What really matters.

AC today.

Guzheng practice yesterday and today. We will be having less people on stage next Friday, some shifts. Hope that we will be able to put up a better performance. GZ1 only has 5 people these two days. So little. Why do we only do it now? But anyway, laoshi told us the reasons for us getting Bronze yesterday. Cos the judge didn't like our Liang Zhu on Guzheng. One or two of them think that it is a violin piece, and not suitable to be played on guzheng. But nice can liao what. -.- Then our Liang Zhu was messy also. Cos some were slower. But our comment for Mo Li Hua was good. And I'm glad we left an impression in other instructors' hearts. They say we appeared confidence and had musicianship. They like our costumes, makeup, hair, etc.

If only we did it earlier, would the results be slightly different?

Siyuan said she heard from someone that two judges wanted to give us gold, two other wanted to give us COP. Then in the end, bronze. Where's the other one? Anyway, if it is really that case, then the 相差这么大, difference so big. It is so subjective. TSK! But it's almost 2 weeks already. It doesn't really bother me anymore. Now all that I care is, to put up our best performance next Friday evening. =)

Had floorball interclass during PE today. Our class guys not bad sia. Haha! Girls, mostly in charge of screaming only. But we got contribute one, kay!

Expensive!

Was looking up and down for my thermometer.

Then I asked my mum. She said it's with my brother. I asked why it is with him. She said cos he brought to school today. And he didn't tell me when I asked if he need to bring tomorrow. -.-

Just went to buy with my mother for him. Some places out of stock. Some $11++. Finally, bought at Cold Storage. $8!! Actually $7.95. So expensive. I remember some years ago, it was only $3.

Some contagious disease outbreak again. SARS when P6, now J2. All the critical years. Was bird flu Sec4? Don't think so. Global warming, highly contagious disease, is it going to be the end of world soon? Haha. Hope not.

Will OCIP be affected? Better not!!

Practice tomorrow. And I haven't practise, or at least recap. Later!

And I have been seeing time as xx:31 for so long. For a few months, I guess. Seriously. Haha.

Something about me.

Haha.

Why the imeem only 30 secs now? Tsk. =(

Netball today. So hot and sunny and tiring. But it's very fun. I love jumping around and defending. But my stamina is quite bad. And I kept stepping on people's toes. Actually, not many, but only two lar. Haha. Opps. It's not that little either. Sorry, Marilene and Siyuan. Lol. After PE, felt a bit tanner. Haha. I like. =)

Econs extra lesson and chem SPA after school. Chem was fun. Haha. Then again, it was so warm. Ended at 5 today.

How I feel irritated easily. When I'm am tired. And when the weather is hot. :@ My thermometer shows 32 degrees celcius.

Chem tutorial now.

I feel so bored.

I miss...

I haven't touch my guzheng since then. I miss my guzheng, although it is just lying outside. Practice resumes this Wednesday. I miss practice. SYF brought me closer to many other people in guzheng. Didn't really talk to them, but after SYF, we tag one another and comment a lot. =)

We can't do anything about the bronze. All we can do now, is to put up a good performance on 8th May. =D

Met Qian Hui, Maggie and Esther today. Raudah could not make it. Went VivoCity. Eat, talk, drink. Very full! Updated one another on stuff. Haha. A long time since we went out together.

I just realised we were in the same class in Sec2, the No1, 2 and 3. =)

I rained just now. Much more cooling now. =D Weather was so bad for the past few days. Humid and HOT! So much better now. =)

I love running short distance. =)

Feeling so much better.

I just realised I have been posting everyday this week.

So this morning Brother commented on Guzheng Ensemble. Said we got bronze because the judges don't know say what about the songs. Don't know what not supposed to play on this instrument or something. Didn't hear clearly. He said we played better than 2 years ago. He had meeting on Tuesday so he didn't go down to support. But after all, I enjoyed SYF a lot. Let's perform for the school our best during the SYF Presentation. I want to have the best performance ever. Cos I know it might be the last time performing. And I love performing. So I want and we will to put up a good performance. =)

Went to support Edouard for his tennis after school. He was losing at first, until quite badly. Then he caught up towards the end. Won 9 matches straight or something. Don't really know tennis. But it was really nice to watch. We like his serve. So nice. Haha.


Then went Ice Creamery with Debbie, Clarine, Marcus and Edmund. First time there. Ate a mud pie. So nice.



