Musique française..../ NBC

I was watching Mr Bean's Holiday and interestingly,
I am starting to develop an interest in French music.
Somehow it gives you a pleasant ambiance feeling to it,
its the care-free-ness, relaxed, laidback sound that i love.

Anyways, NBC (National Band Competition) is exactly 21 more days away.
Yup, NBC's on the 13th July, Sunday.
We will be playing 2 songs, Ka ze no mai (Dance of the wind) and United Nations March.
For Ka ze no mai, i am playing the claves, suspendered cymbal and the sleigh bells.
For the United Nations March, i am playing the TIMPANI! (This i find quite exciting...)

Heres the full Ka ze no mai song, i recorded using my mobile phone.
Its all of 5 min 32 sec.
However, the whole trumpet section was missing, hence the 'emptiness'

(Oopsy, i am sorry, the imeem website is currently down by when its fixed i'll upload the song right here.)

How quick the days come and go...
Tomorrow is monday.
Monday = To school.
SIGH.
I am sure i am not the only one who feels this way.
But at the same time, i have a little excitement brewing in me.
The kind that looks forward to calling your classmates those silly names you have for em.

Oh well, i guess all good things have to come to an end, whether we like it or not.
But i have one thing to be thankful for, this holiday was fun.
Oh yes, indeed it was, a good time of relaxing and at the same time, many of my days were
often packed with activities so as to keep me as far from this horrid 'thing' called "BOREDOM".

Alrighty, off to do other stuff now,
Cheerio!

For the French, or the bilingualist.

Aww.... Don't you just feel good when someone says something good about you?
I know i do. Today, after church, i spent my lunching hours with Nat, good ol Nat, just like good ol' times. We ate at pastamania which BURNT a hole in my pocket, i ate a 10 inch pizza.
Hmm which wasnt too bad, but it had alot of oil, sadly, so after that i felt really fat. Yup, oh we also met Jay and Joel and quite alot of church people there. Interesting.... Okay maybe not really but yeah.

Next week, which starts tomorrow, is going to be hectic and sad because i have to go back to school for CCA.
Band: 845am-1pm. (Yes... A STAGGERING 4hrs and 15mins.......)
Oh and it isnt just one day my friend, its 3 days a week.

Anyways, anyways, The Trouve's are also planning a photoshoot sometime this week,
now thats something to look forward to. ;)

Have a pleasant week!
Ciao~
