Hi! Today was Student Learning Festival aka NAS Open House! I'm the only one who wore band uniform... look like China girl! ^_^ But with blazer not anymore. Actually we're supposed to have 2 shifts and I'm supposed to perform because my shift is 9-11am and the performance is 12pm. But Mr Yeo said the 2nd shift some people need to perform if not no melody -.- So, Mr Yeo arranged for me, Qing Ying and Jasmine to stay at the booth for the whole day = no performance for us :( We brought some percussion instruments down for visitors to play...
The band performed before 12pm actually. And we're supposed to perform in the amphitheatre, but it was raining! So we performed at the corridor of the open space amphitheatre instead. I mean, they performed, not we. But, it was raining!!! So hardly any audience. I asked Jasmine and QY to record for me and it looks like the conductors are getting wet. Jasmine said there was thunder, which I heard halfway through the performance video. Poor thing! :( My Band so 委屈... Why do they still have to perform when it's raining there?! Can't they do it elsewhere?! Grrr... Don't let me find out who told us to perform beside the rain.
They were dismissed at 1pm but we stayed till 2pm -.- I shouldn't have brought my trombone down. 委屈了你，对不起. Every time I show off my trombone, whether it's Baby or Taiwan, Liam will say "Your precious trombone..." haha. It's not the first time I show off my trombones to him. Oh but today got to show off to Zames and Jing Wei too! ^_^ I love you Trombone! ^_^ Chong Jin, Filzah and Mavis came back! :D Where's my favourite senior? :( Today was quite boring...but I got a helium balloon! :D Haven't touched one for years.
Hey yo! 今天发生了个很有趣的事。Someone was sleep typing to me! Haha! 还有第三者，可是我不知道到底发生了什么事。The whole incident is just very confusing and funny. 你这样跟我玩会让我方寸无主…… 没关系啦，还蛮好玩的，只是我不明白而已。。。

Yesterday was band exchange programme at our school auditorium with Dunearn Military Band, Greenridge Symphonic Band (both under Mr Yeo too), Teck Whye Concert Band, Woodlands Ring Military Band & Queenstown Concert Band! :D We came at 8am and warm up and practised before they came. They used classrooms to warm ups and Sec 4s brought them here. They all settled down ater 9am. Very full, so some of us had to take their place when they go on stage then when they come back we shift to the next band's place when they go on stage. But our section didn't need, haha. The band leaders drew lots to see who will play first. Liang Rong got last. So 1st: Teck Whye 2nd: Queenstown 3rd Woodlands Ring 4th Dunearn 5th Greenridge 6th Ngee Ann. I'm not sure about the 2nd & 3rd, I think it's like this. First round we play the set piece and our choice piece.Dunearn's choice piece is Pecos Pueblo, the song they played at the exchange at Greenridge Sec. That time we played Novena. Their song's longest, quite good. During Overture No. 1 part B the semiquavers I could hear very clearly, and it's a slur also. So good, they can tongue so fast and it's soft tonguing too. They only got 3 trombonists too, haha. Opposite us, 2 girls one guy and the guy is bass trombonist, haha. So coincidental. I recognise him.
Before we went up, Darryl & CH emptied saliva first in the bowl. We can't keep the bowl on stage. But I emptied on stage before we started haha. Then Darryl look at me. I also did that the day before he never say anything. Shucks, I messed up the first few notes of my melody at B for Overture No. 1 which was so easy! Arghhh! And at A Monmouth Overture our melody somewhere at 112 was messy. I wanted to record but then when I pressed the button the light came on and never record -.- The light has to be on first or else any button will just turn it on -.- i asked Darryl how he played, he said 150 was a success. But 150 is easy... Then he go high 5 CH then CH said "So loud for what? Idiot" -.- After that was break.
Cai Yan was here! Before we started CH said Cai Yan is in the first row but me & Darryl couldn't see her. Chen Hua go put his instrument at my place -.- Then I got nowhere to put mine. Then Cai Yan call me so I just put it beside his which is a bit blocking the way. So sweet, she gimme present! ^_^ I've never gotten anything on Valentines' Day, first one heheh. Got flower, chocolate and a paper :)
There was some food at the canteen, cool. Like tarts and drink but I didn't eat, haha, cos I go toilet then about time already. 10min break only, cos we're behind time. When we go back, 2nd round play choice piece only. This time I managed to record. And I played well! :D But soft even at my melody :( At least I hit the right notes there... I asked Darryl how he played, he's satisfied.
