I love NAS, Concert Band, Trombones and my seniors!!:D
I didn't go for practice on Thursday because I couldn't. Then in the computer lab I kept pulling a long face. That course just wastes time, money and everything. I actually wanted to skip it. I was thinking of asking a teacher and even if the teacher didn't let me go, I still would go. But because the night before, I smsed Darryl to tell him I might not go and ask him if I could skip the course. He said skipping it is like skipping lessons. So after I read his message, I didn't feel uneasy anymore and I changed my mindset. Now I thought that if teacher didn't allow, then I would not go. Seniors have great influence and impact on their juniors. Even if that's not true, it is for me and my seniors. I listen to everything my seniors tell me. I do everything they ask me to.
Band practice today! But Darryl didn't come :( We were supposed to have Sectionals today but we went to the M-Learning Room first. An alumni came today. Her name is Eng Suky and she's my senior! She talked about SYFs and National Band Competitions. She said using Maths, we're expected to get Bronze for SYF next year. After that, we went to set up our instruments. When I was holding my Trombone, Suky kept looking at it and said hi when she walked past me. I just smiled. Then we went for sectionals. I tried playing Majulah Singapura and she said I'm good :D She said my position is correct and the sound is good but the note is wrong. Actually it's not wrong, just that I kept stopping because it's my first time playing it. She said I can reach high C when I'm so small (age).Kevin asked Cai Yan to come today to help me but she didn't help me at all. She helped him. She asked me to face the other side and play because she can't hear me. So I go there and stand and play alone. Taufiq was teaching Jaslyn and her seniors when he turned and saw me practicing alone. Then he asked if I wanted to join them. So I joined them since no one was teaching me. My part is different from theirs. So we practiced together - 3 Euphoniums and 1 Trombone. I don't want Cai Yan to come, I want Darryl to come. I think he's my favourite senior :) Sectionals from 9-10. Break from 10-10.30. 10.30 onwards combined. I was lost during the combined at some parts.
I'm playing 2nd Trombone in Majulah Singapura, same as Darryl. There's supposed to be 3rd Trombone but there isn't the scores so I got 2nd Trombone. We're not playing Trumpet Voluntary anymore :( We were so well-prepared and that's my best so far because it's the easiest.
Again, there'll be Sectionals next Thursday instead of Friday and I cannot go again because of that stupid useless course which is so boring. I need Sectionals! I need Darryl! I haven't played March "Blue Sky" yet. Darryl's coming on Tuesday! :D For Thursday, we're just doing a project with what we've learnt. After I'm done, I'll ask if I can go for sectionals.
I want to say I love/like a particular senior of mine but if I do, it'll be "I love/like (his name)" and it'll sound like BGR but it's not, so everytime I want to say, I have to say I love my seniors, and the meaning isn't the same anymore. That particular senior is Darryl! :) He's the best senior of mine! :) See you on Tuesday Darryl! :)
