the usual itch bites i get frm mosquitoes or whatevas lasts for probably less than an hour..but these bites have stayed on since yesterday..a new species of itch causers. It's like py's one when she'd camped and there were so many..they looked like dat..and its not just one but probably bout 50 of em round my body.

Yea and today..we went to the swarmi home where the old folks were...we performed (singing)and it was sheer madness when we were practising before we set off. Its like a volunteery work thingy. The music was blasting and evryone tried to sing..Luke was singing his throat out and for some reason he was gleefully smiling like some bozo the whole way through..den he goes conducting and standing in front of all of us when the singing goes on..while laughing to himself at the same time..I cldnt help feeling mortified. the practise was pretty fun..evryone was lafffin and havin a gr8 time..yea surprise surprise..my class has neva been reli spontaneous all the time..but there was a change today. Matilda's in the chinese orchestra team..she's fourth in the nation for her guzhen skills. guzhen's like a chinese harp..but it lies horizontally on some kind of stand compared to the english harp. She played the guzhen for me to hear when we got into the CO room..and it was awesome. She plays like a professional.
Neway in the old folks home..the CO members from our class..9 of em played their instruments..we thot they'd like it so we arranged this since we reli didnt noe wat to perform for em..and den we sang the song "i dream" and another song..ive forgotten what the title is..its reli long..and den we had an interaction time with the old folks..and there was this indian man who kept shouting somethin..somethin we dont know and luke just stood there not knowin what to do..Luke's funny. but we were mostly just standing around wonderin what to do..im not so sure of any dialect..so im not sure how i was gona talk to em even though i wanted to..so in the end..i spent my time chatting with matilda bout 'Plankton' (our name for this guy...) and we kept goin on and on chattin till we could go back home or school or whereva we like..mostly went back to school cos there's a Parents Tchers Meeting goin on later where evryone has to come...so evryone was like walkin in the same direction..but i went home cos there was like 40 mins more..and so now im here...and its just a few mins more b4 i have to go and ive realized mom and dad isnt home they're still at work. This is crazy..i cant contact my father..he's probably lecturing rite now forgetting tht he's got this. and mom..im not even sure where she is now.
