WE GOT THE SILVER
BUT I KNOW WE CAN DO BETTER!
KEEP GOING! :D

Well, today had been a quite emotional day for me, for us. I kept thinking about SYF during classes, and when we were rehearsing at the hall, I felt really nervous. And it was time to board the bus. Time really flies. Off we went, to SCH. And when we reached our destination, I felt reluctant to get down the bus. Thinking that its time for our band to show the judges what we can do. My hands were pespiring profusely, trembling a little. Slowly, I managed to calm down a little. Blowed warm air continously. Just a very short wait(to me), and we're supposed to go to the tuning room already. I was so afraid I would not be able to tune in time. Because its quite hard to tune in air-conditioned room. I almost broke down. I couldn't get it. It was either very flat, very sharp, a little bit flat, or a little bit sharp. So fast, we're on our way up to the hall. I waited there, nervously, I may add. *AHEM! Anddddd..............it was our turn. Walked in slowly. My flute almost slipping out of my hands already. But still I knew that I had to show them that I was confident, like many said, they can judge if a band is good or not by looking at the way they walk, etc... I felt that the chairs were arranged too close. Not used to it. In school it was so far. But anyway, when it started, well, some notes were not clear. I was to nervous. I thought I could memorise that certain bar, when actually, I looked up at mr de, I totally forgotten what was I supposed to play. I wonder if anyone actually noticed. Chorale, bar 38, screwed up big time manzxzxz. Like really, big time. I know no one actually heard it, thats probably why we still got our silver, but I can't pass my own obstacle. So yeah, we got SILVER and everyone was celebrating. But I had mixed feelings, half happy, half not. Maybe cos I really expected more, and that I could have done better. Nevermind, like everyone say, I'm only sec 2, there's still next next year! :D OK, so celebration's over, went back to school. Ate dinner with Joanne and Dorothy, and went home. Something really funny happened, shall not talk about it. BYE.
