Wheee.... Lorraine is visiting from shanghai. XD And Xichen, Shanghai food IS oily. I'm here and I'm eating as well... Only the steamed stuff like the dumplings aren't..
Do y'all want anything from Shanghai.. There isn't much but it's kinda cheaper here. If you have any requests I'll buy it for you (depends on the weight and the size). Just sms me... I have a China number but I can't rmb it and I'm too lazy to dig my phone out of my pocket to check.
There's and a drumset in the school here. Was so tempted to go and whack it..
I agree with Xichen's idea/suggestion. We can go ice-skating! But it's at Jurong which is like miles away from town. So of we want to go anywhere else, a lot of time will be spent on travelling..
Is the drum set still broken.. or has somebody repaired it? Those who are still in band, please pursuade Mr. Lim to buy a new one.. cuz those lousy ppl who borrowed it broke it...
Lorraine the Pro,
Shanghai, Fudan









ok. So we can't have the farewell on the 17th. So I checked the calendar and the next most suitable candidate would be 24th / 25th november. Its a Saturday and Sunday respectively.

Actually, I was pndering over Lorraine's suggestion that we have a section outing to go ice-skating, since there's a number of us who like that. So here's my proposal: We sort of combine the two together and make it into a Section Outing cum Sec 4 farewell!!!!

We can go to that-shopping-mall-that-has-the-ice-rink-but-whose-name-I-have-forgotten and skate to our hearts content first, then go pizza-ing @ Pizza Hut or afterwards. It would be an opportunity for section bonding (haha, Joyjoy) and and a meaning farewell to Sec 4s. and Jurong East should be easy to get to(?) Yep so it could be much better than a teary farewell after band prac or something, because happy farewells can be nice too :) :) :)

-Xichen.

PostScript. LORRAINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shanghai food is NOT oily.









Yay, the concert CDs are FINALLY OUT!!! :) I need to apologise to somebody before I go on... Ikan I forgot to help you take one... so SORRY!!!

Hehe. I'm at home with a flu today :)

--Xichen









I'm back here again.

So today they finally announced that 27-29 Nov will be band camp. Thus, our internal farewell could not be carried out during that period. Thus.. It's either slightly earlier or later. Snail, Liang Zhen and Hui Juan have agreed to the proposal of having an internal farewell. Thus, since the sec fours have agreed (except for Pearlynne, cause I haven't seen her), you should agree too. There will be no objections :) Hahah. Okay, so suggest a date!

And.. If you want to have it on a weekend.. Or a weekday. Or a public holiday. I don't know.

Update:
Band resumes on Thursday, 1 Nov, 8am-1pm, report 15 mins early.

-Valentia









This will be the last I am posting in weeks. Considering that I am about to leave in 7 hours time.. Farewell people..

Late November is a fine time. I'm cool with that. XD

I have to go to sleep now. So this is a short post. Must wake up at 4.30 =(


Bye...............


Lorraine the Pro... who is about to depart from this nice country called Singapore.









Hello.. Dark Dude or D2 or Devilin or D has finally posted ._. Ignore that line.

Ahem. Lorraine has asked me to ... organise the "internal" farewell. Yes, we are going to have an "internal" farewell, since ahem, I could not make it for the band one. Ahaha. Yes. Therefore.. We gotta decide on the date. Such demanding task, I can't do it on my own x) Hahahah. Okay here are the possibilities..

1. End of November (17-30 Nov)

Well, why is that so? Cause sec 3s are gone for the first 2 weeks of November, I think. And... Early December... Hmm yeah that's a possibility.

2. Early December (1-13 Dec)

So.. Suggest your date suggestions within those periods x) Yep. Hahaha so nonsense. Through tagging. Uhuh. But I've got the feeling this won't work. Oh well. Just choose a date or somethin'.

Then we have to decide the place too.. Hmm.. No idea for that.

Alright, I have to go now =]

-Valentia who thinks pulli is a funnier word than spoof.









HELLO!! XD

Blahaha. Feeling randomly happy since I complete my cube today. Like faster than ever.. XD Twice too. LOL. Valentia you should have stayed in the car longer, then you could have witnessed the completion of a cube.

