♫♪I'm a happy 1st Trombone!!♪♫

This whole week I had no time to do my homework!!! 12 July Monday, I made CY's birthday card for 3 hours after coming back from dental appointment which is so far from my house. Actually not 3 hours straight, I did 1.5h then went to have dinner and continued another 1.5 hours, haha. 13 July Tuesday there was band practice, then when I came home I folded 16 stars for CY in a bottle. I made 16 then after putting into the bottle I found one pink one, then I counted in the bottle but it's hard to count. I remembered making 2 of that colour but only saw 1 so I figured there was only 15 so I put it in. Then 14 July Wednesday had rehearsal for Tapestry 4 with other CCAs. Band is damn irresponsible, just ditch their instruments and ALL go in to watch dance perform. Only Mavis stayed with me to look after those instruments. It's not the Band Major's job to look after the instruments that you dump there ok. If it's my job, then it's all the majors job too. Freaking irritated. I told them to bring it with them already, dumb or what. That's the most irresponsible thing a band member can do other than slack. You can conclude this is the most irresponsible band ever. Then the rehearsal delayed until we ended after 7pm, then people still wasting time in the band room over trivial idiotic stuff like they got all the time in the world. Damn them.

Finally, yesterday was CY's birthday and Ngee Ann Tapestry 4. I liked yesterday, it started off nice :) In morning assembly I happened to sit beside CY, yay! So I gave him the card and present :) He's very cute, hahaha. “谢谢你。。。谢谢你。。。真的谢谢你哦，好紧张哦。。。”Is that cute or what? :D Come to think of it, I think I heard him thanking people profusely before, haha. Eh, that's only the 2nd time he talked to me in person :O I hope he likes it!! ^_^ Then I kept smiling through the assembly, hahaha, because I love birthdays (not my own) and I love to make cards for them! :D Then first period from 8-9am. Someone said "Today is Cui Yi's birthday" Then 3R1 sang a birthday song for him in English. Then when we sang it in Chinese he so shy he go use his bag to cover his face, HAHA! After English, I left at 9am to go band. When I reached there, Wai Yee said to take our stuff and go to the hall.

We rehearsed there twice. And the 2nd time, they said the choir wanted the curtains open, so it means we can't set up the chairs and get ready and sit there while they are performing! -.- So we have less time to prepare. Why the heck would they want the curtains open and see our stands and files behind? -.- So after the 2nd rehearsal we went back to the band room. Lunch was from 12.30pm - 4pm and Mr Yu would come at 4.30pm. I was planning to go back to 3R1 to sit in for a few minutes of E Maths, but in the end when I got there they were dismissed already. I went in to ask if there was homework, no, but they started on trigonometry, argh! Then I went to wait for Chong Jin with Filzah. CY saw me and thanked me again. Then I thought he wanna shake hand, then he walk off, haha! Omg, that's so paiseh! But it's ok because he's birthday boy :)

Soon 4R1's class ended and CJ came out. We were going off when Mavis sms to ask where I was. I opened her class door and went "I'm here!" Hahaha! So CJ, Filzah, Mavis, XQ and I went for lunch together :) We had a long lunch since we only had to report back at 4pm. Chen Hua sms me to say jia you! :D Later Serene also did so, haha. We went back to school early and I couldn't get the key because Mrs Tan was at home -.- So I got Ms Chen to take it from her table. Finally, we went upstairs and Mavis and I played with the harmony director, playing Jay Chou songs. Haha, today 2 of us keep singing his songs, like 七里香，听妈妈的话，爱我别走. She thought that 七里香 was 晴天, haha. Mr Yu came as Wai Yee was conducting warm ups and taught her a bit. Then we practiced until 5. Suky came, but then at 5 the teacher said it was dinner time -.- So we went to canteen but our food haven't came and we waited for so long -.- Waste time, could have practiced more. So we went to change first and our food came. By then it was already 6pm -.- We went up at about 6.30pm. At 7pm we went down to the hall. Eh, I thought they wanted the curtains open... We went in to put our stands then came back out. But when we went in to perform the curtains were closed... Hm... Anyway, argh! I played a wrong note! -.- At bar 86 the important accompanying after the solo (which I didn't play -.-) It's Eb D C D, I went C D C D cos same position... under-pitched!!! -.- Grrr...! After that we went up to the band room to put our stuff and came back for the finale where all the performers come out and the school present our conductors/coach/whatever with a token of appreciation.

