Y'know my angel finally wrote to me today. & the letter was
really really really long. Hahaha, thank you Kimberly! (: [Kimlin,
hahaha Then anyway, she wrote it on
YELLOW paper, which is my favourite colour. -swoons.
Aye wahlao, Cassandra, Grace, Amanda, WenMan, SuXian, you know I won't get extremely depressed lor! I still have Joey, who is like my lesbian partner,
hahaha.
Anyway, I came earlier to help with the storeroom [which I swear is nastily gross
hahaha] Then after that me & Grace went to Macs where we met Congyi & Joey.
Anyway, there were alot alot alot of hilarious rumours today,
hahaha! Not going into details. :D
I'm bored & Kimberly just came online! Time to harass her,
hahahha.

Er yeah, I think I should blog about the concert. It was alright luh, although I think all of us could have done alot better. But ah well.
Hahaha, day started off in HwaChong where I got lost in the carpark. Then I met the
double quartet people [Haha, fine double quartet, not octet!] who were dripping wet. Like oh my gosh, they walked in the rain! Hahaha anyway, we put our stuff down at LT3, and rushed off to the drama centre with our instruments.
The backstage was quite cramped with the chairs and stands and everything. Then we practiced Capriol & Turina. Wahlao eh, I hate the Lento parts where the 2nd violins enter with the melody at some awkward point of time. Had to glare at MrChan out of the corner of my eyes, I must have looked very fierce! /:
Then anyway, they practiced the setting up of the chairs and stands etc. There was a little nasty affair here, so not going into details. Dinner was okay, but we had to eat in a rush. & we changed in a little dark corner. I changed with Grace, WenMan, Natalie, & Cassandra,
hahaha. Then we took quite a few level photos which were
wahahaha. (: I shall post them here when I get them from Cassandra.
Oh well, then it was the concert and we watched everyone else from the top. Angela was really great, and she looked really good in that dress with a matching bra,
hahhaha! I saw WenJia and I was like :O. The double quartet people were really nervous during intermission and I had quite some time trying to calm them down. Nevertheless, they did really well! Like,
really really really! I'm so proud of them I gave them
kitkats,
hahaha. :D
Then anyway, yeah, encore by MrChans were really good! Then we went back to LT3 to change in that little dark corner again. Guess what, I forgot to unbutton the buttons at the wrist area, so when I took out my blouse, my hands were stuck,
hahaha. Stupid Mary-Anne just cracked up and laughed at a little corner. I must have been quite a sight, eek.
Then I walked to the carpark with Mary-Anne and her family, because I was afraid I'll get lost again,
hahaha. Anyway, found my parents in the carpark, so yeah.
Oh, thank you
YueXiu, Grace Chua, Yiying, Eleanor, Delphine, Nicolette, Mivio & Debra for the flowers! I really really really appreciate them! Thanks loads! <3

Anyway, then today I had theory lesson like damn early in the morning, freak it. Went for swimming with my sis and we went out after that. My sister was so excited when she took the MRT,
hahaha. We went to Raffles City because my sister wanted to watch that
12 Dancing Princesses thing. I was so nice, I accompanied her. :D
Then we took the MRT back home and here I am. Piano lesson
again tomorrow, damn! /:

Today was rather tiring. We had the bonding time at our school, and it was alright. Haha, we were like running around and not making sense of anything! But anyway, we made it to the MEP room last and we got a mini pack of Ruffles,
hahahaha.
Then we made our way to HCI for lunch, which I shared with Claudice! Y'know, Claudice is one big bully! Haha, she practically gave me 3/4 of the rice luh. & she's like "I have alot already, enough enough! Don't want already, nooooo Jessica!" -.- Haha, then anyway, we went for sectionals. Thank goodness our sectional tutor is an alumni who didn't call us out one by one to play. (: Haha, he was quite nice luh. Just kept saying "Very good, very good! Not bad already, much better than I expected!" & we just sat there and "Er, okay, we get your point."
Orchestra practice was so
uncomfortable! All the violists and violinists were bloody squashed luh, the next chair is only like
1cm away from me. & the amount of bow I used is like um,
5cm at the very most. Then Capriol was sooooo annoying! I tried my bloody best to play the lower part, but how can I adapt in such a short period of time! Haha, then after practice, me & Rachel Pang ran out to ask Mr Chan and he said we can just stick to whatever we used to play.
Pheww!
Haha, then it was ICECREAM time! Haha, other people
SCREAM FOR ICE-CREAM, we
SCREAM AT THE ICE CREAM! All of us just grabbed and tugged at the ice-cream and I broke a spoon while trying to scoop a decent amount of ice-cream,
hahaha. Haha, then WenMan was like "Can you'll be more gentle? More demure, like me!"
The pot calling the kettle black, WenMan! (: Our ice-cream was real nice, so thank you MrChans! (:
Haha, then we went back to the drama centre for some briefing thing. Well, it was quite funny,
hahaha. Then I got my tickets [which were the programme booklets] Haha, I don't think it should be called snapshots, more like CANDID SHOTS! I don't know what I was doing in the photo luh.
Anyway, the journey to the bus-stop was
wahahaha with
Mary-Anne, WenMan, Cassandra & Amanda! :D Haha, Cassandra and Amanda looked damn funny when they were trying to walk down the hill. Then we kept laughing for no reason. Hahaha, fine, it was only me. Mary-Anne suspected that someone drugged our ice-cream because all of us were feeling extremely high,
hahaha. :D Haha, and Mary-Anne explained to us why everyone has the impression that StNicks girls are all
crazy and totally out of their minds. One perfect example is our dear friend, WenMan! We were just walking and talking, when all of a sudden, WenMan raises her violin case up really high and swings it, laughing madly at the same time,
hahaha. :D
Anyway, at the bus-stop, I realised that I didn't have my EZ-link with me because my mum borrowed it to register me for something. Mary-Anne gave me some coins, thank you! Then I got on the bus and didn't know what to do,
hahaha. Amanda kept pointing at some stupid red box and said "There, there!" Then I poised the coins over the red box and looked at Amanda again, who said "Yes, in there. Drop it in, drop it in!" She called me
swaku. /: Hur, Amanda, you broke my heart. ):
Hahaha, you know we saw CongYi and Vanessa at random bus-stops on the way! Haha, then Sherrina called me to ask how to get back home. Haha, sorry Sherrina, ask wrong person! I don't even know what buses go to my house or where to drop the coins! /:
Anyway, yeah Cassandra had to tell me when to get off. Hur, now I feel really pathetic! I shall make it a point to know my neighbourhood, surroundings and the buses better! (:

Today was alright, although I wished we didn't have to report to school
that early!
Anyway, we made our way to HCI which was rather um, huge. Bonding time was alright. Double whacko was
wahhaha with all the screams and all. Haha, we girls really have wierd reactions! It's like when the name of the person we are supposed to protect is called, both of us will
SCRRREAM! Haha, then the person behind will start blubbering and pointing, hahaha.
Then we split into groups. My group was alright, but they were all secones & only
ONE sectwo. Haha, we stoned quite some time away cause we already finished our activities and didn't know what to do. I didn't have appetite for lunch today,
can you believe it! Oh well, practice was okay, although I needed some time to get used to the new bowings and new speed. Yeah, then I realised that for Capriol,
all StNicks girls have to play the lower part? Like, what the hell, I have always been playing the higher part! Oh my gosh, shit, Rachel Pang,
HOW!
Then we got our new string tee, and the camp tee. The camp tee is so plain! & our string tee is not bad, but the sizes are a little wierd don't you think!
Ah well, I'm tired and I shall go watch TV with my mum now. :D
Swinged it at;
8:50 PM
Freak, Mrs Khong just called my mum. I'm very very very
far away from triple! Now my mum is fuming mad.
& you know, MGS hasn't called me to confirm the details for the test... I bet they changed their mind and they don't want me anymore! Grreat, this just made my mum madder.
Frreak,
how!
Anyway, why is everyone in such a reflective mood on their blog! Haha, everyones talking about how they'll miss
or how much they appreciate "insertnamehere" has done for them!
Sigh, I'm in deep shit, so I have no mood to blog anymore.

12:16 PM
Haha, today was boring so I shan't go into details.
Oh well, you know, now I can do THIS! Haha, thank you WeiTing! (:
YueXiu is going to buy the book "The Devil Wears Prada" & Jesse Mccartney's new CD and she said she don't mind lending them to me! Oh my gosh, does she rock or what! Haha, I don't even have to pay but I get to enjoy them too! (:
I love YueXiu lorryloads!
Haha, I like like like doing that underline thing! :D

