Today was not quite a typical Saturday, but it felt almost perfect to me...
Adele wasn't my alarm clock today.She told me happily, "I wasn't your alarm clock today!" She was my usual Saturday Alarm Clock cause she comes to my place for piano lessons by my sis every Saturday morning while I'm still in bed.. She'll usually crepts up to my room and start covering me in pillows and soft toys on my bed or just sits on my bed starting to cough (like last week) OR she'll just jumps on my bed like it's a trampoline...
YYV came to stay overnight at my place last night just after we finished our tuition because we are taking part in a cooking competition with me only knowing how to cook instant noodles, fry eggs and some other crazy self-invented recipes... So, she came over to just cook something together... It was quite unplanned since we didn't have the slightest idea of what to cook... So, we just cooked something really strange... Well, the pumpkin soup was fine, because it wasn't really cooked by us. We just did the cutting up of veggies... Haha! We fried some chips and I put TOO MUCH salt... We made Tomato Fish (is it what it's called?) and only the sause tasted nice. The fish was... Uh... Sort of a disaster... And we made omelette with TOO MUCH mashed potatoes... =_= We ended up finishing up the mess we cooked...
The happiest thing for me is that there's no Violin class today! Yippee! Hehe.. It's not like I hate violin lessons but we were told to practise a crazily up tempo-ed, Old Joe Clark. It was alsmost impossible to memorize and even impossible for us to play it at that speed! The song was only full of semiquavers going up and down with sharps and flats all over the score! @_@
It was raining for 2 days now... I love to hear the sound of the raindrops falling on the window pane in my room.. Lying in bed, listening to the pitter-patter of it... It sounds like some kind of rain dance that they're dancing to... I'd rather stay home at this weather, enjoying it indoors... The atmosphere is cooling and relaxing... Not hot and sweaty like it usually is...
I'm currently in love with some songs...
1. Cinderella by Steve Chapman
It about a song that he wrote for his daughter as a father.
In the lyrics, it says, "So I will dance with Cinderella, While she is here in my arms, 'Cause I know something the prince never knew, Oh I will dance with Cinderella, I don't wanna miss even one song, Cuz all too soon the clock will strike midnight, And she'll be gone..."
It says that she wanted to practise her dancing with him because she was invited to a ball in the castle, later saying that her prom night is here soon and lastly, seeing a wedding ring on her finger indicating that she's getting married soon.
I find this song really touching and tells the story that has been kept in our dad's heart for so long... He was singing many dad's heart out...

2. Teardrops on my guitar by Taylor Swift
Using the name Drew, Taylor Swift had also sang the hearts out of many girls... Having a good friend and finding out that he had found the right girl for him.. But just couldn't tell him how she felt for her...
"He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar, The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star, He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do.."

3. 保佑我 - 李志清
Although this was a very old song, but I loved it the very moment when I heard it on the radio sang by the original composer of this song. The plain guitar background giving you the feel that you are by the sea... It literally means "Pray For Me"... The composer, Lee Zhi Qing, is a talented young man from Malacca, Malaysia that had wrote songs for many artists, such as, Emil Chau 周华健, A-Du 阿杜, Rynn Lin 林宇中and also S.H.E.
I fell in love with acoustic songs accompanied by just a simple guitar... =) The clean strumming and plucking of the notes. Simple yet heart warming... 我... 爱上了木吉他的那把声音...

Not Satisfied with what I got...
The holidays are already over for almost a week now... How time flies...
It's about 2 weeks ago that Hui Ying, my ideal skating partner, went skating AGAIN. Yes, again, because it haveb't even been a year that we've went to Sunway to skate. And as usual, it was planned only the night before we went skating. Haha!
It's about 2 weeks ago since my beloved Labrador, Joy Joy, went to meet with our late German Shepard, Pongo, in Doggie Heaven.
And it's about a week ago that we've just sent our retired PK away from school, holding back tears which are about to fall anytime... Nah.. Not exactly.. But my class was quite happy to have another 4 free Add Maths lessons to play and monkeying about since Pn Chong used to be our Add Maths teacher.
A slideshow was played, showing pictures from her past, which I'm sure brought her down Memory Lane and remembering those good ol' days. She was a student from Kong Hoe! I didn't know that... And she was also the Prefect in Kwang Hua back in those days when Elvis Presley tops the billboard chart. I was pretty amazed that she had travelled to various countries, such as the USA, UK, Australia, Belgium, China just to name a few. Aww... I'm a green-eyed monster when I know a person have travelled to so many lands that I've never even set foot on. Hehe..
Well, after that 2 weeks of 'occupied' holiday, I've came back to my usual lifestyle.
Waking up at 6.20am every morning, slap myself awake then brushing my teeth half asleep, drink my usual cup of Fernleaf milk, sleep in my teacher's car all the way to school, continue my trip to Dreamland after a short walk from the carpark to my class, eat Spaghetti every Friday whitout fail and getting those 'envy' eyes staring at it wishing to take just 1 strip of the Spaghetti out of my plate thinking I would fall for those puppy eyes, have Monday Blues every Monday at assembly (and sleep), have tuition almost everyday and my day ends when the clock strikes 1am or 1.30am... Wow... What a busy day... =_=
Talking of school, I've got back my results for the exam I sat for before the lovely, lovely holidays, and I was not at all satisfied with the results I got... 5 A's out of 11?! Darn... How bad is that, plus, being in 4S2 n sitting beside the super maths gurl, YYV, makes it even worse... T.T It's not like I'm going to state down every marks I got, but I can just give all of you 1 conclusion: IT WAS BAD!
But! Yes, but, I have 1 pretty satisfied subject, which is... *drum rolls* Chinese! I've never ever got an A in my life since Form 1 till now, except in PMR where I think the marker's half blind to give me an A... =_= Although it's just an itsy-bitsy little A2, my heart is already soaring half way to space.
1 funny incident to mention:
I'm not supposed to say this, but, it's just pure entertainment... Heehee! A bunch of girls at the back of the class and 2 or 3 boys were playing Truth or Dare and 1 of the boys lost. He chose to dare instead of telling the truth although I wasn't really sure what on earth was happening back there. So, by choosing to Dare, the girls told him to come up front to sing Yue Liang Dai Biao Wo De Xin 月亮代表我的心 to Yoon Voon since it was her Birthday the day before (12/6).. The boy, i think, was almost peeing his pants, but he, who's full of guts and courage (eh-hem), decided to sing.. I was laughing with tears in my eyes when he started singing the first phrase of the song. But at the end, the class gave him a round of applaue + cheers! =) Those from 4S2 may know the lead actor of this incident.... =P
ps: Happy Fathers' Day!!! and also Happy Birthday to: Xin Yi (2/6), 俊彦 （5/6，哲俊 (8/6), Chai Wei (11/6), Ah Boon (YYV) (12/6), Sa Ku (13/6), Bro & Alvin (16/6), Qiao Fang & Hunt (24/6) n Mama & Rain (25/6)!
