Prelude 28.. 1 year after being inspired from how well tjcsb played during prelude 27. and now, im actually part of the concert, part of tj band. The tj band magic? is that what you call it? yeah. I think its magic. During the first running note of hans christians and those high B flats and A flats. I felt the magic. wowing the audience with an impressive start. was kindda cool. The concert was a blast. But the first half of the day was pretty unpleasant. I won't bother to mention anything anymore, cos, ya, nevermind. just ignore that line. During playing, it just felt weird playing, didnt really enjoy myself to the fullest. For the first half of the concert, I was using my miyazawa, and apparently that day, i dunno why, but it was posing problems for me. I dunno whether it was the flute or me. But for the 2nd half i used dion's altus. haha it was much more shuang to play with it that day i guess. stage band that day, everyone really put in their best. Im just really glad about that. cos all the late nights staying up, all the quarrels and stuff which caused me loads of trouble. yes, all worth it. I cant wait for the cd to be out, so that i can see the DVD. spirited away was the best piece that day i think. according to elliot, his hair stood up. haha. i love spirited away~ haha. for die it was okay, i guess. played piccolo for that piece, screwed up on the running notes. sianz.but i guess, it was okay. yeah. inn of sixth happiness, ya. iguess i did manage to hold a delicate B. yay. heart and voice was woosh. though screwed up a bit~.=/. oh well. okay. enough jabbering. lets see pictures then.

----------------------------end of part 1 of post-------------------------------------------
part 2, so after concert, band kindda settled down. back to school life. haha. really enjoyed time spent with 22/08. but one thing for sure is that, last week, was all about distractions in class. ya. couldnt even concentrate much. haha. but nevertheless, last band prac was sc tryouts.
that day, xinyun was feeling damn jittery and i was trying to calm her down and tell her that she can do it. I was in the canteen to her and tlaking to her about stuff. But then in the band room, we all settled down. I was kindda looking forward to all the student conductors of j1 batch conduct and i happily took my flute and sat there. then suddenly, i was being called out to conduct as well. i was like HARR?! NO WAYY. OMG. no way. me?! I'VE GOT NO CONDUCTING EXPERIENCE MANZZ. AND ME?! HURRR. OMGG. Im freaking screwed.
so all the j1s who got selected went out. then like. yeah. all sat there, other than me, xinyun and grace, the rest all had conducting experience. haha. everyone was feeling jittery,a nd i didnt wanna go in. cos i had no experience AT ALL. waited. and didnt know what i was doing anyway. anyway, that day i was sick as well and was planning to go home. when i found out that xinyun was even sicker and that she was going, felt really guilty. haha. so, yeah. still went. aiyo. then had this thing. anyway. when it was my turn, was shaking my head all the way till i went up. i felt freakishly stupid while i was up there. despite that, haha. yeah was my first time actually conducting a band=.=. haha. other than sectionals in haising, which was mainly clapping hands=.=. anyway, yeah.my movements were really broad. and like, everyone was laughing. and arhh, yeah. during the last part of robin hood and with heart, screwed up. haha. nvm. but it was fun conducting anyway. it;s really a whole new perspective from the band up there. mmm. but i did notice that a lot of ppl were looking at their scores. haha. oh well~. and arhh. thanks arhh. thanks ______. for laughing so hard till you can tear. haha. anyway. yeah. it was quite and experience laa. haha. nvm. mmm. really hope that we can have good scs for syf yeah.kwangyi, rachel, bao hui? yeah. they're all really good i think. haha. jia you manzz.
------------------------end of post part 2------------------------------------
to: you. gosh. can you like for once, trust the group. like COME ONNNN. you've gotta have trust to make this thing work mann. without trust, we're gonna flunk this thing. for once, yeah come on. just TRUST US. argh.
sighs. for once, im finding myself to become more self centred, more clingy, more. yeah. i dunno why. sometimes when i reflect on things that i do on impulse, sometimes i feel so freakishly stupid. many a time when i know im gonna act on impulse. i would normally be able to stop myself. until sometimes, it just reaches a point when you cannot ren anymore and just resolve to acting on impulse. die. self centred-ness. something that i will never ever wanna be. yet slowly and unknowingly, im becoming more self centred. die. nvm. have to reflect sometimes i guess. and for clingy, gosh. the horrors of sec 2. nvm. I shall not mention it out.
anyway. FRIDAY WAS A HAPPY DAYYY~ wee. haha. chem spa, i did get n=7. and i finished my lab report early. haha. for ocne, im actually looking forward to getting back chem spa. haha. and the best part is, it's counted for A levels. haha. and i got back several tests. and for once i passed my gp compre. haha. yayness. and my chinese listening compre got full marks as well. It's been long. really really long since i felt happy over academics. lately, it's all about flunking, failing and being depressed. that reminds me, i've gotta wear specs from now on. both eyes, the guy said both eyes degrees went up by 25 deg. so that means, no more right perfect eye sight to depend on. my right eye is like 25 deg and my left 275.=(. oh well. and ot think that when i was young, wearing specs is cool. =.= i miss my perfect eye sight. sianzz. its DUPER MA FAN wearing specs. sighs. lesson learnt: never ever depend so much on onething and that, never take things for granted. mum nagging me to wear specs like everyday even though i can depend on my right which was lazy eyes. gosh.
ANYWAY, THERES LONG WEEKEND. WEEEEEE. haha. morrow is chloe's first year bday. i cant wait to see them again manzz. they are the only 2 which ALWAYS no matter how makes me happy mann. i really cant wait. goshh. hahaa that little pearl=). oh well. cya guys round. REALLY LONG POST yeah haha. cya! off to school for pw.=.=
