@10:00 AM
Alright...I've been MIA-ing again but this sem is really hectic! Sometimes, I do really wonder if I've made a right choice to take 6 modules. Oh well. The sem is coming to an end very soon, and I'm still caught in the midst of finishing my 35 and 3 paged essays, two upcoming presentations and a mysterious stata assignment by Prof Choy (He's yet to reveal a single detail about the assignment). Goodness gracious. Will I ever have the time to really sit down and conc on my revision?
Anyway, I'm relieved that my group has completed a 10 paged macro essay that is due tomorrow. I've to say that doing compilation of parts and editing for a paper is no joke. It's taken soo much of my brain juice and time that I feel so worn-out after that. The effect is still taking its toil now. =(
On a lighter note, I had jus passed an eventful weekends;
Attended NUSWS Da Capo at UCC theatre last saturday. I've to admit that Mr Leonard Tan is a brilliant conductor! He's very expressive in his conducting. Despite the exaggerated strokes of rhythm he conducted on stage, he had successfully brought out the beautiful contours of the music. Of course, the band had also watched and followed Mr Tan's expressions closely. I marvelled at how the band could do the dynamics very nicely..and the strength of the band too. It's almost like groups of 10 for each section. However, I thought the intonation was compromised, which is a pity. Other than that, I did hear some wrong notes here and there..but overall, the interpretation of pieces are good. As for the winning ensemble that performed, I shant comment much. =x
After the concert, went to eat dinner..or should I say supper with des, Hansel, his junior, huiping and dear. The haze was really bad. We felt as if we were at Genting Highlands. haa. Anyway, it was rather fun to have dinner with them. We chatted alot and GoSsip loads too. Haha. Dear sent me home on a cab with Hansel and his junior. But before I went home, it was very nice of dear to celebrate Mid-autumn with me! haha. He gave me a surprise with two lanterns that he took pains to buy (cos' he told me that it was not easily avail after mid-autumn.hee). And we carried lanterns like how we did in our childhood days at a park near my house. =D So sweet of dear! Thank you! =D
Sunday was a sinful day though..cos I really ate loads and loads of unhealthy food.Yes, Rainbow, Yali and Hiddy treated the sistaz to Sakura Buffet at Downtown for their birthday celebrations. I went for many rounds of food; fried rice and some meat, sushi, chicken chop, laksa, cream of mushrooms, ice creams, black forest cake, tiramisu, 2 cups of drinks and fruits. At the end of the meal, I didnt realise I'm very full till I stood up from my seat and walk out of the resutaurant. Really enjoyed the food...thanks to the 3 October babies. But I was filled to the brink.
Well..I'm catching Goong now. Ciao ~~~
