i woke up at 4.30am.. to get ready and wait for a taxi so i can go to school with harith. we were to meet at 5.15am at my void deck. surprisingly, he woke up at 5.15. xD
luckily, he made it at 5.40 so we weren't late. hehe while waiting me and my mum were watching oprah winfrey on channel 5. that show was featuring Miley Cyrus (aka Hannah Montana). kinda random, yes i know.
so reached school, met up with my 2 other QMs.. then started to open the doors for the band. after every1 got their luggage and insts out, we were ready to go..
just before my bus was abt to leave, Mr Siao came on my bus.
Mr Siao: is alan or andrew here? is this the Tuba's bus?
Francis: no this is the Trombone and Clarinets' bus.
Mr Siao: oh is kenneth here?
me: yes?
Mr Siao: is the band office locked?
me: (i was immediately stunned. i thought they would lock it.) uh.. nope. we dont have the keys..
Mr Siao: oh then come i'll give u the keys. quickly go up and lock it.
upon receiving the keys, i ran all the way from the coach to the office and all the way back down. damn. it was difficult avoiding the parents' cars.
so.. the bus ride. it was pretty uneventful. sat with francis. sigh. i felt so constrained.. couldnt make any noise because Mr Lee sat infront of me. hehe.
then reached the hotel at arnd 2 or 3..
OMFG i freaking love the hotel.
sigh. somehow i cant upload photos in this post. something's wrong with the phone cable. damn.
anyway the hotel is damn nice. so..
we had to go down and fetch lunch at 3.30..
so i went. really troublesome.. juggling 2 packets of food, 2 bottles of water and trying to slot my card into the lift slot.
so we had sectional lunch in hong wan's room.. hehe the food wasnt too good, so we combined it with yong xin's chips.
then at 6 or 7 we had to fall in at the lobby.. for the street parade competition.
haha that was the best. we were given our instructions on what to do only 10 mins before we started the street parade. best sia.
all the other bands marched in to infront of the Datuk, then performed for a while infront of him before marching off again.
but for us, we just merely marched past all the way. so embarrassing sia. thus, we didnt even get COP.heehee.
coz the bus was late, we left the place at 1++ am. and reached the hotel at arnd 2. so me and harith and slept.
DAY TWO
woke up at 6.15 because breakfast was at 7.
supposed to have sectional breakfast, but kay rui was missing. heehee.
after we fall in, we realised kay rui overslept. -.- HAHA.
but no matter.. so we went to merdeka stadium for a rehearsal.. accidentally hit harith in the back when spinning for K1. felt damn guilty seyy..
then went to Victoria Institution for practice. saw many other bands there. hehe their good...
then went back to the hotel in the afternoon for lunch.. hehe thats the problem.
after lunch, me and harith wanted to take a nap. fall in at 5, so we wanted to take a 1-hour nap.
sadly, we overslept. at 5.15, firza called. LUCKILY SEYY. we chionged to wear everything, and then chionged down. we were damn paiseh sia.
went to the stadium for the preliminary round.
that show wasnt that bad.. there werent many screwups..
but we got bronze. because of our music. compared to the other bands, our music was overplayed.. (blasting) HEHE.
so that night we were quite emo.. but we werent the last.. there were other bands that didnt get any medal, just certificate of participation.
so... same. slept at 2.40++ am.
DAY THREE
the next morning.. we woke up at 7.15.. had breakfast at 8 with section.. then fall in at 9.
went to VI for more practice.. mind, everyone didnt want to practice anymore.. because we had the lowest points among the qualifying bands for the finals..
that practice was crap.. nobody checking dressing one.
so we went back to the hotel for lunch, and this time me and harith didnt dare to sleep. instead, we played at firza and faizah's room. played UNO.. and then i was so bored that i started prank calling other ppl room. hehe there was one FAMOUS prank call. didnt know i could do it that well.
so at arnd 4++ me and harith went back to our room to get ready for the finals.. firza and faizah joined us afterward to watch some korean drama. and eat chips. heehee.
so went for the finals.. we had practised to improve our musicality..
and i think it worked. but sad to say, ppl screwed up their gimmicks..
surprisingly, we improved overnight and managed to attain silver. WOOHOO TK BAND!! GOOD JOB PPL!!
sigh. that was good. but still not as good as BDB.
then reached hotel at 2++..
the trombone section camped in firza and faizah's room that night.. hehe didnt make noise.
we merely watched anger management, then slept. hehe we brought our own pillows and blankets from our rooms. heehee.
woke up at arnd 7.15.. where hong wan took a sexy photo of yong xin sleeping.
sadly, that photo cannot be uploaded due to technical problems.
then had breakfast, and then fall in for the ride back home.. sad.
hahaha many ppl overslept. LOL.
so we took the coach back to S'pore.. where we had lotsa fun disturbing yong xin. xD
reached school at arnd 7++.. and then i left school at 8.50 because i had to wait for everyone to go home first..
didnt want to go home sia.. and i dun wanna talk abt the reason. really disliked the feeling of going home after being free for 4 days.
anyway. for those ppl who're mocking the band for achieving a mere silver, come on la.
do u ppl even think u can do what we do, as good as how we do it?
come on la. (to a certain CCA) ur not even a band, nor do u do drills as hardcore as us.
so STFU. if u ppl are that good, u would understand sportsmanship and not go arnd boasting ur stupid awards. nor would u go arnd rubbing salt in old wounds.
think abt it la. in my eyes, u are the real loser. *shrugs*
