WElll...today...is wednesday..yeah,everyone know's that.so here's today's er...'news'.which is....i woke at 10 +...haha...then i got up...saw the com was on.i knew it was switched on by my sister...But...just in case..i went out to peek.and i was right...so i quickly log in into my account then she was complaining..WAHAHA...then i reasoned out with her that i got IT studies in the afternnon.soooo she agreeed to let me use..YEAH man..WAHAH...
Then IT studies came....was quite short this time...'cause we left only two chapters then we have the project stuff to do.Ms Yeo only want to check the introduction.and it was quite simple...so i finished it soon enough...then people were whining that i was doing music for the topic..and for God's SAKE..WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT?!?!?!?!...I LIKE MUSIC!!!there's nothing wrong ok?!?...someone mentioned that i should have do music...that's being sacarstic i felt..i know...and how i wish that band was really actually one of the topic im learning in school..but that's impossible...
So...finished it and quickly went home.Then i reached home.helped my sister play harry potter and the chamber of secrets' game...on my dad's old laptop.i played until somewhere which is sooo horrendous and the laptop was so slow...i gave up on playing that game..So,after that watched tv..called up on natalie and discussed about tml procedure's for band.How i wish that the 4 of us can really commit ourself to band and then together thikn of ways to improve the band in a aspects.but then..it seems impossible now..but maybe not.ain't trying to offend anyone..but i felt that zak and YJ aint doing their job well and nat's working too hard...i don't know about myself...maybe i ain't working hard enough..the band's not disciplined enough,then the playing is improving.which is good but then i think the band can do better.
Off to massage my dad..he say he's back aching...end here for now.

ok since i didnt blog today..so you peeps should know what i would do huh..that would beeeeee....mentioning yesterday's incident first..then today's =P.
But..so here's the incident of yesterday's..which is monday...yesterday...tiring man..woke up at 7 if i aint wrong..ok..7.30 to be more safe...(actually..nothing much...nothing about safe or not safe)....well...woke up at that time evern though there's no school!!!!...the reason is because...not something very important...but quite to someone i suppose...which isssssssssssssssss.......to accompany my grandma to the polyclinic for her check-up.so i went with her in my dad's car/van...then get to the polyclinic....waited for a no. for ages...then sit down and wait to be called..that take another age...so 2 decades gone...lol..just kidding.well..waited for at least..AT LEAST half an hour..sitting there doing nothing....WAs bored to death.could have just died down there....but..NO...that shouldn't be how i ended my life...before i end my life...i must reach the peak of my flute and piano's skills...before i die de 'ming mu' -.-...LOL!*touch wood*. Then after taking another no. for waiting to see the doctor...was long again...then i go crapping again..blabla...but it was a shorter time compare to in the early morning...the doctor was very soft...she spoke very softly...lk shy lik that..but i doumbt so la..never train to speak louder..haha...then i oso went da see the doc cuz i got cough..my dad say since its quite cheap so..go see hte doctor anyway...then my grandma didn't manage to see the doctor together with me because her profile wasn't up to the room
Man...i can assure you that she's pissed off...she was complainging to me that whole morning in the polyclinic....spend the whole morning in here and stuffs...haix..then finally it was her turn..she got mould or something in her left eye or something..then might need to go for operation..she was shocked when the doctor said that...hahaha...then after that had lunch...then i helped her queue in the bank for some stuffs..bla bla bla..then gotta rush back for school dental check-up...was late..but yet wasnt' late...cuz i was late..i mean suppose to be 2.10..i reach at 2.25...but then the dentist have not finsh checking up on my fren...my fren's was like sooo long...then my check-up was lik 5 mins only?wahahaha..then the dentist still say my teeth are in good conditions..so is my gum..goody good good.
So that's almost everything about yesterday...now for todae...woke up late..wokt at 7.30...my sister call me up..luckily man..otherwise i would be late for lesson.had chemistry for two hours non stop..tiring man...then didnt sleep enough also.argh!followed up is band.Band was Not bad at all todae!..quite nice i would say...the band did't get much scolding(which is SUPERLY good news for me)...then mr neo was very happy with today's playing..then come's the unlucky thingy of the day...
That is... sectionals....teaching Sec 1s to play songs is as hard as training a crocodile to jump...ok..not that exgerrating...but its super hard to teach them..they don't even know their fingerings,scales well yet..when playing Bb major scale still struggling..tell them to slur up..wah..so hard sia..like playing grade 8 piece like that ...man...then comes to falling in..i sounded stupid...was saying good..in a funny accent..then after band..jeremy said that my english very slang..wAHAHHAHA....lol....i will see about that..=x...so end here today...whoa..that's a lot to read..hahaha
