The weekend
Started my first sectionals with the primes last sat. So little ppl haha! And both the sls were not there. Well, I feel that the songs next sem are more difficult than the ones last sem, and if I were still in alto1 I would not be able to survive the auditions. That said, prime parts were not that easy too. Notes for Spring were ok for me to handle and for once I could sightread and play slowly with the rest! Haha very happy but I'm not that easily contented lol. Not for sightreading like that at least. My inability to count was actually the biggest problem, esp for Kiko, and that is the thing I'm gonna tackle when my sightreading improves a bit. Haiz. I think my phobia with reading music score is more of counting. Forever cant count :(
Kiko sounds like a nice beach song, reminds me of Lilo and Stitch, always have that image of L and S in my head whenever someone mentions Kiko haha. Sevilla was a killer! Goodness me. Still stuck at the first few bars of chords after so long!
Hmm I felt sectionals were a bit..... not as warm as a1 sectionals last sem. Cos I don't really know the others??? Hmm or maybe there were too little ppl? Or maybe we've just got the scores and just started looking at it properly (I didn't really prac a lot when the scores were put into dropbox :x) so thats why I feel this way? Maybe HS felt this way too so halfway through he asked us if we knew each other. Haha I mean I know who they are, like LK, SM and XZ, but don't really know them well. Hope I will have the opportunity to know them better as time goes by!
After sectionals was prac for 15 Jul's engagement. Was sitting one side at the back and felt so lonely cos everyone had guitars and I have nothing :( It got better after YJ came and M gt the wooden cowbells for me. Felt a bit sad when they were playing rainbow and I was just sitting and listening. I want to play too! Haha. But I know my own playing and don't want to throw face on stage with my bad playing. I was hoping to be able to play rainbow cos I miss alto haha, didn't know I will be so attached to alto, not sure if it's the people or the guitar, or probably it's the sound? So I was a bit sad and disappointed when CC told me no nid to play for rainbow. My last chance of playing with a1 this sem.... Haha, but anw, I wouldn't want to become the spotlight of attention for spoiling the song. So I'll just contend with being at one side and meanwhile, improve my playing!! So that I can survive prime and hopefully one day able to return to alto. I hope that I'll be able to be in alto for my last sem here. Gotta work towards that! And I wanted to try the guitarron too. Hahaha. Too ambitious?
After the prac went for dinner at Utown. Then went for ice cream at Holland V. I wanted to try the bubblegum ice cream actually. The one we ordered was so exp! $7.50 for one small bowl. It tasted like cookie dough mashed with some ice cream. Not bad but not worth it for $7.50. I'd rather eat at Haagen Dazs. Haha my caramel and cookie smth. Cant rmb the name. But I wasn't really in the mood for ice cream after that, plus I'm not even supposed to eat cold things cos it's the time of the month (ahem), so I didn't eat sommore. And to think I was the one who suggested eating ice cream! Totally forgot I was supposed to abstain from cold food. But luckily it didn't cause much discomfort for me after that :D
Talked a bit and I wanted to participate more in the convo, but I was getting tired and I couldn't catch most of the convo. Argh stupid ear, what's with this hearing prob? I think I must involve myself more else ppl might think I'm not interested, when I really am. Went home after that and I was very tired!
The next day met up with E and WK for a lunch to celebrate E's birthday. E was late haha, almost 2.30pm when we ordered. I was starving cos I didn't eat breakfast. The last time I met E was last year's Punggol outing. Ridiculous! How can good friends not meet for so long? I must make a mental note to organise more outings, hopefully one before sch starts, to sing! I must simply do away with this ridiculousity of not meeting my good friends for so long and only meet when there is a special occasion or smth.
Ended up playing with those catching plushies game after lunch cos there was nothing to do there, even the arcade's not appealing lol. Don't even have basketball dunking or air hockey, only got plenty of shooting and those buttons-with-a-joystick game machines. Usually I will google their proper names, but now I don't feel like bothering lol.
After that went home to prepare for violin lessons. I missed my buses (arghhhh) and ended up 15 mins late. So left 15 mins for the lesson and the teacher was nice to extend it for another 5 mins. Totally felt like a steam engine then, super angry and pissed inside, and I couldn't hide it on the outside. Could feel my fists clenching tightly on the case handle and feeling like I'm going to explode anytime if I still don't get to the school soon. Anw, they seemed nice to reserve the afternoon slot for me, so wef from July aka nxt week onwards, I'll be having my violin lessons in the afternoon. Yay! No more missing dinner time. I must plan properly so I won't miss my lunch time too. And argh, nid to prac more, totally embarrassed myself with the awful sounds I produced. On another note, I progressed to the 3rd finger! I must prac my instruments more, must not embarrass myself any further during lessons or feel like an outcast during guitar pracs.
Gonna go shopping to get ready for the ls prep camp next week. Gonna print docs before sectionals this sat. Seems like the prep camp might not be so much of a blast cos so little ppl. Haiz now I really regret not going for scamp or sow. Dammit. Keep making the wrong decisions. But hope that I'll be happier when sat arrives <3
And off to prepare matric fair stuffs and other pub stuffs. Feel really excited for matric fair. New juniors! Haha. I hope I'll be able to go everyday. I realise I do love my cca a lot. I'm gonna be so sad if I have to leave ;((((((((( And it's time to put down the past, and live in the present, cos soon, I'll no longer be the ps.
Oh man I really want to go camps now! Any camps for me to go?
