NUS Open House

Met up with Mazi at Buona Vista and took 95 to NUS U-Town! Just alighting at Buona Vista made me all nostalgic about the Adam Lambert concert :( Anyways, U-Town looked nice, hip and happening! Saw a few performances put up by the NUS students. Was particularly impressed by a guy who sang and the NUS cheerleaders! Their jumps, flips, etc were awesome! And they kept smiling throughout so it seemed effortless when I doubt it actually was!

Saw a lot of familiar people yesterday: Rebecca, Nasuha, Jiaxin, Charmaine, Gideon, Afifah, Priyanga, Yu Feng and on the way home we ran into Mr Wangyal and his family. Apparently they were going to go watch The Croods! LOL.

I accompanied Mazi and went for the Design and Environment talk at the Ngee Ann Kongsi Auditorium. Similar to the SMU Business talk, this talk also had a lecturer and some students giving us more personalised details about their courses and their experiences. The talk about going overseas never fails to excite me! =X

After that Mazi and I hung around and waited for the FASS talk to start. But when we got to the queue, we realised the queue had already been formed long ago and it was a very long one! :( So although we still queued up, there were no more seats for the talk :( I was very disappointed. Lesson learned: when I go for the NUS open day next year, I will have to queue up AT LEAST half an hour beforehand for the FASS talk.

After that I went for the campus tour with Mazi and we got to see the School of D&E. We also went for the talk on architecture and got to see the studios that the students worked in. Since archi is not my cup of tea, more than anything else, I was really overwhelmed by the stuff they do. Hope Mazi was inspired though :)

NUS is so huge that we had to take a bus from U-TOWN to the school of D &E and also the Cultural Centre. We were really tired after the studio tour so we just went home. After I came home I was so exhausted that I just slacked and then went to sleep early. I feel so bad for slacking though, since the common tests are coming up :( I'll try my best to make today productive! :)

All the best to everyone for their common tests! :) Don't slack like me! 

Guess who's coming to Singapore?

I mentioned in my previous post about a Singapore duo called Trick who just exploded onto the Singapore music scene this year with their song BPM! Well, I follow them on Twitter and they follow me back. Just last week they told their fans that they are interested in performing in schools for their fans! So OF COURSE I suggested to them that they come to JJC! And they replied me saying that as long as our teachers give the thumbs up, they will come! So needless to say I was uber excited!

The first teacher I approached was Miss June. She told me that Ms Choo is in charge of arts performances in school during assembly and coincidentally she is my PE teacher. So I approached her immediately with regards to this issue! I got Trick's email and gave it to Ms Choo and asked her to check them out on YouTube! :)

At first things looked hopeful but a few days later she told me that she had checked them out already and they were "very pop" and in schools they want to expose us to things not so mainstream =.=' AND it had to be approved by our VP too, and the chances are very low of the VP accepting a pop group! Gone case~ NEVER MIND.

Another thing I wanted to rant about is the fact that Adam Lambert, one of the singers I most look up to, is coming to Singapore in March and I might not have the money to buy the tickets. >< (NO heart to ask parents and I don't save) The only hope is that Darren offered a loan! LOL, future banker. :D And lifesaver! I promised I would return it back to him by Dec! Hope he helps me out or I'm gonna miss Adam Lambert's concert and who knows when he will come back! Chin is working now so probably Chin can use the money earned to go to the concert too! *fingers crossed*

Now about school! I probably failed every test that has been thrown towards me so far...physics, maths and even GP! @.@ I feel so bad. WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE? Ok shall go off now! Time to sleep! Nights~
