Anxiety is a disease that can kill.

Since the annual Humanities Week is just around the corner, it is necessary for Potassium to practice hard for Dikum. So far, the singers - or rather, the "songers" - are already good. As for the instrument people (we have no cool name), that's a very different story. ^_^;

I'm really nervous. I still tend to make mistakes since I always get lost once the "songers" start singing. I can barely hear myself playing and my confidence dramatically decreases. The fear of messing up is overwhelming.

Ada and the others want to remake my instrument again. Apparently, the Activade bottles produce high notes. We wouldn't want the "songers" to sing in falsetto thoughout the entire song. Have mercy on their vocal chords!

Another problem: Aldrich is supposed to play the same instrument as I. The leaders fear that the audience won't be able to hear my playing if I were alone. Even though the thought of playing alone still bothers me, I am infinitely bothered with the fact that Aldrich and I are not synchronized whenever we try playing together. So much for making life easier.

Good luck to Potassium. Good luck to me.

Desperation?

For the sake of doing (and submitting) my STR RRL, I have decided to stay at my grandma's house.

Not too desperate yet, huh?

Since I was too impatient to wait my cousin (he lives with my grandma) to come home from school to help me connect my laptop to the internet, I barged into his bedroom and (miraculously) managed to establish a connection.

Desperation? Aye.

Thank goodness he didn't get mad at me. Or at least he doesn't seem to be mad.

I should obviously finish my STR RRL now but here I am, blogging. Hurrah for procrastination!

I'm sleepy (again).

Is anyone willing to help this CSS dunce? For some reason, there’s something wrong with the codes from the layouts in Blogskins. Either that or I haven’t done something that I should do to the codes.

Potassium, well, less than half of Potassium had Dikum practice at Courtney’s place today but Pisay was the original meeting place. For obvious reasons, I decided to ride in Oona’s car. John John came along. We stopped by McDo for a while to eat breakfast (the second one for me [yes, I am a glutton]).

Practice was supposed to end at 1700 but Oona and I decided to leave at 1630. She still had to do the Chemistry lab reps and I still had to go somewhere.

And I just got home.

And I haven’t done any of my homework yet.

And I’m already sleepy.

So I’ll just sleep now and I’ll cram my homework tomorrow.

It's a good plan, isn't it?

And yes, that's a rhetorical question.
