50th Merdeka Celebration

YEA!!!! MMB won 1st band and best drum major this year in parade. What a great achievement. I believe this achievement can bring glory to our school and something for our principal Mr.Phoon who has been supporting us all these while. Tis could also bring up the spirit of the members back again. I am so happy now to blog this. It's the first time ever MMB got first!!! MUACKS!!! MMB I LOVE YOU!!! I can feel that this achievement is really a good sign for MMB to start growing again and fight like before. Better than before. Term 07/08 will leave a great spot of history for the band. Now and Forever!!!

Another Camp ENDED

Today was the alst day of JTC and Merdeka camp. But let's get back to the first day. Well, we checked in and arrange dorms, take instruments, bla bla bla. Then it was marching time. For the first time ever looking at the juniors march. IT WAS A DISASTER. So we started to teach and polish some. It got better then it came to lunch. Enjoy a little cause there was no fan. Then it came to sectional. Taught drumming basics for bout 2 hours and fell asleep in the pavillion. Haha. Rule Broke. EXCO's somemore. Sorry sorry. After sectional was bath time then dinner. We are suppose to do theory class at first but ended up doing something I forgot what is was. Haha. NVM then lights off

Second day was the same in the morning. Marching then lunch. Afternoon was the best part where my section was on their own and the section leaders were taking rest. 0ops. Bad example and attitude. But to our surprise they actually practiced for the whole 4 hours non-stop cause it can be heard from my dorm. So I jump off the table and went to check them out. SURPRISE SURPRISE!!! They can play drum solo 1 - 4 and even wawasan. WOW!!! Not bad for self practice. Even the bell player can catch up by his own. Evening was a little stamina training andnight was theory class and some games.

Third day was the same also in the morning. Afternoon was sectional and evening was madness!! We had 6 games. The disgusting one was digging for worms! LIVELY ones and tie them with rubber band onto someone's head. Where the person who is standing there to be HAIRSTYLE-D was standing on ICE BLOCKS. l0l. Then there was this alst game where we were suppose to pass an egg without the shell blindfolded hand to hand sitting on mud and ice full of worms. HAHAHA. That's fun. I am scared of worms but somehow I enjoyed it very much. Haha. Cleaning up was the toughest part.

Today the last game where we are suppose to wrap an egg so that it does not break when thrown down from the 2nd floor. Ended up so much mess we had to clean up the whole place before anyone finds out. Haha. The worse thing in this camp is the smell of eggs!!!! URGH!!!

Last Night Of HERCULES

Tonight will be the last night of school drama Hercules. Don't know whether will miss it or not. Haha. Normally when attending its practice always complain saying that it is boring but after drama might feel missing it. Drama is fun when there are songs to play especially now when keng joon is not in drama cause of chicken pox. I get to play throughout the whole drama. Haha. Tonight is the last night I am gonna blast everything out. Enjoy all the songs. Yeah!!!

Navin coming to stay over tonight in my house till wednesday. Cool eh!!! Get to watch and enjoy all the drum videos together. The person I love to hang out with most. Haha. Now you all get the answer to one of my questions in my friend test. I placed it in friendster. Go and try it out le. Haha. Gonna watch all drumming and comedy videos for the next few days. Haha. We share the same interest mostly and same attitude and style. The SMART style.

I see that this blog of mine has an average of 50 views per post. Haha. That's a great success for me. Thanks for all your support in keeping me posting. Haha. The previous post I posted achieved 50 views. Thnx GUYS and GALS!!!

Tired Function

Just back from looking at horses galloping or racing. Haha. Went to Ipoh Turf Club to perform for the big race they had today. My first time entering a turf club and looking at horse racing. I got to learn how people bet on the race and how much they actually win. Explained by the security manager there. Stayed there from 11++ in the morning till bout 5. we had 50 boxes of rice and 50 packets of butter cakes for 30+ members. LOL. This is the best meal supply in functions. Haha. But the worse function to go to. Tired and the field we marched on is so thick. For the horses to gallop but not for us to MARCH~!!!!!!!!!!. Haha.

Physics Test!!

