Time after time

If you're lost you can look,and you will find me

Hi! I realised that Hana Kimi is really not bad. lol. Just that I need subs if not I can't watch. So I'm writing this while waiting for the Hana Kimi on YouTube to load. :D

Time after time

I wanna try Zonda reeds! & i want a new mouthpiece and ligature, so I shall start saving!

Allowance: $30/week.
Maintainance spending: $5 for coffee & $5 for others.
=> Remainder: $20.

1 box of Zonda reeds: $14?
Mouthpiece: $125
Ligature: about $100?
Total: $239

So it will take me about 3 months to save up that much. and its three months of INTENSE SAVING. No taking taxis, claim everything else from parents etc. OH MAN.

NVM MAR, ITS ALL WORTH IT.

And I think I shall start today. (OH NO WHAT ABOUT THE CONCERT! :( I hope my dad pays for it. ) Anyway, JIA YOU MAR!

If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting

Today we had financial literacy workshop part I. We learnt about the stock market, and then we played this game which required us to handle our "money" for 10 "years" by buying stocks, property, and the like. I liked it, but it was pretty boring. :( The trainer kept droning on and on and on.... For the first half I fell asleep tons and tons and tons of times. Then during break I ate my first meepok of the year from the canteen! And it was horrible :( I wish the old uncle was still around... Oh and I drank a packet of milo. Seriously milo DOES NOT GO WITH MEEPOK. I felt so horrible after that. During the 2nd half of the workshop I spent the whole time talking to Jacq about games and ATK and whatever else. I wasn't really listening but I was following what the trainer was referring to from the book and it was quite interesting. Though I doubt I'd ever do things like that in real life.

I came home after the workshop. I was supposed to go for CIP but due to the fact that I "suddenly came down with a TERRIBLE HEADACHE", I had to go home and rest. :) I already have 100+ hours anyway. So yea, I was talking to my mum, and she brought the "JC" subject up. I told her I was fixed on going to SAJC, but she refused.

"NO! I want you to go to TJC!"

"ARE YOU INSANE! Its so far away!"

"I want to move to the east anyway so it won't be far away"

"But I don't WANT to go to TJC!"

"Why?"

"Because I want to join SAJC BAND!!!!!!!"

"Why can't you join TJC band?"

"... I joined PY so i'll at least have a chance to get in through DSA!"

"Ok! you get in through DSA! and then once they accept you, you can reject it! You get your wish already what. You got in!"

"(thinking: WTF!?) ... THEN WHATS THE POINT OF APPLYING?"

"I told you I want you to go to TJC. Why do you want to go to SAJC?"

"Because I want to join the BAND!"

"What else besides that? I'm not going to let you go if you don't sell me the idea"

"Fine, if you don't let me go, I'll just not study and get just enough points to get in."

"Ok, don't study. Its your choice what. If thats how you want to plan for your future, go ahead. Its up to you."

(thinking: IF EVERYTHING IS UP TO ME WHY CANT IT BE UP TO ME TO GO TO SAJC?! NOW WHY IS THAT UP TO YOU? =.=)

So then i shut up, no point arguing. She'll just call me rude and give me a lecture on some crap that I probably don't want to hear.

Time after time

Yea, so I finished up my lunch after that and fell asleep smsing. Woke up at around 6. =/ Practised my clarinet until 7.30pm (including 5 mins for dinner in between) I still have another half an hour to go if I want to complete my 2 hours today, but its kinda late.. K but I still have to solve that stupid part of P&P that I cant play.. Sigh.

Okay, time to go.

Marmite, but Pa might not.

Today was a really boring day.

BOO.

I spent the whole day stoning in class and thinking about the PY pieces that we're playing. Because lessons are boring. And our songs are so nice. and hard to play. So the whole day I was looking forward to coming back home and practising. Taking a break now. I still can't tongue properly la =.= Always got the disgusting sound.. not clean.. How do you make it clean... I get so fed-up whenever I can't do things like this. :( :(

OH.
This afternoon I went to orchard Popular to buy some stuff, so I took 171 after school and stopped outside Tangs. Then from Tangs I took the underpass. When I reached the orchard mrt, this guy came up to me to ask for donations (the kind where they make u listen to them for a looong time then ask you to donate). I don't really like entertaining this kinda people cos usually after they finish talking all their crap I find it hard to refuse. Its kinda 'paiseh'. =/ Anyway, I told that guy I was in a rush, so he went,"Oh ok. Nvm thanks." Then here comes the best part. He turns around slowly to face his 2 friends and shout, "KANINA!!" In that irritated, but sort of desperate manner. I wanted to laugh. But decided not to. So went up to Popular, bought stuff, and came down to take MRT. Then, guess what! He approached me again.(Prolly couldn't recognise me)He asked me again to listen to him and I told him that I was in a hurry. "Wah basket. oops. I mean nvm thanks" LOL. That time I DID laugh out loud. Sry, I know I'm being evil but that guy's reactions are super funny. I bet he's been rejected all day or something. Lol. Poor guy.

K, nothing else to say.

EXCEPT... GO HERE! The Impossible Quiz from Newgrounds.com. SUPER DUPER FUN. :D

ooh.

Get Your Sexy Name

I got the link from rachelle's blog and i thought it was cool! :D

The best time of my life.

Hey.

& today is the 26th of feb.
I went to watch epic movie, and OMG did it suck. The plot was immensely lame. =.=

On the 25th of feb, however, there was PY prac! And it was so fun. We played Poet and Peasant Overture and English Folk Song Suite. Nicest songs on earth! But also one of the hardest I've ever played. Ok, i couldn't play it at all, but i swear I'm going to practise really hard. It was well worth the challenge though. It being so nice and all.

Oh and I just realised I sent Mr Glosz my email as cloudsteel@hotmail.com.. =.= Talk about blur..

K anyway, I failed both geog AND chinese tests. BAH. I'm going to get it frm my parents... but I DID study k! Just not hard enough.. :( Man, how am I going to get into SAJC at this rate?!

Ah, so there's this problem, and I found a short-term(?) solution to it.. but.. will it stay solved?

I hope so.

Black Dog

HELLO! Wow i spent so long listening to nice band songs (: I think im addicted to my clarinet again yay. Shall go practice ltr. HAVE. TO. FIX. MY. TONGUEING.

OH SHOOT! My hp running out of batt and i got no chargerrrrrrrrrrr. :(

Anyway, REMINDERS. CHEM TEST ON MONDAY ! Dumb Qualitative Analysis. Though I think i'll never forget the pretty yellow glitter in the test-tube when you add Lead (II) Nitrate to an iodide. yayness for IODIDES! So people, remember the iodide test okay! (: GOOD LUCK FOR CHEM TEST EVERYONE! > >

I'm so broke this week. Didn't get my allowance yet. So the whole week been living off savings. & because of the ring last week i only had $20 for savings. So thats been lasting me throughout the week. Now I have like three bucks left. Thanks to everyday having to buy lunch or food before i go back to prevent myself from starving. I feel so faint everytime I skip breakfast and lunch. DAMMIT. I miss old times when i used to be able to last the whole day without food... =/

Philyouth prac tomorrow! Hope my mum lets me go. I'm so excited! Hm. okay. Time to start studying.
