My favourite thing to do during jams is to play the Seven Nation Army bassline until everyone else joins in... yep, definitely the annoying distracting bandmate. Haha #randomthoughts
Neeways, FINALS ARE OVAAAAA.
I have waited for this day for soooo long. And again I will say this...
I can't believe I'm finally officially done with the first semester!!! It really just flew by me.
Lemme be lame (like I am all the time) and do a little recap!
Managed to get a spot for the FASS orientation camp, but decided not to go in the end. I feel sorry for all the people who will never get to know me :( sorry yall :(
Week one: overly excited for school (naturally) with my dearest Kee Lianne (yes yes don't worry I know that's not your real name). We stuck together like glue when we could (I think we still do actually) and I felt really tiny and lost whenever I had to go around school on my own, especially when tutorials started in the third week. NUS also turned out to look a little less pretty/atas than I initially thought it would, but I guess now I'm used to it.
Was also initially wow-ed by the seemingly wide array of food choices in NUS, but now it's like... "Sian... where you wanna eat?" "The Deck ah?" "Okay lor. Sian."
Tried out for Amplified in the second or third week, I can't remember. It was nerve-wracking, especially cause I had to audition with another bass player who was damn good in my opinion but for some reason he didn't get in in the end. Plus I made friends with him before that so I could borrow his really expensive-looking bass guitar cause I was too lazy to bring my own. #guilty
Got the good news that I got in around the third or fourth weeek, hurrah!! I was really really happy and being in Amplified was a great experience cause I got to meet many wonderful musicians.
Weeks 5 to 9, for me, was when the crazy stuff really kicked in. Projects and assignments, cca practice for the gig, and preparation for midterms. Had a few 12-hour school days. I would be soo tired by the end of the week. 10 to 13, which was after the gig, midterms and most of the assignment deadlines had passed, were a whole lot better.
Also very thankful for Kee Lianne because I realize I would really be all alone in school without her. It's been a good time studying with you, going around school and laughing at non-funny things with you :)))
Don't worry we love you too Tania!!! You are in our minds and hearts!
So yesh, that was Year 1 Sem 1 in a nutshell. I feel so accomplished haha
Had EL final today, it was do-able --> bell curve will be steep --> but should be still okay enough for me to get a C and S/U the mod
I quite enjoyed myself during the final actually HAHA. Mainly cause it was the last paper + I knew two hours would be more than enough time for 60 MCQs so I took my time perusing the questions. Whoever set the paper has quite a sense of humour; I had to suppress a smile at the Harry Potter-felicity conditions question.
Most people finished the paper by 10 and some were already leaving though official stop time was 11. I sat there a little while more to think about where to go for lunch haha.
Went to Working Title again. Really had to drag myself there because I was tired and felt like going home but I knew that if I went home I'd just drink tea and spend the afternoon on the Internet, which is something I foresee myself doing a lot for the next five weeks, so, nope.
Got the Eggs & Toast, it was kinda meh-ish. I liked the mushrooms cooked in truffle oil but the smoked salmon was really a downer for me- is smoked salmon supposed to taste that salty?? And it didn't taste fresh at all... or idk, maybe that's what smoked salmon's supposed to taste like? (I'm not being sarcastic here, I really don't know)
But the coffee was wonderful as always. It was heavenly. Not even exaggerating; I think I'm in love with it.
Went to visit my grandma after that and had a good chat with my cousin too. He's like the little brother I never had :( I used to cheat at games and make him cry all the time when we were kids and now he's enlisting next month... Noooo I'm getting old
So anywayz, I know blog quizzes are totally secondary school... but I'm too punk rock to care.
