OMG OMG GUESS WHAT???
I GOT IN FOR GUITAR ENSEMBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow I'm so dang happy! The happiest I've ever felt since sec 1. XD I'll get to learn guitar! And leave NCC Air (sorry for my platoonmates I really love them tho)! And do something I'd LOVE to do for 3 years!!!!!!
Yay!
And maybe I can take the guitar to China and play some songs for my grandparents. That'll make them happy~
Yippeee!!!

So I guess I should update you guys on what happened DURING the trial and how I suspected the teacher wanted me in the first place.
Okay so...

Me: Um...Jiang Su.
Teacher: Oh Jiang Su - a pretty place I remember!
Me: O_O
Teacher: Okay so do you have any stage experience?
Me: Uh yea. Crosstalk in P5, then another crosstalk in P6, P6 graduation skit, P5 representative speech, P5 Nan Hua school concert, P6 Mooncake Festival skit, P6 Nan Hua 90th Aniversary concert at Victoria theatre.
Teacher: O.O (can't remember what he said) Hmm then what's your CCA in P6?
Me: Choir and Chinese Society - but I quit choir midyear.
Teacher: Hmm okay. What about sec 1?
Me: Um NCC Air.
Teacher: NCC Air? Hmm okay... (writes something down)
[ Another chunk of interview questions, forgot them alr ]
[ Then the rhythm test, clapping, singing, pitching... ]
Me: Actually I tried for Guitar in sec 1, I really wanted to get in, but I didn't manage to.
Teacher: Oh you tried for Guitar in sec 1?
Me: *Nods*
Teacher: And you didn't get in. Why?
Me: Uh because the teacher asked me that...to play Guitar we need to have long fingernails, but we can't leave long fingernails for piano, so she asked me if that would affect my piano. At that time I was still considering whether or not to continue piano so I just said...uh...it might. Yea. (Actually I was thinking "How do I know")
Teacher: Actually you don't need to stop piano to learn guitar.
Me: Yea, but the....(Can't remember what I said)
Teacher: Ok show me your hand? Put your hand on the table.
Me: *Puts hand on the table*
Teacher: *Points with pen at my finger and fingertips) You know your fingers are very good for guitar-playing? (He said something about tone etc but I dunno)
Me: *Smiles*
Teacher: *Smiles back* Okay, we shall let you know the results later. Thank you!
Student Helper: Thank you! *Smiles*
Me: Thank you, bye!

Well yea. Basically a few weeks ago I had a dream whereby I was looking at this bunch of Guitar ppl in a room holding guitars and there was white mist all around, and I felt very very very happy and confident. Then I suspected that I was gonna have something good in this Guitar trial.
