Some overdue photos...

 There was a really pretty sunrise on the last day of exams hahahaha. I'm really glad exams ended on a good note. (with chem)

My first alpha friendship bracelet - screwed up a little but it's fun xD

And then i made one for Kohaku-chan~ (which was much better than my first try)

At the airport, welcoming WEAVER!

Clarke Quay, where i missed WEAVER's live :(


And now, more recently...
Finally!! (i'm lazy to censor my own subject CAPs don't judge me)

YES I FINALLY HIT 4.0 GPA.
But i'm still not satisfied OTL
At least my GPA's up to 3.9 now. Must get it up to 4.0 before i graduate!
I want a distinction (4.0 CAP) for graduation gdi. It's only 0.1 more!
I seriously don't get how they calculate CAP scores...
I consistently get an A- for math since Year 1, but my CAP for math is a B+? (4.0-4.4 is B+, 4.5-4.9 is A-)
And god that chinese CAP looks horrible on my transcript.


I have now collected an entire box of Japanese materials, study books and novels.
That white box is full of novels. That Pooh box under the pink N2 book is full of novels. The Kinokuniya plastic bag is full of kids' novels. 
Plus a few JLPT books i took out to take this photo lolol.


Japanese book covers (from Daiso)! They're so cute hahaha. They only work for Japanese books though, because they're all in one size, unlike English/Chinese books...
I have another plastic-leather-idk-what-material one in white :D


Somehow got back into piano... Been playing some pop and vocaloid songs after the exams when i had nothing to do lol. I didn't like practicing piano, but i'm glad i completed 8 grades because now i can at least get a shot at playing Marasy's arranges which are soooooo goooooood. (But really hard.)
Managed to play the first page of Marasy's arrange of World End's Dancehall in hostel during post-exam period :DD
It's kind of... bangy... that it's fun to play LOL.
Gonna start keeping piano scores that i print in files!

Oh the last day of hostel was fun. Hahaha.
Dawn and Jing Wei first came over to my room to chat after lights out (11pm++), then we went over to Xinpin's room, and Chen Lin & Linh came over too.
Then the five of us played Monopoly Deal till like 2.30am or something...
I think the first time i played Monopoly Deal was on this really slack day during my first job @ West Coast Plaza xD  Played it with my colleagues (what this sounds weird) and their friends.
Dawn said that i was actually more talkative than she thought xD
I think it's just that Jing Wei was there (someone i'm quite close with), and Dawn's talkative...
Usually i will talk more if the other person is very talkative hahahaha. And if the topic's something i'm interested in, of course.

...I have absolutely no idea how my ARP will turn out. I wanted to do something related to design/psychology, but i don't think that's possible...
My group ended up telling the teacher that we wanted a bio/chem project...
And now we have to wait till after the holidays for them to find a project for us... ><
Sian. I really want to do my ARP well. I mean, you only get 1 chance to do it well, unless you want to retain a year...

#395:
So we've been having PEAs lately... I thought they weren't that bad this year...
But the film appreciation was kind of too long ><
They showed a lot of short films and then introduced stuff like techniques on how to analyse films... The only interesting part was the short films tbh, but even those were all "serious" topics like globalisation, change, etc

Career day was kind of boring... The talks weren't very informative and a lot of the booths were the same from last year... so i didn't end up taking many brochures lolol. I still have the bag of career day brochures from last year that i had planned to read through but didn't LOL. Oh NUS Computing gave these stress balls in the shape of computers xD  They were so cute! And PUB even had plushies to give O.o

Tomorrow's some relationship workshop thingy for 4.5 hours T_T
Hoping i will survive through it.
We also have cluster outing tomorrow~ Frozen yoghurt only though :D

Doing nothing but playing around since exams ended HAHAHAHAHA.
Been playing the Wii in the hostel tv room with my suitemates \o/
Super Smash Bros Brawl. I'm surprisingly good at it LOL. I can get 1st place using Kirby lololol.

Been trying to play some piano pieces recently...
Tried Remioromen's Konayuki & Marasy's arrange of World End's Dancehall!
Konayuki was pretty easy, but World End's Dancehall was difficult omg D:
The right hand has to stretch over an octave and i can't do that argh D:
But i'm kind of happy i actually did manage to play part of World End's Dancehall lolol. Marasy's arranges are awesome, but so difficult ;-;
Also printed out Marasy's arrange of Fire Flower, but i couldn't make any sense out of it so i put it aside for now xD

I should be putting more effort into mugging Japanese :x

WEAVER's Live at Zepp DiverCity DVD is already out for preorder on Asmart...
But it's limited to sales on Asmart (online) and it doesn't ship overseas so i'll have to use a forwarding service... D:
And it isn't cheap argh.
The DVD alone costs like 47 bucks, and add in the shipping fees and it becomes ~$65 T_T
Maybe i should ask for it as my birthday present from my older sis :X
I don't know what i want anyway... ><

#394: The best and worst days of my life
Ugh, i'm feeling so down now.

