i havent done a proper update for some time.
recently very busy, with concerts and planning of outings and especially LAB REPORTS.
one week after another.
ah.. so what have i been doing?
let the pictures do the talking ba.
some pics are taken from my hp, while others are from my cam.
so will have alternate good and bad quality photos de.
haha.
mj and ys' belated bdae celebration.
this pic is damn classic.
met w shue and shu before shue goes over to cambridge to study.
jiayou girl! im proud of you =)
how can we not eat from our fav tau huay stall?
badminton session w jc study grp ppl cum belated bdae celebration for derek, zhixiong.
mingkwang's sexy lips. hahha.
kok! lets be macs' 代言人 as part time job =)
went to kok's house, for the first time, and i took a pic with his guard's sunglasses.
eh no, hes not in guards.
buy the shades for fun only. haha.
youth bbq, the first major event that we had, with so many ppl joining us.
my first time planning a major event for the youths.
thanks to kok, weihao and weechong for coming =)
family day the next day following the youth bbq.
dad likes to let john fly, john likes to fly. =D
did an expt one of the days and made complexes for analysis in the next lab session 2 weeks later.
green - Fe(III) oxalate complex. white - Al (III) oxalate complex.
interesting apparatus like the Büchner funnel on the left and the hotplate on the right.
da capo was coming, last concert w mr tan.
therefore, full section photo w mr tan.
og jacket was ready later in the week.
cx and me had to literally lug the two heavy bags of jacket back to nus.
the tuesday before the concert, during sectionals.
the 2nd half ppl finally met simin and we all talked properly for the first time.
DA CAPO '08.
section photo is damn nice.
thanks to everyone who came to support.
its my first concert with so many frens coming =)
special credit to zhicheng who made such an intricate concert prez for everyone.
benson and me agreed tht zhicheng's gf will be damn lucky =)
the concert was... supremely fun and good.
musically wise, i wouldnt say we did an excellent job..
just that, as much as possible, avoid those major mistakes like intonation probs and everything.
but of cz, we werent THAT zai, esp only practicing tgt for abt 10 weeks.
i screwed up big time on stage too.
hmm.. it was an emotional concert.
cz it was mr tan's last concert w nusws.
he was the conductor that really manage to convince the whole band to have fun on stage and not to be too hard on ourselves if we dont sound as good.
and indeed, it WAS fun.
i suppose he had the faith in all of us to try and make ourselves sound the best we could.
so in any case, i can tell that majority of us enjoyed our time on stage.
every note, every chord, every rhythm, every set of running notes, and every minute of music making w mr tan.
and the last chord we held in "its a small world" was just so full of emotions, passion, nostalgia and reminiscence, mostly overflowing from our snrs next to us.
decorated with tears of sadness from many of our snrs.
i read khai yuen's blog that other day.
he had this tribute entry to mr tan.
it was so emotional tht even those who dont feel anything would feel something by the end of that long entry.
its a pity that i could not be under mr tan anymore.
thot that he would be someone that i can learn alot from.
and despite the fact that ive only been under him for less than 10 weeks, i'll seriously miss the way he teaches and educates all of us abt the dead music score in front of our faces.
he brought the music alive.
i know tht we wont be able to feel as much as the snrs do.. but a fraction of those intense emotions did rub off on the year ones too.
the time on stage performing with him reminds me of nodame cantabile actually.
how chiaki inspired his musicians on stage, as well as touching the hearts of the audience in his last concert with A-oke in japan before he left for europe for further studies.
i can almost see mr tan's shadow in chiaki.
hahaha.
and we feel as much as the A-oke ppl. =)
wel, hope that mr tan can really come back and join us at nus cz theres just so much to learn from him.
we've got all our best wishes sent along with him to USA when he leaves next year.
i hope he'd really do well.
cz nusws will be hoping, and waiting for his return.
the email he sent was, saddening, yet inspiring and motivational.
you wont believe how touching it was.
ohwels.. i guess ppl come and go in our lives.
some make great impacts in a short time, while some others dont, even after interacting with them for quite some time.
