:: SKYSCRAPER ::

Good evening peeps! Have been waiting for this day to update my blog. I can't believe I actually survived. I thought I would have died in this week. I was super busy I almost lost breath. Was busy with my class tests, open day guitar performance and talentime band practices, and all the up coming exams which are piano practical and theory exams. Phew... Such a splendid and eventful week! Oh and, Kuen Cheng's open day will be on the 7th of August. Feel free to come ;) ! It's a Sunday. Shocking enough, attendance is obligatory. BUT, we have holiday on Monday! I feel awesome.

So, I went to Midvalley & The Gardens with Yi Teng, Yi Ling, Shu Yi, Hao Ying, Zhi Wen, Bing Sheng and Seth on last Sunday. Early in the morning at 9 sharp, I woke up and dressed up, got ready for my piano trial exam in the music academy. Didn't practise much because I've totally forgotten about it the day before. Had porridge for breakfast and practised my exam pieces for a while. Didn't know I would feel that nervous, I felt like butterflies were flying rapidly in my stomach. Reached the academy at around 10 and waited in the waiting room. I was practising scales on my book. Then, when the student before my turn came out, I walked in and greeted my teacher 'Good morning, madam'. Yes, it was awkward, calling my teacher a madam haha. I started off with my scales, then pieces, sight-reading, at last, aural. I made a slight slip in my baroque exam piece. I think I've started the piece in a wrong tempo as my fingers were uncontrollably flying across the keys in the middle where I didn't have any rests to stop at. Aural was horrible. I forgot all the chords and cadences I memorised early in the morning. Urgh, I knew they just couldn't get into my mind. To my astonishment, I passed the trial with 117. Ahh, 3 more marks to merit! 2 more classes of piano left. I don't wanna continue for diplomas, neither do I wanna stop. I'm in a terrible dilemma...

After the trial, my mum fetched me to the bus stop in front of IOI mall. Yi Teng and I took the bus together to Midvalley. She accidentally wore her slippers 'cos she was hastily running out from her house. Typical 'Cassandra' (yeeee, she's so gonna smack me when she sees this :D). We collected our tickets in The Gardens signature GSC. We wanted to book tickets for Midvalley but then the stupid website just couldn't function properly it kept showing us the invalid sign. Eventually, when I used my dad's credit card to book for The Gardens, it worked. A premier ticket cost us 24 bucks. Which is twice of the usual price, dang. Later, we met up with Zhi Wen and Seth in MPH. God blessed us, we bumped into Teik Yi! Her mum allowed her to come with us as I booked 2 extra movie tickets. After that, Yi Ling and Shu Yi reached.

My stomach was growling, so we went to Paddington House of Pancakes for lunch. I ordered Omelette-wrapped salad. It wasn't that bad but the portion was too big for me. Seth and Zhi Wen ordered two plates of pancakes each. 'OMG you ordered another plate?' 'Why not? It's GOOOOOOOD' haha. Yi Teng and I sneaked to Lavender bakery and bought Seth a Mango Cheese cake for his birthday. FYI, his birthday is on the 1st of August. Our outing was initially set on the 31st of July which we could celebrate his birthday together. Well, since we have thought about celebrating his birthday, celebrating his birthday way earlier wasn't that bad too :) . He went so speechless when the waiter served us the cake.

After our lunch, we met up with Bing Sheng who got kind of lost in the centre court, lol. We headed to the cinema and got ready for HARRY POTTER & THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART 2! I was already looking forward to watching the very last part since I watched the 1st part in Australia with my sister. I would have to scream out loud that HARRY POTTER SERIES IS THE BEST SERIES EVER AND I'M LOVIN' IT! I can vividly remember the 1st time I watched Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone when I was merely 5. 10 years is definitely a long route. Thinking about how Harry, Ron and Hermione knew each other, thinking about how their friendship became better than best, thinking about how they almost died upon Voldemort's spells, I couldn't believe the ending where they waved their hands to their children at the station, with wrinkled visage, will never be continued. I used to be always looking forward to the next part... It all ended and I distinctly remember the day it all began. I'm feeling a little nostalgic right now, sobs. Harry Potter, is not just a name, it's more than that, more than what you can ever imagine. JK Rowling is goddess, prodigy. Oh and, this might sound like I have a bias against these 2 series, but most of US agree with this statement: NEVER compare Harry Potter series with Twilight saga. NEVERRRR! End :) .

After the movie, the family reached. We had dinner at Kita no Zen. Shopped in Isetan and finally, home. Haven't done any of my homeworks, but I was too exhausted to even think, so I slept after bath. It sure was a fun day. Omg, I realize I've been typing on and on it just wouldn't end. Seriously, I have to end now, haha. Yoga class later. Have to study French, Italian and German terms now. I don't wanna fail my theory trial exam :( . Bless me?

When you see my boy

Just tell him I miss his smile

Tell him I'm counting the minutes

Gonna see him in a little while
