Happy 41th Birthday Singapore! I m getting addicted to Gong shi jia's song "My Island Home". the song is nice and gong shi jia got great vocals! was singing it in the showers ;p
Solaris won the NE cultural mapping thingy and cheering competition ytd! solaris is so on! woohoo~ the nj celebrations are not so bad, better than ny's one i think(opps). After that we had our long-waited class outing. We had to take bus to newton first before taking mrt to cityhall cuz the 171 buses are exploded with ny ppl! haha cant help it lah. Anyway i finally get to eat my first japanese buffet...the food is great but i got too full too early. End up forcing myself to eat more and trying not to waste food, but still theres alot of food left. Then, jing jing and me had a crazy idea to go kbox with the two of us alone...we actually went to queue up to ask for the pricing, but u know wad? all rooms are FULL...first time this happened to me. So God have decided for me that we shudnt be antisocial and stay as a cls, haha. nvm jing jing we shall go on other days with more ppl :)
Then, we watched click. I though its gonna juz be funny and tts it, but its not. the movie is GREAT. very deep, meaningful and touchful. I havent watch a great movie in a long time. It teaches us to cherish the moment. To live life as it really is, not to let life juz pass by. To treasure this current moment that we spend with our family and friends, when we are all good, well and healthy, before we lost something and then to regret and realise that how much we should have treasured it. It's very painful if we are able to rewind our life and see how we have lived life blindly and spent time as if we had a million years to live. Because we dont. We only have limited time spent on this earth and God knows what will happen tomorrow. When the main character rewind his life to the last time he saw his dad, he regretted deeply when he was watching himself living it. It was a self-centred life. He cried. At the final moment of his life, it was then he truly realised his mistakes and how precious his family is, he chased after his son in the rain. It was so sad. This reminds me of my sec 2 literary text "Our Town", the philosophy behind the book and the movie is very much the same. I am going to dig it out and read it later. So people, pls watch it!
After that we went to watch fireworks. IT'S SO CHIO!!!!!! The esplanade was so crowded, droplets of perspiration began to flow out of my sweat pores, but i dont regret going, despite being so tired and reached home so late...becuz the fireworks really rox! Heee.
After reaching home, i continue working on my ssaa score and finally FINISHED. yeah! cant wait to start distributing the score and get practicising.