Anyways, like y'all should be able to see under the "announcements" section, there is NO band on thursday as O Levels take place in the afternoon and no one is allowed to play outside. Therefore no band.

However, band RESUMES this Friday, therefore your attendence is expected unless you have a valid reason. Or some letter. Please inform either Xinyi or Valentia if you'e not turning up. Or else you will be assumed missing or dead, and for all you know, the police may be roped in. haha XD

I'm leaving on Thursday... =( and you're all given permission and encouraged to miss me. XD.. I'm starting to miss my bed already.. Farewell sweet home, goodbye trusty laptop... ahh... ANW... all the sec3s will be departing one by one.. (sounds like we're dying) by 4 NOV, we'll all be GONE! and then Valentia will be in charge. So y'all will have to listen to her. She told me to you guys not to bully her. XD but of course, a little bit of bullying is harmless, maybe even... beneficial? =D However, if she's like dead and decomposed when I come back, it hurts me terribly to say this but you sec1 dudes will be charged with murder. Regardless of age. Locked in jail for the rest of your lives. (i think you get parole though heheh)

Lorraine the Pro signing off...









喜报 everybody! Yay I got into PSL!!!!!! Can you believe it :) Hehe. Yes I can. Ohohoh yay next year can wear golden name taggie :)

I'm so looking forward to the Japan trip next year. Hey but before we go Lorraine can you please teach me how to play with four mallets? I've been looking forward to that...It looks so cool... .

SHORT POST!!! haha. Nothing to write/announce.

Oh yes. A very boring thing to announce. I passed my EOYs. HAHAHAHA! That was so pathetic.

--Xichen aka barbie!!! Also the simley-face girl becuase she uses too many simleys in her post









Today.... it rained during band.... and the darn room was bleeding occupied... Not by us... but by intruders with unknown intentions.. suspected to be of nanyang origin.. LOL..

FYI Snail, I didn't create that password. It's Valentia's creation.. anyways spastic is used when refering to people with cerebral palsy (all that slow and clumsy actions).. I'm pretty sure that our password doesn't suffer from it... So I really dun know why u always use spastic to describe people/looks/objects/and other random things. Blahaha

Famous Last Words does rock... it took u a looooong time to realise that... Today we had a "section talk" oh man... I'm like terrified of those 2 words... Janabel thinks it's fun.... lol.. It's not so bad compared to last time... so don't harp on it ok.. It's serious but it's not like we're gonna kill y'all.. Cuz we're nice people. XD especially ME! hahahh

It has come upon my great realisation that some people within our section will not be attending the farewell cuz they're overseas. Valentia Angelin "Devilin" Tjitasura has suggested having our own "farewell" earlier. So It should be held somewhere in late november. I'm open to any suggestions of the date(s). The Sec4s must attend otherwise it'll be a strange farewell... hmmm.










Ooo all the rules are now abolished. YAY! But I liked the sound of "Percussion Liberation Front".

Sorry Valentia I don't think I'm able to go to your performance you know... 1st November is ...
a) HALLOWEEN! (or is it Hallowe'en?) I think some people say Hallowe(')en is on 31st October I but I count it as 1 st November. That's because...
b)Its my BIRTHDAY!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Halloween's fool!!!! :)stay @ home to cut birhday cake

As Janabel pointed out to me, I didn't tell you guys I was the "lead actress(as quoted from janabel)" and yesterday you all was gaping @me....

Ooo its much easier to post now when all the rules are abolished! :)

Our class got 3rd in the Captain ball thing! Valesha just pointed it out to me.

--xichen









sorry Lorraine to sink your post. so everyone, please scroll down to see Lorraine's apology.

Anyway, yep. Our skin, as Hui Juan pointedly remarked, is really ugly. Thus, we need er. Background pictures. And skin ideas. Please create your skins and post the designs here. Yep. Like, the whole skin-skin. Not just like, the tables only or the pictures only. Then we'll have a vote =]

Alrighty, happy ... premature hols.

my c and d is on 1st nov!! haha anyone wanna see? =]

-valentia









Oh mans.... I'm so sorry y'all for the sudden change... I only received the message during lunch time.. apparently the room was booked for C & D rehearsal.. i think.. or something.. Anyways.. Cheryl says that she'll keep me posted about tuesday's band prac... cuz she doesn't know if the room is booked... I'll inform you all once I know....

