Anyway, attachment is getting more stressful in a way. Gotta keep myseourselves busy and do something productive. Rainy days are coming, not a very good thing, but better than super strong sun. Mosquitoes are still driving me crazy. =.= My colleagues say it takes at least 1 year to get the number of bites reduce. wth?!
Okays.. and I really feel that the trekking boots is calling out to me saying :BUY ME! coz it's at half price which is 140bucks. Consider it a long term investment and hopefully I can make use of it by continuing to work there. =X Plus I can forsee that I may go trekking/backpacking next time too. It might just make tree climbing a little easier as the sole has more grip on the bark. Money not enough!
That's me up on the 1st branch of the Rain Tree. Got help onto the branch by another climber. Hope to climb again on Friday! =D

This will be the theme for World Youth Day 2008 at Sydney Australia. Anybody want to join me? Haha.. A journey in which might be a turning point to you and also to continue strengthening your faith with God. Price is not that expensive as compared to 2 wks of holidaying at the same destination. A price to pay but an experience with God in turn which is Priceless. All are welcomed. =D
I really want to go for this event. I don't know why, but somehow I feel strongly that I should go. Problem is there're things that are holding me back. 1: If I were to be working, how? I'm not sure when work will start and to take 2wks of leave in the beginning is not v. nice. Plus, there might be a important and big event preparation in that month.=\ but then again, if I were to go, it'll be planned and confirmed 9 months in advanced. 2ndly, What if I'll be studying? which I doubt so la.. but what if. If I study in Aust, it shld be fine, but if it's somewhere esle?
I know that everything will have an answer to it especially with God, everything will be fine.

Being a Botanist sounds very 'scientist'. Horticulture is like.. nothing much?
Attachment in Kew Garden (UK) sounds interesting. Courses in the morning and work in the afternoon, but $$$.=\ (Some Brit tourists asked us to come work there. U sponsor? haha..)
Have yet to check out Fairchild Botanic Garden (Florida).
Currently doing Aboriculture now. Tree Climbing lessons tomorrow. HAHA.. Weather better be good. =D
Ohh.. I needa stop buying things.. coz I dunno where my money has gone to.. and I haven't got my contact lenses.. lolz..=X
Plus.. I'm thinking if anymore of my close friends get attached, I think I'll be a loner soon.. lolz.. jkjk..=X Take Care Pple.. cya soon..=)

It is Really Not easy to maintain the National Orchid Garden (NOG). So if anyone of you were to visit NOG in the future, please appreaciate the effort and hard work. HAHA. 2ha of extremely high maintenance plants is really tough, but to see the effort being paid- off, it's a very good feeling.
Might have OT again next week, having a private function. Overnight? Possible, but will be very tired the next day. Might not be a wise decision, but that's not up to me.
Many Many things to think about. My Future!!
You know, sometimes it is best to remain single when you are unsure. We have friends for a reason. It is certainly not easy to maintain a good and long friendship, there'll be sacrifices, but it is how we handle them. Being with a bunch of close friends which you can hang out with will keep you occupied. It really helps. Some can lend a hearing ear and give advices. Just share. I'm really glad to have a group a friends which I can go out with and talk to. Even though I'm not their best friend or the closest bunch of friends. Hope to have one someday. =D

Another thing is, I realised that I'm not as direct as I was before. Weird huh. Be it things to do with the heart or general stuff. Is this for the better or for the worse? It just irritates me when someone doesn't understand me or don't get my point, but then I just can't shoot it out directly. Since when did I become 'softer'.
What I can say is... do not go overboard just because I don't bite as much as I used to.
I still think that love will find me rather that me trying to find it. But then again, when it comes, I can't be blinded either. Ohh well, I haven't been brooding over the pass too much now, thanks to the friends that are with me since our last year. I'm enjoying their company and it keeps me occupied. I just don't want to brood over UNsure things. I seriously hate mixed and confused signals, but I can't seem to say it straight out. What the hell is wrong with me. I haven been bothered for quite some time and it's hunting me again. The truth does hurt right? Staying single is still the best option when you're still unsure.
That's all for today... gg out.

