My trumpet issue is over. The smell went away! diao..

I am going to Japan NEXT WEEK!!! I got my band uniform le and it looks seriously weird on me. The yellow bowtie look extraordinary weird.Bye bye everyone and I will be coming back on the 12th. I will be leaving for terminal 3 on 4th at 9.30pm. I am sooo excited to sit on a plane. SIA the huge one!I havent been sitting on a plane for one whole year and I miss that feeling. HAHA. This week have been a busy week for me as I am rushing to complete my homework but it is still impossible.
Hope everything goes well next week.=)

Something happened!! in BAND.

My trumpet stinks now and it smells like petrol or some insecticide. It is all because of the OIL, valve OIL.
I just use a new box of valve oil to oil my valves but after that it stinks like some kind of poisonous gas when you start to blow it.
My other two friends who also use that PARTICULAR valve oil also had the smell but I was unlucky. My friend's trumpet did not have much smell and it went away and my another friend's trumpet smell worse but she can change because she is not going to Japan. For me, It smells badly and I cant change the trumpet that I bringing to Japan. Worse, I will be inhaling this gases and it is suffocating me. How now? Negotiate or tolerate? I am now washing the whole trumpet with water hoping that the smell and the oil will go away. Wish me good luck.

Hello!

Scroll down to the last! HaHa taking more wu liao pictures soon.HEHE =) Dont laugh ho.=D

Guess what I have been doing in the holidays? WAtching Tv. Scolded many times but next year is streaming! Geo will be changed to human geo, history will be changed to the country's history, science will be more and more difficult.....learning maths in a faster speed... Scared uh.. very scared. Band will even be more stressful if I go SYF! They say there will be a whole week of band practicee and footdrills. Oh my, I hate it. My whole level had a hard time just mastering the first few basic lines of a footdrill. Our seniors scolded us so many times and everytime we will forget again. They seem disappointed with us. Our conductors are so strict with us. The rest of the people who are going to Japan have brand new trumpets except for me. The same unpolished and used before trumpet. What will the people in japan say about me with an older trumpet while the others with a new trumpet? Although I did not tell my section how I feel but I feel sadd. NVM. Maybe it is a blessing in disguise.

Do u want to see the places I will be going for the trip? I am not going to let you see and wait till the time when I am back from there!

My sister is having her theory test tomorrow, She seemed confused and stress and she is also having her BIG chinese exam soon. I cant imagine the look on the face when I am on the computer in front of her. She can still continue with the work. If it was me, I would have been greatly defeated. How I envy her tolerance and thats why I was even scolded by my father .

Everybody, exams are over but I still got tuition you know? Chinese tuition. Dont laugh at me.

Hello people

Do u know what I am thinking in school for the past last week of school? the times after the PSLE.PSLE PSLE. This time I really miss the times we played games like murderer, tie di, stress... SO SAD. I LOOVVEE my primary school.I dont wish to grow so fast and miss the happy times I had, and the sad ones too. I miss the friends that made me laugh and cry. HAHA.

WOW. Just look at my report book this year. I did badly for my languages and my compo wrote out of point. Sad right? However,I did well for Maths, Geo, History and the other subjects. I did not expect my art to be that terrible and I thought the drawing of the sunflower gave me a lot of marks but it ended up that i only got a B4. I Got a GOLD for my NAFA despite having an injury before!

Holidays are here and I still have to go back for my CCA. Mon and thurs from 9am to 4pm!!!! Isnt that crazy?? 6 hours It is for every week until the Japan trip that I am looking forward to.I am going to 3 countries during Dec hols. How exciting it is! ByeBye and good luck people! Have a nice Holiday!

Finally can go outing with friends! I went ice-skating!!!

U know what happened? I went ice-skating! at Kallang. It was quite expensive and I spent $18.50 because $2 I did not bring gloves. It was scary and wobbly at first and i cant even walk properly on the ground. On the ice rink, it was even scary. I clutched on to the side barriers of the ice rink and inched my way around the rink. I was scared to fall! It was slippery and I kept losing my balance because I have completely no idea how to skate. My friend was so good at it! She roller-blade before and she managed to get a hang of it. For me, ???
No background. Slowly I managed to go around the rink without touching the barriers. How delighted was I! Unfortunately, when there was one part where it was watery, I fell and landed on my knees and then slided forward. I got my gloves and jeans are wet! It was scary too because I keep on losing my balance. I kept screaming.
Frightening. My another friend was the worst! She fell 10 times and pulled me down as well. However, despite all these, I enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next ice-skating trip next time! ( but that day i had a terrible MRT trip, taking the Mrt for 1h 30 mins because we actually went to Jurongeast ice-skating and found that it was closed and came to Kallang)

