Today there was a short band meeting. Germaine SMS me about it yesterday. Funny thing, my seniors and I are supposed to be one section but they never inform me about practice dates, changes in dates/time or anything. So today after dismissal at 1pm, I went for lunch at a coffee shop I've never been to with Germaine, Serene and Chong Jin. There, Germaine said that Yi Hui said Shi Mei told her it was a sad thing. I thought that maybe the competition trip to Genting or the performance was cancelled. By the time we reached back in school, it was about 2pm already. Luckily we reached before Ms Ong did. True enough, Ms Ong said the Genting trip was cancelled... :( All because of the instability in Malaysia -.- She said it was a last-minute decision to cancel the trip. Last Thursday, she asked Liang Rong to get the consent forms from her table and distribute them on Friday. But on Thursday night, Mr Lim (don't know id she means the principal or the other band teacher, I think it's the principal) called her and told her to cancel the trip. However, she said that we might be going to Australia in June next year for their Band Fest! :D But she said they don't know if they are going to let next year's Sec 4s (this year's Sec 3s) go because they have 'O' Levels :( We still have our year-end concert in the new school auditorium! Ms Ong said it can only seat 385 people so if we sell tickets, we could only sell 385 so she suggested the hall to him. Sell tickets? I thought there are some bands coming already, according to Mr Yeo. There goes my first competition...I think my first competition will be next year's SYF :) We'll be the first aesthetics group to use the auditorium for a performance if we're using it! :D But only aesthetics groups have performances in the first place, so in other words, we'll be the first to use it! Yay! If we use the hall, I think we'll also be the first to use it because it's during the school holidays :D The meeting was 5 minutes only. After that, while walking to take my bag, I saw Darryl, Cliff and Mabeline (the only band members in 3R1) walking to the AVA Room (venue of the meeting) haha! It's already over when they were dismissed. I wonder if Darryl will still wish me happy birthday twice now that the trip which is after my birthday is cancelled, haha. Maybe there'll be band practice on 24 November. I think he will wish once because I don't think he will forget. Bye!
