i just had the busiest 2 weeks ever. surviving on 3hours of sleep a day and staying in sch pass 6pm everyday. =/ haha. so lit week publicity should be coming to an end after today. just emailed mr ng the phamplets and programmes board stuff for printing. (: quite pleased with what has been done for it. i cant believed i designed a total of 20posters or so for it. plus 30 over quote cards. and proabably infested the school with 1000 fairies.(which was kinda the mascot for lit week. and the theme is midsummer madness) now my comp is exploding with lack of disk space. of course i didnt do all of these alone. :D
major love to all in the publicity committee:
changrong<3 yuru<3 elaineeeeeee sabbie! angieerhan(: xiaole:D leewenliang-_- zhengyi:)
i wouldnt know what to do without you guys and i cant thank you guys enough and im uberly sorry i took up so much of ur time! but thanks for staying in sch till late and cutting the fairies till ur fingers turned sore and going round the school putting up 200 posters and putting up with my slave-driving ness. (:
and many many many many many thanks to
Mr Ng and
Gavin!
and to the random ppl who helped. like Sarahsmith and her dad. Shalom agnes samjo teckheng huanyong marcus tonghin tianhui elbert(for staying up) and everyone else in the lit week committee. :D
lit week's next week. i wonder how it'll turn out. (:
cip on friday for dreams@kolam ayer. basically a concert was held to allow youths to showcase their talent and bernie xiaole yuru changrong aggy and i, together with 2 of bernie's classmates, were suppose to make sure the performers were there and ready when it was their turn to perform. the performers were really good and i daresay they deserve to be on Singapore Idol more than some contestants. but anyway the turn out was...well..bad? maybe it's the publicity. maybe it's the location. when i grow up i shall hold a similar event, but one that is more large scale. because there are talent out there. they just need chances and opportunities. (:
cip on sat for youth for causes-angels with hearts. oh and i met WINSTON at raffles place. and he told me he met char and karen the day before. hah. havent seen them in ages either. think i'll meet karen nxt sun cause she's helping xingyan for some cip thing too. anyway, back to the cip. basically going around asking people to donate $2 and then write words of encouragement and wellwishes at the back of the card for the people in the organistation. the organisation is Very Special Arts Singapore that basically helps the disabled to pursue a career in the arts and you know find their place in society and all. most people were quite generous but others were quite doubtful about the organisation, especially with all the scandals lately. i really dont understand why people are willing to stoop to such means to get money. it's so horrid cause it affects real organistations who are trying to get money to help the people who are truely in need. =/ but managed to raise a bit desite only doing it for 4 hours or so. (:
anyway i have so much homework to complete. =( and i desperately need to catch up with my work. and i have decided that no one's gna ever return me my ipod. =( and im thankful i have friends like yuru and changrong to force me to do work.
and i realised yesterday morning that i have not seen my grandpa in for days when i saw him yesterday morning at breakfast. and we stay together! and my house is so tiny. i think it's cause i've been so busy late. when i leave for sch, he's not awake. when i come home from sch, he's asleep. =( havent had the time to speak much to the rest of the family members either. ah i dno. and im just a student. when i do grow up and get a job etc, will my relationship with my parents etc. just dissolve away somehow. i do wonder why we keep ourselves so busy. and yesterday when dad drove me home i met my cousins etc at the void deck cause they came to visit! and then i realise i havent seen them since the hols. we are that busy huh? =( and i miss shiyi! and i have been too busy to go out with fiona despite her asking a good 5 times i think. rahh.
SLOW DANCE
Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask "How are you?"
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?
You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say "Hi"?
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.
im expecting myself to be less busy after lit week and then maybe i can work on my studies and not get kicked out of rj at the end of this year. or retained. i cant decide which is worse.
and now im off to enjoy whatever that is left of my no-school, no-work day. (:
