Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.

I gathered myself for yet another social activity after a long hiatus. Hahahahas! (: Finally met up with Tionglei (after 4 months?!) and Xiaofang for lunch @ Eighteen Chefs last Sunday. Awesome time spent because I felt very at ease with their company. Finally revert back to my talkative self, and we had a great time sharing our camps. Hmm, my psychology camp, Fang's engineering camp and errr Tionglei's field camp LOLOL! It felt great to be mocking him :P These are times where I am thankful that I am a girl and thus not a need to serve NS and defend our nation. LOLOL!

And just a mere 4 months of not seeing him, how can I forget his frequent sarcasm on me T.T Omg. He mocked me for being too tanned, for having super bad complexion, for having lopsided hair, amongst many more. Tsktsk. I suddenly felt a drastic drop in self-confidence now. Lmao. x.x

Rushed off with Fang afterwards to meet #xyz弦乐组 (CO section mates) for a k session @ Cineleisure. Learnt it the hard way after going there twice. Never ever go Cineleisure ktv anymore because they cheat $$$ one (by cutting short our singing time?!). Sighpie, and I paid $19 because yours truly forgot to bring her student pass. Zzz.

As predicted, they kept playing English songs (that I have never hear before, omg I am a country bumpkin I swear). Fang and me hurriedly added in some Chinese songs (Since I already paid $19, I want the mike LOLOL). Thankgawd the guys knew the Chinese songs and were able to singalong. Yay, family! :D

(3/4 strength)

Featuring the tall Xinze (oh why oh why did I stand beside him, that height difference), yours truly, Wanying, Fang, Chaomin, Shiwei and Junho. Sorry for being a burden for dragging you guys back for a photo after we parted ways LOLOL! :D

(Photoshopped those who went off earlier)

And not forgetting the two traitors, Kangwei and Shermaine, who went off without dinner.

Grateful for a catchup session (I love the HTHT session especially, Junho's BMT life is just so dramatic) before school starts. Promised myself to not join CO anymore in the future (after going through 6 years of torture), so I'm gonna keep these old friends close! :D Love y'all!

I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky.
And I'll make a wish, take a chance,
make a change and breakaway.

Simplicity of a goodbye.

What a hectic week! Most of my closer guy friends are enlisting this week, so I spent three consecutive days out for dinner to 'celebrate' their new chapter of their lives. Hahahahas! (: Which is kinda tiring if you ask me. :/ And I missed my TV shows because of them T.T Be honoured!

Day 1:

(My one and only poppyflower)

Yeahs. So it was us two again because Moehan & Weina were late as usual. Spent an hour plus camping in Xinwang Cafe catching up while waiting for the two slowpokes. We nearly died of hunger I swear.

(Reminiscing our childhood)

Hahahas! (: we are missing Yangfan again, but nonetheless, it was a splendid expensive dinner.

Day 2:

Finally, our first CO dinner after A's, or rather our first dinner after we stepped down from CO. Hahahahas! (: That was like a few months ago...  -.-

(Lousy iPhone quality)

Okay maybe not. iPhone picture quality is the best. I guess it is just Junho with his selfie stick and shaky hands and lousy phototaking skills. T.T

Hahahahas! (: So we finally decided on Hot Tomato for dinner (it was such a bother to settle on where to eat with such a big group T.T). We camped there for a few hours, and in the end we were cued by the waiters to leave because we were the last customers hogging the seats and they couldn't clear and pack up and go. Lmao! (:

(Last group shot)

Although it is not full strength here, I love the no-awkwardness between us and we can just speak our minds. (: We can talk about anything under the sun, and I suddenly miss the memories we shared together. I mean, they are the closest family to me in school after my clique. (Since my CCA took up most of my time and we always spend our after-school sessions together figuring out some ways to pon CCA -.-)

Day 3:

(Secondary school mates)

Yeahs, and three of us are in AJC. Hahahas! (: First time dinnering with this group, and to be honest, I was a little reluctant to go out with them initially. As in, I'm fine with Xiaofang & Tionglei, but me and Jocelyn had stopped talking 2 years ago. As y'know, I hate awkward situations omg.

But I'm glad I did in the end. The atmosphere was fine, but I just couldn't open my mouth that day. Hahahahas. I feel uncomfortable not talking (I tend to talk a lot), but I have no idea how to join in the conversation -.- So I guess I'm just an awkward turtle there omg. Yikes.

But anyways, to the guys, have fun in Tekong. (: Glad that you guys made it into the February batch because there are many holidays around the corner, like the upcoming CNY. Hahahahas!

And talking to them made me realised for the first time that, they are actually super nervous about NS. Tionglei even went to watch videos, read blogs and everything else to mentally prepare himself, whilst the three of us just laughed at him. Hahahahas! :DDD He is so freaking hilarious omg.

Because if I let you in,

You'll break a part of me

from the inside.

'Cause it is just too precious

for me to have it.

You are my source of sunshine.

Since poppyflower is complaining that I didn't update my blog...

My official AJCO Farewell Ceremony

28 May 2014

(We tried to squeeze everyone in. We tried.)

Hahahas! I'm not sure who is missing in the picture, but I doubt is full strength. I cannot see Jiyao though (I think he was already busy eating) and Junho accidentally cut out Mingda x.x

(Front)

(Back)

Hahahas, I am proud to have written 19 cards for my dearest CO mates and juniors! (: Took me ten days and ten nights to write them. -exaggerating- Hahahas, 40 mini polaroid cards from TYPO that costs approximately $12. The pictures are not that nice, and I'd preferred Kaiayun's, but at least these are the childhood favourites, Mickey and Minnie! <3 Hahahas, anyways check out my tiny minute handwriting. LOL!

(With my Section Leader Wanying)

Ahhh, the photo turned out to be dark, and I'm lazy to go edit the brightness and constrast, so ums yeahs. Deal with it. LOL! (: First photo dedicated to my favourite Wanying! First friend made in AJCO, who also happens to live just a few blocks away from me. Hahahas! (: You sure are committed to CO because you are NEVER late. LOL! I love you to the moon and back again! <3

(With the new Section Leader Mingda)

Hahahas! (: My retarded junior, who took out piggy bank to return me money. LOL, I cannot never get enough of your retardedness and epic faces in all our CO pictures. Hahahas! (: Thanks for everything, and jiayous! I'm sure you will excel as a section leader. Work hard, and I know you can make it for H3 maths! LOL!~

The rest below are not in order. LOLOL! :D

(Junho the 鸟先生)

Hahahas, yes. I cropped this picture because I wanted to hide the fact that I'm standing on the stairs. LOL! (: But we look super awkward here. LOLOL! Gah, stop playing and start studying, you kukushit! 

(Cards made by Junho)

And check out his second batch of cards. Psh, I'm in the first batch, so my cards not as nice. Gah. Idiotic much. Hahahas! (: Yes, I'm jealous. :/

(With Muntuen)

Hahahas, the picture not I edit derhs! (: Yet, I still look so effortlessly pretty. LOL, joking! But cheers to MunTuen, one of my favourite junior in the world!

(With Munen)

Hahahas, Munen, yet another favourite junior. LOL! :D I have fun with you guys, <3

(With the Twins)

Hahahas, I'm in the center of attraction yo! (: Limelight!

Anyways, I'm already the center of attraction in my whole section because I'm like the only one in our whole section to wear PE, besides Panda (Jiyao).

(With my 5.5years of CO mate, Xiaofang!)

With Chaomin

I looked like a monster here. Or should I say, pedophile? :3 LOLOL!

With Kanggggwei.

I hate this camera angle. I really do.

(My 接班人Xue Er)

(Super retarded Kiyee)

(Shermaineee)

Hahahas, somebody wrote in her card that she looked glamorous and calm and composed when playing the erhu, whilst Junho always has a panicky look in his eyes and never fails to sweat like a pig while he tried to follow up. Something along this line. LOLOL! (: Funny max please! 

(Shiwei)

He slided down so I appeared taller. LOLOL! (: You took great care of me during all CO practices, especially during dazus. I thank you for that, but nothing else. :3

(I seriously cannot tank Junho)

(Quiet XueZhen)

(With UuEn)

(YunXuan)

Hahahas, (: Initially thought that she is weird, now still thinks that she is weird. But nonetheless, I'm glad to have you as a friend.

(President Xinze)

Arghs, super tall sia him although I'm actually standing on the stairs and he is not. LOLOL!! (: Be honoured! I saved the best for the last. Hehes!

(My goldfish junior YunXuan)

My secondary school cum JC junior who is not in the same section as me. Hahahas! (: Noise pollution sia.

(Mr Shy Guy, Hanwei)

Hahahas, I still remembered how Shawn described you. The awkward looking guy, who dares not talk to girls. LOLOL!! (: Can't blame him for coming from a guys school. Hahahas!

(Group Photo 1)

(Group Photo 2)

(Woooooo!~)

Check out my board, handmade with love by the juniors. LOL! (: Many pictures, especially unglams (I will remember you for this, Kiyee!) on my board. Hahahas! I love you guys! <3

(A random shot)

Last but not the least, throwback to my AJCO Concert!

(Concert with my conductor cum teacher)

LOL, my words getting shorter and shorter, I realised. I'm getting lazier x.x LOLOL!! :D Have a great day ahead!

So tonight is ours, tomorrow isn't. We're stuck in between.

I understand there's no hard feelings, even though I have to leave.

