SYF has ended...

First of all, wanna heave a huge sigh of relief.... *HAIZ*, cos all my projects are completed! The LSI one was completed on Thursday morning amid some frenzy, only to realise that Dr Kay couldn't make it to the lecture last min, so Dr Stroud was there to collect; passed our stuff to him just as he was walking up the AS7 flight of stairs... PHEW!!! Prior to that, I went for the speech therapy observation thingy at SGH; was quite sleepy and fell asleep watching the video, so i had to end up standing up to watch the video and the "live" consultation sessions happening in another room... the one that i saw was the Swallowing clinic... oh and the other person who was with me was none other than Gaylin from WS! Should have known better when i saw her name in the email... The rest of the Thursday noon was spent in Quest preparing for the final lap... was quite okok, in fact, pretty impressive =) Then after the practice which ended early, i met Dear at the BB mrt station platform, then got tickets from Weilin (THANKS!) and proceeded on to have makan at Sakae (Ala-carte)... after that we went back to my place to get my Living with Maths notes for Dear.... then sent her back home loh... wasnt driving that careful haha, but it was quite safe....

Friday: didnt go for last Morphosyntax tutorial cos have to go Quest for their early practice... run through was ok; the principal (coincidently also MR Lau hehe) was there encourgaing them... Halfway I heard from Dear, Weilin and Ries via SMS that TW got bronze... its not a bad start; hope they can work even harder to achieve bettter results!!! AFter all, this year, it is quite proven that nothing is imposisble.... jia you!!!.. then it was dressing up and final run through and tuning... and off we go! Mdm Woo drove me there... time files, and before everyone knows it, it was time to tune... then after the tuning room, we were waiting to go in; suddenly realise that the snare drum they provide is the one for Drumset! Hurriedly went to borrow snare drum from St Nics (Ms Sia - if too bochup, one can spell as Sai... keke)... i wasnt allowed to be onstage, so I listened to it backstage, and it sounded eerie, with the triangle going haywire!!! Probably i was listening to the sound being fed into the mics and speakers, so it was raw... feedback was that they were much better than one month ago at the same venue.... after St Nics, we went in, and i sat beside Dear... listened anxiously for results, and Quest got Bronze... well it was sort of a redemption for them after the result the last time round, but i guess some were quite confident of a Silver... anyway, I'm glad that they are going to take away an experience that is going to last a lifetime for them; i guess they felt bad that so many other bands around them were cheering their Golds, and that made them worse... after everything, we went to LPS for dinner with Jenn and Desmond; had Fatman, which was ultra nice today, and stingray, beancurd and kangkong... after that we went our separate ways le....

Signing off....... Bye SYF, hello Semester Exams........
