K-BOX

今天起了个大早,满心期待的到学校练习太鼓。可是,到了那里,我们才发现钥匙被借走了,所以没有办法将储藏室的门打开。最后,我们只好将时间放在玩扑克牌上。待Vivan从电脑中心回来后,我们也前往金文泰地铁站与Stephie、Jaslyn汇合。

后来,我们九个人就浩浩荡荡的在K-BOX从2pm一直唱歌唱到7pm,间中也趣事一箩筐呢!当然,除了有Jordan频频大声歌唱,然后还有让大家发现了Jaslyn其实也是一个很疯狂的人!此外,我和Stephie也一致认为,Alvin的歌声很不赖,而Daniel则是心事重重的等等……(好像有些离题了:p)

结束后匆匆地离开了,就为了会去照顾妹妹,不过还是很愉快的!不过,现在的动力就是为了星期五的渡家屋做准备,以及为接下来的日文课报名复习了!至于开学……就船到桥头自然直咯!

平常日

回溯这几天的生活,其实也很平凡的,并没有什么特别的事情发生。


星期六照常去观音庙祈福,接着到了Bugis逛街,买了一个很可爱的扩音器——Pinko。


昨天则是在家里颓废了一天……还挺无趣的呢……


今天则与Melissa、Vivian到Bugis逛街,最后,她们两人都卖到了自己想要买的东西,而我依旧是空手而回。这也许就是陪人逛街以及自己购物的差役吧!


明天将会有太鼓练习,之后还要到K-Box去唱歌,满期待的……希望明天会过得更加得充实!


这就是我新买的扩音器——Pinko:

唱唱歌,逛逛街

今天与Melissa、Alvin、Sky、Vivian、Jordan,一起到Cash Studio 唱卡拉OK。那里的日本歌曲真的是应有尽有呢!唱得蛮开心的说!

后来,与Melissa、Alvin、Jordan和Daniel汇合,一起逛街,边走边逛来到了狮城大厦。在那里,我们只是随便走走逛逛,吃顿饭。虽然没什么特别的事,不过,还是很有趣!我们甚至激化了下一次的外出活动呢!就在下个星期二!希望这次能有更多人能去!

失望与期待

到学校练习太鼓,对我来说,就是一天的生活动力。

太鼓练习一如往常地,非常的顺利……可是,其实下午的时候,我们得到消息:星期四的表演被取消了!不过,今天大家却很投入的练习。而Alvin、Sean、Jaslyn、Chao Lin,更是毫不在乎的与我们一起练习呢!最重要的是,今天的练习,虽然很散乱,可是效果还是蛮好的!说真的,如果Alvin、Sean等人加入太鼓队的话,我们应该会有更多的乐趣、笑话以及惊喜吧!

因为,Alvin、Sean等人很快的就将我们之前学的东西学上手,感觉……很厉害呢!

虽然对于这次的表演被取消很失望,不过,同时我也在期待着合宿的到来!因为我相信虽然这三天两夜会很累,可是却会很有趣!也许,三天两夜面对同样的人会有些‘闷’,可是,却是一种全新的体验!

继续期待……多一个星期……就到了……虽然渡假屋很小,不过却会很‘cozy’……很喜欢这种感觉地说……

另外,今天我们去吃晚餐时,无意中谈到了世界末日的话题。后来,问到我时,我对他们说:“跟喜欢的人告白……”,随后再加了一句,“如果有的话。”,才制止了他们问我“是谁?”。可是,说真的,如果碰到了……我也应该不会有勇气去告白的……因为,我是男生的‘buddy’嘛!

太鼓练习!

久违的中文篇章……

今天,为了星期四的表演,大家都放了一百二十分的心思在练习上。真的很好玩,教对方的打鼓、抓节奏的同时,也让自己的节奏更佳的加强了,同时也发现了自己的缺点。可是有一段时间,我们大家分成了两个小组为的是让Alvin不受Xin Jie、Kenny的影响,专心练习。

虽然不能马上就抱握节奏,却也已经大概抓到了要诀!明天,大家会更加的努力,让其他人更加的进步,好让我们星期四的表演更加的扣人心弦!

