Hey! Been quite some time since i last updated. Man, been busy as hell. Test after test after test after test. Well, let's talk about some sutff that's been happening as of late..... First up, the inter-class games. Hmmmmm.... actually wanted to play for soccer, but then didn't for three reasons. Firstly, i had piano lesson that day. Cancel one more lesson and my teacher confirm kill me. Secondly, I wasn't very intersted. Dun really feel any bonding with any of the guys. Thirdly, we didn't get in. Nvm... good effort guys! Anyway, the girls rule at Cap Ball man! what the....? 77-14?!?!? crazy score.... but it feels good. Damn good. Then i remember, every goal they scored, i shouted 'LAME TO FAME!' haha... was quite funny actually... *incidentally, i tot of the slogan* ..... then Yin hong's hair was so Punky! so we called her Punky. Then bonnie was so... erm.... GAO DA WEI MENG! stupid lah.. me and yuan jun they all at the side shouting 'Bonnie! Gao da wei Meng!' haha.... man, that was fun... damn, should have played, then i think would have had some bonding with the guys... Well... Lately i feel like i've been in a daze all the time. Like very blur like that. Then Ms loh also keep asking me if i'm alright. So weird. But nice lah, feels good that got people actually care for u.... Thanks Ms Loh! *TO ALL TEACHERS (not like they'll see this): HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY!!! *random thought* : Chocolates nice when u eat it when it's cold but soft at the end of a hard day's work.... it's one of life's little pleasures... Lately got so many tests... History test was the worst. Bet i'll fail. Just dun know how to pass history man... arghhhh... i need it to be at least a C5. Damn. Life's just so hard sometimes. But then cannot give up so easily... I've been feeling sorta depressed lately... dunno why. Seems like got so many things to worry about. Sometimes i dun feel like going to school, then just feel like lying on my bed and letting time pass me by..... Feeling in the forms now, for the thailand trip. Arghhh... some of them dun know what to fill in man... stupid stupid stupid. Bet Mr Ng and Mrs Wong think i'm some sortof idiot with a hearing problem. Dunno why also. Like lately, always hear the wrong things, then kena scolding in the end. Man, what i would give to be someone else for a day. See how the other half lives.... *dreams on* I think my playing has been on a steady DE-provement. damn... dunno why. ARGHHHHHHHH!!! I hate feelings like this. Guess this is what is known as Internal Conflict. Just wanna understand why man.... what's been happening to me lately? *someone please answer this question I think i've been pretty cold lately to most people. Dunno why also. Man, i should learn to understand myself better. just feels weird. Feels like alot of things to do sometimes, then maybe like got too many things on my ming. or something like that. *another random thought* : I think shi hui is a damn good singer! Just something i've noticed... Some people are trying very hard to act big. I dun know why. What's the point? what's the use? What does it get u? Why are ppl always so hungry for power? damn... wish i had the answers... i personally think it's useless, it's just not ....nice?? something around that line........ not as if you'll get so many friends or something.. somemore this type of friends also not real friends, if u get what i mean... arghhh... bet i seem like some guy spouting nonsense... arghhh, forget it. Chenlu, you're a nice person. Thanks for all the sdvice you've given me. Dunno what that was for, but just felt that i should thank lulu.... man, calling someone lulu makes them seem like a prostitute. *shudder* Ok lah... that's my thoughts and feelings for this week. more or less. probably'll be back on saturday (tmr) to give another update. cya then...

