Hey! This is Jesmine but there are a thousand and one others out there who calls her Jia Min too! She's (finally) 18 and is more than happy to be showered with gifts on the nineth day of the third month each year. She's currently mugging in Nanyang Junior College with a bunch of cute people in 1002, but she still loves and misses her alma mater, TKGS together with her dearest 4e1 very very much. She ditched her 4-years long CCA, netball, for singing - both in choir and as a soloist (Just don't ask her to sing Don't Cry For Me, Argentina. It's Marisa's new ploy to watch a free show! And I know poor Bren's sick of playing it!) She's been stuck in Alto 2 in choir for a good ol' 5 years while her dearest conductor is still deciding whether to leave her there or transfer her somewhere else, but she takes the performing role of a mezzosoprano as a soloist (and communicate her 3-octave range using her perfect pitch to her rocking friends who in turn gives her nicknames of innate objects such as tuning fork, piano and amplifier. :/) Oops, she nearly forgot to mention that she was a part of the Superwomen(Student Welfare) committee of the Prefectorial Board back in the good ol' TKGS days. She's awesomely proud to be an Latter-Day Saint, and savouring her last year as a Laurel before she gets kicked out of YW. She loves her family and friends to bits, and in her (very little) free time, adores chilling out with her friends, attend concerts, shopping (and window shopping too. Money don't fall from the sky, y'know.), singing, tinkling on the piano, blogging, FBing and there's so much more she'll prolly need a thousand pages for her to fill up her "LOVES&HOBBIES" section. Flowers, cute huggable soft toys, helium balloons and (hand-written) letters and notes are some of her favourite things.♥

PS: I can/can't believe you just spent/wasted 5 minutes of your life reading her introductory speech. Btw, she LOVES people who tag on her tagboard, so do make sure you let her know that you were here! Have an awesome day anyway! (:

I feel liberated. Hang on, that sounds kinda wrong. Haha.

Voice Exam's finally over, and I'm having mixed feelings :D Thank you, everyone, for the well wishes on Facebook/MSN. Haha. I remembered panicking the night before the exam over what I was supposed to wear for the exam cos Lou asked me what was wearing and I said Choir Tee and skirt/jeans and I was asking all the (ex-)/performing arts people I knew who were online. Lol. (In the end, I brought my prom dress!) and fortunately for me, since the candidates I saw there were wearing dresses too! Haha. Well, the exam went pretty alright, apart from the beginning when examiner freaked me out a little by telling that no one took scales. (It was called vocal exercise, btw) and not being to hit the high F from mid G for the willow song. Somehow, when I stepped out of that room, it just felt like I ended my career as a soloist. I miss singing theatre/broadway music badly, I miss the stage presence, I miss everything... What started off as an chore magically transformed into a passion, and I really missed it real bad. Ahhhh! I'll still continue training my voice, since I still wanna continue with choir in JC. Heh. :) Currently listening to With One Look by Glenn Close (From the musical Sunset Boulevard) and I really love the lyrics. Loved the song since I heard Vivien practicing it for her exam. Well, if it wasn't for Don't Cry For Me, Argentina, I could have taken this piece for exam too, but ohwell. With

One Look - Sunset Boulevard

With one look I can break your heart
With one look I play every part
I can make your sad heart sing
With one look you'll know all you need to know

With one smile I'm the girl next door
Or the love that you've hungered for
When I speak it's with my soulI can play any role
No words can tell the stories my eyes tell

Watch me when I frown, you can't write that down
You know I'm right, it's there in black and white
When I look your way, you'll hear what I say

Yes, with one look I put words to shame
Just one look sets the screen aflame
Silent music starts to play
One tear in my eye makes the whole world cry

With one look they'll forgive the past
They'll rejoice I've returned at last
To my people in the dark
Still out there in the dark...

Silent music starts to play
With one look you'll know all you need to know
With one look I'll ignite a blazeI'll return to my glory days
They'll say, "Norma's back at last!"

This time I am staying,
I'm staying for good
I'll be back to where I was born to be
With one look I'll be me!


I managed to get a job! Okay, actually it isn't really a job, it's just taking over KM's job as a tutor, and it starts in Jan! So at least I would have done something productive during the holidays. *wide grin*. But still, I might wanna try to get a job in Dec so that I can earn a little pocket money. Anyone has a flexible job to offer in Dec, please tell meeeeee :D Heehee :)

Bbq later, can't wait yo :D
Xoxo.