But give me just one night where the world will go missing,

when we're together with no distance from you and me.

My thoughts will echo your name till I see you again.

Continued...

(Le lovely clique)

P.S. I find this photo very symmetrical, LOLOL!
Hahahas, I just totally insulted myself :3

Hahas, thanks le clique for coming down to support me! :D Hahahas, loveyou guys to bits. Thanks for the lovely flowers (I'm not going to name any flowers again, I will dig a hole to hide my head if I named it wrongly), LOLOL!! :D I appreciate you guys, and I know babypoop did something as ridiculous as to wave her hands madly in the air during my performance so as to attract my attention but to no avail. Hahahas, embarrassing little girl :P Thanks for babypoop's encouragement messages to keep me going throughout this tough period (tiring, I mean). YAY! You are officially loved by me!

(My girlies :D)

(More pictures with le clique!)

Hahahas, just to let you see more of my chio face, LOL! :D Check me out in my CO costume (it so doesn't suit me), hahahas! :3

(Davier and Vivian)

Hahahas, next up. Thanks le handsome junior Davier and pretty bestie Vivian! :D Hahahahas, Davier ought to come support me since I went for his NYCO concert. LOL! Thanks for the sweet-smelling roses, smell damn good. Hahahas! You guys damn retarded, you all actually fell asleep in the middle of my performance when you guys are 'suppose' to know how to appreciate Chinese music since you all are from Chinese Orchestra for at least 4 years! Super long sentence, ohwell. (: To be honest, I fell asleep while practicing for the concert before. LOL! Oops!

(Stupid Munpin)

Kudos to my vice-president, Sek Mun Pin, for managing CO well. Hahahas, my Vice-President for years (he is my VP in Secondary school tooos). Annoying little brat, you are a burden. :P Hehehes!

(My dearest employeeee, Victoria)

Hellooos Victoria! :D Long time no see, heh. I lost the pink monster that you gave me, :( Please forgive me! Hope you enjoy the AJCO production. I'm sorry that I couldn't made it for yours, I was quite busy that week. Sorry employee, do know that Boss still loves you a lot! <3

(My eccentric friend, Ivan)

My Secondary 2 table mate, (: How are you? I'm sorry for the frequent late replies, but I'm really thankful for you not dropping me as a friend. Thanks table mate, I hope you are doing well in NJ with your burden H3 maths. You are a philosopher, I swear. You never fail to give me advices, and I sure miss your teasings. Hahahas, to be honest, I was freaking shocked when you told me you joined Chinese Orchestra as a CCA in JC. Thanks for your lovely rabbit plushie (my belated birthday present), I love it tons! Cheers to more years of friendship! :D

I thoroughly enjoyed myself throughout this whole period. Okayys, I'm lying, I dread the practices and the scoldings by my conductor who is also Huqin's teacher. Hahahas, thanks AJCO for giving me such a wonderful experience. P.S. This is the first time that I'm performing in Singapore Conference Hall (I only went there twice for SYFs).

From strangers to close friends. I will miss my CO mates a lot. <3

There I was again tonight,

Forcing laughters, faking smiles.

At the same old, tired and lonely place.

But the walls of insincerity, shifting eyes and vacancy,

All vanished when I see your face.

Friends are the bacon bits in the salad bowl of life.

(Super blur photo of xyz girls)

"Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten."

Hahahas, my AJCO concert 圆满结束 on the May18, Sunday. (: I have been having mixed feelings about it. I felt relieved to get rid of this burden CCA (no more late nights home, no more late dinners, no more trying to keep myself awake late at night to complete my homework that are due the next day). Yet at the same time, I felt the feelings of 舍不得 to leave my CO mates. >.<

Especially during the period of intensive trainings (approximately 4 to 5 days a week) during the 2013 SYF period and 2014 concert period, I think I spent time with my CO mates so much more as compared to my own family. Hahahahas, :D You guys are like a second family to me. Aww, do feel honoured if you are reading this. Hahahas! ^^

I am thankful for my fellow CO mates, who took great care of me during my 2 years in AJCO. And not to forget both my wonderful seniors and awesome juniors, who make life more interesting for me during those dreadful practices. ROFL! :D I love you guys truckloads! <3

(Dinner before the actual concert day)

Hahahas, I had a great dinner and great accompany on the last day of rehearsal. (: It was a little difficult to find seats for 14 in any restaurants or fastfood outlets, and we went wandering all over Northpoint Shopping Centre for what seemed like eternity. Finally settled for Pastamania at approximately 9pm. Hungry die me. Hahahas! (:

Full of crap and nonsense on the dinner table, as we shared stories and jokes. Junho was an idiot, seriously. LOL! :D

(Junho and moi)

Hahahas, since we are on the topic of Junho, here is a photo of us after the AJCO concert. LOL, thanks for being a stupid joker who always come up with retarded stories, but your epic face is enough to create laughters in practices all the time. I will miss you quite a bit, hahahas (: I mean, we sit beside each other during dazus and all the late MRT trips home. Thankyou for being such an annoying but awesome friend.