Actually i did not take my physics test last Thursday. Thought I would never sit for it. See see today that teacher asked the monitor to call me. Haha. Good also. Not that hard only those questions. Because of 3 careless questions i lost 6/35 marks which could bring me to A2. Aikz. Got 69 only in the end. Hope this paper counts. I want to score in Maths, Add Maths and Physics. End of this year. Those subjects msut get A1. MUST!!!!!.

This Sunday got band function at a Turf CLub. Some horse racing thingy is on. So have to go and do a parade march. Don't have enough members for that march le. Can only go out 8 instead of 12. Aikz! Sunday function then next wednesday is School Merdeka Celebration. Need to play Tanah Pusaka and Setia. Luckily no need to wear band uniform. OR else cham le. Hot and uncomfortable. Haha.

Dizzynessss

Hey all. Today was the first day of my morning section life in school skipping school because of sickness. My head was so dizzy today until I can see objects with images. Haha. First time. So dizzy. Was on the way to school till I reached fairpark then turned back and went home. Sorry to trouble Joshua for driving me back. I am suppose to sit for physics today. One of my favourite subjects. Aihz!!! Studied for it but can't sit for it. I like subjects that has things to do with calculation. Maths and Physics. Haha

Went to the library justnow to study chemistry for tomorrow. So long didn't go to that library d. Went in like a dunggu asking the receptionist bout the geography of that place. Haha. Then studied. Not enough tables also. Have to share with other people. Haha. Then after that went going back time I exit from the wrong door. LoL. How malu-fying. Haha. Very cold place. I like that place to study. Just a little too cold. Haha.

Just watched Kiwi Leong slapping case. Just surprised that the school was so big yet there are no help for the victim? At least a boy? Don't tell me all the boys there are cowards. Too chicken-ed out to help out a girl being bullied by a girl? Oh man. What kind of a world is this? Girls are getting more wild than boys.

Busy Days

I think I use this title before. Haha. Life has been busy these days. Especially drama practices. The whole month of August I will be fully booked form drama to band camp to merdeka celebrations. 50th year somemore. Haha. 10 days++ to update the blog once. That shows how busy I was. Haha. Sorry guys. No updates for so long. Keep this blog so abandoned.

Finishing the practice plan for my section. so many members yet so little tutors. So hard to do the planning man. Like 1 fella teaching 10 fellas? Oh man. Can teach also cannot learn la. So many people to be taught at a time. Break them into groups but not enough time and tutors. LOL.

Bought a Kuala Lumpur World Marching Band Competition 2007 T-shirt which costs me bout 17 bucks but quite comfortable shirt although the design is a little messy at the behind. Haha. Wanted to buy one more white colour one since the current one I bought is black but too bad no money to buy. Use too much money already. Over budget for this month. Haha.

My blogging skills are very bad. Haha. Pardon me for that. Haha.

Far long AWAY

Wah. It has been long since I last updated this blog. I must be very busy because of drama practice. I have to stay back everyday in school till 3 - 4. Monday, Tusday, Friday drama practice. Wednesday and Thursday IT class. Wah. Everyday also stay back. Need to take lunch in school. SO need more allowence. Hehe.

Just finished planning and writing out my percussion section practice schedule. It's better to write everything down since there are few groups of members depending on quality and experience. New members and old members. Very confuse when thinking bout the practice times so might as well make a time table for it. Easier for everyone.

Becoming the treasurer is not an easy job. It is fun collecting money but it is hard to record down and do a report during General Meetings. Haha. I've never learn any accountings. But one thing good is that I get to learn how to bank in money and deal money with the bank. Something very insteresting and fun to do i see. Haha.

Prefect AGM is next coming monday. The upper sixes and the form 5 will be leaving. It is good for us to learn to be independent but without the form 5, I am jsut worried bout handling the group of "samseng" fellas or some "ganster wannabes". Haha. Fell sick on last saturday so didn't get to go for comm outing. But this friday or saturday might be having a nother outing again. Full prefectorial board outing. Haha. FUNZZZ.