Last thursday, we got to visit Changi Airport Terminal 3! It's really HUGE. walk till leg pain.. lols.. We were supposed to act lost, the fact that we were supposed to check in at T-3 instead of T2, and to make our way back to T3 in time for the flight.
Now, I'll be at NOG (National Orchid Garden), doing maintenance and landscaping. It's tiring, considering the weather.. drying me up. =.=" Supervising the workers.. etc. Tying of orchids on the tree barks.. somehow, it is fasinating to the tourists.. haha.. I was able to answer their questions though... =) Ooh.. some thought the Phalaenopsis flowers were fake....=\ Geez...Tying it up up wasn't easy. I wish I could try it again.. = Tying Oncidium is much easier coz it is smaller, lighter and easy to balance.

Went to watch the concert performance of Mozart's Le Nozzle di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro) at the Esplanade Concert Hall. It was performed by the world renown Vienna State Opera and Conducted by Seiji Ozawa.
I was so excited when I saw this perfomance in sistic website. The ticket was expensive even though it was student price, but the concert was GREAT! The only minus point was my seat is behind the performers... the orchestra was right below. When the prchestra is playing, I can't really hear the singers as they are singing towards the hall, I was behind, that's why.. But then, I think the performers realised that there are audiences at the back so, they sort of change their position at times, and we could hear much better and the subtitle screen was in front. Haha... =X Seriously the performance was good. I should learn up some Italian.. haha.. =X
The booklet is 'classy'. haha..!
I was a little surprised to see the concert go-ers all in formal attire. Female in dresses and Men in suits, some w/o the coat but with a tie. Luckily I wasn't wearing jeans and shirt. lols.. but blouse and pants.. lols.. coz I went straight from work. There were only a few youngsters like me (very few). Weird, but there are quite a number of Japanese, maybe they are fans of the conductor.. haha..=X
Anywayz, I was glad that I decided to go for the concert, despite the price and having to go alone. The performance is worth it. =D

But seriously, I can't imagine the pple potting the whole day, it's just plain boring. My friends up at NOG seems to have more work. I'll have my chance next month, gotta build up my body stamina... and it'll prolly be sunny next month too.. geeezz.. dun be surprised if I became a few shades darker.. lolz.. Nevertheless, it is a privilege to walk into NOG every morning on the way to work. Appreciating the orchids on display etc. =D
Besides being busy with my attachment, I have a performance coming up in 2 weeks. Been invited to perform with the SP Voices for their upcoming inaugural performance at VCH. Trying damn hard to find time to learn everything and MEMORISE everything. All because I was too slack b4 my attachment. =X I believe the concert will be good. The songs are great, the quality is better than you know.... and hopefully the external group I'm in will be able to perform the medley from a musical......although we're facing some doubts. It'll be a breakthrough.

These few days are seriously chaotic. There so many things to do, I just have no time for recreation. It is simply project, project, project. This week, 3 consecutive presentations in 3 consecutive days. Woah, I actually survived. o_O
My year 3 days are full of life. As in, it's fun, enjoy and laughter with may hardships. Well, there are times when things are really difficult, but I really learnt a lot, and I'm really grateful to have them with me.
This semester, ever since the classes were mixed due to the different electives we chose, both classes had been able to mix well, except for some people who are still in their own world. We seem to be more united even though we didn't speak much during our 1st two years. It is a great sight to see in class. =D We were also enthusiastic. Class BBQ, movies with different people. We just mix around, and we got to know each other better. Well, knowing each other's flaws and good points. Lots of ups and downs we faced, different political issues, hmm.. well we been through it together, we survived. I saw the unity in us. (still except for some.)
Sigh, we're all going on our IAP in 3 weeks, we won't see each other much. However busy we might be, we must meet up yea. Birthdays (=X), gatherings, movies... =D

Hang in there!!! I can do it!!! =D

Ok, now on a personal thought. Sometimes helping a friend with personal problems (you know what I mean.) can be quite tricky, especially when I'm a girl and that friend is a guy. I know that I only lent my listening ears, which means I've nothing to do with anything including the decision making. The tricky part is you never know what the outcome will be like even though I've got nothing to do with it. I definately Do Not want to be pulled in. Why I'm saying this? coz I've been through. =)

Alright. My earpiece died on me. At 1st I still can listen to minus-1 music, now.. not even a single sound. Arghh....=( Sigh.... Now.. I should save up and invest in a good and nice earpiece which is suitable for my ears.
Stick to Creative? or venture out to other brands?? hmmm.. Gotta go check them out. Budget Budget!

