Take all my vicious words
And turn them into something good
Take all my preconceptions
And let the truth be understood
Take all my prized possessions
Leave only what i need
Take all my pieces of doubt
And let me be what's underneath
Courage is when you're afraid
But you keep on moving anyway
Courage is when you're in pain
But you keep on living anyway
We all have excuses but
Living in fear something in us dies
Like a bird with broken wings
It's not how high he flies but the song he sings
Courage is when you're afraid
But you keep on moving anyway
Courage is when you're in pain
But you keep on living anyway
You keep on living anyway
It's not how many times you've been knocked down
It's how many times you get back up
Courage is when you've lost your way
But you find your strength anyway
Courage is when you're afraid
Courage is when it all seems great
Courage is when you make a change
And you keep on moving anyway
You keep on moving anyway
You keep on giving anyway
You keep on loving anyway
omg i love this song. |

OMGOMG i need to stop thinking about studies when i'm lying on my bed before i sleep. thanks to bloody national unity which kept me awake for like more than half an hour yesterday night. well anyway, you dream about things that you think about right? so my worry over NU was translated into a total nightmare. like, literally. omg the nightmare was so real i almost cried in my dream.
anyway i dreamt that it was CT2 and i had a total of 2h to complete my history, chem and econs (didn't dream of math hahaha). i don't know why but all the questions were just combined into one paper. 2 HOURS!!! I HAD TO COMPLETE 2 ECONS CASE STUDIES, 2 HISTORY ESSAYS AND A WHOLE LOT OF CHEM QUESTIONS. omg the dream was super vivid i can still remember every single detail. after 1 hour had gone by i only finished a bit of my history essay and a bit of my case study and a bit of chem. and i kept flipping and changing topics/subjects cos i couldn't do the questions OMG. seriously. total nightmare i almost cried. the relief i felt when i woke up was beyond description man. like PHEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. omgomgomomgomg stop stressing at nights.
:( back to NU!!! |

The Quiet World
In an effort to get people to look
into each other's eyes more,
and also to appease the mutes,
the government has decided
to allot each person exactly one hundred
and sixty-seven words, per day.
When the phone rings, I put it to my ear
without saying hello. In the restaurant
I point at chicken noodle soup.
I am adjusting well to the new way.
Late at night, I call my long distance lover,
proudly say I only used fifty-nine today.
I saved the rest for you.
When she doesn't respond,
I know she's used up all her words,
so I slowly whisper I love you
thirty-two and a third times.
After that, we just sit on the line
and listen to each other breathe.

the poem is so so so so so so super sweet <3 <3 <3 AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH.
[edit] heehee i refuse to start a new entry! whee :D anyway i don't get why people must put music on their blogs?!?!! it's SUPER annoying because everyone has different preferences so if you like a particular song so much, why don't you just play it to yourself on your iTunes or something?! you don't need to make the whole world listen to the song that you like right :S everytime i go to these kinda blogs i have to stop my music just to listen to their song GRR! oh but i'm fine with those who bother to put it in a wma format so you can just stop the music hahahaha. everyone should stop putting background music on their blogs!!! okay i sound like an ass :( nah no i think it's justified. DO YOU GUYS WANT ME TO PUT QUEEN OF THE NIGHT ARIA AS MY BLOG MUSIC JUST COS I LIKE THE SONG? no right. yay :) [/edited] |

sometimes i think i am very pessimistic :( i saw some things i shouldn't have seen. sigh. and there's no one online now to talk to! most of the class people went off for Y camp :( like usually i will have 60+++ people online, NOW I HAVE 24. class people plus chorale people come back please! you're missed :)
okay i shall do nerissa's quiz :D
sigh. i don't feel any better. yesterday morning i completely wasted one hour of my precious (LOL) time reading this online print called I Believe You by Low Kay Hwa. erm the english is quite O_O and the plot is SUPER predictable (yay i predicted everything correctly) but in the end i still cried quite badly! seriously, i am a tap. dripdripdripdripdripdrip. those interested go google it! the first 11 clapters will come out :) as for chapters 12-20, google it! most likely you will end up at this guy's blog cos he posted the chapters up. his background music is damn sad somemore lah. conducive for crying. and there's this code in the book which a lot of people can't decode but i decoded it in 1 sec?! i think i am a super boliao person. my brain works best at boliao stuff whee.
LONDON IS DAMN FUNNY (ZACK AND CODY) she reads XOXOXOXOXO (hugs and kisses) as OX OX OX hahahaha OMG.

