Phew... it is still 1st Jan 2011. I thought it earlier that i wanted to at least post something on this first day of the year.

I was actually hoping that the clock will stop at 11.59.59 so that I will never ever go to the start of the mugging year again.
It reminds me of PSLE but this is even worse.

Like many others, I stayed up late for that 'crucial' moment 12am. I wonder why I was feeling so excited each time the new year arrives. Scared? Worried? Unpredictable?
Truthfully, I haven't been studying throughout the holidays. I have been hooked to TV shows. It was only the last month that I went for an expensive physics tuition to brush up my terrible C grade results...
At least, I felt more confident with this teacher and saw some light to my physics.

Here are some of the events for the last few days of the year

BAND 30 december

Just that 3 hrs it was so unpredictable. chloe was so happy that she was promoted to 1st, I had mixed feelings that I wasnt demoted.

Last thursday, she tested one by one. I screwed it half- way. I really thought I was going to 2nd trumpet as triple S pointed to my direction and said,' move to 2nd' , I was so happy then and smiled to myself thinking,'oh finally!!' ( coz i cant play high A note very well)
Then, I realized that she was pointing to my junior and she happily moved nearer to the 2nd trumpet. My mind crumbled. Almost everyone was expecting me to move and I felt guilty as I played worse than my junior.

Just why I cant get DEMOTED?? triple S PRACTICALLY KNOWS THAT I CANT PLAY WELL. giving me another chance. I feel guilty of depriving my junior the chance.
Maybe God doesnt want me to give up on 1st.

After that, 5 of my section members and I went to NEX and we ate the Japanese steamboat,'SHABUSHI' It was only $12 and we had a free flow of ingredients, drinks, sushi rolls and ice-creams. It was the best. We ate like 8 plates of beef plus prawns, chicken, clams...It was the first time having a section steamboat.
We went up to the skypark there and was so tempted to get wet at the water play area but we ended up going to the arcade.

Fun day for all.

31st december (countdown)

My family and I went to NEX again then planned to go to church for watchnight service. However, when we reached there, my father could not find any parking lot and we had no choice but to go for a joy tour around marina bay at night.
Although there was a massive jam there but we enjoyed the lights and scenic view of the marina sands plus the floating platform.
As we did not go to church for the 2009 reflections,my father wanted us to name 3 good things and 3 unhappy things for 2010 while in the car.
It was so crowded at night and with no parking space there too.
Unfortunately, it was only 11.pm then and there was no fireworks.
We then went back home and when the clock stuck 12, we saw the 8 mins fireworks on TV.
WHat a huge waste! I shouted, 'we were right there just now!'
At 12am, I send a huge load of sms to my friends, there was a massive sms satellite jam as everyone was practically sending at the same time.

1 Jan

TODAY Guess what? I had both physics and chinese tuition on this special public holiday. The teachers doesnt want to give us a break. A studious start for the year...first time in my life.

My mum forced me to wake up early in the morning for a run at Hougang stadium.
Right and I grudgingly woke up and somehow ran 2.4km (6 rounds around the track)
Then went for physics tuition 12.30pm-2.30pm, then chinese tuition 4.30 to 6.30pm
At night, there was some New year celebration party at my aunt's house.

It is very long-winded but thanks for reading!

Wishing you all the best for the new year. Happiness awaits everything.
