<3 ac band. :)

concert oh concert.

oh concert is in a few hours time? i cant sleep!! i'm too egg-cited to sleep. haha. i have this surreal and weird feeling. not nervous or scared that i'll play wrong notes or things like that.. i just know this concert is gonna be STINKING GOOD LA! the last few pracs have been good. i'm quite amazed how we improved so much in a few days time only. so, now, we'll play music. my last one with the one and only band i love. :)

and, edwin made me tear with his speech. -_- people better not make me cry later ok! i will look so unglam laaaa.

i just dont want to bog people down with my problems.

yesterday, i feel like i want to play music forever.

let me recount my days. these few days has been a blur of events.

sat was band the whole day as usual. came early to think if i should just ask outrightly if i'm going swiss or not. was supposed to gym but somebody pangseh me. haha. combine sectionals in the morn. we still sound bad. when the hell are we gonna sound nice? rained so ordered in pizza. and i gave them the wrong number. haha. accidentally! band ended and i finally decided myself i will not go. went back to grandma's. missed her. overnight there and tried to do my articles. but.... i got defeated by fatigue and laziness. :(

mon band again. with bbq at night. i relieved my childhood days with hopscotch and swings. so fun. FUN. i just went spastic la. ate alot of rubbish and cancerous food. went home a happy girl after a long time not laughing that hard. and met a gentlemanyly ang moh who let me pass. haha.

tues was band again. my eyes felt funny. it just wont open. my throat feels scratchy. i kept coughing. 1st recording in the morn. i felt like a recording artist. hahaha. but on a serious note. i felt quite nervous. went for lunch at ljs. without edwin again but with the tubas. sectionals and dwayne came up with the 'kaan' way. *rolls eyes. corrected some parts and went for second recording. had no more energy but had to go on anyway. tried to play to my best ability. and listened to the recording again. we sounded somewhat better but nowhere near the swiss comp standard. haiz.

today, woke up at 6 to jog but weather was good to me. it rained so i continued to sleep. woken up by irna's msg. lips felt so numbed. like bee stung-ed. went to sch to do costume stuff with seha and study math with irnananana alil bit. but nowhere near progress. integrate my brain please.

sometimes its easier just to cry yourself to sleep rather than let it all out. its no use to be sad. lets face it.

anyway, i shall continue with my work now. this is the third week of holidays? omg. oh yes, i found a spongebob blogskin. should i change? hahahahaha.

chiao.

work it!

ok, i'm 'recovering' i guess. whatever.

i am soooooo wayyyyy behind my schedule. danggggg. *slaps myself. mon was supposed to be gp and math. BUT i am ssooo 'hardworking' (digressed), i cleaned my room, the house, vacuumed and arranged all my stuff plus! i washed the mcs costumes. gahhh. pure hardwork. when i grow up, i'll hire a maid or just send it to the laundry. seriously. i'm not going to toss and scrub and wring clothes dry. by then, i was too tired, so, when i reached my study table to read my gp compre, i fell asleep. aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

this cant continue. like seriously. when is your prelims shaheera dear? YOU DONT HAVE TIME OK!!! procastinator, digressor, work!

alright. today's band prac was ok, i guess. considering dr lee wants to move on from intonation but he cant because we are not in tune.and he started scolding us and all. and then, we did intonation and viola! fuh yooo!! we were so intune. i was smiling alll the wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. aaaaahhhhhhhhh. and dr lee's mood suddenly changed. haha. i was thinking, too bad i cant experience this in swiss with the rest. but oh well. whatever. move on!
and my rthym is still so sucky. my basics are like ----. BAD. :( my rthym since sec 1 days are like gone case. haiz. I AM SO GONNA PRACTICE with the metronome. UNTILL I GET IT RIGHT. DAMN. and oh sm 3 mouthpiece please make my life easier! i'm like huffing and puffing all the way. rawr. but its good..in a way.
oh i gymed today.:)))) now, my thighs are like.....ouuuchhh.

ok. gp and math now. by tonight. by tonight. by tonight. by tonight. by tonightttttttttttttttttt.
chiao.

i'm feeling so excited as well as nervous for this concert. so many conductors and friends are coming to watch us. gosh.. i hope i dont screw up any of my exposed parts. oh my god.. this is sooo scary! oh yes, mr wong is going to conduct barker and they are playing ammerland. ahhh that song is so nice, they better bring justice to it! i'll be watching backstage! haha. oh yeah.. i'm clueless about concert gifts. and,and.. i finally sold all my tickets!!! gosh.. it was damn hard.. i had to make myself so thick skined.. forcing them to buy my tickets.. hahaha.


thursday's practice ended so late that i got blasted by mum. i was still in school at 10.30pm. how about that. i made so many mistakes, gggrrrr.. i'm so angry with myself. and i'm out of tune! but when i tune going up and down scales, i'm on the green light. howhowhow... mon's the concert already!!!

tmr's practice will be in acjc. i'm so glad we need not move to acsi... with instruments and all, heavy la. will be meeting all those little boys again. ah, sometimes they give me headaches... hesh.

good friday is really a good day to rest, considering that next week will be tough, band concert, fun o rama and not to forget to continue studying. i have to get ready to get balsted by teachers again for my terms . ggrr. i'm just so angry with myself. so angry.. that i cant say it explicitly.

i really HOPE fun o rama will be fun. esp when its with my class. i dont know..


suddenly, the memories of last muse came rushing back to me. :) oh the festive overture that we played. hehe. and the phantom of the opera plus the standing ovation that the euphos got aft it. i really want this muse to be so much better that last years!

chiao.

i told them to squeeze because i couldnt capture all of them. and so, look at their 'squeezed' faces.haha, my juniors..

ehmmm.. my dear section mates. (oh no, i look fat!)

told ya i was gonna have a blast. haha. but the saturday's practice started out badly. and dr lee lectured us. hhhmm.. i played badly too. its been quite a long time since i've practised due to terms.

but, had fun during section lunch and dinner. omg.. my section is totally crazy. my cheeks went numb and tears of joy ran down my cheeks from all the laughing. luch was at anchorpoint kfc and took alot of photos with sheree's cool and funky camera. hahaha. dinner was at holland v. i think we were so loud that there was this man who sat near us and said, 'this is how jc students behave..' like whatever man. then its alumni concert. oh, THEY WERE SO GOOD LA. the solos were outstandingly good. and the repertoire were excellent. i felt like standing up and start dancing during the encore. but of course, i'm still not out of my mind yet. aft concert, haha, irna met her idol. HAHA. i still laugh when i remember how it happened.

so, yesterday's prac was musically excellent. we improved i guess. dr lee said, good! very good. ahh, how difficult it is to make him happy with our practices. that, without edwin. isey man.. but i still get pick on. first because i didnt play together with the tenor sax during armenian. then second was when i was tying my hair. gandalf made me feel like i ran 2.4km. gosh, all that running notes. but yea.. i played it! my lips felt like it was going to drop off anytime soon. aft that marvelous band prac, i was going down the stage and guess what, i slipped and fell on the stage. aahhh, how embarassing is that. erm, yes, together with my eupho. hahaha. aft that went to keep my eupho and guess what again, i hit my head into the horn's bell's casing. ouch laaaa. i am so clumsy or what :(

band camp on thurs!!! wwweeeeeeeeeee!!!
