♫♪I'm a happy 1st Trombone!!♪♫
Yo! 27 July Tuesday band practice. Physics SPA was postponed so I could be less late for band yay! It's impossible not to be late because lesson ends at 2.30pm and practice starts at 2.30pm -.- and if there was SPA it'll end at 4pm -.- I saw Mr Yeo and Mr Yu at the canteen just after I finished lunch. Band was fun today! :) Mr Yeo said our MOE band fund's been approved so we'll get new instruments. Trombone will get except for Benjamin his bass trombone is in good condition though it's not younger than mine I think. But I don't want to change! I want 153671! But we need new trombones, not enough tenor trombone with trigger, 2 only. We had a new piece, Highlights from High School Musical. And Suky came! :D Last Saturday she didn't come and today would be her last time coming because school is starting for her... :( So she won't come every week anymore... So sad. I will miss her. Anyway, back to band. I think my sight reading for this piece is not bad. But! I made some mistakes on the notes which I didn't notice until Suky told me. But anyway, Mr Yeo said our mission today is rhythm and we can play wrong notes, haha. My rhythm is not bad. The wrong notes that I play is... pardonable I guess, haha. Because it's all F then one E. And next page all C then one B so I didn't really notice that it's a different note :S Today Sec 1s played with us too, but I think the ones playing is actually the Main Band only, haha. We ended earlier today! Mr Yeo conducted today! It's been such a long time since he conducted Main Band! Mr Yu went around listening to sections. Suky's band came in 3rd in SIBF and got gold, whoo! After band, I tricked Mr Yeo into finding his own belated birthday card. I said the bells got problem (actually that's the chimes, oh my gosh!) Mavis said percussion got a lot of place can hide the card and Gabriel hid it in the chimes which is covered, haha! Then Mr Yeo went there and took out the card, haha! After dismissal I walked to a different bus stop with Suky, because there also can take bus to the library stop where I change bus. First time take bus 18, haha.
Friday 30 July was sectionals as usual. Ah yes! On Tuesday the Sec 1s joined Main Band already, because the conductors said they have to come on Friday. It's about the same time as my batch joined... Friday people came late again as usual. Damn pissed off, committee members even! (not including those who were buying things for games day). I haven't been to that small sectionals room for a long time... and I don't like it -.- so much echo. I let them self practice for a while, then I take the section. Benjamin's rhythm is still... I don't know what. He can't count. Ding Cong's not bad, he practiced the whole song already! And his rhythm mostly correct except a bit which I also found harder at first. Quite good :) It's nice to have someone who can play with me correctly :) and I miss Kevin... :( Speaking of Kevin, on Wednesday the school announced that some people took part in accounting competition. Kevin's group came in under top 30, Serene's group champion! Check out school website for July :D I miss Kevin... :( Sectionals was ok other than Benjamin. I think he has to learn himself because it's impossible to teach him. Then we had a brass combined with Dion conducting. It's damn sucky because cannot hear and where's the melody? -.-
Yesterday games day. It's supposed to be only once a year not 2 -.- Anyway, fun was fun bit more tiring, haha. I'm team leader of Team 3: Yi Wen, Yii Jie (birthday girl!), Vanessa, Leon, Gabriel, Zi Yuan and Syamsul but ZY didn't come. Exams coming they still have what games day -.- There'll be no practice until 20 August! :( I will miss you Trombone! And Band!
