Why are Suky and Darryl both not online when I'm looking for them to talk to? :'(
I don't think you'll wanna read this.
Band practice today. I don't like today, especially practice time. Surprised ah? It's not surprising, expected. I ate with Serene and her friend. Actually I didn't eat with Serene because I had to go take height and weight and by the time I came back she finished. Then her friend came soon. I don't know her name though I talked to her, haha. Chong Jin came later with the scores that she just photocopied. I did a few Maths questions with the help of Serene and Chong Jin. At about 2 or 2+ Kevin sat at the table behind mine at the canteen. (I was there for so long, today do work there instead my usual spot) I saw a blue basketball with his bag. Never seen a blue one with a red line o.o I went up at about 2.15. Oh by the way, Kevin was doing his work at the canteen eh! I think Maths also, same as the one Serene was doing. I think he came slightly late or just on time, not sure, didn't check.I helped Kevin set up stand again while he went to wash mouthpiece. And I said "here" for him during attendance while he was out too :) Andrew and Rebekah were drenched as it was raining... Chong Jin gave out the photocopied scores, have to help my juniors keep. Andrew conducted warm ups today, 2nd time only, for an assistant student conductor, haha. Chromatic Low Tones and Total Training. I had to keep stopping. After warm ups we tuned. I was FLAT. I pushed in the tuning slide all the way. Result of the metal in my mouth la, huh? Mr Yeo and Ms Leong were both not coming so they asked if Mr Yu was coming. He came today, didn't check what time. He did tuning again, I couldn't get the high B flat. Then I really cried. I just bend down and rest on my Trombone and cried so hard I was shaking like quite obviously and my hand and face was so wet. Kevin took some time to notice, probably he too tall cannot see or what la. Think he bend to see if I was crying then he turn behind to tell Rebekah, she asked why and he said he don't know. Mr Yu asked all the brasses to play and I didn't get up to play. But he probably didn't see me cos if he did he would call me. Then Rebekah and Mavis came beside me and asked me to go out but I was sobbing so hard I didn't feel like moving, so I sat there a while more. Mr Yu asked all the brasses to play B flat again, but this time he did notice, probably cos Rebekah and Mavis were there. He asked what happened and I can guess that the whole band turned around. I can hear Chen Hua call Kevin. Then I guess that he gestured to me as a form of asking why. I only know this slacking band too well. They told me to go out again, and only then I did. I felt like I was disturbing them by being there :S They went out with me and Mavis sat at the table with me, my favourite spot now I've also cried there. I took a few minutes to stop and stabilise. She asked if I wanna go home and rest, but I still went back in for practice. I think they thought it was because my mouth pain. It is, but it's my heart pain that I cry for. It's more painful than my mouth. Mr Yu asked if I was ok when I went back in.
It's ok, I don't mind them knowing I cried. It's the 4th time. Twice a year, hopefully never again, especially in Sec 4, because that's SYF year. Then we did Big Bands Playing Folk Songs. Then we did sectionals. My favourite spot was used by Rebekah and Mavis, practising on the table with their sticks. So we were beside them. We only practised that song. Kevin also needed help on a bit of rhythm on page 2, haha. When Tutor came, he asked if I had any problems, want to share. I thought for a while how to phrase it, in the end I just said "Heart pain lor". Then he asked us to play from bar 67 Skip To My Lou. (Hahaha, remember Wednesday?) I managed to play all the way till the end although a few wrong notes, yay. He asked Kevin why his rhythm so bad, I think he said his mouth pain so sometimes when he try to play to high notes no sound come out. Huh? Tutor asked why I suddenly put braces and whether it's I want or my parents want. He said I was improving on my sound then now got this he don't know how to teach already. I thought he would know, because he's a tutor? What will Suky say if I tell her this? Kevin slacked after we played together to the end. I think we didn't finish the last few bars eh, forgot. I also slacked, sorry. Mavis came out of the room and asked if I saw the other Rebekah. (She always says the other Rebekah when she asks me, haha) I said no. Then later Rebekah came out of the room, Kevin and me look at each other like ?? Then I told her she came out of that room. ?! Haha!
We went back in to combine. Thanks Germaine for asking and consoling me. Rebekah wasn't inside and Mr Yu asked where she was. Mavis said she was outside resting cos she not feeling well. Why everyone not well today, esp Rebekah and Rebecca, one physically one emotionally. Later he asked for band leader, and asked for her name. Haha, expected response "Oh, 2 Rebecca". What time's practice supposed to end, why teachers say 5.30 when we know it's 6? Mr Yu has a different way of ending practice. Mr Yeo and Ms Leong end after the whole band play together. Mr Yu ended after he asked one section to play, and they never play properly. Supposed to be after they play properly but he knew it was gonna take forever I think, so he just ended. Today I asked Kevin to wash bowl, very long since he did huh? And thanks Serene for asking if I'm ok. When we keeping instruments Kevin wanna open the cupboard door then he tell Jaslyn 头 so many times, ask her to watch her head. Then when he open then she shock and ah! or something -.- She didn't know he was talking to her until that happened. Haha! I checked the 2 bronze bass trombones cos I wanna bring back, so see which one nicer. When Kevin came in again I said just now he tell her 头 she don't understand eh. Then his right hand point to his left hand and he say 头是这个 WAHAHA! I took BT2. I couldn't fit my file into my bag so I cleverly took out the pockets of the songs I wanna practise. Argh, Jaslyn at first said she wanna bring back then later don't want. Kevin say too loud he can't stand it, haha. I play in the room and close the door even. No need to sign out cos the system changed. Serene was supposed to make a card to write the serial no. and she sign but not made yet. Bye bye...
