and learning fest has kicked off. for those who don't know, it's a 2 day event where saints have no lessons and can choose 4 courses to attend throughout the 2 days (one from the four categories of i-forgot-what. haha). yeps. signed up for
french is fun (thursday)
impress at first sight (today)
URA visit (today)
voice development (thursday)
impress at first sight was interesting. now know what to do and what not to do i guess. haha. URA visit? well, i chose it because i hadn't the slightest idea on what to choose (stuff like the car clinic and other courses i wanted to go for ran out of vacancies! ): sucks)
well ok, i'll be back tmr. haha.

whoa. two concerts in two nights. exhausting. been going back late the past two nights (11pm-12mn range). tired now. argh. well the SA dance concert "rapture" was spectacular. now i can see why they garnered a "gold with honours" at this year's SYF. splendid, all i can say. very worth the $12 ticket price.
ac guitar concert? hmm. lets just say the media crew screwed up. and honestly speaking the ensemble didn't live up to my expectations, sadly. it seems that SA guitar is so much better, judging from our sectionals and practices. i mean, you can seriously hear the difference. the simple lack of footstools could probably say it all..
then again, i shan't criticise too much. after all i was a member for the first 3 months of this year and SA guitar ensemble hasn't had its concert yet. so yesh. when the time comes we'll probably end up on the receiving end of such comments.. wells.

lovely. i just screwed up my auditions for guitar concert (which has been postponed to who-knows-when). yeah. one and a half months of not playing the guitar does this to you, i swear. (playing the bass is a different thing altogether!)
got into photogsoc exco. chief photographer i am = busy job. i have to take charge of all the equipment and arrange schedules for photo shoots of various school events.. argh. timetabling is such a hassle. but since i've been given this job i might as well make the best out of it i guess (:
still have bloody GPP to rush. deadlines' on friday. ARGH.

haven't blogged properly in a few days so i guess i'll do something up now (:
hahahaha. practically bummed my whole weekend away. argh. not good. not good! something's happening to my drive to study/do some work. might be that my priorities are all wrong. but hey. how can one tell. probably if one doesn't get the end results he desires? well, that sounds like me all right.
enough of all the miserable stuff. (:
realised how fortunate i am i guess. and perhaps i shouldn't be so materialistic. don't really need the stuff that i've always been wanting. like that ipod. the huge pencilcase. the VR lens. argh. but wait. i need the ipod. how else can i survive boring bus rides home from school?! and the huge pencilcase too. my current one is bursting at its seams.. AHHHH im going crazy.
/crazymode off
and now i can't think of anything more to write. i need inspiration, badly.

nothing makes sense anymore, really. been feeling gloomy since no-idea-when. i know its been for a while. i pretend i'm happy and enjoying it in front of people when actually i'm feeling horrid, absolutely horrid. when i go home it just all crumbles. i don't break down but i really feel this great sense of uneasiness and sadness.
sheesh. ):

long time since i last blogged. no inspiration. haha. well i had a jamming session. quite productive. love green day's "wake me up when september ends". very nice song and relatively easy to play on the bass as well. (:
other than that i've been quite exhausted physically and mentally i guess. been thinking quite a fair bit about what is going on in the world today. complicated isn't it? its like sometimes you don't understand whatever is going on around you. you want to understand but somehow it just evades you. i've been like this the past few days i guess. oh wells. perhaps its better sometimes not to know too much..

haha well. let's just say i've been so busy with activities the past few days that i haven't had much time to come online since i'm always out till the late hours of the night. (no, not that late, say around 11plus)
econs and physics papers were quite manageable. hope to pass these two papers, seriously. then my results for midyrs won't be that bad after all. yeah. just hope and hope. but i'm not hoping for too much really. have been dealt similar blows before so i guess i'm somewhat immune to it. but that isn't too good isn't it?
went for 2 concerts in the span of 4 days. cat high music awards on friday night and acjc chinese orchestra last night. chma2005 wasn't as good as chma2004 i feel, mostly because of the performers. none actually left me with quite an impression compared to the year before. perhaps its due to the fact that i've been exposed to more rock bands in JC and so i can discern the difference. after all, JC bands tend to be better organized and have better equipment and better skills too i guess. heh well.
AC CO concert wasnt too bad. i'm not much of a fan of chinese orchestra music but still went all the same. hehe. went quite tired since i was out the whole morning shooting the special planes that arrived for the IOC conference right here. 160 shots for 12 hours worth can't be that bad (:
and i await my midyr results with bated breath..
