..................

hi.
eh,supposed to be doing projs nw.
cos its the hour.the "auspicious" hr.haha.

no la,cos its the hr my da ge's sleeping.
n i can finally work in peace.
for hrs,he'd been bugging me for the com.every half an hr or so he'd ask me,"Are you done?"
gt rather annoyed until i stopped answering him.jux shook my head.haha.

realli hoping to get a laptop soon.
cos i realized everyone wants to use the com or shud i say need to,at some times.esp my dad n er ge for work purpose.
n of cos,i need it for my projs.esp for this sem.

bt den again,aft tis sem i might nt need it tt much anymore since its external attachment.
bt definitely when im in the uni, i'd need a laptop.
so ya,tinking abt getting one.dunnoe how,bt somehow la.haha.

anw,these 2 daes[thurs n fri] felt like 1 long week.
been spending time in skol working on projs.
going to skol at 10am everydae.going home at 4.30pm n 3pm.
come home, continue doing projs.
neverending.

tink having to crack my brains over so many projs within 2 daes was realli nerve-wrecking.
prolly explains my lethargy when i come home.
dun feel like talking,if i do im like straining my voice to hit the highest pitch to let my stress out.haha.luckily the windows at home r still intact.haha.

bt fortunately, todae[fri] i gt to nap.i was realli pooped out tt i fell aslp on the sofa when i jux started reading my marketing textbk.haha.
n i slept like a log for a gd 3+ hrs.
woke up, stoned a while n watched a bit of tv n it was back to work when i finally managed to use the com.

next week's gonna be worst, i reckon.
looked at the schedule we drew out todae.
btw, its the first time i ever drew a proper schedule in my whole life so far.haha.
anw, mon-wed im gonna be in skol n going out to do 2 surveys.
thurs-sun is the retreat.

God Bless Me.haha.

tink i'll go berserk if this goes on for a month.which's abt the period when our projs r due.
jux hope nw's the suffering period n when skol reopens, slowly everyting falls into place nicely wifout having to rush anyting.

anw,i've been pretty well-entertained by tt girl amidst the rush.
the girl who calls me,"u joyce brown cow idiot".haha.
shes going crazy at work i tink.haha.
nth to do until she went berserk.quite the opposite of my situation eh.haha.

cant wait to see her n Nick they all tml for the bbq party at Nick's place.haha.
i've been looking forward to it.haha.
n hopefully im able to complete wat im supposed to.

so im off to do work nw.
bye.

.................

Dear blog,

i survived tonite's prac.
hated it totally.
too messy n noisy for me.
n the music room was freaking messy.wif a dead cockroach beside the keyboard peddle somemore.haha.

can u tell im trying to laugh?haha.
jux trying to crack myself up so i wun be so upset.

im jux nt happy wif the prac.
although i mus say Matthew did do a pretty gd job at finding out the root of the problem each time, bt at the same time we failed to find the rite solution each time too.

gt quite sian until i jux wished we cud scrap the song.
which obviously wudnt be possible.
cos we r persistent n ppl who tinks "When theres a will,theres way".haha.

anw,i did enjoy everyting tt happened before prac.
the dinner wif Bianca n Nick n getting hes present wif him ard.haha.
n we've [Nick n I] been putting up the pretense tt he doesnt noe wat we[the band] gt for him.haha.

anw,so the prac.
sometimes i wish we can jux stop composing songs.
or whoever who hav been composing songs can take a break.
dunnoe why we wanna make our own life so tough sometimes.
we cud hav well jux take songs frm cd to learn.

ok den again,we wanna explore n be exposed to doing tings our own wif our veri own style.
tts why, we're torturing ourselves tis way.i guess.haha.

tired.
todae's the unofficial end of my hols.
gonna be mugging projs all over again frm tml onwards.
fortunately Yuting wud be turning up too.

or else,it wud be a lonely threesome doing projs tml.

so,my dear blog.
u see how tough my life is gonna be frm now on?
sometimes i tink im going mad.
like u noe,addressing u here.

oh n guess wat?
i found my stupid capo.
left it in my ovation case since the thurs outing at Pasir Ris Park.
forgot i brought it along.haha.
as usual.Bianca wud sing tis to me,"ben ben ben ben!!"haha.

alrite.
going.

idiot signing off.hahahah.

