As promised, here's today's post.. As said in yesterday's post, i went for the clarinet ensemble practice today. Unlike the one frm the previous practice, the ensemble only consisted of three people, namely malcolm, ivan and myself. This time, there was three clarinetists frm the bradell heights symphony which are two japanese ladies and one malay guy who was the principal player in the orchestra. Sharizan of course and one German clarinetist that was a PR in Singapore who was actually using a German clarient. For those who didn't know, the German clarinet does not follow the Bohem-system in which the keys have been changed to make keywork and fingering simpler. Certainly was an eye-opener. Anyway, we sight read a feel pieces, kinda bad but was better than i expected myself to be. Hopefully future practices would be better. Went to zion for and hour den went to eat ban mian downstairs. Went home, continued playing warcraft, ate dinner, blogging, talking to people who request for practice to stand down for sec 4s. But seriously, if u had planned ur time properly den this kinda thing wouldn't happen. Many of our past band members can be testimonies of such achievement, its not that if ur devoted to band that ur results must suffer. Furthermore, its just for two more months. U telling me that u will use 100% of the time u're supposed to spend in band on studying? If u can look me in the eye and say that, go ahead. But to those who can't, dun use band as an excuse not to study. Use band as a reason to study, because the band has taught u not only music but also lifeskills that u can apply to every aspect of ur life. If u think its unfair, tell u something, u're not the only one. Why do some people not complain at all? U think its because that they dun care? well, u're wrong... People do care and band is not something that u can just chuck aside once u have something better to do. That's all i have to say... Hope that u guys would think abt it.
