Pre-Holidays Syndrome |
(0)
Heyo. =)) I'm pretty high recently I don't know why. Especially last night. But I think it's the alcohol..Wait, no...I'm high before the alcohol already. Haha and I slowly calm down after the alcohol..I got tired..don't judge me.
So this term I have no tests at all =)) AT ALL!! WHOOO. But everything is a give and take. So, no tests this term, means there's
WHOLE LOT OF ASSIGNMENTS. Which sucks..sucks much. So, here I am having the last week of my term after 2 months of holidays and 1 and a half months of study days and it's one month of holiday again. Poly is weird in this sense =(( 3 years of studies they tell you but actually You're only in school for like one and a half year. Much wow much holiday much little studies. Even though I have one month of holiday I didn't really get to spend time with my family in J.B. much also. There's always so much events and so so much stuff and events and studies to do here in Singapore. Like, I have recordings, I have cca events, I have work here as well. I do enjoy my life here but sometimes I wanted my life in JB as well. Singapore is always moving so so fast that I couldn't catch up sometimes. JB is so chill and relax and makes me feel like slacking whole day and not do any work. So...we're back to the give and take thing. Hahaha. Both places have the people I love. So, sometime's it's hard to juggle all these things. Really have to plan my time really really well.
=)) The need to smile in front of people when you're not happy is hard. But nowadays I'm trying not to do that anymore. Just show whatever I feel inside out to everyone. Even though it's not necessarily a good thing to learn but at least I can express it out instead of hiding inside. Also, I have to learn how to rely lesser on other people. Especially my happiness. I rely a lot of my happiness on the people I love. Too much in fact, I gotta learn how to make myself happy for just being myself. =)) I do appreciate the people who walked into my life no matter what my feelings are to the person. Love, or hate. The people I don't like too taught me stuff that I didn't know. I do try to appreciate them more. And I am learning how to not say bad stuff about them behind their backs. Even though I really don't like them. Still in the process of learning =)) Hopefully everything will turn out alright.
Ohh did I mention that I went to a bar last night? I went to Muddy Murphy's yesterday night to support my friends who are performing there with their band =)) 'Shrink The Sun'.
They have drummer from the Philippines, Singer from the UK, Keyboardist from the States, and as for the guitarist, violinist and bassist, they're from Singapore. =)) #SUPPORTLOCALARTIST They're awesome I tell you guys. You guys have to catch their performance at least once =)) I'm serious. serious serious. I can't guarantee that you guys will love them, because everyone have different taste when it comes to music, but they're really good and I've seen them working hard for this. It's all the hard work.
Whoo go Eugene Go Euchim
Hobos in da house
Advance press!! well..almost.
The two guys plus this guy is the whole Advance Press!! Whoo support them! =))
Guys, meet my friends.
Erm...no one knows what Jeff is doing. so...yeah he's the violinist. He's also a bassist =)) And a pianist. Multi talented la!
And that's pretty much it ah. hahahahah. Hope everyone will be healthy always and be happy =)) And with both of these and you're alive, so you'll be alright. =)) Just have to look for the reason why. Because there's always a reason and you just have to go look for it, instead of just waiting..=))
Love,
Jia-Qi

Finally I'm back blogging. It's quite a while back since I last blogged. Recently happy things happened, bad things happened, stressful things happened.
A short update would be,
- Term 4 is extremely stressful and busy yet I'm procrastinating by writing blog posts over here.
- MD concert is a great and wonderful experience to me. Had so much fun. Stressful but still it's fun. Had a blast that night. Seniors are leaving us, but I believe that we'll do great and make them proud =)) 90++% of the tickets are sold. Oh did I mention that the concert is in Esplanade concert hall??? =))
- LiYun, my secondary school best friend whom I knew for like 7 years and still counting, we started to talk again after like a year without contacting each other. =)) It's definitely a very very good thing that happened to me. But I really do hope that I would be close with Jolene and Siaw Yee once again too.....
- I met the someone special. =)) Happy with him and at the same time worried about him quite frequent too. But we're fine. =)) ♥
That actually sums up my whole "Missing period" actually. =)) Pretty happy about it. Haven't been blogging for a very long time. Thanks to those who did spend time to read my useless blog. Love you all. ♥♥♥ =))
Love,
Jia-Qi..

