The last June 2011 post.

Throughout June, I :-
- Drove.
- Watched sunrise from Penang Hill.
- Rested my mind before hectic life came back.
- Returned playing guitar.
- Used Foursquare.
- Had my blog makeover.
- Procrastinated a lot. Duh!
- Celebrated friend's birthday.
- Had done more than ever, but words can never comprehend them all.

Here we are, the halfway mark of 2011.
It's fast, I suddenly realize.
Need to step up in studies.
2 months left to trials and so far I studied nothing.
Time to really wake up.
I realize, it was only just a dream.

I hope.

In case.

Hope for IA?

Minor. Really a minor possibility.
Hopefully I'll still successfully make it to attend.

Sports Day.

The day has come.
Woke up at 4:45a.m. again.
Can I have my life back?
Thanks to the school for combining all forms as a school day, the bus was congested.
And, I stood until I reached school.
Salute to my legs.

Went to Calvin's class with Chia Huey after getting my attendance taken.
Sherlyn and Michyy were there too. X)
Stood by the building to watch them marching.
I can say, the prefects had their steps messed at one point, and 5 of us noticed.
School band and police cadets were awesome. =))
*Great job Tash!*

Before heading to the athletes' base to root for them, man we're all starving.
Decided to buy a box of Domino's Aloha Chicken and shared among 7 people:
5 of us, Chinn Ying and Yee Wei.
Sharing is caring. =D

The pizza.

Be considerate a little, Chinn Ying would be running.
Temporary no pizzas for her before completing the 2 events - 100m and 4 X 100m.
What made things worse was, 100m was the 1st event to kick off the day.
Understand how she felt, butterflies in her stomach and nervousness showed on her face.
Thank God for blessing her, she managed to get a medal for the Blues. =))
Big hugs. =) Especially on 4 X 100m's success.
Thanks to the others too who've tried very, very hard for the medals.

Overall summary, this year we had these events with these awards:
[Class 1 : Forms 4-5; Class 2 : Forms 1-3.]
# High Jump Class 2 : Gold (Le Bin) and bronze (Jing Yi).
# 800m : Silver (Le Bin).
# Short Putt Class 1 : Silver (Evie).
# Discus Class 1 : Silver (Evie).
# 100m Class 2 : Bronze (Chinn Ying).
-It was a close call. She was lucky.-
# 400m Class 2 : Silver (Jia Ying).
# 200m Class 1 : Gold (Khai Xin).
# 4 X 100m Class 2 : Gold (Le Bin, Jia Ying, Khai San, Chinn Ying).
-First time ever, it's Blue domination in this event! X) And we won by around a 5-metre lead.-
# Best Marching House.
-We sort of lol-ed to this one, but great job girls!-
# Class 2 Best Athlete : Le Bin.
-Were surprised to hear the announcer said this, and congrats to Le Bin =)))-
*Not sure if I missed out any. Oops.*

I found this year's Sports Day somehow boring despite had myself at the base to watch the events.
No freedom of taking videos or photos.
We had to do it silently. Ugh.
During our comeback next year, we swear we're gonna carry tripods and DSLRs.

And here, we called it a day. Sigh.

Anticipation.

Its Thursday Thursday!
Gotta have fun on Thursdayy. 
Everybody's looking forward to the Sports Day Sports Day :D:D:D:D:D
 - Nicole
Quote from a classmate's tweet, tomorrow we're gonna rock the school!
Sports' Day is here!
As one of the loyal yet crazy Blues, I'm going to root for the athletes.
Yes, back at their athletes' base.
Thank you teacher!

Back to today.
Just had another blog makeover session.
Kinda love the current one better as I had problems managing the old template.
*Some gadget titles gone missing. Ugh.*
What do you feel about me changing a new template?
Do comment at the chat box.
I'll try to improve if there's any dissatisfaction or defects.

Refer back today's title.
The anticipation not only falls on Sports' Day, but also another upcoming event.
The IA Games.
Am still wondering if there's a possibility for me to go.
Not until my mum gives me an accurate answer about this.
What if I get rejected?
What if I don't get her understanding?
Let's just pray hard and hope that I'll be appearing. Lol!

I realize, it was only just a dream. - Sam Tsui & Christina Grimmie "Just A Dream".
After I came back from school this afternoon, this line doesn't affect me much any more.

If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
I'll for sure put my hands up high, for God. =)

-Jeez, am still obsessed with the song! Help me, Rebecca!-

After makeover.

Great. Now everything looks better.
At least there's now music to soothe your minds.

If you're here, please do leave a message at the chat box.
Or if possible, let me relink you.
Let us not lose connection this time alright?

Just a short post for today.
Still to come. =]

Back into action.

I've changed my old blog address and made the address to this one.
Still, I'll import my old posts and some particulars.

After my homework this evening, I was carrying my electric guitar.
Currently working on this song : Just A Dream by Nelly (Cover by Sam Tsui and Christina Grimmie).
Check out the awesome video right below :

Thanks to my classmate, Kathy for posting up the guitar tutorial of the song.
Nelly's version : Capo on the 6th fret, with chords Am, F, C and G repeating all over.
*Do you know Axis of Awesome's 4 Chords? This song can be part of it!*
For Sam and Christina's version, up another 1 and a half step from the original chords.
(High-pitched, but both of them totally changed my impression towards the song. X] )

Regarding to my music life, even after a year, I'm still a beginner.
I started to self learn guitar since 29.04.2010, and it's been almost 14 months.
At least I know how to transpose a few songs so far.
Here I have a suggestion : If you self learn, start from the songs you often listen to. It helps a lot.
Get most of your chords here.
Overall, thanks to Uncle Larry for lending us the guitar for so long. Deeply appreciate it. =)

It's quite late right now, shall sign off and head to rest in few minutes' time.
Goodnight readers and bloggers. Rest well.
