Had band today too. Played the boring SYF pieces..'Singapore Rhapsody' and 'Panther Fire'. Sir kept asking us to play parts over and over again. My lips and my teeth are hurting, pressed my lips too hard on my mouthpiece. Shitloads! I really admire Sir's patience with our band. He never gives up on us no matter how badly we play. He's got the 'can-do' spirit towards everything and always tries to push us up to greater heights.

Today was the first day of our three days camp.It was B-O-R-I-N-G!! This is totally unfair because the other levels have got so much more interesting and exciting stuff on their list while the sec fours and fives are focussed more on our learning, and better academic approach. We had proffesionals from the Learning Styles Centre, Centre for Cognitive Technologies and the Singapore Mountaineering Federation.

The only one I enjoyed was when the guy came in to talk/teach us about mountaineering and stuff. The mountaineer's name was Asmi. He joked with us about his name that is aka 'ask me' or in chinese 'wen wo'. Haha!

We learned how to tie a few knots and gained some knowledge about mountaineering. And he even showed us how to put on the harness for tomorrow's 'adventure'! All of us started giggling and laughing!! Yes, we were dirty minded! Haha!

It was followed by a talk in the hall which lasted for like one and a half hours. Damn boring. I was dying of boredom. Almost fell asleep when the man was talking. Even the teachers there looked like they were dead bored. At 12pm,we had our lunch. I was shocked. It was buffet and the food was not bad.

At 1pm we went back to class and another man came to talk to us about whatever resilience stuff. Boring! Everyone wasn't listening obviously. Miss Tan asked us to come with a mind-set of "the camp is gonna be fun", as we already knew before hand how boring this camp would be. Tomorrow's gonna be much more fun and exciting. Gonna have lots of activities and hopefully i can get a tanner under the sun!

The lions are gonna parade along orchard on top of an open-air double decker bus which is obviously that hippo tour one. haha. they will also stop to pose for pictures with fans and mingle with them!! OMG!!! I will be going with Maisarah, Malina, Saedah and maybe Yu Min! Can't wait man!

The dress code again is RED!!!! Yeah RED!!! From the Kallang roar to the Orchard roar!!!! I wanna see Baihakki! I'm dying to see him again! Muahaha!

Oh ya and I just found out from my cousin that ACS(Barker)'s carnival falls on the same day as our school's carnival!!! Gonna buy the tickets from him no matter what. It cost the same price as our school's tickets-10 bucks.

OMG! The Tiger Cup Finals at the National Stadium last night was absolutely awesome, cool, spontaneous!! The mood was undesripable! Every Die-Hard football fan like me came in red to show our support for the Lions!!

Collected the official die-hard fans t-shirt at the booth for Singapore supporters only. Cut the bloody long queue. muahaha. the people around me was so nice! They let me jump the queue man. The shirt's not bad at all. Woah..the crowd was like 55,000!! Fortunately for us, we got the 6th row seat, that was like so near the pitch and goal-post!! OMG!!! At like 6.15pm, the Lions came out to train. Everyone was showing their support. I could hear familiar drum-beats and the good ol' cheer during the Malaysian Cup days of "Ole..Ole...Ole...Ole..!!! Ole.....Ole!!!!".

I was one of them who was shouting,screaming and cheering myself hoarse! OMG!!! Then I spotted Baihakki. He was wearing the red die-hard t-shirt during their training . OMG!! My heart was like beating 120 beats per minute. then he ran-followed by a 100m dash toward every distance. They did stretches too, like push-ups and leg stretching. After that, they paired up. Baihakki paired up with Danielle Bennett. Then when Danielle threw the ball..Baihakki practised using his head to hit the ball, kicking the ball oh and the hottest one was when he used his legs to kick the ball in a back-thrust style! I was screaming away!

Finally at about 7.30pm the match started. they sang the National Anthem before the game. Baihakki was easy to spot as he was the tallest among his other team-mates! When the game started everyone cheered with their loudest possible voice. Haha..the funniest thing was that the entire stadium cursed at the Indonesians..there was a beat followed by a shout by the audience: Buto [its the Malay f*** word] though I've never heard it before I just played along. Within the 1st half of the game, Singapore lead by 2-0. Everyone knew it will be victory for one and all Lion supporters.

First goal was scored by Indra Sahdan while the other was scored by Agu Casmir. Singapore did not score any goals during the second half of the match but Indo scored a pathetic one, bringing the total second leg score to 2-1.The total aggregate of the finals is 5-2!!! Singapore won!!! Victory as we did the Kallang wave..clapped...shouted...screamed...cheered..anything you could think of.

Like 10 mins before the game ended, Lionel Lewis, Goh Tat Chuan and Baihakki Khaizan smelled victory as there was just no way the indos could catch up with singapore. They asked us to cheer.

Singapore have just crossed a milestone and the Lions have created history once again!! Lionel Lewis and Baihakki hugged each other straight after the match. OMG! So nice! The Lions carried their coach and I could see the coach was in the highest of spirits and proud of his boys!! Then I saw Baihakki taking of his jersey to exchange with the Indo player. hotttttttt!! Then the coach passed him a clean jersey. Once again he took of his shirt in front of like the whole stadium. I was totally freaking out!

