today was chao tiring sia! phew! first get challenged mentally (physics make-up lesson), den physically (soccer), den in terms of leadership (exco meeting) and den physically again (bagpipes at annual parade rehearsal.) PHEW!
i guess yea, there's much for me to improve on as a Band Major. as in, not onli the band, but for myself. yea, i've changed a lot for e betta since taking up DYSS 6 last yr, but after thinking thru, yea, there's lots more i can do as a person, esp if i want to command e respect of e others. Not going into greater details, but yea, lotsa changes to be made, and after observing today's annual parade rehearsal, i realise that there's much more i hv to do as BM to correct e foundations and stuff first. =P
my whole body aching like siao le. longkuan couldnt sound e pipe quite a few times coz his drones kept dropping so i had to take a "main piper" role. blow and blow and squeeze and squeeze until final part realli no strength le. silence. argh! i muz master e technique of squeezing. i could do it at final rehearsal. sustained throughout, which was good, but couldnt maintain fingering. lauz. much much much to improve on! seems like we band have to concentrate on many basic stuff first if we wanna fly high! so high that ppl have to pull us down to not let us fly away! *HIGHH!(now that sounds familiar. wonder where i read this sentence b4... hmmm...)
arghz. everyone at F.O.P. i'm at home. gee!!! i wana go F.O.P!!! msn toking to 1 person onli (max, my fellow piper! XD), blogs and tagboards no one update yet, sms no one reply. gee. bored!!! muz take this oppurtunity to do hw. *faints* let me see, a new christmas song? let's try it out.
marching through e turf, with a one drone bagpipe band,
over e turfs we go, piping all e way
Pipes on beats of drums, making drill more fun,
Oh wat fun it is to pipe and march and sing Itchy Fingers tonite, YAYY!
bagpipe sounds, bagpipe sounds, bagpipe all e way
oh wat fun it is to hear the one drone bagpipe band, YAYY!
bagpipes sound, bagpipes sound, bagpipe all e way
oh wat fun it is to hear the chao pro bagpipe band!
A day or two ago, I thought Id take a pipe
And soon Mdm Yvonne Tan was seated by my side;
The band had a way to go, miracles seemed its lot;
It got into a state so pro the others went "WOW" YAYY!
bagpipe sounds, bagpipe sounds, bagpipe all e way
oh wat fun it is to hear the one drone bagpipe band, YAYY!
bagpipes sound, bagpipes sound, bagpipe all e way
oh wat fun it is to hear the chao pro bagpipe band!
Now the doors are open, go it while you're young
Take the pipes tonight, and pipe this piping song;
Just get the reeds and bag, three pro drones for our needs
Hitch them to your projecting mounts and there! we'll sound e pipes YAYY
bagpipe sounds, bagpipe sounds, bagpipe all e wayoh wat fun it is to hear the one drone bagpipe band, YAYY!bagpipes sound, bagpipes sound, bagpipe all e wayoh wat fun it is to hear the chao pro bagpipe band!
this song is dedicated to the most sprited, e bestest band i'll ever join. U GUYS ROCK! ((=