Today was a nice day. ok, let's start with yesterday first. haha, like got so many chances to update this week, cos so slack. Anyway, today was quite ok. except for lessons, which were, to be frank (incidentally, Frank's my dad's name, although there's no relevance here whatsoever), very boring. serious. I think they should start making school a fun experience, if not, i'll start skipping school. After school, had band. Now that was the fun part. sigh... sometimes i just wish that can go to school for band only. Then realize that's really a DREAM. haha. anyway, took the Sec 3 band today. And i'm really suprised. Was tougher then i thought. Wow, now i know how mr ng feels. pei fu pei fu.... Lately, we've been calling Chen Chung, Charles. Funny man. Dun really know how it got started. haha, but Chen Chung's hates it and that makes us call him that more. I think it's jessie's fault. Who asked her to mention that Chung sounds like Charles, then put the idea into my head. haha... *Special message: Good Luck Charles! Have fun at Palau Ubin tmr! Hope u dun come back, then i dun need to pay u back ur $40! haha... just joking just joking...* I think the tickle-me is dumb, but it's very entertaining. On to other stuff... Today went for band. Then Xiao yong's came back. Feels good to have them back. Very nostalgic! haha. Chen chung poor thing man, have to change instrument cos his other slide very sticky, then the instrument he change too, the slide even stickier... haha, suay man... *To jessie: Hey, dun be too sensitive k? just talk to me if u feel sad or anything...* So sian man, got quite a bit of homework to do. *random thought: Hope Wilson took my advice.* Tmr ben, gen, rubin and to tang coming over to do work. Hopefully can play bball after. at least tmr'll be fun. I just realized computer terms are a bit confusing. Example: U have to upgrade ur download software in order to download our upgrade software. haha... sounds funny... nvm, i'm just feeling bored. I feel like lots of ppl trying to act big in band nowadays. Find it quite irritating. Why so hungry for power? aiyah, but this type of thing not important one lah, most important is the music... Oh yeah, speaking of music, can u people all please learn to play soft? cos i realized that everyone's playing super loud. Loud is , for majority of the time, no good. Please aim for a big sound, and try to increase ur dynamic range ppl. I'm not saying i play very good or anything, but just telling u all my feelings about this. Cos u can get pissed when u have to spend near half an hour of rehearsal trying to get people to play soft. haha... Nothing else to say liao. except that Benjamin's damn lame. Stupid ass, just now at mac, it was raining, then we had to ask xiao cui to lend us her umbrella, then she supposed to walk the other direction, then she still hao xin come and help shelter, although my instrument still got wet in the end. But then that's not the point. After we all so finally reached the shelter, then benjamin was behind us, we waited for ben. Then he came strolling with an umbrella. Stupid lamist (a Lamist is a professional lamer) lah. Could have lent us the Umbrella first right? ok, seriously nothing else to say liao. Until next time then... Tickle-me-euphonium |

Hey, this is my new journal. Can't sign in to my old one. ok, got a few things to say (quite alot actually). Let's start with last saturday. Well, the whole day we played games. First up was the man hunt, and we had to find so many people (yufan, ken, cindy...). anyway, i wrestled ken to get him to sign the card. poor guy. was supposed to give me a twist of fate, and u gave him a bear hug. Anyway, second game was the sec-fours-catch-u-and-u-must-squat-and-p Okay, enough with the mushy crap. Let's talk about the past week. Been really hectic crap so far. my life's been shitty! ARGHHHH!! stress man! Ohyeah, guess what? i'm the concert-master. When i heard that, i was happy yet sad. Well, i was thinking that i may not be able to handle all the stress, but i'll try... Yao cong, u gotta help me man... Anyway, i had five tests this week, chinese, bio, physics, chem prac, and maths. Chinese: i think i'll fail this one. didn't really study. arghhhh... wish i had chen chung's brain. Bio: soso... hope can do well. wrote quite alot for the essay question, but then again, other people had written more, so i probably shouldn't make judgements. Physics: I'm hopelessly lost in calculations, hopefully can get a few marks for the calculations. didn't manage to get the answers though. Damn. I think the new physics teacher teaches better, at least he makes sure we do our work. Chem prac: A stupid thing happened. I studied like crap for it, memorizing all the stupid qualitative analysis notes. Then on that day, they actually give u this set of notes. Wow, could have told me sooner. then the teacher forgot to give it to me at the beginning of the test, and only gave to me when i wanted to pass up my paper. Dumb. Maths: Didn't really finish the paper. only drew the basic graph, didn't get to finish the two parts. hope fully can pass. but gotta admit my graph was damn nice, nicest graphs i've every drawn. hope can get drawing marks. Well, that's a summary of all the test. *random thought of the day*- I think mdm iliyanah(is that how u spell