Oh looky! 30th already!

Hello fellow Earth-roaming creatures!
Please buy NP Strings' Virtuoso XIV concert tickets from me.
Tickets are going at $10 (for okay-ish seats) and $12 (for supposedly better seats).
You have to buy them from me cause i have a quota to reach :)
Our annual concert is going to be held on the 23rd of June at Singapore Conference Hall.
Please drop by to show some support! :D

I don't want to be performing to a bunch of strangers, you know!

busy, busy, busy week ahead. so many deadlines, so little time.
judging by the amount of work (CCA & MCM- related), I won't be getting enough sleep, so brace yourselves for some heavy dosage of cranky-val.

one of my cousins got married today. lucky him got a pretty wife, and lucky val got a yummy 11 course meal at Marriot. :)

busy week ahead... *chokes*

I met my crushie on saturrrrrday! WHEEEEEE!! :D

Too many shadows in this room

Let's just say I haven't been happy at all ever since the start of school. The workload is horrendously suffocating. (And it's only week two.)
Living the life of a nerd ain't easy at all. To the nerds of the world, I salute you.
To be honest, I'm really disappointed with myself. :(

Year Two Week One ( Part Two )

Let's just say the first week was "survive-able". lol
meanwhile, i shall start on my "Print/file-all-you-can Sunday". Time to buck up and start working this semester. (I didn't even have to type it down. Dad just asked if homework's done. My bad for telling them about the killer sem. Now my parents are on my back to get everything school-related done everytime i'm at home.)

I can't find my file dividers. :(
I want a bicycle. Please buy one for my birthday. Thank you. :)

"She wants the red car"

Met up with leelin after school. Poor girl's phone died on her and she took it all out on poor(er) val. I swear she went totally apeshit today. and i love it when she does that cos it's not every day you get to see her talk more than her usual self (who, is already very noisy) and since she's so suay today, i decided to let her become queen for the day.
as usual, we embarked on our not-so-long journey to make ourselves look like complete idiots and to do strike off activities on the "Worst things you can ever do with your bestie" list. Kia Motors roadshow were giving out free popcorn. Nice and friendly guy told us to wait for 4 minutes for a fresh batch of them. We returned 2 hours later and she had to have the RED box (in the shape of a car) instead of a silver one.
so i had to tell the guy "she wants the red car." wa piang. free popcorn also want to choose. lol.
basically, we just rotted at suntec. hung out at the arcade for a while, spent two dollars on those cute little machines that will reward sweets and occasionally, a very ugly toy and got ourselves a measly piece of marshmallow. bah.
so we kinda got to the conclusion that we need boyfriends for these cute little machines. its so fun cos you know you'll never get the toy, and what makes it more interesting is that you don't have to spend a single cent on it. and that's where the bf comes in. you pay, we play :)
so fun :D
Loh Lee Lin, you crazy girl. it's time for you to get away from those K boy bands (because Japanese ones are better) and get back to life. school's starting alrdy, okay! :D
i got myself a new pair of running shoes (which i hope, can survive bball) at 70 bucks. New Balance, i hope i won't hate them in time to come cos we'll be stuck with them for the rest of the semester.
My dad claims that the shoes will die on me in no time, simply because they were not made for basketball, and because he has never heard of the brand. haha, he's so cute.
i <3 my dad (and my mum, too!)
:D
New crushie's not showing any signs of interest. Ponders about going back to the die-die-no-hope-5-years-already! crush obsession.
bah, so sad. :(
haha.

Dum Dee Dum... It's a Wacky World...

Just a short post before I make a mad dash out of the house. Guess what we (Mel&Val) saw ytd at Raffles City Shopping centre?
we saw a huge Swatch clock outside the Swatch shop (obviously), and i figured there was something really wrong with it.
Val: Mel, i think you need to see this.
so we went back and took some pictures.


Here they are. Go figure. :D

Year Two Week One

I'm glad to say i'm still alive.
the only things that drove me crazy were the TWO management modules and my new name "Bruce Lego Lee, Doraemon" thanks to my wonderful haircut.
I swear, i've never seen Brian so happy before. He laughed like a kid today (400 times, for your information). At my hair. Bleargh.
Had a good chat with Cailing after school today, boy, i've missed her!
To Cailing, one of the most important people I've met in my entire quarter life. Thank you for being there during the craziest parts of my life. Thank you for being the bestest listener in the whole wide world. Thank you for being my great friend <3
It was until today that I've realised that she is always the first one i call out to when I'm suicidal. I love you so much (in the straight way). <3

My ribs are cracked. My chest feels weird. Huixiang drove them in with a bball just now. So you'll know what happened if I die tonight. It'll probably be due to my broken ribs digging into my lungs or something. lol.
But i don't want to die yet. I've officially found myself a new crushie. :D

Congratulations to MJRBand. Silver sial!
:D

There's no place like MJR Band.

