Big disappointment when Pn. Wang said the band was banned from doing anymore concerts. There are actually two types of bands, marching band and concert band. Why not be both?
EVERYONE went "Har......" or wore "WTF" expressions on their faces. Our name isn't "Pancaragam", our name is "Seafield School Band" with stress on every word.
I don't know, I have to "give face" to stuff I don't care about these days. I'm actually restrained and oppressed from doing what I want. Sheesh. This is no longer delayed gratification, this is cold-blooded suppression.
On a funnier thought, I actually like guiding trombonists, even if it means more juniors to train. Plus a senior friend Zek Zhao.
We the band members are a weird bunch. Cheng says to do the breathing exercises, but after doing basic warm-ups and running (sometimes the strenuous push-ups and sit-up all in one go):
"On the field. Set 0"
Apparently they forgot. I was wondering what happened at one point. Can't exactly remember why I didn't speak up though. Cause of all the twists? Irony over irony over irony. So inexplicable. I've got nothing to say, my rants just got proven today, and trust me, I rather be happy about band than be right about my prediction that all this time we were working for an already lost cause.
I hate the sound clarinet mouthpieces make by themselves.
"PAET~"

Mesmerized
I was mesmerized by two dancing lights above my head. I just smiled.
Apparently Thye Way has got fans in the band, hearing the stories I was laughing my head off. Gosh I sound like I'm insulting him. The way I heard them described, hoho, I wanted to scream:
"HORMONES"
4E had no EST today cause Pn. Doris wasn't around. I met up with the afternoon session band gang at the canteen and we had some major randomness-sienzation crisis. Mr. Siew Chin Yi needs to stop touching Yi Qian, haha. Your trombone is long enough so make sure your hands aren't, AHAHAHA.
Uhhh, Trombones FTW!
It's hard for me to remember that these people are two years younger than me. I got painstaking reminders of that when I got some of their e-mails. The "_1995". Ouch, I feel so old.
I would have load of reasons to miss Form 2 if I had friends like them back then - big gang,all gags. But of course, no time for wishful thinking of the past.
Found so many blogs today, just Google one small thing and viola. Dah jumpa pun Puan Heng (sudah kahwin ke, Yi Qian?) , Sook Lee, Yi Le, Thye Way dan John Goh punye blog. Mungkinlah aku ini sudah tertinggal dengan orang semua ini. Macam-macam gossip dan pose ada kat blog.
What am I typing?!
The movie on TV2 was interesting, Double Jeopardy. Apparently if you're accused of killing someone who is still alive, you can kill them "again" in front of hundreds or even millions and the law still can't touch you. Loophole in a loophole, amazing.
I don't have anything against crushes in particular, but having feelings for someone based on first impression isn't the smartest thing humanity has done, although not the dumbest. You don't even know the person well enough and suddenly you want to ask him/her out or etc. Love seems like the most nonsensical thing ever, so valuable yet so easily disposed. If you think crushes are dumb then crushes on celebs must be plain primal instinct.
On a more "Har?" note, someone tell me why many girls prefer physically older guys if not necessarily mentally older?

Short-termed
I've lost my sense of time.
I want a Trombone and a Sax badly. Bass trombone rocks.
I'm worried for the band's formation stuff. Yea, I'm so sarcastic when I complain you just want to rip my head off. But I do this cause I don't want to let it build up that I find myself angry at the band. I now find I didn't mean the part about two-step spacing, the black skin thing is a fluke, and that I'm also angry at myself for being helpless.
I ripped some muscles in my thighs on Friday, I tremble when I bend my knees.
Tag from Joshua's blog, interesting stuff.

Distress seems to be influencing me, half the time I'm easily irritated. I've got no means to release this distress other than *cough* "expressing myself forcefully". Don't ask, even I have no idea.
Yala, you know, life is so pointless right now. We have mid-terms coming up, band members have band competition and everyone has a load of other stuff in our little lives. Sum of them all?
"Forty Two"
(Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, priceless quote)
So I'm not perfect. Do correct me if I speak out of turn, do something awful or plain insult someone. I'd hate to miss my lesson.