My class now is the most weirdest, annoying, eccentric and THE BEST classmates I had ever had.
I'm so sorry to be so random all the time. HAHAHA. I'm always random and I'm weird as well because I'm always that weird?? Ok now I'm being weird again. But anyway, my classmates love to annoy people in every single possible way and they love to do weird stuff. Such as.....you don't wanna know... I suck at describing. But I needed describing skills. So, I needa practice!!
So let me dedicate this whole post to my lovely classmates. ONE BY ONE? Should I?
I know that my cert can eat one and taste like samosa. And my friend is like comforting me and tried not letting me lose confidence in myself since I don't really have much in me. But awwwwwwwwww. Thanks for comforting me still and I'm actually very surprised when I first saw the message. The confidence message. It's really really sweet and it was totally random and unexpected? But thanks!! =)) Sometimes when I'm sad and what they'll actually support me and then give me a smile, comfort me, offer me their place to stay?? HAHA! And my friend always gives me love when I needed them and they treat me damn nice lah. I don't know how to express my feelings for them. It's like trying to find out what number is the largest in this whole wide world. Impossible right?? I actually annoyed my whole class...not always but...most of the time I guess? Haha! Sorry for being an ass sometimes. But I still love y'all !! Ok maybe always....I don't know!!
So, this post is specially dedicated to JiaJun, Brandon, Norman Yeo Sheng Quan the Part Thai, Izyan bin Jaizi, Eugene YouChim, ShuKai the Bitch, Caleb Koa Zu Le, Joash Jeremiah Foo, Malcolm the Part Thai Gay, Gregory Teo Wen Hui the Baba, Kaela Chua Xin Rui the blur queen, MeiTing the mum, Christabel Joyce my mum, Qin Yan the blur queen number 2 and finally my baby Vanessa Chia Wen Xin.
I love you guys, you guys are awesome, I definitely had a great time spending with y'all and I definitely tell stories of you guys to my friend and laugh at you all behind your back. HAHA!! *Hugs*
I'm still waiting for our second bonding trip!!!!!! HAHAHAAHAHAAHA

Hey peeps! I'm back after one week of tiredness. Tired but fun I mean! But the worst thing is the haze ruined everything!! BLAME THE HAZE!!
So, basically Music Fiesta is all about music. Duhh. Students from several secondary schools in Singapore came to SP to experience what it's like to compose music and be surrounded by DMAT weirdos. I'm being assigned to be the mentor for students from Evergreen Sec!! Aww my kids are super cute and we're AWESOME!! Oh yeah my partner is Debbie, she's a cutie pie from MALAYSIA as well!!! Whoo! Whoo!! Do you know how hard it is to find a Malaysian that get into DMAT with SPM result?!?!?! She's from Sabah, year 2 but I never seen her before...not that I'm surprise, I never seen a lot of people before. I'm such a katak....
Anyways, we're team 23 and the song we composed is AWESOME! Great job guys! In two two two two ooh~ haha! But they didn't managed to get into finals. Even so, I'm already very proud of you guys! You guys did a great job! =)) I love you guys! Oh did I mention that I found a sec 2 boyfriend that last for like a few hours? HAHAHA!! That's so funny!
There he is, Ayirul. I think I spell it correctly. I think... I'm sorry!
There's Amierul, Ayirul, Debbie, Asyeeqin, Fahimah and me! I know I spelled some of the names wrongly but it is pronounced like that. I'm sorry!!!
I'm so proud of all of them. Really, from the bottom of my heart. =)) <3 <3
There's another group who's awesome! We share the same room when we're composing our song. Their song is really cool!! Haha!! They're from another school which I forget the school name...I'm sorry... But their names are Jamie and Geraldine. And the mentors is my Babyy Vanessa and Cute Xin Man!! Oh yeah by the way, the one of the IC spend his time in our classroom a lot. Keep on slacking. Cheh! But he did encourage all of them a lot. So, I'm very thankful for that =)) Thank you JUNYUAN!!! Oh yeah Jamie and Geraldine are the 2nd runner up for the competition!!! WHOOOOO~!!!!!!!!!!! Respect original work, respect IP~ lah lah lah lah lah lah, originality! Sorry I can't remember all the lyrics..Heheheh. You guys did great! Awesome!!!!!
Here's all of them! Without me...I left early..The worst part. I have to leave early...Proud of all of you!! Keep it up!
Sigh...the sad part is that things have to end. Music Fiesta had ended. Officially ended. Until next year. I wonder if I get to meet them again or not. I missed them already..=(( You guys must come again next year!! =)) MUST! I'll miss you all!!
Camwhoring time. HAHA!

