Hmm , back another week to blog again . Well , obviously came to tell that my whitley band achieve silver once again . That's very well done and changed alot from the past two weeks i saw their performance . Before it was very worried & pray hard for them and in the end paid off . Think my section did well to handle the pressure . Other section may not be so lucky . Since SYF is over , i really hope all band people continue to stay , play on and help the band and not just leave them . I heard that festspiel is going to postpone to next year and it's kind of sad cause it was held every once a year since it's exception . To decide without a concert is some kind of loss , people might think otherwise but this shouldn't be the case . Nothing much this week as yesterday i played against Bishan United & lost 2-5 . It was simply down to 3 goalkeeper errors , 1 unlucky penalty . Our team were not sharp enough and fail to close down their midfield . First half all were playing their worse . Suddenly in the second half , downing 0-4 , we came back to 2-4 thanks to a nicholas setpiece freekick , an assist from me to kenneth . That was all & down as we conceded the 5th goal and it was to be over . A little physical from me and a few wrong decisions by the referee were just the comments from me . Watched EPL , played games all the way till 3am then sleep till today 11am then use computer , blog , listen to songs . Later heading off at 3pm to book in already . Suffered from sunburn once again . Next week may return on a saturday . Depressed me end off here ...

Yi think i can carry on, without you.

Hey ! Back from another week of training . This week is ok for me except i'm appointed as "Platoon IC" . Oh my god , i not very good also . Alot of problems as they keep reporting sick and this & that . Always have the least amount of time then others . Work like hell and many more till so pressurized & want to explode ! Friday night 9+ reach home then use computer till 11+ rush out meet Anim , Jason & Nazri for movie . Watch "Shooter" as i very tired already half watch half sleep . Show ended @ 3+ then Nazri left for home . The 3 of us went LP McDonald's for supper . Fizah on shift . Chatted till 5.30am then left by cab . Then reach home 6am then use computer awhile then 7.30am go band . Haha , already so tired but no choice since everybody wants me . I make them happy rather then myself cause i wouldn't be happy in anyway also .

Band saw juniors progressing very well . Main band still abit of work to do , especially my section , sound smoother , relax , all bring up your instruments together like 2 bars before you play , legs & trumpet placement standard . Don't blow your trumpet into the stand . Concentrate on the conductor always . Important parts must sound convincing . Polish instruments . Do not be distracted by noises . Mutes please put properly !!! Do not bring the trumpet small stands along . Be confident . Think of me . Hahaha ... Although i will not be there but my heart is still you guys cheering you on . The reason why i came back is because of you all . Trumpet section , listen up , this time round if you all can get gold , i'll treat you like the last time i do . For silver cases , we shall see . Last but not least ,

"Nicholas Tan GOOD LUCK FOR BOTH SOLOs' in seventh night of july" .

It may seem far but it's not over till it's over .

To all band members : Since tuesday no school , you all after band go home keep listening to the Safari & Seventh night of july super many many times . I don't care till 4 or 5am cause i last time used to do it . That's a part of how you can succeed & moved onto the next level . Keep listening , listen not only your parts but how other instruments co-ordinate . The main thing is all must work together . You are not doing this for only yourself but for the band , school , me , alumni whom put in the time with you every week . They can be bad to you but they can't take away your achievements because "YOU"RE THE ONLY 2007 WHITLEY CONCERT BAND ! "

Ok , so to continue on is yesterday the alumni group went to celebrate Mo See's birthday @ AMK Fish & co. Had dinner there then the whole restaurant sang a birthday song for her then had a couple of pictures before we went to Jonathan house for mahjong . Left his place @ 1am then back home use computer till 3am then sleep till 9+ woke up left for soccer , It's a complete waste of time & $ cause we were playing an indian team and they played like 1st timers . Enough nonsense as we whacked them 12-1 . Our keeper played as defender . Can you imagine the keeper is out then the posts got nobody ? I didn't score but still disappointed that we can't keep a clean sheet . At the last minute they caught the keeper and score . What a joke man ! Had lunch @ beach road & bought my platoon stuffs which costs $216.60 . Oh my god , my bank $0.00 . Haha . Now blog later will be going back to camp at night . Very tired .

Monday was a day where i was so sick in the morning . Haha , cause sunday have to book in early so have dinner early @ 4pm then at night so hungry . No nightsnack here . Then when i fall in nearly fainted breaking with cold sweat . The rest of the week is fine , kind of relax schedule . Head once again shaved . Long weekend due to good friday . Thursday night book out super late reach home 11+ . Friday slacked at home as i don't feel like going out . Lazy & tired ! Saturday was the killer . Friday midnight watched 1 and a half EPL games from 12-3.15 . Slept till 6.15am woke up washed up brush my teeth before rushing down to school for band . Went the exchange with the band . Heard afew good bands and afew familiar songs particularly Overture Jubiloso . The trumpets sound not enough . Why i know cause it's our 2003 SYF choice piece which i played a part to achieve a silver . Haha . Other then that my section 7th night must work harder . Sounds are rough at times and if you want to sound outstanding then don't be afraid to play loud , confident & smooth plus working as a section . No restless movements on SYF day then can do it already . I really hope all the best for you all guys . 1 more thing is my former trumpet is taken . Well , i hope it'll be in good hands . Ok , after the exchange went slack 30minutes at Braddell McDonald's before going Bishan S-11 to eat with guixiang , walter & 1 cute junior . Talked alot too before going back in rainy conditions around 3+ . Went down for game at 4.30 which we played like kampung then abit problems for the ground matters . Although conditions were bad but i played well , collected my jersey before rushing home @ 6 . Bathe then rushed out for class gathering with Vanessa , Limin , Jong Jong , Chia Wei , Yew Siang & Boon Sim . Ate at Takashimaya's breeks then go centerpoint for Haagen Dazs . Went Parklane for Pool & Arcade . Chia Wei's Bishi Bashi is "SUPER GODLIKE" . All games she won !!! Then only Limin , Yew Siang , Boon Sim & me stayed overnight tonning . Walked around like nobody's business , saw a few drunkards , dined at LP McDonald's which my cute girl Rosnani working closing . So lucky .
