He always gives me a look I don't quite get. It's as if I'd wronged him in a passive way. Was it because of....?
I don't quite get the faces she gives me at times either.
IU is up again and as usual the bands and "bands" are popping up. We'll see how they fare.
People are asking people out this year. More so for those who want to be asked out. I don't even feel like going to IU, never did. Yea yea pester me to ask her out.
Farina has got quite some nerve to turn up at the hall today. Haven't seen her even pop by since the first Saturday. No comment.
My fingers wouldn't press the Euphonium valves down correctly at one point. My student Hon Vee wasn't there and Vincent gave me some shit about being "only a normal member". Ok la I admit I have no post, but doesn't mean I can't contribute right? =)
The feeling of tiredness mysteriously only hits us when we're sitting in class. Boring? Not all classes. Tired? We feel fine the rest of the time.
I can't wait for my Er Hu.
How to handle music addiction?

Eclipse Of Technology
Quite something, the blackout on Friday in my side of USJ3.
The world seemed like it reverted to the age before colonization and technology. Even with the little activity going on on my street, the world felt like it had died. Perhaps the only lifeforms were plants and none but for a few humans. The sky was stained a purple-ish crimson to the north and I wondered if that signalled something.
Reflecting on the world today, I thought...
Ye, the world is indeed dead, dead or dying.

Tide & Ebb
Bohemian and Irish music is interesting.
Without Tracey and Se Ying, its down to me to lead the euphonium sounds, oh god. At least my piano practical and theory is at the end of the year. Wonder when I'll be able to take my i-GCSE.
NEEDS INTENSIVE EUPHONIUM PRACTICE.
At least after drill practices start I'll have to deal with Moral and Sej less. Sej is my studies kryptonite, seriously.
I quote Gary in saying that change must start from the top, but usually the top doesn't want to. When change starts at the bottom, the top hinders and restrains it.
Pretty much true for every administration.
The feeling is gone. I'm still quite the adamant type, but adamant (stubborn) people learn a lot faster.
I'd trade off school's English, EST, Sej, Moral and Civic (doesn't matter if your civic is inert) for extra Music time. Unfortunately I'm not allowed to allocate my time as such.
Sure most people need the English and EST but honestly, I don't.
Oh wordplay.
It was then when my sepulchral tones came out and I wore a stoic expression against the mirror and told myself that life has no appeal as my sister, The Emo Queen Jing said. The aggravated and surprised face of a certain History teacher loomed from behind the fogged glass and I averted her gaze only to find I had to pay my upkeep of thoughts and self-reflection on the sides with no mirrors. I suddenly thought about the morbid end of mortal life. I chained the thoughts of death down and returned to my shelter of solace. Substancial information was lost during the conveying of virtues during bonding. My core reacted to the relation with my most distant friends and family and I feel lapses of nostalgia. There used to be an abyss in continuity of thought way back when. Tides of mixed emotion pulverized my past of sand and shadow and obliterated my pity for the ones who stayed behind during the evolution of the mind and soul. Let it be, I thought. Let it be...

Swingin' Solos
You should have seen the look on Cik Tan's face when I caught her staring at me all the out the hall as I went off stage. Priceless.
Euphonium section (excluding Wei Liang who was lost from our sophisticated conversation) had a phoney talk before performance about aerophones, other instruments, orchestras and phoney religious people etc.
Sher Hann's incredible post:
Friday Night
Vincent actually asked me to play the intro to the Pink Panther Theme on the baritone, didn't sound very nice. Euphoniums aren't used in jazz. (=
QingYin: You all brass damn lame one lorr...
Tracey: Timpani damn nice to play. Got bwuuuuoooooonng (getting higher as pedal is pressed) sound.

Ignorance Is Bliss
So Gloson is still being....ignorant, although I note he's chill about Sher Hann and me firing stuff at him, admirable.
February test was cheap. Nuff said.
I seem to be obsessed with music, already play the piano, harmonica, guitar(suck), trombone, euphonium and conga (no time to practice though) and I'm still interested in the er hu, saxophone and bouzouki. Perhaps ocarina as well. Funny me.
I want people to jam with. Maybe eventually start a band. But people these days always have "no time".
I figured out that popular people don't get real friends most of the time.
I figured that immaturity is a disease that takes a lifetime to cure, it's just that some people don't take their medication. Although having an inner child is important, being a child isn't equivalent nor tantamount to retardedness.
Kok Meng is very enlightening for a guy who doesn't stand out like "The Gang". Seriously you "The Gang" people need to get a fucking life; fads, "cool", so-called outings, DoTA, Friendster and Facebook abuse, Valentine's gifts for popularity, blogs saturated with cam-whore, toilet mirror, what-we-ate, where-we-went, who-went, why-we-went, how-we-went, pointless-"funny"-stuff-we-did, etc. pictures. Add that to the fact that your existence makes no real change to the world cause you're not in the least bit unique and you pretty much don't deserve to live.

Perfecting Imperfection
I made a rose; stem, leaves and flower.
Seems like I'm caught between having a life and not getting in trouble with teachers, albeit being infamous.
Apparently Miss Tan decided to tell 4A about me as well, the makhluk asing.
Take away my 20 marks if you want, I have no time to do your work and its the least of my priorities.
I'd rant about something, nothing comes to mind though.
Out of topics to rant about? They'll come...
I kissed my past goodbye a long time ago, you can't use it against me.