3 good friends.

I finally got the air-con back on. Problems over at my brothers' room, so had to of the main thing, for so long. So warm this few days.

Got over it already.

Haha. I know I am quite emotional this few days. Or rather emotionally unstable. But I'm okay now, really. I thought yesterday would be the last day I would cry because of SYF but no leh.

I was so happy the whole morning. But during PE just now, Mrs Tan asked you Tuesday SYF arh? I said ya. Then she said Bronze arh. I nodded. Then she went for the Napha with the guys. Then I feel so sad again, then I cried again! Ahh!! At the grandstand there. Sigh.

But a happy thing is, after crying, 2.4km. The sun was crazy, and I thought that I am going to die. Cos I know when I run under this kind of sun, don't need to run, I also know I will feel giddy. But actually okay lar, I ran 5.5 rounds without stopping. Then I walked like quater round, at the turn there, then ran non-stop till the end. And I passed. For Napha. I finally got out of BRONZE and got a SILVER! Yay. Timing was 16.15, I think. Anything lar. I passed. That's what matters. No more bronze. Everytime when I felt like walking, I told myself, you got bronze for SYF already. And you said you don't want to get bronze for Napha again, so keep running. And I did. Threw up a bit after the run, just a bit. But thank goodness it was after the run. Thanks Siyuan and Marilene for running with me. I got a 27 points Silver. I can't get a gold. All because of 2.4. But I don't want to run anymore, really. I thought had to do the other 5 stations again, but don't need leh. Haha.

Met teacher after school. Then went to support the Volleyball team, vs. IJC. They won! =D Went Presbyterian High and saw they announced Guzheng got gold, and Band got bronze. They are so proud that their CCA got a bronze. Then I felt so irony. I think they should at least announce, and acknowledge our hardwork, but at the same time, I don't want that to happen. Cos I hate bronze. But after all, it is still an award. There was no COP given out, bronze is the worst. The school before us, SR got silver, NJC and NY after us both got gold. Oh well. I can still recall that moment when they announce.. "公教初级学院，Catholic Junior College. 铜牌，Bronze." Hah. Excitement became disappointment. Forget it already lar. Move on, move on!

Alright. From this moment onwards, I will not blog anymore about SYF again. Cos I am going to accept the fact already. And I will not be sad anymore! =D I'll try. But part of me still tells me that we got Bronze and it's really bad. I am not emo-ing. It's more of a frustrated kind of feeling. When you know you practise so hard and got the worst award. I don't like bronze. Really. The colour, the word, everything. But that's what we got. Everyone is discussing it on facebook. Everyone is so upset. Everyone is so frustrated. Cos we all feel that we don't deserve it.

Had a JYMS outing after that. Pepper Lunch-ed. And went shopping for a while.

Haha! Marilene. Confused. And she was still confused until we said bye to her, when Jiaxin was going home. She thought I was at her house. She thought all those while. Until we said Jiaxin was going home. Lol.

Post-SYF.

I overslept this morning. I woke up at 6.10. Rushed off to Hougang Interchange where there are 3 buses for me to take. Skipped breakfast in how many years. Reached school at 7.30. So late. Haha. Nearly late for school.

And I checked today's date. Hoping that it will write 21 April 2009. But it didn't. It is 22nd.

For the morning, I cannot be alone. Cos I will keep thinking when no one was talking to me, like yesterday.

I feel sad, I feel disappointed. I don't know how many times I felt like crying and how many times I cried. But tears are really hard to control. But after all, it's a fact. And we know that we didn't do THAT badly after all. All of us think we deserve at least a silver. Ji En feels it too. She says she's angry, with the judges. So am I. Maybe they just didn't like us, with all sort of reasons. Don't know. Maybe we are just trying to comfort ourselves, but we still think that we do NOT deserve a bronze. Being the only JC with bronze is.. quite embarrassing. But I know we can't compare with the other JCs cos majority, or all, the J2s were not experienced. And look at NYJC and NJC. Majority are experienced. I admit that we were messy for the first part, but I think overall we are okay. And we didn't have any problems at all for the 2nd song. Guzheng performance feels like it passes faster than dance.

If you want to say that CJC has the worst guzheng ensemble or anything, I don't care already. Cos I, or we, feel that the judging so unfair. Haha. Or maybe it's just that we don't know the judging ceteria. But after all, guzheng and SYF has been a great experience.

