Cancellation Of Sectional Outing

Posted by: ohyay on: June 18, 2009

Again, for the 16876516578414857th time, I must add. Tsktsk, it’s hard to coordinate something when there’s more than 20 people in the main band currently (I think?) and a handful of people in the alumni band (more than 10?).
HuiQing called me yesterday and she sounded stressed, because this is a highly impossible task. Some can [...]

Boohoohoo

Posted by: ohyay on: May 31, 2009

Been sleeping rather early these few days, against my original intention. I blame it on the flu. Why must I be sick now when it’s the holidays! Or else I’d have excuses to miss school.
I have to do PW, which is a pain in the ass. Stupid subject, I can’t wait for it to be [...]

Outing?

Posted by: ohyay on: May 18, 2009

Am supposed to be doing PW research right now, but I just remembered my conversation with HuiQing on Friday after A².
We were talking and suddenly, the idea of a sectional outing popped up. After we stepped down, we hardly got to meet up and I don’t know, do stuff. Then again, the last time we [...]

Petition

Posted by: ohyay on: April 20, 2009

I was at BP on Friday for the A² programme thing, and I heard from one of the BP band member about this petition that another band member had initiated.
I only know vaguely what the whole issue was about, because I had gone back only once like, a month or so ago, because I had [...]

Tugging At My Heartstrings

Posted by: ohyay on: February 7, 2009

Oh man.
I touched a clarinet! Haven’t been practising for around 9 months, I’m surprised that I even remember how to play! Granted, I sounded more like I was blowing air, but hey, it’s not my fault, it’s the reed! It wasn’t seasoned!
But I don’t think I’ll be joining Band, even though the idea seems really [...]

“Ignited” Concert

Posted by: ohyay on: November 15, 2008

Anyone free on the 20th of November 2008, Thursday? There’s the “Ignited” concert, at Victoria Concert Hall, at around 7.30 p.m. Tickets are priced at S$10 each.
My brother will be performing, and he’s desperately trying to sell off the tickets, I think. I’m just showing some sisterly support. Okay, not really. I just needed an excuse [...]

Retard In Pink FBT

Posted by: ohyay on: September 4, 2008

JianQin told me about the TV show, America’s Got Talent. She was amused by it, because a lot of people think they’re talented, but JianQin only saw “lots of retards”. She was laughing at them. So mean right?
I told JianQin that she should join America’s Got Talent, because she’d fit in very well. And I [...]

Sectional Chalet: Updates II

Posted by: ohyay on: September 2, 2008

Discussed this with Valerie on Monday, and I think it’s safe to say that we’ll be having the sectional chalet on the 21 – 23 November 2008, at ALOHA CHANGI.
Yeah, got that right, at Aloha Changi. I know, it lacks facilities and amenities like the swimming pool, the arcade, and basketball courts, stuff like that, [...]

Sectional Chalet: Updates

Posted by: ohyay on: September 1, 2008

Firstly, I want to say that I hate planning.
Anyway, discussed this with some of the seniors, and since the poly students will only begin their holidays from 15 December onwards, it is most probable that the section chalet will be held during the weekend.
In case you’re planning to go overseas, please keep these dates free: 28 [...]

Sectional Chalet

Posted by: ohyay on: August 24, 2008

It’s been long since I last played a clarinet. Was wondering if I even remembered how to play one, and JianQin had to demonstrate it to me yesterday night by sticking her finger into her mouth. That was the way the seniors taught us when we first joined the clarinet section, remember?
It’s been 4 months and [...]

Band Welcome/Farewell Party

Posted by: ohyay on: June 20, 2008

Went for the welcome cum farewell party on Tuesday. I came prepared this time, after going for 3 welcome and farewell parties, I more or less knew what to expect. So I brought along my soap and shampoo, as well as a change of clothes.
Played games in the morning. Got myself all dirty and smelly. [...]

And I’m Being Random Again

Posted by: ohyay on: May 10, 2008

As they say, a leopard never changes its spots, old habits die hard (or do old habits never die?) blahblahblah, yours truly is being all weird and random again.
Anyway, I went to Raffles City today by myself to get some donuts from the Donut Factory. I know this may sound crazy, going all the way [...]

Here And There

Posted by: ohyay on: April 27, 2008

Just some nonsense and random thoughts.
My rose died today. Poor poor thing. It WAS so pretty. At least it lasted for a week. I mean, do I look like someone who knows how to take care of a rose? Anyway, some of the petals were dropping a couple of days ago. I didn’t dare to [...]

Saturday

Posted by: ohyay on: April 19, 2008

Feels really strange waking up late today. For the past 6 months, I’ve been waking at around 6 a.m. every Saturday, and cursing my alarm clock, or snoozing for a couple of minutes more, then jumping out of bed and rushing around so that I wouldn’t be late for band.
I slept till 9 something this [...]

Before And After

Posted by: ohyay on: April 13, 2008

I just realize the length of my previous post. I hadn’t even notice. And I’m about to continue.
I didn’t manage to convey everything yesterday, due to the conflicting emotions and my confused state of mind. Not to mention that I typed everything out in the middle of the night.
I watched the videos on youtube just [...]

Display Band Competition 2008

Posted by: ohyay on: April 13, 2008

It’s over, just like that. I can’t believe it actually. More like, I don’t want to believe it. We got a silver. That wasn’t expected. I just thought we could at least get a gold medal. But no. That’s half a year of training in 8 minutes.
Had a really great breakfast this morning, went to [...]

BPMB

Posted by: ohyay on: April 11, 2008

Tomorrow’s the day we’ve been practising for 6 months for. For that 15 minutes. And that’s it.

Final Lap

Posted by: ohyay on: March 30, 2008

Just less than 2 more weeks to go before the SYF is over. I can’t believe it’s that fast, actually. Seems like yesterday that we had all the time in the world.
I’m really really fucking scared. I don’t know why. It’s not as if I hadn’t been through this before. But then again, maybe it’s [...]

Self-Discipline?

Posted by: ohyay on: March 23, 2008

Recently, there was this whole issue in band about ankle socks. Like, you aren’t supposed to wear ankle socks to band.
Awhile back, not much emphasis was placed on your socks, just as long as they’re visible. Mine, I must admit, cannot be seen half the time. Okay, most of the time. But when school reopened, [...]

I Am Very Normal

Posted by: ohyay on: March 15, 2008

Very normal indeed. But I just don’t know why some people think otherwise. I think those people are crazy.
Okay, maybe I’m SLIGHTLY wacky at times, but I’m still normal! I don’t have 3 eyes or 4 ears, so that makes me average. Just like everyone else. I just don’t know why some people don’t find [...]
