reached home at 5.30, dilly-dally-ed a bit, bathed, dinnered,
rushed off at 6.30 for practice!
reached mus'art at 8.15!!!
waiting time for bus 334 was more than 15 minutes la!!!
and i had a shock when i saw only four percs, and conductor mr willy tan!
kinda relieved that ds wasn't there...!
turns out that most of them went for the patti ballinas (spell?) drum clinic.
played this reallllllyyyy slowwwwwww and super boring song called adagio which was quite a setback because it revealed all my mistakes!!!
my marimba roll, transition from one note to the next, was faaaaarrrr from smooth.
dang.
i was like omans, gotta work hard on this!!!!! :(
another piece we sight-read which required four mallet technique which i wasn't that comfortable with, YET.
vibraphone, difficult to play sia!
depress, release, blahblahblah so ma fan!!! i have not mastered! YET.
the bestest piece was mission impossible ---> mission possible!
my part was marimba, accompaniment, so it was pretty easy.
and when everyone played together, it sounded hmmm not bad!!
the girl majoring in percussion in laselle is like damn pro!
i wanna be like her!!!
percussionists should be all-rounders. if you can't play mallets at all then you shouldn't even be considered a percussionist. drummerboy, join some other club la! bleahhhh how many times have i repeated this. zzzzzzzzz.
didn't join the rest for macs after prac.
two-hour ride back home!!! ahhhh!!!! shaggggggggg!!!
ecp drained all my energy~~!!!!
xiaotouxiaotouxiaotou~~~~!!!!!!
