Drills was fun!
We had drills, like what we did during band camp
The one when someone does the drills wrongly, that person have to fall out
Later, we did CHICKEN DANCE!
Haha:D

BAND CHEER
We did the band cheer today, after drills (:
I hope we will do it before and after POLKA! IV

SECTIONALS!
Practiced Carmen and the other pieces
I stil could not play the semiquavers
AH ):
But overall, the pieces were okay, but still need a lot of improvement
PRACTICE!

Chatted during break, it was funny:D
Then, resumed sectionals

The day passed quite fast today ):
I really, really want to improve
The reed's now okay, but it is still kind of hard

After Band, went to fetch Jing Wei from tuition
Lunch, then back home
Fell asleep ._.

Hi!

We had to write our questions on the post-its and paste it on the board
Rather interative (:

I just came back from school, Band!:D
I'm feeling very sweaty and stinky):

Today, after completing my artwork (halfway!), we went with Ms Karen to the War Memorial Ceremony.
From 2/3, Jin-Ni and I went.
The atmosphere was solemn
There were quite a number of people, but of course, due to space limitation, the schools could only send a few representative.
There were total of 1000+ students, teachers, and guests

It was an experience
The ceremony started late
And it ended at 10am

Returned to school, had recess, resumed class

BAND!:D
Practiced Andrew Lloyd and went through pieces (:
Stayed back for self-practice

Happy Belated Valentine's Day!

Yeah, bad

After all the group phototaking/ eating of Kueh Bangkit
My family and my cousin's family went to J8 to watch CJ7
长江七号
徐娇 was really a good actress
七仔 was so cute!
The movie was sort of hilarious, but was also saddening

After the movie, we had dinner at some cafe
Can't remember the name of it
Then we all headed for my house(:
More relatives came
Haha!:D
Chatted and watch Stephen Chow's 功夫足球
Watched it before, so was not very interested in it.
