Distracted

Today's two lectures were a flop. I was physically there, but my whole mind was filled with FYP-presentation. The main reason was because there was a date mix-up on my moderator's part; and in the end instead of presenting on Thursday (I initially even thought everyone was presenting on Friday); I have to present my poster on Wednesday morning instead! That's like a whole 24 hours before what I expected. And I haven't prepared properly yet, Q&A and all. T___T

So I wasted 4 hours in lecture thinking about FYP 80% of the time. It was miraculous how I even managed to take down the notes I took. Sigh. But at least I have a nice poster! Because Jon spent hours helping me with the design. Thanks Jon! Thanks Tirza on the step-by-step guidance on how to print too. The printing lab was a horror to behold today, queue and chaos. Thankfully I didn't have to wait long. Was really impressed how Yvonne who was working there kept her cool all through.

On a happier note, I joined worship team in Choir last Sunday, and I'm playing piano for GLCC the first time this Sunday! Actually I plan to join worship team after I graduate, but they had an empty slot for pianist next week, so Jon recommended me. Public singing in Choir is not really my thing, because I have a static facial expression. But I guess these things come with training. It was not easy singing on stage as it was very, very, cold; and my legs hurt because I was standing the wrong way (I have very bad posture but had to stand with good posture on stage.) But service always comes with sacrifice, and that is what makes service sweet. I loved the choir. I think I might join again to sing next time around.
