Back From Camp~~

I need to be special from everyone as everyone are having the same title for this blog - Camp... So, i am the special one... My title are different from yours... Haha=)

Oh yea... Finally, I'm back from camp... I should feel tired and exhausted because of keep practising... But I'm wrong!!! I felt tired and exhausted is because of the new members... Many of the group leader maybe will agree my word...

First Day
Reach school at 8 o'clock... A Thailand instructor is coming today to conduct us... I'm looking forward to see who is him and how he looks like... He arrives my school at about 9 o'clock... His name is SUKIT... Quite a nice person... When he arrives, we had already done the warm-up session... But he want to see how we have our warm-up as just now when we were doing he was not here... So we just do it again...

Then, he start teaching... Actually, what he teach us were the same that what we've done... Just only Are you doing it seriously... Hui Li said that if you want to concentrate during practice, just use English to talk... I'll sure at that time everyone will be very concentrate doing such warm-up exercises...

Then, we start to take our instrument and he still teaching some of the warm-up stuff... After finish teaching these things, he want to have "The Seventh Night Of July"... Kinda frightened he want us to play this song but not "Phantom Of The Opera"... Never mind... It's just the same things...

He took many times to repair this song before having lunch... After lunch, i was not inside the band playing the song but outside the band to teach the new members some of the basic stuff... Quite a long time being outside teaching them... What a sad... I want to go into the band to learn something new, to play the song... Feeling not very good being outside and listen to what they were playing but i cannot play...

During that time teaching my section's new members, i argued with one of my new member... Haiz... I don't what can i say... He wants us to give him LOVE EDUCATION ... I scolded him because of not concentrate in practising but looking here and there... Then we started to argue... He cried!!! He want to call his family to fetch him home... But i asked him to keep his hand phone back to his pocket as we cannot use hand phone during practise... Then he said that we were very fierce... But i don't think so... Why we were fierce?? Because you have done something wrong... And i think that is not fierce, it is strict... We argued quite a time... Then he went to find his family as his family really came to the school... Anything...

After dinner, i am still teaching the new members while everyone was in sectional and practicing "Seventh"... When i can practice like them?? Kinda boring teaching the new members these basic stuff and doing nothing... A day went... Overnight at the hostel... The third floor of the hostel keep lack of electricity... So the first night, some of us change our room to the second floor... What a long time clarinetist didn't sleep together... Jee Yean keeps laughing for nothing and makes us can't sleep... But finally we sleep also...

Second Day
I can't sleep well yesterday as i heard the Muslims pray... So, i didn't sleep from 5 o'clock till 6 o'clock in the morning... Wake up at 6 o'clock on time... Have treasure hunt that prepared by 康乐组... Feel tired after having this activity... I HATE the answer that given by them for the question - Which is the biggest flower in our school?? The answer is - 国字楼那边的圆形舞台... Get sweated...== Then we went to have our breakfast... Having bread with peanut butter and a packet of 3 in 1 Milo... Thank you 总务组... They prepared for us...

Then we have our sectional practice again... I still keep teaching the new members while other clarinetist were practising for the ensemble... Sukit arrived on time... But we still didn't get the location for practise as the door haven't open... So he just walking here and there, looking to how we practice... He come and repair Clarinet ensemble... Haha... Makes me go through there and ignore my new members...

Then, after the door had opened, they all went up to start having practice... I still been left down here to teach the half new member how to count the beat... Really angry teaching them as i have taught him the same thing from yesterday till today but he still don't know how to count the beat... I have no ways to teach him...

Finally, thanks Hsing for bringing me a good news - Senior have to go up to join the practice... Wahaha... Feel so happy to hear this news as i am freedom from the new members... Went up... Seems like everybody was waiting for those senior which were been left outside... Start practice... What a nice moment...

Non-stop practicing until about 5 o'clock... Then he want to hear our ensemble... So, we went out section by section... Haha... I am not going to perform this time ensemble... I think he love "The Entertainer" right??? He was quite looking forward to Clarinet ensemble... Better than last time but not that good that what i think after Sukit repair it...

Ensemble end... Our instructor came and scolded us again... Haiz... Then, having chit-chat with Sukit... He is going to left today and don't when he will come again... Tuba were asking question while we were having chatting among ourselves... Then we have photograph session with Sukit...
Having fun... Just only have question asking and chit-chat at this time... No other activity... Free-dom... Oh yes, i have get the photo... ^^

After dinner, i finally can practice "Seventh" with my group members... Although i didn't play the instrument, but at least don't let me teach the new members because teaching them is a difficult work for me... Then we went back up again to watch the performance by new members and half new members... Erm... I'm speechless for that as i don't what can i say... Time to sleep...

This night, we sleep at the floor as the weather is very very hot and i can't stand it... So Yee and me sleep under the fan...

Third Day
While i wake up, my body was just felt painful... Yea... Because of sleeping on the floor... Having massage with members... Nice... Mei Ling keep laughing for nothing again... Then have our breakfast... A special breakfast from the canteen... I never have this type of breakfast before...

Then, continue our practice again... The new members and half new members performance are just... Aiks... But this is the first time for them... So, just nothing... Haha=) Instructor came again... Saying us this and that... His habit to us... Our habit too...

About 11 o'clock, i have to go... I need to follow my family to go to Ipoh as if i didn't, i will have no transport to go back home... They go to Ipoh to do something important... I on the hand phone as i afraid that my father or mother will call me when they arrived... What i say, they called me when they arrived... Then i quickly ran down from the place that we were having practice and rush to the canteen to take my luggage...

My luggage has taken by my mother... So i quickly ran towards my father car... Once i stepped into the car, my father scolded me because i didn't answer his call... He was quite angry... Then my mother argued with him because of this... Both of them are angry... My father angry because i didn't answer the phone but my mother angry is because she argued with him... Sigh... My father still asked me that why can't i answer the phone during practice... I didn't answer him... I just keep crying... I don't want to answer him too!!! He won't understand although i already give him the answer... Just having some difficulty to communicate with him... He don't understand anything although i explain to him... He still will say this and that...

Some like feeling regret that i told them i can follow them to Ipoh... If i refuse to follow them, maybe i won't get scolded because of this incident... Haiz... Then we went to Kampar to have our lunch first... Have curry chicken with bread there... I can't have spicy... So i just have some vegetables and some bread... It's special... Have a try when you have a visit to there...

Then, we went to Ipoh after finish our lunch... Going around all the shopping centre as my father and mother were finding a shop for them to have business there... After get scolded by my father, i nearly didn't talk for about hours because of no mood... Feeling sad... After walked around some of the shopping centre, we went to my grandmother's house... Kinda hot there...

Nothing to do there... Watching at the boring TV programme... My father have a bath there... Then we invite my aunt to have dinner with us... Ate lots of foods that day... Before dinner, we have ate some tidbits and have some coffee at one of the restaurant there... But i still ate much for dinner... My aunt, uncle and their son came... Delicious food for dinner...

After having dinner, we still need to walk to one of the shopping centre again... Then we went back home... I just do nothing but keep sleeping in the car... Reach home at about 11 o'clock... Bath myself without washing my hair and went to sleep... Really tired...

Conclusion: Maybe... I am not a good section leader as i can't give my group member LOVE EDUCATION or...??? Really tired and boring teaching them the same thing - basic stuff... They didn't even improve much after these three days... Or maybe they have some improvement but i can't see... But their attitude are just... Speechless...

Words to my father
What is the problem that i didn't answer your call??? Is that so important to do this thing... I don't know how to explain to you why we can't answer phone call during practice as you won't understand no matter how many times i explain... You still will say this and that... So, that's why i don't want to explain to you... I already rushed down very fast once i get your call... But i still get scolded... I don't know why i will get scolded by you... Ya... Maybe in your thinking, that's my fault that i didn't answer your call and i should get scolded by you... Sigh...

P/S: Oh... What a long blog... == Photo with Sukit will be upload at the next blog...
