i'm back!!
the trip was so much fun
except for some minor stuff

[1st day]
reached school at 6
we were supposed to leave school at about 6+
but the chaichee people reached our school at almost 8
made us wait so long for them
let's not get into details.
it's simply too much.
and so, as the journey goes on,
our bus broke down.
and we waited for almost 2 hours for the next bus to pass by
the others in the other bus reached there arnd 3/4
us? at dinner time
then there was the opening ceremony.
it was super funny!!
the girls in the band who performed all have short hair,
apparently, all the girls in the malaysian bands have short hair.
one looked like shirin!!
we were like so frightened
cos we thought it was really her.
watched the grudge together in laurel and my room(we shared the same room)
in the end, scary parts- SCREAM
not scary parts also scream. -.-"
oh, btw, it's the american version of juon.
[2nd day]
the acoustic check day.
we played really horribly that day.
breakfast?
sausages, ham (4 colours),fried egg, horrible juice, and lotus paste buns
and some others
IT'S THE SAME EVERYDAY!!
$399 for that?!
had the breathing technique talk too.
MR NONAMI ROCKS! the tsunami.. HAHA.
[3rd day]
competition day.
our scores were 397/500 for the set piece, and 412/500 (??) for the choice piece.
it was really torturous to sit there for 3 hours to listen to bands after bands playing non-stop
poor judges..
oh well, we got a silver.
that was the worse day ever/
clarinet section got the most scoldings.
well, we were late for almost everything
-waking up
-breakfast
-morning singsparation
-and MANY others.

[4th day]
the best day ever!!
we went to both the indoor and outdoor theme parks.
i really made a fool of myself.
some people were really rude.
cut our queues, pushed their way through and stuff.
waited in the rain for so long just to sit on the cyclone
in the end, we waited for nothing.
sat the indoor roller coaster so many times for the photos.
closing ceremony
points for obtaining a gold award-85 and above.
silver- 80-84.99
bronze- dunno how much to 74.99
and so, after much comtemplating,
the adjudicators and judges decided that...
the bands who scored 85 and above and bands with gold with distinction.
those who scored 80-84.99 are gold bands!!
OMG!!
we couldn't believe it.
all of us were cheering so loudly.
and some even screamed.
fairli, yolanda and i went back to their room (they share the same room)
cos we were all not feeling well.
it's super fun with them.
SHHH..
it's a secret.
fairli!! i'm so sorry! hope you didn't get pimples after the AHEM.
yupp.
wached tv with them
the shows in malaysia are SUPER boring.
they can show one movie for 1 whole day.
like ms congeniliaty 2.
i rmbed watching it like the day before at 5.55am.
all thanks to that stupid phone alarm.
then when i turned on the tv on the afternoon,
there it was, the same show on that channel.
at night, it was the same show on that channel!!
went back to my room wih laurel when the rest arrived back from the grand ballroom.
laurel was telling me that she was so excited when she saw this packet of sweets with the brand CHANEL on the packaging.
she bought so many of them.
then when she opened look at them again,
it was CHALAL.
HAHAHAHA.!!
packed our lugagges and we finally went back to sleep at 1 am.
[5th day]
woke up at 6.32am
we thought that breakfast was at 7.
(they normally give us an hour to get up and change)
rushed to the restaurant only to see the same old food.
drank cold water.
i gotta admit, laurel's the best.
everyone's rushing and she still can eat cereal with milk.
and so, we rushed back to the lobby at the 19 floor
to meet everyone.
went to the ground floor to wait for our buses.
WHY DOES J2 ALWAYS GET THE BUS THAT ARRIVES SO MUCH SLOWER, TRAVELS SO MUCH SLOWER AND EVEN BROKE DOWN ONCE?!
when we finally reached sg,
fairli msg me and asked where we were.
we were still at ecp
when the J1 people had already reched home and eaten their meals.
had a free ride home from sir.
the end.

special thanks to
-angeline
-fairli
-laurel
-liyun
-lydia
-and yolanda.
i really miss the times we spent together,
and the times we laughed that caused my voice to change.
LOVE YOU GUYS!

and to samantha, sarah, weilin and eve,
thanks for making the bus ride to and fro so fun.
