Today was an eventful day indeed. At piano lesson, my teacher coerced me to join the piano concert and play the piano part of a major item. Aaah. I am so gonna freak out. Ms Ong (piano school principal not the one you know) was looking for someone to play the piano for ‘Spanish Garden’ along with some other students of hers who were gonna play the cello, violin, viola and string bass. It happened that I came unluckilt at that time when they were discussing who was suitable to play that part as they needed someone who had steady hands and wouldn’t lose beat half way due to nervousness. My piano teacher, who is forever proud of her students, announced to everyone present that I HAD to play that part. It was not a request but an order. She thrust the music score into my hands and proclaimed to Ms Ong that the dilemma was settled.

That was not all. She made me sing some ‘jelly bean on the pan’ baby song just to entertain herself. Bah. Something about peanut butter jelly and oogly baby rhymes. All of a sudden she remembered that she had me in mind for the emcee so forced me to write down my name and sign it under ‘volunteer duties’. Well, since when did I volunteer to be 1. Matchmaked with some guy I dunno who is gonna be the emcee with me 2. A frilly-frocked, demure little girl who is gonna announce every item for the performance??? My goodness! The mere thought of having to wear a white LONG dress is enough to make me drop dead. I suggested that I could wear my new, long white top with pretty silver sequins and my coffee coloured skirt. My dear teacher insisted on a white dress or a white top and black skirt. ARGH. What on earth did I get myself too?

My teacher is certainly a master at making me stressed. She got Ms Ong to sit in for my lesson and Ms Ong was listening to my horrid Sonata in A with trills that had 3 notes instead of 4, Gigue that was played in 3/4 instead of 6/8 and Burlesque that drove everyone mad not only because it was a crazy song itself but also because I kept playing wrong notes. My teacher is so driving me nuts. Can I scream???

PSL interview went well and it was better than I expected. I hope for a pleasant response. Dummy was in the holding room with me and she kept giving me dirty looks. She frowned at anyone who made noise. Humph. The interview was held in a group and there were 2 other girls whom I do not know. I was a little nervous at first but soon gained confidence after the first question. My answers were much shorter than the rest coz I tried to answer to the point. Mrs Wee was one of the interviewees and she was nice to me. Yay. MAG is happy. Whoo hoo.

""Love Story"

We were both young, when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts-
I'm standing there, on a balcony in summer air.

I see the lights; see the party, the ball gowns.
I see you make your way through the crowd-
You say hello, little did I know...

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles-
And my daddy said "stay away from Juliet"-
And I was crying on the staircase-
begging you please don't go...
And I said...

Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess,
It's a love story, baby, just say yes.

So I sneak out to the garden to see you.
We keep quiet, because we're dead if they knew-
So close your eyes... escape this town for a little while.
Oh, Oh.

Cause you were Romeo - I was a scarlet letter,
And my daddy said "stay away from Juliet" -
but you were everything to me-
I was begging you, please don't go-
And I said...

Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess.
It's a love story, baby, just say yes-

Romeo save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel.
This love is difficult, but it's real.
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess.
It's a love story, baby, just say yes.
Oh, Oh.

I got tired of waiting.
Wondering if you were ever coming around.
My faith in you was fading-
When I met you on the outskirts of town.
And I said...
Romeo save me, I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting, for you but you never come.
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think-
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said...

Marry me Juliet, you'll never have to be alone.
I love you, and that's all I really know.
I talked to your dad -- go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby just say... yes.
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh.

'cause we were both young when i first saw you
