6:17 PM

Everyone's gone to Sabah. I'm feeling so utterly alone.

Actually, only 2 people I know well, erm, I mean, 1, but still.

Friday was interesting because I didn't sleep the whole night, worrying over the SC audition. So I baked cookies and gave out to people after flag-raising. I didn't even know why I was worried because I never wanted SC anyway, just went to run because (a) a lot of people want me to and (b) just for fun.

In the end, though I was super nervous, I just went up to try to make the band better. It sounds super diplomatic, but it's true. I must say the band is really not up to it, you can really hear it from the podium. Practice, guys*!

*By guys I especially mean Clarinets & Flutes at 2nd and 4th bar of [I], which I totally couldn't do because where are the running notes?!

Haha I must complain! Other people did 8 bars, and I did 10! And I did the last bit, so a lot of things to do. And usually people don't practice the last part, so all the flowery trills and semi-quavers are GONE. Zilch. Nada. Nothing.

Oh, and I really underestimated the time. I was a quarter way through my fixing (which was terrible) when Mr. Leng told me, "You have about 30 seconds more."

Like whoa.

I really think I did badly, but I tried my best. Congrats to Huiyao for getting it, you really deserve it, and Zhengyu and Walter, you guys did way better than me, I feel super small and bitchy now haha. I think we should compile our notes (if any) for Huiyao so he has more things to do xP

Ooh, good news, Qifannn and I has been upgraded from UM to BM! That's like BUM!

We're a pair of Bums. That's uber cool. Haha congrats. But together we shall work together to erm... what did someone say... oh yeah.. BRING THE BAND TO GREATER HEIGHTS.

Now the competition is concentrated on the DM. [sarcasm]Great. The competition is so close that I won't hold my breath. [/sarcasm]

Don't get me wrong okay. I wish to have a good working relationship with whoever gets the DM.

Actually I'm pretty numb about the BM part so I'll post something more throughout later.

Was super tired when I went home, and got awakened by my mum today at 7 to go extend my passport.

My eyes were bloodshot.

When we reached Lavender the ICA (Immigration and Checkpoints Authority) queue was so incredibly long. I think people stayed overnight to be first in the queue. It's incredible. The Hello Kitty queue wasn't even that long. I feel like an ant.

Anyway, we queued for like 30 minutes, and the actual procedure was 2 stamps on my passport. That took 10 seconds.

I was ravenous after that, because I didn't eat breakfast, so we went to Macs and had McGriddles. Then my mum was ambushed by a survey person and got asked random questions like "Is the bun too soft or too hard?" "How young are you?" that makes it sound like the McGriddles is also a makeshift dildo or something.

Went home at around 10 plus in the morning, and slept till...5.

Going to play Cabal, then bake cookies for Mother's Day. Ciao, belle.