Just Like A Child
Taiping Memorial Park
Part of The Chua Family's GardenMy photography with a 2-megapixel camera. TWO MEGAPIXELS.
I learn like a curious child.
Seriously, curious and stubborn children learn faster than most others.
Emphasizing on my craziness I can play like 7 instruments now and I still want to learn:
Saxophone
Oboe
Musette
Bagpipes
Harp
YangQin
French Horn
Didjooreedu
Orcarina
Screw you lack-of-money.
I'd like to thank SSB and ol' gramps the Sun for the complimentary "black skin-toner". Real attention grabber. "OMG you're so dark"
No complaints, we'd only love to apply it to the rest of our bodies other than just the back of our necks, our faces, our lower arms and lower legs.
I love sarcasm.
I love my line "Omg a straight line, I love straight lines."
Seriously SSB members need to get the unit of measurement "2-step spacing" DRILLED into their heads.
The taste of pure sardonism on my tongue tastes sooooo sweet.
1 fricking month to prepare 3 songs AND 2 formations schemes, especially with the skill level we have that we have no time to cultivate?
Read my lips.(Ok you can't)
KISS MY ASS.
Met Emily Ching my old neighbour at the hall today. I remember how our mums used to talk and we and siblings would just sit there glancing around and exchanging looks like dumbells. After thinking for a while, I actually remember how she and her sister looked like so many years ago, real keeeeute.
I got stranded at school today, literally stranded. I got no transport back cause my transporter got to go to Kuching, Lionnel dissapeared without me(not blaming you), Nong and Zhao had places to go. I got stuck with the afternoon session band members, Marion and Alyssa came looking and escorted me to the school office and some *omgwtfbbq you're so damn blur* moments occured. Thanks to Nee Cole(and the mum) for my ride home.
Some shitty "Library Angel" gave me a hard time today, trying to tell me what I should have done. I fucking know what I should have done and I did all of it and I still ended up fucking stranded at school.
I got the names of the remaining Form 2 girl gang today. Let's see, Yan/Yen Ling, Yi Le, Wai Ching. See, we really need to use names instead of numbers.Would you like people yelling this at you?:
"EH E-28 WTF are you doing, your spacing totally out, you never plant your ****ing heels, keep your ****ing upper body balance."
"E-28! FOLLOW CONDUCTOR!"
"E-28! WRONG FOOT!"
"E-28! YOU CALL THIS A STRAIGHT LINE?!"
"E-28! GIVE ME MY ARC!"
Also, people really appreciate knowing WHY they're doing something. Just ask Cheng.
You went from damsel in distress to distressing damsel. Seriously.

Puppet From Hell
I was too hyper in the morning. Said some things I don't realize I was saying. I must be oversupplied with calories to burn.
The school canteen started selling some "low-grade Baskin Robins" ice cream this week. But RM1 for a measely scoop is a little too much for non-high class ice cream. Silly Vincent actually bought 2 or 3.
The house gate has been shaking a lot at night lately, and everytime it happens my sister will go shoo the kittie that came in and say "good kittie". Sher Hann, rest your fears of unruly bandits trying to rob the "beautiful law student" and her "checkered pants boy". If it IS some demented crook, scurry over to the kitchen, grab your mom's trusty cleaver and show the fellow how Diplockians like to rock.
It's not my intention, just strings unintentionaly pulled
By this bond so cruel, I'm never in the mood.
Hate me not, it has no avail.
Fear me not, to you I'm frail.
I'll mock you now. I'm the puppet from hell.

Just When You Thought It Was Done With
I have no idea why I'm bothering to make a post now.
I want to crap about prancing ponies obsessed about games. DoTa over-enthusiasts need to get a life. Oh by the eye of skadi you swear by, do something better on your computers.
I wonder what my neighbours think when I play Euphy at home. Especially when the really high notes go awry, and when I....
"BWWWWAAAAMMMM"
blast...
I've got a Form 1 choir boy obsessing about people in higher forms and how smart they are. Totally screwing with my sense of existence, now there are more reasons to rant because people only value A's and the usual repertoire.
"Oh he gets good results, plays the electric guitar and the drums. What a good lad."
Terrence has a point you know. Why are all performances about elec guitar and drums now? Bring in the classical guitar, woodwind, even a cool recorder performance would provide more entertainment.
You know, not being pretty has its uses.
When someone falls for you, you know it's real.

Indescribable
Every molecule of me was screaming "Wha-wh-what?!" when Doris called me "Jit Sheng".
Seriously, these things have got to stop.
Tengku Irfan got into the newspapers. Yea, we're all like "oh shit, he is only 10 years old", but what I really want to know is how original his 29 minute composition was. AMPAC would be premature to boast of him, it's his glory, not AMPAC's.
Composers over the years get some inspiration from each other.
So how much of this composition is original?
I can't decribe the little things that seem to happen. Stupid ambiguity.

Euphonic Overtoning
Remember how your overtones really sucked?
Now, everyone can play high notes with orchestral masking.
Main sponsor: Biased Ears
I mean that both literally and metaphorically.
I can't wait to see what happens on Sports Day. Screwed formation with no time to remedy.
I see Diplock's cousin on TV now.
He stars in the DiGi commercial.
I remember my Aunt Angie who is area manager for SS2 (I think?). I wonder if my eccentric cousins inspired the ducks sometimes.
Sher Nong got himself a girlfriend. Her name is Yuki. She has terminal cancer, she has only 2 months left. He says she was with the bandits before she started staying with him.
He also says she dreams of having the best orgasm ever.
I've been talking to Chuas too much.
