hellos! hahas i'm back to rant. Guitar camp sucked like nuts wasnt that bad i guess. just wished that some people weren't posers and extras and irrtant bugs. wanna know more? well lets see what we did... hahas my fingers were itching so badly to post early cos' i'm VERY VERY VERY TIRED.
day one:
left house at 12.20 and waited for like 10 minutes for the damn bus. arrrgh sucked. then when i reached school (ISR) i was like on time. phewed. then they settle the admin and whatnots and Guitar Camp 2008 officially has begun. **Lets out a big sigh**
So they split us up into 7 groups. I was in group 3. Leader was Jonathan and my other group mates were err... benjamin, stephan and caleb. Each group had to take care of an egg and that egg must be kept wherever you go with you even if you are showering. and if that egg is lost or damaged your group would be punished. and at the end of the camp the group that has the egg kept in the best condition will get a prize. so we decorated the egg and yea. gave it to the leader. HAHA. But who knew when we were practicing he chugged the egg at me after stephan was i/c-.- so i became the egg's daddy. and i needed to store the egg in some place no one would possibly find it or think about where to find it. and i did. Hahas i hid it under the oh-so wonderfully well mantained (with sarcasm of course) organ key covers in the ISR. I don't understand why the stupid thang organ is there for. Its already spoilt and by leaving it there, it serves no purpose at all but just takes up space. I mean like its so horribly broken till the extent i can only lift the forward flaps of the keyboard cover. I can't even open the thing fully mans. I got pissed off and just forced the egg into it. It fit! But Ms Pan was like leaning on it and i was like oh no! be careful! lol thank god the egg was intact as well. So we had 3 consecutive hours of break-less practice. (they broke their promise for a 15-min break at 3.45, which i was looking forward for.)
SO, we played a new song called Ai No Kurashi. Its a Jap funeral slow, instrumental song which sounds nothing different from the funeral songs you hear at void decks when there is a funeral going on. The song is just so depressing and draggy till the extent it took me quite awhile to familiarise the tune of the whole piece, and when the instructor showed us the full song, i was like really convinced to not be surprised if this was a funeral song right in the beginning.
So after that awfully grossed 3 hours of practice, we had water bombs! Yayye. hahas i was surprised that my group mates didn't know how to tie the water bombs. I initially thought that they would be able to tie a more professional way than to be like me who ties my waterbombs like those chicken rice sellers who tie their chilly sauce for takeaway. how uncool that was. But hey! that method is very good okays, especially if you tie it super tight so that there will be extra pressure applied by the strings when it lands on someone and thus makes the bursting and bombing effect much stronger:D so we bombed, sprayed and pailed water at practically one another and i was like the dryest among all the rest who just came out from a shower. Hahas cos I meant no harm. so i wasn't shot or bombed:) hahas. then xxx went to throw a pail of water at me. make my upper body wet. Hahas finally for what i have been waiting for mans. Lol.
So after Waterbomb was shower time. For the first time in history i did not bathe in a camp. Hahas i just washed up and dried myself. I did not stank. So i was considerate too. One person less to hold up the queue. Hahas. And then dinner-ed. Lol had rice. Then we went to the refridgerator AVA room to watch "DrumLine". Its about this dude who has the talent to be a snare-drummist but his weakness is that he has attitude problem and that he can't read score notes. So yeaaaa that's all I wanna say lest I take forever to complete reviewing this movie. Besides, i won't say the movie was that fantastic till the extent i would review. All i can say its that "Watch one time enough orredy". Hahas x) and that AVA room was freeeeeeezzzinnnngggg like some arctic pole that i thought we were of no difference as compared to penguins or polar bears-.-
Then it was lights out. By then it was alr 12 midnight. Slept. Goodnight.
day two
there was this funny screeching click clock click clock noise in the classroom which put me up the whole night... and i was woken up at like 6.30 am today cos there were 3 donald ducks that woke me up with their awfully sounding christmassy vocals. I was like oh please can you guys just off that stupid phone cum music? Its getting so irritating like suddenly you hear Fa La La La La in an awfully screeched, low and off-tuned voice. So i lazed around more and officially woke up at 6:45. Hahas. Brushed those teeth of mine and breakfast was served. It was bread with either peanat butter of nutella. One slice of nutella bread for me please, thank you very much.
Then it was 2 hours of practice. That funeral song agian. But this time at least i could play part B. A great accomplishment for today. hahas. then it was Basketball PK match. Grrr my team was practically up the lorry. (Up the lorry means something which is really bad. Its created as it was derived from the scene of funerals, whereby the coffin is being pushed up the lorry and being sent to the crematorium for cremation). Had AAA, BBB, CCC, DDD, EEE and me. i was like omg? I was just in front of AAA but he chose not to pass the ball to me. Instead, he did a very genious thingum. He threewww the ball over to god-knows-where, where no one was stationed at all, and here i am standing like a toot right smack in front of your two very only big eyes. I was so huh-ed? Did not understand him at all mans. Why throw over to the other end where there was no one instead of passing it to your team mate who is within less that 100mm in diameter around you? Geez mans, I am still kinda puzzled. So yea lah, look at the wonderful team spirit we had and we produced really good results. 20-Nil. The Nil belonging to us of course.
Then it was shower and lunch. After Lunch was 2 hours of practice... Actually was only one hour of practice for the funeral concert this friday... then the seniors showed us thier songs and all. Was nice! at least we stepped out of a funeral-ensemble and back to guitar ensemble of st gabriels secondary school.
Then it was the Handover ceremony. We are now gonna be led by a new batch of committee members and they are:
President: Ryan Lim
Vice President: Sanjay
Secretary: **can't

Music Leader: Nicholas Ng
Sectional Leader:

Welfare Head: Samuel Pang
haha yea hope all goes well for them. I wish them the best of luck for the next 12 months. hahas cos they'll be stepping down next June and my batch will take over. Woooo i can't wait for that mans! hahas
yea and broke camp finally. WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO i am free. hahas.
yep, Church camp is 2 more days! haha i cant wait i cant wait i cant wait mans! haha i'm gonna go super high nehs! but before that, i needa catch up on some serious sleeping. My eyes are hanged with weights. 50 Kg weights forcing my eyelids down real heavily. hahas. nightes then:D