After they received the Tiger Cup trophy and the cash prize of US$100,000, the entire team ran around the stadium holding up the trophy with pride!!! OMG! The Lions have done Singapore proud!!! Continue to work hard...can't wait for the SEA games man. Woo-hoo!!

Tonight will be the night that Singapore's soccer glory days be restored, or will it be another upset? No..I'm sure it will not be! Lol! Few hours more before I leave the house for the stadium the showdown between Sunny Island Singapore and big bad Indonesia. Muahaha...Singapore with a 3-1 advantage over the indonesians during the first leg of the finals. I'm truly glad that singaporeans are actually supporting the lions all the way. But pls do not be fair-weather fans, no matter what the outcome of tonight's finals are, regardless of whether sinagpore can or can not lift the Trophy, pls do not turn your back on the Young lions. To have come this far, kudos should be given to this current national team. Critics should be less harsh with them, and stop all those writings on 'Kelong'. For all to judge, most matches have been shown live on tv, as far as singapore is concern.. There couldn't be any 'kelong' opportunity at all lah.

Read today's strait times.. There's a very cheeky article on some of the singapore soccer players from the national team. The four hunks, defender Baihakki Khaizan, captain Aide Iskandar, Goalkeeper Lionel Lewis and midfielder Goh Tat Chuan. I've been supporting Baihakki Khaizan all the way.i'm not surprised that he's in this category, based on his good looks and height. He's tall, standing at 1.9m.. But... i'm not sure about Lionel Lewis and Goh Tat Chuan though. Yes lionel lewis has made some terrific saves for the singapore team, if not we would have been out of this tournament. Yet again.. He's not exactly hunky material, he's more like e goodie-two-shoes kind, aka 'mummy's boy'. Goh Tat Chuan, they write him as 'Ah-beng hunk'.

Back to soccer. Really afraid that tonight will be a upset for Singapore. But I have the confidence it won't. Afterall, it is for certain that Indonesia will be going all out to attack.Heya, tonight will be a adrenaline pumping match ! Pls watch e final live on channel 5 tonight ! 7.25pm.. God Bless us. =)

OMG!I I can't wait for tomorrow! I'll be going for the Tiger Cup finals!! Woo-hoo!! Words can't expressed my happiness and excitement!! I was too excited till I couldn't sleep last night! I slept for barely half-an-hour! Kept thinking of Baihakki, the match tomorrow and loads. There were like so many things going through my mind!

Suppose dto go to tampines stadium yesterday to watch the Lions training session but didn't because daddio said we will be going out in the night. Nevermind, the fever is onnnnnn! Practically every Singaporean is suffering from the Tiger-Cup football fever!!

I'm not surprised that all 55,000 tickets to the finals were sold out within 48h. Everyone who's going to the Tiger Cup match wear RED!! Can't wait to see Baihakki-no.6..centre-back defender! Easy to spot him. He's the tallest in the team. Look a little ang-moh, tall and lanky.

Anyway yesterday, the sec1s had CCA Orientation. And you know what? Only like 16 people joint band! I heard that all the other CCA's had around the same figures too. I am worried no juniors will carry the horn section on, the future of our band.

Anyways, I just can't wait to get out of this school!

Woo-hoo! Finally got my Edusave Scholarship Award today! It was held at Haig Girls' School. Was there around 2pm when it actually started at 3pm. Haha. Anyway I was a little nervous before I got on stage. I had weird thoughts. Falling on the stage or worse still, off-stage. Utter nonsensical thoughts I had then. Received the $500 cheque and a certificate by the minister, Chan Soo Sen. This year, grandma was there too!

Went to Harbour Front after that. Shopped. Bought a skirt, an adidas cap and hair accessories. Had dinner at Sakae.

Watched Tiger Cup-football till around 11pm before returning home. Singapore won 3-1 over Indo. It was a 3-0 game till like the last second. Indonesia scored with a free kick.Wasted. OMG! Baihakki's hottttt stufff!!

Had heaps of homework! Mannnnnn! Teachers in school are driving me mad! They throw us with tonnes of homework, thinking we're robots with super-substential fingers. My hand will just break sooner or later. whatever.

Went to Haagen Daz after dinner just now. Ate Chocolate Decadence! Oooooo soooo yummy!! Daddy and myself ate the most expensive ice-cream..I mean among all of us. Heck. Mummy says it doesn't matter so long as we like it and enjoy it.

Didn't go to school today. Daddio and Mummy brought me to the doctor's just now. Had to do blood test! Eeewww. Yucks. He took like three test-tubes of blood from me! wth. It was gross! The injection didn't really hurt much. I was dead scared at first!! Didn't wanna miss school in fact. Today is the start of lessons and I'd miss it!I Health should come first though. I'm tired. I need sleep..some sleep..deep deep sleep!!

School re-opened today. We didn't do much except for maths. It was damn boring and it didn't feel like I was in a school-mood yet. Neither are most of my friends. Now i'm beginning to miss the holidays! I'm sick! Aargghh!!

Watch football just now. Indo thrashed Malaysia by a wide margin of 4-1.The Indo's played a rough match though. Indo will now meet Singapore in the finals held this Saturday,8th January! I will probably be going to watch the match with daddy, my cousins and uncle! Woo hoo! But provided it doesn't rain. I'm a die-hard fan of football.

Nose bled just now. Running a fever, down with a bad throat and running nose. Doubt I will be able to attend school tomorrow.
