Hurrah! It was an unprecedented success and it was an absolutely perfect way to showcase the talents of our school (which are numerous I might add). I was completely dazzled by Madhu's performance, she was phenomenal. Hence, I will now give her a standing ovation here in my room lasting 3 seconds only because I am cramping right now. Please excuse me for a moment...........Alright I'm back.
Nikita was cool enough to give me a lift to and back from the State Gallery of Art where the showcase was held and she was flawless with the clarinet, her instrument of hypnotism (haaha, she's gonna murderlise me if she ever reads this), though I was exhausted of all my powers of persuasion before she finally agreed with me. I especially liked the improvised jazz number with Nikita and Vysh on the clarinets, Ajay on the saxophone, Hadi and Mr. Jonathan on the trumpets and, I think(the details are a little blurred, I was drunk on Pepsi 
), a teacher from the elementary school on the organ. The other performances missed out on being my favourites by an infinitesimally fine line, which proves what an excellent evening it was. I will be loading pictures of the artistic extravaganza (hee) on my album soon, so go take a look at how pleasantly neat Nik's hair looked (I mean that).
Mr. Jonathan mentioned on Friday that I should get involved in the school's music scene a bit, an offer which I will consider seriously. And since I'm obviously no longer with my Singapore band (Quixotic - remember the name!), things on the music front have been depressingly mellow for me. I mean it's cool practising Weezers and Moldy Peaches in the deathly quiet of my lair but it would be great to get out a bit. I was a Senior Soprano 2 for three years straight in choir, one of my humble collection of achievements. People back home keep telling me its a shame I'm letting my experience go to waste. But I don't know. I'm on the fence right now. Stay tuned for that decision.
Well, technically, it's Monday morning right now - 1:27 am. And I hope it's going to be a good week, you'll know soon enough. Au revoir, this is Mithrandir (I'm a lass though - my Singaporean pals just like calling me Mithrandir a.k.a. Gandalf) signing off.
P.S. This a random,useless fact that would be an utter waste of what might be 10 seconds of your life (I'm a slow reader) but here it is nevertheless:
In 1765, the sandwich was invented by John Montagu, the fourth Earl of Sandwich, who gave the food its name. The Earl used to order roast beef between pieces of toast for a snack while he was at the gaming tables, it allowed him to keep one hand free to play while he ate.