Twice in 2 months. Is that fate or just misfortunate.
I'm not being negative about it, I just somehow feel that my that life hasnt been really fair till this point, or rather in this few years. I should be alright.. u noe since the more negative impact one has happened so this one shouldn't be that bad. But like I've said, I have my own barriers to overcome.
But seriously, WHY before a major performance. Sighh... How many times must this happen. How many times must I go through these. I'm beginning to have fear which I think is negative.
God knows why.
It once again proves that All Men Are the Same.
Singlehood is still best but that's only when those things are Out of the Picture.
This is so complicated.
Trust me, I'm alright. I will be. You shouldn't worry. Just worry about me being able to overcome my internal barriers because I wouldn't want the same fate as the other. I have my lesson learnt so have you. Myabe more sensitive next time.
I appreciate it.

What the hell are you talking about man...
No wonder things sucks with these pple around:
pple who seem to get offended with everything u do, they just dun like u. period. and they dunno how to forgive and forget and start anew.
pple who are totally ignorant of everything that is around them. who has the ability to solve things but cant be bothered about it.
pple who do things which makes pple think its nice, but actually its not exactly tt nice.
pple who neglect things when they haf other things to commit.
(tis i understand, sort of since i've been thru b4.)
A person does makes a lot of difference.
C'mon, u dun control the world yea. let's just say i'm out for now. =)

I thought Settler's Cafe might be more "posh" but it's not exactly that way. =X Anyway, we played The Settler's of Canaan, introduced by my colleague. Great game, but I didn't really excel. haha..=X After that we played monopoly. A pity that they do not have the latest Singapore's version of Monopoly and our school Library has it. =\ Ok.. Monopoly wasn't as fun within our group as compared to my friends. =X I thought The Settlers of Canaan was more exciting in our group. =) Had a great laugh! HAHA. Glad that I joined you'all today, though my luck isn't with me today.=\ We should organise this kinda thing more often especially on public holidays. =X
Went back home an hour later than expected. Shocked to see my house door locked to the gate. I thought that my parents were angry that I didn't come home as early as I'd said so they lock them, but as I walked closer, I saw those writings of loanshark on the door. I was puzzled that the storey number written was different, although the unit number is the same. I panicked for a
few seconds, thought of calling the police, but I know my parents are inside, so I dialed my dad's no. but I thought why not just press the door bell, faster. My dad thought I did it for fun until I showed him the locked. So basically I was locked outside my house for no reason. =.= Asked my dad to pass me my laptop so I can do my assignment until the police come. My brother rushed home too, so the both of us were locked out. It took the police 45mins to come. =.="
Sigh.. I think that fella was nervous la, might haf pressed the wrong level, or wadsoeva. I wonder why so suay kenna my house. Last time also kenna for no reason. =.=" Pissed me off la. but then again its really scary. This is the second time, and it is me who saw the things done again. The 1st time was 3-4 years ago when I came back from school. Shocked.
Please dun make it happen again....=S >.<

Shouldn't have wasted my time going for practice today. Could have use the time to study and go home early to see my aunt and cousins. I left "early" but when I reached home they're already leaving, so disappointed la. I hardly see them as they live in Malaysia, plus they're going back tomorrow.. Didn't even get to catch up on our lives... Sian...............=(
And I thought everyone would turn up, was thinking not to go as there's a test tomorrow morning and I haven finish studying, and in the end?
There's no atmosphere at all, no unity, not a family anymore. It's worse than last year I guess.. what happen arh? There's a need for reflection huh.. tsk tsk. No wonder the feeling is GONE.

sighh..Pple changed, and I actually kept believing that u're different from the rest. what a disappointment. Pfft.
surprised and caught off guard like before, but its just normal to be disappointed for a while ok, I'm just Human u know.. Forgive me.
But den again His Love is so great that I know I will be alright, and will be happy... u know =)
I hope that I'll be able to blend into the group again. With no barriers.

