First day of school....last day of band...

Today marks the new chapter of my life, after I closed the chapter of my army life, its been pretty much left empty till today. Today, racial harmony day, also the turning point for me as I head back to books. Yes, I am a student once again.

Woke up rather early today as I had to attend the orientation organised by the school. Btw, I am going to start my degree in Business, specialising in Hotel and Resort Management. Hmm, got there abit late, mis-predicted the time for my bus trip, took an hour rather den 45 mins man... haha. Anyway, the class was pretty decent I must say, a balance of girls and guys, thou there are still slightly more girls. However majority of the class is doing a full time course, felt kinda left out and thinking if I made the right choice... hehez... nevertheless, the morning was a rather fruitful one, with numerous speakers giving us talks about the school and everything, boring but fruitful. At least I know all the important people to contact when I need them. After that was a photo of the class before we tour the school. Enjoyed seeing the gym most i guess.. haha would likely visit there pretty often I guess... hehez...

After the orientation, headed to town for a little subway before heading down to nyp for band alumni prac. Was really thinking if I should go down or just stay in town to do shopping, but managed to convince myself that I should go since it will be my last. Next week onwards, I will have class on sat and will not be abit to go down anymore. Sorry guys, I really enjoy making music with all of you... but studies will have to come first, hope u understand.

The Prayer - Celine Dion & Josh Groban

I pray you’ll be our eyes
And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
In times when we don’t know
Let this be our prayer
As we go our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we’ll be safe
La luce che to dai
I pray we’ll find your light
Nel cuore restero
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarchi che
When stars go out each night
L’eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c’e
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we’ll be safe.
Sognamo un mondo senza piu violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace e di fraternita
La forza che ci dai
We ask that life be kind
E’il desiderio che
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amore
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro a se
Another soul to love
Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Just like every child
Needs to find a place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we’ll be safe
E la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salvera

Great weekend...

This weekend is very filled with work-outs, music and BEER!!! haha... Will slowly explain myself later... sinful, but satisfying...

Friday, started my day off with a gym session at hougang, after that headed down to NYP for a concert performance, was roped in last min (like last saturday) to help out. I must say, its the most un-organised concert I have ever performed in. Imagine doing a dry run of the entire concert only an hour before the concert commence. For the past week, practise ended after 10 pm almost everyday. But at least all that hard work kinda paid off, and the concert ended on a good note. Happy for them, hopefully they learn from this lesson. Will share picture later at the end of the entry.

Saturday, went for a swim in the morning, then met up with herbert in town to settle on the Mizuno Wave Run next weekend before meeting up with karen, xiu and jennie for lunch at Central at taka. After which, we were joined by ah tom and sasa (jennie left for family day thingy) and headed off for some ktv at the old singtel building. KTV with the gang is always fun lah... everyone laugh so hard that they all ended up with cramps and all... hahaha. After which we headed off to a place near haji lane for dinner (Jap curry rice) and eski bar for a little chilling to end of the night.
Today, did an meaningful run at Toa Payoh Stadium, The "Go for Gold" project in support for the phyiscally disabled athelete so raise fund for the Olympic in 2008. Made my personal contribution of 31 laps around the track. The sun was burning hot man... After that, return to school with the band (nyp band was performing fyi) and showered. Was initally thinking of cycling with Meiting and gang, but as they dragged on, I decided to join herbert and gang for a little concert in the park. There were band presentation by Yu hua, Cresent Girls, St.Andrews, Ping Yi and Swiss Cottage. Best performance will have to go to St. Andrews. the rest was entertaining thou I doubt Cresent Girl's gold medal after listening to them... haha.... Anyway after that, we settle at holland V for dinner before proceeding to Seletar Airbase for a little drinking session again. hahaha MORE BEER!!!

That kinda sums up my weekend... here is some pics from the concert.... enjoy...