Exams are really over. relaxing in class

Pathetic. Now in school.... Right after the post-exam activities. HeHe Exam is over and I am here now in the library slacking. Recess is going to be over in 5 min and i still have 1h more to play cards. Haha=D

Exams are in 6 days time. I have so many homework to do over the weeekends! 4 essays and 2 examination papers! so I have to

NO PENCILBOX BUT ZIPLOCK BAG.It is seems that we are preparing for PSLE or O'levels. I just don't understand why must they make it so strict. Some of them even have too much stress and fall sick.

Long time ago....

Hello people.....finally back to blogging again. It have been months since I posted on April

School times are more and more stressful these days and tomorrow is National day celebration and I am going to perform!
haha. I will be wearing a red shirt and jeans, red and white ribbons tied on my hair and red shoelaces! I am really so excited to perform in front of the school with my trumpet! It is such an honour to see your classmates see you dancing with it.

However, band is very tough, it is so competitive and the conductors will test me and two other better players because we are going to JAPAN to meet another JAPANESE band which have high standards. I must master all the songs and this gives me lots of stress because I am very scared that I am too lousy to perform although I have already paid. Every band practice, conductors will always test us. Furthermore,I am taking my Grade 1 trumpet!!!!

Anyway, nowadays, i really don't wish to go....it is so tiring......

08/08/08 is tomorrow! Olympics opening ceremony! Hope everything comes well on tomorrow!

Hello again!

I know my blog is kind of dead......I will try my best to blog atleast an entry every month.

Tomorrow is Labourday so I am quite relaxed! I can sleep late and wake up early!No test heard of until the later part of the month I think!

Something bad happened last week! My toe was injured because of anger,then later part I went to the hospital!!! I have learnt a terrible lesson and everyday when I see that drawer, it keeps reminding me of that incident. For your information, my toe is not healed yet!!!I also miss my NAFA test!!!!!!Hate it...

Another thing also happened and it seemed like an April's fool day that day.On a Saturday afternoon,I took out my trumpet and wanted to blow it and practice at home.Guess What? I could not find my mouthpiece!I was searching all around the house and was ranting like a maniac.My father called my mother who was out to go to Plaza Singapura to but another. I went to tution after that.After tution,I went to PLaza Singapura to see which mouthpiece was suitable for the trumpet as there were different sizes.I brought along my trumpet too! One mouthpiece causes $50-$80! The salesperson lifted the trumpet up and then a part-timer person who was working there saw something weird about the trumpet.There was something in the bell inside the trumpet! It was the mouthpiece stuck inside! Actually,that person thought I had a special edition of trumpet because there was something stuck inside the bell then how to blow then.Everybody laughed and mymum thanked that person for saving her $50-$80.So,we wasted 2hours and petrol for the car to drive me all the way to Plaza Sing.

OK,so late already,Byebye!=D

Have a nice day!

Today!!!! Band Practice

Exciting day of my life..

Today woke up at 7.30....Reach school at 8.20

DO u know what happened? The band room was flooded due to the rain seeping through the doors! Instruments, cases, scores were totaLLY WET. I was lucky that I brought back my trumpet or else it may have drowned and died. haha. Today was so kiosk in the band room, drying scores at the canteen saving "drowned" instruments and wiping it dry.Everyone was stuck outside band room waiting to take out their instruments to play but it was so wet. I can't believe that the band room is underground and it is still flooded.We played in the canteen because of that. The seniors in the trumpet team taught us how to play properly and test us some scales we need to know. The seniors were way so good at playing! we learn until the high C but they can play until the Higher C! It was so high, so beautiful and well-played. Compared to us, we were way below their standard. Perhaps they are older than us and have learned more notes than us. We were quite embarrassed as they were asking us to play ode to joy, merrygoround,twinkle little star whereas they were playing nice and majestic songs. I really waant to be like them one day.. Trumpet!!!

In the afternoon, it was an interesting day. I met up with Jolene to buy a PrimaDeli cake to celebrate the March babies. We enjoyed ourselves playing cards. stress and boys were playing billard and refused to eat the cake.. I don't care as hey have missed the chance. They said on diet...... can't believe it.