You know, last time when I have anything that bothers me or something that made me very happy and even some random things that I encounter or thought of, I will tell you. I can easily say out nearly everything.. except for 1 particular thing la..=x You have been someone whom I confide to when anything happens, because I know you can advice me on them, you help me to see the problems in different angle, you help to me take away the anger and you lift me from below. Although sometimes dicussions on certain things just didn't go well, but I know you understand and things will resolve. But now, I am lost. I'm facing the same problem, and yet I can't tell you anymore. I can't even speak to you like before, how I can even speak to you about everything esle? I don't know how it became this way. I have no one who can help me or make me understand what is going on. You, on the other hand know from the beginning till now. I'm being drowned by the overpowering "bad aura". Even if I found someone trustworthy and understanding, that person can only be my listening ear.
I can't be pushed down this way, this is just too much and is getting out of hand, far worst than before. Not everyone sees it because they are not the victims, I see it because I am targetted. This is a result of the temptations from satan to have power over others, self-centred and glory. I could only see the "bad" working but not you(the" good") working. Are you aware of the current happenings? Can you see the injustice? Are you willing to find out? Or are you just being ignorant to it all? You have the position to make it right for everyone, but are you willing to find out? Will your conscience allow these 'bad' things to affect others, to spoil everything for them?
I have no say. I stood out of everything because I respect 'everything'. But it's getting out of control, come back. Please, come to realisation before it's too late.
Sigh... What has this world become to.....

Really had no time to think.. Extremely busy with my Projects. They are really Driving me CRAZY. My schedules are SO PACKED I simply can't find time for anything esle, even finding time to practise my songs are difficult much less having piano class. =S This week will be SO much worse. 2 Projects due, 1 must be 80% done.
I Finally got to browse through the Pictures and I nearly screamed. Why? coz I've NEVER seen myself that Tired, never. Ohh man.. it's just freaking arghh! *Faintz* Premature aging...=.= Pale and.. hmm.. my dark circles.. The 1st thing my lecturer asked me when she saw me was why do I look so sleepy. I guess partly coz I'm not wearing glasses, I can't hide much of my tiredness anymore. Sigh.. premature aging.. gee...=\ My brain.. slowing down.. not good for health.. sigh.. I NEED Sleep..and Recreation!!!
It's Gonna be an Adobe Weekend, coz I hafta complete my Site Analysis A1 Panel by MONDAY!! No need to sleep le.. Using Photoshop and Illustrator, and I need to REVISE the software!
But... I know You are always here to guide me. =D *Blessed*
Manifested by the Lord.

Followed the directions that Val gave me, Thanks a Million!! =) Finally reached the park. I thought I can travel by walking, but its just so time consuming, and I think I walked the wrong direction, coz I couldn't find any Bike ksiok in that direction. hmm..? So I hafta walk back to the "main activity" area for a bike. Well, I increased my walking pace of course, and now the sky is threatening rain. When I finally got a bike, I've wasted quite some time..and so I travelled, took pictures on the way. By the time I reached Bedok Jetty, it's drizzling.. to the point which I'd use an umbrella, so I turned back. Thinking back, I should not have, cause it takes me 15-20mins by bike from macs to there. I tried to go back there and further, but I didn't manage to go much further, 1: I'm tired already, 2: time constrain, so basically I didn't get much pictures and it's just to bike around for fun. Its really nice, if there's some1 with me would be nice too.. haha.. got Company ma.. what u'all thinking arhh.. =D
Met wx b4 my 2nd bike trip, thanks for ur company lehh..=X After I returned the bike, we set off a Looong walk to the BIG food centre. haha.. Well, I kinda suggested the idea coz I saw it during attempt trip to the other side of ecp. By the time we reached there, its already dark. HAHA. Geez.. I don't remember how long the trip was, I definitely would not have walk there for food if I were alone. There's actually nice food there, that place is really big but the food is quite expensive.. I would go there for supper IF I have a car. LOLz.. How I wish.. Can sit by the beach to eat too.. watch sunset.. so nice.. ahhh...=X I caught some nice view of the place, but I didn't get the chance to walk along the beach.. sigh.. Went there too late la.. =\ Hopefully the pictures I took are good la.. as in, relevant.
Its really weird to bike/walk around parks with a camera la. I really felt like a Tourist yesterday. People stare a me when I stop my bike to take pictures. Another thing is I actually brought my bus guide along, just to make sure I take the right bus in the right direction (but its a 2005 edition). LOLz. Plus I printed out the map of ecp from nparks website. Took the underpass near the Cable Ski, kinda ulu lohs.. gud thing is 2 pple. Reached the other end which is the back of a condo, dark loh.. tsk tsk.. den walk all the way to the bus stop, we realised there's no 966. =\ so we took a bus down to Parkway Parade, and I didn't noe the opp bus stop is there, so I decided that we alight at the next stop, maybe its nearer. BUT, the bus turned from the round about to amber road.. omg! I was like Ahh!! gud thing it didnt turn to the Expressway.. ohhh mann... damn farnie and paiseh can.. took a bus back to PP to take 966. Pengz... Sorry about that arhh..XD 966 came, we're darn lucky to haf a sit at the back, coz there's a lot of pple, and its a gud 45mins ride back to BP.