Lorraine the Pro------- (enjoy the movies Valentia dude)









i gave up. i gave in.

the rules are all now abolished.

:( this shall be a three-lined post.

-valentia









Whoo :) Lorraine the Pro agrees with me:)

ANNOUNCEMENT! : Me and Joyjoy has Chinese Speech training full dress rehearsal next tuesday, so we will not be coming till 4 pm or so!

Erm sorry Patricia. Didn't know that you went through so much pain and stress for us to get the box for us. But we should at least try to get a small bag to put in the easy to lose small things.And arrange the auxillary so that it is not so messy at least.

MUST come and see me and Joy's Choral Nite performance :)

--Barbie!









Wheeeeheeeeee...... I'm happy.. It rained just now.. XD I like it when it rains. =P

The genius that Particia was commending is ME!!! ME ME ME ME!!! XD blahaha. I saw you today Patricia. I was walking behind you while u were eating. And might I say that it was very tempting not to poke you or do some other evil thing. (sinister grin)

Lorraine agrees with Xichen that it is getting harder to post as President Valentia's blogging rules and the no-personal-life policy is hard to adhere to. Beware Valentia.... it'll be just like the Sri Lankan civil war...

Cuz you're the evil one-woman government who's forcing the rules upon us innocent bloggers. XD blahaha. Then we'll create some liberation group.... erm.. the.... "Percussion Blog Liberation Front" ahahah =) wheehee =D LOL. and we're all like freedom fighters. I like that term...."freedom fighters".. It's like the nice word for "terrorist".. HAHA..

Therefore, it is undeniable that there are TOO MANY RULES!!! XD I think rule No. 2 can be abolished.... you're can write like Th!S... but chances is that i don't think anybody will read it....

Don't forget there's band tmr.. and me and janabel won't be coming until 4.35 somewhere there. cuz of our global classroom program briefing.

LORRAINE THE PRO









Valentia the Dude is back-- With some stuffs.














Oh jeez the picture looks bad-- without the photoshop border thing o_o Greah. Anyhoos. This is what I came up with. Well I'll still come up with stuff, but for now this is what I've done. Yep. Er you can comment. You can criticise it. I'm very open :) Haha. Well the collage thing can be finalised. This is a.. final draft. not the final product. different thing x)

Okay. Have fun after eoys. see you on the 12th :) Haha.

-valentia

ps. im considering to amend the "strict" blogging rules. so spill on the tagboard what you want to be changed in terms of our blogging conditions :)

alrighty i've decided to amend certain stuff.

1. Use proper English (or Chinese), preferably no Singlish, but since we live in Singapore.. We just can't get away from Singlish.
2. Don't use the caps lock then small alphabet thing. LiKe Th!S. It's annoying and bad for the eyes.
3. Don't spam on the tagboard.
4. Don't promote your own website(s) here.
5. Don't write hate/angsty/"emo" stuff. We're supposed to be a cheery section.
6. Kindly do not blog about personal stuff. Section blog is a... section thing. Public thing. Community thing. you get the idea.
7. Don't publicize the username and password (well I'm assuming all of us are sensible enough not to do that)
8. Don't go out of topic.
9. Three-lined-posts are not allowed, unless it's an announcement.
10. Please don't post twice a day, unless it's really important. There is an "edit post" function.
11. Sign off using your name after posting.

Well didn't change much.. But.. Yeah. I just don't think we should blog about personal lives here, since this is more of a .. section thing, not personal thing. Hmm.. I'll just put a poll okay, and vote. ONLY ONCE. Thank you.









Relink me! http://www.freewebs.com/playmeamoonlightsonata/ Do you guys like the new** skin? I made the picture my self but took the layout from another skin:). Should I change my tagboard colour to mathc the new skin? Look! Look! Exactly 3 lines on my personal stuff!

I suggest next year we do something about the auxillary. Its rather a headache trying to find the triangle stick.

Yes Joy, our rehersal times might clash. Look carefully at your schedule! Our rehersals will clash on Tuesday, October the 16th!Its from 3-5 pm. Do we go for Band or our rehersal?

