Back to Malaysia~~
Today is Friday and it is time for me to go back to my 'home sweet home', Batu Pahat, which is in the Johor state of Malaysia. The morning gave me a weird and unpleasant feeling because of the presentation we presented in our Communication Toolkit module (ComT) in school. Due to this formal oral presentation assessment, we were told to dress in formal attire. Formal long sleeve shirt, slacks and leather shoes....... I did have the shirt, slacks or even a tie with me in singapore, but what was missing? The leather SHOES!! I left my leather shoes in Malaysia. Oh goodness, i wore shirt, slacks and tie but with sport shoes, which made me look weird as if i am a lao ah pek(uncle). But since i have no choice, i accepted it. When i was in school, Charissa, who is my classmate, kind of surprised when she saw me in that 'weird' combination suit. Haha~~ It was really embarrassing. I quickly got it changed into jeans and t-shirt after the presentation. That suits me better.
We had a very short interval after the ComT tutorial before we moved on to the Individual And The Community (IAC) due to the overrun of time limit during the presentation session. Can anyone imagine how will it be like when you only have 15 minutes of break and all the canteens and food courts are crowded with people? That was what we experienced. In the end, we forced ourselves to stuff in sandwiches......... I felt so bad and guilty as i failed my teammates again. They decided to have a discussion on our projects after the IAC session. However, i cannot join them as i have to rush back to Malaysia. I really hope that they will not take it to heart and i apologise to you all (Wei Tai, Cliff, Qi Xian and Melody) in here. Sorry yah.....
I had been planning on what to do this friday (should be yesterday) since a few days ago. I have planed to do some recordings of songs with my friend who is a keyboardist in Malaysia. The song is meant for someone who is very special and important to me. Despite that special person, i promised someone else to record that song for them too. However, all my plans and meetings had been ruined in the end by multiparties.....Haha~~ firstly, i received sms from my ex-classmates for a gathering at a cafe. I really hoped that i can turn up but i cannot. Secondly, i received a call from my vocal teacher from Muar asking me to follow him to Muar as he would be coming to Batu Pahat for some personal affairs. I rejected too because of the plans i planed earlier. Thirdly, my dad asked me to follow him to a newly opened pub cum bistro run by a friend of his to help them testing their sound system. I went there reluctantly but since it is from my dad, i respect him and followed. The place was awful, without microphone and guitar wires. How they expected me to test it?? It was ruined. Lastly, when i got back to home and called my friend for the recording session, guess what he asked and told me? "I have not practice leh, you trust me?". I was so shocked but then nothing much could be done as i request help from him and i should respect his decision. So, that is how my friday nite was ruined. Guess that i hav to postpone my recording session furthermore. Haiz...... How discouraging la. Hope that i can fork out my time as soon as possible for the song. I will also post up the url link of the song in my blog later and i hope to receive comments from the readers on it. Haha~~
I think that is roughly all for my entry today. I have to sleep earlier as i need to rush up to Muar tomorrow and spend my whole day there with my Popteen (a singing group formed by a few of my friends and i) mates for practices and meetings. Haiz.....Why is it that i still need to work so much when i come back to Malaysia. Isn't it for break and relaxation? I am so stressed~~
Tata all~~