one set of glands calling to another.
Love is friendship that has caught fire.
It takes root and grows,
one day at a time.
Infatuation is marked by a feeling of insecurity.
You are excited and eager,
but not genuinely happy.
There are nagging doubts,
unanswered questions,
little bits pieces about your beloved
that you would just as soon examine too closely.
It might spoil the dream.
Love is the quiet
understanding and mature acceptance of imperfection.
It is real.
It gives you strength and grows beyond you,
to bolster your beloved.
You are warmed by his presence,
even when he is away.
Miles do not separate you.
You want him near.But near or far,
you know he is yours and you can wait.
Infatuation says,
"We must get married right away.
I can't risk losing him."
Love says, "Be patient.
He is yours. Plan your future with confidence."
Infatuation has an element of sexual excitement.
Whenever you are in one another's company
you are hoping it will end in intimacy.
Love is the maturation of friendship.
You must be friends before you can be lovers.
Infatuation lacks confidence.
When he's away, you wonder if he's cheating.
Sometimes you check.
Love means trust.
You are calm, secure, and unthreatened.
He feels your trust and it makes
him even more trustworthy.
Infatuation might lead you to do things you'll regret later,
but love never will.
Love lifts you up.
It makes you look up.
It makes you think up.
It makes you a better person than you were before.

Alarm went off at 9am, but only managed to get out of bed at 9:30am. Wake up so early on a Saturday morning to pack before going to UCC, but.. I forgot my BELT.. and I need belt for tt pair of jeans. =.= Met the guys at cck, but they're late! and I thought I was late.. =.- Had lunch, but accidents happen, good thing it didn't spill all over me.. My day wasn't going very well.. so had quite an attitude. Actually thought of going back home to get my belt but it'll cost quite some time, and we're already late, but wx lend me his belt instead.. gee.. just to hold me jeans can.. Things were quite rush at UCC.. I don't know why. Plus the last minute runs for A ca just made us more nervous.. and I think I started to go sharp again.. and we began to rush. I didn't have time to warm up, coz so many pple around, and my voice was kinda stuck. Sang a bit only. The gerls were doing make up. I did mine 1st before having dinner, but after seeing the food I decided not to eat. Spicy food.. nono.. I'm loosing my voice soon. Ate a piece of bread with chicken mayo.
I wasn't nervous before A ca item ok... I was just worried about going off coz just nice my voice is sorta stuck. The rest were nervous behind the curtains.. Chill.. be focus.. I'm quite used to singing in a group.. wx u also la.. still say me.. only can't tell by looking only loh.. hahaha.. I was quite disappointed and irritated when we're not allowed to go out during interval. 2nd half, the chinese songs, I knew I went sharp. I dunno if its just me. Ahh.. =.=
Finale..tried to hold back my laughter and sing.. haha.. Ohh.. I was super shock when they gave joe the Doraemon soft toy.. and they played the song.. hahaha!!!

I'm too dead for town. Had sundae and pie at macs.. den go home.. and we actaully missed the last bus.. so took a bus to np and decided to cab home.. thnx for the ride..