我用华语来在这个搏客上写字行吗？：） ~~ 好像没有这个规矩。

Argh. Its so difficult to write a "legal" post now with President Valentia imposing strict laws on our postings.

And most importantly of all, good luck to all percussionists for your EOY results on thursday! :)!

--Barbie









Argh Valentia.... Why do we have so many rules..... Anyways... did you know that rules are meant to be broken... blahaha. XD According to Lorraine's 5th Law of the Universe, "Rules are meant to be broken". Too many rules result in sad and deprived bloggers..

And there's nothing that says we're a cheery section so can't write emo-ish stuff. Blahaha. But it's not encouraged.... Unless that emo thing u're about to write is FUNNY!!! XD

Today's a FRIDAY.. only one last exam until the end... blahaha.

Why are long archives bad?? 3 line posts are fine... hahaa. XD lol. Now moving on to the quiz... It's not just The quiz, but it's THE Quiz.... The ONE AND ONLY Quiz.... hahaha

THE QUIZ
Name: Lorraine (the Pro) =D
DOB: 31 Dec '92
Why did you join percussion: Cuz I like it! XD (vague-ness)
Your fave instru: I like both the timp and drumset. XD
Your hated instru: Crash.... (bleeding disgusting..) and gong... (it's like this metal plate u hit that goes 'bwaaaannnnnnggggg' haha lols. no offence directed at it... but just a random statement.
Do you even like percussion?: Yes.. Otherwise I wouldn't have joined... Duh...
Hobbies: erm... Reading... Jamming. and Playing. Xbox and computer. =)
Your most memorable memory with the section: Most memorable??? I dunno.. They're all memorable....
Your suggestion for the section to improve (in any way): Erm...Bond more... (via talking.=D) and practice more (via practising) lol XD
Any other thing(s) you wanna say?: I promise to study harder next year. (hopefully) hahaha.....

Ooo Joyjoy is going to go crazy at the sight of this quiz :)

Name: XICHEN!!! nicknamed Barbie!! :)
DOB: Halloween! 1st November
Why did you join percussion (you can say 'cos there's no other choice): Love percussion!!!! Went to 06' concert. --> Fell in love with percussion!! (was in love before anyway)
Your fave instru: MALLETS!! Pretty obvious. Especially glockenspiel. Know why? KNOW WHY??!!! 1. played glock for pri sch band camp, which got me the awardddd!!! :) 2. played glock for SUF 06'. Know what the judges wrote? They said I played well!!! yesyes in the comments page you know they give out after SYF.
Your hated instru: ? Whoa. I don't really have a most hated instru? unless you coun the gongggg
do you even like percussion?: you must be joking??OF COURSE I LIKE PERCUSSION!!! :)
Hobbies: Ice skating_stamp collecting__PIANO!!! :)_birdies:)_collecting disney princess and barbie stationery (haha)_eating delifrance(!)(janabel is the first to note this)_too many to count.
Your most memorable memory with the section: apassionata XI.
Your suggestion for the section to improve (in any way): Erm. YES! I suggest we improve the living quality of the auxilary. --> buy those kind of special bags to sort and put them in. there are those that are made to put druimsticks too;my pri sch has them. Then we wounldn't need to search all over the place to find a triangle stickkkk
Any other thing(s) you wanna say?: no/look:: `1234567890-=qwertyuiop[]asdfghjkl;'zxcvbnm,./~!@#$%^&*()_+!!!!!!!

still need to say who I am?! -- kk. i'm barbie:)

Okay.. I'm gonna re-post the rules and add in new rules. Our blog has gone slightly haywire.

