Hi friends. Happy day-after-boxing-day day! Anw omg i think our videos from WYCF are super nice. Okay. Lux and if i can help are gorgeous. At least to me. Haha.. Yay love us. And i'm quite bored and nothing to do since caroling is over =(

I'm really sorry about Christmas day and what happened. Quotes email: 

"Dear Christopher,

 

Thank you for the quotation. I’m pleased to confirm your session @ Snow City Singapore on 25th Dec. "

But apparently since we didn't actually sign a written contract so burst. I guess we'll/i'll just have to be more careful next time. 

But anyhow, i hope everyone had a Merry Christmas singing in front of a roaring dinasaur and singing random songs which failed terribly due to a soloist who couldn't deliver xD. And of course randomness at Geoffrey's house! Like silent heart attack and sweet corn (which didn't turn out that sweet after all sadly..) Hahaha.

Well so i guess this really is the end of the whole chorale journey. And i think everyone remembers clearly the ups and downs. The happy and sad. And everyone has their own personal experience. I wouldn't say mine was a joy ride the entire time. There certainly were times where it was painful and tiring and i was like 'omg chris just give up and die you're so not good at this just let someone else do it' but i'm glad that in a way i didn't just give up and die because i've really learnt a lot from everyone. And i think all of us learnt a lot from each other, and we're now so close and if you think about it, we all have a part of each other in each of us in 1 way or another.

I just hope that now that we're going our separate ways, we will all still remain close and once in a while, come back and sing together and recreate what we did in our 2 years in chorale. Because it'll just be such a waste if we don't. 

I think i've told many people this. But a friend once said 'Your batch isn't elitist. It's just elite.'

We really are special =) And so thank you everyone for everything. May chorale batch of 2008 never die!

OH. MY GOD.

The last male who used my toilet today didn't flush omg damn gross it was festering in my toilet bowl until just now oh my god. Gross.

Anyway.

Hi!! I'm back from Japan as y'all probably know and it was quite fun, though the snow wasn't as good as how it is in February when it's right in the middle of winter. (Now is still early winter) Yeah but coz we went with friends as well so had fun skiing with them also la. Well, last holiday i'll have in a while, so i'm glad that i did enjoy it much. =)

Anyway the past few days of caroling have been well, rather intense. And ahem unfortunately, many nice places that were supposed to be nice didn't turn out to be as expected =( But haha i think still quite funny la just try our best and blast and whatever. Anw changi village should be nice, from last year's experience. At least it's in doors and air con and condenser mics. Yep. Well tmr is 2nd last day of caroling! 2nd last day of us singing together for a long time =( Sigh. Gosh, only 15 more days before I go into army. It's suddenly so near. 

Aiya, ok. I shall just enjoy the rest of my holidays because there's not going to be much enjoyment in the next 2 years. So, go me. Go us. Go all the guys! And all the girls too, especially when all the guys are gone. Don't deny it won't be the same without us lovely masculine beings =)))) And it surely won't be the same without you ladies. Eurgh. 2 years of maleness ahead o.O 

Joy to the world -.-

Haha. Well alright think i'll rest soon. Despite having more time to sleep this morning, i'm somehow still unable to sleep much. Maybe i also shouldn't get too used to sleeping too much. Sigh. Ok see what my body decides to do tmr morning. haha. Ok goodnight! See y'all tomorrow =)

Thanks for the leg cramp =(

Emotion: Disappointment. 

1st thought that came to my mind: Don't you take physics? Ever heard of friction between butt and table which will cause table to topple? 

2nd thought that came to my mind: xD Neh not telling any of you heeheeheee...

Well anyway whatever. Don't know why i'm feeling disappointed.

For everyone else, I AM LEAVING FOR JAPAN TONIGHT AND COMING BACK ONLY ON 21ST OF DECEMBER IN TIME FOR THE 2ND PERFORMANCE OF ESPLANADE!!!!! PRAY THAT I HAVE MY VOICE AND MY LIMBS IN PLACE SO THAT I CAN SING! YAY. HAHAHAHA. 

=)))) Well ok see you all and good luck for marina and the 1st night of esplanade performance. 

=(

I guess that marks the end of my/our/j2s journey in Raffles Chorale. But I think we really pulled of a more than decent performance tonight =) Or last night. And lux had goose bumply moments at the end at 'natum' and i was really like wow. Maybe it was just my imagination or what but oh well. I'll keep it as that, as a happy memory. And the ending of if i can help was quite yummy too i think =)

Well anyway. 

Hrm.

Okay i've a lot of things i feel like saying and want to say. But neh. Maybe another day... 

Well i think imma blow my hair and sleep and prepare myself mentally for a croaky voice tomorrow. Sigh. I'm almost 100% sure i'm going to sound like a frog and have a range of a ******* tomorrow oh sian means i can't sing above like, i dunno. A. Or something =( And have no falsetto. Ahhhhhh. Okay -metally prepares-

Okay. 

Is prepared.

Okay go me.

Yay lubbx yoo J2s.

Okay this is an edit. Anw, just now i bought coffee from gloria jean's, and then i realised that it was so apt, because they use a brand of milk from Australia called 'pura'. =D.

-koped from website- 

As Australia's No.1 milk brand1 not only does Pura milk taste great, it's naturally full of nutrients. Pura Wellbeing has lots of health tips, delicious recipes and nutrition information to help you lead a full and balanced lifestyle.

Haha. Yeah. Reminded me of lux and how beautiful it is. Graaaavisquare.

WAHAHAHA. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Ok NOBODY is allowed to ask me why i'm so high. Just know that it's gotta do with chorale prac today aha and things that happened at prac.

Anyway omg i was thrown back to pre-trip time. Especially when we did wade, and the WONG WONG sound was back i was almost squealing in delight like rhino in bolt and then the tiredness, and omg the nagging at the end when Mr Toh told us to sleep well and everything. Sigh. And tomorrow is seriously seriously going to be our last time as Raffles Chorale. How sad is that =( But i'm glad i had/have this to look forward to after As because i think i wouldn't know exactly what to do with my time otherwise. And this is really where i find all my joy and fun and happiness throughout my 2 years in RJ, and it really just rocks to end it all back with chorale =) (instead of like As... ew) 

OMG. WE BETTER BE SOME DAMN PRO SHIT TOMORROW OH. MY GOD. IT'S MY LAST TIME PERFORMING AS CHORALE!!!!! =((((((((((((((((((((((((( -SCREAMS- Ahhhh nooo. Oh gosh omg ok. =((( Ah this is damn sad. I'm damn sad. =( okay i will sleep soon. Rest my voice. (So that i can sing the best ever 'calida') And pwnz like some cow tomorrow. =) Yaaaay. GO US. 

=)

=))))))

Well ahaha love is just such a wonderful thing. Whether it's love for people or for animals or for things we like doing. It really really can make someone's mood go from zz ZHOOP to =DDDD. And i guess it's all the =DDD times that we all treasure and look for. Aha. Ok so must treasure. Treasure big big. 

Okay i'm starting to become incoherent. Goodnight! Yay go us may we pwnz the concert. =)

Fwah. Yay really got exponential increase =D. I have to stop conducting with my fingers they're really tired o.O Anyway so happy that we found the problem of why lux is going sharp, which is funny because lux used to go flat on trip. Must be rearrangement of people, or difference in balance or something? Oh well nehhmind the almighty Mr Toh will be back tomorrow haha and hope we don't get screamed at. Okay la but if we sing like today then i think we'll be fine =))))

Anw yayyy i passed my basic theory internal evaluation today! My real test is on 6th Jan and the driving centre (for dunno what reason) requires me to pass the internal evaluation at least 2 weeks before. So that means 22nd Dec, which is 1 day after i return from hols. So i realised only yesterday that i would have to take the test this week! So i faster booked and mugged for 3 hours until 1230am haha. So i am chao tired now. I shall sleep soon when my hair dries. Anw tmr can wake up late wootz!!!! 

Goodnight y'all! Yay we rock. Lux is niiice.

Oh gosh i'm such a fat pig. After prac i went to eat swensens, came home, and slept until now. And it's 7pm and oh well, time for dinner. Zzzzz. Omg i was supposed to exercise yo? Okay i don't care better do it tomorrow morning. Go me.

Anyway. Aha. Message from Mr Toh y'all!

"Yes, will be flying back in 10 hours time.  Will see you all on wed night.  Please don't shock me.  Heart is weak ...."

Aha. Good luck to us. But today i think was vast improvement already la. So yay. Maybe exponential curve then ZHOOP upwards!!! Yay go us!

That day i was dunno doing what and it just occurred to me that ggxx! WYCF and caroling really are the last time I'm going to sing before eons later. And like ahhh this is so sad! You know it's like, throughout the 2 JC years, it's like. Of course i knew chorale would end one day. But somehow, there were always things to look forward to. Like after SYF last year, there was open house to look forward to. Then RCS trip. Caroling. This year's concert. Trip. And many of us thought trip would be the end of it, but no! In came vocal delights. And then i thought that would be the end. But No! Next came RI concert. And i thought that would again be the end. But no, now there's WYCF and caroling. But i really see no way in which there can possibly be another choral performance after caroling is over. 

And i think that's when i'll know that it's really, truly, over for good. Not until a few years later.

I now hope that everything just ends well and we have no regrets about all the performances we've put up. I know i will, because chorale means all the world to me.

superimpo(SING)       Czhao says:

yeah coz u suck.

adverti(SING)       (8)I Stay In Love(8) says:

OMG

OK IM GOING TO DO IT NOW

superimpo(SING)       Czhao says:

HA

well, thank me julian. i made u go

;)

The wonders of reverse psychology =DDDD.

adverti(SING)       (8)I Stay In Love(8) says:

yeah thanks

actaully maybe not

Or not........

Okay i think i reached the peak of my bitchiness today.

But i shan't display for the whole world to see exactly what i said. And no, it's not about the going by car thing. Coz loads of people go by car, like julian, and cat..... Well, maybe they just go by the same car that's all. But still, it's by car.

And i realised why i kept feeling like puking the whole day today. It's because last night i drank 4 glasses of wine during the wedding dinner and all the alchol was probably eroded my stomach walls and all the mucos and cilia dunno what things in my stomach. So yeah i kept tasting bile and like heart burn that kind of feeling. Not nice. But i wasn't even vaguely tipsy last night lor. Yikes. I hope my liver isn't secretly dying o.O

Okay bored. Goodnight!

Hi. I haven't blogged in eons!! Oh gosh. Ever since As ended which felt like 1 million years ago seriously but actually it's only been like a week and 2 days. Oh my. And i've seriously been going out every single day and because of that i FORGOT TO FEED MY HAMSTERS FOR 3 DAYS!! -oh. my. God.- What kind of lousy owner am i =(( Ok don't answer that. But anyway so i like gave them a buffet's worth of food yesterday, though it probably doesn't really work that way lol. But anyway hamsters can keep food in their cheeks and stuff so they probably only starved for like 2 days. Or something. =( Oh no. Okay i feel bad. Sorry nana and lumpy (who is as skinny as kialiang now). I promise you 2 that i'll feed you more kay. Lubbxx yoo both! =))) Oh and since my birthday went by, they're both >1 year old now, since they were given to me as last year's birthday presents. Haha. My sister was threatening to tie lumpy with a ribbon and give him to me as a present this year. Lumpy! In a ribbon! So cheapo i'm sure reuse present lol. But lucky she nehh do it. 

Anyway i think i've been to orchard like practically everyday except wednesday this week. Gosh. Okay not really after all. Hmm. Well i was there last friday, and thursday, and yesterday, and today. And possibly tomorrow. Totally. And i'm totally overspending like a cow and eating all sorts of junk food and big meals and OMG I'M GOING TO GROW FAT. Ahhh. Cannot. Sian. Okay i think after prom i'm so going to just like slow down all these funky stuff and get like really hot and all.

Okay i knew i shouldn't have eaten the 2 mini brownies like half an hour ago. Now i got sugar spike and i'm less sleepy. And all that brownie is probably going straight to my hips. Oh sian. I shall go er. Try to sleep lol. Yay getting prom stuff tomorrow. Woot.

Goodnight!

*giggles*

I love being 18 omg can drink without feeling any guilt at all! Ahahaha. And i love vodka a lot a lot. xD

Ahaha ok anyway i got new favourite song! It's Circus by Britney. Ahaha bye Beyonce/Mariah. Britney's back.

Ahhh i'm super excited for tomorrow's prac and at the prospect of screaming at tenors again AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. =DDDDD. I really am an evil SL. =( 

All eyes on me in the center of the ring
Just like a circus
When I crack that whip everybody gon' trip
Just like a circus

Don't stand there watching me, 
Follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go, We can make a dance floor
Just like a circus

I am at peace with the world =)

When i walked out of the exam hall, it was really just like omg the air is fresher, the colours are more vivid, the grass is greener, the sounds were clearer, and even like, ew, i can see that guy's pimples more now. 

Yay h3 was like the most disgusting paper ever ahaha it just went from bad to worse and just worse and worse and 20 mins left i was like 'OMG 20 MINS FASTER COME I WANNA END THIS SHIT' and then like 1 min left i was like 'OMG WHY SO FAST SHIT HAVEN'T FINISHED' so wubber GGXX HHYY ahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahhahahah.

Wubber =) I'm just damn happy that it's over! And i really can just do whatever i want now! 

Anyway my new favourite song which is omg so nice love beyonce. Bye britney/mariah.

OMG I AM IN THE SCHOOL LIBRARY AND DYING BECAUSE I AM DAMN SIAN AND DON'T WANT TO STUDY ANYMORE AHHH 2PM FASTER COME YAY 2 MORE HOURS OK I SHALL WASTE MANY MANY TIME EATING THEN 2PM WILL COME EVEN FASTER.

BUT THIS IS BAD BECAUSE I SHOULD STUDY BECAUSE MY H3 IS O.o AND URGH OKAY GO ME I PRAY FOR BIG BIG SUPERSIZE MIRACLE THAT THEY HAPPEN TO COME OUT THE THINGS THAT I STUDIED AND KNOW HOW TO DO BECAUSE IF THEY DON'T THEN AHAHAHHA GGXX HHYY THEN BYE BYE OMG GO ME.

Ok i knew why my brain was telling me not to shave this morning. Because if i hadn't, then nobody would have liked to groped my face because their hands would have met with stubble and then they would go 'ouch ouch ouch' and then my face would be nice and clean and not green.

So ANYWAY. My day was quite nice up till the few minutes before 10am. Oh i realise the people on my left and right during physics are quite annoying because they do super fast. Like they flip the page then i was only like starting on the page on the right then make me panic. Urgh. So ahaha physics was quite ok because i was like lala-ing through most of it and yawning half the time. Urgh no wonder i got qn 6 wrong. But yeah towards the end i panicked coz everyone was like checking answers and i still have many questions left and the examiner was like '15 mins left' so i was like omg ok faster. But lala ok lucky mcq turned out to be really great. 

And THEN. 

URGH

And THEN. I went to bukit batok driving centre to register for driving. Urgh i probably won't get to start practical until eons later because i have to pass the basic and final theory tests first. And in order to take the tests, i have to pass the internal evaluation 2 weeks before the real tests. So like. Basic internal evaluation, 2 weeks, basic theory test. Final internal evaluation, 2 weeks, final theory test. So lala that's like 1 month gone liao then hello Pulau Tekong. 

Urgh.

Wubber lala eventually i will pass =) And i shall just enjoy December with like all my wonderful friends who are, well, sometimes not that wonderful when they do strange stuff to you. But it's okay. Because i know they're all just jealous that they can never, ever, look like how i did today. =)) 

I mean, please, who has such natural blush, such perfectly contoured fingernails, such gorgeous eyelashes?

     And hopefully i don't have to do strange things in school after physics paper o.O

xD Lubbx my birthday man. Ahahah i remember last year in RCS where i got the shock of my life when they produced a cake for me!!! Yay i miss RCS and last year's trip to prague etc and haha one of the RCS members (whose boyfriend proposed to her on the flight to prague last year) is getting married end of Nov so Imma get to see everyone again! Fun fun. Okay goodnight!! Good luck bio kids if you see this =)

Reach out and touch me! (before i go insane..)

HMMMMM i suddenly miss coffee bean coffee and my triple latte lol. It's been some time since i last drank, i think before As when i went to study in school....

Well anyway today's been vaguely fruitful (like a fruitstall) so far it's amazing how i'm still learning new things about h3 and i'm going to be tested in A levels in 4 days' time. Well better late than never i suppose! Ahaha. Okay anyway plan is to study as much as i can and just pray and hope that i can do the exam on thursday and hopefully well enough for like a distinction =) Okay i made that sound really easy lol. Ok whatever just try my best!  =DDDDDistinction!

Anyway i think i'm going to get fat. Or i've already gotten fatter coz i've been eating out every meal since Friday! Well ok i just ate order-in pizza hut so it's still counted as not home-cooked food. Ahh unhealthy. Ok after As need to go exercise etc or not go army sure die. Thursday i tried to run and i just died after 20 mins lol. 

Okay i'm bored. Anyway random but i think Mariah's Emancipation of mimi is quite a nice album. 

Omg the new hotmail is really irritating because it keeps hanging my computer and takes extra long to load. Urgh. But i'm too lazy to change to gmail or whatever coz i think hotmail is prettier haha and i'm too lazy. 

Anyway chem today was some Dabian but it's over. So yaaaay NO MORE CHEM FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER. Because I'm quite sure that i will not do chem in uni or whatever. And even if whatever i study has chem in it it's probably going to only be a small proportion of chem. Yaaaaaaaay. The table that holds all my chem stuff can now finally be cleared to make way for other things. The chair that holds my physics can't though =( Haha and i haven't cleared the floor space that holds econs though it's still strewn all over the place. Maths has been packed away into a nice little box =) 

So anyway crashing prac today was super fun! I miss singing. But i really cannot sing in male voice. Or at least, i've to slowly get everything back in order again because my throat felt itchy just after singing for a while =((( And i think the nicest thing i sang today was 'calida' in alto part so. Oh well. And we're super out of tune haha but never i'm sure we'll be able to get back in shape in time! J2s we need sectionals man.

Yay ok joy i'm celebrating my birthday with my family tonight! Yee Chuin's coming over too and it was so scary coz i had to call her mum to ask for permission haha but luckily that went fine and i'm still alive and didn't get screamed at xD.

Okay i go bathe etc etc. Seeee ya!

Okay i dunno if this is new or old but Gerald found this on facebook and it's hilarious. xD
