Went for 2nd drama practice after school. Practically no one was in the mood to
practice. Brian was so moody and completely not paying attention to the drama.
Finally, I gave up and shouted at Brian, asking him what I could do to finally satisfy
him. He said " You persuade teacher to let us do a dance instead of 1 Malaysia, then
I'll do the rest." "Okay. I'll call her now," I challenged him. I went out with Zheng
Chee and I lent him my phone to call teacher. No answer, so we wanted to text her,
but Zheng Chee said it was sort of chicken to text, like we were afraid to face her.
So we decided to tell teacher the following day. We chose our songs and started
choreographing that day.

We faced teacher early in the morning, me, Zheng Chee and Sophiya. It was
surprisingly easy. She didn't seem disappointed, just concerned. We were practically
jumping for joy. In class, however, she changed her mind. She told us to practice
more and change characters, then it would be alright. Imagine how disappointed we
were. Later, in the hall, she changed her mind once again. She said it would be
possible, only if we practiced well. After school, we went over to Sri Melor for
lunch. Only the girls were going to practice in school that day. The rest of the boys
went to Brian's house for choreographing and practice. We had no space to practicei
in school, so we ended up going down to the tiny space in front of the door to some
who-knows-what room. We used Poker Face by Lady Gaga and Everytime We Touch
by Cascada. Credits- Choreography-Lyanne
-The Fabulous, Amazing, Astounding, and Wonderful Ng Shi Hui. (Are you happy now?
Stop messing up my cbox!!)

The girls came to my house to practice. We learnt Shi Hui's final choreography for
the ending of Poker Face and we did an overall practice. Watched Hellboy in the
morning, had pizza in the afternoon and played Gamecube in the evening. lolz... =]

Went to church and Brian called me and texted non-stop cuz he already wanted to
go to my house even if service wasn't over yet. When I got back, Xiong Jie and Brian
were already there...Soon, everyone was there except Wei Sean, Zi Shan, Zheng Chee and Shi Hui. Zi Shan had already called me to tell me that he couldn't come.
Whereas Wei Sean and Shi Hui weren't answering their phones. Zheng Chee told me
that he could only come at 3. We started practicing outside on the porch. Then,
Zheng Chee and Shi Hui came. We managed to have a pretty "okay" practice if I say
so myself... =]

BIG day arrived.... Time for auditions with the teachers.... Went to school early in
the morning to find the guys already practicing... (The nerves must be getting at
them...) Soon, we were whisked off to our school's big-but-not-so-huge
multipurpose hall. We were about the 2nd last class to perform. When it was our
turn, I handed over the CD and prayed that there were no problems. Keep wishing!
The first time the boys started dancing, suddenly Brian said that it was the wrong
song. I was like- WTH??? So the teacher was kind enough to replay the song. The
second time, it really WAS the wrong song. She was suppose to play the Smooth
Criminal/ Thriller remix, but instead she played Smooth Criminal/Billy Jean remix.
*Sigh...* The teacher in charge told us to get off stage and try again on Wednesday.
Thank goodness, the actual selection was on Wed....

Stayed back after school for dance practice. My music player's speakers were "a
little" faulty, so we could hardly hear the music even though we were outside the
main doors of the hall. Later, the teacher in charge was smart enough to open the
doors. Thanks alot!! The music inside the hall itself was blaring so loudly that I
couldn't even hear the player's music even though my ear was against it!! (Don't
blame the ear infection, it has absolutely nothing to do with this!!!) You think things
couldn't get any worse? Well guess what. They did. We were drinking ice-lemon-tea
outside the hall and Zheng Chee accidentally knocked into Inez who was holding a
packet. The ice-lemon-tea spilled all over the floor and Inez went to the art room to
get cloths. But too late, the teacher came out and saw the mess. BUSTED.... Oh
crap, she said she was going to tell our form teacher. Everyone was like emo-ing and
Zi Shan brought a mop for me and Inez to mop the ice-lemon-tea up. We even
mopped the whole floor outside of the hall, just to show our "apologies" to the
teacher. But unfortunately, the teacher had already gone, and she didn't see the
results of our cleaning work. Everyone in the group was so upset, and emo, and
negative about everything, I nearly wanted to fling myself off the 4th floor.

