Time now is 11.30pm. I just got home from school. For the past couple of weeks, I've been staying back in the wardrobe room working on my blazer project, which is a week overdue by now. Seeing that I usually stay till past midnight, the most recent being till 3am, today is considered early. It comes with a reason though.
At approximately 10.29pm (my cell-phone was right in front of me), while I was on the sewing machine working on the collar, I heard a couple of light thuds from the floor above me. I ignored it, thinking it's sounds from elsewhere. After five minutes went by, I started to realize that the thuds were still audible. I thought it was the janitor so I peeked into the hallway to check if his cleaning cart was there or not. It usually is there when he cleans, but it wasn't there this time round. Of course, it's a Sunday night, he doesn't work on a Sunday. My heart skipped a beat. Then I thought, maybe it's some dancers, though I couldn't come up with a logical reason for them to be in school especially since the term is already over. My conclusion, it couldn't be them. You just know where I'm headed next. It all got worst when I remembered what a senior told us last time.

When he was working in the wardrobe till late quite a while ago, he heard bouncing from above. He knew something was amiss. He said, "Stop it". And the bouncing stopped.

By then, I was panicking inside but trying hard to remain rational. It didn't take me long to realize that the thud sounded exactly the same each and every time. At when it became even more audible, I sensed something brushed by from the corner of my eyes. That was when I stopped, packed up and left immediately.
You may say that I'm hallucinating, that I'm too tired, or that I'm crazy. Even I think I'm crazy too, but I don't want to take any risks. I was alone, and it was late. That's that.
My school building used to be a Pharmacy College in 1885. Rumour has it that the wardrobe room was either a experimentation laboratory or a morgue at that time. Either way, I'm not sure when I can step back into the wardrobe again, alone and at night.

That aside, I had my last exam yesterday (Yes, a paper on Saturday) My exam was all crammed into a week, and it definitely was tough trying to find time to study right after my show at school ended. I was the Box Office Manager of Shakespeare: As You Like It. The night before Opening Night, my beloved ACER passed on me, along with all my data for Box Office. It was brutal spending the full night going through every single ticket request again. But in general, show went well.
So now, I'm left with my blazer, which I'm very excited for because it fits me perfectly and it was made from scratch. And when I say scratch, I mean drawing out the pattern on paper, transferring it to fabric and piecing them all together, with lining. It will be perfect.
As for work work, it's going well. I'm going to work my 40hours max. while I can during the holidays. Just this week, we had a Staff Christmas Dinner at Roy Thomson Hall. A very sumptuous meal indeed, with lots of alcohol and dancing to end the night. Adios.

JERSEY BOYS is the best thing ever ♥
With my brothers, Mel and Yiwen, we went to watch JERSEY BOYS: The Story of Frank Valli & The Four Seasons last night. The whole performance, their singing, their dancing, right down to the staging technique of making us 'backstage' was just awesomeeeeee! And now their songs are stuck in my head, it's very addictive.
Here's the London Broadway cast:


The songs: Sherry, Walk Like A Man, Big Girls Don't Cry, Bye Bye Baby.

Big Bang's very awesome Japanese single.

I'm down with a fever and cough. Not coughing badly, but you get the idea. And of all times when I have two mid-terms. Managed to sit for one mid-term today, only cause I wasn't allowed a make-up for it, and I did it isolated out of class. I'm hoping to reschedule tomorrow morning's mid-term, especially since it's at 8.30am but I haven't heard back from my prof. Crossing fingers.

That aside, Halloween just passed and it was well spent down at Church St. albeit the cold temperature, daylight savings is on (so it's 13 hours difference now guys) and I'm going to watch Jersey Boys this Friday! Exciting, exciting. As for now, I better continue with my notes.

Like me, you'll be fooled by its colours. It's such a sad song for such a cute MV, but I still like it nonetheless (minus the tacky wedding bells opening). I'm close to tears. Favourite the video!

Earlier this week, life was hectic with essay proposals and presentations due. I spent my entire last weekend in the library doing fruitless research on Canadian theatre and gender stereotypes. I had thought it would be relatively easy to find materials on both topics, especially the latter. Little did I know...Praise the lord that that phase is over, though it'll be back to haunt me in two weeks time when the actual essay is due and when my numerous projects are due at the same time. As for now, I can cruise through the week and rest my worn out brain for a little bit.

Lesson of the week: No matter how horrible and shitty and stupid life gets, always know there's hope at the end of the tunnel, or even someone to lift your spirits by mere simple words.
I swear Facebook hates me for having too many photos. I just can't seem to upload them, though I'll keep trying even if it takes forever. I'm 99% done with my first group project, two more to go. One presentation, two essay proposals to be written, and two essays after, and four mid-terms to study for. Even better, I've got work to keep my night life happening. Life's good, for sure. Company meeting now, love.

I'm blogging from my hotel in Montréal now, and it's my last night here before I head back to the big city. Montréal has been amazing, and I honestly don't mind staying here for long. Montréal has impressed me, for the most part. My brothers and I are tired after walking great distances, resulting in blisters and a really sore, flat feet, but it was all worthwhile. For three days, I'd say we did an awesome job covering the whole of Montréal. I won't be able to blog the moment I get back to Toronto cause assignments awaits me, but I'll do soon and also try to get pictures up. As for now, I'm going to rest in my humble abode and prepare for a long ride back home tomorrow.
Au revoir, et bonne nuit.
