some building whose name i forgot..

This is the pub where we had our first lunch in slovakia..

A little sightseeing...
This is st martin's cathedral where we sang for the opening festival...

One of the chapels in st martin's...

some water fountain...

Anyways...we had a rather brief city tour before returning to the hotel where we had our dinner...then choir practice which wasn't exactly good yah...anywayz..after that practice..I was so tired, i immediately fell into comatose when i went back to my room..

day4:
A lot of ppl grounded themselves deciding to rest rather than go out..so, only Mario, Fabian, peter(not our guide!), Joshua, Yu kang, Rachel, Qibin and me went out to rackey our competition venue...our competition venue waz in some old,past communist radio building tht was in a design of an inverted triangle...anywayz..we waited like damn long for mr toh and the teachers and peter(our guide) to negotiate a price and book the competition hall for rehearsal later in the afternoon...to pass the time...we played a retarded game which ended up me suffering most of the punishment..which was to drink Yu Kang's carbonated water...it was a combined effort to help yu kang finish his water too...haha..so after wat seems to be forever...mr toh and gang finally appeared announcing tht we had booked the place and wld come back later in the afternoon for practice..and before we left the building..Mr toh told us to hydrate ourselves..but we did not need to after tht game...
so went back to the hotel..rested for a while then headed down to the hall for practice..which was like err....anywayz..after practice which ended around 5??we headed to st martin's for the opening concert...too bad nobody recorded our singing cos lonesome road was the best lah!! after the concert...we headed back to the hotel nivy for our nite rest before the competition day tml..
day 5:
woke up around 6+...i think the girls wld have woken up by now to do their hair and wat nots...after a short practice...we headed down to our competition venue...after singing a few OOT songs..it marked the end for our part of the competition...ok..pics time..

This is the competition venue...after our competition..

Basses only pic..yes peter..u r a bass...haha..

note where peter's hand is..

after watching some of the other choirs perform..we headed for lunch by ourselves before heading down to st francis cathedral to listen the church singing catagory of the competition..

heres a pic of st francis church..

After that..we headed down the town square where the results were announced....which i missed the announcement of us getting gold cos i was in the toilet and was informed by Nanyang primary sch when heading back to meet the rest of the choir...then qibin and some others tried to con us into believing tht we had silver...retards...anywayz we went for a very short sightseeing after tht..we had to climb up some hill and stairs to reach the top of Bratislava castle...

view from the top...of the hill...

jumping for joy??

p.s..can someone convince QB to set up a blog..so we can view his camera pics sonner??haha...

hiaz..just came back from a tiring day...tuitions from 12 to 2 then 5 to 7..haha..can die sia..but strangely..it gives me time to think abt life..abt my frends..

U noe...i wonder if 30 years down the road, will we still be as close as we are now..will we still enjoy that luxury of each others company..will we still share tht special bond?..haha..i hope so and pray so..well honestly, i feel like i don't really interact much wif my frends...like i rarely hang out as in really hang out wif them..haha...maybe i think too much...thus it is hard for my to picture my frends and i hanging out, eating, playing or even singing wif each other 30 years down the road..haha..i pray tht tht doesn't come true.

The phrase "i love u" is indeed complicated..it strengths as well as weakens..it affirms as well as doubts..no matter is it from frends or lovers..but i just want to say to all my frends: :"i love u" (sounds a bit gay but..yah) from the bottom of my heart and really thank God for his blessing..which is u guys by my side..u guys are my blessings from god...and i believe tht since God blessed me wif such wonderful bonds...i trust tht not only will he not break this special bond but strengthen it..i continue to pray that He blessess and strengthens u all and pray tht u guys will be alright..haha..

haha..told u guys this was an emo entry but it really says wat i feel now..yah..i noe a little out of point but it is really from the bottom of my heart...hope u guys understand haha...WAT?? cannot emo for once ah...haha..

Today was a good day, matters were cleared and the air seems fresh for once. Today was Song yao's birthday so we (sam foo, cheryn, cheryl, qibin, celine, andrea, qimin and me) went to his house to celebrate his birthday. Although i don't know him that well but HAPPY 18Th BIRTHDAY SONGYAO! Anyway, we played pool at his hse, almost died of laughter due to Celine and Cheryl's playing...they make pool so much "interesting".. left song's hse with celine and the rest..leaving qimin and qibin behind..haha...qimin..hope u r alright..haha..
Shit man..mid years r coming and i m not prepared yet..haha..i need god's help man..ok...will post the slovakia trip up soon...
