Band Before band today, met JingLin at whitesands for breakfast. Suddenly we both felt nauseous right after breakfast and she went to the toilet to puke out her food. I, thankfully felt better after drinking some water. When we reached school at around 11.45am, I started to feel sick as time passes. Sore throat, my god, please don't attack me ><. We had combine with Mr Tay till 2.00 and were given our break. Following it was an hour sectionals. Later roughly at 3pm, Mr Lim took us for BRASS combine at dance room. The fan broke and spoilt ><. Astonishingly, Mr Lim didn't ask me to play anything as written but instead asked me to hold my high G. Was able to hold it, but i admit it was really horrible sound and tone. He was rather pissed and said I shouldn't be even playing 2nd when I'm tackling 1st on that piece. Thus, he told me to join my juniors on third. There and then, had to sight read the third score, it was really... weird rhythmn. This part i seriously don't get it. Initially when i had a little trouble hitting high G due to insufficient breathing and preparations for the note, Mr Lim was kind of 'forcing' me to hit it. When WingKit couldn't hit High F preceding high E, Mr Lim said it was alright. It took me so much time and effort practicing the 1st trumpet part. As it is my first time tackling the 1st part, I gave in extra efforts and practiced almost daily. Now one sentence and everything is taken away. I have to use the remaining one week time to master the 3rd part. Why is this happening? I don't get it. Sunday, November 28, 2010
Sick as hell An achievement made. -Not being sick for 5months. Yet now, sick again. It feels like shit. Total crap, bullcrap, bullshit. Forget to bring trumpet home. Forget to call up the tuner to tune my piano. What would I forget next? Tuesday, November 23, 2010
Revival of the undead Wow, pretty much a dead blog, I don't really care. It's been really boring and thus I'm back to my blog (=. Lets talk about band! Band practices are on every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday of the week. We're having an exchange with Hougang and Regent Wind Symphony. We'll be playing the piece 'Il Cinghiale Di Bronzo', all three movements. It sounds kinda nice and for the first time I'm playing first trumpet as Lucus would be playing third to aid the sec1s =). Nevertheless, I couldn't reach a few high yet not-so-high notes. Not enough air stamina; not enough practice; thus must PRACTICE HARDER. FightFightFight![Team Rocket? XD]. On Monday, which is yesterday, was late for band practices(i agree this is so Germaine =.=, practically late for almost everything other than school xP). And suaysuay, there was a new rule set-up for late-comers; must do pumping. I was totally shocked! Was around 10sec late for fall in, they were 'lurus-ing' when I asked for permission to fall in! Only then they said today's late comers would be doing pumping. So initially, ShiShuan said that since its the first day of the new rule and that it was our first offence, yes, OUR. We would only be doing 5 pumps as the first warning. In the morning 9am. Under the scorching sun,omg sun i hate you that day for your heat, on the SHARPSHARP parade square floor, we had to pump =(. When we were down, he decided to change the rules. He CLAIMED that holding onto pumping down position for 5minutes would be much easier than doing 5 pumps, so he decided to be 'nice'. While holding onto the awkward pumped position, he said he'll give change and change it to 3minutes. He started a countdown from 180. It lasted forever sia! At first I was doing the guy's style, to save my knees, omg. Until half of it, my hands were screaming for help thus i went on my knees[sound so wrong]. After the hell long 3minutes, fall in to ShiShuan's squad. God my hands were so god damn tired that I can't lock them when turning =.=. They were like swinging everywhere... Had sectionals for the whole day that day. Did movement 2 till bar 20+. SiangYee told us a way to not use our throat so much, and it worked! Thankyouthankyou =). Now at least my sound is a little more 'open'. When i reached home, I was so not convinced that holding pumping position down for 3 godly minutes was easier than 5 pumps. In the end i did more than that and my arms were not even half as tired as it was =(. Uhh, nvm, i'm doing an exercise i'm never willing to do myself =.=. |
