GOT TO TALK! but since i better not waste my voice unnecessarily, i'll blog. lots to say, so get comfortable. pushing this down to the 2nd post cos i wanna give my montage more air time. :D

so tired. so sian of life. sigh. sigh. exams are almost over. yay? lit today wasn't that bad. at least my nose wasn't leaking like a tap. still coughing tho. the poetry section was ok. did the "consorting with angels". although most of it was crap. but i think it was ok crap. the 2nd section was bad i think. i did the one about the struggle of the individual ultimately being the struggle between the self and the social institution. focused on lolita and the trial. so crappy. don't know what i wrote. i betcha if fjh marks it, i'll fail. sigh. all that crap about trying to confirm their existence. whatever. at least for the trial, it's obvious. for lolita, it's not. but i had to do lolita cos i can't remember anything else from anywhere else. sigh. so i'll just hope like heck that my section a can help. there was this guy sitting diagonally behind me, left the hall darn early. i think he had like 20 minutes to spare. what da hell?! when he left, i was frantically trying to wring my brain to think up points for how humbert is struggling against quilty is relevant. sigh. and i think i wrote darn little. as usual, i only wrote 2 and 1/2 pages. remembering how dr s always says that i write too little. haiz. just scrape through, whack and that's it lah.

very tired now. but have to mug for cultural studies. taking a breather before starting. sigh. no idea where to start. just trying to remember the stupid theories. wen hui recommends preparing some sort of cultural object. i think i'll try the fantasy story thing again. maybe i'll do better this time round. i really don't think i'll do well for cultural. even my project, i only got the B+ cos kevin helped me, practically writing my part. sigh. feel stupid again. 'just whack lah' is becoming my motto for exams. which is a bad thing. darn.

and it's going to rain. i hear the thunder. scary sia, i can hear my window grill rattling when it thunders. i've still got the heeby-jeebys on my mind ever since you know what. god, get it away! make me forget!! shouldn't have my air-con on. don't wanna catch cold again. lazy to do anything lah.

and again, here comes the time when i moan and groan about joining the choir. why? WHY?! gonna be so busy this hols. no time for a break. exams end tmr. i got 1 hr break. then choir till night. and the next day, choir again in school. and after that, everyday till the 9th, except sunday, 10am-4pm at siglap (thank god). sian. and i'm losing my voice again. and the competition...sigh. i miss meridian choir. at least there, isn't that much pressure to perform and live up to standard. nus, necessary to get gold for all the categories. and gold isn't just good enough. has to be gold A. sigh. and immediately after coming back from competition, preparation for carolling. (shangri-la on 24/25 dec, here i come!) st stephen's choir people, if i don't appear on sunday, or other days, you know why - i can't stand singing liao. can't wait for 18th to go cruise with sumi. gonna have to self learn the carolling pieces on the cruise.

anyway, to make me feel happy, i finally completed and uploaded that montage that i made. "can't fight this feeling" into a sort of friendship tribute thingy, focus on mj. haha! so happy with it. my first ever montage. another happy stuff, maiden tagged me!! haha! i didn't think anyone from the dc board actually visits my blog for a social visit. haha! haven't been to the board for such a long time. and then suddenly i go and she's there too! :)

moving on. i downloaded the jukebox tour. (so lagging) couldn't stop laughing when i watched it. clay looks alternatingly like a qi ko peh (those frankie foo types), a wind up toy, pretending to act cool and be a greaser. *goodness gracious! great balls of fire!* while dancing ON the darn grand piano :D or clay WINCING when he plays the piano for elvis medley. just thinking about it makes me laugh. especially the "can't touch this" crab dance sequence. and they've got really really really lame and cheesy dance sequences that clay tries (unsuccessfully imo) to get through, eg, they trying to do the can-can, clay's 'grease' hip shake. hilarious sia. my favourite is the 60s medley. sometime next year, i'm going to put that video here. clay can barely control his laughter in that song, esp the part "happy together" when he looks at angela. he just bursts out laughing for some reason. he's flirting lah, admit it. (btw, that's the song in the advert where the gal is jumping for the beer on the top shelf and the guy comes and grabs it and walks off.) i end up rofl when he does that crazy 'head banging' thing in "can't buy me love". thank god for clay. always cheering me up. (he shares the same birthday as my grandmother!)

"lost" ended it's run last week. it's so interesting. no regrets watching it. but so sad that it's not going to continue till next march. 4 months before finding out what happens. hate it when shows end on a cliffhanger like that. anyway now, i watch "project runway". haha! like it. my fav designer is austin. :D rooting for him. but i think he may get out pretty soon. he's been in the bottom half for a while. hope that wendy doesn't win. she's such an obnoxious bitch. ok, her designs are pretty good. but her personality. gosh! much to be desired. just for fun, here are my fav designers: austin, jay, kara saun. and btw, is the host heidi klum? that david copperfield used to go out with? what da hell was she wearing yesterday? looked like she forgot to wear her pants or something. gross.

talking about tv, did anyone see? the 7pm chinese show on channel 8 today. st stephen's was on it!!!! ok, not exactly st stephen's lah. they were filming some scenes at canossaville and st stephen's was very obviously in the background. haha! so excited. khoo should be proud. it's some sort of publicity for the church. *shrugs*

and that guy that's going to be hanged for drug trafficking. i don't get what's all the hype about it. the guy's guilty, he did it!!! so he must face the punishment. it's not as if he was framed or anything.

something funny i saw while blogsurfing. allan, cheryl and the 'M's. quote: "our christmas tree is up" guess where it is. it's literally up. on a shelf. haha! keeping it out of reach of the babies. love reading their blog. it's so fun. of course i don't know them. and they don't know me either. but still. haha! i did tell them that i was reading their blog (dropped a comment for them to see). take a look if ur blogsurfing.

some clossip: clay's back-up singer/sax player jacob apparently left the tour in the middle of the show. literally, he was there in the 1st half then vanished in the 2nd half. and clay didn't introduce him during the band intros. there are lots of speculation about why jacob left. (of course, we'll never know) some say maybe legitimate reasons, jacob had a personal emergency to attend to halfway through the show; but that doesn't tally with someone spotting him hanging around the venue after the show was over, talking into his hp. other people are saying that maybe jacob and clay had a tiff and clay sacked him or jacob resigned; reports were that jacob and clay's relationship was never that great, and keeping in mind that clay didn't acknowledge jacob's (half) presence at that show's band intros. some people say that jacob just decided to leave mid show; he is actually preparing for some sort of solo concert. whatever the reason, i still think that it's darn unprofessional that jacob walked during the intermission. whatever happens, the show must go on, right? (btw, there's a 27pg thread on the clayboard about this)

moving on to this nice bit of clossip that i gotta comment on. clay is wearing those colourful striped socks during his JNT. those type that duan hui wore once and howard said looked like wizard of oz witches. i just have to say (with a simon cowell accent): THat was absolutely HIDEOUS! i mean, ankle socks like that are ok. but those long ones...urgh. with a white suit. double urgh. and at first, those horizontal stripes are still on the lower end of urgh. but now he's wearing vertically striped socks. yuck. there are just some things that are just faux pas. no matter who wears them.

right. pretty long one. enough of this. back to mugging. i hope.

p.s sorry so much clay stuff today. clay's my way of relaxing from mugging. just had to talk abt it lah.

*goodness gracious! great balls of fire!!!*
