A very good luck to everyone who wants to read today’s entry. If you find that reading my entries are like reading out of a fiction story book, then go ahead and read until the end. Good day!
I wanted to blog yesterday but I was too tired and I need to sleep or I’d be late for today’s rehearsal. And if I was late, that would mean hell. Judging from yesterday’s morning experience, if things don’t go well on time,
the man wouldn’t be in a good mood. So let me tell you the story of yesterday:
Practically a lot of people were late yesterday and that literally fucked
the man up. We were supposed to report at 9am sharp but things didn’t go as planned. He was so pissed, I’m telling you, because of what-he-said our unprofessionalism. If I was the only person there and he attacked me like that, I would be so deeply wounded inside. But because there were a large group of us, the emotions were shared so it wasn’t so bad. He was a scary man but like what I told Esna before, anything to do with him is for the best. One thing to be so grateful is that he isn’t in charge of the musicians. We musicians got a kinder director. And that makes learning much easier.
We somehow manage to finish the first half of the music yesterday and got it recorded as well. After the rehearsal ended, we knew we had a lot to practice on and I knew for sure, I had to skip my Mandarin course. Seriously, I don’t mind skipping the class now. To be honest, I lost hope in it. I knew I am not going to be selected for the China trip. Don’t ask me why but I feel more willing to go for the rehearsal than to the Mandarin course. I guess music is more of my passion than having to learn something out of a textbook and things that are classroom-related. Anyway, IG practice ended at 6pm and I had to meet Esli after that because I had to pass her my dress. Before that, rushed off to AMK Hub to get something. So I met her at 7pm, passed her my dress and we ended up talking until 11pm.
While I was walking, got a text message from Herman, my band mate from another band asking if I was coming online. For goodness sake, I totally forgot about our band meeting to discuss on some stuff. I had been in school the whole day, tired as hell that all I wanted to do when I got home is to sleep. Did I mention I didn’t get a good sleep the night before? Well, I got too much to mention but I’m not going to say everything. I only had one meal yesterday at lunch. When I got home, there wasn’t anything nice to eat. I know that when people are really hungry, they could eat almost anything but my tongue just refuse to taste the same old thing so I ate one banana before I went to bed.
What happened today:
I was supposed to be in school by 730am just to make sure that we would not be late for the rehearsal and at the same time, we could have breakfast. But I only reached at 8am and they were already practicing so I do not want to miss it so I practice with them. Mind you, I was so tired and sleepy. I didn’t have time to have breakfast but only ate another banana before I leave house. My only concern is if I would faint. Of course not, I am that strong.
Rehearsal was intense today and we really had to focus to finish the second half of the song. Did another recording and I’m sure it’s at least a little bit better than yesterday’s. Today also felt like we shifted house because we had to carry our instruments twice. From the IG room to the Conference room for the musician rehearsal, then to the studio for combined rehearsal.
After rehearsal, had my first meal of the day at lunch. Then we continue with practice until 5pm. We only have two more days of rehearsal before the opening show Monday. Remember people, it’s at noon so do come down to watch the opening show. I’m glad that tomorrow’s rehearsal is at evening. Although I would still have to come earlier, it means that I don’t have to wake up early in the morning and rush.
Hmm… my vacation of only one week but it doesn’t really feel like a vacation because I still had to come back to school. For the past two days, I had stayed in school like any other school day. Well, like I had said in my previous entry, as long as there are no problem statements waiting for me, I’m alright. I like being busy because that would mean time flies faster. However, being busy would also mean that you would be taken away from having the privilege of doing something. For example, I wasn’t able to wake up late and be online or watch television the whole day at home. I can't slack and chill! This also means that I cannot attend Fir’s birthday party this Friday. My biggest apologies to Ryna and Fir. I wanted to be there but because of this tight schedule, I can’t make it. I’ve already told Fir and if I can make it, I will rush down.
Lastly, I mean what I say when I said that I am more willing to attend rehearsals at the moment. In fact, I wish I don’t have to go to class everyday and instead, do more and be a part of events stuffs that have something to do with music. Trust me, I know things could get a toll on me but I won’t complain. Maybe I’d whine but that’s a different story. If I like what I’m doing, I won’t complain. What is busy to me when I know there are other people who are way busier than me?
And I’m positive that I had written down at least 80% of everything I wanted to mention in today’s entry. Why not 100%? It’s because I cannot mention everything and I think there will be some things that are very minor and I just don’t remember to include them in.
Goodnight, everybody. =)
