HAHAHAHA GOTCHA! . hahah. Who got tricked by that fake ending of the post please raise ur hand, and slap your face. hahaha.
Right, on to the real post, then.
So, the past week was quite boring, apart from thursday and friday. Last thursday was the most rushing day I ever had. AutoCAD lab was taking so darned long until I kena late for violin by 10 minutes. Then sweating from running, cannot play properly.
Then Friday was also quite a happy day. Finish class at 1pm. Went back to TMS see TWE play. Kaosai quite pathetic leh the band. Mr Glosz where are you?
Ahhh, but TWE going for Balloon Hat Fest this year again, and this time the percussion instruments are going to be bought! FINALLY. The last time we ordered, it never came at all. So we had to borrow from Siglap sec and St Pat's. Thanks ah, 3 years belated thanks to these two school's percussion section.
Anyway, I have to train the section to play marching style now, which is quite hard to convert to within two weeks, not when they've been playing orchestral percussion for at least 2 years or one year. And their discipline is on the decline. Die man.
Sec 4s leaving already, should be matured right. But still they are as selfish as ever. Everything for themselves. Fine.
Sec 3s, too constrained and all that, what with exams failing and parents complaining, understandable, last time I also kena like that. So Nevermind.
Sec 2s! Ah now we've reached the worst level of every section, not just percs. It is always at sec 2 that the players get complacent and unwilling to play if it is hard. Not only that, but give up totally also. Carry on like this and confirm die one.
Finally. Sec 1s, still hard to judge, but the perc sec 1s are coming along very nicely. All they need is the right guidance, which alas, is being provided only by Dewi. So much for seniority.
Ahhh howhowhow, TWE already dropping like bird shit, now the percs are tagging along. Will Meroy do something? Hardly seems like it. Will Zat do something? Doesn't have the time. Mr Glosz? I also don't know what happened to him. Haven't seen him in the band room for quite a while. Who else? Benny and Kekang are doing the most they can, but they're leaving soon.
howhowhow. Maybe if the band was given a quite difficult piece, like Symphony no. 1: The Lord of The Rings, Excerpts From or something, then they'll be so occupied learning that piece that they'll just get better without knowing it.
Hahah people who know me well will know why I mentioned that piece. hahahah. It was the piece that made me fall in love with playing the timpani. hahaha, My first ever timpani solo, at 3 months experience too! haha. right. In the end I practice the piece so hard then we didn't play it anymore. WTH. hahahaha, but it made me into what I am today. My "maturing piece" haha.
Those who were mentioned near the top of the post, please take some time to reflect.
Have a good day, everyone.
