Before I go nuts doing lit review and hw111

Desperate for TIME. because I haven't studied for my quizZES.

Audition was on today, and PHEW! made it, but that's because he needed to check that we really knew the lyrics and not so much the head-voice and all that what-nots.

The choreographer singled me out with some others, and she said, "you need to dance with more life! more energy!"

Disgruntled la! Won't deny though that I didn't put my best foot forward at rehearsal today. But I know come 7Mar, I CAN MAKE IT. I will put 120% on the actual day like I usually do, from past experiences, haha! Not exactly the cliched "leaving the best for the last", just...[you know what I mean. But even if you don't, it's okay.]

okok. i aim to chiong the lit review and 111slides tonight.
maybe finish browsing through socialpsych text.

about my non-existent recess week

Watching NTUPE's concert at the esplanade recital studio last Sunday left me in awe, and undeserving of my G7 certificate. Haha!

I've added another pair of black heels to my collection- shorter heels which hopefully would make me LESS LIKELY to fall flat on my face on stage next Saturday.

Am bent on getting my accessories today, so that I won't have to go scour for it anymore.

Dinner with CM the night before was a good catch-up session (Finally! someone who remembered to meet up...) and my first meal at Fig&Olive was a treat, because he insisted :) Great food, though the portion was huge! Couldn't fathom why there there were so little diners though- people probably prefer sticking to thaiex/swen and the usual. Good thing I got him to decide, else I would have ended up eating baked rice or hawaiian pizza again. Haha!

Allocated parts for perc lunch concert.
Bassdrum. Triangle. Shouldn't undermine those, but can't help thinking that the assessment was a wreck. Still prefer mallets :/

Fulldressreh at VCH tonight.
Proj meeting in sch tmr.

Progress's just upp-ed abit from zero. But, still S.L.O.W. Shoot!

We had a grueling choir prac today - one that made us (especially the Sops) kinda breathless and left us feeling light-headed.

My recess week's officially burnt.
There's choir on Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat. =.= Tues, I have to go to school for a 4 hour percussion session - it's my module, not a CCA.
See my point? I'm going back everyday except Wed (since it's fulldressreh at VCH), Thurs and Sun. Grr.

I REALLY REALLY REALLY need to do some intensive revision for quizzes soon.
And the projects keep pouring in.

sicksicksick. I want this semester to be overrrrrrr.

Finally feeling the excitement!
But calling up schools one by one aren't fun at all. Especially when they hang up on you =.=

Reports. readings. reports. readings.

Come one come all!

I feel like running away from it all.

2 articles. More than a dozen tutorials. TRUCKLOADS of revision.
AND, a song to be memorised for tomorrow's performance at TPY. (half done)
Mallet and snare assessment next week, or the week after. Would be able to practise the snare on my drum pad at home, but the other....how?

I know why despite being so overwhelmed, I continue to take part in activities as such.
I like that feeling of belonging, of performing with a huge group of people, to know that we are all working towards that same goal.

My clothes cupboard is in a mess already! And now I have to dig for all the dark colours to wear so it's worse. Haha!
Can't watch movies, can't buy clothes. Don't usually shop, but you know, sometimes you go window shop alone to destress and there's the impulse to buy something nice...

Okay, gotta go hunt for my choir tee for tomorrow!

Stuff like that makes me miss band.

John Williams Plays Suite From Harry Potter:-

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qv-Z-nSipJY&feature=related

Stumbled upon this when finding Double Trouble to hear how it sounds like because I need to play it for my Perc module assesment next week.

I've only gone for 1 lesson and assesment's next week - 1 on xylo, another on the snare. =.=

Did so many photo uploads on FB. Everyone tagged like crazy and I had 84 new notifications in a day!

VERY STRESSED!

I forgot about the meeting tomorrow.

I dropped my phone in my bowl of fish porridge and it's not working.

I knocked over a water container while trying to get some rice.

I forgot about the timeline my groupmate told me.

A reorganisation of priorities is in order.
Dreading choir. Missing Chingay.
Need some luck.

It's MY story, and it's nothing like yours.
