today, I was busy preparing for my 'O' level retake exams. And........Finally, my 'O' level retake exams had ended!=> Today is the last day of it... I took the last paper, E Math paper 2, today morning from 8.ooam -10.30am. Math paper 1 on 21th Oct, Eng paper 1& 2 on the 21st Oct... This was a LONG battle.
These 'O' level retake exams were important to me, BUT...... I will not forget my friends!
On the 15th Oct, I was invited to attend Shane's piano presentation at his school, Lasalle - SIA Collage of the Arts, which was built at Bugis area.
By right, he should be performing at the basement theater of his school, where the sound system was very good. But don't know what happened, the performance had changed to a classroom last minute and the sound system was not good enough. Before the performance start , Shane brought me to a practice room where the students could have their practice because it was stil for the performance...
There were a few people jamming inside the room already when we entered the room. The one wearing black with a hat in the photo was the box drumer of Shane's performance. I believe that most of the people will feel strange when they hear "box drumer", as everyone know what is drumer but sheldom or may never hear "box drumer". Why I called "him box drumer" and not just "drumer" because the instrument which he would play in the performance was not a drum set but a box drum... What is "Box Drum"?
Box Drum is a customade hollow wooden box with a hole at its back that can produce the sound of Snare and Bass drums! Hahaha.... Amazing, right?
After 20minutes later of waiting, the performance had strated finally and it was fantastic and successful performance.
After the performance ended, we met Share's girfriend for dinner before returning home. We went to the "Long John Silver" fast food restaurant opposite Bugis Junction shopping center, just beside Bugis Street. We ordered the Hari Raya special meal,
there were fish, chicken, prawns, french fires, cheese source, a bottle of F&N cherry etc.... it was delicious. We returned home after the dinner.
I didn't forget the health of my body, I still had a morning run with Chee Han on the 16th Oct (Thu) morning... I saw a few very Cute kittens on my way to East Coast Park. But I didn't see the mother cat, and I had a good run with Chee Han after that...
I would return home straight after the run normally, but I suddenly had a feeling of going to the second-hand shop,Cash Converter, for a walk. When I reached outside the shop, I saw something that made me feel that it was really my lucky day that day. I was a set of drumset cymbals(Hi-hat, Crash & Ride) from the window of the shop, and it was selling for $60 only!!
I had been looking for 2nd-hand drumsets cymbals that were cheap with not bad quality, because new cymbals were very expensive. Unfortunately, it was not a 
easy task, because it was rare that people sold just their cymbals only. My drumset was made in China, and the drums were still alright but the cymbals were really lousy... So I walked to the counter and bought them home.
In the evening, I had SingVOICES practice as usual. I picked up a wallet after the practice when I was on my way home. There were a few membership cards of some shops, a Ez-link card , name cards... etc in the wallet, there wasn't any money left inside it. I decided to send it to the nearest police post, which was the Bedok South Neighbourhood Police Station, to make a police report.
On the 25th Oct, I was invited to Andy & Xuelin's wedding dinner. It was held at Novotel Clarke Quay Singapore (Formerly known as Hotel New Otani), the dinner was served at 7.30pm. It was really a joyful day for this couple.