之后,我们到了West Mall吃晚餐,间中,还不时地‘酸’Daniel,可是,却依旧不敌Alvin的‘功力’,让自己频频受到‘反击’。最后,回家时,还被人阴差阳错的叫了声:“妈!”

我的天啊!我都还没有恋爱的经验呢!怎么会叫错呢!

真是令人费解……

Personality Test

English Post yet Again!

Came across this personality test on Alvin's blog and decided to give it a try. Because, well, I like to do this kind of stuff! And here's the result:

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might that person.

The seriousness of your love:

Your have very sensible tactics when approaching the opposite sex. In many ways people find your straightforwardness attractive, so you will find yourself with plenty of dates.

Your views on education:

You may not like to study but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job.

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life.

How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous.

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.

To a certain extent, it is quite true. People, do try it out!

Daiko Training

English Post Again!

Met up with Melissa & Daniel at Orchard for an daiko outing! As usual time with my fellow daiko members is always funfilling and relaxing! Went to Kinokuya to get some manga and stuff before walking to Far East Plaza for some shopping spree!

Stephie, Calista, & Jordan came over to meet up with us after that, and in the end only me and Melissa bought some stuff. After that, we went get Xin Jie's $12 Japanese Melon, before going to Takashimaya for ice-cream treated by Daniel! Haha! So nice of him, though he was like a bit trying to run from it (i think).

After the ice-cream treat, we went back to school for daiko training where we met up Kenny & Xin Jie. Training was fun as usual and we really had fun training, though my stick flew away today! By the end of the practice, we were trying so hard to get enough people for the Chinese Garden performance because only 6 person is available for the performance.

And guess who?

The usual: Melissa, Daniel, Xin Jie, Kenny, Stephie & me! Haha! In the end, we included Jordan & Alvin into the performance! And we were informed that Chaolin is available for the performance when we were going for dinner! Right now, looking forward to Monday and Tuesday's training! Because, we will be training Alvin and Jordan for the basic! I am sure that it will be lots of laughter!

Daiko Filming

English Post Once Again!

Today's daiko training before the filming in the morning,was quite smooth sailing. However, before we even started practising, the camera man came over and say that they wanted to film a candid scene of our practice, thus we have no choice but to obey. After which, we continued to have our self practice.

However, after lunch, we were to face the terrible truth! We are to carry 6 big drums, 2 small drums, 8 drum stands, the costumes, the drum sticks and our bag all the way from Blk 72 to Blk 30 near canteen 3! Imagine the distance!

We were so upset by the fact that the guys went round to try and borrow a trolley or a buggy to carry the drums over. However, after much attempts, Daniel and Melissa only manage to borrow one trolley. But it is better than none! So we make do with our 5 guys(Kenny, Xin Jie, Daniel, Chao Lin & Jevon), and 4 girls(Melissa, Stephie, me & Calista). The sun was scorching hot and we were quite dehydrated under the weather.

However, problem starts when we finished filming! Jevon left early and we were left with 4 guys and 4 girls. The worst situation is that we need to make 2 trips to get all the things back into the store rooms! This was one of the most tiring thing of the whole day! At the end of it, we went to Cheers to have some drinks and hydrate ourselves, and chit chat for a bit. However, we are all VERY VERY VERY TIRED!

All in all, though the filming was tiring and exhausting, I quite enjoy today's time with my fellow daikomates! Looking forward to the next outing with them! Time flew when I am always with them, I wonder why?

烦恼……

今天双成绩出炉了!

日文课顺利及格,接下来只需要与朋友们约时间一同去报名。这也许是一种小幸福吧!让我自己得到了回报,虽然成绩并不是很好,可是,接下来要更努力!否则,就不能往自己喜欢的方向发展了!

