Solololo...

...................

right... mr lim asked me to look through the solo part for weber's invitation to a dance.. so that means adriel and i will be 'fighting' for principal seat... well, i screwed up when i played it the first time, which was last thursday... it was fine at the beginning, til i screwed up 2 bars of it in the middle section... argh!! haiz.. i practiced so hard for it!! and it ends up like that.. oh well.. i dunno.. i asked my teacher to help me with it, and she did a great bunch of work on it.. she's good i tell you... she taught me a whole lot of things, important articulation and bow control which i've never thought of.. well, lets just see how it goes the next time i'm playing it, if mr lim considers it that is... adriel will be playing next on saturday, and i wont be going for rehearsal cause nafa is having rehearsal... oh yes, thats another interesting topic...

well, darrell ang is here to conduct us for our next concert.. well, he may be good for professional orchestras, but the whole of nafa agrees on one thing, we dont like him and he cant take students, or professionals-in-training.. he will remain as another legacy, one which the students of nafa will start rising up against... its really funny i tell you... the extent to which we hate him is unthinkable in the music society.. well, its not really about his conducting.. he qued the brass players at the wrong places, scolded them for not practicing their parts when they actually did but was wrong because he qued them in wrongly, actually editing the composer's score (when the composer is my lecturer), and suggested going to every individual wind player's house to give them private coaching... i mean, which conductor would offer to do that??!! its madness!! well, some of us thinks he has other motives for doing that, but thats not for you guys to know.. =p

so, our concert is actually next week, wednesday at nafa theatre, and they invited the music big shots.. lim soon lee, lim yau, chan tze law etc.... yea, wait til mr lim (soon lee) sees me playing.. i wonder what he will say next during the next syo rehearsal...

i watched battel royale at seng fu's house a couple of days ago.. its sick i tell you... SICK... its a japanese show.. its about this class of students who were chosen by the government to be sent to a reomote deserted island to kill each other until only one survivor remains.. it is sick.. imagine killing your own classmates.. they have to, because each of them has a metallic device strapped onto their necks.. if there is no winner at the end of the 3rd day, the collar would explode, ripping your neck off, and of course killing you.. so throughout the movie, you can see human desperation, madness and sometimes trust... but its really disturbing... i still cant put myself to understand how people can kill their friends.. if it was me, i would rather hide in a safe place, not kill anybody, and just die on the 3rd day.. but of course, i may not be sane enough to do that when the time comes... oh yes.. forgot.. each of them has a unique weapon given to them.. those who are lucky gets guns, crossbows, knives or other useful devices.. those who are really suay get paper fans, binoculars, cooking pot lid, and other stupid stuffs... well, sick... thats all i can say about this movie.. it seems japan is always the one coming up with stupid things...
