               PERTH TRIP
perth trip with sajc band was amazingly awesome and memorable. i had so much fun, i wish i can turn back time to the 29th of May. all of us were excitingly chattering in the band room while waiting to be chartered to changi airport.. ><
it was a 10 day trip. we ate, performed, practiced, stargazed and shopped. *sigh* i miss the stars in albany. it was so beautiful! anyways. am too lazy to type out 10 days' worth of itinerary but i think these pictures will be enough. and they are not in order. here goes..

plane after it landed in perth at like 6 or 7 in the morning? look at our sleepy faces!


random shot of flute section's shoes

more picture taking in  the waiting lounge (with postcards from j2s ^^)

i go all the way to perth... only to eat indon food. -_- but sad to say, the food kinda sucked. and it doesnt taste like indon food at all. hahaha. really.

at london's court. the first time we went, the shops were closed. hahaha.

over-sized band jackets. hahahaha.

still same place. and same objective, to capture the sky. haha.

i think this is at the torndirrup national park. me thinks.

eating at a mexico restaurant. great experience. and food. hahahaha. we ordered food and dont know what it will look/taste/smell like. quite interesting.

i think this is at the valley of the giants, particularly the tree top walk.

dinner at a chinese restaurant. 





           COMMON TEST
nothing much to say, except that i did badly. i believe the whole cohort did quite bad. :s i was so stressed during the june holidays, i cant enjoy the month long break at all! i dont get why CTs are after hols. how can people "have a break"?! furthermore, take 10 days off for perth trip and 5 days to bali and 3 days for holiday lessons. that left me with what, less than 2 weeks to really sit down and study? omg. i was so so stressed, its even more so as compared to my Os. like 10x more. i did celebrate the end of CTs though. thank god its over. but now promos are coming up. uh-oh. :s


FESTIVAL WINDS
fw are over, with a concert on friday 1st august. after much practicing (including sunday section practice), we finally did it. *sigh* i will miss the people i play with. kyaw min, jerome (jenny), siddiq.. the lame-ness, the jokes, the section outing to the toilet in st pats.. *sigh* oh wells. i think we are gg to meet again, but not so soon la. maybe during end of year band camp?


OPEN HOUSE
today was sajc open house. based on what i heard everyone say, its not very successful. i think its because the lack of publicity to sec schools and the bad timing. ria, for one, is starting her prelims on monday! people will be too busy mugging to go down for open house. anyways, even though the band were so tired from fw concert last night, i think everyone did try to put in their best for today's rehearsals and performances. good job everyone. ^^


SPEECH DAY
speech day (in dunman) was quite fun. got to see old friends again, all dressed up in jc formal wear. cool. hahaha. well, we each received a small trophy, certificate and popular voucher. and the newly renovated dunman campus is cool. dont look like the old one at all! hahaha.



well. i dont think i will have the chance to blog again until like.. hrmm. dunno. hahaha. will be very very very busy. assignments, tutorials, tests, tuitions, band pracs, mugging.... argggh. ><