1. Use proper English (or Chinese), preferably no Singlish, but since we live in Singapore.. We just can't get away from Singlish.
2. Don't use the caps lock then small alphabet thing. LiKe Th!S. It's annoying and bad for the eyes.
3. Don't spam on the tagboard.
4. Don't promote your own website(s) here.
5. Don't write hate/angsty/"emo" stuff. We're supposed to be a cheery section.
6. Don't blog about personal stuff. In every post, you can only write three lines concerning your personal lives. (eg. I have maths exam tomorrow! I'm scared I will die! Everyone pray for me!) and please do not abuse the privilege (ie. using long long sentences. no personal life junk!!!)
7. Don't publicize the username and password (well I'm assuming all of us are sensible enough not to do that)
8. Don't go out of topic. The posts here are supposed to revolve around percussion. Again, personal life junk go to your own journals.
9. Three-lined-posts are not allowed. Short posts may lead to ultra-long archives.
10. Please don't post twice a day, unless it's really important. If you forgot to add in something to your post, there's a function called "edit post", so let's all make use of the functions of blogger. We don't want our archives to be like.. er. Let's see. 100 metres long.
11. Sign off using your name after posting.

Alright. That's all I've got so far. If you feel that you wanna add on to the rules, it's fine. just add your rule. The most broken rule so far is the posting about personal lives. Well, see, now I allow you to talk about personal lives for THREE LINES!! haha cause sometimes i brag/talk about my life too.

Let's play the bonding game. Purpose of this :to know each other better.

Fill in this questionnaire (let me do it too yay); copy and paste to your post!:
Name: valentia
DOB: 17 july
Why did you join percussion (you can say 'cos there's no other choice): er cause i saw christal played drumkit.
Your fave instru: changes with mood. used to be crash ;_; sometimes xylo sometimes timp sometimes drumkit.
Your hated instru: now crash, i dont like to play crash anymore. triangle. guiro. im fine with the rest.
do you even like percussion?: i'd say so, even though i prefer harps. and i'd rather be able to play string instrument like violin and be some virtuoso violinist haha fat chance.
Hobbies: music, books, sleeping, munching stuff, irritate people
Your most memorable memory with the section: none yet =p hehe. nay. hmm. the outing last year at janabel's house. funny. and the bathroom scene before concert hehe.
Your suggestion for the section to improve (in any way): er. do this questionnaire!! hehe. wont help. guaranteed XD
Any other thing(s) you wanna say?: naw. just study hard. =]

see how bored i am :) And yep, happy studying.

Valentia

~!@#$%^&*()`<+-=-_

Good luck for EOYs perucssionists!!!
__Barbie.









Hey y'all!!!!!

I'm having MATH TMR!!!! AHHHHHH.. hahaahah... yes but my purpose of blogging here is not to ponder over my imminent doom but to tell you guys when band pracs resume... XD

BAND RESUMES ON 12 OCT. FRIDAY........... IT WILL CONTINUE AS 3 TIMES A WEEK.... AS USUAL..

I'll make it BIGGER if that didn't get your attention.

BAND RESUMES ON 12 OCT. FRIDAY........... IT WILL CONTINUE AS 3 TIMES A WEEK.... AS USUAL..

Yup.. That's all..... for now. hahaha. XD JIAYOU FOR EOYS

Lorraine the PRO XD









Whack! KK now I can post properly.
1. My banner You guys like my banner? Its not like I pawned my studying....I only spent 5 minutes on it. ZZY ran down to photocopy something and I started doing it and I finished just nicely when she came back. Now that I'm seeing the banner on this blog, a few points to note:

>If you don't like the flames, I can redo. Like I said this is 5 minutes work.
>If you don't like the font, I can change.
>If you don't like the size, I can edit.
>If you don't like the fact the flame's edge is cut off, I can fix.
>If you don't like the flame's colour, I can also renovate to pink, blue, green......
> If you don't like the plainess, I can add stuff, I still have the raw photoshop copy. which you can have by sending me an email request as well, if you think you can try improving it or something. It's not that copyright:0 xichen_shen@yahoo.com.sg

Yep! So comment. The reason why I think this will look good on this blog is that, you know, its really sort of brings out the feel of things. OK so this is not really pro, Joy knows, how to do it, Char knows how to do it, you all probably know too... Haha!! :) I'm too ego! ;) 2. EOYs Good Luck.

-- --edit-- I'm Barbie!!! forgot to tell you guys who I am. :D --xichen




















haha i cant bear the sight of our stagnant blog.

pfft i know i should be studying.

NO INSPIRATION D:

haha if you're reading this before...the end of your EOYs,

THEN YOU BAD SLACKER GO BACK AND MUG ):

haha i know i'm slack too.

okay bye (:
