Great! It's all over. And I really mean over, period. This week was one of the most hectic weeks of my life - tests, Family Day and of course, C'est La Vie. In fact, since school re-opened in term 2, I never had a free moment. Harmonica practices 3 times a week, hardly time for any rest, but I do enjoy it because of the time spent with Hui Min and Bel. Luckily, C'est La Vie finished last night! *smiles* Finally, I can see the end of my sleepless nights and "zombiefied" behaviour in the morning.Just came back from Family Day a few hours ago. Our stall was a Haunted House. It was really cool; a flat for sale and people coming to visit it at the reading room - winding corridors, never knowing what will pop out when you turned round the corner, six ghosts all dressed up, ready to scare the daylights out of you and of course, a housing agent to guide you around the flat. I was one of the logistics members, had to wear black and partnered up with Yee Theng to do the scaring. We were supposed to drop a barbie doll attached to a string when people passed by and tickle their legs with a feather duster. It was successful and we made a profit of over $500. Then there was the clearing up and we could go home!Let's talk about C'est La Vie. My family with the exception of Clement went to support me at the concert and to video me - my mum's favourite hobby. The concert was a success, from the fact that many people congratulated me on the good performance. It's music to the ears to hear people saying how they appreciate the performance that you have put in so much effort for. Wei Zi came and hugged me and told me how great the concert was. I've never been up on stage before, this is my first concert and I felt so overwhelmed when people started shouting "encore". I've always been among the ones who were shouting and not in the performers' shoes. Now I know how it feels. I don't know how to hold myself or how to look on stage. Hope I didn't look the wrong way on stage last night. After C'est La Vie, I went to Jack's Place for supper (this time with Clement). But too big a helping in my opinion. Made me super full. I reached home at 11.30pm and felt totally dead beat. I slept at 1.30am after bathing and cutting the white strips of paper for today's use in the Haunted House.I woke up at 5am this morning. So I only slept for like three and a half hours?!So tired.But happy.Everything's over, it's all over.No more Harmonica practices.Lovely.Bye to my insomnia.It's a beautiful day and I'm going to enjoy it to the fullest.