If I kissed you
Would fireworks fly
Woud angels sing with lollipops
Would dinosaurs cry
Would babies all gurgle in laughter and surprise
If I kissed you
If I kissed you
What would Michaelangelo say
Would he still have sculpted David
Would we be immortalized in clay
Would the poets write of love like ours
Would John Donne have his say
If I kissed you
You could be one in a million
You could be the one for me
But l guess I'll never know if I never try
I guess I'll just have to grab you in my arms and kiss you
If I kissed you
Would you lose track of time
Would you feel a surge of happiness
Running up your spine
Would you run naked in the street
with a tattoo of my name on your behind
If I kissed you
Oh, if I kissed you
Yeah, if I kissed you
i love the song <3 ALMOST A WEEK has gone by without my various (SING)s online hahaha. i was so touched to receive julian's sms yesterday!

no matter what i do, how hard i try, i will never be (your) #1, right?
on tuesday half my social circle will disappear to a faraway land i call poland :( i will miss all of you!
i can't bring myself to start studying (totally no sense of urgency). all i did today was read national unity on indonesia and graphing techniques notes. on top of that i watched mary poppins, 3 episodes of WOWP, d!o!w!n!l!o!a!ded a song, listened to the radio, read blogs, took two naps blahblahblah. seriously. amount of work done = ZERO (reading notes imo are NOT considered work done because erm, tell me in what way is it work done?) amount of time i slacked away = approx. 9 hours. great. at this rate i will be a stevedore next time. (LOLOL)
:( life is so unfair. i can't get over myself.

