flawed work of art.

wednesday
actually was about to publish my post the first time around, but the electricity kinda tripped on me. Waaa! it's ok.. I'll try & recall what I was talking about..
today was another paper-free day for me. =) we spent the morning very well though. managed to really get started on the decos. so, the bunch of us 5th formers were just busy cutting cloth, folding said cloth and burning the fraying edges. we were sortta tempering with fate as we lit the candles on the age old stage.. kysh, being the tae kwan do pro, performed this really neat trick with the candle. she punched the flame out. no, not literally. it just sortta poofed off as she punched. super cool! we were all prancing around the stage like crazy maniacs. after that, we didn't stop urging her to 'punch' the flame out. reluctantly, she punched and the flame flickered violently and the next consecutive punches also failed to blow out the light, but it was awesome to see the flame dancing as she punched. after being chased down the stage to make way for the choir, we continued with our preparations for the 80th anniversary concert this saturday. in came my class teacher carrying what looked like a clothes bag. little did I know it was jamie a.k.a yvonne's costume as christine from the phantom of the opera! yes, the school choir will be performing a series of musicals on that day. how very exciting!! cass & I went to check on yvonne putting on teacher's 15-year-old gown. the teacher's name is censored. just in case. =) she was 45 kilos 15 years ago, but the dress was still pretty intact. can't believe she kept her wedding gown! yvonne was having a little trouble fitting into the dress, even with her kid sis, sarah helping her. yvonne's face couldn't be redder. can you imagine having two teachers watching you change into another teacher's wedding gown? I can't. anyway, I zipped the gown up as sarah told her sis to breathe in and tada! it worked! the gown looked stunning on her. she looked like a pretty princess, what with the puffed sleeves and the little train following behind. it looked like something out of a fairytale. if only yvonne would stop waddling so uncomfortably like that.. sheesh. then, it was wei yi's costume cass & I tackled next. thanks to us, a desperate looking housewife with a grey apron turned into marie from the sound of music! even teacher was impressed! guess cass & I really have a knack for these kinda things. we should take up fashion!!! lol. wei yi's dress oozed with much gothism, (is that even a word?) both cass & I fell head over heels in love with it. *drool* all in all, no one described the school at that present moment better than yiswaree. it looked like a celebratory fair. (scarborough fair, perhaps? heehee) who would imagine that this school was actually in the midst of exams?
tuesday
oh my gosh. add maths!! 'don't panic, stay calm.. I can do this..' were the only words buzzing around my head the whole morning. actually, paper one wasn't too bad. I could've done better. sigh. paper 2 killed me. the 2 & a half hours felt like uhm.. 2 & a half minutes? what was worse was that in between thinking of solving the !@^%$%!@ problems, I had fits of coughs! that really broke my train of thought a couple of times. during paper one, we were all very much irritated by the dikir barat people. oh, just in case you didn't know, dikir barat's a malay traditional performance. think group rap. only with a traditional gong as a beat. lol. it was fannoying. yes, I did put the f there on purpose. during paper 2, it was the choir's turn... only my twin was very much affected by this. when the choir was singing the phantom of the opera, she burst out laughing like a can of beans! we were all kinda amused although the paper was NOT AT ALL amusing. I could cry!! I hate add maths. meh!
the rest of the day was spent settling the accounts for the 80th anniversary tees.. was either too drained out or too sick to actually walk straight or do anything else, for that matter. the bed looks extra comfortable right now.... hmm...
oh wait, before I forget...
IT'S OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hehe. no more late-night mugging! at least for now..

You'll never change what's been and gone
May your smile shine on
Don't be scared
Your destiny may keep you warm
Cos' all of the stars are fading away
Just try not to worry
You'll see them some day
Take what you need and be on your way
And stop crying your heart out
Oasis > Stop Crying Your Heart Out
p/s: sorry for the lousy entry today. I'm just too *yawn* sleepy....
