So band camp's over...bathing with warm water in school at night is definitely a luxury...
Anyways, I'm damn tirrrreeedddd....
I HAD MACS FOUR TIMES THIS WEEK!!!! MUST ABSTAIN!!! MUST!!!
I guess the camp was pretty much alright and it was quite slack...
Met up with the ExCo the night before the camp for dinner at KAP...then headed back to the bandroom to watch Kakashi (LOL!! From the producers of Ring O...like wth!!). The storyline was rather plain and I wasted 80 mins of my life -.- DOH! Then, we watched How I Met Your Mum on Ernest's laptop. It's quite funny.
The next day I was actually feeling quite shitty. I didn't know why...and still don't know why. So anyhow, the day started with Amos buying my breakfast for me - coffee. And the day was pretty much combined, sectionals, combined, sectionals. Then at about lunch time, I decided to just have blueberry tea for lunch, and then I headed over to ACJC to meet Martin for the payment and collection of MUSE tickets.
And it was then...when I got 3 blisters on my feet just from walking from ACSI to ACJC. Don't ask me how it happened, I've got no idea as well.
We made Oliver a bolster named Claire in the afternoon =X
Swopped slippers with Teow and Amos =))
Prac for Perc Ensemble - Excalibur & Marching Season
Everyone in my dorm had new names
Me - Amy (pronouced Ar-mi)
Oliver -Tranny Leow / Vajajay
Ryann - Rihanna
Ernest Soh - Bangala Soh
Ernest Tan - Evita
Bevan - Moby
Rama - Chocolate Boy
We compiled a list of scandals entitled: The Vajajay Chronicles =X
Left for VCH in the evening and kinda arrived early, so Ernest, Ernest, KW and I decided to go to O'Briens for coffee.
Then it was MUSE...MUSE...and MUSE. Feste Romane sounded good. Although I thought it'd probably make a better finale piece as compared to Scheherazade. I remember people getting excited when they saw the blue backing of the conductor score for Scheherazade and then you hear "last page!!!". I guess it was a heavy concert.
When we got back to school, I was still feeling moody, and it dawned upon me that I only had coffee for breakfast, blueberry tea for lunch, and green tea for dinner. My appetite was dead that day. And I wasn't feeling hungry a single bit...speaking to Abraham about my insecurities kinda made me felt much better. Then it was more How I Met Your Mum.
The second day came along...and the moody feeling kinda wore off. It was a good thing I suppose. Had sports in the afternoon - soccer, captain's ball, basketball...and more blisters...
Well, there were many others who got injured.
Ismail chipped his toenail
Rama had a cramp and decided to pour cold water over his calf... thinking it'd help..but only made it worse (gosh...so himbotic!)
Oliver pulled his hamstring
Ordered Macs at night...and more How I Met Your Mum
Day 3 came along, more Combined and Sectionals, interviewed ExCo applicants in the afternoon, had BBQ in the evening, then night games, was running around snapping shots. Hahaha....after the games it was Macs (AGAIN!) and How I Met Your Mum (AGAIN!)
The last day was practice-heavy compared to the previous few days...and the new ExCo is selected =))).
It's kinda sad knowing that this is my last camp as an ExCo member of the band, and this is my last camp with the ExCo 06-07. Although we might have got scolded by the teachers and Dr Lee, I believe that we've done our best to run the band, and made the right decisions given the situation...I'll really miss working with these people, the ExCo lunches, dinner, the bitching and all...we should have a meal together soon before we step down =)))...
ExCo 06-07 Amos, Oliver, Ernest, Ryann, Ernest, Kah Wei, Bevan, Darren James , David
Gotta get ready for perc ensemble tomorrow...
...but words will never hurt me; 9:16 PM.