Then the schools started leaving, Sec 4s went to see them off. We started clearing the things on stage. One guy came to me and gave me a present. He said "Ngee Ann Trombone Section. This is from our section, (something something) section." He was mumbling so I couldn't hear the school and section but should be trombone section too. I said thank you and no idea why he said thank you back. So nice of their section :) I got a lot of sweets from band people later, haha, even those I'm not close to and don't talk to.
From Fernandez
From Chien Wai
From Percussion
From Tian Hoe
Thank you all who gave me presents, esp dearest CY and Woodlands Ring Trombone Section ^_^ Happiest Valentines' Day (and first one too) yay! Bye! :D

There's OLE (Outdoor Learning Experience) today. Our school hosting old folks. Our class was supposed to be one of the performing classes but the trainer chose 5 to be befrienders and bring the old folks to the hall. I was chosen -.- So I didn't perform, and learn the songs for nothing. Boring. I of course didn't talk to them. After performances in the hall, they went to play games downstairs, then they went for lunch. Then we went for lunch. After school, I was already in bus 27 then I found out there's practice today. So I went to the other side of the road to take 27 to Tampines. Nadhirah there already, Jaslyn came later. Then Assiddiq, he saw us then went don't know where. Then me and Nadhirah went downstairs to look for Ms Ong, then Assiddiq came with the key, just nice.
I didn't bring my file. Set up baobei trombone and looked for Darryl's file but couldn't find, so just took CH's file. Mr Yeo came and said he'll come around teaching us. Anyway, I remember my Overture No. 1 notes but only a bit of A Monmouth Overture. Mr Yeo came and teach me, then he lend me conductor score, which I didn't use because I memorised. I didn't learn anything. I played from CH's file :D And I played CH's parts too :D I so nice help him to write "Bb scale" and "Eb scale" where there's key signature change in Overture No. 1 :) Mr Yeo teach me twice eh -.- Boring. Got break, after going toilet, I went to walk around the school. Then went back to the room. I was telling Jaslyn one of the befrienders of my class don't know Hokkien then the "How are you?" he said it as "Lu hobo" hahaha! Then I said I never say anything but better than saying 'lu hobo' then Mr Yeo said I just said a lot of things, never heard me say so much before. Then obviously he hasn't hear me argue with Darryl. I argue with him better than CH argue with him. They 2 always argue non-stop last time. Then continue playing. I oiled my slide too :D 6pm dismissed, I wash the bowl and mouthpiece. I don't remember the last time I washed mouthpiece after practice. Bye, shouldn't have gone for band practice.

Today there's PE, take height and weight. I'm only 156cm?!?! I expected at least 160cm by now! Later in the day there's Geography, chapter 2 population. Mdm Jamilah's slide show had 2 pictures taken during lower sec assembly last year! :O I saw Chen Hua, so I knew that Cheng Heng must be somewhere near there, then I saw Cheng Heng :D Lesson ended at 12.30pm, band practice starts at 2.30pm, so went to canteen to eat. I saw Darryl with Karl. I saw Samuel when I was in the bus to school yesterday :D After a few minutes went upstairs. I set up my trombone. Cliff said Mr Yeo's not coming because he's preparing for his wedding tomorrow. Then he told us to go for sectionals. Darryl went to the same place that Jezer used. I just set up my stand and Darryl's NCC friend came and asked "Your junior ah?" "Ya" Of course his junior right? I can't be his senior right?
We did warm ups. Then we did Overture No. 1 the starting. I have low notes. He said aim at that block. Last time Jezer said his senior make him and other juniors blast at that block because they always complaint when they have band BBQ. Then he ask me to hold the trombone higher. 90 degrees. I playing and he clapping the tempo then the wind blew and my whole stand dropped, haha. "Nature strikes back" Then I turned around and saw Cheng Heng walking down the steps.
Anyway, he do warm ups himself while Darryl continue teaching me. The wind blowing my file, Darryl ask Kevin for wallet (because I don't have) and he lent his wallet. Then the wind still blowing, blow his wallet also, then 50 cents drop out on the floor. Then the wind blew again and 5 cents dropped out this time. Then I said "Eh got $1 here eh!" on the stand, haha. Then he gave him back his wallet because it didn't help much. We went to a different place but still that area outside the classrooms, the bridge there. We used 3 areas there, but still the wind blew. Ask us to aim at that block.
