u quick update on SATURDAY.
so.. as per normal [if you have been reading my blog quite often] ..
i would head down to BN for band pract.
ok.. in the morning.. were told that alumni cannot perform A.G. XI.
so yah.. decided not to enter the AVA room at all. went up to HISTORY ROOM to see the sec1s.
Fidah took them. I helped Atiqah figure out her Bb Major on the Double Bass.
i was shocked la. she said that she played the D.B. since primary school.
AND SHE DONT EVEN KNOW Bb MAJOR?
ok..fine maybe they were not taught such things.BUT THE WEIRD THING IS SHE DONT EVEN KNOW WHERE THE FINGERINGS ARE FOR EACH NOTE.
i went "WHAT DO THEY TEACH IN PRIMARY SCHOOL?". sheesh..
Ms Loh came so the Alumni went out and sat outside.
it was like some kind of reunion man..
there were
-me
-nina
-fidah
-syaherah
-kamalina
-ashiekha
-nurul
-nicholas
-fauzi
-izzat
did i miss out anyone?
haha!
ok.. then Ms Loh had to leave. She asked me to take the Sec1s for another 30mins?
played FIRE DANCE with them. and i was quite shocked.
they CAN play.
din expect them to sound like that. not bad actually.
there's still alot of things that should be improved on.
it takes time.
after which, attended GOH's DRILLS session.
me and izzat were teaching Ashiekha [the parade commander] on how to hold the maze and all.
fooled around after she's done.
then me and izzat were throwing the maze. had a mini-challenge of who can throw the maze the highest.
no one had no idea who won. haha!
i got so engrossed with the maze thing that i practised throwing it.
well i must say each time i throw, i was able to catch it. COOL EY?
ok.. i did dropped it a few times
[of which it was less than 15 out of 50 throws (around there)].
but that happened only b'cos i was tired. imagine u keep throwing it and catching it. phew~..
when i stopped playing with the maze, i realised that i've cut myself w/o realising. on the palm of my hand.
its only a small cut. nothing gushing out or sth liddat. wahaha!
after which. walked to the bus stop with Nina, Aslam, Finah and Mai.
Nina and Aslam went home while Finah and Mai went to Macdees to have their very late dinner?
got home.. did some stuffs.
showered got changed and went out cos there's PHILwinds concert to attend.
took taxi there cos we [not me actually] thought that we were going to be late.
reached the entrance of the concert hall and then yadayadayada settled the tix and went in to have a seat.
the concert was magnafantabulous [magnific+fantabulous]
the highlight of the concert was PROF. KEVIN BOBO.
whoa..
his MARIMBA skills were superb.
and he played and encore that were composed on the spot.
haha!
it was played on the snare drum. cool-ness. some kind like drumline. he made different sounds jus by using the sticks and the skin of the drum. ultra cool..
second higlight of the concert was when hazizi played the Daikon Drums.. (a Japanese Drum).. whoa..
once a jap, always a jap. wahahaha!
after the concert, went makan at Marina's KFC.
half was in LJS whereas the other half was in KFC.
i was in KFC eating that new MISO CRUNCH meal.
i seriously cant taste the difference. IS THERE?
after eating, went home via train.
while on the train, idham made a comment which i tot was funny.
funny chap.
and DHAM, STOP CALLING ME CIK-MAT!
so reached Bedok Inter @ around 11:50pm.
228-ed with idham home.
went online and then blogged. well.. yeah.. that was my day i suppose.
MOVING ON TO SUNDAY.
woke up at around 1230. aiya.. after waking up is all normal stuffs la.
i'm lazy to elaborate.. haha!
showered cos there's PHILyouth pract. went out of the house and waited for Val at the bus stop with Idham.
oh my.. val was late. so she came out with the idea of heading down to St. Andrew's via TAXI. she paid for the whole taxi fare. thanks VAL. haha!
had sectionals with Adrian Chong today.
it was somewhat fun and at the same time i learned alot of things.
today.. we got our Yamato, Toccata and Nuovo scores. khaiboon and nich were doing the splitting up of parts.
for NUOVO, KhaiBoon plays the solo.
for YAMATO, nich plays the solo.
sadly.. for all the repertoires for 5th of August's concert, i DO NOT have a single solo.
how sad is that.
sheeesh..
well wadever.............
i think i've decided on sth. needa ask Lionel bout' what he thinks.
i think i've made up my mind.. well.. still in the process but i'm sure i'll just go with what i have in mind.
again.. WADEVER..
after band.. it was st8 back to my estate.
8-ed all the way back to bedok res with yonglin, idham and fidah..
decided to eat at the coffeshop there cos its nice (esp the western food)
but when we got there, the western stall was no longer there.
there's so many chinese stalls.
WHY ON EARTH DO THEY NEED SO MANY FOR?!
its not like they will run out of food rite? sheesh..
seriously man... HALAL FOOD IS LIKE BECOMING EXTINCT AROUND MY ESTATE.
so i went home for a while since my house is so near to put my stuffs.
n met them at WAK JOF to have dinner!
i ate Sweet Sour Fish with Rice for $3.50.
after eating fidah wanted to head gome cos SHREK 2 is going to air on channel5.
so walked home. with idham to the bus stop and with YongLin to the Basketball court cos he has Taekwando.
reached home. bathed. went into mom's room to chat cos my bro and sis was in there. all the left the room. i was watching this show on tv in mom's room with mom.
then went down to watch UGLY BETTY.
