Just came back from band camp. Super tired although i din really did much.
1st day was disappointing. Because when i was walking to the band room, the juniors were having sectionals as the sec 4s were having chinese remedial. Then all of them slacked. I started shouting at them, asking why they din practice. Sat outside band room to eat my mac breakfast, heard the way my section played, disappointing. Then when all of them gathered in the band room. They all like sit there stoning. I mean wad a "nice" way of starting a camp.
Full band basically sucked tat afternoon. Tubas sucked like nobody's business. Blast blast blast, no focus, day dreaming and talking. I told Mr Sim wad i observed aft tat. I was totally heart-broken. Wad happen to the 'Best Section '05' ???? Everything i've done last year all went to waste. So disappointed.
Slept at 4am cos was talking to mr sim abt alot of things. Woke up at 630am to bathe and stuff. Had breakfast and Mr Sim asked me to take sectionals. Sectionals was ok until the section pissed me off by not being able to play a simple movt properly because of the key signature. If the key signature had like 6 flats or 6 sharps i can understand. But there is only like one freaking sharp, the rest all natural. Difficult meh ???
So the section got a huge scolding from me. Which is super rare. Actually i have never scolded them before, if i never remember wrongly. 10 mins left before lunchtime so i told them tat they can do wadever they want till lunchtime and walked off.
During brass sectionals, all of them became super attentive and wrote down wad Mr Sim told them to take note and was constantly reminding each other not to play so loud and to take note of dynamics.
Because i actually told them to be attentive during brass sectionals and write down everything Mr Sim ask them to take note or they will get it from me. Kim and i was like sitting behind and observing them and we were very happy that they were actually listening attentively.
Orientales for full band was like way much better then e morning version. And Mr Sim was happy. Alumni came ard 6 plus and all of us went dinner at habibi. Had alumni prac after tat. Kept repeating stupid song of lir. Make me tired only. Slept at ard 3 plus. Stupid air-con. Suddenly so cold at night. Almost froze to death. Woke up ard 7 plus i think. Bathe, had alumni. And went to have prata for brunch.
Played through all the pieces for concert. Some good some bad. They had area clean-up while we played hockey in the band room. After tat played pepsi cola 123 in e canteen. Took cab back and hear i am blogging. Gonna sleep soon cos i really bth alr.