Finally my friends are free!! HAHA!! I just came back from my friend CY's house. We actually planned to study, but it failed...not that I'm surprised. JunYi's the only one who studied. He did his STPM math questions. I don't understand a thing he did.
So, I borrowed the guitar from ChingYi to learn a few chords but turned out I only remembered A, G, C and D. Sigh...I have a lot to learn. Wish me luck. This morning we went out for breakfast and accidentally met my juniors which didn't jio us for training. So, we kinda went there to play with them. HAHAHA!! Aww I miss them so much!!! =))
They're the only ones which I can do whatever I want. Being just me myself no matter how ugly how fat I am, talking about dirty jokes, teasing each other and pissing each other off and never get angry with each other. Well, most of the time. The place where they are is the place I can break free from any kind of stress and forget any hard and sad stuff that I've been through. They're the ones who make me who I am. Even though We might not meet each other every single day like we used to but I know the feelings we have for each other will always be there =)) I love you guys!! =)) And I'm serious about all these stuff I'm talking about so shut up WeiFeng. HAHAHA!!!
And I want to thank my lovely juniors for always bringing laughter for me and for every ahli in our team. =)) I love you!! Forever and Always less than 3.
My heart has a lot of people. HAHAHA!!
There's me, JunYi, and ChingYi trying her best to teach YikKai how to play the piano. HAHAHA!!
I played the guitar!!!
Don't ask..I have no idea why.
There's YikKai trying to run away from the camera.
There's YikKai's feet! And JunYi taking a break from math.
I don't act like a girl when I was with them. Seriously. They don't even treat me like a girl.
Pretty ChingYi =)) <3 <3
And thanks for reading =)) XOXOXO

SSO, which is Singapore Symphony Orchestra has a performance, which is FREE, the night before yesterday at School Of The Arts. It's my first time going to any concert. ANY. None. NEVER. Coz it's always expensive. So, since this is free, and they're the famous SSO, I'm lucky that I get to listen to them. They're AWESOME!! Darrell Ang is AWESOME!!
So, I didn't get to take pictures with him, coz he left after a while but my friend did get to take picture with him..and she's so happy...haih...it's going to take a while for her to chill.
So, he's awesome, the piece is awesome, the place is awesome and I'm awesome. =))
Stephen Hough is also there as well!! He's A-W-E-S-O-M-E! Well, he's actually more than just a performer. He's also a composer and a writer. Impressive..He performed in several countries like Australia, United States, United Kingdom, Czech and Russia. He's really a great great pianist. Definitely one of the best. He played Paganini with variations that day with the orchestra and he has a solo performance as well.
As for Darrell Ang, he's quite a young guy. Handsome as well =))
He graduated from a lot of universities. Seriously there's a lot. Oh by the way, he's a Yale University alumni...CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!! IT'S YALE!!
And a lot more universities. But anyways, he's one of the best conductor in SSO. And my friend's crazy about him for several days. Hopefully she'll calm down soon. =)) haha!!
SSO played 3 pieces in the whole concert. The first piece is Khovanshchina by Modeste Petrovich Muddorgsky. The composer of this piece is a Russian. He loves his country very very much. The piece is actually about a peaceful and awe-inspiring sunrise over Moscow.
The second piece is Pictures at an Exhibition by Mussorgsky as well. They broke down the piece into 3 parts if I'm not mistaken. And they didn't played it as the usual order which makes it more interesting and less boring. Darrell did a good job in explaining the story of Mussorgsky that inspires him to compose this masterpiece. Pictures at an Exhibition is composed when Mussorgsky's best friend, Viktor Hartmann died. He was walking around at an art gallery, appreciating paintings from Viktor and those paintings inspire Mussorgsky to compose this piece with 10 movements. But they didn't play all of them. Just a few.
Lastly, it's Variations on a Theme by Paganini by Witold Lutosławaski. It's a famous piece of work. So, I'll skip the intro. Stephen Hough's awesome!! =))
So, after that we waited for Michael to come out from the backstage and then hoping that we can take picture with him. But unfortunately, we're too late. We called him several times but he didn't pick up. He left before we could met him as he's not feeling well that day. So, he left right after the concert ends. But I still Love him. he's the best PT ever.
So, that's about it. it's a great day, I had fun with Engene the Guitar God which is full of shit, SK2, Vanessa who got the scholarship, Christabel which keeps on texting AhBoy and Qin Yan which is happy that the spring of her clarinet is not broken. Haha!!
Thanks a lot for being such great friends. =))
And Thanks to all of you who are reading my bloggg. =)) Sorry for writing such wordy posts all the time!! I just couldn't help it. Haha! I have a lot of stories to tell. Should have more in the future. Stay Tuned!!!
Here's Vanessa and handsome Darrell =))