DA CAPO '08 was great and memorable.
and i am glad that i was a part of it =)
alriteys, on to the next thing.
since everything has ended, tuition, cca and everything..
time to catch up w sch work.
i will try my best.
no matter whether im cut out for uni or not.
im gna give it my best shot and leave the rest to God.
theres nothing much i can do also.
hmm but if i do go to you and start complaining abt sch, do pardon me =X
i just need to let off some steam, but deep inside, i know i need to push on.
so if i start complaining to you, give me your trust, and il strive on to do my best for God, for myself, and for the ppl around me. =)
sigh, suddenly so motivated.
hope it stays that way.
but still, i would need help and guidance w work.
where do i get the help i need? :/
and...
its been freaking confusing.
i really... :/!!!!!
RAWR.
somehow i feel like shrinking back and hide myself from the world again.
ah.. its been 2 hours of blogging.
i better go get the slp i really need.
and i need to change blogskin.

firstly, HAPPY BDAE CHUANXIN~
see? i matched you with my fav colour.
DONT roll your eyes.
haha okok.
best wishes from me =)
hmm..
i havent blogged for ages.
it had been an eventful 2-weeks.
there were mid terms, youth bbq, loads of band prac, getting OG jackets, loads of mugging and neglecting of homework, loads of days gone w insufficient sleep, and getting back 2 screwed up papers.
i feel like giving up trying so hard.
sigh i really dont know what to say.
i dont know how to vent or express myself.
i just feel damn drained and i dont wna do anything anymore.
i really think that i am not intelligent enough.
i feel damn stupid amongst everyone.
come here and cushion the smart ppl.
ah, thanks cx and grace..
if i dont have ppl i know in sch, i really dont know what il do.
luckily im not like in some overseas sch or sth.
i think il just die there.
sigh.
kok's right.
i need to come up with some study plan or sth.
hai.
sometimes i wonder how ppl like zhenghong or zhiwei does it.
with a packed schedule like that, how do they even manage?
and they do well too.
this proves my point about my intelligence.
dr bettens said sth during lecture that day.
"working hard does not mean that you will do well.
when you work hard, you MAXIMISE your probability of doing well."
then he went on to rattle abt studying hard abt shakespeare for a chem test and that nothing wld work out.
-_-"
then he said. "of cz, the smarter ppl will have an easier life. if youre not so smart, like me, then you have to work very hard. too bad, thats life. too bad."
haha.
so true.
hmm..
recently im very confused again.
i shld stop analysing so deeply into things and just look at what to do next.
bahh, lets do some light hearted update.
eh concert's up next friday.
im quite looking forward to it actually.
cz it had been a long time since i last performed.
extreme makeover sounded much better ytd.
makes me motivated to prac it.
oh, let me intro my section a little.
i have a very big section, for the first time.
we have as much horns as trumpets, 17 ppl.
zzzz.
so many lar!
anw the cute snrs are... benson (very cute SL!), amanda (hit those notes for october!), jama (yes cutest snr. i know), mingwei (hi mingwei! =D now you rmb my name. haha.), natalie (WOOT! extreme makeover partnerrr), tim (fake chinese!), zhicheng (bip bip!!), joanna (-poke your face- haha), jason (chem snr!!).
wel, at least thats my impression of them at the moment.
first half year 1s.. puay bing (ahh ny tune in crasher who knows leon too!), guoxian (i know zhenghong and me miss you alot =) haha), zhuojing and simin (whom i have talked less than 10 sentences to).
i dont see the first half ppl at all cz when they got prac, we dont, and vice versa. =(
second half year 1s.. tzehao (yay thanks for sharing subway with me!), abel (the 2nd sentence i said to him was, "as in cain and abel?" haha! my didi la omg, so smart.), zhenghong (section mateyy! stop killing me w cheem chi and stop being so busy! and your dinner, and wake up late, and slp at 4am.. STOP IT).
yay band prac is fun with them around.
hmm.
i realise i din finish blogging abt SOW.
i reached the end of the first part i think.
aiya the behind part not so exciting.
haha.
we had on the following monday 4 aug FIC cum movie outing, tues FLAG, wed ECP outing, thur SOW CAMP part 2 amazing race around spore (which we nua-ed around instead) cum overnight stay and bbq, fri RAG.
yupp. orientation was fun actually.
alritey, thats it for the moment i guess.
tmr im gg to sch to study with cx, and then self prac w cx and zhenghong, then cx will go for first half prac at 7.30pm then we'll have 2nd half prac at 9pm.
zzz.
sometimes, i really have to plaster that smile on my face.
and i dont wna do that.
