Update on MB

I can play some songs on french horn now. It looks retarded to tell you the truth. i mean, when you sit down and bend at an angle so that you can play it. i can play, "ode to joy" and " twinkle twinkle little star" on it. which is a lot harder than it might sound like. Plus, they let me bring home the mouth piece to practice on. although i don't really see the point of sounding like a mental duck.

Weather for tomorrow:
Reasonably sunny whole day long. weekends are always sunny. they have to be. i hope.

Update on CCA

Went to band practice today. It was really quite fun, actually.  Except for the part when you had to press your lips real hard against the blow hole thingy. i think that's what it's called. i was too busy trying to stop my mouth from exploding to hear anything really.
So anyway, the instrument i tried out today was the french horn. It was ok i guess. i had to press my lips together and do that,"pllllluuurrrhhhhh' thing with your mouth. And in the process spitting out all the saliva you've got. So you end up with a really wet trumpet. as in literally. You have to sort of twirl it around to get the saliva out of the tube thing. yeah, it was quite gross, but still, fun.
Anyway, next week i'm gonna be trying out the trumpet. Which sounds much, much, easier.
I also tried out the saxophone. which i'm terrible at.  I couldn't even make a sound no matter how hard i tried. so i guess i'll be sticking to brass instruments for quite some time.
Art club wise? i dunno. I mean, i haven't exactly had any confirmation, but i told one of the seniors that i wouldn't be coming tomorrow. and she said," yeah, i know." hopefully that means that i'm out of art club for good. i think.
I also can't wait for tomorrow's mid-autumn festival thing held at school. although i don't really see how i might be able to enjoy stuffing myself full of mooncakes which i don't really like.

Weather report for tomorrow:
Sunshine in the morning, Stormy in the afternoon, party party party all night.
Beware of hail storm art club members. who might ask me too much questions about the CCA thing. Otherwise, brilliant weather.

Live REPORT: art club ( com lab)

Just told the teacher in charge of art club about me joining military band.
I went up to the teacher(Mr.A), And said," Erm...I'm Quiting Art Club." And then he displayed that philosophical look, you know, the one where you stroke your beard and think.( yeah, he did have a beard but he didn't exactly stroke it.) He said," Why do you want to quit?"
I said," Erm.. I think that art club is very stressful and like, i want to have a change for once since i had been in art club all my life." Then he did that...thinking...thinking...look, and said," Think about it." and asked me to go back to my work. Wow.
So that's that. But i'll force a direct answer out of him in due course. I mean, Why can't he just say," yeah, ok, sure. bye!" and just get on with it? But either way, i'm going to band practice and thats the end of it.

Weather Report:
Tomorrow promises clear skies with a hint of sun shine. maybe cloudy in the afternoon, i'm not sure really. But i'll bet you there'd be weather warfare in due course. maybe friday. since it's art club day.

ABOLUTELY TERRIFIC NEWS!!!!!!

As you can tell by the title, I am absolutely in rainbow land. HOORAY!!!!!!!!! I think i might have conquered a place in military band. This is ABSOLUTELY FAB NEWS!!!!!!!!! although i would have to march in the sun for...quite some time... but well, it beats sitting on a stool for 3 hours. So i am ALL for joining MB.
Also, EOY exams are just around the corner. Which is well....not exactly what you may call nice. but as the french say...c'est la vie.... or whatever that is.
So, anyway, I know i haven't been around posting much, but it's just that I was quite busy this week....
PLAYING COM!!!!!
Just kidding.
But either way, i am quite a bit worked up on exams. I mean, Ms. A said to us today during english,"Your exams are just 2 weeks away," or something. Now that completely blew me off. I was like, Wait. WHAT?! two weeks? ok, I have to START FREAKING OUT NOW! But not today. maybe later. or next week.
So anyway, during lunch, Our chinese teacher offered two tickets to the Mid Autumn Festival thing our school is having on friday night. Wei Qian and i went as bonker-ish as my grandma in a nut shop. Althoguh we'd probably be stuffing ourselves full of mooncakes and tea... Well, I mean, an excuse to stay out on friday night?! YEAH MAN!!! BRING IT ON!!!!!
And this is end Rachel's not-so-daily-news.

12:33pm

bored bored bored bored. please just let school start already. i think i might die of excessive bored-ness. ok, so on the bright side, I have finally completed my homework!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, except for a few... questions. pages. nevermind.
So anyway, here is a list of stuff that i've been doing over the holidays:
- Training myself to be able to eat spicy food. which isn't turning out to be very enjoyable.
- making a capo out of pencils and like, ten million rubber bands. ( a capo, as in, that guitar thing)
-cleaning up my study table.not.
-all night YouTube marathon
-all day computer-maniac-ish-type-thing
-well. that's it really.
You know, I can really see myself in the future as some computer geek in a dark room....sitting there, all alone. Man do i have to get a life.
But how? I mean, you can't exactly do much outdoor stuff in singapore. Unless you'd like to be choked to death by car fumes and smoke. And i can't exactly do anything much. since mostly everything fun is against the law. but either way, I'll see what i can do. hmmm. sounds like hard work.
I also had the strangest dream that i was in a helicopter-type-airplane. And i crashed.
I think i was incepted. not.