I later realised the token is a bouquet of real and pretty flowers which Mr Yu left on the conductor stand and left -.- So other people took it -.- Omg! Next Monday is Mr Yeo's birthday and Friday is Mr Yu's birthday! But Tuesday no practice for O Level listening comprehension sake. Friday is sectionals as usual. Saturday Mr Yu doesn't know if Mr Yeo's coming. Actually all these birthdays are from Mavis who got it from facebook, haha. Oh yeah, when I was shifting timpani it scraped some skin of my foot and my foot bled -.- Then I was shifting into the room with Mayumi when suddenly someone help me then I turn around, eh? Jonathan! :D

So tired... Ok so he didn't wear orange shirt today, but still striped shirt -.- Omg my senior so nice, gave me biscuit again, from Australia, haha :) My father was supposed to come to fetch me but my mother sms last minute to say he's not coming. Haha, so Jonathan sent me to the bus stop. He just came back from Australia today :O Haha, I asked him if I sit behind or in front. He was like "In front la!" LOL! Cos my father never let me sit in front last time because he said the air bag can kill me, hahaha! Er... maybe because I never sat in front before, I bang my head when I was going out -.- Seriously, it's lame la! Can bang head like that! HAHA! Seriously...

CY didn't go to watch Tapestry :( Haiz... Anyway, I love yesterday! :) Bye!

Hi, band practice on Wednesday and today. Wednesday 23 June 2010 was the worst day at band ever, other than last SYF. Gave up what was so important to me just for band's sake when they wouldn't even bother about it actually. I told a white lie, but it's actually quite obvious that it's a lie, anyone who knows me and believed it must be an idiot. But the conductors understood what I said so they went according to my wish (which is actually not entirely my wish, my wish is something else but will not be good for Band). If anyone's reading, I actually wish something but I know it'll not be good for Band, so I wish otherwise, and so I have conflicting wishes. But that was one of the most important things to me ever, which is why I was late back from break. Break will till 10.35 but I went back at 10.50, must be understanding la, but I don't think anyone even cared IF they noticed -.- Why do I even care so much about Band when they don't? I GAVE UP MY DREAM, TOLD A WHITE LIE, DISAPPOINTED MYSELF AND OTHER PEOPLE, TORTURE MYSELF FOR WHAT?! :( I thought I wasn't a selfless person, I used to be selfish right? I still am right? I don't know. They day was just sh*tty for me. After band I went to have lunch alone then project at Francoise's house again. As if I'm not emo enough he kept wasting time and slacking, reminding me of BAND! -.- I had gastric pain there, but he help me buy food :) When I went home it was painful like every step I took. I reached home at 8 by the way. Shortly after, I puked it out, then after a while the pain went away... What a lousy day. Later while I was playing with my phone, Jonathan called. Haha! He used the same trick. Pretend to be surveyor, I already recognise the number and his voice la, lol. He called to tell me he's coming today, and to give him and Geck Woon the Tapestry tickets :) I told him about my emo day... Er... he's the only person I've talked to on the phone when I don't need to. Need to as in, calling to take band key, directions (3R1 bbq, Jaslyn haha) all that.


Today Band! Jonathan and Yin Xuan came together at about 8.30am. He's the tuba player whose stapler was found in our cupboard before, haha! Walao Jonathan wear the same shirt he wore to Suky's concert! After a while Geck Woon also came and they sat at the percussion area. But less than 30min later the 2 of them gone, left YX. Then later he said wanna go toilet, then gone. We were playing Procession to Peace part G for more than 30min -.- due to some who can't count. During break, I saw they were all in music room -.- I miss Suky and she miss me too (really)! :( I went in to hear them play, they took Kevin and Darryl's files. See, even GW don't believe I don't want to play the solo. Gave them their tickets but GW can't go :( After break continue with PTP for very long until 11.30 then Symphonium. I know, the feeling won't go away. It's not nice. I want my senior (I know got 2 seniors today, but I want Kevin)! I miss my senior! :'( I miss his solo! Damn now Mr Yu say he wants tenor sax (Serene) to play too. After band GW talked to the band and committee. She likes "Jaslyn's solo" but I don't.


