...not today.
today was not bad. the mass went well, after the initial kan cheong attacks. and kan cheong attacks because of what happened that warrants the scoldings. i asked them all to come down at 7pm. at 7pm, the only people there were tian, randall, andrew and andrea. all the way until 7,30 less than half of the choir was there. we had not warmed up, not practiced, nothing. and we're going to do a relatively important mass. st ant's began quite scarily. fr paul came in and did not go to the altar seat through 2 verses of "shine jesus shine". so panicking me decided to just end the song and i was right! as i ended the song, he moved up to the stand. and the rest went quite well. happy that i got "alleluia" right! yay! my first time doing that version! i absolutely loved "ave maria" and "praise her with a flower". could hear the congregation singing, and really got into the feel of the song. i think it was probably my best ever at the organ. :D especially the "flower" song. it was supposed to be recessional, but the people were not moving. :O so, we sang the entire song through and people were blasting so much all the way to the end. touched. it's times like these that it feels worth all the stress.
lectures went quite well also. spent most of the last 2 days in the foreign lands of science fac and engine fac. MA2101 on monday was not bad. i kinda like the lecturer. prof lian. he's the really no-nonsense type. the type that really gave me the impression that he was going to yell at the latecomers. there was this thing he said, "if you don't understand the lecture, go back and study your notes. if you still don't understand, come and find me. if you're scared to find me, then you should drop the course." woah. somehow i appreciate such frankness.
MA1102R was ok. very cheena lecturer. Wang Fei is his name. don't know his title. the fancy computer stuff that he tried to use, ie, the stylus, repeatedly refused to work for him. and the mic also was so soft no matter what he tried to do. but calculus seems easy at this point. he says it's more computational rather than analytical. so thank god for that. i've got enough of analysis with linear algebra already. saw cass in the class, but i don't think she saw me.
GEK1500. one of those that's going to be like genes and soc, i can sense it. the lecturer, dr soh, is the most cheena one i've got thus far. the type that can't pronounce "R" but does it as an "L". "zero" became "jilo". "clap" became "crap". omg! there was a rep from the textbook publisher there to talk to us, and after he was done, we clapped for him and dr soh said, "later, let's see if there's any 'crapping' for me also." *jaw drops* oh.my.freaking.god.
and you know how i used to say that arts fac is run down? i changed my mind. science fac is the most run down place of all. LT26 still uses those fold up wooden chairs for lectures. LT21 is so ulu and feels SO old. there's construction work all over the place. the only things that look new there are the computers and projector screens. everything else...imagine years and years ago style, with aircon. LT25 of 2 sems ago deceived me. none of the arts lecture theatres are like that lor.
anyway, it's nice. tmr going back to my old stamping ground, the arts fac. i miss it already. oh and talking about missing, i miss my MA1101R lecturer, mr toh. don't know why. i think i'm inadvertly comparing my other maths lecturers with him. lol. he should be proud. he did a relatively good job in lecturing back then.
oh, and btw, westlife is coming to singapore in sept (i think it's sept). dilemma whether to go or not to go. i used to really like westlife. but...it's the cost. and also, no one to go with me. so, anyone who knows me and wants to go to a westlife concert with me, let me know!
alrighty. all for now. need to get down to that article for zac that i got no motivation to do. :p