I did not feel nervous at all. I looked at the audiences, I smiled, I moved, I played the contrast. I played well, I think. I managed to hit all the hard parts and I tried my best. I know all of us did. But the 5 judges had the final say.

Mdm Lee said this is competition. She said face the reality.

Well, it's all over now.

We all feel that our costumes are the NICEST. With this, we win all other school already!

Went dinner with Abigail and Hui Xian at Bishan Pizza Hut yesterday.

Went lunch with the guzheng people, Jesslyn, Derrick, Hui Xian, Meigi and Brenda at TPY Macs today.

And I haven't blog about this dream of mine, 2 days before SYF. Haha, Derrick. Now I know you read blogs. Well, I dreamt of guzheng SYF. But it was before SYF. Like Derrick said he wanted to give up, cos he don't think we can get gold. Then I said I won't. Haha. The end. Can't remember the details. But then again, we didn't get gold, not even silver. But it's okay. We tried our best. Of all people, I dreamt of Derrick. LOL. Who said that he was aiming for GWH. HAHAHAHA!

I am okay now! =D Thank you, everyone.

And thank you all the guys who helped us carry onto the bus. Clement, Gensen, Edmund, Marcus, Edouard, Carl and Javis. Hope I didn't miss out anyone. Cos I was sort of in a rush and didn't really see. Just thank you to those who helped! :D

And thank you JMS, for cheering me up. Especially Siyuan who was with me when I cried. Haha. But all of them comforted me. THANK YOU! And my HPYs too. For giving me the Choco Pie to cheer me up. =)

Bronze is still an award.

A break from CCA. Don't forget there is still the presentation.

Econs test today. And I didn't touch the notes yesterday at all. Like who in the right mind will have the mood to study. Haha. But I did some maths.

I sleep so nicely in class today. But not during lesson. 2nd break. My eyes just felt so tired. Slept for almost half an hour. Arh, so nice. Haha. Woke up by some random loud noise from the people behind, gaming. Lol.


In the morning.

Done! And I feel so short. HAHA! 3 tallest people.

Sister putting foundation for brother. LOL! Derrick! Revenge!


Marilene used MY phone to take this photo and set it as MY wallpaper. Lol. Haha. Cute lar, Marilene. How I love Audrey and Capri's reactions. HAHA!

So sweet of my HPYs. =)

Bye, Gold.

I don't know why I am taking it so seriously. I placed too high a hope. But is it really that high? We only wanted a gold. But actually, I will be okay with a silver too. But we didn't even get that. We never expected anything less than a silver. My heart was sort of dead. I wasn't upset but more of confused. I didn't expect a bronze. I thought I heard wrongly. I feel so ashamed. To call the class guys down to help out, paste those stickers, and get this kind of results. We all thought it was okay. Laoshi even said NJC was shocked by our second song. We all didn't mess up the parts we always do. But still, this is what we got. We are the only JC which get this. I even hoped that I will wake up from this nightmare, which is obviously too long to be a dream. Hah. But then again, the other JCs have how many experienced, with grades, people? Maybe our technique is just not there.

Live with it.

I feel so bad for the J1s. They are all experienced, and this is what we got for them.

The last time I got this award for SYF was 10 years ago, when I was in P2.

It's an unpolished gold, as Derrick said.

SYF tomorrow!

Didn't expect to come home so late today. Bought some stuff to share tomorrow.

Thank you Hanif, Edmund, Gensen, Clement, Benjamin and Jiaxin for carrying the stuff down. The guys carried guzhengs, xiaoming carried two. Jiaxin and I carried the legs. Really appreciated it a lot. It's not that we are that big or something. But for tomorrow, our arms, hands, and fingers are very important.

Carried at 4, practised from 5 to 7. The practice today was quite good. Cos we slowed down, more expressive and bigger actions. Laoshi gave us 79 at first, one more mark to gold. Then the last one, she gave us 81. GOLD! But she says provided we play like that tomorrow, we should be able to get a gold. I really hope we do. I want the first guzheng gold.

This morning, during assembly, I was so scared. I was thinking what will happen two days from then. Brother would then announce the results. I can't really concentrate in class today too.

A little something.

For all the guzhengs and percussion. Glad they like it. =) Just nice got 31 okay ones. =D

My favourite photo of the day.

