This week has been good so far (:

Went for this month's COG on Sunday - photos will be in a separate post. It's always great to meet people you know there, running down Orchard Road to get good photo-taking opportunities and so on. The camera ran out of memory while recording the SPDS performance though.. However due to the fact that there is no such thing as 'wide-angle lens' in my dictionary the videos practically useless anyway - except for Weimin.. For the camera happened to focus on him most of the time..

Half day off on Tuesday followed by alumni rehearsal in school.
The 7th Night of July!
Great memories of that piece.. It was the NY girls' favourite 'spammable' song of sorts eh Chai, Cyn, Judy? LOL!
And of course we played it for the year-end concert back in 2008.

Wow.. Its been two years since that epic-ly named concert that was memorably fraught with tension between the committees of both HS and College sides (with NY's a neutral party). ^^ How do you pronounce 'HCImpressione' again? And did that guy condescendingly call our band major the 'band dismissal girl'?

Anyway it was refreshing to meet so many peers and seniors (ok, even if only 2 came) after one year. I think a lot of HC people, me included, will bite at any opportunity to make music with each other once again. Don't think that will happen again though, unfortunately.. >.<

I've never had so many events lined up all in a row though. First up will be Friday's Bella Notte, then Saturday's NOEL, Wednesday's platoon getaway and finally Saturday's stayover to celebrate you-know-who's birthday(s). Throw in some comic convention this Sunday into the mix as well :D Don't think I'll want these two weeks to end even I yearn for next December to come ASAP. What irony..

And as I look into your eyes
I see an angel in disguise
Sent from God above for me to love
To hold and idolize

And as I hold your body near
I'll see this month through to a year
And then forever on till life is gone
I'll keep your loving near

And now I've finally found my way
To lead me down this lonely road
All I have to do is follow you
To lighten off my load

You treat me like a rose
You give me room to grow
You shone the light of love on me
And gave me air so I can breathe
You open doors that close
In a world where anything goes
You give me strength so I stand tall
Just like a rose

And when I feel like hope is gone
You give me strength to carry on
Each time I look at you there's something new
To keep our loving strong
I hear you whisper in my ear
All of the words I long to hear
Of how you'll always be here next to me
To wipe away my tears
...
And though the seasons change
Our love remains the same
You face the thunder
When the sunshine turns to rain
Just like a rose

Like a Rose - AI (1999)

Too idealistic for my own good? *Sighs*.
How far can the truth be from the optimism portrayed by the lyrics.

Guess I should take back the first sentence of this post.
It has been a rather horrible week in retrospect, really, at least emotionally

More like a wilted rose exposed mercilessly to the sun in the Sahel than anything else.