11:22 PM
Happy Birthday Cassandra Tan! :D
Haha, I didn't get to wish you properly today, so here you go!
Tuesday's CCA was okay, and my house was just boring the shit out of me on wednesday. Then I went to the library on thursday to replenish my stock of books. Haha, we went out at night to look at furniture, which was rather boring.
Went to school at 7.50 today and met YueXiu, JiaMin, MichelleTang & Mivio at Father Barre. I'm sorry to keep you guys waiting! (: Yeah, then had quite a good time chatting with YueXiu. Haha, I didn't realise I missed her that much! Haha, I guess I'm going to have to meet her quite soon so that I can pass her the tickets. Yupp. :D
Haha, then recess was so rushed! It's like we didn't have enough time. So anyway, we had to leave the hall at 12.15 and headed for the MPR2. Right, then we set up and got everything ready and only managed to rehearse once before everyone started streaming in. Argh, I didn't think we played that well... But the guest-of-honour wanted to pay us to play for her at some random functions/events? Haha, whoaa. (:
The food wasn't too appetizing. Apparently cause while we were sitting there and providing free music, everyone else has tucked into the food and by the time it was our turn to eat, it looked rather gross? Everything was so messed up & there weren't even drinks left for us! Grrah. I didn't eat anything in the end. Oh well, then yeah we packed up and brought our instruments down to the MEP room for more practice.
Before practice, we went to watch the double quartet. Haha, I'm so proud of them! They improved alot alot alot, and now they actually sound quite good. Haha, & Mary-Anne was playing like damn damn damn loud.
Haha, you guys were good so don't worry too much about the upcoming concert, yeah? You'll can do it! & Haha, I shall have to remember to get you'll flowers/chocolates or something. :D
Then anyway, we had our normal practice all the way till 5.30 then this guy from NAFA came? Apparently he was going to conduct us for Bach and it's part of his project? Haha, so cool! If I was really that musically-inclined, I would want to go NAFA too! (: Anyway, I think it was quite embarassing for him. Haha, cause when he tried to conduct us, we just don't respond and sit there staring stupidly at him. Haha, abit he doesn't look like Low-Ann! Haha, not really anyway. Maybe just a slight resemblance. :D
Anyway, I was kind of sad for a little while during strings. My parents went to MGS to ask about their subject combination and about whether they can take me in and offer me triple science. They said I could take the entry test for English & Math. Ah well, I guess I'll just give it a shot then... If I actually get in, I can still turn them down anyway. Haha, and at least I'll know that I'm actually qualified for something? Yeah.
Haha, my favourite line of the day:
Jog backwards to gain weight! :D

Yesterday was alright. We had a party at my cousin's house and she was like really shy. [because it is her birthday] Yupp, the food was deeeeeeelicious! :D Haha, & we went to the nearby playground and I pushed my cousins on the swing till my biceps hurt. [which is rare, I tell you] But it was really fun.
The cake was like heaven. Haha, I polished off two pieces. :D & she got like three new barbie dolls or something? Haha, she was in cloud nine, I tell you.
Anyway, then we went for my grandparents' concert at night. It was rather boring, but I managed to put up with it. Haha, my grandma can't really sing. But she has put in very good effort over the years! & my grandpa is a faaaaaaantastic tenor. My grandparents' stayed over for the night. Like, yay! :D
Haha, I love my grandparents to bits! <3
I saw my subject allocation. I'm in C4, which is the same as Natalie Lim. (: But I'm not even sure if I'm staying in this school. Because my mum has rather weird ideas about me going to SCGS. Grrrreat, I shall just wait & see then. /:
Strings was quite fun I guess. Bonding time was wahahaha! But the quartet people couldn't join us. MrChan was coaching them or something. Poor things! Anyway, haha, our group was "Cassandra & the 7 dwarfs" Haha, that was because our facilitator [which was Cassandra] had to join the quartet people. Then there were like seven of us left. Haha, I guess we were a little inspired by the 3 blind mice. :D
I kept getting smacked by Mary-Anne during break. Like, for nothing in the end! Haha, I wanted to tell WenMan & WengJun something about Mary-Anne. Then Mary-Anne kept smacking me while I was trying to tell them. In the end, they told me they knew about it long ago. Grrreat, I suffered all those beatings for nothing! Haha, what the hell.
My MSN is like finally working again! It screwed up for like the past 2 days or so. & now it's working again. Like, out of the blue. Okay, I ran out of books and I need to visit the library again. Talking to Addison by Jenny Colgan was damn funny. Haha, I kept laughing at it. My sister thought I was out of my mind. But it really was damn funny! :D
Strings again tomorrow. Grrah.

