angklung

After days of desperate looking around the entire school
for a player to help play percussion for the school's angklung,
only to be turned down,
mrs faith ang finally got an agreement this afternoon with a very nice boy ..

me.

HAHAHAH !
nice boy my ass lah

it came all so sudden .

i just ended my oral examinations
and just got to the canteen to sit with the rest .
oh btw, i think i did pretty well for my oral .
:D
i elaborated alot and expressed my personal views nicely and in an organized manner
hoho

and there she came asking me about it,
and not even a minute later,
i found myself walking my way up with her
to the hall to already start practise with the rest .

the angklung played very familiar & catchy tunes.
i kinda liked them.
and the players were rather friendly too .
it was either they smiled at me first or would smile back when i would.
i simply like smiling, HAH wth?

and oh ya, all of them were girls.
only three of the just added helpers, including myself, were made up of guys.

jacqi was there too.
she was playing the gu zheng (chinese orchestra instrument).
the other two male helpers were given shakers to play
and i played the woodblock and also the windchimes.
it was kinda easy for me.
okay what am i talking, it was VERY easy,
esp when i have the same ryhthm throughout !
psh, such an insult to my percussion skills, CEH!
kidding hahaha

jacqi also let me play with her gu zheng
cooool~

and btw, the performance not only consists of us,
it also involves the chinese dancers.
we would play the music and they would dance to it.
cool huh?
they danced rather beautifully to the music, i shall say

the clocked striked 4.35 in the afternoon
and we were almost about to end
i went to play the kulingtang (abit like band's xylophone)
with mr andy tan.
personally,i think he's quite a nice teacher.
he makes me feel as if he's a good friend of mine.
and we played the tune ' doe, a deer. a female deer..'
hahah
and i continued playing along tunes that i learnt from the band.
some of the girls looked back to watch when i played
'a whole new world'
HAH!

soon, the rest were already long gone to keep their angklungs
leaving jacqi, mrs ang, mr tan and i in the hall .
mr tan started playing on the piano,
and oh my.
he's damn good, i dare say .

hafiz : " okay, mr tan.. i know you can play. let's go now.. :B"

mrs ang : " aiyo. hafiz ah.. so cheeky. "

mr tan: " haha, its okay. i know him, and he's one of the nicer band members "

mrs ang : " actually all of them are rather nice"

heh

after leaving the angklungs, gu zheng, temple block and wind chimes
in the music room ...

hafiz : " mrs ang, is this the last rehearsal we have
until the performance day itself this saturday?"

mrs ang : " yes !"

hafiz & jacqi : O.o !?@

mrs ang : " that's why you see me desperately looking around for players!
and especially now that it's nearing the day,
im looking out more for the good players in school.
so thank you for agreeing to help play *smiles widely* "

so yeah.

i'll be performing at vivocity this saturday .
time, im not sure but
the consent form states that the duration we would be involved in this event
would be from 10am-7pm.
rehearsals there first with the other items from other schools(i think)
and then also, ours would be the last item.
ugh
so i guess we would be performing around 5 ??
haha
i dont know.

any supporters?
HAH !
