Damn.. i never knew i could be this lazy. Zero updates for 6 days straight. Sheesh..

Continuing from where i left off the last entry..which was monday afternoon. Right.. after EM3B lecture, i went by the clubhouse as usual. Strangely though, there was no one around. I thought they could maybe be setting up the booth and stuff, so i headed to the atrium.

Fate has a funny way of working sometimes.

As i neared the atrium, i realised there was someone i knew walking towards my direction. Even though my memory bank had made a positive ID of the person in front of me, my brain could not register it as possible. She was truly the last person i expected to bump into around school. Now.. why would i think that.. she is ,after all, still a student of NP, so the odds of me seeing her around in school, no matter how astronomical, was still likely. I guess, i just didn't realised the odds would work in my favour that day.

We talked for awhile, like maybe 2 minutes? She was heading home, and asked if i was going for another lesson. I told her i was checking too see if anyone had set the booth for SCC ticket selling yet. As we were talking, i noticed she was in a good mood, smiling away as we talked. To see her smile, i was really glad for her. I really hope that her happiness will last, and for her to smile always.

you look so beautiful when you smile.



Tuesday. Was a little late for French class... again. Had to do 26 push-ups. I swear, by the time i'm done with French at the end of the semester, i would have done enough push-ups to develop my arm muscles. Had a written test today. Scored 13/20. I guess it was good enough that i passed, but i knew if not for the small mistakes here and there, i would have gotten at least 15 instead.

Went down to clubhouse after class. Steve was already there, disturbing ziqin as she tried to nap. He was like complaining about his stomach cramping yet ziqin didn't want to.. err.. do a 'check-up' on him. In which ziqin replied, and i quote,

"If i touch you, you will say that i'm horny."

That seriously deserved a big L-O-L. I left them to their hanky-panky as i went through the score of 'Moonlight Sonata'. I had printed them out, so it was easier for me to read and 'translate' the keys myself instead of always relying on jiayi or steve. The 2 new bars i'm learning is kind of tricky to get. I was thinking of typing it here, but i don't even know how i should go about doing it. So yeah.. forget it.. me still needs plenty practice.

Shannon came by the clubhouse too, followed by sean, and the 2 music maesters began to jam. Shannon, as usual, was playing with godly skills on the drums while sean was being godly himself on the bass, and the electric guitar. I sort of picked up a new beat from shannon, but as always,i have no idea what genre it is. I did ask shannon where i should go if i really wanted to pick up learning the drums. He introduced to me a place called 'School of Music Clef' (i think..), located at Suntec City... as long as i had a budget of around $500 for a 3 months course. Now i have another reason to get a part-time, but how am i to get one? The concept of getting a job is quite alien to me.. >.> *sighs*



Wednesday.

As yes.. wednesday. 2 words.
Bad day.
or maybe 'emo' day...? =/



Thursday. Happy Deepavali!
Personally, it was happy sleeping day for me. A day to catch up on all the restless nights.



Friday. Celebrated jiayi's birthday in the clubhouse. Simple one though. Small cake. Small amount of people. Small.. erm.. presents? Right... anyway, i was the photographer for the event. Been awhile since i took pictures for anyone. I must say, my photography skills has declined alot. Sorry for the blurry pictures jiayi and chien wen. After lots of solo shots, group shots and random shots, i felt that the clubhouse was.. too lively for me. Everyone was doing something. Jamming, cake-eating, talking, hamster staring, homeworking and stuff. I just felt that i needed to be alone, so i went outside by myself. It was quiet once i was outside, and there was a gentle breeze blowing. The atmosphere was so peaceful and serene, exactly what i needed. Although my choice of location needs careful consideration. I was 'discovered' by huihui, huiyi, ken and fun there. Looks like i need to change my little hiding corner to someplace else..

Went back to the clubhouse at around 7.30 in the evening to practice the 6/8 beat of Larry's song. My ghost note and accenting is not very obvious. Really need to improve on it. Also, his song's signature changes from 6/8 to 4/4 twice. Now that needs even more work. Gonna take every chance i have to practice in the clubhouse. It's not just for Larry's song, if i ever want to improve on my drumming, i have to keep jamming and jamming... and jamming. It won't be easy, not nothing in life ever is. I don't want to give up something i want to do. This is my dream, and i'm going to pursue it to the end, no matter what.

Oh yeah.. steve asked me to perform his song, 战神, for the concert audition. Generally speaking, 战神 is a rock song, and i have said before that rock is something that i can play, so i'm going to play my best for steve.

But.. what happens if it makes it to the concert?



当你走的时候,
回头说一声:“别想我。”
虽然你我知你在开个玩笑,
但是我的心里在想:
“那是不可能的,
因为在我心里,
随时都在想着你"
