Haven't blogged for super long. And since cannot blog at my grandmother's house, I wrote out my blog post:) Shall type it here now. Think it's going to be quite long cuz it's for two days.

29/11/07 Thursday

Yup, just came back from band camp. Hmmm band camp started on Tuesday and ended today. I was the only sec 4 who stayed throughout the camp. I thought there were going to be quite a few but in the end Cynthia only came in the day, Judy and Sabrina only stayed for the first day and Mellissa came randomly. Ya, so left me. See, I'm so nice:)

Band camp was quite fun. On the first day there was something like amazing race. It wasn't that difficult or torturous. They were quite nice except for the egg station. My group had Rie, Joy, Su Yi, Nicole and me! We were the first to complete the amazing race:) Then had lunch and band prac. They decided to have batch lunch and poor me had no batchmates to eat lunch with. So in the end joined the sec 3 batch. Cheryl wanted to bully me and make me decide where to go for lunch but I refused haha. End up go golden rooster and eat under the stairs cuz no space to sit.

After band prac, bathed, eat dinner, watch 'step up' and play pig! Pig was super fun. Next time must teach more people to play:) Maybe during youth camp:) Yup, then when lights out, the trumpets were very guai and went to sleep. The next day, we realised that we were the only section that slept so early haiz...

Second day wash instru, had band prac and wanted to have telematch. But it started raining so cancel, and they prepared for farewell and Cynthia and I had nothing to do. Ok, lazy to write abt the rest. Shall kope from section blog if anybody decides to blog abt it.

30/11/07 Friday

Went to hc band tune in today. Met Sylvia, Liang Zhen, Cynthia and Sabrina at the bus stop and walked in together. Don't know how to walk and ended up at the back door of the band room. Then had to go down and up again to get to the front door. Ya, had ice-breakers first. Played wacko, indian poker and elope. Then had section lunch. We went to some cafe in SIM. The food was not bad, but a lot! I only ate half of it and I was super full already.

Then had sectionals and band prac. Quite fun! Zhijie made the sec 4s play 1st and all the solos. Fortunately I only had 1. My pitching wasn't that good during sectionals, only pitch until G. Supposed to be able to play till C...haiz, deproved a lot. Yup, then band prac. First song was something like Fantillusion(dunno how to spell), was playing 1st with Luther. Oh ya, he's super pro. He was the bm and sl of trumpets in the hc high school band. His tone is super nice and high notes very nice also. 总之， I think he's zai. Josh said he was but I didn't really believe it last time. 百闻不如一见 haha. The other songs we played were 'Please give me wings', 'Winter sonata', 'Welcome', 'Imagine' and 'The christmas festival'. 'The christmas festival' is quite nice too. Very christmassy with a lot of christmas tunes.

(reflections haha) Overall I enjoyed the tune-in a lot. It made me want to join hc band. During the band prac, had the very nice feeling of band once again and I suddely regret not playing for their concert. It's too late now but nvm, I shall go watch. Yup, and very inspired by the pro players, like the seniors. And Luther made me feel a bit 自卑. He's also sec 4 but he's so much better. Nvm, got inspiration to improve:) Now should be quite confirm join band in jc already cuz the tune-in made me realise that I miss band. And hc wasn't as bad as I thought:)

THE END

trumpets forever - 11:44 AM :)
