Viv is forcing me to update, so here it is.

Well it's holidays so obviously there goes the days spent in front of the television or the computer, your choice. And then there are those days when I am forced to leave the comfort of the house and go to random lessons and work, of all things...

But the work isn't too bad. Learnt quite a few things, and the employee half-price policy. Quite good. Bought a couple of things that I shouldn't have... xD Actually well I can always use them later.

And planning for outings with friends. I'm sick of it. So I don't care if people don't reply or not. Got Gloria to organize. It feels good, not needing to stress about if people are coming or not.

State Library on Thurs. For maths and a little of bio. Though if I remember correctly last time we decided to go to State to do bio, nothing much happened at all. Would have been more productive at home.

So I updated. Be happy Viv. I mean GFM#1. xD

So last night was the Grand Concert. Quite amusing actually with the Senior Committee dressing up, no thanks to some 'certain' people who decided not to dress up properly and get into the spirit... But I guess it was better than previous Grand Concerts that's I've played in. And the fact it was my last one? :(
But the turnout was amazing this year. Even the balcony was filled! I guess it must the the awesome posters that Voonie, our wonderful Music Captain put up. And we go to take the posters at the end. Souvenirs right? xD
So to the music. First half was just, don't even go there. Didn't like much of it. So I decided to chat with the Senior Committee and comment on their costumes. Loved Charms' costume and Meeeras'. Elle Woods and Phantom respectively. But I'm straying away from the music. Second half was the best, of course as always since it was Senior Strings, Melba and Symphony Orchestra. Needless to say, we rocked the house with Indiana Jones, and you could tell people loved the Pride and Prejudice, the way people were gasping as they recognized the music, and the silence/reverence with which they were listing to Gabriel's Oboe. (Or Ying the soloist in this case)
Then I got Full Music Colors!! Yay and finally. Won't go on there. But there was this little incident involving Ying and Joan, and simply hilarious that I said I would post. So here it is.
Well if you didn't know, the top of the oboe is a reed with the player blows through in order to make the sound. And it must be kept wet otherwise it will dry out and it'll either be hard to play or no sound will come out. I'm not sure... But moving on. So Ying was just standing there with her reed in her mouth standing like she always does, and Joan walks up, pulls the reed out of Ying's mouth and walks off. It takes Ying around two seconds before she realizes what has just happened and then the turns around and chases Joan. *Shakes head in disappointment* Then a few minutes later, because Ying has been holding her oboe underneath her blazer for quite a while, keeping it warm I suppose, and Joan catches sight of the end of the oboe sticking out from beneath Ying's blazer, and she exclaims.
"Why are you holding a torch Yi-Ling?" and she proceeds to reach for the supposed 'torch' and as she pulls it out into the light, the seemingly never-ending 'torch' is revealed to actually be an oboe! Ta-dah! One amazing magic trick! (A torch into a musical instrument? Who would've thought...?) Just cracked up laughing. A very good way to remember the last Grand Concert of my life. And that's it for now.

Fishy boat

Here we go with another boring commentary. Well for the rest of this week, the SL math classes are joined under the wonderful supervision of the one and only Mr. Renshaw. And can I add his little daughter is soooo cute. ^^ Anyway, so it was Tanji's birthday yesterday and today she had a few balloons left over in her locker. So here I come up with a wonderful idea to scare K.Lee, who by the way is rather scared of balloons and popping balloons in particular. During our math double break, we took a pin and the essential balloon, called out K.Lee into the corridor, and when she saw the balloon, she immediately headed back into the classroom but Tanji popped it behind her as she was halfway through the door. The look on her face was priceless! xD

Anyway, I decided that I'm going to print all this piano concerto and play them. Currently I'm printing Grieg Piano Concerto in A minor, using the school printers. They should be glad I'm printing double sided, even though we're the ones paying for it...

Okay I probably should stop blabbering now. And maybe go on Gaia... heh.

freeeeeeeeeeeeee

Somehow I can't believe that we'll never see our EE again. EVER. Full stop. And I'm still not happy with it. Just scared I suppose that when they do turn-it-in on mine that it'll come up with something like 30-40% plagiarised... I can be sure of one thing. None of those percentages will be from my internet sources, you know why? Since my EE is in subject chinese, and written in chinese, and the internet sources were all in english, you get my point??? xD

Talking about english, today was really awesome. And yes, it's my little skylark. Actually no, it's Fiona's skylark. It's my NO-RA. Geez Em, what's with the laugh when NO-RA sounds like MEE-RA? Hmph. But she's one weird person, you have to agree.

Now TOK. First draft due Wed. If not then you can't do it over the holidays. Well you don't know what to fix. And then final draft due first day back term 3! So stuffed...
