oks. there were this two MAJOR events that happened and impact-ed mee this few days. since da last tym i updated my blog.

First of all, ysd syf we got a GOLD. a gold that was filled with tears of satisfaction and disappointment. note there was no happiness. maybe for some larhs.

oks i'll go by da details.

i reached school at da same tym. simplee cuz i wanted to catch every min of sleep! hehs. thn went school. i was soo happee cuz qi gave a a flower (5cm X 5cm) paper one,printed one, hand-cut one. yupp kinda sweet of her and she was so proud of it. hrms. her first art-and-craft, as said by her. thn they passed mee da real flower. a LILY! so prettee larhs. too bad it wasn't yellow de. but it was damn sweet-smelling larhs. da whole co room was filled with lily aroma. hahs. thn all of them wished mee luuck.

after that proceeeded to co room. we started practicising then huang sheng came at 830 lidat. we started gg thru da songs kinda like a warm upp. yupps. to get us in da mood larhs. hrms. thn huang sheng kept assuring uss that we are in top form and yeas,we can do it! his assurance just makes everything so well.thn after he left it was free and easy tym until like 1. in btw we had to eat, change, makeup blahs larhs. we also took a number of photos. i really hate to take pics in my eye's state larhs. urghs! thn we went to eat and thn slacked around in co room. after we changed we were supposed to put on some makeup if not we'll look very pale on stage larhs. thn xuan yue ppl like very shy,all dunn want. hahs. in the end i was lyk da makeup artist ïnstructing" them. i dinn put cuz of myy eye larhs. yupp. but when they reached SCH all their makeup drop le. dur.

so we reached SCH at around 2? thn started stoning larhs. it was soo muuch of an eye-opener there larhs. saw soo many schools in so many blazers. but none had costumes as nice as us. =))
around 3 plus we went into da tuning rooom. that's when i started to have da fear,da excitement. i just wanted it over and done fast. in da room, xueli suddenly realised she forgot to bring her scores. and she broke down crying larhs. kinda heart-wrenching. luckee huang sheng got his ways and got her a set of scores. he's always da man! thn, we waited out da concert hall. we closed our eyes for 5min and started to think about da scene where we'll play da first note,da song. hrms. before us was yjc. thn we could hear abit of wad they played laarhs. hrms. they say it wasnt good larhs. and it sortaa boosted our morale. hehs.

oks. it was our turn. we've done it before during rehearsals. somehow it's just different on da actual day. we stepped in solemnly. thn huang sheng came in. with a grin. =)) he just looks so different from other conductors larhs. maybe its his long blonde hair. hahs. we started. and the first part of da song we kinda screw upp. is it expected? ponders. thn everything went on fine larhs. but da presto part i kinda screwupp. thn all those chang gong part i was trembling larhs. but its not obvious i think.hahs. it all ended sooon. when we went out da backstage pppl were like so good! ur were great! having heard those stuffs reallee gives alota assurance larhs.

th results came out at around 5.

we were da thirtheenth chinese orchestra.

we got GOLD.

no honours.

hc got da honours and 5 other jcs got gold. we weren't that great afterall. but there were some bronzes and silvers.

at first was very scared cuz if get silver damn lose face larhs. how to go for da concert? how to face da school? arghs! heng we got a gold. but i think while some weree happee with gold, others were ddisappointed cuz there wasnt an honours. i was one of da latter. foo kang too. sighs. honours was lyk our dream. though we managed to reach our expected gold, we missed da honours. anyways i think da co before and after us damn suay. they got bronze.

after that we went for dinner. all 22 of the xian yue ppl. 3 were not there. hrms. we went taste of thai, liang yin's uncle shop. whoas! da food. yumppss! sluurps! BAGUS! i luurve it laarhs. da fried sotong. i only ate one small piece cuz they din allow mee to eat. sighs. it was actually da first tym i went out to eat with a whole buunch of xian yue ppl? it was very funn laarhs. hope will have moore in future. hehs.