Friday (Long Day)
It's even week, so I had my 1st Floristry class. I'm beginning to feel the tiredness, kept stoning in the morning, and came late to class, lucky they were doing gardening. The moment I went to the lab, Eric(TSO) asked me if I brought covered shoes(coz I was wearing slippers), I said yea its in my bag. I brought a dress shoe instead of sneakers, my bag no space la. haha.. coz I have Full dress rehearsal in UCC later in the evening(if u noe wad i mean). Today is hectic la.. rushing from place to place. 1st Floristry class ended 1 hr later, and my fren and I rushed to canteen 3 to meet our fren for lunch and it was drizzling and we're holding a pot of flower we arranged in class. My main fern actually fell off on the way..=.= called 1 of the guys to help me get another fern, haha..=x and ohhhhh.. They helped me put my labcoat in the lab locker, but I forgot to take out my contact lense case... how silly is tt.. haha.. (I left it in the coat pocket as it was wet after i wore it during toliet break.)
Finance class from 2pm-6pm but it ended at 5pm, So Glad. Well, the content ain't that great, not what I expected. The lecturer, adjunct too, Ok la... but she brags. I know u're proud but no point bragging...... and the things she say at times just make me fill like arguing back la.. well, my fren did la.. =.= wx smsed me since before lunch, didn't recieve it until end of floristry coz lab has no signal. Finance wasn't that interesting so sms in class la.. well, I dun usually do tt kays. Suprisingly class ended at 5pm, and I can take my time to have dinner before going to UCC. wx just end class too so we decided to meet at Clementi macs. I didn't 1 to haf macs for dinner, but since its the fastest option, i gave in la.. lols.. and hmmm.. weird things happen, hai..sec sch kids..=.=
Made our way to UCC, they were doing random runs, basically A ca only sang during the last hour. =\ I had time to do some warm ups, actually the longest I have done myself before A ca songs. I was alone in the dressing room that's why. I knoe the dancers heard me.. hmm.. Hope I didn't sound bad..=X Went for supper with the 2 guys.. i didn't eat or drink, save money is 1 thing, tired is another.. haha.. matt made us take the train home...when we haf direct bus home..
|*29th April'07*|
This whole week, very busy, so after yesterday, I'm sort of dead. Had Practice and rehearsal from Monday to Saturday excluding Thursday. Wao.. Sing sing and sing, and finally memorised the words.
Monday
Had usual IS class, went to the music room to practice before going for lesson, quite surprised that 1 of the 2 ke pple allow me to stay for a few more minutes. Gained another new book, the bag of books is heavier than my laptop + adapter. Returned to school in a hurry, for full dress rehearsal, only had a ramly's burger for dinner. A ca sang, heard that it was not bad. Had some confusion with the positioning though.. Went home around 11..
Tuesday
No class, but came to do FYP, and so unfortunate to see tis new adjunct lecturer that turns me off. No wonder I made a mistake and had to redo my stock solution. =.= Went to NPS clubhse, slack, pack food up to eat with bel and sam. Played Cello a while, den took my time and made my way to LT 26. Well, since performance is on Sat so I went for rehearsal, as they need to do some adjustments with the A ca pple. Prac till 10, went to macs at Bpp w the 2 guys. Didn't expect to have so much laughter. Ok, they made me laugh throughout, since we got our food. Don't remember why, and they tried imitating and do variations of my laughter..but I just can't stop. =\
Wednesday
The aftermath of a hectic schedule is taking its toll on me. Pulled myself up for 8am class. Lecture ended early, so went to the lab for FYP, but the freak lady is there and sorta chased us out, TSO moved us to a neighbouring lab. Well, You are rude. Seeing the innocent students get scolded by you for nothing.. sigh..
Did sketches and drawing for practical, not bad, I can draw if I want to.
Didn't have proper dinner, coz I snacked during practical, so kinda full. But ate 2 hmm.. something like pancakes(red bean + chocolate), just to fill up my stomach. Went for Full dress rehearsal, took my time too. A ca sang, and hmm.. some parts weren't great. Stress is showing itself. I suppose some pple dun understand that you have to be independent while singing A capella, that means knowing ur part extremely well and not depend on others for notes, except that we hafta look at each other for pulse and move with it. We're too tired for Macs, so we went home.
Thursday
A break from singing. Went for practice, seriously that move was hmm.. didn't expect myself to do it, but after a few tries I made it. But, due to insufficient stretching of those muscles, my 2 legs are aching.. hahaha.. I needa move more. Move it Move it!

Well, it is really great to begin happy, like hee haa everywhere with seriousness plus great communications and understandings. Well, of course these things start fine.. BUT, when it all starts to crumble, it's just fustrating. U feel lost. Like, what the heck happen, what caused it, and how to fix it. And it just gets worse when there's no response, not even a try or anything and let it just hang loose. Fustrating. Who even understands till this point.
As far as I am beginning to hate this kind of things happening over and over again, but the cycle just continues, so when is it gonna be stable, or rather that the above would NOT happen. It's great to have those beginnings but not when such things keep happening and obviously I wouldn't 1 another to be like this again. Its nice to feel this way once in a while but not when it drops from the peak all the way to the bottom and trying/or not even trying to find the way back up. I'm so not going to let this cycle repeat itself. Cannot afford to risk it. It's Too Much.
This Crumbles, I crumble too. Get it?!

