I had my band camp from 05 to 07 December at school OF COURSE! We had a barbecue on our first night. Wow! my favourite! We had packs of crabstick, sausage, otak and at least 40 chicken wings for the 4 groups. That alot! We also had fried rice, spicy and non-spicy noodle. Even more. We barbecued the sausage and the crabstick first, they were all either overcooked or uncooked. Almost had a stomachache! We finished the packs of crabstick and sausage and we almost full. Not at all starving! We started cooking the the otak and chicken wings. we finished the otak and some chicken wings. Yummy!We still had over 30 chicken wings. Oh! Too many. We wanted to play some games to finish the food but we did not had the time. So Sad! We gave some of the food to the ex-band members coz they came to see us. Doing charity.

We had a concert on the second day from 7.30p.m to 9.30p.m. We were starting to get very nervous when the parents, ex-senior and friends arrived. We lined up outside the hall, we waiting for the guests to be seated before walking in. We shaking each other hands, wishing each other. We walked into the hall and seated in our seats. The host started talking rubbish. After we finished playing the pieces (Finally! I want to get out of this hall asap!) , someone from someone out there shouted encore. Anyway, the hall was darm stuffy almost died.Our conductor told them we did not prepare for any encore piece but we played the first piece again. OMG!Nevermind i will get out of this place soon. It was tiring (not tiring but very tiring!) to play 8 pieces. After all the guest had left, we took photos. (Memories! Memories!) Our conductor said it was a successful concert. (happy!)

On the third day, we were supposed to have a marching recording without playing and one with playing but it was raining so we did not take the marching recording with playing. (Great!) We had the other recording in the hall. So Sad! When the drum major shouted band fall in, everyone rushed into the hall. (Stupid marching I hate it!) We started marching(Lame!), for clarinets we had to hold our instruments 90 degrees with our left little finger. Darm painful but too bad! After the marching, one of the teachers showed us the pictures took on the musical exchange. It really had a fun time during the camp and there a lot more fun stuff happened in during the camp. I wished we had another camp before the sec 3s leave us.

About to stop, i am like writing an essay!

I had a musical exchange with 5 schools, they are Dazhong primary, Mayflower secondary, Henderson secondary, Northland secondary, Geylang Methodist seconday at my School. Every school played different song, our school played 3 songs. Most of us felt that Mayflower played the best. After every school had played their songs, Geylang Methodist left us. We had our lunch with our section. After lunch, we played games. We were supposed to play a game called Red Alert, but many schools did not cooperate so we changed the game immediately. We played the new game called Stacking Up Our Feets. We were separated into our section, luckily clarinet section were all girls. At about 4p.m the schools were leaving us. We were in the hall when they left us. Dazhong Primary was the first to leave us follwed by Henderson secondary. I had lots of fun!!

I recording of the school song, together with the rest of the band members. Being a bit lame! After we packed our instruments, files and stands, we set off to the recording studio at about 9a.m. There were two buses and a lorry. Some of the large instruments and 35 chairs were placed in the lorry Unfortunately, my instrument was small, I need to carry them wherever I go. Darm sad but did not cry. It was a long journey. We reached about the studio 10.05a.m. We put all the instruments in the studio. Some of the boys helped to carry the instruments from the lorry and luckily the girls were not allow to do so but we helped to set up the stands. We waited until lunch time at the nearby coffee shop. We sat on the floor and ate our lunch. We started our recording at about 1.30p.m. We recorded 3 times and had a short break. We recorded for a total of 8 times because the conductor and teachers were not satisfied. We packed up our things and head back to school. All in all, it was a tiring experience.
