band.
 
yesterday's rehearsal for student leaders' invest was.. =( 
they don't seem so enthu about it, and the way their hands snapped up during the rehearsal for the leaders' pledge was crap. ok, can't blame them, cos it was their first time doing it. but then again, why don't I feel the enthusiasm factor?!
so the band was playing at the grandstand as well, alot of the cues had to be given by jiamin, and I have to follow her cue on the bass drum. 
the worst thing is that I kept screwing up. =( for like dunno how many times. super frustrating. 
and playing that solo for the march in, which cass showed me earlier repeatedly is boring also. and I couldn't think of any other variations. the worse of it is that when I whacked the bass drum with my leg(ok, for those who don't know what I'm talking about, it's the drum set bass drum), the sound was damn inconsistent and sucky. my leg's too weak already. =(
until christofle came over during a lull for the band and showed me a cooler version of it. =DD need to practise it. or else I'd forget and I'm going to be so screwed. 
after the whole thing ended and we finished packing up, I stayed back to clear the percussion area, cos christofle said it's super messy. which is true. some SL I am. need to get more responsible. so when I finished, it looked fairly decent a section area. at least it's not so messy. 
he showed me and jiamin another kind of solo on the drumset again after that. and he said he'd teach me!! =DDD after common test. =D
and common test is next monday already! need to pass decently..