it?) is quite nice. On to other things... Being in the comm is cool. I think this comm is quite nice, cos all the people inside like all i know one, then we all can say is more or less close one lah. But i hope this doesn't change anything. After all, (i) It's not finalised, (ii)Being in the comm also isn't anything great. Dun forget, we're just here to help mrs Wong and Mr Ng run the band... well, last sunday i went for the euphonium masterclass, by adam frey. He's really good! impressed me quite a bit. I played Bach Cello Suite no. 1 - Sarabande in front of the whole class. Was shaking like a leaf (although i'm not sure if leaves shake). But he said it was good playing and all, and didn't really comment much, except that i had to change the mood of my playing to suit the different parts of the suite. Anyway, after the class, he gave me one on one for 15 minutes, and i tried the whole range of yamaha euphoniums. pretty cool. i think the yamaha custom 842s is quite good. But dun think they'll last in the long run. the next day (monday, in case u didn't know), we went to thompson plaza again. to a brass pedegogy class, again by adam frey. Learned quite abit, although i dun really agree with the way he articulates his attacks. way too hard. Well, to each his own. it ended quite lat, and mr ng gave us a lift to the mrt(bishan if i'm not wrong). Man, his car is damn spacious. I seriously couldn't feel my right arm and right leg. They were really numb. was about 11 by the time i reached home, lucky thing i wasn't carrying my instrument. tried to study chinese, but failed to do so. On wednesday we had sextet practice. pretty cool, the swanee river and the other folk song was quite nice. think chen lu should have been there though. She go play tennis for what? stupid man... Then can't believe i forgot to tell mrs wong that we were having sextet practice. Thought some one else would tell. nvm. *lesson learnt*- never assume. Okay, let's talk about today. Man, today got some photo shoot for the comm members, then we all wore concert attire and took out instruments to the auditorium and took the photos. Then mr tan took lots of photos of me and my instrument, then say i look like gu tian le or something. crap. then he said my eyes very cool. Anyway, i basically didn't practice my instrument to today. Except for the half an hour me and ben did those scale exercises. we should do that more often. was running from part to part today to get the books signed. stupid. Then look like some guy desperate for autographs. Oh yeah, we were having a vote for the choice piece. And to tang actually stood up and made a long speech! can't believe it! then he like want to cry want to cray like that, cos everybody choose passion of christ. i also like passion of christ, but i think concerto for band is more fun to play. for basses anyway. man, totang, u are incredible man.... After band, went with cindy and xueting and cc, ben, rubin, to go eat dinner at tampines mall. then we were eating, then nearly finish like that, then got this group of people stand by our table, damn irritating man. then we purposely go buy dessert and then eat very slowly. can't stand this type of people. bloody irritating man. well, today was fun. Oh yeah, today was damn frightening. i was walking from the bustop, then carrying my instrument. then suddenly, got this malay woman tap me on the shoulder and said excuse me. scared the shit out of me man. then i turned around very slowly, my heart was beating harder then any ...erm... hard thing. Then i purposely avoided looking at her face. and she asked me what's the time. oh man, this has happened two times already lor. i think it's the same woman as last time. then i told her the time, and continued walking. then when i looked back a few seconds later, she was so damn far away lor. scary as hell. then i ran like crap all the way home. two times already. two times already... brrrr... ok, let's see, the comm coming over next thursday to do the food stuffs for the chalet... must clean my room abit man. so untidy, my table. ok, my birthday's coming. WISHLIST: 1. Bach 42BO trombone 2. Willson T2950 professional model euphonium 3. my custom made HEF mouthpiece which fredi's helping me order 4. Def Jam Vendetta (though not much time to play games liao) 5. for everyone to have a good time next week at the chalet 6. to pull my grades up to an L1R5 aggregate 11 by the end of the year 7. to produce a sound on the euphonium so rich and strong that if it were a steak, the aroma would satisfy ur hunger a mile away (play like fredi) 8. corny stuff like for me and everybody around me to be happy always... blah blah... mushy stuff like that... ok, that's about it. man, i think i can accomplish some of those stuffs. pressure pressure. *bad joke of the day*- (from wee yang) Would u like me to tell u a secret? A SECRET! Whew! *bad joke of the day* outta the way for this week.*incidental thought of the day*- I've been lamed so many times, i dun think i can walk. gotta study mep tmr. and mole concept, or i'll be hopelessly lost. By the way, Ser-en is damn rude. feel like reporting her. but i'll see first. Jien also too kind liao. ok... that's about it. hopefully i can update this once a week or so. not much time for onlining already. night. tickle-me-trumpet (TWaIN) |
