::first off..

What does it take to get people to tag around here??

I know ppl do read my blog going by the counter.. and yes, this blog may be very factual based, but its not some newspaper you go read and chuck it aside... or maybe I should do a sensationalised post here and shock ppl..

did something foolish on Thurs.. Mr Tan been coming everyday since the sec sch SYF's done.. haven't been playing up to his expectations, my sole reed's dying on me already and its definately not gonna last till SYF.. well it'll last if I take good care not to chip it or anything, but the sound produced ain't gonna be nice.. was abit fustrated with myself.. and the disparity between my music and photography widens.. the issue of talent vs hardwork..
went down to Accent after sch on Thursday.. blew the remaining of my hong bao money from my birthday on a mouthpiece, a ligature and a box of reeds..


bought the B44 mouthpiece and a box of 3.5 reeds.. of cos I could have just billed it to the college, but the Alto clar doesn't even belong to the sch in the first place and knowing how budget-minded the sch is, just don't wanna trouble them.. so there goes a stack of notes I've never see again.. yes, I know I may have just wasted a whole bunch of $$, seeing I probably won't be using it after SYF.. and buying 3 boxes of Eb clarinet reeds when we need more Bb reeds is good allocation of money..
got back to sch on 157/105.. tried out the new mouthpiece, soaked the new reeds in the the film canister which my class gave me as a birthday card along with a pouch.. the most unique "birthday card" I've ever recieved.. they wrote on a strip of film which you had to unfurl to read.. the mouthpiece sounds brighter than the one that came with the instrument, and new reeds are such a relief, need to season it more though..
Mr Tan came with lotsa new reeds for the woodwinds.. got another 2 boxes of 56 reeds and V12 reeds.. though I would have prefered him not to get all the same strength, 3.5 may be slightly too hard for some of the J1s.. got Tenor Sax reeds which Christopher has been asking for some time.. and as I expected he didn't get my reeds.. it doesn't matter anyway..


just leave me to walk this path alone.. emotions capped inside with no one to turn to.. screaming my lungs out, crying it out.. the inner strength subsides and the flame diminishes, everyday a challenge.. in this time of need, looking out for that guiding light, can't you see I need you? heck, just leave me to walk this path alone..