另外,我一直很紧张、担心自己的成绩会不理想,却比预期的好。可是,我却一直没有问班上同学的成绩如何。因为,我不想戴着面具去问他们,之后还要微笑与他们共处。这样的生活,让我的精神很累,很累……

可是,我却问了课外活动:太鼓队以及JTC其他人的成绩,反而没有压力,因为不是同一个课程的,所以反而可以‘敢敢问’,之后在互相了解有何好与不好的原因。这也是我了解他们课程的一个契机。当然,我们也可以好好的互相鼓励、勉励对方。与班长交谈,只问了他的成绩,因为,他不会多话,也会了解,我们的那种竞争意识,相信大家都会明白的。

不知为什么,有些孤单、寂寞,很想有个人可以依靠……有许多的不安、担忧,涌现出来,却不知为何会有这样的感觉……好累……因为要戴着面具和班上的人一起打交道。只希望,有个能了解的人一起聊聊这种感觉……

JTC Movie Marthon

Another English post!

Today, I met up with the JTC friends again! This has been going on for about two weeks non-stop! Frankly, spending my september holidays with JTC friends, daiko friends, is really a joy to me! Really Love the time spend with them!

The movie marthon starts at 9.30am, yet i arrived early to let the others to write Stephie's card. However, the movie marthon did not start until about 9.45am. The first movie '蛮有深度', but at least, it is quite entertaining. The second movie was something that I had wanted to watch previously, but did not have the chance. However, it is quite interesting, until the later half, where it starts to get like normal yazuka movies.

After the second movie, Stephie, Xin Jie and me went off for lunch, and met Stephie's boyfriend. Actually I would have ask Xin Jie to go off and leave them to the 两人世界, but in the end we joined them for lunch. I felt like a big lightblub! Furthermore, I took the same train with Stephie and her boyfriend all the way till Bugis. But I try to give them space. Not that I dun enjoy Stephie's company, it is just that it feels weird.

All in all, the day is fun-filling , and i love the time spend together with them! Looking forward to Wednesday's performance and practice session!

P.S. And results are out today! My school results was well above my expectations and I pass my Japanese test! I am so getting ready for my level 2 Japanese! Though, there is little chance that we might be in the same class again, but looking forward to meeting some of them during Japanese lessons!

最后,祝Stephie生日快乐,天天过的开开心心!不论何时何地,请你记得,都有我在哦!(还是按耐不住要以华文结束。)

太鼓表演!

今天结束了为期两个月的日语课程,成绩明天就会揭晓。能不能继续上第二级日文课,就看明天的成绩了。然后,我们一群人说好,知道了成绩要互相知会一声,然后,便赶去了Raffles Place MRT。

与太鼓队的队友们一同去Victoria Concert Hall观看了太鼓表演以及一些日本舞蹈表演。太鼓的表演实在很棒!可是当周围的朋友说看舞蹈很闷时,我也开始昏昏欲睡了。不过,真的很有趣的。间中还拿了Alvin的手机拍下了Xin Jie睡着的样子,当然在场看到的人都开始‘暗笑’了。哈哈!

后来,表演结束后,闹了老半天,大家都没有一个要去那里的结论。结果,大家的都分道扬镳了。挺闷的,当你一个人的时候,去哪里都会很闷,不过,回想起大家的一些冷笑话,还是挺有趣的!其实和太鼓的队友们在一起真的很有趣,当然,还有JTC的一些朋友、同仁,否则,整个外出,就只会是我们的太鼓话题了。 所以,其实,我很珍惜与课外活动的朋友相聚的时间哦!不过是因为太鼓才会认识更多的人,所以,我再次为自己能加入这个团体而感到庆幸!

话说回来,好久没去购物了,今天一去,才发现自己自己很久没有去逛街了。不过,还是挺享受一个人去逛街的,只是有些寂寞。不过,确实,很充实的过了一天!

明天,又要去学校和他们一起‘疯’了感觉,好兴奋哦!这也许就是课外活动与课堂上的不同吧!

献给太鼓队以及那些常给予我们帮助的JTC朋友:

喜欢与他们度过每一段时光,因为是他们。
喜欢与他们度过每一个日子,因为有他们。
喜欢与他们度过每一秒快乐,因为是他们。
喜欢与他们度过每一霎瞬间,因为有他们。
因为他们是他们,所以,我的生活才变得多姿多彩。
因为他们是他们,所以,我的生活才不会枯燥乏味。
因为他们是他们,所以,我的生活才不会痛苦难耐。

P.S.下一次,应该会写英文吧。所以,读不了华文的朋友,就忍耐一下吧!

太鼓练习!

