hey~ i'm using a conn trombone now as opposed to the original yamaha assigned to me, though i have this really bad feeling that jasper cld already be using that. grr...u better not ask y ur instru landed in my hands cos u didn't turn up for prac today. serve u rite!~ today's band prac was really much more fruitful than before. altho we kinda wasted alot of time in the beginning, we did quite some wk after that. we did alot of buzzing and i'm still suffering frm the after-effects of over-buzzing(no such thing.) and then we had brass combine taken by this tuba/eupho guy frm philwinds. yeap. we played vesuvius and s'pore rhapsody. i still kinda think we cld have done more. well..nvm, a penny for my thoughts. haha..i'm still quite overjoyed that i'm using a conn trombone now. actually it wasn't really much, the lock was jsut missing frm the yamaha and wanxin wanted to issue me another. thanks man~ i dunno whether it was purely due to the flaw of that instru or cos i told her honestly that it felt weird to be frm a band with all the bachs and then come to a band with yamahas, some conns and 2 bachs. hopefully she didn't make the switch to pacify me. erm..pacify IS the wrong word. but i just can't find a word to replace it.
also, lessons ended at 12.55pm so i decided to drop by dhs. drop by, again isn't the rite phrase to use, cos i took 1h's journey to get there. was really disappointed when i heard frm steph that tbones wasn't having sp today. it cld be nic's fault, or it cld be jon's fault. haha.. i can't blame either. sigh~ i played on my ex-instru for some time, kinda miss the heavy tuning slides+bell. so far, no one has been assigned that instru yet. after that, i played on the piano for fun. the band's goin to brisbane this year..not fair!! we only got to go to thailand. almost wanted to type lousy thailand, but that wld create a whole lot of contraversy and i did have my share of fun there during exchange.
haha...i realise i'm so not in chronological order. today we met all our pdg tutors. the cutest is that mr yong. he came into class, and we decided to greet him in german. after that, he said, i want to take the photo of ur faces so i can rmb ur names. and true enough, he brought his huge camera and ask us to stand in 4s at the white board so he cld take our picture. damn cute rite? on the other hand, chem teacher was really boring. to make things worse, she changed most of out sitting positions. nevertheless, i got to talkmto other member sof thr class.
ok..i need to complete my tutorials and go the slp soon.
bye!