I kept thinking about the music lah.. aiyoo.. I was really tired.. just felt like sleeping coz chiong at night ma.. I got like tips from my teacher about arranging.. so I was sort of boosted.. and the result was not bad.. =) Plus I got the book from him just now.. so it'll help me along too.. BUT! my sibelius.. sigh.. can't safe coz not reg. and i tried, but the no. wrong. Why my frens can reg theirs but not me..and my printer.. just refuse to turn on.. and I cant print.. which just means that I can't turn off my laptop.. or esle I hafta write everything on paper..=.=" O.o
Might hafta arrange a medley instead.. well, shldn't be a prob if its something like tis current song.. hmm.. well my teacher said it'd be easier.. hmm.. hahaha.. Anyway, I am happy about the result of the arrangement although got a big gap to fill in btwn. hehs..
I know I'll tend to think a lot, not only certain things but everything for that matter. Sometimes it helps, but sometimes it'll kill. Why do I do that? Is it the insecurity that I have or what? But what's there to be insecure??? just1someimprovements. I guess that's y i'm hm.. hahs..Complicating.. x.X
You know.. I think that keeping things to myself is the best la.. everytime say out, either via blog or to some1 esle, is usually bad la.. pple either misinterpret or just dun understand at all..I think I just can't say, or it'll be bad la.. Being quiet is the best thing.. Although for me to keep mum about my thoughts is quite unbearable.. coz I feel the need to say it out.. but seldom pple understand.. so I think I shld try not to be bothered as long as I can take la..

Well, this year I felt that I did face some challenges during Holy Week, and I feel that I did reflect along with stations of the cross, with fast and abstinence. (all with understanding). On saturday the homily, I just felt Right. Prolly as long as I continue this way, I will have the strength to face my every obstacles because I know He will be with me. =)

On Monday, I was finally scheduled to work after like 3 months break. I was missed out in March prolly because the manager didn't take note of my mail.. =.=" Nvm tt. That day maby updated me about what's in the store and the stocks etc. den cal he updated me with things irrelevant to the store.. I'm kinda surprised that he told me those things la.. anywayz everyone was listening too. Some things just surprised me whereas others are really funny. Then there's this guy, who used to work there too, came and spoke to maby and I. When he heard my name he was like "Ooh, so U're Rebecca. I see, they spoke about you." I was like What?!! As in during their like trekking trip or what you know..
For 1 thing I really can't believe 'that' was true. Last time when boss or my other colleague tole me I think they're just joking/teasing me. But now tt's irrelevant already, but just now maby told me something, which is a few days b4 I return back to work. I didn't bother about it also. Actually I just don't believe it, but till now I think I believe them la. haha.. I'm just flattered. =)
Good Friday
The Crosses I carry are largely the products of my daily life. I accept, and I know You will accompany me through.
I am Weak. Help me to curb my tongue and hold my anger.
Shan off the longing for pride, and glory, make me poor in Spirit but rich in You.

My voice lacked style and I tend to sound choral, and I produce the sounds wrongly. Usually due to nervousness and I'm just said to be not able to sing correctly. I'm just confused, its not I CANNOT, I'm just NOT CLEAR of how. Then I can't sing the solo part coz I blend with the crowd so it does automatically put me into an ensemble and no chance for solo. Fine. and den some1 who can't blend properly usually gets the solo coz he/she has style in the voice. Does it mean that I cannot, ever, fullstop. just like tt?
Then I'm poor in improvision on the piano. Does that say that I'm not good enough to be an accompanist? So I'm one of the pianist who can play but just not very flexible, well maybe I'm just not used to it? Haven taken lessons for too long and just not up to standard. So does that make me Unable to play? Not good enough? so I'm just automatically shan off? Yea I'm not as gud. Fine. I admit, but does it mean no chance at all? No good equal No chance? So many damn years and still stuck just like now and nvr ever able to impress pple. what does it mean? I'm just Not fit to be a Musician? Or I should quit performing arts totally coz There's just no hope for me at all?
Might as well ask me to quit on myself totally.
Yea I definately sound Unhappy. I AM. Its just damn Unfair. I lack confidence, I dun dare to say I can, den I end up like this, Hell so no one ever see potential and Hope in me is it. (I'm thankful to those who have.) Then why the hell am I still performing for. I know u're good but U dun haf to look down on me. Damn it.