Still windy, we changed to a third place there. CH said he's now 190cm! We hardly played before the wind came again. CH's scores went flying everywhere and they went running everywhere after it. The stands dropped too although their files are heavy. Then 2 scores flew past the wall, oops. And went downstairs, then CH ran down the stairs to the first floor to get it. Darryl found another place. We went inside where it's not open space, but same level, 4th. Finally we could practice! I asked "Today's Tuesday right?" He said "Friday! Tuesday! You 3 days back in time ah?" "Sorry la!" Because Tuesday also has practice what. Practise a while then went back already. Taufiq was there.
People were late, they settled at 4.40pm and got lecturing by him. There was no break. Darryl went to tell him about leaving early. Then we play Overture No. 1. Darryl left at 5pm. Then he wanted us to play the ending part. So we're playing again and again. I so nice waved bye to him haha! Then we do A Monmouth Overture. When I empty saliva, CH looking at me and he started laughing. I went "What?" He say my saliva went outside the bowl. "I cannot see what!" I really want longer hands faster! At the bottom of 1st page there's a few bars with the notes smaller than the others. Then he's like "What's all this?" I also don't know, haha. We kept our instruments and took our bags. Ms Ong talked to us. She said we just accepted a performance at Orchard Road. :O Cool! I read from Rebekah's blog, there's marching tomorrow :D

7 January 2009 Wednesday
Yesterday I asked Darryl (by sms) what time today's Sec 1 Orientation is. He said 'They nvr say." So I asked Cheng Heng, he told me it's 230 so I thanked him :) Lessons ended at 1.30pm. I went to the canteen with Xue Qi for lunch. Met Mavis by chance and she said Rebekah said it's immediately after lesson but I believed Cheng Heng, so I ate first. Jaslyn joined us later. We reached the room at 2+, very few were there. I heard the Sec 3s & 4s have lesson until 2.30pm. Today we face the door so that there's space in front of us for the Sec 1s. So cramp!! My section no space la! Last row got 3 trombonists, 4 tubas and I think 5 trumpets -.- What's more trombone right to the left beside the whiteboard.
Ms Leong was here, Mr Yeo wasn't. She asked if we're comfortable with Kokomo, then someone said no. Then she said if no then we won't play it -.- Tsk, who the heck was that?! Before Cheng Heng and Darryl came, one batch of Sec 1s (don't know how many classes) came and Rebekah introduced every section. Some people play a note, some just show the instrument. I just stood up, held the trombone high, then sat down again without a word, haha. Someone laughed and said one only. What one only, got short term memory is it? The rest not here yet cannot ah? Even if only got one so what? Got problem is it? Oboe also only got one what, nothing wrong with that right? We played Sesame Street. Serene hadn't come yet so there's no one blocking me and the Sec 1s were standing so they can see me. We played Sesame Street only, no Kokomo because of that selfish idiot. When I played my melody at 'Peanut Butter' those near me looked at me! Because that part I played louder :D I played a few wrong notes, but the first time was the most perfect one. Then Darryl and Cheng Heng came. Very cramp.
Today I'm not so lonely, yay! :D Darryl talk to me a lot, and Cheng Heng a bit also, better than yesterday. Must talk to Cheng Heng more also, as much as Darryl, although it's not as much as when they argue. Eh? Now they're not arguing anymore! I think we played 7 times altogether, because I remember taking turns to introduce 7 times. I remember the second time we introduced trombone, Darryl say want to do 'this one' together. It's the trail. It's the one where we pull the slide without tonguing. Then when he finished, he sat down and just started without counting. Then somehow Cheng Heng managed to play together but I didn't. I was late, so it's not together. Then later I say he never count. Cheng Heng said "Ya lor you never count! You just start then we (looks surprised and hold up the trombone)" Haha, it's not that exaggerated. Third time he sat down after talking then Rebekah move on to percussion -.- Then someone told her then she "Wait wait, trombone wants to play something!"