Ray Charles & Barbra Streisand - Crying Time

Oh it's crying time again
You're gonna leave me
I can see that faraway look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me, darling
That it won't be long
Before it's crying time
Oh they say that absence makes
The heart grow fonder
(fonder)
And that tears are on their way
To make love grow
(grow)
Well, my love for you could never,
Never, never, never grow no stronger
(stronger)
If I live to be a hundred,
And I say a hundred years old
Oh you say that you've found someone
You love better
That's the way it's happened
Every time before
(before)
And as sure as the sun comes out tomorrow
(tomorrow)
Crying time will start
When you walk out
When you walk out my door
Oh it's crying time again
You're gonna leave me
(I can feel it now)
I can see that faraway look in your eyes
(I can feel it now)
(I can see it baby in your eyes)
I can tell by way you hold me, darling
That it won't be long before it's crying time
No it won't be long before it's crying time!

its an old song.from 1992.
happened to come across it on youtube.
which has a realli nice version of the 2 of them.
n nw im totally in love wif it.haha.

n i saw another one by Barbra Streisand, My Melancholy Baby n Everybody Loves my Baby.

.................

bored.
stressed.

though its supposed to be my onli 2 weeks break for nw till prolly i graduate in April next yr, cant help bt feel stressed when i tink abt the tons of projs waiting for me to do.
6 major projs to be exact.

bt fortunately n unfortunately its all grp projs.
fortunately,cos im able to share the workload wif my grp members.
unfortunately,cos we hav to meet up in order to get started.which means, gotta arrange timings to fit everyone's schedules.which is the biggest obstacle this time round.i tink.

during this 2 weeks break we gotta do wifout Waiaung.cos shes abroad.
n im hoping to complete as much as we can during this 2 weeks break.
n 3 of the modules grades depend heavily on these projs.

yeah.

anw,i've gt new "resolutions".
to be punctual or earlier den those i meet n to make more sacrifices for HIM.
i met up wif Nick todae.
n i was telling him to be punctual tml when we meet,n he was telling me,"look who's talking".haha.

looks like i've been late when i meet him.haha.
n i realized i've been later even when i meet Bianca nowadaes.
i dunnoe y.tt neva used to be my practice.
to be late.
bt anw,todae when i met him i was on time la.in fact, earlier den our arranged time.haha.

ya,so i decided to be punctual in future.
be it in skol or outside,i'll be punctual.
cos i've adopted a new "practice" lately.to meet the girls 30 minutes later den the time they arrange.cos i tot since they're always late, i'll jux come later la.so at least i dun hav to wait for them.although they r pretty agreeable wif tt, i tink im gonna drop it.
it'll be a good habit n practice.=).

n my second resolution, sacrifice more for HIM.
well, i jux feel tt nowadaes i've been putting other tings before HIM.
tml we're supposed to meet to go hav dinner at Jacob's, tinking theres no prac tml.
whn Nick said there was n i confirmed tt wif Auntie Sharen, wat came to my mind was,"Can we not go for prac?"

den Nick said we shall forgo dinner at Jacob's n go for prayer n prac.
n make it a sacrifice for HIM.

tt was when i realized.
tt i havent been sacrificing as much as i used to.
the same ting for the last vigil i was supposed to go.

n in a way,i was glad tt Nick said we forgo Jacob's.
reminded me abt the vigil incident.
the consequences.too much to bear.i'd rather sacrifice a little nw i guess.haha.

n wat more we can go Jacob's any other time.
prac's our priority afterall.

yeah,so i was pretty guilt-ridden for a while.
bt decided to do smth more practical.
so tt shud explain the reasons for my second resolution.haha.

ok.my feet r getting numb in tis freezing room.
getting outta here nw.
bye.