Here's a clip of my dearly beloved junior dancing.

quality's bad, but DAAAMMMNNNN! melv, you made me the tuba section proud.
Lol.

i didn't know this is what you get when u type 'mjr' on youtube's search.
yes, i know. I WAS BORED. unemployment rocks.

mjrband, rock on!

Shooting Missing Hoops.

dragged myself up at an unearthly hour this morning. 8am, gosh.. the first time i've ever woke up so early in months.
My first basketball game in 2 years. WHOOO~
thanks to gary and the other strangers, i finally got to elbow two giants, miss 13456783425765 shots and make the ball fly over the effing pole/board/whatever-you-call-it in midst of a super hiong game with some 20-something-year-olds and some lower sec kids.
I've lost my touch. *bawls* (as if i had it in the first place)
HAHA.
don't get me wrong, i can still get my one and two pointers through with the nice *whoooosh* sound. :D (it's a self-preservation thing, so leave me be. i know i suck. )
yay. it feels as if i've found the love for this sport all over again. <3 <3 <3

am looking for bball khakis. preferably with their own ball because i was dumb enough to sell mine away for 12 bucks 2 years ago. (BLOODY HELL! NIKE, YOU KNOW?!)
LOL.

YAY for lousy basketballers! :D

GYABO!

Hello humans! Apologies for the lack of updates for the past 4 centuries. I am very much alive, i think.
I have devoted the past two weeks of my life to Nodame Cantabile
yes. i spent $29.90 and sixteen dog years watching and rewatching this jdrama.
TAMAKI HIROSHI IS SO HOT! @_@v
instead of becoming inspired by the story to practise harder like most of the other fans, i was too busy ogling at chiaki-senpai to give a shit about my violin.
shit. don't kill me, i'll go practise now!
*blows dust off violin*

<3!!! TAMAKI HIROSHI & UENO JURI
please catch this series @ crunchyroll.com
NODAME CANTABILE LIVE ACTION

Nodame mongoose will be waiting!!

more Tamaki-hotness! this film is so good it's gonna share the no. 1 position (along with love actually) on my list. YOSH! :)

I've been really couch potato-ish. this is not good.. heh! but it sure beats working.

We're nothing more than fools and whores with sad highs.

Time is like my greatest enemy. I hate time.
Sometimes I would just lie back and think about when I was younger.
I missed the times we spent as a family, the weekly sunday outings, the dinners, the birthday cakes. The happy times seemed so distant, so grey.
They're all replaced by work, school, and all the other side projects of our lives.
Dinnertime seems so meaningless now.
I hate time. It's passing right by under our feet. Discreetly.

My life is in clutters. Days of staying at home, going for strings, staying at home, going for strings have become routine. What's more, we're playing the same pieces over and over again, and I've been reminded constantly of how my playing sucks.
I hate routine.
I feel so lost, and yet I force myself to go through this routine, to spend more time with my family and to possibly make up for the time I will never get to spend with them when school reopens. And guess what, I'm still hoping I will not be made to quit strings simply because of my screwed up schedule. It sucks because the thought of it has gotten me pretty high-strung of late.

The great big plan for my life is officially screwed. I can't believe I've actually thought of making to the big U through this hellish route I've chosen to take.
I'll just have to make do with whatever life deals me.
Plan B: Survive MCM, get a decent paying job, survive midlife crisis, retire and spend the rest of my life on a little boat out on a little lake, waiting for the little fish to bite.
Wonderful.
I need a more happening life. Not the "I club alot, wear branded clothes, and then tell the whole world my straight cut jeans are skinnies." kind of happening, but the "I'm dating a gazillionaire who's young, good-looking, and who happens to be smittened with me for the rest of his life. I don't drink and I don't smoke but I still can have a great time laughing with friends who share the same interests as me." kind of happening.

Am pissed with the new timetable. Whoever chucked me into my future class must hate me alot. Yeah, watch me writhe in agony, or try. Because next sem is the time I get to smile at the face of the devil. (sidenote: ooooh. enigmatic, eh?)

I'm not making any sense already. Lack of sleep speaks for itself. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
