Hey Seniors & Juniors.
The like most randomnest, most craziest, most whatever-you-call-it person is here.
(Yes like who is the craziest and gayest person in the section LA)

Concert is on monday, and can you believe my rotten luck! Playing two solos from both Portraits Of Spain AND the infamous cursed opera, La Forza Del Destino.

I have a feeling it's my last concert, next year is SYF and stuff. Or maybe not, next year is exchange programme (shout HOORAY at this part).

I am S-T-R-E-S-S-E-D. Infact I'm on the verge of depression!
Selling tickets is not easy, and the worst part is ordering 6 tickets only to have 3 people back out in the end. Yes, if you're wondering how frustrating it is, it can get so bad it makes me want to shave a sheep bald.

Sec 1s work hard ok?
Can tell you guys are improving already! That's great to know, and it's kinda like inner pride to see you grow up in more than just one way.
Too bad I only watch you for 2 years though, and Yvette stop spoiling me with offers for chocolates! :D
Oh ya both of you know what to do on that night ah. WINK WINK.

Wish me luck, and uncurse me from the cursed opera, Spain me to the Portraits of Spain!

TING AND JOY:
ROBYN HARDLY SAYS THIS. BUT ROBYN SAYS, ROBYN HEARTS YOU LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS.

THANK YOU :D