*我告诉你，我很会哭的。一哭就能哭到至少半个小时。那时我在 conductors 面前哭，他们叫 Jaslyn 带我到厕所洗脸，可是我都还没哭够！不到几分钟就停了。所以我回来，给 trombone 保养以下后，就失重到迟到才回来。可是他们都不管的啦，我猜有些人都不知道我不在。就算知道也以为我是没理由的迟到，白痴。Band Major 怎么可能没理由迟到！所以我说，为了这种乐队牺牲那么多时不值得的。

Band practice today. Marching first. Some Sec 1s came. It's senseless that the band cannot march in tempo. Their tempo can change so obviously, what's their problem?! When we went up to the room Mr Yeo was already there. I got some feeling when I saw him, I think it was happy, because when he's not here they slack. Mr Yu came very soon. After setting up my stuff Mr Yeo asked me to set up any trombone (for Sec 1) so I wanted to set up T3. But I set up T2. OMG... I don't know what he did, but he kept it after he was done. So the whole day Mr Yu was taking us in Symphonium and warm up. We did Great Band Workout, finally after so long. But when came to Harmony for Brass/Wind we were out of tune so we went outside to tune. Kevin tuned for me and took my trombone in for me :) I took longer than the woodwinds to finish tuning, haha. We went back to finish the Harmony. Then Symphonium. Oh... water key injury :O But because of that injury I saw a side of Kevin I rarely get to see, he was showing concern... :)

I thought Suky's not coming, but 10.50am Taufiq point behind. I was: ? ... Suky or what? .... Oh yay it's her! Haha. When she take a chair and they shift to make space for her very funny, cos Kevin say she come then got so much noise, hahaha...! So she sat between my juniors. YAY Mr Yu said there is some improvement from the soloist :D :D He played the last high high G ^_^ Both times. We ended at 11.30am and I asked for permission to leave after keeping my stuff, for that stupid dental appointment. Ya so I left first. Bye!

Haiya... I have been sick since yesterday. Got fever, sore throat, cough... So I missed my A Maths re-test and Bio test yesterday and my Chem test today. Now I have to take 2 re-test and a re-re-test -.- And I'm missing band today! Now is 4 something, band's going on now. The Sec 1s come today. I think they're showing them the individual instruments-play some short music. I wonder who's playing... Or maybe they're only doing the tests today, like when I was Sec 1 we had to tell if a note is higher or lower than the 1st one. What are they doing now?! It starts at 2.30pm, Kevin will come late cos got lesson. Are they trying instruments today?! OMG if they are, is my Trombone ok? Which trombone did they take for the Sec 1s to try? :O OMG 我不放心 I'll go SMS them now. Bye!

200th post. I didn't blog for one week, which is last Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday :S But I have reference from Jaslyn's blog, heh heh heh. Oh yes, I got haircut on Sunday, yucky.

Tuesday 14 July practice. I ate lunch with Jas and went up to the band room. I was gonna do Maths homework but Xue Qi and Chong Jin came and distracted me. I got songs from Xue Qi's phone and was doing Chong Jin's English for her, for fun. Then in the end didn't do my Maths.

Later we went in and set up. I forgot much, but warm ups was definitely Chromatic Low Tones and Total Training I think. Then The Incredibles! Mr Yu came as expected. Last time he said he's coming around 12 or 13, so I thought would be Tuesday, 14. He came at about 4pm. He looks like he cut hair too. I'm not sure, but his fringe is like mine, haha! (Ya, I got SHORT fringe now -.-) He asked one of us to go with him first. Haha, everyone asked Cheng Heng to go, I also. Kevin: Why me?
Me: Because you're senior.
Haha, so he went until 4.40pm+. Oh ya, very funny thing. Ms Leong's phone was in her bag and it rang but she's in the music room. So Mr Yeo took it to her. Just as he closed the store room door (store room is linking the rooms) Kevin came in from our band room door, haha! Then he went into the store room also. Then Mr Yeo came out of it, with Kevin behind, HAHAHA! They say it's like magic trick. Kevin took tuner from him. Then went out again. When they came back we were playing Incredibles halfway.

Then when we finished, I went out. Just then it was a short break. Mr Yu ask if I want break, I say no, as usual, heh. Play scales again, as usual. He always start with scales. Mr Yeo came a while to see. Heh, tiring. Then Incredibles. Oh ya, he talked about planes , it's related to the air that I'm supposed to blow into the trombone. Must have enough air if not it won't go straight, it'll be like a plane in turbulence. He said something about Xi An in China also. Something about many stone figures of soldiers there. I think he's talking about the Mandate of Heaven. We learn in History last year, but when he asked if I learn Chinese History I said no, haha. So, he said the 'trail' is not called trail, trail is one note. Then I said "Glist?" yup, I learnt that alr, from Jezer. Glist starts on the 4th count. I glist from C to F, but probably he thinks it's not nice so he told me to glist to A instead. Yeah, then 5+ I went back in and Jaslyn went out. He doens't play eupho but he can teach her nice sound. Haha, her senior stayed inside. When I came in they were doing Heal The World. Mr Yeo did bar 35. I just missed my bar 30 melody -.- Then I forgot what happened alr.

