syco audition..

Went for SY auditions ytd... arrived slightly later n found out dat i was last to audit... got so many applicants for dizi.. total of 11.. ironically, sheng section only has 2 applicants-- one for gao yin n one for zhong yin! Waited from 7 to 9 for my turn to begin... Din really played my normal standard for it.. played quite a number of notes not in tune and the judges din comment or ask me anything.. is that gd or bad? haha... hoping for the gd news to come soon..

Downcast. Negative.

Shuckz... Most or all of my surrounding frens have finished 'O's n 'A's, enjoying their holidays while i, even though finishing the last impt hurdle of my army life, am still feeling super stressed n low, with so many impt events ahead of me for the coming weeks...

Up till now, i'm still having doubts about whether the concert will be successful... Shortage of ppl here and there, lack of prac, administrative stuffs not yet settled...

Next in mind is the competition.. a mere 10days without practicing, and i can actually hear how much my already-low-standard has dropped...

Next tue's the audition for syco.. i can only say i'm 60% prepared, with queries not yet answered for some parts of the set pieces... Pass or fail? It's all up to my last few practs this week le.

As for guard duty matters, i haf to say sry to all those whom i caused trouble for... seriously i didn't took mc for any-ol'-how and skipped my guard yesterday, which i wasn't informed of. The only med appt i can take for the week was wed n the treatment for my foot made me limped for the past 2days. Maybe due to last min changes i was told i only have one on next thurs. Only ytd i'm told my slot has changed to this sun n tue, on which the 2days i'm having concert rehearsal and audition separately. I oso haf no choice and cant do both cos the 2events are way too impt for me. (Sry Syivest, to trouble u to find replacements for me).

Haiz... just cant wait for all these to end quick then i can finally get to relax. Hope the concert will be a success. Hope i can at least pick up my standards at at least get into finals for the competition. Hope i wun screw up the audition. Hope i can get replacements for my duties.

Hope i wouldn't fall despite the narrow and rocky road in front of me. Hope that i can pick myself up even if i do fall.. Stay positive, jonny!

Super high fun day!

Went out with Kr, py, pl, fran n vann to orchard today... Starting all quite sian sian nothing much to talk about then after lunch at Pastamania, we watched The Coffin at Cathay... Something about lying in a coffin will get rid of ur bad karma, but the bad karma will land on someone you love. Kinda scary n bloody for a few parts of the show... but quite common effects of Thai movies so the scary parts were sort of expected..

After the movie, we actually wanted go Marina to bowl but in the end cancelled as Kr need to go alter his jeans... so the rest of us went over to Esplanade.. Halfway felt like having craving for ice-cream so we shared a big bowl of ice cream scoops at Gelare.. super shiok.. different flavours de...

Over at esplanade roof top... (ok i noe this is super childish), we played hide-n-seek! super fun la.. ultra long time neva play liao.. lucky not much ppl arnd there.. or else super malu.. lol! (Will post pics after i receive them)

Off to india tml! Hope to haf a successful n fun live firing experience.. =D

had a bad day at the cc... nobody informed me or boo about a function going on at the auditorium.. and we are supposed to hold last 5th combine today before the concert on 6th dec. Got freaking angry dat until today, concert so near alrdy the cc still allow other ppl to hold function at our only place to haf combines.... and boo had to make it worse by nagging more to me.... -_-! zZZZZzz x 100. ended up having to prac at the 'fish tank'... freaking squeezed everone inside.. cramped up.. super felt like flaring up at that moment but managed to control luckily... after lunch self-prac for awhile den went off arnd 4plus with kim, hz n julian to play pool at roxy..

nac competition is juz a month away! and it has to be arnd the same period as the concert... which means double-the-stress.. Cool... I 'love' stress man.. haha.. zzz.. so far i still feel dat my standard is not really up 'there' yet... and i've yet to prac a single prac with my piano accompaniment yet! okay juz planned our 1st prac next wed before i'm off to india.. hope there wun be any changes to the plan so we can at least prac half the song before i'm left with 2weeks to prac after coming back. Freak shit! i swear i'm so gonna SUPER CHIONG dizi every single available day when i'm back..

Sian1/2 tml morning still need go back camp for guard briefing shit. Which means waking up early.. actually doesnt matter much.. used to waking up early anyway... only sian thing is spend one hr going back for the 30min thing and spend one hr returning home. Shud i go swimming tml? shall see tml.. :D
