Weiqi aftermath

It's mon 2dae and im already starting to miss weiqi. Yes. The thinking, the moves, the tension. Weiqi is just so interesting and complicated. Still, im not sure whether im suppossed to be happy or sad about yesterdae. On one hand, it seems as if I have achieved a lot esp. achieveing the milestone 6 for the first time ever and getting in top 3 for the first time ever, beating even SH. On the other hand, it seems that RI has just lost one of his very limited and valuable chances of overtaking HCI for the first place. We had so many chances to do that. If I had killed Xun Kang's patch and won Xun Kang, if SH had just 3 more seeds to win Xun Kang, if HB had just one more mu and won Yi Feng. If we had any of these 3 victories, RI would have got first for the first time in maybe 6-7 years? Not quite sure when was the last time we got first, but i noe it's a long long time ago. There4, it was really a chance missed. Esp HB's last game against Yi Feng. 1 seed made the difference between the victory and the 1st place in team placing. That seed mattered a lot. In the end, we had to settle for second again. Like AGAIN?? Everytime we go for competition, it's HCI 1st and RI 2nd with dunman coming in a close 3rd. There was once when dunman did manage to overtake us to take 2nd place, but that was quite unlucky and unusual. Normally, it would be HCI 1st and RI 2nd with RI almost coming in first, losing out onli by 1 or 2 points. WHY?? Why cant we just overtake HCI for once?? Well, that missed chance yesterday will be sorely missed as it will be hard to replace SH when he goes up to J1.

Today's prac was NOT normal. Reason: Darren didn't come. The place was much quieter and peaceful without him. The lessons were also much more effective in my opinion. And for the first time since the start of the millenium (usage of hyperbole), I didnt hear "it". hahaha. Think all the CO ppl who reads this will understand but no use asking me what's the "it" cuz i wont tell u. hahaha... well, though BL came, he also didnt do anything much except be his arrogant self and show off to everyone his percussion skills. Yup... That was all. We also just got our dong hai scores and i realise that percussion was suppossed to slack in that piece. haha... my part is like SOOO easy that i can sight-read. haha. 2dae we did huan xin and nan er. Nan er is dumb. Me and yin kwan are getting SO BORED with that song that we can die but we still have to prac it together with the sec 1s. Sigh. WHY cant the sec 1s just get the rhythm. It's like they have already been prac-ing this song for 3-4 weeks and it's suppossed to be a primary school piece according to mr. ngoh. sighsighsigh. well, huan xin sounded much better. Reason: sec 1s not performing in it. AHAHA... Guan Yu's still taking xylo which is quite hard. I think that thomas should be taking it but mr. ngoh said that GY could do it and there was no use changing roles. haha. I dont care lah. As long as i can play my bongo drums, im happy. haha... my part is like so easy. The hardest variation is semi-semi-semi-semi-crot / half-rest-quaver-crot + REPEAT LOTS OF TIMES.... Yup... the others are all crap. eg. dotcrot-quaver / crot-crot + REPEAT LOTS OF TIMES.... Yes... SO boring. hahaha... well, i must be satisfied lah. YK's even more boring. He's playing tambourine and im bet he's either feeling very sian or slack. one of them. hahaha... okok. nvm. Well, so actually prac 2dae was not really effective for me as we were just prac-ing things that i already noe. sigh. Why cant we like prac something more meaningful like long teng? oh... and lionel juz informed me that if thomas does not come out with a solo for the 30/8 concert, i would have to come up with one. Im sure man. That's like in less than 10 days time. haha... sighs... nvm. we will see how it goes. Till den... BYE