Whatever its is I feel much Lighter.=) Those questions, will be my guide in my future reflections.
Love Thy Neighbour as You Love Yourself.
Somethings are hard to do, but we should always try. For me, its easier said than done. I know but yet it still happen. But inside everyone's smiling face, there will always be some that have some hidden troubles inside their heart, only covered up by their smiling faces.
Whether it is true or not, I felt it. Both.
(1)I'm not sure, but I can say that I feel teary and anxious whenever I feel it.
(2)Small gestures I notice, although people I miss the important ones and took note of the unnecessary ones. I admit..=\ I just hope everything can be back to normal, since its agreed, so might as well keep it and work on it. I WILL WAIT.. silently in one corner.
|* 28th March' 07*|
Anywayz, Music & Lyrics is nice! but as usual, must pay attention listening coz sometimes cannot catch..lols.. The songs are nice, especially the one that 'Alex' wrote. Oh my.. I did not know Hugh Grant sings. When he opened his mouth to sing the demo of "Way back into Love", I was mesmerised. LOLz.. I'm serious. His voice is like.. Wow.. Then during Cora's concert he sang his self written song "Don't write me off", I was even more mesmerised. Not only by his voice again but by the Lyrics!!!
Its just so meaningful and touching, it just brought me to tears..*which I hafta hold back* =X Now I want this 2 recordings.. haha.. In the movie Cora was kinda "scary" as in she's like very spiritual and overly sexy..=.= Plus her songs are like errr...huh?..lols.. but when she sang "Way back into Love" with "Alex", she sounded nice too, well when she finally use the original version instead of the 'indie' thingy.. hahahazZ!
The ending of the movie was kinda short though.. I mean like sudden..? hahazZ. but well, its a nice movie, not those typical romantic comedy kind of movie. This has more content.. haha.. *Glad* The song "POP, goes my Heart" is nice, and the scene in the movie, very funny. The moves are like.. arhahha.. stiff.. haha.. limited. but its entertaining, and 'Alex' always wears the same outfit for his performance.. LOLx!
Lots of surprises..=D

I'm sorry I mind. I'm already up walking and running, DO NOT attempt to trip me over. What is the motive of that? I mean this is definately a joke that turns me OFF. It's not funny at all. Why must you rub it in? What's your motive? What are you trying to imply. If you have nothing better to say, Just Keep Quiet/ SHUT UP. I just dislike you people rubbing it in when I'm already looking forward.

I'm glad I'm getting along with them so much better than before.. hmmm.. I'm closer to the younger ones... =D Kinda surprised one of my aunt that I can carry a baby.. hmmm.. =p I don't play with kids last time *anti-social*.. but has since improved, but still not as pro as my brother..geee...

Practical ended early, so I went to the Library to do my tutorials, but only wrote out one, the rest were attempt a little here and there.
After dinner, practice. Cello practice tonight was not too bad, well hmmm, one of the better ones, but I still have problems with that few bars in Spring, and Autumn is like arhhhs?! March from Carmen is not too bad, Concerto need practice. Lack of Practice, SLOW practice. I think piano is the only instrument I can play decently.
I cant seem to handle music and studies together. I have to drop one of them to concentrate on the other. But music is what I do to relax la.. that temptation is so strong, but without practising this few days.. also won't touch lo.. =(
I haven been singing either. Have not touch my scores since the day I got it. I just do not have time. I'm so sorry I have not been coming for practice. I really need to do well this semester. I can't disappoint myself and others.
Time, I need time and SLEEP...
French final test, aural presentation, listening comprehsion on Thursday. LD to complete by Next wednesday, and a CHUNK of PGB.=.=

Practising and Practising... Cherny is good.. the practices do help improve the flexibility and speed of my fingers.. but need a lot of patience to learn.
Adagio in G minor by Tamaso Albinoni is nice la.. yea pple come to me and say that the song is sounds SO sad.. but its NICE! the more I listen the more I like it.. but the thing is.. How do I read the score? (I think its Ok already la.. if I continue to play this way la..) and How to I play it? the way I play it is different from the recording...=