Busy Days

Well.Perak Band Competition 2007 is over. Time to get serious with studies. It has been long since the last day I updated this blog. LOL. Anyway, Did not achieve anything in this year's band competition but still it was a good lesson for all MMB bandsmen that we can't hold on to something we had been holding on since few years ago. This is the circles of life. Sometimes we win and sometimes we lose. Losing is the time where we learn our mistakes and improve ourselves. This has been a great experience after losing for the first time in my 4 years in band. I've got one more year left next year. One last season for me in the drumline. 07/08. AGM is coming soon. New board of commitees is coming up and hoping that this board could do a better job in future. Time flies. It has been four years. I can barely forget what happened because I can remember every moment I had in the band since the first day I joined the band.

There will be two outings next week. One IT class outing on wednesday and another on sunday. The band will be going to Bukit Jalil on sunday to watch the National Competition. Can't wait. It's the first time I am going there and yet with the whole band. This is gonna be SO FUN.

Perak Finals - 48 hours

Nowadays really very busy. Really no time to update my blog.


Yaya. Perak Finals is about 48 hours away. I am getting nervous bout it. Thinking bout it every night. Thinking whether I will be mistake-free or doing mistakes like today in practice. Gosh~! Today's show is like so bad. No improvements. All the mistakes came back again. No difference since prelims. Monday is the competition and SMI is the 7th band to perform. 2nd last band. More time for preparation but will be tired waiting for our turn. Hope the members wil have enough rest during the afternoon. I really don't want them to be too tired when it's our turn to perform.

Members of MMB. We have been going through these 3 weeks together. Crying, Arguement, Laughter, Tiredness, Hours under the sun. It's time to make all these efforts something we want to achieve. It's time to create a history my fellow bandsmen. Do your best. Nothing will stop us. Nothing is out disadvantage and most of all always be confident at yourself.

Prelims Over

CooL. Prelims over. Well today's performance wasn't as bad as predicted actually. I thought my backsticks wouldn't come out smoothly which caused me to be worried for a long time. Anyway, it came our smoothly. Percussion did well today. Better than normal. I would say that's the best they gave out so far but there are more yet to come. To all MMB Bandsmen. Congratz. u guys have shown your best of yourselves today. It might not be perfect but there are always rooms for improvements. 2 weeks of practice wasn't a waste and to be frank it is actually a very good show for a 2 weeks practice. Keep up the good work. We will make ourself through Perak Finals.

Hello 123

Long time didn't update this blog. Band life was very hectic till got no time to rest also sometimes. From band practice to tuition. Then back home sleep. Next day same routine. Everyday almost the same for the past whole 2 weeks of holidays. Holidays are not holidays to me because I still have to go to school. Haha.

Band finished formation but in very bad condition. Attendance was bad. Performance was bad also. How could we ever aim for the gold when we can't even unite as one? Most of the bandsmen are giving up hope on this year's competition. Even is one person gives up hope on this year's competition the other 47 will not be able to achieve because one of the teammates have a different mindset.

School is gonna start very soon; I hope I can have great memories kept with me after this band competition season.

Back From FTC

FTC means Formation Training camp. Haha. Just came back yesterday afternoon. Was very tired yet did not sleep the whole day. Slept at night and today practice again but did not achieve good attendance enough to start a formation practice so practice was changed into a meeting instead. LOL!!. Camp finished up only one formation. Well, it is quite good already to finish a formation in 3 days. About 13 more days to finish the whole drill for the competition. Hmm. Whether we can do it or not it depends on ur ourself. No one can force us what we do not want to do. Hectic practices will be on untill the competition is over and I really hope we could continue our journey throught he national championship.

I am getting darker now. Haha. Skin also peeling off. Pimples coming out more and more. Haha. Anyway I hope it is worth it la. To all MMB readers here. I hope you guys could do something if you really want to achieve for nationals. Please.

Band Camp

Right no updates till the 30th of May. Band camp will be starting tomorrow till the following wednesday. Band camp time is basically to practice the formation for the upcoming competition which is 3 weeks away from now. In fact maybe 2++ only. I am kinda afraid the formation can't be finished in time. Just got the drills today. Looked at it roughly it's quite easy for my section. But playing and marching with it is the problem. So, pray for me. Secret Agent Man. Here I Come!!!!!

Still haven't finish packing my stuffs. Need to get a list later to remind myself what to bring for tomorrow. Will be staying on the second floor of the school block. For the first time. It would be just so inconvenient to bath because the toilet is downstairs and the dorms are upstairs. Hehe. After bathing walk up also sweat already la. Haha.

