The rehearsal with
Budak was really fun (: They must be one of the most
funky, most musical a cappella group around! Their medley of abba songs was really
comical, and
very harmonious. And then when the choir sang with them, it was
wow. They brought their technical equipment and all that too! Looked totally
professional. I prefer "Been Around" actually, and joe's solo parts are so cool. He has just the
right amount of laidback attitude and his voice is
so suited for the words. I
truly cannot wait for the concert (:
Yesterday was netball carn too! Despite being stepped on and kicked on my
loosed-nailed toe, it was
really fun. I was
gs for most games, and it was
fantastic working with
Huannie!! After a few games, we sort of had a system working. Center(pet) to Huannie, then she'll pass it to florence as a pivot point :D then to me who will be waving my arms like a maniac because I am restricted to 1/3 of the court. Then huannie will run like
crazy near to the goal, and then she'll
shoot!! I recall a
super zai-ed shot when she stood quite a distance from the net and the ball just
sailed in. (: And if they don't, I'll be in charge of catching the
rebounds, which is really fun (: We usually manage to catch each other's rebounds anyway. :x I shot a few, missed a few, and got kicked some, but overall it was
fun playing with the 310 team! I think it's great that we won a few matches! (: We'll all go
screaming and hugging each other, because we didn't have much practice, but we pulled it off! And I screamed like
crazy when vanessa shot
3 shots during a match!
Great job 310!
Music really brings people together. I remember the song This Love was playing when it was 310's turn to play against another class on court 1, then I was singing the song (it was playing really loud) with the 'opponent'! It kind of brought us together I guess, like singing the same song while we played against each other. For a moment it was as if we were playing
together rather than
against each other, and I
kind of forgot she would be trying to intercept my netballs later on. (:
Thanks a
gazillion to the people who cheered me on, like
xiao yu and
ann! It was really encouraging, because I was
seriously intimidated by a defender who was probably 10 cm taller than me and had arms
twice the height and length of mine. :x And then after a match,
dee and
chay would always come over to give me a hug! (: And
steph,
yixuan and
astee conforting me whenever I missed a shot.. And
soomeh,
sooneh, and
tanneh! Thanks so much you guys. (:
And then there was the dedications! I know
Rachie and
Huannie dedicated a song to me and pet! Like I said before,
slackville is one of the best things that has happened to me in school.
Slackvillians- you guys rule. (: Me and Clara dedicated a song to 310 too, and it was playing while a match was on! Talk about perfect timing.
For dinner I had one of the nicest meals ever. My relatives came over, and we baked brownies with california walnuts! (: (: And then there was baked chicken and jell-o! And eggy long beans and prawn tomato soup and cheese broccoli. (: (: I love my relatives.
I love things that last far longer than forever.
"Are we going to be friends forever?" Asked Piglet.
"Even longer..." Pooh answered.
