feeling: SO HAPPY! First, I'd like to apologise for not being on NuTang for so long, and apologise for not having another bento ;_; I'll make one during Christmas, promise! I was just way busy on Thursday >_<;; So wasn't able to make one... Anyways! OH MY WORD!!! I PASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I PASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And not only did I pass, I got a MERIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M SOOOOOO HAPPY!!! Gosh I just wanted a pass!!! OMW I GOT A MERIT I'M SO, SO HAPPY!!! (I'm on Associated Board, by the way, it goes Pass/Merit/Distinctionm, no Honours) I don't know the full details of it yet--gonna discuss that with my piano teacher soon and have a look at it, but WAH! SO HAPPY!!! I'll bet I failed my aurals though heh heh ^^;; OH WELL! UWAHHHHHHHHHH SO HAPPYYYYYYYYYYYY YAAAAAAAAY!!! =DDD The perfect Christmas gift! =DDD I've decided to continue it on; gonna do Diploma in Performance next, wooooot! =DDD Praise the Lord!!! MAJOR thanks to:
God - seriously, if it wasn't for God's guidance there's NO WAY I'd have passed. THANK YOU SO MUCH! <333333 L8r, —×Kuri×— Plugs to the beautiful: ryan444123, ikimashokie, rrzhang001, cynnielee, frostbitten, Nuttz, renaye, Syphie <33333333 L8r,

feeling: Happy, but so cold!!! Gosh, how long as it been since I blogged, eh? ^^;; =Sigh= I haven't had much time to blog lately ;_; Well, I dunno, I guess I have, but I guess I haven't had the inspiration to...? ^^;; I've also been rather... lazy/not-in-the-mood with Bentos =sigh= Haven't made any for the past couple of weeks, but I'll hopefully make my (last one for a while due to Christmas Hols) Bento this Thursday =] Anyways! As you may (or may not) know, I had my Grade 8 piano exam last Thursday... That might not mean anything to those who don't live in the UK, but basically, Grade 8 is the highest grade you'll really need in an instrument, so yeah, means quite a lot to me ^^;; Erm... Well, the results should be back in a couple of weeks, so I'll let you guys know what I got! =D (Hopefully I passed! =fingers crossed=) Thanks to all those friends who wished me luck and prayed for me <333 How'd it go? Well, twas actually okay ^_^ My scales were pretty good, apart from this *one* scale (E flat minor in sixths apart) that I *could not do* ;_; I was so annoyed cos I tried it *twice* as well and I STILL couldn't get it right =sigh= Gave up on that one in the end... The rest were okay though =3 My pieces, I'm glad to say, were okay =3 My first one: I didn't even make *one* mistake!!! I was so pleased <333 I did a couple of slips where I accidentally pressed two keys at once, but that was about it! Yay!!! =DDD My second piece, though... Gosh I messed that one up =sigh= I basically messed up the beginning, then got back on track, but then she coughed and distracted me, so I messed up the middle, but then got back on track, then I somehow managed to mess up the end too ;_; It wasn't *that* bad, but... =sigh= Stupid Mr. Mozart ;_; My third piece started off well, though, but then towards the end, because there were so many massive jumps in chords from one end of the piano to the other, I kept playing wrong notes x_x;; I don't think she realised though, until I played so many wrong chords she had to look down at the music to have a look heh heh ^^;; (She was focused on my playing before then ^^;; -- you can see her reflection in the piano =3) Hopefully it wasn't *that* bad though =3 BUT!!! For the FIRST time in my ENTIRE history of sight-reading, I think I passed this one!!! YAY!!!! =DDDDDDDDD <333333 Now that the areas I've passed have been told... erm... I basically *know* I failed my aurals ^^;; I mean, singing bottom line? Hah. Telling what cadence is what? Double HAH! And my sight-singing was an absolute disaster. I mean, I basically squawked my way through it... I was like "Erm... lar... larrr lar... lar????!! =Insert more random un-note-like noises here=" She asked me if I would like to try again, and I gave her a very honest answer: "not really ^^;;" heh heh ^^;; And modulations?? Weren't gonna happen. I completely guessed, and also completely RAMBLED through what the period of the piece she played was... >_>;; I think I got it wrong anyways =sigh= *HOPEFULLY* I've still passed though! =D I'll let you guys know when my results are back ^_^ In other news on Kuri's life: It's Christmas soon =D I'm actually just looking forward to the holiday... SO tired lately x_x;; I have so much work to do ;_; (Well, actually, it's not that much work--it's just SO DARN HARD to do it! I don't get Linear Programming at all!!!) People ask me like... what I want for Christmas, and the honest answer is: nothing ^^;; Well, nothing that they can buy me, at least =/ There's one main thing I want for Christmas: Snow. We rarely, if not, NEVER get snow here ;_; =sigh= I wish for snow... Okies~ I forgotten what else I wanted to say so I'll leave it at that heh heh ^^;; I also intend to update more often! ^^;; I know I've been absolutely AWFUL with blogging lately =sigh= I promise to blog more often again!!! I've just had my mind occupied a lot lately ^^;; I have to say, though, even though I've been *completely* dead from NuTang lately, I must still thank you all so much for visiting my blog anyways!!! <333333 Much love to you all!!!