Okay, I realised I haven't blogged for 2 days and I am rather surprised with myself. :D
By the way, there has been something wrong with my MSN. I cannot even login! Like, bloody hell. :/
Thursday:
I went for my sister's concert since my mum couldn't make it. It was rather, ehm... interesting. Haha, the IPW presentation was jaw-droppingly short! Like er, 6 slides long. Okay, so maybe they are Primary Twos. (:
Yupp, then it was drama performances by both Primary Ones & Twos. Er okay, and I thought my acting was bad. But then again, they are teensy weensy kids. :D Haha, and chinese dance! Which comprised of: "Stick your left hand out, stick your right hand out." -.-
Okay anyway, I was rather disgusted with the whole pile of blusher that was on my poor sister's cheeks. Gross. & the lipstick was blood red. Yuck.
Friday:
I went to school like damn early in the morning just to accompany Mary-Anne and the rest of the double quartet people. Haha, I'm so nice right! Anyway, then the highlight of the day was lunch. :D Haha, we ate Orange Bowl and Mary-Anne kept going on about gross stuff. Haha, but it really was very fascinating! (:
Then orchestra practice was rather boring. But I still cannot play that annoying scale at the start of Peter Hope! ): Shit, Mary-Anne, HELP!
Today:
Grrah, I had to wake up like damn early today just for piano lesson. Okay, so maybe 10 am isn't that early... But still, I always sleep till like 12.30 on saturdays and wake up just in time for lunch. :D Piano lesson was boring. & I hate melodic dictation! I just cannot do it. Frreak.
Yupp, and I'm most probably going to watch my sister swim later. & if I feel like it, I might swim too. (:
Then we're going to buy my cousin's present I think. Haha, this might be one of the rare occasions whereby I'll actually touch Barbie Dolls. My cousin likes them like alot alot. Oh well, she is four years old after all. & she's freaking cute! Haha, she's the one who is in my display picture for MSN. (:
I had a HUGE Triple-Chocolate Cornetto ice-cream yesterday night. Haha, and loads of chocolates. How sinful was all that! :D
Swinged it at;
12:55 PM
Oh well, I didn't get my beauty sleep yesterday, I was called to dinner. [which I thoroughly enjoyed. It's food after all] Then we made our way to Ikea after picking my dad up. I hate wooden things! I walked into dozens of sofa/bed/table legs! Like, ouch.
Haha anyway, I slept till like 12.30 today! :D & I was awoken by the wonderful aroma of [Yes, you've guessed it] FOOD!
So then we went to AngMoKio library today instead. Didn't do much there, browsed through a couple of magazines. The librarian was asking me why I still have projects during the holidays when I took a National Geographic magazine off the rack. Hurr, I was just being a good girl and reading useful stuff! (:
Yupp, then went to JunctionEight again with my mum, sis & maid. Well, my maid wanted to buy something apparently. & I managed to get my yellow rubberbands! Like, finally. Then we bought Ice-Cream! Like how sinful is that! :D
I wonder how was double quartet practice yesterday. IF there was any...
I'm extremely bored now since I've refused to read my Josephine Cox book since something really sad happened. Haha, what's my problem! I get so agitated over a book and its contents. Haha, it must be the results of sitting next to Yoceeda for like four practices! Her face goes TOMATO RED when the storyline doesn't go as she would have liked it to. It's damn hilarious. :D
Haha, I wonder when I'll start reading my book again! Most probably five minutes later. (:
I love YuJie loads for the song! Haha, now I'm listening to it.

I went shopping with my mum and sister today. Yupp, I had lunch at home then went to pick my sis up from school.
Then we went to Bishan Library! Haha, I borrowed two books. Don't think they'll last long though. But oh well, I shall just read my sister's books then! Haha, Sabrina the Teenage witch, Ashley & Mary-Kate, WITCH! I feel like an eight-year-old. :D
Then we made our way to JunctionEight. That place is getting quite boring, but all the same. Haha, I chose my mum's new handbag. Yupp, then we went to look for my cousin's birthday present. I swear those Barbie dolls are soooo useless. Seriously. Didn't buy the present in the end, we couldn't make up our mind. Grrah.
When we were in the car, I remembered I wanted to get yellow rubberbands. Damn it. Oh well, too bad.
I just had a Mars Bar. Haha, how sinful is that! Now I'm getting so obsessed over fats and calories thanks to Rachel Pang, WenMan & Mary-Anne. Haha, I don't care how much fats there are in the orange bowl soup, I'm drinking it anyway! :D
I suddenly feel tired. & I know why. Haha, I haven't had my minimum of 13 hours of sleep today! Okay, I'm going to sleep and wake up just in time for my next meal, dinner. Ahh. (:

