for this blog entry.. i'm just gonna talk about some of my memories and times in band.
i'll talk more about percussion.
wanna read, dont wanna read? also nevermind.
up to u guys.
XD

* for those who wanna read this blog post but dont understand chinese and the "dialect" i used. sorry for mixing english, chinese and "dialect" together. hope you still understand. *

yesterday, sunday, so dont have band practice.
but have tuition.
x_x
man, i miss training camp so much.
lol
its different when enjoying music played in my iTunes compared to enjoying music during practice.
hehee

i was thinking about past practices and stuff..
kena scold by seniors, friends ignoring me cuz of some misunderstanding, friendships, unity....
all the memories.. =D

from form 1 when i was a junior..
i dont have friends in band those day.
well, i do. but because of some misunderstanding, they kinda ignore me.
lol.
form 1 year end, slowly try to make friends and explain stuff.
til form 2, people dont misunderstand me anymore.
then became good friends.
then slowly, i became a senior.
and it was my 1st year of taking part in competition.
nervous even though i was in a formation before..
trained hard and walked the drills before when i was form 1.

whenever i think back about all those stuff..
felt happiness and sadness.
worked very hard for competition, to get things right and perfect..
etc etc etc...
ONE BAND ONE SOUND
we were in pain, still say no problem, can continue.
a very united team.
always answering "CAN".
leaders and ex-seniors always asking, " 槟华能吗?"
and we will shout " 能!!"
and shurong always asked, " 鼓队能吗?"
our answer is always " 能!! " too.

we, as a band member sacrificed a lot of stuff.
because of band, i sacrificed a lot of things.
i'm sure i'm not the only one. almost every member did.
time, energy, studies, health, relationships, love many many more..

it's just not so simple.
all the memories.. friendships..
having fun together..
did silly stuff. haha
til now, i'll never forget what shurong did with the sausage bread.
lol. birdy. hehe
and, some kind like "gossips". wakaka.
and what sorta nicknames we gave to the banana guy.
haha.
1st we called him banana.
then because of his appearance and looks..
we called him 肥版林锋,瘦版曾志伟.
XD
sure he'll be mad at us if he ever know that.
hehe

then meddle with the towels and being a "外劳"..
lol.
and let him see our silly bad sides.
a bit fake lah. hahaa
but then it was for fun also lah after training all day.
and seeing him threw the ".........."
we "waaaaah...~~" til shock.
he was so geng.
but still keep making fun of him.
and he called me number 3.
=.="'
he said "三号向前一点, 三号向前一点...." "三号... 三号...."
nobody answered or react to him.
still.. "三号...三号..."
then i turned and see who he's calling.
mana tau, its ME.
=.="'
then only i know his "三号" means third bass drum.
lol
then me and shan kept laughing. heheee..
cuz he called so many times and we, nobody even look at his direction once.
=P

before competition, we were polishing instruments,
marvin bought us pizzas.
TC chase us back to class to study.
but me and laurine ran to class and ran back to auditorium and hide under the table to eat pizza.
haha
and we multiple bass drums, polish instruments and chit chat til cried.
hehe.
cuz that time our friendship too strong ad.
我们四个人的感情,友谊和默契太 geng 了.
=D
i'll never forget this friendship.
shurong said every year's multiple bass drummers, before competition sure cry.
lol
cuz sure at least one will be graduating.
then 4 of us, one going to be missing ad, sure very sad right?!
不舍得 what. hehe.

i have a lot of memories on competition day.
still remember it was 16 of june 2007.
still remember who i saw there and everything i did there.
and after competition, everything we did. still fresh.
still remember after receiving that shocking news, we still kek diao.
[FYI, we, PCGHS percussionists had a deal.]
we kept kek diao. dont wanna lose to each other.
or else money will "fly"..haha.
cuz who lose in the deal, who have to belanja that night's steamboat.
haha. not only percussionists, but every members who went to eat the steamboat together.

that night, we were crazy.
cooked non stop in the steamboat restaurant in gurney drive.
see whose noodle taste nicer, and whose eggs are nicer.
lol
then it was raining, laurine's mum fetch us all to shurong's house to bath.
dont know 10++ to 20 people, all squeeze in 1 car
some of them.. *ahem* bath together.
laughed til i wanna siao ad.
and take note, i bath alone. yes, ALONE. not together.
haha
laurine's mum called and asked, do u all have umbrella?
cuz we'll be walking to gurney later on to meet up with the others band mate to watch movie.
shurong answered YES. HAVE HAVE.
so, thought okay, should be enough for all of us.
and when we all were leaving her house..
guess what?! she HAVE umbrella.
ONE UMBRELLA.
=.="'
we all ran to gurney drive. all wet. haha.
but it was fun la.
maybe after competition, received such BIG NEWS, all ad crazy.
then we went to the steamboat restaurant to borrow umbrellas.
lol

overnight in shurong's house.
shiling and her sis brought shan, ah put and me went to mcdonalds.
then we walked back to shurong's home.

or how to stay strong etc etc etc.
arguments, silly and funny moments, misunderstanding moments, gossip time, joke time, crap time, simply say this girl and that boy...... etc etc..
