dreams+teams! i love my buddy! (: i miss her already. ): it was a stressful week. i slept a total of 37hrs in 7 days. sorry to all the ppl i screamed at for no good reason. harsh words were said to one another. tension was high. but we all didnt care. this is not the way it's suppose to be. i hope this doesnt change anything. any one of you. im sorry to have caused the problems which i did. im sorry some of you had to be my punching bag. im sorry for neglecting the section. all is but a passing cloud.
i did learn new things. abt british culture, the ppl there and the ppl here. what shocked me was what i found out abt the ppl here. you think you know someone but you cld be wrong. so so wrong. but im glad i did dreams+teams. there were good times. (: now we have to get back to our own lives. it feels like they suddenly took us out of our little world and now suddenly shoved us back in and expecting us to get on with our lives as per normal without any adaptation time, like there was no disruption at all. i have like 7 tests next week. it's ridiculous. im damn tired. i shld be doing hwk and mugging. i really need ice-cream now.
we cant even sit together for recess. one comes and another leaves. some dont come at all. and some cant cuz they're not there. the last time we went out was in june. its august. dont you think its a bit long. when was the last time we really talked to one another. we can only go out for big occasions. but things are happening between those outings. we're still in school. what will happen when we leave. i guess things change. it's only normal. our lives dont revolve around the same people anymore.
im tired. bye. angeline.

There can be miracles, when you believe Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill Who knows what miracles you can achieve When you believe, somehow you will You will when you believe
we believed in ourselves and the band that's why we got what we deserved :D A GOLD WITH DISTINCTION with the score of 87.17% yea baby. Percussion did well on stage too (even though some stuffs went wrong towards the end :/ ) but we rock! The coolest section in band :) ahahahaha!

OHMYGOD!
GOLD WITH DISTINCTION!
FIRST IN OUR DIVISION!
seriously. what more can we ask for. i really didnt dare hope and when i heard it instantaneous scream. i jumped. i screamed. i cheered. i laughed. i hugged. i was like some mad woman okay. ppl around me were all crying cuz they were too happy. people actually had to go out of the hall cuz we screamed too loudly. i like knocked into a lot of ppl. i didnt care. i just continue screaming. (:
the day was actually quite bad. 1. the bandroom blacked out. AGAIN. 2. the bell stand died in front of vch. 3. and aft fixing it, we were told we're not allowed to use it. 4. nobody told me i had to pass bag to arina and we needed to go into the hall soon so we were FREAKING OUT cuz bags are not allowed. 5. merry widow was FULL of mistakes. ms sia was quite pissed. ): 6. when we reached school, the bells died again. 7. i cldnt find my sch u cuz i realised in a hurry before we left for vch i left my sch u in the canteen and it wasnt there anymore. i looked everywhere, i even asked the vp. yes. i was that desperate. 8. shit happened on the bus. which totally killed what little of my good mood i had left. 9. worst part. i didnt get enough sleep the day before.
i want to thank the following people.
BEATRICE!
SHARON!
SUE-ANN!
CASSANDRA!
CAROLINE!
SARAH!
RACHEL!
KATHLEEN!
i know they all woke up quite early to come down to support us and they were bored stiff during the whole competition. THANK YOU DARLINGS! IT REALLY MEANT A LOT. (:
sarah and caroline came up with the funniest things. but i can understand why.(: its partly cuz its true and it just shows how bored they were. beatrice yeong: you woke up at 7 not for the band or for anything. you woke up at 7 for ANGELINE YAP! (: now, doesnt the world seem brighter already? (: and sharon ah. swensens. hmmm... see first lah huh. (: i discovered smth. sue-ann and rachel are super similar! like the way they do their hair and the way they sit. they even had similar lunch! scary. why i never realised till this day, i do not know. kathleen and rachel are hilarious together. looking at them is like looking at two guys fight. i think they tried to seduce each other. hmm... they have the potential to look perverted. (: what they say doesnt even really make sense! elaine was laughing so hard. she cldnt even talk. i didnt get my ben and jerry's in the end. ): i saw kinder surprise! OHMYGOSH. but they're like really ex. ):
OH. WE SAW PRETTY FIREWORKS. i think fireworks are romantic. (: im quite delirious right now. and im pretty certain my voice is gone. lalala. i dont care. im happy. (: im so happy i ate pearls okay. yesterday i was too nervous cant sleep. now im too happy cant sleep.
MY SECTION! (:
i look weird. ohwell. we've worked hard and improved. but we still need to work harder. there were mistakes. major ones. mistakes that should have never happened aft all the constant reminders. other ppl are so much pro-er and zai-er. we will and shall have ppl saying tt abt us as well. as our seniors have once put it, OUR HEARTS BEAT AS ONE. no one is to break the circle.(:

heh. i forgot. oops. sarah's going down to support us tmr. so are a few other people. lovely wonderful fabulous people. i just realised yishun town is a wind orchestra so does tt mean they dont have a timpani player? HEH. so loser-ish blogging twice. ohwell.
i think everyone's freaking. JIAYOUJIAYOU!