Cam-whoring with my phone. Haha. Nice!

I'm happy to see this. They stole the gold with honours and pasted it there.

Now, all our guzhengs are like this. =)

Aim high! And we want to get GOLD!

Please, let's not mess up tomorrow.
Please smile tomorrow.
Please have big actions tomorrow.
Please have the contrast tomorrow.
Please let tomorrow's performance be like today's last run.
Please let everything go smoothly tomorrow.
Let's do our best tomorrow.
Let's give it all.
We can do it.

I have to sleep soon. Like now now now. But I still have to dry my hair.

SYF is coming!!

OMG! It's 2 more days! I woke up this morning and I suddenly realised it.

The thought of it makes my scared. Not nervous. I am afraid that we will mess it up and we will not be together, especially the first part. I'm afraid of all the other JCs, especially NJC and NYJC. And SRJC. Haha. Cos SR is before us, so they will affect us, in some way. I just hope that we will be at our best on Tuesday. But it's always like that, in room, we are okay. On stage, we will rush and become messy. Please play slowly and don't be nervous!

And I hate the part that results will be announced on the day itself. So scary.

Practice yesterday, 12 to 5. Supposed to end at 4. But more practice is better. =) The first note was always not together. Laoshi trimmed our eyebrows. OUCH! More wierd wierd mistakes are coming out, somehow. Laoshi says it always happen a few days before SYF. Cannot like that lar. =(

Did a little shopping yesterday. Finally got an eraser and a proper pen. And bought some stuff to make something for guzheng. =) Hope it will act as an encouragement for all to do their best. Haha. You all will get to see it tomorrow. =)

I will be posting again tomorrow. Since I will be so free. =)

One more day closer.

SYF is coming. Yes, it is. It's just a weekend and a day away. Stressed~

Ran 2.4km again yesterday. So stressed before that. Run quite okay. First round was around 1.40? Actually, I felt wierd at the first round, at the half round, but after that okay le. Then 2nd round also not bad. I wanted to give up and walk after the 2nd round, but I heard Mrs Tan's "don't give up" and I kept running. After that, I felt so good, running. Lol. I ran 4.5 rounds without stopping at all! WOW! First time. Haha. But after that, stomachache, walked and vomitted my lunch out. BOO! I couldn't complete the run AGAIN. Actually, I think that if I didn't get the stomachache, I can pass. Why is it always the 4.5th round? Haha. After throwing up, I was okay already. zzz. And I could even run another 5 rounds, with Siyuan, without stopping, with a timing of 12+++ minutes. I don't know why, but I didn't feel tired that day at all. Hah. But too bad. =( Retest next week and must redo everything. Haha. Stupid 2.4. But after training with Siyuan, I thought that 2.4 is not that scary after all. I WILL COMPLETE the next time round. I WILL PASS and I am aiming for a C standard. Even though I don't know the timing. It's an aim for a reason. I want my GOLD back. I got a bronze with 26 points now. Haha.

Heard from Ms Goh and juniors that SJC dance got a GOLD! Congratulations! We never got a gold before. Haha! Well done! Did dance proud, you all achieved something we seniors couldn't. Indian dance got GOLD WITH HONOURS. But it's okay. A gold is good enough! We can't compare like that. And that time Wednesday when I went back with Pamela, they were still quite messy. They took part in International dance. And CJ got gold too. So SJC dancers, you all did a very great job! =D I will not have a chance to visit my juniors again. Haha. Cos the sec4s now is the last batch we know.

And now, it's my SYF. 4 more days. 1 more actual practice. Today's practice was not that bad. But still, a silver standard. Laoshi asked us to show our confidence and be a little.. Arrogant. To push for a gold. Actually it's not really be arrogant, but to be more of confident. Bigger actions, sweeter smiles, more confidence, neater actions, better coordination, more hope. CJ dance got gold. So Brother will want more gold. And I want a gold too. I have never gotten one in my life. I don't want to be stuck in a silver forever. This is my last chance. Since I can't get one in dance, I want to get gold in guzheng, and for CJ. JC life is so short. 2 years, SYF is once every 2 years. So we only have a chance in JC. ONLY ONE! So we must do our best. We must try our very best to get GOLD! But I like silver better, as in the colour. But for an award, obviously GOLD is better! Haha, it's an aim! I must state first, in case we can't make it, so I got 台阶下. If we get bronze, I'd rather Brother don't announce.

