GOLD WITH HONOURS!!!

that is what we are made of and smell of now! we emanate success the minute we walked onto stage. there was no fear in me. probably because we had SO many rehearsals and performances there. i walked onto stage right after i came out from the toilet. haha. it was the "Arsenal" feeling. :)

anyway, now that we've kinda officially end our band journey, i'm starting to miss band :( it's like after all these late night practices, reaching home earliest at 10pm. it was like the peak, and suddenly it drops to zero :X goodness. hope we get to perform at Presentation Night man!! never felt so bonded to my section before. partly cos last time there were only 2 people in my level from my section. so we were THAT bonded. but now, SEVEN of us. and went on Perth trip together somemore. those times were tiring but REALLY fun :D even though we spend most of the time packing and unpacking and moving heavy instruments. but think it was all worth it =]

anyway, wanna thank alot of people for the success of our SYF :) firstly, our beloved conductor, Mr Glosz. without him i don't think we can ever get so far. then thanks to Mr Benjamin Yeo and Mr Maroy Heng for their guidance and advice too. not forgetting our seniors who come back and help us so often, teaching us and improving our techniques and sound. :D THANK YOU! and of cos my dearestest section mates! and here's a short shout-out to you guys!

My MOM of cos! without her i'll go hungry every night i return from late night practices. cos she ALWAYS make sure i have food the minute i sit at the dining table after i've showered. :) and she prepares breakfast every morning to make sure i have energy to last me through the day. and occassionally there'll be chicken essence for important days like May 11 :D so THANK YOU MOM! and HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY! bought her a Guess watch to return her love for me. hehe, cos she lost her watch recently. could see that she's really happy to receive a gift from me. haha!

anyway, if i missed out anybody, i'm sorry! but just a BIG THANK YOU to all those people that have supported, helped me and believed in me throughout this whole period! it was definitely not an easy journey. i so wanted to give up a few times. but i PRESSED ON! and yesss! i need that kinda motivation to last me through the rest of this year! A levels' like only months away and i realise i've got LOTS to catch up on. so yessss! i needa be ENTHU and MOTIVATED man! oh yah! how can i forget? to thank God! i believe that i wouldn't have walked through this gruelling journey and period without his guardian and strength :) so thank you Lord, for answering my prayers :DD

alrighty, another thing that made me VERY happy is the success of my Strings juniors! really LOVE them and am sooo proud of them! St Nicks Strings has improved TREMENDOUSLY ever since i left. and under Na's leadership and many other capable section leaders, SN strings got a Gold with Honours in this year's SYF Central Judging too. even though i missed Jubialte, but after watching the video of their encore through Fernie's cam, i suddenly felt very touched at their performance. can see it for yourselves :) check SN strings out HERE. and watch their encore HERE.

anyway, feeling so hot now. but after watching Planet Earth last wednesday, i have 2nd thoughts about turning on the air-con now. think i shall just tahan the heat for the sake of my dear polar bears :))
