“You know what I jut realized?”
“Yeah?”
“The tickets are in my purse.”
Chicken was the one who had the tickets in her purse and I was the one asking “yeah?”. We were at the cinema and had just bought our food and drinks. Which meant I was holding my cup of coke and the single large popcorn bucket while she held her cup of coke and her purse, leaving her no hand to retrieve the tickets.
I had an ingenious solution.
“Take my coke so that I can take your coke off your hands,” I told her.

Randoms
Soo... What have I been up to.
Playing the flute. More than what the Chicken and just about everyone in the house (and possibly the entire neighbourhood) is happy with. Except me. Since I'm the one playing it. Pretty much immune to the high-pitched whistle that everyone hates so much. Doesn't sound as rounded as the first time I heard a flute as well.
I know exams. But to hell with 'em. I'm screwed. Have I mentioned that? I haven't really been able to study like some exam-maddened human and I'm on the computer. Yeah, I'm on the laptop on a Sunday night before the week-long exams. Genius. My exams are like dead. Except English. English will get an A. Maybe even better than before... My writing got bettar!
Speaking of writing, I wrote two stories to the Ed board. Woot! Wasn't happy with the first so I wrote a second is all. I like the second one. The second oe is nice. Not the create-stampede-to-get-author's-signature-nice, but you get the ide. At least I'm satisfied with it. Anyone actually interested in reading? Only two pages long. Figured ed board wouldn't have that much space. Or I could give a novel.
Hahaha! Exams are gonna be over after this week! Then it's the holidays! When I would be trapped with band! Not such a bad thing really. Band can actually have fun. Yes, I know. Shocking isn't it? 'Cept we would be marching. A lot. I have a (rational) fear for marching, especially cepat nombor. I have the tendencies to screw up, as some may have realized. Now I'm not sure if I should be elated or fearful... Probably a little of both. Ooh, Huguang humans are comin' to camp with us on the second week!
Sooo.... End of random stuff.

Disappointed
Oh yeah. Hari Sukan=disappointment.
See, band. Band had been practicing for like a month and a half just for this performance on Hari Sukan. First ever formation show in the history of Hari Sukan as far as I know. It was nothing that big, just some entertainment during the break. Sort of like the advertisementson TV, if you will.
On the day before, I wasn't too bad at the last run through rehersal. It wasn't perfect and was far from it but it was fairly acceptable, I suppose. At least it had gotten a whole lot better than one month ago. Oh, and parade. We practiced parade for about half a month, but not as much as formation.
As you may expect, a lot of scolding had ensued during this time, but what do you expect? And as usual, I got pretty much a lot of it. Remember, I do things sloooow, like really slow. I talk slow, I eat slow, I learn slow. Heck, I bet I even breathe slow. Anyways, slow learner=lotsa scoldin' But honestly speaking, I heart the flute/flob section. Everyone in it is awesomesauce and they have a heck load of patience, crucial to teaching me.
Well, parade was fine and all. Got wrong legs again at the start but that was fixed soon enough. I think I played a little more than duing raptai. The national anthem and school song though, not so much. Incredibly, I am able to severely mess up the national anthem though the flutes play for like five bars. The school anthem was choppy-ish since I kept losing track.
Have I mentioned that the band uniforms are like heat insulators? The bomba uniforms too. Are all unit beruniform uniforms like that? Is it meant to make the person sweat and make them look like their exerting a lot of energy?
Anyways, on to the formation.
Lot of people came to support. Like my grandparents, Ying Ying, Ying Hui (no one else but you two and Daphne reads this blog, and I have a feeling Daphne thinks it's totally dead) and the ex-members came back too! I even received this message of encouragement this morning. It was apparently for the flobs.
Unfortunately, lots of supporters and encouragement does not mean good performance. Well, band as a whole was probably pretty good. Well, at least someone from the outside told me it was good... But I totally sucked. Period. I would like to add a 'but' there, but there isn't one. Totally disappointing especially since it was my first actual performance in band and Catholic.
I'm getting over it anyways. Lesson learned: the outcome isn't always what you expect it to be.
Mleh. Would probably get better luck next time. Next year.

It's Claynin' Taime! (Noob sounding-ness on popose)
Lookeh! I've deleted all mah posts!
Okay, seriously. I've deleted all my post to restart the blog. This means that I would either start regularly posting stuff. Or my blog would remain dead and sadder with just these few posts.
Meh. I was gonna say something else about it... Seems like no so no.
