*croak*

on friday morning i coughed all the way to school on the train - one of those hacking coughs sans phlegm.

i reached the office, burst through the door, saw YJ, and greeted exuberantly, 'WOW YJ YOU'RE HERE! GOOD MORNING!!'

except that it came out several pitches lower, and like this, 'w-- yj *croak* -ere! ---- muhningg!'

yj laughed.

i was horrified. i sound like a transvestite!!! and i have to lead worship during kids cell! GAH!!!

---

at night, at kids cell i attempted to burst through the door again. i failed terribly, and only elicited responses like, 'vivien jiejie u sick ah?' or 'vivien jiejie you sound like a man!! hahahahahaha.'

wow, thanks kids. -_-

but my voice came back for a brief moment when singing 'we're together again'. and so i sang my heart out... the transit from that song to the next song was pretty terrible though.

as i was singing the first line, i suddenly felt aileen kicking me really hard.

i blushed and stopped, while she tried to control her '?!?!' face and led the tune for the next worship song.

apparently i slipped a few keys and it was really low. all the kids were at the right key though.

ahhhhhhh so embarrassing ahhhhhhhhh... T_T

and then that alvin!!!!

i popped over his place for some guitar hero-ing, but before that i bounced into his mom's room and croaked, 'hai~auntie~~'

she turned around looking amused and asked, 'what happened to your voice??'

'haha, shout at alvin too much.'

alvin interjects, 'eh, no la! she's taking hormone pills.'

!!!!

i am really perturbed by not being able to worship. and having to clear my throat halfway through a line all the time. or coughing. geez. :(

and then, cell today. good grief, there aren't many of us, so i tried singing but grid, jess, can and lammy's chirpy/beautiful voices were all drowned out by MY TERRIBLE CROAKING AND ZHAO SIA.

it's terrible, terrible!! :(

God i want my voice back! i promise not to stuff my face with expo's mac and cheese and shepherd's pie anymore!
