Today, went for the National Band Competition concert at Victoria Concert Hall with the band members. Woke up at 6.23 am and then showered. Watched tv till 7 am then went to Zhao Xun's place without any breakfast. He was still sleeping sia... Lols. So rang his doorbell umpteen times till his sister opened the door. Hahaha, too bad uh. Zhao Xun was 'forced' to wake up. So, waited till he's ready to go then went ahead to Ying Jie's place. So, waited for Ying Jie to finish drinking his cup of Milo then we went to Bedok Interchange. Went to Macdonald's after reaching Bedok. Ordered Big Breakfast and ate alone as Ying Jie, Zhao Xun, Bing Chao, Melvin and Jeffery had eaten. Waited for Joel to come and didn't expected Winston to come along as well. So, at 9.15, those who were at Macdonald's went over to the grass patch. So Khairuddin after a moment at the grass patch. So, Khairuddin, Winston, Joel and me chatted amongst ourselves while the band are doing some neccessary paper works. Charlotte sat at a nearby bench as she was sick. I bought a bottle of mineral water for her. So, after everything was done, everyone went to the MRT station. Both me and Joel took the upper brass section while both Khairuddin and Winston took the lower brass section. So, alighted the MRT at City Hall station and walked to Esplanade. But, thanks to Joel, we were headed the wrong way. Hahaha.. So, walked another way around and this time, I took the woodwind section instead. So, walked and walked till we reached on time for the next batch of schools playing. So, listened and watched to the batch of schools playing. It was worthwhile coming to the 2nd NBC concert. So, it was interval break from 12.30 pm to 2.15 pm. So, we headed to Macdonald's. I led everyone to Macdonald's. After eating, we walked through the restaurants and pubs along the corridor. Went into a provision shop. Then everyone went in sia. Blocked my way uh. Then Byron fucking IRRITATING sia ! Knn. Kept on pestering me to buy 'Skittles'. =.= People guai lan uh, bo bian... Then, Zhao Xun, more zai, tried to buy a bottle of 8% alcohol drink but failed, as he was not even 18 years of age. Hahahaha. Wait for another 4 years lahh. Lols ! So, after that went back to the concert hall. Then, most of them wanted to go and watch our school's 'Drumline' at Suntec City. So, they just went ahead. After a number of schools played their repertoire, they came back. Then, waited till the last batch of schools. The batch ended at 7.30 pm and then, it was the results. Tanjong Katong Girl's Secondary si bei zai sia. They screamed and cheered when their results was announced. They got Gold. They were filled with joy and kept on cheering. So, all of us waited outside of the concert hall till Tanjong Katong Girl's Secondary came out as Khairuddin, Wintson, Joel and me wanted to wait for them. So, before we went back to Bedok, we cheered for them and congratulated them and they thanked us and asking us which band we were from. So, we told them that we were from Ping Yi Marching Band. After a moment, there was a display of fireworks. It was better and even nicer than last year's fireworks display. It was my first time watching it right in front of my eyes alongside with my friends. It was an enjoyable night and worthwhile. In total, there were 3 displays. After watching, we went to the MRT station. Went back to Bedok and ate at Macdonald's. So, treated Qistina to a McChicken meal then, Siti came by, crying. Qistina just threw everything on the table and went to tend to her. I knew all along what had happened. So, after eating, went home with Ying Jie, Zhao Xun, Wah Jing, Ming Kwang and Gowtham.

Yesterday, things went as per normal. Went to school with Zhao Xun. Then met the band members at the canteen as usual... Hahaha. So, had 2 hours of Science. While having lessons, Khairi went into my classroom. Then, Zhang Yang made some comments saying that, asking Khairi to leave the classroom. Too bad uh, I was in a foul mood so, I insulted Zhang Yang till 'kee siao'. Then Lionel Poh 'kpkb' and Khairi was still in my classroom. Aiya, people Sec 3 liao, so what ? Can step big fuck uh ? Knn, Sec 3 nia want 'guai lan' with 'lim bei' ? Kns lah deyy. So, after school had band practice. As usual, the Sec 1s have to go for their theory lessons at Mdm Nava's Homeroom while the main band had combined music at multi-purpose room and then shifted to Mr Chan's homeroom. While the main band were having their combined music, Winston, Joel and me helped out both Yilian and Jolene in the UIC department stuff. Sorted out the uniforms in sizes and packed them nicely into boxes. In the first place, there was no box. So, Yilian wanted some and I volunteered to go and get some. Checked at the dumpster at the security post, but it was all dirtied. So, went to the canteen dumpster. It was not dirtied nor had any stench. So, I took any box which was still intact and brought it up to the band room. At first, everyone did not know that it was all from the canteen dumpster. So, when Yilian needed somemore boxes and asked Joel to get it, I said that Joel couldn't stand the smell so I got them myself. At that point then they were shocked. Hahaha. So, I told them that they were all from the canteen dumpster. But, there was no stench. So, collected a few more boxes from the canteen dumspter once more. Then, Jolene checked out the uniforms for the correct amount. Size 'S' should have 31 but she got 30 instead. So, she was all tensed up and stressed. So, I went and checked for size 'S' in the stacks of size 'M' uniform. Finally, found it at last. Hahaha. She was glad as she didn't want any uniform to be lost. So, did everything when Jolene said that size 'L' was missing one. So, checked and checked but couldn't find any. It was not missing, just that she was being paranoid, as what Yilian claimed. Hahaha. Then, bought some food and drinks for them. Both me and Ibrahim went out and bought a 1.5 litre of Ice Lemon Tea, two cups of bubble tea from 'Sweet Talk' and cheese fries from 'Tropical'. Gave everyone their refreshments and then, I went ahead to find the main band. They were at Mr Chan's homeroom. So, I went in and they were practising on 'Blue Ridge Saga'. Some were a little rusty and for the trombonist, it was not so clear at bar 12 onwards. After that, they practiced on 'Accolada'. It was quite good as most have already knew how the rhytm and tempo goes. After 'Accolada', Norman asked the main band to take out their 'I Recommend'. So, they used 'I Recommend' and played some chords and scales. After that, packed everything and went into the Music Room. As they went in the Music Room after packing, they made damn hell lot of noise. Shouting here and there, playing like small children. Wah Jing kept on shouting and asking the band to lower down their volume, but still, it was of no use. They didn't even respect him and the seniors, they still kept on doing what they did. Then, Wah Jing said that, if anyone were to talk, then the whole band have to do 100 Jumping Jacks. Lols ! Seriously, whenever there's punishement made then they would shut the hell up. So, after the dismissal, SLs had meeting with Wah Jing and Ming Kwang, then Yilian called for Zhao Xun due to Logistic's Department's duties were not done properly. So, after that went to the bubble tea shop with Ying Jie and Zhao Xun, then saw the bus at the bus stop, Wah Jing, Zhao Xun, Ying Jie and me ran all the way to the other bus stop and the back end. So, ran all the way and boarded the bus.




It all ends here now. ;D
