::powder snow::
Suddenly I feel extremely bored. Did not want to go to sleep even though I have to wake up early tomorrow.
Mentoring yesterday was pretty fun. I am amazed at how the kids can play "Blow Wind Blow" for more than 30 minutes without feeling bored. I only started playing with them 15 minutes later when my friend urged me to. But apparantly I have not outgrown it because I was one of those that contributed to most of the noise in the classroom. It's just natural that I will scream when playing such games.
Thinking of CO makes me lose my appetite, so I ended up drinking a packet of milo and eating a cup of mashed potatoes for lunch. The mashed potatoes [as dispensed by the machine] tasted terrible. It was extremely salty and it gave me headaches. Ok, it was actually the sauce that couldn't make it. The potatoes were still okay. But I still can't help but feel disgusted whenever I am reminded that all these were made from powder and water.
And indeed, there was CO again today. We were having sectionals and the percussion instructor came. The warm-up part was quite ok, except that I couldn't grip the sticks tight enough and they kept threatening to fly out of my hands. The instructor said that he could tell that I had practised. Which is true! Certain unhappy things happened, but it's okay, I believe I will be able to get it right the next time. Anyway, when I was trying to stuff my score into my bag [which was on the floor=had to squat down], my friends started kicking me!!! My gosh! One of them used her foot and the other, being nicer, used her knee. I couldn't even stand up and I fell on my butt. That was the dumbest thing that ever happened to me in CO. But it's fine. I am in a good mood today.
Tuition started late despite the tutor asking us to come 1h30min earlier for the lesson. We ended on time today, but I stayed on with M to do some math problems with the tutor. Apparantly, I have a rather squarish brain that couldn't think really well, which is actually quite sad. I am a left hander, so my right brain should be more powerful. But apparantly, it is not. SIGH. But I was rather hyper today.

Thank you. You are just amazing.