(Muntuen and meee)

Hahahas, my beloved retarded junior with a glimpse of idiocracy never fails to crack me up. (: Only became closer to you and your twin sister (Munen) like a few weeks ago, but I'm thankful for your presence in my life. P.S. I put your picture first because I think I looked the nicest here. Hahahahas! :P But hey, be honoured okayys!

(Me and Munen)

Hahahas, I had a hard time trying to differeniate between Munen and Muntuen, but yeahs. I managed to discover a trick to differeniate them, only recently. But seriously, I think they look super alike the first time I met them. Hahahas, anyways to the both of you, don't be disheartened for not getting into the AJCO exco (hahahas, 我是过来人). I'm sure you will do fine in CO, jiayous! I will miss you guys! :(

(Kiyee, Chaomin, Kangwei and beautiful me)

Hahahas, the picture a bit dark arhs. && since when Kangwei became so tall?! LOL, thanks for being constant bitches, I love you guys to bits. Although I was a little upset with Kiyee that past few weeks, but still, I guess I will miss you because after all, you are the first junior that became close to us. Hahahas, and the only junior who have somehow became one 'clique' with the J2s. LOL! :D

Thanks Chaomin and Kangwei, I miss your stupid jokes and the gossip sessions that we share. Hahahas! :D Thanks Chaomin for lending me your makeup, hahas. I think Chaomin, Kiyee and I really suck at putting make-up. We were stuck in the toilet for hours before rehearsal on the actual day of concert. T.T LOLOL!

(Xue Er and me)

Hahahas, this girl is good. Hahahas, (: My junior who sat beside me for the whole of dazu sessions this year (before they decided to change me to beside Shiwei a week before the concert). A diligent girl, I know she really practice erhu hard at home. (I don't, LOL!). Hahahas, if I can, I will support her to be the Section Leader, which she decline because of the stress implications T.T I will miss the times where we 相依为命, hahas. Trying our best to play the songs when our star players, Shiwei and Mingda, are not around during the practices.

(Eileen and me)

I'm not very close to her, and I even felt that she was super cold to people at a point in time. But during these few weeks, I think she really opened up a lot. Hahahas, (: Still not close to her, but I think she quite pretty. Okayys, no link, but yeahs. (:

(Back to Kiyee)

Hahahas, I will miss you okayys. Because you are shorter than me when I'm donning my sports shoes. Hahahas! :D Idiot 1.53m, must jiayous in CO okayys! Hehes, I will miss the constant bullying that we suffered by Junho and the rest of our CO mates. Hahahas! ^^

(Muntuen, Xuezhen and me)

Hahahas, I think I looked pretty here also. LOL, bimbo much. Anyways, jiayous Xuezhen! :D Don't feel dejected as you are the only one who is new to the instrument, but continue to strive hard. I'm sure you can surpass Jiyao hahahas! :D Sorry, but I'm not a fan of Jiyao, who always ran off in the middle of practice to sleep? :/ I don't know. He always vanished into thin air. LOL!

(President)

And not to forget, thank you CO president, Xinze, for managing AJCO well. I wouldn't say that AJCO is efficient in doing the tasks assigned, but still, I know it is pure hard work to manage such a big group of people. I think we have around 80 people? I guess. Hahahas, kudos to my handsome president! NOT, although many people think that he is nice-looking (I mean, look at the amount of confessions he get on AJC confessions)... which I don't think so. :P

(Junho and Xinze)

How gay can you guys get? LOL! :D Missing my gay friends already. Hahahas! && look at Shiwei's reluctant face below. ROFL.

(Xinze with Shiwei)

(My beloved seniors, Yushan and Kiayuen)

Hahahas, my annoying section leader of 2013 Yushan and a noisy senior Kiayuen, both came back to help out for the concert as performers. Hahahas, I miss my seniors a lot. LOL! :D Especially Jermaine, Xuanpo, Clarissa, Jiaqi and others. Hahahas! (: Loveyou guys!

I will post more pictures later, because I need to get going already. Stupid college day, made me travel all the way to school to clap hands for the J3 awardees? Wts. Waste my time. :/ Four hours, I can do a lot in four hours. Arghs. Not counting my travelling time, of approximately 2hours.

Legend: xyz means xianyuezu (comprising all the erhu, zhonghu and gaohu) :D

Lately, I've been losing sleep,

Dreaming about the things that we could be.

But baby, I've been praying hard,

Said, no more counting dollars,

We'll be counting stars instead.