i have officially lost track of time. i found out today that next week is the last week of school, before the intensive mugging begins again. GAH. totally hate it, but that's life. i am still quite shocked that it's week 9 now. i seriously thought we were still in week 7 >< omg.
anyway, that's not why i blogged. i decided it's finally time for me to stop procrastinating and blog about concert!
ohwell. all i can say is, CONCERT REALLY ROCKED. actually it's like my 1st year doing so many songs at one go. in the good old RG days we always do (at most) 6 songs? then there's busking/sectional item and medley after that. so technically it's not very vocally challenging (in a sense lah). then last year we only did like 6 combined songs. and we performed in LT 1 zz. so it didn't seem like a concert at all? and plus the fact that i really don't like the songs we did last year. i really hated dziedot (whatever its spelling is) and i still hate it! don't ask me why. ahwell k i shall stop being biased. then this year i somehow love all the songs that we do! seriously, other than warm up, i really really REALLY love the repetoire. college anthem included! LOL. and singing at esplanade just makes everything x100000000 better. AAAAAAHHH okay enough of all these. which songs made it to recording? someone tell me please, if you know :D
well all i can say is, i am really glad i ended my 5 year (SUET I SAID 5 YEARS :D) choral experience with a bang :) raffles chorale was a mixture of bittersweet, but ultimately deep down i know i still love chorale to bits and pieces and i really really love everyone in chorale. k actually don't need to go deep down in my heart. it's a well-known fact that i love chorale! YAY!!!! altos especially! yay i have been an alto ALL MY LIFE please. today is like my first monday free after so long. it felt weird seeing the basses and altos and tenors having sectionals while i went off to support netball. it's like, they are all so busy with chorale and i am in a league of my own :( ahwell. i told altos i will join them for sectionals next monday, but i forgot next monday is a public holiday :( GAH. so sian lah.
okay back to main topic. i am really really glad for chorale lah. sometimes i think it is quite sad when some people don't like their CCAs. like seriously, other than boring school and academics, CCA is an outlet for you to enjoy/relax/do something you really love. although i keep complaining about pracs, i actually love them a lot. (although i hate the process of getting out of bed at 6am on sats especially!!! but it's okay. once i reach sch i get excited about chorale again) yeah. aaaahhhhhh. omg. i love my batch!!! i love my altos!!! (sorry to others whom i have left out; i love you all too, just that i didn't get to get close to you all :( )
BATCH 08: all my loves!!!! i am really really glad to have you all by my side. everytime i am sick of life etc i walk into chorale and there's all of you to cheer me up. i think ours is the only CCA where the girls are more vulgar than the guys? really lah, the guys all have DAMN GOOD personality. julian! i really really think you have a super good temper. everytime we will just make fun of you and you are still fine with it? (although you know we are joking duh!) k the rest of the guys also. just that i really must give special mention to julian cos i think sometimes we ill treat him too much! hahahahaha. and the girls! aaaaahhhhhh I LOVE ALL OF YOU! need i say more :) :) :)
ALTOS 08: omg i love you all too! although i admit i have been neglecting my alto 2 J1s (sorry!!!). we know we rock! yay you all must keep the power of HWOAH k. i will come and visit you all again! and my darling alto 1s, yay we have gone a long way! from like erm 3 people in the beginning of the year (cat me vivien), we managed to expand until we have 6! (+ clara, victoria, isaaaaa) although we always get the in between half-sopline-half-altoline parts, yay we did it in the end during concert!
aiyah sian. there's so many poeple in chorale that i miss. then like last time i will always get to see them on wed and sat. or whenever i go to the booth. but now i hardly see so many people around! esp the J1s, since J2s i can still find them at the table :) :(
TOUR GROUP! good luck for your trip x 1000000000! rest assured i will come and send you off! unless you all assemble at like 1 plus am... then cannot lah :( but you will won't right! it's evening right! :D :D :D
aiyah i think my biggest regret this year is not being able to do o magnum for concert. and that we never take a FULL CHORALE PIC :( ohwell. and i don't regret not going for the trip, but all i can say is life would have been much better if i can just totally ignore academics and go for trip :( k lah and my nodules problem also (luckily it kinda healed before concert; so okay no complaints) OHWELL. nowadays whenever i read chorale people's blogs on how much they love lux etc i get this feeling of... emptiness inside. like okay when minsi sent me the song i also think it's damn nice but i just don't love it the same way as they do cos i am simply... not part of it :( ohwell. it's okay i am really fine with it. just a random thought! :)
THOSE WHO WANT PICS! please ask from me online :)
OH YES. and a bigggggg thank you to all those who went to support on concert night! although it's a weekday and there's school the next day. i was really super touched lah.
okay, and that's a chapter closed in my life. sigh. i doubt i will ever join choir again in university because i am not keen to sing in an adult choir. and the feeling will be different anyway. yup. this entry turned out to be a lot happier than i thought it would be, but it's a good thing! at least it makes me smile :) :) when i read my blog again erm 10 years down the road i still want to feel the same warm and fuzzy kinda feeling that i am feeling now!
sian. and now it's back to reality. i am totally lagging behind my work. SIAN. TV's my weakness nowadays. i am too lazy to proof read my entry so i am just going to post it hahaha.
[edit] CHORALE BATCH OF 08 WE BETTER STILL HAVE REGULAR MEETINGS AFTER GRADUATION! (thank you kialiang for reminding me heehee) seriously i want to read this blog entry 10 years later and think something like: omg yeah i had a smashing concert in 2008 and now it's 2018 and i am meeting my batch for lunch later! (or sth along those lines) everyone must make the effort k. which reminds me. i am really, really glad for all my memories <3 [/edited] |
