I meant to post last night, but fell asleep trying to do maths. And I would still have been sleeping if my father hadn't woken me up at 7 to ask my mum how to do the math! Argh!

Anyway, yesterday's practice wasn't as bad as I thought it might be - at least Ms Lim didn't scold us. And I think Altos is the best section! Cos we ROCK.

Plus, I found out that Wanyun and Chian Siang were from NY primary, in the same P5-6 class, and are now both in 06ip04 and in choir. Makes you wonder whether you'll ever meet back with your primary school classmates again in unexpected ways.

I had to give Ms Chua the letter from my mum to sign, stating that xuan is to be withdrawn from choir after Cantabile on April 13, and that if practice clashes with H3, H3 takes precedence. Ms Chua signed it happily, because those two requirements are a given. BUT, that's because they don't know what requirements are made of ME.

My laptop is to be transferred to my parents' room, so I can only go in there and use it for work - which also means no blogging, facebook, youtube and other stuff. It's so lame; I'll have had this blog for what, one month before I can't post anymore.

Also, no tv, going for class / choir outings, no reading books, no dvds, nothing but chionging for A Levels from April 13 onwards. Darn.

On a different note, I wore this MGS Sec 2 Adventure Camp t-shirt I haven't worn in an age. And then I showed it to my younger sister...

the first thing she said: "That's so old."
Xuan: "Really very old meh? How old am I?"
sister (taking much longer than she ought) "17."
Xuan: "So that's..."
sister: "3 years ago."
Xuan: "...feels like an eon ago."

Because I can't totally remember what life before NJC IP was like back in MGS. In a time where you don't have annoying boys in your class, where the uniform includes a pinafore with a pleated! skirt, where you have chapel and pray before each exam, where morning assembly is heralded not by two bells but by Christ the Lord is Risen Today, lasting 3 minutes, where everybody speaks English (even in chinese class), and good English at that.

If I could rewind time back to 3 years ago, would I still choose to go to NJC? Hmm...

The Xuan =)
