near perfect

weekend has passed, and it was a interesting one. well... it all started out on friday afternoon. Dreads, sitting in EP for 2 hours listening to 9 groups of presentation where 8 of them covered on the same photographer. ouch! my ear hurts.. by the end of the lesson, the history of the photographer is drilled into my head. Lolz... Basically after that went down to queensway shopping centre with joel, both of us shopping for a backpack, and i am also looking for a camping bag, saw a few but still undecided yet. passing by clarke quay on the way to town, we remember that there is a music shop there, selling instruments, so decided to get off and visit the shop, but its close, went back later in the evening, wow... i am stunned by the large amount of instruments, new and old. Negotiating for my french horn, Holten of course, think i will get it soon. anyway, joel and i play around with the instruments, and the shop owner doesn't seem to care.. hahaa.. think he trust us in handling the instruments, we are musicians. fun fun.. going back there some time soon.

Saturday, OOP walkthrough, also OOP dateline, well i didn't manage to complete the assignment, there is still some errors in the coding but can't solve the error, programming is really not my forte. oh well, think i should be able to pass. God Bless. Band was rather "interesting", i am suffering from headache due to lack of sleep and the trumpets were screaming into my ears throughout the practice, ouch! Became the tuner of the section, LoLz, Mr Tan was using me to tune the other horns. following that, went to music essential to hunt for scores, manage to find the beethoven sonata which was played by one of the masterclass student. happenly, it was one of my grade8 horn piece, so i bought it. oh yah, i decided to take grade 8 for french horn next year. Eager to try out. LoLz. Wish me luck.

Sunday, stayed at home, didn't want to go to church, and also decided not to go clarke quay to test out the horn. jus want to stay at home. evening went to my grandparents's place to collect my medicine, had dinner there and went home. I should say, ever since my uncle, Ben Tan and family left to korea, weekends at pasir ris is rather cold. my uncles n family seldom go there now. when i was there, uncle patrick when to pick up food for his family and gave me a ride home. i didn't stay there for more than an hour. Miss those days where everyone was there, makes the weekends a lively place to be with all the small kids around. things are not going to be the same...

Today, piano lesson, was late again, 2nd time in a row. Well, did jazz again and the third piece for my piano grade 8 exams. fun fun fun. except got irritated by this primary school kid on the way there, rudeness rule his mind, it seems kids of the same race are like that, i am not being racist. more like its a cultural thing. had supper with joel and happen to saw jefferson at Bt Panjang plaza. chat while eating and now sitting here blogging away. oh! and i didn't go to school today.