it's time.
hola. nbc is in 14hrs -screams i found a huge pack of ruffles at home. im eating them as i blog. i eat when im stressed and nbc gives me a reason to binge damnit. im gna finish the whole pack. :/ i also owe a lot of hwk. i dont mean to. its just when im stressed and/or tired i just cant do hwk at all. ): i shall try to finish everything aft the competition.
yishun town is like playing merry widow also. and they're like directly in front of us. like wtf. i hope their timpani player is a skinny frail boy and not some big muscular man. i say male is because timpani players are rarely girls unless they dont have a choice. eg, girl sch. and what does tt say. SEXIST. i told beat abt it and she told me to change song. i think she thinks we can learn a new concert piece in like 2min. there will be like comparison. merry widow is a seriously overplayed piece. to be honest, im terrified.
im just not confident playing snare for double eagle, there's just not enough practise. though im more confident in playing timpani for merry widow but the timpani's not mine and i've never played timpani for competitions before and i've completely no idea what's to be done. i dont think i'll have time to tune or get used to the pedal tmr and im in heels damnit. like i need to be steady or i'll just die. what if tmr i completely freak and dont dare to play! i guess i'll have to wing it. not much of a choice right. hopefully my nerves dont get the best of me and i can perform up to standard. what if the sticks get stuck in my sleeve! they always do! and im not rolling them up. UNGLAM. there's just so much tt can go wrong. it has gone wrong in the past. i dont want a repeat of syf. it took me like FOUR mths to get over tt. what if the yishun town timpani player is better which is likely to be the case cuz he's a guy! guys are just stronger so it means he'll be louder and tt wins. plus he'll totally be zai-er cuz im not zai at all. i really want to be zai tmr. -pouts. like i dont expect a gold tmr but somehow i still really really want it. i paid 8 bucks just to sit in the hall for like half a min and listen to results okay. damn. i want that gold.
the whole bandroom blacked out today. im sry. i was the one tt started the screaming. FIRST REACTION OKAY! priscilla's really scared of the dark.
eheh. can i not go tmr. IM SCARED! ): im such a loser -shakes head.
shit. i ate half the packet already. im gna go watch friends. no i shall go read dracula. (: adiós

bonjour! express yourself day. okay lah. nth much. heh. some of the clothes were damn cool.
percussion! sorry! made y'all wait for me for so long. heard abt y'all waiting outside my class, looking irritated. SORRY! ):
michelle dear, thanks for the nuts. they're fabulous. (:
band was band. i still dont think im in the wrong. i need to practise. maybe the stress has finally caught up. i've been crankier these days. maybe its the lack of sleep. i think its the lack of sleep. i guess there is some element of stress. seven days and counting. i just realised we have like only 2wks to prepare for national day. EH. darlings! WE HVNT DECIDED WHO'S PLAYING BASS DRUM! can we like just not have the bass drum. ): they're breaking farewell tradition. im not happy abt tt. extremely displeased.
i dont know how i feel these days. im very lost. i dont know whats happening around me. everything's going too fast. i dont have time to stop and think. i just feel. empty. i dont feel anything. and i dont know whether that's good or bad.
flo, you're not fat. im serious. if you're fat then im like the size of russia. plus i totally had a fab ice-cream crepe today its damn good but oh man the fats. ):
im seriously sleepy. -yawns plus i need to go do work. ): oh. i shall go watch merry widow. (:
p.s. celeste is damn cute. and not zai. say yo! (:

i am sitting here with my amaths 5YS on my lap. So ya, i am making an effort to study. just trying to slack off abit :) i keep thinkin that today is wed and there will be top period. NOt that i am lookin forward to wad's goin on durin top period. it just felt so wednesday but ah.. i don't recall being free after school on wednesday :]
don't know why but i have been feelin so tired lately. week 3 is not even here yet and i am already half dead. D: i am more worried of piano then NBC. maybe it's because it's much nearer. and i can already feel the stress. take today for example. Karen(piano tchr) told me that i have only 2 more lessons to my exam. and i realised i either deproved or need TONS of practices as i am not there yet. i can't sing.. gosh. the only confident part for aural is the rhythmic part whr one is supposed to clap the rhythm and say the time signature then the second one is the answerin of qns after they played a short song or sth. i think it's too obvious la. I. CAN'T. SING.can i just say that i am tone deaf? or maybe mute or sth? ahhhh!!! my exam pieces definitely still need more practices.. Karen decided to let me and another of her students play the pieces for each other. yup. i suck. ): i totally jus went OMG.. Can i don't play for her? ahh. CGSS ppl actin like this is soo dui lian at least song C was better than her.. okay still not that good. HOW?HOW?HOW??? i think i am becomin more and more paranoid.. hmm
you know sth? i think i have stage fright. okay. i know i have stage fright. jus freak out whenever i am supposed to play for someone. the moment the pressure is there. i freak. i am kinda worried for NBC. hope that nth will go wrong. :/ first stop.. expressions must be added in. hahahas then we shall worry abt stage fright.
science tuition was interestin. i told my tchr to go thru mole concepts again. we came across this qn on Copper(II) Carbonate and Copper (II) sulphate. then i must state what i observed.. i still rmb i asked this stupidest qn ever.. "what is the colour of copper(II) sulphate" and she gave me one standard reply. "what do you think?" okay like that was gonna help. and i thought of sherilyn with her copper (II) sulphate bottle and said blue.. "blue what?" my guesses were salt? Precipitate? Solid?... then i stared at the word SOLUBLE salt.. ahhh.. solution. And to think that i did the experiment before. hahahahas
