today, i suppose you could call it eventful. in the morning i went to pick up some speakers but aparrently, they were all sold out. so there went my entire 1st part of the day. had dance practice in the afternoon. was raining like crap when dwayne and i arrived. did a bit of dance and stuff till the rest came down. though there were some sort of dispute half way, it went out pretty smoothly. so moving on to the main event of the day. dance @ acs(br) gangshow 2006. the gangshow itself was pretty cool i guess. had many skits depicting, well to put it nicely, the other side of the barker boys. anyways, we practiced, we prayed, and we definately did have fun. though we did not win the best item, we still felt a sense of achivement. dont get me wrong here, this doesnt mean we didnt made any flaws. i, myself, sad to say made a couple of mistakes. first, was my kip-up. and next was my handglide. during the rehersals, i managed to do it smoothly, but during our performance, i guessed i fumbled quite some bit. i guess it was the anxiety then. owells, it was still fun though. =) i really find a sense of satisfaction to see how far we had gone since our 1st performance. recalling back, the dance at rgs was really bad. uncordinated, without nice moves or any original style. but now i can really see that all of us have improved by leaps and bounds over this period of time. that is something that im really gratefully for. yeaa. and hopefully by the time of our nxt performance (teachers' day i hope), there will be more improvement. so at the end, we took grp photos and took off in seperate directions.
i somehow find, you and i collide.

today i went to far east plaza after school with luke and vince. we left at abt 3.30 after waiting for dwayne who supposedly supposed to be first in line for his english oral exam. well it seems that it wasnt the case. after waiting for 45 min, during which we did a bit of bboying, he still did not turn up. so we took a cab and headed down to far east. ate at subway. my meal costed $6.15. 1 drink, tuna sandwhich, 2 cookies. yea. then after our meal, luke realised he got cheated of 3 dollars. so anyway he got the money back. eventually. we browsed many many many many shops at far east. met a few friends on the way too. 1st there was hsieh wen who was there to cut his hair. and chris foo. so we saw this weird shop with some frankinstein figure that keeps on dancing and talking. was quite amusing actually. turn out to be a shop that did custom made shirts, caps and other stuff. vince bought some green shoe laces for nat and this brown spraypaint shirt for himself. luke brought like 100 bucks but didnt spend anything. i got myself a brown jacket from 77th street. its quite cool actually. i intended to get a black one, but, to my dismay, i realised that if chris and i wore black jackets to perform, it will look as though they were the same. so yea anyway, i got my jacket and im quite happy about it =)

today was kind of a long day in my opinion. though we finished school at 2pm, there were subjects like physics that really made the day seems to drag on forever. after school i had a rather short session with dwayne, nat, vince, fredric and yi sheng who came later on. jasper couldnt join us cause he decided to go to botanic garderns to watch swans. like who watches swans for 2 hours anyway?. anyway, during the session my arm muscles, for some reason, ached rather badly when i attempted my handstands and air freezes, therefore i decided to work on my toprock. vince got this damn cool pair of new vans shoes. its was black and grey and its lime green laces matched it perfectly =). i wouldnt call this session wasted although i may not have learnt any new moves. i managed to brush up on my toprock and vince mangaged his forearm handstand quite well. anyways, we left about 4.30. then vince and i headed to the admin office to get our ICs. The receptionist joked with us saying that i have to pay a 10 dollar fine cause i lost the collection slip. so took the bus home. met stamford on the way.

it looks like im back here blogging, in an attempt to salvage my blog. much has happened over the past 2 months since my last post. for one, our sec3 batch have just taken over the scout meetings early this month. ndp is coming up and so is the national day pioneering competition. there's still much to be done for the construction of the tower and there really isnt much time left. today due to insufficient manpower, we could only start work at 4 whic is alrdy considered very late. thus we could only complete the selection and labeling of the verticles and the whipping of ropes. this leaves us about 85% of the tower left to build. and that is seriously no mean feat. my bboying has been better now. we won the best item performance for the scgs campfire thanks to song for helping us with the routine. finally after a long time, i can perform a L-kick =). yay. we've been sessioning quite some bit after school these days as theres a gangshow coming up in a few weeks time. well i guess thats about it.
