::had a band exchange at Chong Boon today... Had to reach school by 7.30 in the morning... didn't have to bring percussion instruments, so moving out was faster... by 8.15 we're off... the bus ride there wasn't long, quite fast actually... Chong Boon at Ang Mo Kio, haven't been to their school before... quite new, seems that all schools I've been to is either recently founded, or looks new... Chong Boon looks new... maybe they've renovated? was moved to their hall.. wasn't air-conditioned like ours.. only few schools in Singapore have air-con halls... then the other 2 bands arrive.. Whitley and Xinmin... sectionals after that..
Mr Leng asked some of his friends from philharmonic to come.. show us how to play our instrument... lotsa people there.. the clarinets and flutes already fill up their band room.. 60 people there... plus most of the clarinettist and fluatist there are gals.. clarinet and flute considered a gal's instrument in mixed school ma... for us no choice one... boys school.. so got the trio of clarinets with the bass and flute to play our parts for us...assembled back at the hall, the tutors formed a small band and played our pieces.. then took turns to play... basically thats it..
didn't get to know anyone there.. too many people i think.. 3 would be just nice.. not much interaction time anyway.. the most we could do was talk when moving to their band room and on the way back to the hall...
