i shall finally blog about the sec 1's first main band session this tues(:

firstly, setting up. the sec 1s were all very confused about what to carry to the ks chee and what to do with their instrus :/ me and my sbms were wondering if we should place our clarinets on our files or squeeze it onto the mat that our seniors used....

in the end, all the sec 1s took stands/chairs because none of us knew how to move the percussion (or if we're allowed to for that matter .__. i shall ask next week :x)

section warm-ups! the clarinets took the area near the raffles room. zomg i really need to work on stamina T.T

daily warm-ups with the main band was x.x the semiquavers were the worst. couldn't follow xP and i was running out of breath again.

worked on buzz, buzz, buzz and london bridge. buzz buzz buzz was still ok, manageable. london bridge was ALMOST manageable except i played wrong notes now and then and played off beat :X

my shoulders were sore from sitting up straight for 2+h. my butt was sore for sitting 1/3 of the chair. my thumb was sore from putting the weight of my clarinet on it :x

at 6.30pm, main band session ended.

hehe ytd we were supposed to change our instrus for newer ones but i chose to stick with boctopus(:
