(HAHA. Side note, my sis saw this poster and said to me, "Hey, isn't that the name of the concert on Suria last time?!" ZOMG. I didn't even realise myself)
Anyway, I watched a nice movie today with quite a pulling story. And there's nothing I love better than a good story.
It's called Nocturna and it tells the story of a boy named Tim who discovers a world full of creatures that make the night what it is.
I'd have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the interesting character development and plot. The animation was also awesome. Top marks! AHAH.
My favourite character had to be Cat Shephard. (Yes, that's really his name) That big round creature up there surrounded by cats. He's adorable. (:
Well, to understand it, you just have to watch it yourself. Awesome stuff.
Yeah, okay. I should go do something more productive now.

I swear this piece is so damn gorgeous. My heart near melted at the sax part in the beginning. I remember not too long ago I wanted to play the sax like that. (: But I'm still a long way from anything like this, in any way, on whatever instrument. In any case this is still so beautiful, so no matter. Let me just soak in the awesomeness of this piece, thank you very much.
So, nothing too happening going on with me. So yup. Just trying to stay out of trouble. I promise to continue doing holiday homework soon. Lately I can't be bothered with anything more than a little bit here and there. Nibbles, you know. I need to bite into mouthfuls and big chunks, dammit. Big chunks. Yes. Okay.
After so long, I have finally had sectionals with Flora today! Woohoo~ So, I hope we did something useful today. I think we did. Hmm. I think. But thank you anyway, Flora! For helping me. (: Now I realize I need to put my back into practicing. And soon. Which reminds me.
Confirmed pieces include James Barnes' Danza Sinfonica and Beautiful Oregon as well as some other really cool music.
I know some people are coming just because the ticket is cheaper than last time. Cheapo-s. Such awesome people and music are priceless!
So the family's getting together tomorrow and we are going to eat and play games and have fun like families are supposed to at gatherings. So yes, I will look forward to that. (:
AHHH! GORJUS-NESS!
Peace out!