today. huang sheng came down specially to talk to us. he said alota things. he said we were very good. although we started very low, meaning we had a lota beginners lyk mee, we still got a gold, similar to other jcs. we are very wei da laarhs. thnn he said he was impressed that our presto part we nv gan pai zi. which made uss so proud laarhs. hehs. he talks great things and does great things. reallee like him alot larhs. he is one motivator. oh and he said da judges told him only tj and us had da essence of music. hahs. chim? think it's something good ba. hahs. huang sheng bought chocs for us too larhs! so damn sweet of him! ooohh. he even speccially bought durian flavour cuz he learned that xuan wan like durian. -melts- hahs. anyways. i just felt damn proud of ajco today. we worked towards a same dream and nothing. huang sheng started talking about da days. da days when he scolded us like mad,esp when we play lyk shit although he teach until very detail. da days when during da zu we can fall asleep when he attending to one section. da days when we were still learning da first diaos. hahs. turn to think back, we've really come a very loong way. too loong to even look back and measure da distance.i feel so proud of myself. finally, i can achieve something.

thn we started taking pictures. a hell load of. hahs. but those are memories taken to stay. this has been da greatest puzzle of myy jc life. one that makes staying in ajc so great.

AJCO ROCKS.

oks. moving on to the second event.

i got cornea ulcer.

its seems chim right? it's a white spot on my cornea which may spread and thn cause blindness. freaked? read on.

so my eye started to become red and PAIN on fri in school. i couldnt see things. it was simple too glaring. i missed co xiao zu cuz of it.

da next day, which is a sat, i woke upp only to find myy eye red and swollen. still. i was assured by myy very smart mother it was sore eye and so i hecked. thinking it will recover soon. thn cuz syf was near i decided to go to polyclinic to get something to drop to cure my sore eye. upon reaching there and getting a priority number cuz myy mum was working there, da doc just took a torch and shine on myy eye. following which she said "this is serious. there is a white spot on ur cornea. i better refer uu to the a&e department of alexandra hos" oks. i was freaked. a&e? that serious? anyways i went down there immediately and realised that that hos was so out of da way. so i transferred over to SGH. i was referred to da a&e depart. paid 80bucks for dunno wad. a nurse took myy blood pressure first. hahs. i got high blood pressure. =(( and thn a general practitioner said there is redness in myy eye and there is only a white spot. nth serious. oks. i was quite relieved.

thn i proceeded to a more specialised eye pratitioner. upon looking at my eye, he said"shucks! this is serious!" oks. that was it. hahs. thn he started telling mee everything about this cornea ulcer. it's da thing that actually leads to blindness for contact lens wearers. thn he used this thing to scrape something off my eye as a culture. its disgusting. thn i was referred again to another doc. this tym a gurl. we gave mee two bottles of eye drops. instructions were. drop da first bottle first. after 10min drop da secong bottle. i must do that every hour. even when i sleep. that is so disturbing rights?

being so afraid that i would go blind. i followed da instructions. i was practically rotting myy whole sat aways. always waiting for that one hour to drop. sighs. at night, my dad woke upp every hour to drop for mee. hahs. so nice rights? hehs. da next morning i went back to check again. i was soo affraid it wasnt getting better. thn i cannot make it fer myy syf. heng da doc said slightly better and that i only had to drop every 2 hours. great, isn't it?

thn next day, which is labour day hol,a monday, yilin pei mee goo check upp. this tym a different doc looked at myy eye. he is Dr. Chang Nai See. hahs. he din say anything but he said i could reduce to 4 times a day. so i assumes its better yeas? but da redness really persists. and my eye is still small. =(( my next appointment is wed.

which is today. i went to the national eye center this tym instead. and had to pay 21bucks to see that Chang Nai See. oks. he's like quite senior i think. he checked and said that 90+% has recovered and i will have to go bac one last tym next wed. yayys! hahs. anyways there was this new optometrist which is new i think. practicing there one. thn she was asked to inspect mee and report to him about myy condition.she asked alot of qns laarhs. thn she had to report to Chang Nai See. hahs. i could see she very scared laarhs.

even though recovering le but da lower part of myy eye still very red and my eyes are still small.so ugly! urghs! and i cannot wear contacts for like 1 - 3 months? my performance how? oks.i think that's enough for uu guys to read le.

tatas!
