music in words part 1 of 2
Surprisingly I didn't feel devastated when the exam results came. I was(and still am) worried for biology, that's my worst subject by far. And maybe addmath as well. Did fairly well for englih, though I personally felt I definitely could've done better. BM was pretty bad, but I didn't improve nor did I detoriate. Quite frustrating, that. Extremely careless for chem, thus the miserable results. Same goes for addmath. Don't plan to spill the beans just yet, not until I've confirmed everything. Would like to see where I can scrape up a few more marks to lower my agregate.
Catherine(?!anyway, the counselling advisory) decided to inform us on possible scholarships from nearby colleges. Should consider, if it would lighten my parents' burden. I wonder if I'm up to scratch, I'm the very average student.
The best part of the day came; going to the MPO for a short performance by chamber players..about an hour. 4 pieces, all were good. Yeah, even the Brahms piece was okay. If aiori and reeis were here they'd show a great deal of protest, as they nearly slept off. **takes a deep breath** ok, so here's how the story goes..
After school, say 1.45pm
Was raining cats and dogs, a few mice if necessary. Went to the doctor to see to my cough, but the happy crew ewre out to lunch and due at 2.30pm. Felt crappy as I had sloshed through puddles and gotten wet, I headed home, proceeded to lunch. And lounging about the house.
Mid-afternoon, 3.30pm
Confirmed details of meeting up with reeis, then rushed like mad to take a bath. Record time: 10 mins(complete bath+dress+drying hair). I'm this last-minute kinda person, quite sloppy and relaxed about timing. But! I do my best to be punctual. If I'm late, I'm late. I take responsibility. Anyway. Started on a brisk walk to reeis' place, took me about 15 mins. Then cabbed to the train station to meet up with aiori.
Not very long after, 4.17pm
Ok. At station. Phew. A lady talked to us abut a WWF nature-awareness campaign. Jammed coins into a machine, bought tickets, then hung about to wait for aiori. When aiori came, she waved at us. We waved back, but something unexpected occured. Some guy who was part of the WWF nature awareness campaign groupie waved at her, assuming that she was waving at him. Puzzled, amused and spontaneously, she waved at him too. We(the three of us), on reaching eye contact, exploded at that moment. we couldn't stop until reeis called out to her, then the mystified groupies got the message. Boarded the train, and away we went.
Tower1, 5.15pm
Met up with dad to pick up tickets. Wandered off and ended up in kinokuniya. Drooled at all the manga and artbooks there, and aiori bought the kino no tabi artbook by kuroboshi kouhaku. Neat. Then scurried back to the MPO. Got a 'reminder' not to wear sneakers on entering next time. Sigh. I felt embarrased then. I acted like a newbie, all right. If it weren't for anice guy who offered to help us, we'd be more or less lost. After all, it was my first time there. Now the real entertainment begins.
MPO, seat M24, 6.00pm
Fuuh. The silence was deafening. Not just literally, but in reality. Nothing could be heard, save for the last footsteps of the ushers exiting the hall.
tiredd...eyelids feeling heavy, ending my day.