And the thing is, Brother will be there. We will be getting the result on the day itself. We will stay for the results. Heart will beat very fast. And I hope that we will be screaming, and crying- tears of joy. I HOPE. But I think.. If we don't mess up the performance, I should be happy already. Cos that will be our standard. But if we don't mess up, and we can't get gold, then.. Aiya, don't think about it already lar. Now everything I am thinking of is SYF, GOLD, SYF!!

I've got a guzheng rehearsal video at PAC. I think I will only show it when it's after our SYF. Hehe. And we need help on Monday. Haha. =)

Capri gave Siyuan and I a card today. And she printed out 4 photos she took on Wednesday. Thank you, Huai Peng You! =D

For the past few days, I have been so tired. Slept before 11. And all the tests, SPA.. zzz. I feel so tired now too.

Got hope, no hope?

It's the Wednesday, again. And it will be weekend again, soon.

Had practice yesterday. The 2nd last run was not bad, quite good actually. Laoshi say, it's a high silver standard. Silver, yes, silver. Push a bit more might be able to get gold. HAH! But after that, we got it messed up again.

Practice at PAC today. Before that, became Capri's model for her photo competition. Went PAC. Tied hair in class, high ponytail. Haha. Changed at PAC. Then took photos. Haven't done stretching for almost 2 years. Haha. Hard already, not flexible at all, I never was anyway. Haha. Took a few shot. Cannot balance. LOL! It was so stuffy and we were perspiring.

Went for CCA after that. Carried guzheng down to PAC, then carried the legs down, changed and started the rehearsal. Had to practise the moving in and out like how many times? More than 5, less than 10 times. And it was so heavy and tiring. And something so suay happened to me. I knocked one bridge, and it dropped out. Then I tried to fix it back, another dropped. I was like die lar, then they started going in again. I just took the bridges in my hand. Imagine that happening on the day itself. Nightmare! After that, we had to run through it again. I asked Joanna to help me fix it, cos I'm so scared that a third one will drop out. -.- So she helped me. I had to skip or play the two strings softly, cos I know that they are out of tune for one run. But I realised that the last string was actually in tune, miraculously. And I knew that the other bridge was touching that bridge, and it has to be. So I moved it, and they were somewhat in tune. So after that, can play louder le. But we didn't perform well today. Same old problems, not together... Our standard dropped by a lot. Like that, how to get... What we want? A gold seems so impossible. But we will still try our best. =)

After that, carried the stuff out, brought legs up, changed, went back down to carry the guzheng up. Carrying it up is so much harder. Carrying it down was not much of a problem, I think. Cos still had strength, after all that practice and stuff, arms really tired. Right leg got blister, bled a bit. Haha. All the shoe's fault. I left the plaster upstairs. And I got blue-black on my left wrist, don't know why, and a big one one my right hip. Lol. It's all because of my darling, guzheng. Cos I let it rest on my hip and keep knocking against it or something.

How many practices more? 3, but 2 to be exact. Cos Monday, cannot practise too much.
How many days more? 6 days. Hah. And we are still LIKE THAT.
Just hope that we could be like yesterday from now on. We only have one chance. Our one and only.

And I don't feel like doing anything. Econs test tomorrow. Boo! HAVE to study. I can feel it coming, not the test, but SYF.

SYF is coming!

First of all, Qian Yi is a quiet and shy girl, FULLSTOP! HAHAHA! Hmmm.. Maybe not.

Actually, there's nothing much to update. It's always lectures, tutorials, remedials, tests and CCAs.

Cut my fringe again on Wednesday. It's short, it's wierd. But it has one more week to grow. =)

2.4, I don't know if I have the stamina to run more. But it's more of the determination which I don't have.

Yesterday, had guzheng again, and our costumes came. It might be a bad thing to be the only guy in a CCA. Cos the costumes are for the girls, and the only guy had to help us carry up. Haha. The main gate was closed, the tailor had to drive in from the backgate. We worried that she will lose her way. Thank god she didn't. Our costumes are.. Not bad bah. People will know we are from CJ at the first sight. Laoshi says that. Cos the costumes are white.. then slowly turning BLUE. CJ. Tried the costumes, altering a bit, make it tighter. I thought we were not bad during one of practice before laoshi came. But after that.. Haha.