It is inddeeedd a enjoyable and fun day, meeting up with past friends and playing with them. i did not expect to have so many people coming to this gathering. Perhaps should invite lesser people next time! Hope there will be another one next month, as this can strengthen our friendship. Hope it will be more fun than this one....

Third day...

Wednesday......... woke up at 8,45! Later and Later!

At 10.00am, I went down to the clubhouse to study with Jolene. Time to study already, I completed half of my homework and I became so happy for the rest of the day.. haha.. only half. Jolene went to my house in the afternoon to do her project work on MSN with her friends. What was I doing? I was actually playing my TRUMPET! I find it very weird to play it at home as compared to the band room it is extraordinary loud or maybe it is more quiet in my house. Jolene tried blowing the trumpet but she kept laughing because of the sound produced while she is blowing. She said it was very difficult and I totally agree.It was kiosk after that, not going to tell u what happened. Other than that, there was renovation in my neighbours house! The neighbour looks and name is still a mystery to us. I hope our new neighbours were not the type that we have seen on TV, rowdy kind, unhappy kind. Hope so...the construction works were so noisy that I nearly put cotton wools in my ears ...JK. I think I heard some music coming out from the house and I suppose that the construction workers are have a mini karoake while constructing. Humorous right? It is true I think. It is simply annoying! The notice on the door says that hacking works will only be done on 5,6 7 March.. It had already passed but worse.. Drillings knockings.

They say they will move in by April... How long can I tolerate such a noise!!! 2nd Hate- Noisy constuction works at neighbours' house!

2nd day! Band Practice

It was in the morning at 7.45 when I woke up! Band Practice from 9 to 12! Quite bored but I managed to get the lighter case to put my beloved baby in!(TRUMPET!) I decided to bring it back home then and.. PRACTiCE. I don't wish to be tranferred out from trumpet! I Love Band CSB Cedar Symphonic Band. In the Band we have squat too! Surprised? we must stand straight and stamp our feet in the band room at the end of every band practice. I did not manage to play the concert C major as I had some difficulty in blowing it. Playing the trumpet does not sound easy. It is very hard at first and when u learn to reach the high notes it ets more difficult. There is always another wall to climb over after u have completed another. from C to G to A to B to higher C.. that is what I am mastering now. Practice makes perfect!!!! A trumpet have three valves and it sounds HIGH! My seniors are great! They can play so HIGH>>>>>>

Today is a wet day.. March is always a wet day.... Hate raining all of the sudden. Sis went to Australia to explore crabs in Christmas Island for 1 week! She left last Thursday. She just came back from camp and she is going to another country again.. Unfair.....so lucky.....

First day!

Super excited. I thought I would be able to rest and relax then as I have so many days to do my homework! I am wrong..... Watching my favourite show ZHU MENG. It was so exciting! Zhu Meng is a hero whose father wish was to save the people( guchaoxianyiming) but he died eventually as he was fooled by the enemy. Everyone liked his father and treated him as a hero but he also have lots of enemies. Zhu Meng was not born yet when he went missing. Nobody knows that his mum had the hero's child because she was married to a prince who also knows her situation that it was dangerous to live alone as the enemy of his father will kill her if they finds out. The prince became the emperor and had two wives. The first wife was very jealous of Zhu Meng's mother and hated them. She had two sons who also wanted to become the next emperor.Zhu Meng grew up and became mischievous as he was too pampered. The emperor was very angry with him and decided chase him out of the palace. There he met a man in a mountain jail where nobody ever knows except those who were guarding it. That man was blind but yet he was very good at fighting. He thought him how to fight well but nevertheless he did not know that he was actually his father. The father was killed by one of the sons(daisu) of the first wife, but before his death, Zhu Meng and his mother finally knows about his identity. Zhu Meng knew his fathers' wish and wanted to complete it and also revenge for the death of his father. He became very good at fighting and through a contest, the first wife and the two sons were flabbergasted at his outmost progress. They became afraid suddenly and planned to kill both of them. The story continued as he brings the guchaoxianyiming to another land out of his own country and saved many lives, reuniting korea.

It is indeed a wonderful show that u all should watch, I am still watching it halfway. I love it! I knew the ending as Evangeline told me. It is way so thrilling.There is no regrets after all. The story is full of hatred,love and anxiety! Interesting! Although it is a gudai korean show, u can learn lots of chinese words from it too... thats why my father allows me to watch it.. haha

Band Prac the next day... Trumpet!!
