Nanyang Polytechnic Open House

Upon receiving words that Nanyang Polytechnic Guitar Club (NYPGC) would only be performing on friday and saturday, i have got to change the performances layout as it would overun if i shift thursday's performances to friday and saturday, so there have to be some sacrifices. When i was notified by Sean, batch 10 president to handle the layout of the open house, i thought of giving everyone a chance to perform, and so planned to have most people in NYPGC to participate, it was all done up, and we're just waiting for the occassion. But the world's full of surprises, thus i decided to abandon the junior ensemble, junxin's solo and my solo performances. Here, i would like to apologize to all juniors (Batch 12) and Jun Xin for cancelling their performances. Sorry.

Nanyang Polytechnic Guitar Club

We've been the new committee for just 1 week, and 1 week was enough for me to be filled with optimism about our batch 11's ability to improve guitar club. Everyone knows what they are supposed to do, alot of people have suggestions on how to improve the guitar club, although some have their minds set on certain ideas which may be alittle extreme, all they want is a better NYPGC, and that is what we all desire. True enough, it may also another san feng zhong ri du experience from people, but it is certainly better to have these than to have none. Just 1 week, but i feel great about it.

Phases of Life

When i was younger, i lived in Ang Mo Kio Ave 10, there was a playground beside my void deck leading to a park, a small little garden with shelters on the other side where i 1st learned cycling on two wheels when i was Primary 2. So i will always have fond memories there. It only makes it better that my godmother stays there (2 blocks away), and that we always go to her house after school during weekdays as she look after us. We made their family fed up sometimes becoz of frequent quarrels but it just brings everyone closer. Kindergarden - i used to be scared being at home alone, whenever my godmother went out to do something, say buy some food, i'll creep into my ah pek's room to sleep near him on the bed. Lower Primary - i sat on my report book, ranked 33/40 in class to avoid letting my godmother see, she told me that if i do that, i will not be able to study well! And so i let her see... i learned, for the 1st time in my life, vulgarities from peers in school, the F word somehow made me bonkers on the day i learned, utterly using it every 10mins for whatever reasons unknown. Upper Primary - i play table tennis using the walls, practicing and catching the ball till i sweat like mad even though i bathed, and guess what, i don think i bathed again after that... I cooked with my godmother, helping her with dishes and stuff, so i'm a good cook after all :x Secondary - I became braver and stayed home alone, got addicted to a MMORPG - darkages that sometimes felt reluctant to leave the computer. It leads to me going to my godmother's house lesser and lesser as the days gone by.

The last time i visited my godmother was during the september semester holidays which i wrote an article on. Now? January. I thought of going during the two weeks break, but i didnt. How i wish our houses are closer, how i wish to visit her everyday, even to say hi, or to help her cook again even though she rejected me the last time around. How i wish i can repay her love and care for me.

My parents told me they saw her in Kovan during the weekends, she asked about me, whether i am busy. I would love to say yes, because i didnt visit her regularly enough for my own liking. Yet, although i do have a tight schedule with dismissals at least after 5, i could have visited her at times as long as i planned to, but i didnt, i prefered to have fun out with friends, to relax at home, to practice my guitar or do other things. Why? I want to repay their love, i want them to know they'r still in my heart, i want relish the days when i was young with them. Somehow, i am writting this with a heavy heart, as i know, i know that i could have done better for them, i know that i could have visited them more regularly, i know that as much as i wished that i could've planned these properly, i could not redo it.

But i can start now, i would love to start now, at least before i am enrolled into NS which will take even much more of my time.
