oh my oh my. KENNY G. SIMPLY ROCKS! i think i'm falling in love with his music. JAZZ! he plays the soprano sax by the way. wow. he must have really strong arms, because the sop sax is heavy. i tried playing it before, and my arms were already trembling after a few seconds.

and i have, like, FIVE of his cds. come look for me if you want to borrow them okay? you will never regret it. hehh.

i went for my first full band prac today! thank God hafiz was playing with me. i think both of us are really extreme. he plays super loudly because he used to be a clarinettist. on the other hand, i play quite softly. sigh. i need more air. and i was having a bad tummyache just now. must have been the sugar roll i ate this morning.

anyway, we tried out a new piece called 'imagine'. and i was so happy that i was actually able to play it! i mean, i usually suck at sight-reading. haha. hope we're playing it for perth! (:

after that was narnia, then animations medley. tried my best to keep up with the band, but couldn't at times. especially when there are running notes or semi-quavers. nvm, it's okay. i'll just have to practise more! my sight-reading has improved a little but there's still a LONG way to go. it's like my ultimate weak-point. must overcome it man.

esther freaked out during animations cos she had to play a sop sax solo. (replacing andrew cos j2s are not going perth) it was her turn to be stressed out. and i was telling her, "you can do it! if i can do it, you can do it too!" not that i was really able to do it, but hahaha. i also freaked out during a point of time when moses koi kept saying that the saxophones needed to be louder. yes yes, my fault. i've really got to work on my volume. ansley was saying that i could do much better. yes i think so too.

at the end of the day, i realised i have so much more to learn. kinda stressful, but hey! at least i had fun today! ah well, i'm going to hand everything to God. yeah man!

randomness: i'm allergic to seafood! sad case. my throat and lips get itchy when i eat prawns. my lips will redden when i eat crabs. and i've no idea what's gonna happen to me when i eat other seafood.


there she goes
