Dear Bloggie...

LIFE

Life... Life... Life...
No matter how many times I say it...
I still don't have a life... -.-

Been sick for a very long long time...
Well, not really that long, since last Tuesday...
Even though I was sick, I still went to Jalan Raye with my friends...
Of which I suffered the consequences only near the night...
My nose was just flowing like tapwater...
Nothing much to say about the outing...
Just that I felt like dying half the time...
Luckily I'm near full recovery now...
I'd really like to thank those who wished me well...
I really really really really REALLY appreciate it alot...
And now I'm mostly well and all...
I wish all those who are still sick to get well soon ok! =]

Since I was sick, I didn't have mood to do anything...
And yes, when I say anything, I really mean anything...
I couldn't sleep, I couldn't sit infront of this laptop...
It's not that I don't want to, I just can't cause of my tapwater...
So I've been occupying myself alot with playing my PSP...
Especially with games which are new, I find them fun...
Speaking of PSP, I'm thinking of trading in my PSP for a new PSP Slim...
My uncle told it I just had to top up about 100+...
And with my hari raya money...
I have no idea what I'm gonna do with it...

I just wanna say, I have great friends around me...
And today I shall feature a friend...
Her name is..... Shermeen!
She's been tagging my board as ~ShErMeEnZ~ so it's not that hard to miss...
The person who's always been bullying me and the person who's been bullied by me... =X
Work both ways la hor...
She's always online most of the time...
If not she'll be watching tv...
She's just a great person to be with...=]
SSS~! SUPER STRONG SHERMEEN! =]


SCHOOL

SCHOOL! yes, school...
I have no idea what to talk about school...
I've skipped quite alot of tutorials...
Missed afew lectures...
Not that I want to, cause I'm sick and lazy to go doctor everyday...
I was only given one day MC...
But I was still sick the next day...
Anyways, there's this malay/indian lecturer which I totally cannot tolerate...
With his indian accent which is totally difficult to understand...
And he keeps stopping his lecture to scold those who's talking...
The first time he started to irritate me was his second lecture...
I couldn't take it, I just went off in the middle of the lesson...
And subsequent lessons, I just will tap my card and leave...
At most I'll just study the chapters by myself or go through during tutorials...

I must say, I still love going for practicals...
It's so easy and fun...
Well, I think it's easy because it's fun actually...
Even though there's some theory involved...
Most of it are just straightforward stuff...

Usually class ends super early of which I'll go to any FCs to eat...
I get hungry quite early in the morning, so having breakfast is crucial...

This is not related to school, but it is to studying...
So since studying is under school then blah blah blah...
I'll be taking my music theory exams next Saturday...
Please please please wish me luck...
I know it's only Grade 3...
But there's a truckload of info for me to swallow...
Ok, ok, truckload might be exaggerated...
But still, I might get nervous and screw up totally...
And I really hope I won't get sick on that day...

Speaking of school, next week is E-Learning Week!
Which means, there's no school for the whole week...
Which means, HOLIDAY...but for a week only...
But on Monday I gotta drag myself to school for FYP briefing...
Of which I'm still unsure of what time it is...
I'm such a lousy class rep....

BAND

Band..........
I've been hearing alot of negative feedback from NASband...
Like seriously bad feedback...
Such as people wanna quit and those who don't respect seniors...
I actually feel quite sad listening to all this...
I mean...
First we suffered during SYF...
Looking at their sad faces...
At that time they were so determined to strive for a better band...
But now...
It's as though those times they went through were a mere memory...
Maybe to them, it might be just one of those down side in band...
I can't blame them...
But running off and showing bad attitude towards band, I just can't tolerate...
No matter how hard the seniors are trying...
No matter how hard the teachers are trying...
No matter how hard anyone have been trying...
There's no improvement in attitude whatsoever...
The band has become SOFT...
No one respects anyone anymore...
We have people who come for band as and when they want to...
I've felt great losses in the past before...
Suffered greater pain...
But the greatest pain of all would be to see the band I love so much...
Just crumbles slowly...
Becoming meaningless...
Every practice becomes a chore...
Is this what a band should be?
Where did the band go wrong?
The leaders?
The members?
The teachers?
Who who who?
It doesn't matter now...
Cause it has already begun...
The sinking ship of NASband...
Please forgive me if I sound pessimistic...
But that's the reality of things are right now...
And no matter how we look at it, we can't run away from it...

Is there ever a way to save this band from sinking?
Like every problem, there is a solution...
I believe, the bigger the risk one takes, the bigger the reward one will get...
So my solution would be...
Seperating those who wants to be in band, with those who don't...
Meaning, kick out those that have a bad attitude towards band...
So that means we'll have a small band...
A reminder to everyone, this band started small...
And there's nothing wrong with being a small band...
My solution is to start the band from scratch again...
Nurture those commited members to be elites...
Make them our strength...
So when other batches come in, this batch of commited members will be ready...
Ready to dicipline, nurture and educate the future members...
Band remember, we do not need a big band with uncommited members...
We need a band that has it's roots and culture...
It may take a long time to build the foundations...
But once the foundation is there...
We will be ready to move upgrade ourselves...

Band members, if you've read this...
Spread to everyone you know in the band to read this...
And those who just don't care about band, we DON'T need you...
So stop showing attitude and giving everyone a hard time...
I'd rather you spend your time elsewhere...
Thank you.


