Thursday, June 17, 2004mad maybe?
today's orchestra practice was okay. i'm done tweaking my layout. so that funny a thing shouldn't show up any more. so anyway. we started off playing copland's hoe-down. it was okay lah. except for the fact that the trumpeters couldn't play their part. maybe it was becos loo kit wasn't there. the snyo people were off doing some recording or other. so they kept messing up. so mr lim got kinda mad. he lectured the orchestra about succeeding and life for about fifteen minutes. told us all kinds of life stories. i don't wanna repeat them. so anyway.
then we finally finished with copland and played strauss. the dance songs! it's so nice. i wanted to play the third trombone part. i want to play! darn strauss. so weilin and i sat behind the bass drum and talked. and that's when weilin told me about siying's expertise at the bass drum. so the next band practice i should watch the way she plays sea treaders. heard it's really good hahah.
after break they played mozart. so siying and weilin went home first. i stayed behind to complete my math homework. so it was kinda nice. oh yao cong turned up today. not too bad looking by any standards. and his mouthpiece is wierd! it's not funnel-shaped like mine. it's almost cylindrical. it's just wierd. and it was golden. so i don't think i have to worry about the one peter gave me hahah. anyway. we didn't talk at all. it's amazing. cos usually i wanna get to know my section mates. i mean. look at me and peter hahah. but seeing the way he interacted with his fellow tjc-ians. i think he's a fun person. so there.
i fell asleep waiting for yuqin and fang xian to turn up for tuition. i was that tired. fang didn't turn up till late. so we started without her. then i went out for dinner with my mum. and i'm feeling exhausted. my right upper arm is aching. from carrying the thing too much i think. you know. the tuba. anyway.
let me sleep.
but i'm all alone. and it take two to make wishes come true
