does he drive you wild / or just mildy free

Damien Rice is so awfully raw it’s unbearable. Just got a 20% voucher from Borders: The Shortlist(: Must go spend it soon, expires end of this month. And I borrowed Step Up to watch from LaserFlair today, the guy made this big deal out of me not having my NRIC and made me leave $20 as a deposit ’cause I only had an EZ-Link. But whatever.

 Channing Tatum’s so gorgeous. And the choreography is just, wow, especially the opening scene; Jenna Dewan’s clothes, and “Lucy” ’s clothes are even better. It was more impressive in the cinema when I watched it with my parents, but it was worth the $3 plus big fuss.

Sometimes, when I watch movies like Step Up, I wish I’d continued with classical ballet and/or jazz ballet at SBA, but I seriously have no time ’cause I’m this hell of a procrastinator and my schedule would be hell. I was only Grade 3, and I had to go twice a week. Haha in fact when I think about it I’m not that great at dancing, it’s just my sense of rhythm and movement that lets me pass the mediocre mark.

And of course if I had continued with ballet and jazz ballet, that’d be 3 classes per week, and that would therefore get me awesome leg mussels and not these stick-calves and jelly-thighs I’ve got now. But, NO TIME. And before I quit, I was starting to get sick of going to Fort Canning for ballet, especially for my Saturday class. I remember on one of my school days it’d be Bukit Timah for school, Jurong East for violin, then Fort Canning for ballet, and then a short one hour break, then jazz ballet, and I’d end up at home only at about 10.

No wonder I was so thin until Sec 1.

Oh yeah. 312’s class dynamics are improving, I think! Yay! I still miss the comraderie (sp?) 213 had, both with (selected, /cough maria ho) teachers and each other. But 312 isn’t really as divided as 213 was in the start, so I think we’re okay- except for people like Ruoting and Laura, who are nice and all, but sometimes the muttering behind me gets really irritating because I can’t hear what the teacher is saying /guaikia.

Haha like on Monday me and Elissa- okay, actually our entire class- were laughing like practically the whole half of a day. I dunno whether we strated out laughing at the Bio relief and her weird pronounciation, but suddenly I started to be tickled by everything and Elissa was laughing at me laughing, so :/

It was like quite warm, because Ms Leow wanted the fans off so we could “hear her better”, and our aircon is totally useless unless you leave it on through the night (we accidentally did that once heh). So, I was like fidgeting on my chair, and suddenly I said, “My butt is sticking to my chair! :/” And Elissa was like “WHAAAT SO RANDOM, SYDNEY!” then she started shaking with suppressed laughter (overused phrases ftw), so I started laughing at my randomness, and then Charisse started laughing too, so basically the entire class cracked up after that and Ms Leow was like “Okay I don’t know why you guys are so happy today, but can we please get back to the lesson?!”

Hahaha I think reliefs have quite a hard time, especially the young trainee teachers (Ms Leow’s a trainee hoho). But they’re usually quite nice to us, it’s actually more like we’re mean to them >:

Anyway today I accomplished two extraordinary things!

1. I managed to run our three rounds round the track NON STOP without stopping! NOT ONCE YAY. And I actually maintained the speed I started with, which was like faster than my average(:  Plus, after I finished running, I was only a bit tired, mainly because my throat was very dry. I hope I can do the non-stop jogging during my 2.4 on the 26th :/ The entire Strings will be doing 2.4 with the (probably still enthu and fit) secones, uh-oh. Must train!

2. I DID HOMEWORK EARLY! Hahahaha after like tons of overdue homework I finally did something today, like EARLY. And I finished the researhc in like 1 hour! (: Shows that when I want to do something I’ll do it heh. But I didn’t do the Chinese discussion zao3bao4 thing that’s due for presentation tmr aiyo, ’cause Candice forgot to scan the article and I forgot to bring my paper home, so Jo’s scanning it for me now(: I dont think I’ll do it tonight though, there’s always tomorrow morning.

‘Kay I shall attempt to print the article and SS stuff. Stupid printer, /kick.
