Sleep x infinite

It seems as though I've triumphed over the stinging feeling of hunger and fatigue; I've went past the stage of lapsing in and out of consciousness while poring over my NM3880A readings.
I'm incredibly wide awake now.

Sometimes, I have absolutely no idea as to how to manage those kids. They can absolutely infuriate me with their behaviour, and still make me smile at the end of the day. And this is to all the teachers who are putting up with the nonsense from their students, with no regards to how old these prats are.
Happy Teachers' Day.

As I heave a sigh of relief this very moment, I'll have to prepare to take it back the next minute.

Green Carnival 2008

I loved the Green Carnival for the fact that the lot got to try whole new styles of song presentation. Still, I think our strength is still in presenting Mandarin pop. Great music, despite the crazy practice schedules and the clash with the Welcome Tea, but it was timely advertising.

Welcome Tea 2008

With Jack chairing this year's Welcome Tea, the least I could do was to lend a helping hand. The music made still amazed me, and the chemistry, although slightly shaky, was enough to pull off both days without much glitches. Of course, we had the not-so-fun parts of moving band equipment up and down YIH (that could have been a good thing after all). But it was all worth the while. Thanks to all instrumentalists, vocalists, seniors (esp. Winson, Raymond and Kailing) and the wonderful audience we had who packed the function rooms to maximum capacity on both days. You are all the motivation we need to keep making music 'live', and I'm totally looking forward to streaming session next week (or you can say I'm plain sadistic. *Laughs*).


And there is no greater joy than to drag Jack around Orchard Road with me.
ROFL.

Yes I still do

The last thing I remembered before I concussed was watching my computer screen black out. And I had no recollections for the next 2 hours, until I jolted up in pain because my right hand had this stinging sensation from the lack of blood. I can never really get enough sleep, can't I?


Cherie had to remind me to collect my paycheck when I went for tuition yesterday. I'm terribly absent-minded. And the two reputable monsters of the tuition centre seemed harmless. Alex and his younger brother Nicholas, on the other hand, were sooooo cute! I had the rash impulse to pinch Nicholas' cheeks, but I figured I had to behave myself in front of the children. Another consolation of the day was hearing from two of my students that they did well for their CA. I felt that tolerating their nonsense was well worth it after all.

And I made the husband angry again, for the Nth time. I should be beheaded the next time I turn up late, or I'll never be able to live with this guilty conscience of mine. Now I know why it has been raining for days on end. Anyway, it was another board-gaming session at Gordon's house with half of my brain cells burnt off from the tuition sessions, so it was little wonder I got trashed for all games. And I loved the conspiracy with Gerlynd during Containers! It effectively pissed off both the boyfriends, and we had a kick out of it.
*Laughs*
Then the couple brought us out for ice cream at 10.45pm. I know it sounded insane, considering we left the ice cream parlour close to midnight. A huge thanks to Gordon for sending Jack and me home, and for the chat we had on the way. Haha I didn't know there was someone else who was tracking my relationship with Jack; Gordon even remembers that Jack and I are almost 6 months old! Jack's got a good friend, after all. And omg Gerlyn's a lucky girl, despite the fact that they fight like the greatest rivals ever. They seem so much like my parents.
*laughs*

And it suddenly dawned upon me that 6 months ago, I was still an irrational person who almost veered towards the wrong lane. And then someone came and pulled me out of my day dreams and into this fairytale that I never want to say goodbye to. And I still very much miss you even though I just said goodbye less that 24 hours ago, and will meet you less than 24 hours later.

Geyao rocks

I was actually pretty happy with the outcome of today's band practice. Although 'Big Yellow Taxi' is still giving the husband some problems, but I believe he'll work it out. It's a psychological thing, I'm sure. And I believe YY's caught a bug or something, because he's been coughing for the past week or so. All of us are praying. But apart from the occasional glitches, I guess you can never go wrong with Shaun (our event MD!) on the drums, YuQing on the keyboard, ZhangDa on lead guitar, CaiYu on bass and the JiaHui on acoustic guitar.
We basically rock.
Oh and not forgetting the our Welcome Tea on the 27th and 29th! Omg we're still very much tied up with other stuff but, press on everyone, I believe we'll put up a fantastic show for everyone's listening pleasure!
And I'm totally looking forward to the new batch of Geyaorians! I love streaming when I'm not the one being streamed~!
*Evil laughter*

Oh man. And my timetable just got screwed! I'm supposed to empty my Tuesdays, but now I've got 2101 tutorial instead! So much for being so proud of myself for emptying out one day... CORS is one screwed system.

And I foresee myself being forklifted out of my bed tomorrow morning. Her Majesty has ordered for my royal accompaniment for her shopping trip tomorrow, so I should go hit the sack now.

I love you, I'm just sorry

I didn't have the intention to drag myself out of bed this morning. And I dind't have the intention to lug my laptop to school, if it hadn't been for the fact that CORS didn't want to give me the tutorial slot that I wanted. Omg the world sucks.


Gordon can mock all he wants, but I just had the best bread pudding of my life yesterday at Quality Hotel. And I'll gladly pay $10++ just for bread pudding alone.
*Screams*
And it acts as another huge incentive when we've had 7 hours of board games before that and our brain juice was just drying up.


Omg I feel like hell. I just hate offending people I love, and then regretting it because I don't know how to heal those wounds.
I'm such a horrible bitch.

I need to wake up now.

Down and broken

Shucks.

I didn't feel like waking up today, if it hadn't been for the fact that I've got Mini-you staring down at me the moment I pried my eyes open. It's miraculous to see how attached I can grow towards a stuffed toy, considering how taboo they were in my life. Now it's become the extra push I need to wake up every morning. Perhaps I realised that I shouldn't be wasting the time we have.

Alot of things came crashing down. Apart from the mangled band practice on Friday, yesterday wasn't much better with alot of ignorant people around. I was hoping that those people would let me off, considering it wasn't quite the occasion to discuss such matters. But they chose to disappoint me, time and again.
*Sighs*
So again, I reiterate my point here. I'm not interested in entertaining those very blatant questions, because you won't get those answers you're hoping for. I don't have a thing for compliance, so it's either you give up your questioning and let live, or continue to ask questions with no answers to them.

I feel so crumpled up.

And I'm so sorry for calling so late at night. I just needed to seek solace, and I knew you had it.

I need to wake up

Felt really quashed at the end of yesterday. 3 lectures to rush in and out of, and plenty of stairs to climb. The first week of school didn't seem so much of a bed of roses after all, despite having my tuesdays and thursdays free. And I freakin' need to beat that winding queue at the Central Forum bookstore and get my NM textbook by next Monday.

Band practice wasn't as satisfactory, partially because we were robbed of our main instrumentalists and vocalists. Oh, and the disappearing people as well. Sometimes some people need to get their prorities right. It's no use doing well in academics when you live such a sad life trying to burrow under huge stacks of books (and money, in future) and anime. I really wonder if being nice to you is a crime. And I'm calling out to those bigheads at Chinese Society; please, if you wish to have our people perform there in future, kindly tell us at least a month in advance, or PAY us. It's simple; money makes the world go round, especially in our case, since it's always been CS which has been keeping our membership fee. And it matters even more now that I'm handling the accounts. I just hope it won't be too pressing for Jia Yan to keep handling the claims from us.

And now I have to figure out a way to cheer the husband up.

Shucks.

Rambling

I have no idea why it seems as though I'm the only one who's enthusiastic about the new school term.
*Sighs*

And I seem very redundant here, in the club room, when Heal the World is no apparent concern of mine.
*Laughs*

pre-term cognitive relaxation

Omg.
I haven’t been blogging here for donkey days.

The advent of the beginning of the new school term signified that 1. it’s time to rush like ants on a hot pan again and 2. more performances are on the way. I wonder if it’s actually a good thing that I’m not performing for all the upcoming events. It either means I totally suck, or that I totally suck. Or that I suck big time. Oh well.

And those lucky imps at SMU have got Settlers’ CafĂ© right in the basement of their campus!
*Envious*
It’s still in the soft launch stage, but the atmosphere’s definitely much more inviting and, strangely, it exudes a homely feeling. It’s probably just the furniture from IKEA. But we learnt a couple of new games today, so I’m pretty contented with today’s outing. I love double dates to Settlers’ with Mr. and Ms. G. The Love Guru made me laugh so much, I burnt off all the sake I had for dinner.

Sometimes I just don’t like the way some people make it seem as though whatever they are doing now seems very sophisticated and sorts. We don’t need all that bullshit of fancy names and bombastic terms. Perhaps you’re a believer of condescending behaviour on your part, but trust me, it just made you seem like you’re over-complaining.

Mad mad mad

I've been getting that 'I feel like shit' feeling for the past few days. Agnes that hag just had to infuriate me EVERY SINGLE DAY for the past week, and I've been creating alot of trouble for the SAP consultants for the past month. I really deserve to be disemboweled. And the CORS had to make me repeat that 'I feel like shit' when I came home and found out that I didn't get Science of Music.
WTF.
I'm just hoping that not needing to face that crazy woman on the last two days of my work and throwing in all the points in my General account into bidding for whatever's left of that module will cheer me up.
*Sighs*
And you just have to add to everything by staying out so late at night. Yes, I'm being absoultely unreasonable here.

An angry woman is an angry woman.

P.S: Thanks to Ken for that little gift. I'm totally apologetic for being such a nasty person at times, and you could still tolerate me.

Things will go our way

I must be the silliest woman in the world.

Things went slightly awry yesterday night, and we became two very disturbed people, worrying our asses off some silly thing. Perhaps time will cure your friend, and she'll finally come to realisation over what she's contemplating. And yes, I'm the crazy girl who feels sorry for the other girl. I just can't help it when I've been in a similar spot (although I was that persistant), so putting myself in her shoes came as a natural reaction. But I hope things will stay this way (if it doesn't improve), because I don't stay a nice girl if I have someone else clawing away at my boyfriend.

The night was enjoyable (sorry that it was slightly ruined), and although it was a pity that we missed the fireworks, we had the Fountain of Wealth as a consolation.

I just feel bad that we won't be able to spend more time with each other on Saturdays because my tuition classes, even after school starts.


Some pictures from band prac the other day:

Okay that's all I took. Supper was enjoyable, with Kailing, Raymond a.k.a Leimon, Yuching and her guy, Yuan Hong a.k.a Ah Lai, Yuan Yi, Winson, you and me. I just wished I knew how to drive to your home, so you wouldn't need to travel home alone.


And no one knows how much I love you.