I lost my piano score yesterday & realised I left it in my piano school. Whoa, I sure got a good scolding from my piano teacher! So anyway, he did MEP stuff with me. We started revising the ROMANTIC PERIOD ; seriously, is there a more kiasu teacher on earth?!
Then my laptop screwed up big time. My battery just wouldn't charge because of some silly contact problem. So I couldn't use my laptop. I got so frustrated I fell asleep on the sofa with a heap of newspapers on me.
My dad fixed it later at night. He took out all the wires and attached them to my charger. So now my laptop is not even a laptop anymore, its not mobile. :/ & it looks kinda gross now. You can actually see the naked wires running out of my laptop, yuck.
Strings at 1.30 today. I wonder why its so early. But oh well, I still can't play the pieces and I just wanna die when we play them. ): I cannot cannot play the ascending scale at the beginning of Peter Hope's Momentum! Hurrrrrr, and Shostakovich is just too fast. Like oh my god, we must have Peter Hope & Shostakovich ready by 17th november?! Die lah. ):
Whoa, Wenman got into triple science! Haha, congratulations Wenman! :D
& to think my mum was just appealing for it a week ago. -.-
& I have decided not to drop MEP since I don't need my second instrument after all! (:
& Jo Hsi says the MEP class is always very bonded! :D

I went to watch Notre Dame de Paris yesterday & it was fantastic! Like whoa man. (:
Anyway, my mum was in hysterics before that. She made it sound like i'm attending my brother's wedding so I have to wear an evening gown. Then I sms-ed Grace to check with her what she wore. Thank goodness i stood firm, or I would have look like a bloody fool if I wore an evening gown there, not like I have one though. Haha, so I just wore a blouse and a skirt, like I always do.
Singapore Indoor Stadium was big big big! Haha, and thank goodness we weren't the only teens there. Anyway, the show was so damn good. Like, we can totally see the contrast and difference between Forbidden City & Notre Dame de Paris.
Haha anyway, the men were good-looking! The girls were alright I guess, but Quasimodo (the hunchback) wasn't ugly enough. Uh-oh, I'm starting to sound like Tiffany! Haha, this is the outcome of an entire year with her. :D
The theme song was damn damn damn nice! I don't think they included it in the disc we bought together with the ticket. Grrrrrreat.
Haha anyway, my aunt managed to get a 50% discount. So instead of $120 per person, we paid $120 for two. :D
Haha, I have this sudden urge to watch Phantom of the Opera! & all the other musicals in the world. :D Yeah right, wishful thinking Jessica.
Piano lesson at 11. & I really don't feel like going. I didn't even practice! Shit, the upcoming scolding is not a very pleasing prospect. :

I have made this resolution to type with proper CAPS and to my best ability, perfect grammer. Haha, so Mary-Anne can stop picking on my English.
We had Strings again today and Mr Goh conducted us. We played the piece at a speed slower than usual and I could actually keep up. Grrrah, it's time I start practicing my violin again I guess. :D
Ghost Whisperer tonight is supposedly really scary. So I'm going off to watch it after i post this (:
I just explained to Yuexiu how my name looks better in caps: JESSICA. It looks quite okay like that: Jessica. But this: jessica, is horrible.
Haha, I love being random! So there, Yuexiu! (:

anyway, then mrs goh called my dad today. like, finally. there are no places in triple science, or so she says. i'm not too surprised. but my mum started annoying me again.
i don't know why she wants triple science so badly that she is even prepared to change my school for it! i fucking hell don't care, i'm staying in this school no matter what. this is my life, damn it. i have the last say in what i want, so you'd bloody hell leave me alone.

yesterday, we had maryanne's pianist accompanist as our tutor. her name is cindy, i think. she was so so so strict! & her accent is kinda wierd too. grrrah, we did BACH & SHOSTAKOVICE.
BACH was alright i guess. quite nice actually :D but SHOSTAKOVICE! yuck yuck yuck. it was like really fast. then the notes were like really annoying.
then strings today... mr chan was late. he thought practice started at 3.30. so anyway, we did BACH & SHOSTAKOVICE, again. BACH was alright, and was actually fun! :D but SHOSTAKOVICE was rubbish rubbish rubbish. we played it really really fast today. i think i only managed to play like the first and third note of every bar during those crappy ALMOST CHROMATICAL parts. & the part where the violas, cellos and double basses had those triplets thingy, it was really noisy! like a coffeshop or something hahha (:
"the coffeshop was as noisy as shostakovice's composition!" :D
hahah it was sarah tan's birthday today. happy birthday sarah! although you won't read this, but ah well.
