venice. My Telemann stands no chance seriously.

Still have a few things on my To-Do-List. This should be the right time to pack my room which looks like it was the site for world war 2. Got to really catch up with my freaking studies. Well I won’t really bother if I know I’m retaining. But the retarded school just keeps dragging the results release date. Its time to resume with my driving too. At the rate I’m going, I’ll never pass by early next year. Practicing goes on as usual for the Thailand trip with Maris Stella Alumni Band and Philharmonic Youth’s Classiques concert. TPJC band resumes next week as well in preparation for the JC/Poly band fest. A couple more concerts to attend, maybe go for the dance performance as well. Not forgetting having to teach teach teach. Kids nowadays are totally getting more and more irritating. Argh the terror.

; Your assumptions, My hypothesis

I’ll defend my pride

With all my might

I’ll work through the night

To not lose this fight

I’ll follow the light

And prove that I’m right

I’ll put my ego aside

So that my aim stays in sight

; Ain’t no energizer bunny, Can’t always stay sunny

Finally done with WR. Thank god. Been so stressed up by it recently. Not to mention that I put in the most effective effort. Life is unfair. Taking a breather before OP stuff starts. So many tasks ahead. But just a bit more yihao and all the remaining task will seem more of an enjoyment. Now let me do some chain frosting.

Tasks ahead: Chinese A lvl, Oral presentation, Band practices, Flute tutoring, Driving lessons, FTT, Thailand trip, TPJC band fest, Phil youth concert.

; with some basic intelligence, I swear it isn’t difficult

I HATE ROUTINES. I need a change in my life. I need new additions to spur me on. But I can’t go about finding interesting things to do. Simply because I have no time. And so I’m stuck in this pathetic cycle. Doing the same things over and over. Project work is killing me. Fresh ideas are expected at every component when I’ve basically used up all my brain cells thinking of those ideas in the previous components. How the heck am I suppose to come up with more. Curses… Whoever decided that my capability and intelligence should be judged in this manner. Screw you. I strongly believe I’m much smarter than the people who came up with this nonsense. I will earn my bucks and live on an island of my own. You watch out. Till then, I have no choice but to continue with this dreaded task.