今天是久违的太鼓练习!但是,我也答应了队友们,要以英语写今天的blog。

Please note: for the sake of my friends in JTC daiko, I am writing my blog in english!(for today!)

Today's daiko practice was one of the small scale practice where there are only 7 of us present and we only brought out 4 big drums and 2 small drums. At first, we were teaching our new daiko head: Melissa how to play Isamigoma, then we were doing some practice of the other 2 songs: Tomodachi and Okinawa practice. And suddenly after the short break, we started practicing Hiryuu and we started to get addicted to it.

When Xinjie came, we played at a much better speed and Melissa manage to learn Hiryuu. Yay! It is fun and very fulfilling! After that, we went for dinner, at the hawker centre nearby Ngee Ann, and i ate 2 serving! Oh dear! But at least, it is filling.

When i reach home at about 11.45pm, and make sure Stephie is home! Haha!Currently, looking forward to Sunday's concert! Hope it will be fun!

Natsu Camp!

终于有精神来更新了!


星期三,结束了两天的Natsu Camp。感觉很好玩,又很累。不过是只得,因为至少我认识了一些人。以后也不会这么……“blur”。


第一天,去认识了组员,然后,最不幸的事情发生了!抽签竟然会抽到一个,讨人厌的家伙,而这个人将会和我们相处两天。起都气死了!虽然搭档跟我说对不起,不过,我没有怪他,只能说是运气不好……不过,第一天,大家都还蛮放不开的,虽然有疯疯癫癫的时候,却不会很“high”。后来,才发现有几个人隔天不会来,不过还算愉快。结束了第一天的行程,大家都留下来学习怎么做Omiyage(纪念品),然后,我哪里,假的,还蛮好的……应该说,最快上手的是Stephie,因为是女生嘛!后来,我们几个太鼓成员在“忍无可忍”的情况下,去打了十五分钟的鼓。后来和其他人一起去吃晚餐时,根本不能好好休息,因为我就从头一直笑……满累的说……回到家都已经是一点钟了,还要准备隔天的呈现,最后,两点钟才睡……


第一天的组员:
第二天,Kenny加入了我这组,虽然,对Stephie有些过意不去,因为她想让Kenny去她那组(好像啦!)不过,很庆幸Kenny到了我这组,要不然,我们会很惨……一开始,玩human knot 的时候,根本解不开,,感觉很不甘心呢……不过很好玩地说……后来教他们做Omiyage(纪念品),也叫得满愉快的。午餐过后,大家就开始了Amazing Race,刚才是的第一站,我就要哭了……不过,其他人都很了解,所以也很照顾我们……呈现时,出现了一些小问题,不过,解决了,Kenny的表演也让许多人一直忍着不笑……哈哈!他蛮有演戏天分的。而最令我意外的是,我们的小组竟然得了奖……虽然,我怀疑是有很多的同情分……

第二天的组员:


不过总的来说,是一次很不错的经验,因为认识了新朋友,与太鼓队友的感情也变得更好了!

太鼓成员:






不论怎么说,太鼓的队友们,绝对是我人生、生命中最重要的一环!

好消息!


昨晚在网上搜索了一些视频,突然发现ZONE的成员之一:Tomoka复出了!自ZONE解散后,有三年了!Miyu后,Tomoka也复出了!几时,Mizuho才会也复出呢?甚至重组ZONE呢?很期待呢……不过,可能性蛮低的……接下来,只期待Tomoka能出专辑!

另外,解散将近9年的SPEED似乎要再次一起同台演出了!虽然不知他们是不是只为了慈善,才再次一起同台演出,还是将重组SPEED呢?期待最新的消息吧……不过,能再次看到他们一起演出,就是一种好消息……因为四个人在一起,魅力才不减当年!

准备

今天到学校去讨论了关于JTCcamp的事要,之后和Stephie一同到Pasir Ris去看太鼓合宿的烤肉会的一些食物的价格。

途中聊了很多,也大概把事情解决了,剩下的,就只是把人数确定,向其他人收钱,当天去买食物,准备就行了!

感觉很忙,将会有很多事情要忙碌、准备,虽然是如此,却很快乐。也许是因为在做自己喜欢的事情吧!

期待接下来的太鼓练习!