SONGS

I've been listening to the Plain White Ts....
Specifically would be Hate I Really Love You, Hey There Delilah...
Been listening To Zanarkand also...
Oh yar, The Golden Circle is nice too!

Ok that's all for today!
Will update in a months time if no one bugs me and if every band member read my post already...
Take care everyone! =]

Zupz Zupz!

Dear Bloggie...

*before I start blogging, I just wanna say that I'm gonna change the way I blog, just for kicks... So basically it will split into 4 sections, Life; School; Band and Songs... So lets say if it works!*

LIFE

Ok, I haven't been posting for ages in here...
So I would like to apologise once again for not updating...
It's weird as to how many people come my blog even when I haven't updated...
Again, I'm sorry for not updating...
The last time I blogged was during fasting month...
Now I blog is after fasting month...
So that means Hari Raya time...
Yesterday I went to my relative's houses...
Well actually only two houses...
The eldest sides of my mom and dad...
Morning I went to Hari Raya prayers at Masjid Kampung Siglap...
We reached there quite early and not many cars were there as it should...
After prayers, my cousin lost his slipper and walked barefooted to the car...
At around after Zuhur prayers, my family went to my mom's eldest side...
Which is at Sengkang, cabbed down there...
Ate Nasi Goreng Tomato, can't remember who brought it there also...
After lunch was the apologising session...
(note to those who don't understand what apologising sessions are, it's a session where we ask forgiveness starting from the eldest and basically all the way down, and it's also the time where kids recieve their green packets, well, for me at least...)
After apologising session, we watched tv together and we went back...
My family and I went back home for Asar prayers...
After which we went to my dad's eldest side...
Did the same thing I did at my mom's eldest side...
Recieve green packets and stuff like that...
The only similarity between both houses was that...
Both houses, everyone keep telling me it's been so long since they saw me...
Which, is very true actually...
I mean come on, schooling in a Tertiary Level aint that easy nor free...
So I guess, everyone's happy to see me like finally...

Anyways, I ate ketupat and lontong at my Nenekz house...
I was bloated as hell...
The type where my head just feels like sleeping...
And true enough, the moment I went home...
I did my Isyak prayers, and went straight to bed...
I woke up this morning and looked at my hp...
I recieved 3 sms...
Luckily I told one of them I was sleeping, so she should know...
Woke up quite late also today...
Went to Tmart to buy KFC...
Actually wanted to buy Macs breakfast meal...
But the moment I saw the queue...
I just went past the door and went to 7 eleven...
Bought instant noodles for emergency as I've run out of stock...
Went to KFC soon after, bought cheesy BBQ meltz...
Been dying to eat that during fasting month...
Went home and ate my KFC while watching tv...
American Inventor was on, so I watched...
It was showing the top 10 worst inventions...
Super hilarious...
After which I'm here now online...
Updating my blog since it's been dead for so long...
So that's the end of my doings for today, well, up till now at least...


SCHOOL

I must say school hasn't been so much fun recently actually...
I missed half of the first week of school...
As I was hit by the flu bug which made me really sick...
And what more, I was fasting..
So I had to break fast early for two days...
Which also means I have to pay back my fast...
Other than that...
All the practicals has been quite easy...
Been ending early all the time for practicals...
Even some tutorials or lectures have been ending early...
But since I was fasting, haven't been able to go for early breakfast or something...
That's why I'm looking forward very much to next week...
Finally I can eat in school like everyone else...
I really miss the food there...
Speaking of school...
I haven't been doing all my tutorials...
Except for some, which I did during tutorial lessons...
Other than that, nothing else...
Diploma day and the celebration of SEEE's 50th Anniversary this coming Wednesday...
Honestly, I'm not looking forward to it at all...
But hey, I think I'll be getting CCA points...
Although I feel my CCA points are quite sufficient already...
Nothing wrong with getting more right?
So I guess, from tomorrow onwards, it's full gear for me in terms of school...


BAND

Band...
What can I say...
I haven't been active in band for the last month...
In SP band too due to fasting period..
And at night I have to do my Solat Terawih(special prayers)...
But but but...
I've recieved my own mouthpiece which I bought...
My shiny new SM4 Euphonium mouthpiece...
It feels good when buzzing, so I hope it feels great when playing too...
I haven't been to NASband either cause they're having exams...
So band has stopped for awhile...
NASband is starting again next Friday, can't wait for that...
It's time to start being serious...
Talked to Joy about the band lots of times...
We both feel like doing something great for the band...
*At least I don't feel alone*
So we'll try our best to do whatever we can for the band...
Cause honestly, the band is losing it's spark and publicity...
And being inactive for so long just kills the spirit...
So it's time to pick up the slack and let the world know who we are...
And let them know how great we can sound...
Cause we are, NASband...


SONGS

Currently I'm hooked onto quite a huge bunch of songs...
But the songs which I'm hooked onto most would be songs from HSM2...
I like to listen to, Everyday...
You are the music in me...
Bet on it...
I gotta go my own way...
Apart from HSM2, I've been STILL listening to...
Ennio Moricone's, Playing Love...
The piano melody just makes me melt, I have no idea why...
Maybe the movie is just very nice...
People! If you haven't watched The Legend of 1900, PLEASE do...
It's the best movie ever...
Speaking of music movies, does anyone have the movie Amadeus?
Please tell me if you do, been dying to watch it... Thanks!


End.

Zupz Zupz!
