last weekend finally met up with my uncle and the rest of his family, two cousins, one in SAJC the other in the Integrated Programme of NJC. (they have this class called arts appreciation that they just watch films/plays..etc! totally cool! and MOE subsidise 60% for ticket price, say for sound of music, if there are enough people going.)
anyways, i was brought to a place near Beach Road, can't remember the actual street name (starts with a P-) the restaurant is called Yen Com or something. (yi4 qun2 in chinese) It's quite famous for its chicken rice and steamboat apparently. My aunt revealed that she's been going there since she was 10! we found out that the restaurant has been established since 1940. meal was not bad, fragrant rice and steamboat-ed beef. was quite filling after that we milled around Raffles City shopping mall, and ended up in the food court! my aunt said, "we're an eating family" hahaha. i can't survive eating like them. my stomach's about to burst, but still ate dessert, ice longan with chincau and lime juice. lovely.
other than that, horrid PE on monday, was bathing in my own sweat again. tuesday's group PE was lonely, with only me and Wen (darn Maths S) playing basketball or rather i tried to stay outta the game as much as possible. in the end it was like Beta against Gamma. 15/04 quite scary. they played much like a competitive team, had lotsa sharpshooters too. everybody gelled well together. after math s (with mrs. tag getting so agitated over faking of signatures she lectured us on the lack of conscience of cheating blablabla) guitar at auditorium again. so stuffy. Mr. liaow had a funny exercise in store for us since he accused our brains of not connecting with our fingers thus not playing the dynamics well enough. so the result is.... place your right fingers over your left hand... go on, try it... and ask your right hand to convey sadness or other emotions to your other hand. i felt like laughing so much, but was supposed to be sad...."trust me, do this till SYF, and your performance will improve a lot"
then the next exercise was to listen to 6 sounds at a time before going to sleep coz he said we were too robotic in playing like we all memorised our own parts and don't listen to each other. i tried later in mar's room but can only pick up 3 haha. too silent.
yesterday, had the first GP band 1 class. we watched an episode of the West Wing, which i was a bit confounded by, the characters talk like speedtrains and i didn't have much interest in law and politics anyway. feel like im a pseudo-band1 student. don't know much bout general knowledge? how to motivate myself to read more news? maybe i should start posting news of the week here... that's an idea..
