Finally I have some time to update, but I'm feeling rather tired. It must have been the drills and captain's ball match on Friday, the concert, yesterday's swimming and concert and today's band practice. I shall start with Friday.

If I still remember correctly, we had band practice in the air con hall in the morning. Mr Chua came and conducted his pieces as well as ran through Holiday Treats and Santa's Christmas Symphony. I did not even understand the pieces. 2 more weeks to the concert and we are still sight reading what we are going to perform for the concert. This is unbelievable.

I had lunch at block 85 and then went back for drills. The sun was doing a great job providing me with a tan that I very badly want. This is the first time in months I am doing drills. It's very fun to do drills. I just like it.

After drills, we played captain's ball. All thanks to my idea, we won the other team by 1 ball after losing 0-1 in the first half. Anyway, after the game, my father fetched me home. Thankfully he was on leave or I wouldn't know how I would go home, bathe and have a quick meal before going for the concert at night.

The concert wasn't that great nor impressive. I feel that the tuba section is slightly overpowering and what I heard was more of notes rather than music. The oboist was very good though. I like the tone and the expression and phrasing.

We went to downtown east after the concert to have supper and I ate at least one and a half packet of fries. All the calories that had been burnt in the afternoon was replenished.

Saturday morning my mother woke me up and asked me if I wanted to swim. I was very lazy and I wanted to carry on sleeping but after thinking of the amount of fries I ate the night before, and the fact that my sleep was interrupted, I decided to go swimming. I swam around 30 laps before getting tired and bored. I really wonder how some people can swim continuously for a few hours. It just gets so boring swimming up and down the lane and doing nothing else.

I went to the JC concert at night. The concert was quite good although I was unable to appreciate more than half of the pieces, especially those Chinese sounding ones. If they had performed pieces that are more common, maybe I would have enjoyed the concert more.

Jun Jie and Steffi got a free ride home from my father. This is unbelievable. They got a free ride home after a free concert.

I woke up at around 8 this morning and went back to sleep after replying some SMS-es and sending some SMS-es. I was really tired after so many full days and so many activities.

The band practice at Mus' Art went on quite smoothly. Roller Coaster was really difficult to sight read. Everything was so fast that I ended up following a bassoonist just to find out that I was actually playing at the wrong place. It's a little hard to explain it here. Anyway, I like the Concerto for oboe. It sounds very classical and it's very soothing. The only thing was that the room was a little too cold and I was very hungry halfway through the practice.

I think I am really going broke. Every note and coin I have in my wallet does not stay for more than 1 day. I ought to learn how not to spend so much and save my money. Right now, I still have to buy a box of reeds and treat 7 people lunch but I do not have any money.

Anyone who knows of any part time job with very flexible hours and reasonable pay please let me know. I am desperate for money.