That's all for now. See you all after my camp. AFter I get a serious sun-bath. LOL~!!!

The Bitterness Of Exam

Haih. Got to know my history marks today and I FAILED. It's not my first time failing history though once when I was in form 2 I guess. I think I got all from A - E or maybe just B - E. This exam brings great experience and lesson to me. I learned that I should study harder now. Form 4 life ain't easy at all. I promise myself and my family that I will aim and try to get A and B for my next exam!!!

Hectic Band Life - UPDATED

Band life is just starting to get hectic especially when we haven't even started to prepare for the competition which is 3 weeks away. Not even a single step of the formation. Well, what to do. SMI exams was so early this year untill we have to postpone everything and be busy. Stupid teachers complaining bout the noise we make. Headmaster wants us to practice but teacher scold us. How lah? One say this One say that. Have to skip classes to finish up learning the songs and the drum solo. How? Camp coming next week from Saturday till Wednesday morning. We will be staying beside the construction site. Dusty place to stay and noisy also. ZzZz.

Why? Why is there nothing which I do can be better than the others? I feel like everything I do just brings no effect to anything. Is there anything I can do where I can feel myself being useful? Every suggestion of mine and actions of mine just will always lose to the plans of others. Why? Am I just the type that should stay and wait for orders?

Exam gone, Band come

Exam is officially over today after the PJK paper which I know nothing bout it. Haha. Who cares anyway bout PJK. It won't be in the SPM syllabus. Well, everything is over now. I can now concentrate in band for a month and some sports. Hehe. What sports? I do sports? Weird =.=

Prelim's on the 13/6 which is on the Tuesday, first week of school after the holidays and the finalss on the 22/6. Not sure bout the finals cause they like to postpone. But prelims. Argh!! A month from now and MMB still haven't started anything. maybe 1/5 of the formation. 2 weeks to learn up 4 formations? That would be a miracle. Don't want to lose this year. I don't wish to lose at all. Will we be skipping classes? Or just wait for miracles to happen like one day suddenly all the members can walk the whole formation? LOL

Speaking bout band competitions. I wonder how I lost my band competition certs for 2004,2005 and 2006. I really don't know how I lose them all. I remember keeping it in my file and now it's all gone. Really sad when I think bout this. My band certs are all gone.. ARGH!!!!

Exam Relieve

Exam can said to be over today but one more Physics Paper 2 next monday. Haha. It's a relieve that everything has ended. I learnt my lesson through this exam. Form 4 life ain't easy. This mid-term exam I am sure to be failing history and my other subjects would be C and D. I am not used to the change of format.This has been a great experience for me.So, I will try my best again in future exams. Anyway, I want to say thanks to KENG JOON and VIN FEI for helping me out with some subjects. Haha. Thanks a lot guys. If they are reading it here. Haha.

Tonight gonna play computer till late at night again. Since there is no band practice tomorrow but only if my grandfather allows. Haha. My mum not around he is the boss. He controls strictly but even if he ask to sleep I will still stay awake. Haha. My mum went to Toronto. Hope she enjoys there as much as I enjoy here. Haha. I enjoy my computer, she enjoy her holiday. Haha.

2 more weeks to band camp. Can't wait to fellowship with the members again. Life in band is left short for me. Time flies till now I am form 4. Can't believe that it's May now. Band comp coming soon also. Haha. Need to be physically and mentally ready for it. Haha. Gambateh MMB.

NEW UPLOADED VIDEO AT THE BOTTOM

NEW

LoL. New TV had arrived. Panasonic LCD 32". FuiYohh. Finally can watch something from upstairs. Much clearer channels. Haha. No need to run down and use astro decoder anymore to watch normal channels. Normally have to run all the way down to press ONE channerl then run back all the way up. L0L. Now just press on the spot. Haha. Only 480i? How to make the quality to 1080i? l0l. Any professional help?

Exams are still going on. Finish ICT, English, EST and a paper of BM. So far so good. Today's English paper 2 is kinda fun. Interesting choice to write a composition on THE FUTURE YEAR 2020. Haha. I banged everything that I could think of in there.

Well, That's it for now. Exam season not much things to do. Haha. Wait for band season. Haha