So worried about whether we would be allowed to go on stage after yesterday's
incident. Fortunately, either the teacher forgot, or she was kind enough to excuse
our careless mistake. In short, we got to perform. And guess what? We got chosen!!!
Yipeee!!!!!! There were a few technical difficulties though.... First, the school's
music player/ boom box (whatever) wasn't working, so the teacher had to borrow
6G's music player and hold a mike to it. Unfortunately, the teacher pressed pause at
the end of the boys' song and forgot about us girls. Oh crap... Luckily ,the school's
music player/ boom box ( I seriously don't care) was working again, so we managed
to perform the full song without anymore problems. Other classes weren't so lucky
though... 6G's music just stopped in the middle of nowhere and the had to continue
dancing WITHOUT music. Oh bummer... Pity them .... After that, there were many
other problems but I'm not gonna list them out. Weee!!! =]
8.10.2009
Nothing much today... I think..... Oh okay.. Today no practice in school cuz the
teachers were having some sort of meeting that day. That's about it!! Oh... yeah
one more thing... Claudia came over to my house after school bcuz she didn't have
transport back home. We were playing maple so much, we practically went
insane....
9.10.2009
Nothing much today again. Stayed back in school as usual for practice. Me love Sri
Melor and syrup!!! That night, went to my aunt's house to sleep over.
10.10.2009
Woke up trying to figure out where I was. Oh. My aunt's house... Shucks, time to
make mango pudding!!! Clau called me at 8.30 asking whether she could come when
I told her to come at 9. When she called me, she was already on her way there.
Poof. I couldn't say no, could I? Soon, Chong En was there. Peeled mangoes, then
sliced, then pureed. Not enough mango so my aunt went out to buy some more. We
carried on peeling, slicing and pureeing. Chong En sliced his finger instead of the
mango. Oh wow. Very smart, Chong En. When my aunt was back, more peeling,
slicing and pureeing. When all the mangoes where finally done and pureed, we
started with the stirring and mixing. Gelatin, sugar, warm water and ice cubes. Mix
in the mango and voila! A bowl of mango sludge is ready. Arranging nata de cocos
inside the containers, pour in the sludge and voila! What do you get? 25 plastic
containers full of mango-flavoured-nata-de-coco-filled-baby-mash. At 12 o'clock,
Chong En went back. My dad picked me and Clau from my aunt's house and we went
home. Had Mc'd for lunch then watched Amazing Race. (How careless to lose travel
documents..) After Amazing Race, we watched nigahiga vids and played maple until
Clau went home. Mango pudding is still not solidifying so in the freezer it goes.

Woke up and checked the mango pudding. Still baby mash, some ice. Who cares.
Brought the ice-box to school, was REALLY REALLY early. Hardly anyone was in
school yet. *Yawn* Soon Family Day started. Everything was a hustle and bustle at
our stall. My shift was the first shift so we had the privilege of getting to do the "
Stall Opening". Brian was standing a chair, ringing a bell and shouting for buyers;
Chong En was busying himself with the Rootbeer Floats; Yee Ling was collecting
money whereas I.... I was... Umm... Just helping out everywhere.. =] Soon it was
9.30 and we were suppose to perform. Unfortunately, it was rainning and we
couldn't perform. We thought it was canceled so we went along our own ways.
About 11 o'clock, the teacher in charge announced our names and told us to get
ready for our performance. We were so shocked and everyone was trying to round
up all the group members. In the end, we managed to conjure up a fairly
appreciatable dance. Weee!!!
I'm really lazy to continue typing right now, so I'll continue "recaping" on the next
blog. Regards!!!!!