I think it's around this time one batch very noisy. Then Darryl got so irritated he said "Are we here to perform or to watch them talk?" Ya it's irritating and probably tiring for Rebekah. 4th time Cheng Heng introduced. He held up the trombone just like me, high up :D He said the trombone is special because it uses a slide and you must have long hands to play it, haha. Then 5th time he left out the long hands then Rebekah said it. 6th time it's me I said "This is the trombone. It's unique because it has a slide so you have to have long hands to play it" Then I trail down and up, still standing. Don't know why Darryl always sit down first then trail.
Oh ya, we talked about Chinese name, our siblings, and... other things. Then I ask how to write Darryl's Chinese name, he said he don't want to show me -.- But in the end, me & CH figured it out, haha. And we talked about Cai Yan, her hyper behaviour. Then about CL teacher, Mr Liu -.- He' still teaching me, and Darryl's class HMT. I forgot how that got into topic. I told Darryl he teaches his class HMT also. Then he said he doesn't take higher mother tongue. I said I know, obviously. Then CH "Obviously la!" He's in 3R3 :) Oh ya, our section play CO songs. Darryl trying to play Matsuri then I asked if he can play Ju Hua Tai.
He talk half way got saliva on my hand. "You spit on me!" CH "Bad senior!" then later CH talk got saliva on Darryl. "You spit on me!" Hahaha! Yesterday also Mr Yeo asked the whole band to play the beginning of Kokomo (our melody). CH "Yes! Beginning! Beginning!..." Then Darryl wipe his face. "Sorry sorry!" Haha! Back to today. I asked why his bell always drip water. He said got meh? I said look at your pants. Then got a drop of water there, "Eh?... Condensation, condensation." HAHA! There was some dust or small insect drifting in front of Darryl. Then Darryl point at it while it drifted. "Aiya, it's just a.... don't know what thing only!" "Spider..." -.- ? Oh ya, me & Darryl were talking about the bowl spilling that time then I said I want to take the bowl and splash it in his (the one who spilled it) face. Then he said so evil then I said his senior bully me eh! Then I told him about telling her he spilled it. Then he asked "Then she said it's ours right?" I said "No, she just say then you clean la" Then Darryl say it's her own junior spill then she don't want to clean... He seemed quite irritated, he was from their section before so I didn't expect him to be so irritated... But anyway, that means he cares right? :)
CH kept laughing at me today. He say I watch Sesame Street. Then also once I asked Darryl if he's cold, he said no. I was so cold! Then later I said I'm shaking already. Then CH I think twice saw me shaking and said "Shaking... hahaha..." Then the third time I look up and saw him looking at me then he turn away and never laugh, haha! Then Ms Ong came with the CD of the Genting competition. We watched only ours and I saw trombone. Darryl emptying saliva during the long rests and the camera showed him, haha! I remember that part when we were playing. Then they were like "Darryl emptying saliva!" "Anything wrong with that?! Anything wrong with that?!" Just after the video ended, another batch came. Just nice, haha. Darryl introduced. Finished at almost 7! Bye bye.
♫♪I love NAS, Concert Band, Trombones and my seniors!!♪♫
Band practice today! It was supposed to be 8am to 12pm but it wasn't. Darryl didn't come. I thought he said he was coming... Either today or next Saturday. Cheng Heng had a workshop today, so he also didn't come, so I'm alone today. I took T3 today! I thought it'll be easier than Kevin's trombone. First time using T3 after changing trombone. Then I went to the classroom block toilet to wash the mouthpiece. When I went back, we took attendance and went out for sectionals. T3's water key is really leaking. Some times I saw water spray out from it, so I put tissue paper. I'm addicted to tissue paper too! Hahaha! Sectionals from 8am to 9.30am I practised by myself :) Novena & Singapura Medley. Ok, this is one time when nothing funny happens in the section because there's only one person :( Then when we're practising half way, it was only 9.10+am but Cliff told us to go back in because there were parents walking around. There's brak until 10.15am. I took a picture!
Serene & Shi Mei's alto saxophones. Looks like mirror image right? Today's open house, we already decided no to perform downstairs at the canteen but we were still performing in the room. The alumni person called Jezer came and he used Kevin's trombone. Ms Ong was here since we went back into the room all the way until practice ended. She called on visitors to come and see the band. There was a poster outside the room with our name, Ngee Ann Secondary School Concert Band, and wrote our performance times-1030,1130,1230 and 1330. It's ridiculous. They didn't even tell us we're performing and just put posters. We were supposed to end at 12pm but ended at 1.20pm.
