Guitar Concert
went to TPJC guitar concert last friday. so glad i went. yixi,thanks for the treat. surprised to see chantel and jennifer there too. the concert was so good, especially the ensemble. they won gold at syf this year. they had a decent instructor. ours looked liked some street musician. and they had uniforms. that made them look alot better. but most of all, their skills surpass ours by so much more. they played songs like First Love and She Will Be Loved. It was really great. and i got to meet up with the guitar people after so long. especially my cousin. haha...people who didnt know wont be able to tell that we're cousins. we went to have prata after that. the food wasnt that delicious but i had a great time anyway.

This is not a good day. ok, maybe its not that bad but i still dont feel good. first of all, my results are out. i had hoped that i can get all Bs but after the papers i lowered it down to C for some subjects. then my genetics came out with a D. a big fat D. now i got no As at all in my 1st year, with the exception of jap that is. but having A for jap is no use cos the results arn't counted for it. i'm upset cos i i studied hard for e genetics paper and i knew i could do it. if only i had voiced up to ask the lecturer what the questions meant. i knew he talked to another student for 5 mins about the question. i was straining to hear him but i still didnt dare ask. i have never been so conscious about my grades till i got to uni. maybe cos no matter how badly i did last time, i know i'll do ok in the end. and i never ranked that low among my peers before. in uni now, its different. i'm surrounded by all these smart people. some who even complain that they didnt get enough As to get into director's list. i did the worst among my friends. sigh... kk,i know. enough ranting. gotta buck up next sem.
secondly, mum said last night that some of my relatives and coousins will be driving up to Kota Tinggi(is this how u spell?) this mon. gonna go to the waterfall there and spend the afternoon. but cos they are meeting at 6am, my dad said no way is he giving up his sleep and it'll be tiring for him to drive up. and continued that he is old and not as energetic as before. dont get me wrong, i'm not blaming my dad. i know its tiring for the driver and 6am is damn early. but i'm just disappointed. i badly wanna get out and go on holiday. no matter how short. and i wanna see the waterfall. haiz...this is the 2nd chance we missed this year. first was club med. i wanna go there too~
third... i'm feeling kinda cooped up. not that i dont go out but mostly i've just been looking for jobs. its getting on my nerves. why is it so hard to get a job?? first AP Comm calls me and gives me hope. then they tell me that they are updating their database. why update when they dont have available jobs? then last mon, recruit express called with a job offer. i accepted and waited for confirmation. its been % days and still no calls. sigh...can give up already

Swensen's
Met up with the jap class people yesterday evening after yet another disappointing day of job searching with meizhen. Felt like i wasted the whole afternoon. The dinner was something to look forward to. But only 6 people came today. Junhui didnt join us due to miscommunication on me and meimei's part. We were all waiting for him and luckily, we saw him at the mrt station with his friends! He had no idea we were meeting. So coincidental! We gave kairong his b'dae present. Picked out a cream coloured long sleeved shirt. Lucky never buy the purple one. Haha... Then went Swensen's for dinner.Sat there talking and taking pics for like 2 hrs plus until the waiter asked if we want to order some more food. Went to esplanade after that. Too bad the rooftop was closed. There was actually a stretch selling hawker food at the ground level. Can check it out sometime. We sat by the river and talked somemore. Found out that June Kit is actually a very romantic guy and very sweet to his gf. The things he did for her are like wow. He actually made a snow globe with a rose inside for her. So sweet~ His views on certain issues are also different from some guys. Though he claims its his caveman thinking, it has impressed us gals. Zhen ren bu lou xiang!
Then in the front hall, we saw a very nice artwork. There were many strings of transparent acrylic puzzle pieces hanging from the ceiling. And there were green spotlights around, giving it a green glow. Hopefully i can post some photos soon.
And looking forward to our next meeting~

finally did some exercise yesterday. played badminton at safra with shiwen and meizhen. so shiok, we didnt even have to pay. haha... then went up to bowl. so happy~i finally got a decent score. my score was always under 50 last time. now can hit 100. got a strike and some spares too. shiwen was the best, can get strike while throwing the ball and talking on the phone at the same time. next time we go play again k. we went to TM for lunch. TM is really the place to meet people. i saw so many familiar faces, even jiang jing(my jc form teacher). lol...lucky he nv see us. we were getting a manicure done. i never thought i will go do a manicure. i quite like my nails. chose a shiny pearl pinkish colour. and the person drew red flowers on my thumb. but its like so not me. i'm not used to it. and i keep thinking that i'm bleeding whenever i glance at my hands. anyway, i enjoyed myself yesterday.
