____________________________________________


doinkz. am back. long time no long entry.. so here goes one.

alright. lots of things that i wanted to blog them down long ago, but cant find the time to do so. doesnt mean that i am ultra free now, in fact, still have 4 more papers to go until 3 may. -boo- and i am indeed very tired. and i wonder since when didnt i say that i am not tired. must have been some ages ago. =X

anyway, work. as i said a few entries earlier, work ended unofficially, so i was called up quite a number of times and i went back for 2 meetings, 1 stock take, and 1 audit. what the toot. was really quite pissed that i have to go back for such stuffs. anyway, no news of new-in-charge which also meant that i cant transfer out of bukit panjang plaza. *argh*.. terrible terrible. i really hate that outlet. and well, i also lost faith in some people after i heard some news from small bird. anyway, small bird also told me some things that i didnt know. but anyway, must thank peter pan for helping out these days while i werent around.

next, school and exams. guess what? i was initially pissed off when i got to know my project grade for nm2219, because it was below average and sort of like just passed. *Argh*.. but after 1 day, the mark was moderated and now i am happier with the grade. besides that, got back the 40% gaming essay. am quite relieved because i finished that in a day as i have other projects to do. got a B-. *hEe*.. but i think i still need to buck up for the final exams if i wanted a B+ and above. haix.

then, exams. took nm2218 on saturday monday. actually want to extend my appreciation to chris who send me a mail which included all the definitions of some important concepts, and also doris, whom i bugged to ask about some of the concepts that i wasnt sure of. anyway, the paper was like -toot-. first question is like definition and application. anyway -goped- chris' definition from his email and wrote some 2 pages of crap which i am not sure if they make sense. and they better be, if not, my hopes of getting at least a B can fly away. and the other question, wrote about tomb raider and i didnt even play the game before. -dots- again, it was another 2 pages of crap. crap as it may be, but one paper down! *hEe*.. 4 more to go. -boo- =/

after the paper, went to print some notes and headed to west mall's mayim to wait for targa. and guess who i saw? i saw JJ lin! haha~.. *hEe* =P not that i am his super fan, but i do like his songs to some extent. anyway, this is the second time that i have seen him in person. okie, that got me excited for a while, wanted to take his picture but i am abit too slow and he walked past me in like 3 secs. =/ doinkz.

after that, targa and i went to the national stadium. when we reached there, happened that the band just reached there too. haha~.. anyway, got my alumni polo and it was damned big despite being tagged S. -pengZ- saw many peeps and they were like surprised and shocked and happy to see me. the first thing they said were "where the hell did you go?" haha. everyone asked me the same thing. was initially quite reluctant to face flute section but someone saw me, so i walked to them. all of them have grown up. really missed them alot. but, i am feeling quite guilty that i didnt fulfil my promise to them.

anyway, competition starts. results as follow [in order of appearance]:

1. tkband - gold with honours
2. bpband - gold
3. deyiband - gold with honours
4. yusof ishak band - bronze
5. jurong west band - silver
6. west spring band - silver
7. bowenband - gold with honours
8. springfield and pingyi combined band - gold

well, some personal comments on the whole competition [if you have strong personal opinions, please do not read on]. tk was disappointing though they got gold with honours. i expected more from them, their standards dropped compared to previous years. bp - they sort of screwed up in the first half, but was awesome in the second half. too bad they screwed up, if not i think they would get gold with honours. i really love their square formation! and sad to say, i did expected the results to turn out like that. but i am still proud of them! =P next, deyiband, the best of the the 8 bands yesterday. i saluted their flag team! very steady! then yiband was quite disappointing. jurong west band was quite good for a starter, as well as west spring. bowenband was only entertaining at the end but music was good, and the use of a female drum major does help. the combined band was fairly alright, but dressing was quite bad. a major improvement from 2 years ago which i think they dont even deserve the gold medal then.

and haix. bpband didnt enter the finals. still, i think they did a good job by having a gold medal at the very least. =) looking at the competition just reminds me of myself years ago. that familiar field. that fear of anticipation. that pre-competition-nervousness. only those have been through would understand. and scary to say, i still remember my moves in the formation. haha. and not to mention, faizal-ma was there too! =)

well, and got into a bit of disagreement with targa yesterday. haix. =/ but settled liao. =)

okie. time to sleep.
