one more thing. about the camp anyway. which i forgot to add in.fitri came for the trumpet thing. and boy, was i shocked. anyway, he was like "band major" at me over and over again. i like it when fitri calls me band major, not others. cause HE was the one who "brought" me up over the tetra camp serously. anyway, he was the only person who really motivated me. i hardly recall any other sec 4 regent senior motivating anyone in the tetra camp. sad case. even dororin talks about kelly. our juniors wont have any motivation too? the poor sec 1s & 2s.
bedok north people just keep insisting regent can play better, i dont know how true it is, but they just dont know how much we miss out having fun. even for my batch. its always "sectionals today!!!" and never "lets have a section outing!". its always "come! lets go for a practice session at my house!" and never "how about a get together with the band?" .
its just like comparing a top school with a neighbourhood school. top schools go "lets go STUDY!" when the neighbourhood ones go "lets go and play!"
and even the teachers think that just because we are LET OFF at 6pm, means that we get to leave the school by 6:15. i was literally shocked. shows so much for knowing the band for 5 or 6 years. just 6 to 6:15 takes the time of keeping instruments and moving from the 4th floor to 1st floor especially if we'r using the range and have to move the percussion. another 15 minutes is needed for falling in, attedence and announcements. thats at least 30 minutes. not that we knew about it. we didnt. so yeah. we just followed the previous batch exco and how long they took and whatever. so it was SUPPOSED to be correct. i repeat . supposed. wrong. i'm too confused at what is wrong and correct. so i'm just gonna shut up and watch.
i want mr heng to be our band teacher.
