when i still have to:
- prac a lot of piano! for choir and my piano exam and YES! i got $90 today, WAHAHAHA =] after comp next wednesday i get the other $90, yayyyyy. and yeah, prac the accompanying piece as well, but i'm pretty ok with it by now, so yay! xDD
- work on this
thing.. hmm yeah, it's pretty stagnant right now, but if i want it done on time, i better start doing it some time *cough cough* and urgh, it'd be bad if i ended up not doing anything, because i've already put in so much effort
preparing to do it. *cough* (yes, if you didn't realise, i'm being secretive! and if you are the lucky person who knows what i'm being secretive about, HAHA, good! but no one else is meant to know XP)