Well, yesterday was freaking awesome though.
Went to the airport super early to wait for WEAVER to arrive \o/
I managed to pass my roses and letter to Be-chan!! Hopefully the roses didn't get crushed in the bus ><
Man, WEAVER walked so fast out of the airport and into the bus lol...
Then running out to see them in the bus... 
All that tension and excitement...
;-;
Group photo the staff took! I'm in itttttt :DD 

Can you spot their NH111 flight? xD

Everyone waiting for WEAVER & SID to arrive~

The ONLY photo i managed to get of WEAVER in the airport OTL 
Have a blurry Sugi-kun.

Sugi-kun!

Omg Okkun... my heart please.

AND THEN TODAY.
Went to Clarke Quay like 2 hours earlier...
Spent like 15 minutes finding the actual place lolol. Then i kind of loitered around...
Then when it was like 1 hour to the actual performance the queue started getting really long and i got into the queue... 
I even got all the way to the reception before the performance started, but i couldn't enter...
So i ended up just going home without doing anything OTL
Should've just stayed at home and watched the main stage live... :(
Shouldn't have gone when i knew i couldn't have entered and got my heart broken... (because someone my age managed to get in, somehow or another god)

Finally! Exams are over!
When there are exams, 2 weeks seem like a very long time x_x
Mugging every single day for 2 weeks is hard.
Anyway, i'm really glad the exams ended off with chem and not bio lol. For the first time i felt like i understood most of the stuff tested... (though i already found a careless mistake that was 1 mark gone lol)
After exams, other people are like going out and having fun... But i only feel worn out e.e

Well now it's on to the headache that is completely moving out of my hostel room for the June holidays OTL
Bringing home 2 plastic boxes of stuff, 1 backpack of stuff, and 2 plastic bags of stuff today, and that is only like half of my stuff, i think :(
I wanna leave some stuff here in a cardboard box... but should i worry about my stuff being stolen =/
I don't really think it'll happen, but ARGH.
I think i brought way too many clothes to hostel lolol.
Must make it a point to bring less stuff to hostel after June holidays @_@

So many outings soon~~ Going to Kino and Bugis with Michelle and other people on 2 separate days, plus there's Music Matters on the 23rd after script checking! :D
SID/flumpool/WEAVER are gonna be good treats after script checking when i get back my horrible results OTL
I really really wanna meet WEAVER again! DD:
And hopefully i can tag along with Amber o.o

And now that exams are finally over, it's time to go back to studying Japanese :3
(with getting a good score for December's N2 test as a target...)

Wow, uh, just got a phone call telling me i won tickets for Platinum Data in Kinokuniya's contest Σ(・ω・ノ)ノ!
Whoa first time i've won anything lolol.
Time to find someone else to go with and it's one more outing to look forward to xD

Urgh molgen is horrible...

Exams this week as well as next week :(
People who drop bio have so much time to study and stuff... Stupid la, 2 modules of bio.

So gonna mug Japanese after exams.
Aiming for N2 in December... できるのかよ。
...And N1 by Year 6, if possible ( ゚Д゚)

Made a new friend recently, who also made my regrets a lot worse...
She's from RGS, studying MOELC Japanese, and she already passed N1 last year! (and she's the same age as me OTL)
If only i didn't miss the MOELC Japanese application after PSLE, i would have gone on an exchange programme last year already. (and not to mention, proper lessons)
And i might have been able to become friends with her earlier, then i could've gone to the WEAVER concert with her and maybe even meet WEAVER at the airport D:
This just makes me want to regret coming to NUSH even more... Other people in "normal" schools have stuff like etiquette dinner and prom a year before us nush people... I just feel like i'm missing out on a lot =/
Well in exchange for that, nush people have lots of math/sciencee opportunities, i guess?

This just pushed Japanese Studies up higher on my possible-uni-courses list ._.

Also, SID & flumpool (and WEAVER) coming to Singapore for Music Matters 2013!
Definitely going for the live concert (which is free!), but it's only SID + flumpool oh well.
WEAVER's performing a secret gig with the other 2 bands... which is invitation-only Dx
The 3rd time WEAVER's coming to Singapore but i don't get to meet them again :(
Definitely going to meet them at the airport if Kohaku-chan's lucky and figures out their flight (that's what she did last March OTL)
And maybe i'll meet Kohaku-chan for Music Matters! (*'ω'*)
