1:49 PM They are the supposing new batch of free birds.
Those with ambitions that'd enable them to soar up high. Just why must they manipulate their rulable lifes? Leaving their life-long dream on unworthy hands, condemned. Melvin," D'you know that you're selected to go for the npc after your Os?" Me, "Me?! Can't be. Since when'll I go?! Who said that?" Melvin, "Don't you know? It's all instructed by Mr Lim." Friday, June 27, 20084:20 AM It's currently 4:28 in the morning, and I'm still at a loss. I've absolute no idea why am I staying up so late, every single night. Homework streaming in faster than one can cope. Not including something called tuition, that worsens them all. Time table hastily packed by the school committee. Ruined students' learning stamina. And when one found exam's nearing. People will start rejecting important lessons. Given my working pace throughout the past few days. I seriously doubt I can accomplish anything. Soon pressure were asserted slowly onto you. Time will then not be by your side. I NEED A 25th HOUR! Thursday, June 26, 20087:18 PM The applause faded, silence entered. Emotion stirred, lost in his own World. Eyes focused, he was on his own Tension aroused, he knows not what to do. The first words said; the first note played. This is the beginning and the end. Continue, or it'd be a squander. Since there's no turning back. Memories flashed before him. He was engulfed in his own work. A dream that he'd never want to wake up from, Left him blank and alone. Questions filled his mind. Perhaps, faster than a lightning strike. There doesn't seemed to be an answer for them, As he was left stranded, all alone. A sudden fumble was heard from the front. A sign of distress could be seen on his face. Only then he heard another voice from afar, "Move on confidently and all will be over." The last note played; The crowd took over. Applause filled the hall, a mark of completion. Every thing ended in a split of a second. He was left, lost for words. He stood up and faced the crowd. His steps, heavy. His head's spinning; His hand's tired. He bowed. No sound was heard for the next few moments. Thoughts of what happened ran through him. He recalls nothing. Except the dream-like vision that flashed before him. He found respite amidst the cheering. Quiet as it seemed, he closed his eyes. A whole new World of memories laid in front of him. He took on the path and walked towards the misty surroundings. "What are you doing?" He found himself brought back into reality. The crowd continued to cheer; The music continued playing. Once again, he was lost in reality, alone. The piano recital ended quite smoothly last night. It all started in Esplanade on March 28th, 2007 when our teacher suddenly announced that a piano recital should be held somewhere, sometime. And so it really happened. It was, in overall, quite a success despite the occasional hiccups of the performers (the class). Loneliness and resentments were inevitable, but all in all, I'd like to experience it all again (I must have gone insane last night)! Saturday, June 21, 20088:59 PM June 19th, 2008!! A memorable day indeed!! Stayed up all night to finish my music composition for the November 2007 paper as practise. How dumb I was! I even set aside the sostenuto pedal (the piano's middle pedal), thinking that I can practise my "O" level solo practical minor piece without disturbing others! I even thought that given my many years of learning the piano, the extreme dynamics of the piece could be easily overcome by playing the piece softly altogether. Come to think about it, I'd say that my actions then was just simply, amusing. Just so, unexpected!! The feeling of loneliness came. It isn't a stranger to me after all! Almost when I've decided to spend the night alone, somebody logged on to msn. (Notice the time) ,晨星; 23°to true north. says (2:52 AM): hahaa i thought u've slept. anyway, hello and good morning {: V. says (2:52 AM): hahaha {: V. says (2:52 AM): hello (: {: V. says (2:53 AM): gooodmorning So here goes, I began chatting with the kindhearted Vivien who just can't seemed to sleep. The progress on my composition was slow, but the thought of my unproductivity never came to me as she continued to fill my lonesome night with amusement! Time passes pretty quickly when one's actually enjoying oneself. I've totally no idea why I'd come out with the idea of listening to "4 in the Morning" by Gwen Stefani when the clock strikes 4, but I'd just suggested it. And so we did. Though we didn't manage to play it exactly at 