Full-dress at PAC, with guitar, on Wednesday.

Juniors having dance SYF this Tuesday. Planning to go back visit them tomorrow and see how they are. I miss them! Cannot be there on Tuesday cos of school. Moral support then. Hope to hear their good news. They said Indian Dance got Gold with Honour. Wah! Quite unbelievable. So they must work even harder. But no pressure on you all, yeah? Just do your best! =D

It's 9 more days to guzheng SYF! 加油，加油，加油！

Obsessed with Butterfly Lovers.

PTM on Saturday. Ms Ng says I'm quiet in class. Had Science Week proposal meeting with Chong Mei and Nat yesterday. Nat asked what Ms Ng told my mum, I said she said I'm quiet. Then he said I should make more noise. She allows me to talk or something. Lol.

And I am going to watch Liang Zhu, The Butterfly Lovers, now. Haha. Hopefully, I will be able to express my 'love' and have more feelings in the song. =)

Time now is 1925. Spent almost 2 hours watching the show, around 1 hour 55 minutes watching it. Haha. Some enrichment. Didn't know Zhu Ying Tai so man, and the two of them always act cute. Haha. Some of the scholars quite gay and so mugger! Lol! I should go study soon too. It's a nice show. So sad and touching. Aww.. Hope that it helps in the piece. Haha.

This week.

Actually, I'm very lazy to blog. HAHA!

Anyway, had PE on Monday. It was the obstacle course thing. It's always great to have the guys around, cos they always help the girls. Haha. Thanks! All the girls got onto the wall, by ourselves, cos guys were not allowed to help. I got a huge blue-black on my right arm. It was a bit swollen on Monday. But getting better now.

After school on Monday, went for the SYF rehearsal at Republic Cultural Centre. Had to carry the guzhengs and legs from the 5th storey to the 1st floor, with the help of only one guy. All the girls carried at least 1 guzheng. And squeezed with the guzhengs on the bus. It was a 40 seater bus, 25 guzhengs, 26 legs, and 29 people. A guzheng occupied one seat already. We reached there before 2030, laoshi was there already, she brought us in. Guitar was still practising. So the sectional leaders tuned the guzheng. Guitar practised a few times more. Then they let us use. Laoshi taught us how to carry and put the guzhengs. We had to get ready in 1 minute. The first trial was 1.44 min. Second one, changed the order of who goes in first, timing 1.07, then finally faster than 1 minute. Played the songs. Horrible. So messy, cannot really hear the others. Laoshi scolded us. But we kept playing wrongly. I was not nervous or anything. But somehow, just kept playing wrongly. Time passed so quickly. We only had a few runs there. And it was the end. At 10, we stopped rehearsing and the teachers debriefed us. Then we carry the stuff back onto the bus again at 2230. Reached school at 2245. Carried the stuff up to 5th floor again. Then left school at around 11 plus. Abigial asked her parents if I can get a ride home. And they said okay. They are so nice. I reached home at 2345. If they didn't send me home, I would reach home after 12. It was so inconvenient for them. Really appreciated it. =D

On the bus to Republic Poly.

Tuesday, we got our new ez-link card. Laughed at all our classmates' primary school photos.

Wednesday's guzheng practice was bad. Everyone was so tired.

Had PE yesterday. It was the 5 items. Many of the girls were on MC. Only 7 or 8 out of 11 took the test. I think I got all A for the 5. =D I glided during shutter run. =( And I can suddenly reach so far. Haha. Then had to practise for 2.4km. I managed to finish. Chon g Mei ran with us. But Capri was not feeling well halfway. It was quite crazy cos I did the 'Napha' all on the same day. Just that the timing for 2.4 was not taken. And I slept at 10 yesterday. So tired. And I'm having backache now.

Guzheng today. Quite fun. Of course laoshi scolded us. But after that, it was quite fun. At first we were messy again. All sections at different parts. We got better after that. Intensive training coming up, but compared to the other colleges, maybe not so.

I weighed my guzheng. It is 7.5kg. Haha.

SYF in 2 weeks. Time is passing faster each day. And we are so not ready for SYF.

Somehow..

My class is having this ping pong craze now, using the teacher's table, and pencil cases as net. Even Chong Mei and some other girls are playing it too. HAHA! I don't know how to play. If not, I think I would join in the fun too. =)

PTM tomorrow, early in the morning.
