True to my word..I had been busy for the past few days. Finally received my loan instrument, a Yamaha YBL-421. It's silver-plated and it's in pristine condition. Had fun practising with it so far. Bought a 2nd hand Protec case, although a tad bulky it is protective and because it's 2nd hand, it's affordable! Prom nite on Monday at the Concorde Hotel. It was a nice hotel to hold the prom nite. It was quite like the hotel for prom nite last year, the Grand Copthorne Waterfront. Sumptuous dinner and some nice games hosted by the SLs. I would like to have the photos taken with me that night people! (Especially those with no Facebook accounts). Went back to Dunearn for the past 2 days and I must say, the band is putting in effort to prep for SYF next year. Today, was a very long day. Traveled all the way to the east to attend a band exchange at Temasek Primary, then to the Northeast to Compassvale Primary School. Had been teaching from 9 to 5. That's like 8 hours of teaching! Really taking it's toll on me, I'm very tired. Going back to Dunearn tomorrow and maybe back to Compassvale if I have the energy..another long day. Good thing Friday is a public holiday..which reminds me to wish all Muslims Selamat Hari Raya Haji! I should start getting some exercise like jogging coz I really lack physical training these days. Time to knock off, goodbye!

Woo! Kudos to West Winds! Great concert! Haha..Ponyo for encore. Coming week will be Dunearnite rehearsals and Dunearnite itself..so ya..I'll be keeping myself busy..till next time, cya =)

Oh yeah..it's OVER! Bravissimo! Went back for band last friday straight after Chemistry Paper 1. So happy to see them again :D The pieces they're playing for Dunearnite are very cool! Mamma Mia!, That Thing You Do and Tequila (with gimmicks)! So Fun! I might join them for Dunearnite on thursday. I also took a look at some of the formations Mr Yeo came up with, and, they look really complex, hopefully the band will do well for SYF next year. Long rehearsals next week...haiz. Oh and a concert tomorrow! West Winds..yeah..Beautiful Sunday indeed! =)

Woo..just MCQ left! After that, it's OVER!!! Once again for those interested, I still have my pure chemistry, pure biology and elective geography textbook to give away. Priority for those going to take these subjects next year, only if nobody take then I'll give those who want it as a 2nd textbook. Oh ya, anyone who is interested to attend the SSO concert on 1st December, Pastoral Pleasures: featuring Beethoven's 6th Symphony; Brett Dean's Pastoral Symphony and Nielsen's Flute concerto, please inform me before this Sunday and I can help buy tickets for you. All the best for the remaining papers everyone!

Hey peepos! Updating in the middle of 'O' Level exams :X 'O' Levels have been alright so far..no outrageously difficult papers nor super easy papers. As of now, left with elective geog, physics, biology and chemistry (paper 1 only). After that..hoho..time to make some MUSIC!! Just to let everyone know..I'm clearing my bookshelf of textbooks. I took triple pure science, A maths and elective geog..and of course the compulsory subjects. Do let me know if you wanna get complimentary textbooks...hopefully they don't get outdated..hehe

I'm 16!!! haha..thanks to all those who wished me. Today also marks exactly 21 days to the 'O' Level written papers..so all the best people!

Another long gap between my posts..sorry for that. We left off just before my trip to Malaysia so lets see what has happened..prelims were long gone..performance in Istana on the 20th..checked the prelim papers; I'm rather happy for my results..L1R2B2 of 10 and L1R5 of 17..it's a big improvement I should say from my mid-year marks. Had chemistry practical yesterday..it was fun..but could have tragically gone wrong for Ben. So thats that..no more practicals for the rest of the year. My aim now is finish the 'O' Levels well and kick start my journey into music! We're 27 days to the 'O' Level written papers people! All the best..work hard and you won't regret..though time is short..it is never too late till it's over.

Woah..it's been a long time since I last posted. But it's becoz of the prelims..and..my laziness to post also. Nothing much has happened..just a chemistry extra lesson for a pre-prelim paper..thanks to Mdm Leow for the lesson and lunch and snacks. Well it's 45 days to the 'O' Level starting tomorrow..and 3 weeks later..it's over!!! Anyways..going to Malaysia tomorrow for a short getaway..coming back on saturday. Might post a few pictures..gonna taste more nice food there I guess. One more week of prelims everyone..all the best!! :)

Another week passes by...a tiring one as well. It has been mugging non-stop and I guess everyone should expect this..it's end of the year..teachers are pushing to finish syllabuses and start intensive revision. Prelims are coming in 11 days time for 'O' Level students..already on for 'N' Level students...and soon after that..in no time..the 'O' Levels itself. Time seems to fly by very quickly during this period of the year..after that, some feel time slows down..some say it goes even faster..some say there's no difference..some don't care at all. But in any case, time goes at exactly the same pace no matter which period of the year it is..it's just how we're spending it that determines our perception of time's speed. We all have the same 24hr + hours a day. Let us all use this wisely. I was just watching the National Day Rally which I believe most of you didn't watch coz you consider it an utter waste of time..but it shows us how our nation has progressed..what to expect in the future..what changes can be made. One can take it as a good break from mugging and find out more about current affairs. Its importance will come to us somehow. Anyways, just wanting to share a picture I took today with everyone. Its not a great picture by any standards considering I took it with my phone and I'm not a trained photographer..but somehow I like these "subject-less photos". It makes me feel relaxed and looking at what nature can bring us. Hope you enjoy the pic and all the best for the upcoming week.
It's difficult to succeed..but it's even more difficult to make that conscious effort to start the road to success...

National Day gone by...Oral and Prelims coming up. It's an uphill task ahead for everyone..lets all pull through this together with strength! Lets not look at it as suffering...but the beginning of our eventual careers. Something to work for...something that everyone of us will carry for the rest of our lives. Come on everyone!! You can DO IT!!!