4, we'd managed to play it between 4 and 5 am in the morning! That's also within the 4:something am range. Though it's kind of weird to celebrate such an event, but it's quite fun when you've totally no idea what to do at this hour. If you wants to know what's on the picture, but are too lazy to enlarge it, here's the part of the conversation that was reflected in the picture. {: V. says (4:00 AM): HAPPY 4 O CLOCK IN THE MORNING! ;D {: V. says (4:00 AM): kay random {: V. says (4:00 AM): Hahahaa ,晨星; 23°to true north. says (4:00 AM): HAPPY 4 O CLOCK IN THE MORNING TO YOU TOO!! =D Happy 4 o'clock in the morning!! Sometimes, weird inspirations may come by when boredom sets into part of one's life. Lesson's was boring. As usual, the main character was late for class. If you were to ask me, who else can it most probably be? Right, so the lesson ended one and a half hours earlier than the expected 12. This left me with just too much time to waste before meeting my parents for some shopping trip. So I had this very nice time jamming with Tab. She's just too good with her transposition and her listening that I can't catch what she's playing! Well, she'd still have to work on her "Turkish March" and I need more revision on it too till the day whereby I can play it with her like how I played it with Nelson last year. I was unfortunately tagged by Jee Wang to do some really retarded quiz. I'd hope it'd not take much time... I'VE TO PRACTISE FOR THE RECITAL TOMORROW!! But I'm still going to do this first for fun! THE QUIZ Thursday, June 19, 200811:18 PM In a blink of an eye, our memories of the trip flashed past. Many asked, "Why does this ended so early?". And ended with no definite answer in reply. Was it a memorable trip? It definitely was! Resentments, frustrations, and irritations were unavoidable, but the overall performance of everyone was truly unforgettable. As the lonesome source of light in our darkened rooms dimmed, thoughts of regrets took over my senses. Just wondering if I'm a jinx, the hex of this field trip. Everything seems to not go on smoothly with my presence. Whatever it might be, the field trip's over and I'd too place everything behind. Day one was perhaps the most unforgettable day of this trip. I waited till morning and found out that my mother didn't knew about my expired passport. Fortunately, my dad took up the challenge of bringing me all the way to catch up with the group after having my passport extended. Although it's my 3rd time visiting an Orang Asli's tribe, the Orang Asli's still a tribe that never fails to amaze me with their hunting skills! From weapons to animal traps. From health care to survival. It's an insight for an urban student like me. An eyeopener i should say, to know that there's actually so much to learn in nature! Orang Asli's method of Rice cooking using bamboo.
Day two, a day filled with total excitement and fun! Cottage industry visits was actually the first visit that was guided using Chinese! Really, unexpected. It's always cool to enjoy the passing wind as you speed in a vehicle, but this ride of life can never be replaced by any speeding experience one might have in the City. Speeding at nearly 90km/h on uneven roads in a hilly region... By describing the region, one might actually be mesmerized by the thrill we had! However, the fun isn't as simple as that! We were actually standing on the seats of a pickup-look-alike 4 wheel drive vehicle without any shelter above our heads and definitely no windscreen shielding us from the incoming branches up ahead! Imagine the thrill in stored for us! Cave exploration? The thought of it sends shivers down your spine with an image of an incredibly dangerous expedition that are normally done by only daredevils. Just what tempted me to enter that pitch dark cave with the rest of the daredevils in my school? The cave was pitch dark, dry, dusty, muddy at some point, badly vandalised, with countless bats staying in it. Unpleasant everyone'd say. And I went in. The butterfly shaped exit of the Cave; The 4 of us on the 4-wheel-drive. Day three left us with perhaps the most unpleasant memories when everything was rushing. No proper meals were ate and no proper visitation done. Despite these obstacles in our way, we'd still managed to have a proper forest trek in FRIM! With an amusing instructor! This was planted by man. After so much fun, we'd not forgetting the last hotel we'd stay in and it's state, Selangor. The petronas towers stands tall against the sunlight, but we'd never have a chance to enter it. Just a glimpse of it from afar isn't as satisfying sometimes. Although somewhere deep within our dampened spirit, a thorn was forming, but it was soon removed by the thought of the checking in to the next hotel! The Petronas Towers and us!! Hotel was amazing! 5-stars, some might say, but at the end of the day, it's still an average hotel if you were to ask me. Blame it on the power trip when I was bathing and the time taken for them to send a repairman to check on the problem. As amazing as it may seemed, we'd still had loads of fun in it despite the frequent checks of the teachers and the feeling of being wronged by the hotel staffs. It's just shocking when a group of hotel occupant, occupying the room beside Jee Wang's room started singing "Happy Birthday to You" and people from my school started kicking their door. It's a mistake for all I know. The person who sang that Birthday song just sounded like PZ. Maybe that lured the rest of the 4A and B guys into banging on their door and wronged us while having supper. Oh yes! I'm only treating pizza for this once okay! Last day!! That's also, today!! Time flies, leaving with every moment of our lives out of reach from our future. I've just this everlasting urge to go back and complete those activities that I've done in the past few days! How I wish a time-machine's invented. Organic farm was quite okay although the food provided actually spoilt my appetite. for everything. This however, didn't dampen my spirit to harvesting those appetizing Kang Kongs!! Just too much Kang Kongs! Time isn't with us as we depart from the farmhouse back to Singapore. Footsteps' left behind isn't reclaimable. Ahead of us lies only a few weeks of tedium, adventure, fun, stress, hard work and resilience to "O" levels. How are we going to fare, depends on our mental stamina now. Ad mist all these stress and work, we must nevertheless not forget what we've learnt during the trip and perhaps, use it if necessary for the "O"s geography paper! *Note: I can see why today's unlucky. Thanks Brenda for your reminder! It's Friday the 13th! Friday, June 13, 20087:49 PM Serving in church can be of great fun! The last T. A jamming session, held last Saturday, June 7th, was unfortunately a pretty unproductive one. Well, can't blame the tremendous stress it's band members are facing in their own schools and workplaces... Despite all the lack of enthusiasm in the team's members, we'd still performed well and manage to get one song presentable! Hey! That's an ACCOMPLISHMENT! Service was, amusing. I can't really help but grin to myself like a retarded audience. My sore throat's a good thing after all! It prevented me from bursting into laughter in the middle of the sermon but allowed some space to just shake my head in disapproval to some of the things he's saying. A last minute duty at the offertory sector was most unexpected. I was quite shocked when the head of the youth server's committee also helped in the absence of more than 2 members. This chance brought me a new insight to how people can actually treat the money that they actually want to give as offerings! How disrespectful... Anyway, I had a hard time unfolding it given the small size of that $2 note. Tomorrow will be the departure date for the Geography trip to KL! How exciting! Will update again after the trip! Oh, I've not started packing. Whoops! *gasps* Monday, June 9, 20083:26 PM June the 6th marks the end of the scheduled holiday's lessons. A joyous day waiting to unfold it's pleasant scent of wonders it may seemed; When the Sun rise to a new beginning of another day in the tropical city; When the birds chips with songs of joy in their carefree way of life; When the trees sway to the never ending wind from the cool blue ocean; When most students celebrates the end of their 2 extended weeks of lesson in the June holidays; When a darkened truth in me changed my thoughts about my vocal health. The day was young. I swallowed my very first pills down my ever-dry throat and hurried off to school without saying a word. Everything seemed fine till I attempt to answer my table partner’s question. Words were stuck within me with gasps of air flowing through my hollow throat. I tried hard but it seemed to worsen every time I opened my mouth. I never knew this day would come to me. Medication filled my daily timetable. Oh you ever-confident me! What have you done wrong? Now you're forced to temporarily give up on all those things that you have always liked to do... Isn't this what you deserve? I'VE LOST MY VOICE.