Thursday 16 July, I brought my Art sketchbook although no art today cos I want Jas to help me draw. Art's on Friday and we're supposed to start painting on Friday but I wanna finish first, cos in class doing art is irritating. So she looked through my D&T book and found plane picture and drew it. Xuan Lin came. I took songs from her too. Rebekah came and told her to ge the key. She went and came back without the key, so I and Jas went with her. We found Ms Ong this time, and we ran up the stairs. Kevin came in very soon after we unlocked. No conductors today.

We warmed up with the usual things and did The Incredibles and Ponyo. The Incredibles was yucky, the percussionist kept rushing and play wrong rhythm then the whole band play yucky because of that. And got once Kevin came in early one beat, I think everyone else did also. -.-""' After Ponyo, it was 4pm already so Rebekah got us to sectionals till 4.25pm on Heal The World. After that we went back and play The Incredibles and Heal The World. Ms Deepa came up, she was just watching. The Incredibles was still yucky, Heal The World was "not together" according to the majors, but of course better. We're dismissed later than 4.30pm, but never mind.

Friday 17 July, all alone. After lunch I went upstairs to put my bag then went toilet. When I came back, miracle woah, Jas' senior sitting there alr, and it was only 1+. Take my favourite spot, GRRR -.- So I took my History things and studied on the other side's table. I saw Kevin and Chen Hua go in, at I think 2 so I went also. Sat there and continued reading but very noisy la althoug only a few people. Then I set up. Aiya! I forgot what happened today alr, la. Jaslyn you la, blog so little! Haha! Mr Yeo's not happy today, for obvious reasons. I asked Serene if we could call a locksmith to unlock the bronze trombone case, she said she'll sms Ms Deepa. I told Suky on MSN on Thursday about that, she say call locksmithWe were dismissed earlier than 6pm today :O

Saturday 17 July, sectionals but Mr Yeo came. Kevin came at 8.08am about there. We played everything today, in order. He decided on the order to play at Takashimaya, Ponyo first, then I forgot. Have to remember!!! There's Ponyo, The Incredibles, Heal The World, Kokomo, YMCA and Sesame Street. Mr Yeo's still not happy. We ran through once in all the songs in order. Mr Yeo asked how Andrew (Trumpet) injured his hand.
Mr Yeo: They say you flagged a taxi. I don't believe it, (He asked how he got injured)
Andrew: I flagged a taxi
Mr Yeo: (Laughs, really)
So actually it wasn't the taxi that injured him, it's the car in front of the taxi that go bang his hand -.- And drive off after that -.- Then practise until 9.30 break till 10am. Rebekah and some others got cake for Mr Yeo, his birthday's today :O After break we continued. After a while, he asked us to go for sectionals on Flight Of The Piasa (finally, we've never played it in combined). He said we can scrap Mamma Mia! and I was like "Har?..." Then he said (I think he was talking to me) "You like ah?" I think I nodded and someone else said something too, then he said "Ok lor, but you all must practise ah" Hehhehheh.

Then Mr Yeo talking to someone halfway I think, when Rebekah went out to take the cake and say "Happy birthday, tomorrow is your birthday right?" HAHAHA! It's so sudden and funny. We sang him a birthday song in English. Kevin conitnued in Chinese but nobody did. Then he asked "Where's my Chinese version?!" Haha, so ya Chinese version. No Malay or Sri Lankan (Faris and Andrew) version. He blew the one candle and cut the cake. We took band picture. Lol, he put the chocolate cake on the conductor stand. Actually Kevin stand in front but too tall so he sat right in front, in front of Mr Yeo even.

Kevin looks cute right? :D The same expression as that of Darryl in the picture before SYF...


I know I got little fringe la huh, but it wouldn't be so ugly if that idiot didn't cut it like that ya? Then we went to music room for sectionals on Flight Of The Piasa. Mr Yeo said A Brazillian Portrait also, but we didn't practise that one. I put a score in front of that alr, I think YMCA. Anyway, after that dismissed, bye! Happy birthday Mr Yeo! Haha!

