It has come and gone as swiftly as a bird. Time really flies. I still remember how sec 3 life was. Gah. i'm feeling melancholic.
I found First Suite In Eflat by Gustav Holst online. And as i was listening to it, I was reminded of how we massacred it the first time we sight-read it. It brings back fond memories. Even though we sight-read it TERRIBLY. But yeah, it reminds me of my band life as a nooooobody. And i kind of miss being a normal band member.
I miss the times i was stress-free. haha, ohwell, with the years i pass, the burden gets heavier. But well, i get stronger too (:
Today had band from 8-1pm. I swear i'm getting old, i set my alarm at 6.30. It rang all the way from 6.30 to 7.30! and i didn't wake up! and i didn't even know it rang! thank gdness my maid woke me up! >.<
Had woodwind sections. And well, it was actually quite disappointing. I mean, the woodwinds were okay lah, but it was quite sad to see some people unable to play. Even at this point. And i really don't know what to do. So yeah, I see juniors better than seniors. And it's disconcerting and makes me uneasy and worried. Why can't everyone just put in a little more effort...? is it so hard?
Anyway, had band prac with Sir. Haha, i sat up straight in my chair with my feet flat. But, i actually clamped my knees together, with my feet apart. So my legs made this inverted V shape. Haha, so right, it's an unconscious movement of mine. So while during overture no. 1, mr tan suddenly says something to me whilst conducting the band. As the only 1st clarinet one, and i had just finished the running notes part, i thought he said something like, zuo de hao! or too loud! Instead, he said, sit properly in chinese! hahah! he said i sat like dingdang or smth (forgot). haha, i seriously didn't know we cldn't sit like that. Can you imagine for concert, we wear our band uniform and then we sit with our legs open. SKIRTS with LEGS OPEN. NOT A PRETTY SIGHT. i have to master e art of sitting with my legs apart and playing. Somehow as i play, my knees just clamp together unconsciously. gah.
After band, had lunch with dawn and liana. Then i self-practed and fooled around in the band room until 4. Played the clarinet concerto with kimberly (: practiced A of die fledermaus, played e piano for fun. haha, liana taught me a new song! Played a bit of overture. And played around with the metronome and gossiped with chuchu and grace (:
Haha, highlight of the day! haha, averil slapped kimberly! hahahah! kimberly called averil and baby and there you go :D awww, my juniors are so amusing.
I lost my bottle though. I swear i have no idea where i put it! i was searching all over ): this sucks man! haha, ohwell.
I shld buy like 5 bottles for myself on my bdae. haha, for spares.
I swear i'm ageing.
Haha, when we left at 4, the staircases were all locked up. The gate was almost closed. It was quite terrifying actually. The thought of being locked in school! So we took the lift down, and then quickly left school.
An eventful day at school.
I want my life back.
I want a life. ):