We played many songs. Novena, Singapura Medley, March "Blue Sky", YMCA and Seagate Overture (I didn't play, I didn't have this score). Jezer took out Kevin's scores and messed it up a bit. He took them out of the pockets and didn't put it back before he left. So I put it back but don't know if I put it in the correct place. Singapura Medley is so slow then I play half way and start playing wrong notes, correct position but embouchure loose already, I think. I prefer Novena, it's faster and most of the high notes aren't that long. Some times after we played, we got applause! :D First one was from Ms Ong and a visitor. Once the applause was louder, then we turned behind, our seniors! :D Cai Yan, Zhi Hui, Xue Ting and Shir Lin came. Jezer emptied his saliva on the floor!!! Then he left and cleaned the saliva first. Then we played YMCA. Cai Yan sat beside me a while and see Kevin's file (all the Chinese words and drawing of eyes, haha) then see how I play. But I only played the very easy part, because when it comes to around part B, my sound gets a bit weird. One senior ever said that kind of "rrrrr" sound is because embouchure too loose. And some more Cai Yan beside me, I don't wanna play wrong notes in front her. Other times I don't really care, but still care. If I knew today was like this I would have used Kevin's trombone instead of T3 which is softer. Jaslyn's alone today, so at the melody where there's only trombone and eupho, it's very soft! And it can be heard when I play wrongly. And sometimes I can't hear a melody at all...
M Ong was talking to some people when we were not playing. Then she sudden;y said "Rebecca, can you hold up the trombone?" Then I just hold up a bit and the band's like "Woa...." Then Cliff said "Not high enough, stand up stand up" but I saw Ms Ong was talking to them already so I didn't stand... Cliff really wants to show off the band, haha! I should've done like Chen Hua did before. He held his baritone saxophone above him and he was standing too, haha! I should've stood up and held the trombone high, face upwards and go to position 7, hahaha! That'd be something I wanna see! :D If I'd known we're playing YMCA I would've practised it during sectionals. There were some extra chairs (so many people not here, especially brasses, woodwinds too many cannot here lower brasses) so the visitors could sit in the room. Luckily I'm not near them. Later, Cliff decided that the songs we play were too long, the people got bored and walked away, so he decided to play part of the songs only. Novena-bar41-96, Singapura Medley-bar 53 to the end. Just the fast parts of the 2 songs.
There was lunch at 12pm, it was provided but I didn't eat much. I asked Ms Ong why she told me to hold the trombone. She was telling the visitors that they need long hands to play trombone. Haha! :D Great job Ms Ong! I went back to the room after lunch, there was only me, Xue Qi, Cliff and Jaslyn. I went to keep T3 and took out Kevin's trombone. I went to wash the mouthpiece, Jezer used that one. There's 2 but I recognised it by a dent on it, which may've been made by me. And he didn't wash the mouthpiece first before using. The toilet was locked -.- so I used the water cooler. On the poster, there were concert times but actually we just kept playing even when there was no one walking past. I kept looking at the people watching -.- What for actually, they should be looking at us. I saw a person talking about trombone. Trombone is cool, yeah I know. Even when I'm not blowing (too tired or sound not nice) I still position because I want people to notice trombone. I think I'm the most attention-seeking one because I move a lot. I purposely try to show off trombone, haha. We really just kept playing non-stop!!!
I also emptied saliva on the floor but immediately cleaned it. Then put paper on the floor and empty on it. Only for our very last performance there was a whole group of people gathered to watch -.- It's our last performance and we're all tired already then they come and there were less people earlier when we're not so tired -.- I only slept 5h last night (couldn't sleep) and play so much today... I'm tired... DARRYL!!!!! Well, I don't know if it's the trombone or me, now I can pitch high F. I hope I can it on my trombone too. When I closed the trombone cupboard door, I knocked my own head. Ridiculous. Nadhirah said I look so tired. Ms Ong said it's the Sec 1s first time playing so many times. I seriously need to improve!!! Bye.
I love NAS, Concert Band, Trombones and my seniors!!:D
Yo! I just found out there's a Korean singer called Cai Yan! :O Cool! Actually it's Chae Yeon but her Chinese name is Cai Yan. She's 4 years older than Cai Yan. And there's a Singapore model called Rebecca Tan!:D I knew that a few years ago. She's Chinese-Australian and she won Model Of The Year in 2004 I think. Woah, nice. Can find videos on them on youtube.