feeling: happy but tired~ Ah... my uber-busy week is over! ^_^ Although I lacked a lot of sleep and was overcome by stress for quite a bit, it was still majorly fun~ =D Had an absolutely brilliant weekend too! Omw! Taming The Tiger was *SO* good!!!!! <3333333 I absolutely loved it to pieces!!! Gosh if I'd have known talks would be this good I would have gone to the other one too!!! >_<;; *SO* going to the next one!!! O_O;; I also bought the "Taming the Tiger" book and got Tony Anthony to sign it straight away XDDDDDD He even drew a smiley face on it haha how cute! ^_^ Would anyone like to see it? =3 I can take a photo and put it on here if you want =] Something interesting (to me, at least =P): I think it's really cool how I met this guy at my Church AGES ago, but he never came back, so I figured I'd probably never see him again, and just when I'd almost forgotten about him, I see him again at *swimming* in the Sports Hall haha XD And we didn't really talk much there either, so I figured I'd never see him again after that as well... The very next week, I see him at the Cantonese Bible Study group lol. I had been intending to go there to try improve my (very limited) cantonese ^_^ Cool, huh? XD (This time we actually spoke properly and got contact details haha) That was the 17th Nov (Michael's Bday~~~ I have yet to get him a present =cough=) lol and now I'd say we'd already become really good friends, yay~ =DDD Lol it's kinda like what happened between Ani and I, cept this time I didn't hate Him (his name, believe it or not =P) when I first met him ^^;; What happened between Ani and I? Well... when she first came to England, we were 6 yrs old, and she lodged at my house for... I forgot how long, but according to my parents it was only about a month or so, and during that time, we annoyed the blah out of each other ^^;; When she left I never thought I'd see her again... In fact, I'd *completely* forgotten about her ^^;; Four years later, we met again at Chinese school, but still hated the blah outta each other, then I quit cos I didn't like it and wasn't learning ^^;; yet another 2-3 yrs later, we meet again, and became best friends within a week! XDDDDD I guess there are just some people you feel you can just... connect with straight away, and even though you haven't known each other long, you can still become amazing friends? ^^;; Am I making sense? =3 Okay in my case it takes about 3 tries to actually get to that 'great friends' status, but hey! ^^;; =P Also tried out a different Church yesterday--omw... the worship was AMAZING... Seriously the BEST worship I've had in... *way* too long... <33333333 I'd love to go back there, but I don't think I'll be able to =/ My parents are reluctant to send me there and... yeah =sigh= I'll blog an unedited version of my weekend some time ^^;; (although it'll be password protected >_>;; =3) Although I had an interesting discussion with my parents in the evening XD I asked them "What would you do if I told you I'd had a boyfriend for the past 6 months?" and this was me asking my rather-traditional-but-changing Chinese parents ^^;; Funnily enough, my mum was immediately like "Congratulations! =D I wouldn't care, I told you before, I don't mind at all ^_^" then started guessing who supposed-boyfriend was hahaha XD My father was like "Yeah, I'd be alright with it but you should have told us *before* you got a boyfriend, not 6 months after." And also began assuming I had a boyfriend... I just laughed at them and told them I *don't* actually have a boyfriend, I only said *if* =P My daddy was like "I think God would let us know if a guy is suited for you though", which, fair enough, but I thought surely God would tell *me* first, and then tell mummy, cos she's obviously more open about this issue =3 My daddy was quite interested in what my mummy would say about this and asked if God had given her a sign, so she just said, "Well, I think it'd all be very natural when the time comes and she'd accept whoever I chose". Yay mummy~ <3 Right... I have an R.E. essay to write about asylum seekers and the right of indigneous peoples... and how religious leader communities can help resolve the issues involving asylum seekers...
I have gotten as far as "Nowadays the issue of asylum seekers are becoming more and more of a problem." >_>;; Gyargh!!! I've NO idea what to write!!! I And it's due in tomorrow... =dies= Y'know, I wish I could just stay in my own little Kuri-La-La-Land and never come out of my fantasy world of rainbows and butterflies and sunny days ¬_¬; We've all turned the world into a horrible place and I don't like it ;_; Hopefully if I'm lazy enough I can get kicked out of Society and Ethics then I'll never have to worry about writing essays for them again >_>;; Plugs to the beautiful: Nuttz, Dotty, The-Muffin-Man, Mockiller <3333 L8r,

feeling: tired... Ah... how long has it been since I watched Sailor Moon? XD It really confused me when I was watching it when I was younger cos I kept missing episodes and stuff, then I stopped altogether, then when I got back into it a new season had started and I was hearing all this stuff about new characters, so gave up in the end ^^;;

NO time to rest by then... and I've been losing sleep like bleh), meet up with friends, meal, Taming the Tiger talk 7:30-9pm, go to bible study group, expecting to get home... 11:30pm ish Saturday: chores, badminton, swimming, piano practise, homework Sunday: church, homework, instrumental practise And that, my dears, is my week... The most hectic week I've had all year... I'm SO tired and I've got dark rings under my eyes too TT_TT =sigh= I wasn't even able to make a bento yesterday cos I was so tired and busy >_<;; Okay, gotta go now! <333 Plugs to the beautiful: Xboyz, kkama67, dave, Mockiller, Kirei, Nuttz, ryan444123 <33333333 L8r,
