In the midst of my holidays.. one exam. Anyway, its at 9am tomorrow. After that its a nice pizza lunch and then maybe home or something. Not decided yet. Going to finish up a checklist for copyright/trademark/etc etc. infringement.

I’m enjoying band quite alot now. Considering following NTU band to Europe for World Music Competition. Hmmm.. Anyway, I’m just abit gan cheong for concert though. Think its not so fantastic. haha.. Oh well.. My sound became really good today though. My fingers just need to catch up.

Finally a Nice Shot!

Back from band.. had a nice supper with William and Jie Bao.  Was telling them that my one goal for playing with TJ band was more or less already fulfilled. I actually improved. William says I’m actually quite lousy now compared to my JC days which I really don’t think so. I’d say this is the very very first time I’m playing 1st part for everything! and I can manage 50% of the time. haha.. running notes still scare me. That cos I have to practise so much just for a couple of seconds worth of notes. Like not worth it. 3rd is like so much more economical! Practise a few notes can last such a long time.

I found out Jie Bao takes photos. She does underwater photography la! haha.. what are the chances of that! so there.. played with my camera for abit while chatting about random band issues. Then i realised it was 0050 and not 2350.. ops.. saboed them and we all took cab home. Thankfully they tampines I pasir ris, very near.. haha..

Oh well, I’m quite happy with what I’ve done in the past so many weeks with TJ alumni band. I discovered my fingers work. I can do alot alot more with some motivation and practise. I still can make new friends. haha.. Was telling them I quite fierce already, I only know like.. one person in the entire band I still dare to join. Then was making fun of people who come already feel neglected then dowan to come for alumni band anymore kind. Oh well. I guess its cos I have an aim.. and decent section mates who are both skilled and helpful.

Anyone else wana come for TJ Alumni Band Concert? haha.. tickets not exactly doing very well.. I sold one book (which is ten) Thats like super ultra awesome leh! cos all the others seem to sell only 3-4 on average. So ironic since I haven’t been in the band scene and/or a regular band member anywhere for 8 years already. Somemore I got no friends one. hahaha… I’m tired. Shall try to find the FBI DVDs. I totally cannot find the set thats been in my house. Sian. KW going to kill me.

Some photos for the day. I kinda like the double bass one.. and the trumpet with the mute on.

Somemore next time. Somemore photos.. Its the stuff JB took while trying my camera

And so it ends. Started out the day wanting to end it and now when its indeed going to, I’m glad it ends. Not before I plan another long day though. Working in the morning to get lots of stuff done. Shall sleeeeeeeep early. Honest! No bull…

…yeah right.

I woke up wishing the day would end already. But its going to be a really loooooong one. Think I’ll take a nap in the afternoon before I go for band at night.

Ever wondered what happens when you put in your member’s card twice and collected your coffee/discounted meals already? The reciept machine spits out this.

How uninteresting is that? I was wondering if they had protection against someone insterting the card another 100x until they run out of paper? Anyway, I gave YX the chocolates I stole from Joey’s bridal suite, brought an iPod to entertain her and studied on my laptop.

Went for dinner at her place and then went over to the Wang’s place to pick up somemore stuff for work.

I calculated, while walking to the MRT at 5:45am on a very super humid and hot morning while it was drizzling and I was sweating like mad, that it would cost me at the current price of $2.10 a litre of petrol and driving 70KM at 16km/l, $9.18 to get to school and back. Sigh…

I had the privilege of being Kevin and Joey’s (Dency’s sister) dinner coordinator. It was fun! Got there early, went for an intimidating breifing with 6 hotel staff (they cheat me also dunno kind), then basically I just cued the couple and kept time for them among other things. It was funny cos the solemnizer was about ten minutes late and the banquet manager told me even he never see before. After that the change of dress, it was photos and e managed to do an average of 1 min a table.. even the photographer was impressed man. All 40 tables done in 40+ minutes. I’m so tired now.. must be the expresso I drank wearing off.. Going to sleep for 3 hours then send my bro and parents off to the airport to thailand for 4 days. Sleepy sleepy..