♫♪I'm a happy 2nd Trombone!!♪♫

Yo! Today's first lesson was PE. 1R3's teacher was absent so we had PE with them. Just training for NAPFA test. First thing was running. 2R6 run 6 rounds, 1R3 5 rounds. I just realised 2R6 is 1R3 x2 haha! I ran with Wen Ling and during our last round I thought it was the 5th. I dragged her down, quite behind, she's actually better. Yeah, after finished I had stomach pain so I didn't do the 30 push ups they all did. I just sat beside the grass. Seok Kee saw me and told teacher I had stomach pain, so I continued doing nothing. Then I puked beside the grass -.- And teacher told Seok Kee to help me to the canteen or somewhere. But at the shelter I started getting dizzy and all I saw was green. So I sat down and teacher told them to go first. Every time I stand up I can't even see anything. I was supposed to go to the canteen but given the rate I was going, she made me go to the standing tap to wash up then go to General Office. I couldn't walk there, because I couldn't see, so she got some people to help me.

I saw a hand, but don't know whose. I realised it's Qian Hui and Swee Kee. They supported me to the GO. I couldn't see a thing but just continued walking unstably till I reached the bench outside. Teacher told me to sit down and I actually thought I was gonna sit on the floor but then I felt a chair, haha. Thankful that they actually positioned me so I wouldn't miss the bench and sit on the floor or make a fool of myself. Maybe teacher told them I couldn't see. There were some people there, but I don't know who. I only vaguely saw Ms Tan the VP when I sat down. Then I went into the GO and sat there and QH and SK left. Thanks people :) I was sweating like a pig, and I think I was cold and clammy, yucks. Then it was only about 830, half an hour into PE. I bet I spent damn long at the shelter walking 3 steps and stopping and again. I lied down on the chair until one of the staff (don't know her name)came and gave me milo. It's cold in there. And I think I was white, like that time in class where I had cramps. I bet I was attracting a lot of attention to whoever saw me :S Even the OM with big specs Mr Ong was like "Girl you ok?" (Why people still call me girl ah?) Later Ms Tan opened the door and a staff lady was quick to say "She's going back" then she left. Woah, how she know what Ms Tan come for?

Anyway, am thankful to the people who helped, esp my classmates, and Swee Kee again and Rasyidah for helping bring my stuff down. My father came to take me home since I couldn't contact my grandparents. That time was about 9.45am. Stopped hurting and sweating already, but still cold of course. It's like the band room or colder there.

Now to start spoiling people's reputation. Not my classmates la of course, they're so nice :D It's the damned doctor. My father brought me to that doctor near my house and he waited while I went in. She does nothing but bullshit, her English bullshit too. It's worse than my Chinese. Worse than Darryl Kor Kor's Chinese even. (I'm not insulting Kor Kor here, I'm obviously insulting her.) (Speaking of Chinese, wonder how he did for his Chinese Oral today...) I said I had stomach ache then I vomiitted and I felt dizzy when I stood up and can't see anything. Then she retardedly don't believe I can't see, and say what blur, bullshit. I said it's can't see at all, everything's green, but as you know now, she's retarded la. She thinks my English is so lously I don't know what I'm talking is it. Eh, bitch, even a little kid 10 years younger than me knows the difference between cannot see and blur ok. Only you don't know la, because you never even got pass the stage of learning basic English that babies learn when they know how to talk, cos you're that retarded. Oh and did you get negative marks (less than 0)for your English PSLE decades ago? Then she check my stomach and pressed and ask if got pain. No. Then she asked if it's on off pain. No. Oh my gosh, she asked if then it's from just now till then the pain never stop. -.- x 100. Wtf, I have never met anyone whose English is that fking retarded. I was like "No just now for a few minutes la." Then she thinks she's right. -.- x 1000. All of you know what"on off" is yeah? I know. OMG, hilarious, some idiot who cannot even speak conversational English (My conversational MALAY is better ok) sitting in a clinic room getting money for talking the most nonsensical bullshit that doesn't make sense half a bit (not even one bit). I felt like slapping her face you know. Cheat peope's money la, $28 wasting my time, making my blood pressure rise, cos I'm damn pissed off. 2nd idiot quack doctor to piss me off. Oh look, this paragraph is longest. I can be mean and insult with every indecent word I know when I get enraged like that. I don't say it out of course, I curse and swear inside. By the way, that clinic of a bitch is Blk 52something near 526 in Hougang. There's 2 doctors but only one pisses people off, the old woman one who always comes way later than the time stated outside -.- Her name is Cheng Soo Hong, so yeah don't ever go there.

Bye, and again, thanks people :) :) :) Darryl Kor Kor, don't think your Chinese is bad. Chinese is your second language, your English is good :) There are people more than twice your age and less than half as good as you are in anything, ok? There :)
