Hisashiburi desu ne….
So yes. It has been a veeeeeeeery long time. I apologise to the select few who regularly read my blog. A lot has happened, in fact.
I’ll go back to the last post, shall I?
So after I posted those videos on Youtube…
Combined Grammar Schools’ Spring Concert
Friday/Saturday, 23-24 August. CGGS Hall.
So there’s this giant show… (Well it’s not that big, only an hour or so.) But all of the CGS/CGGS musical ensembles got together and put on another… wait for it…
MUSIC FROM THE MOVIES~~~~
of course there were things like Harry Potter and Pirates of the Caribbean… but my good friend Spiderman made an entrance and improvved on the saxophone like it was nothing
But the best performance by far was Duel of the Fates from Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. I sang in it, of course, and the lyrics go something like… “Korah mata korah ratama, korah syadho dannyah korah, nyohah keelah korah ratama, syadho keelah dannyah ratama” etc. Great piece, so fun to sing.
So that was a good day.
Evening of Fine Music
Saturday, 30 August. CGS Dining Hall.
Well, firstly I have to say it was a fine night of music. So much good music, and fine dining etc. etc.
I guess it was really CGS at its finest. The EOFM is the pinnacle of school functions… and it didn’t even get a mention in school assembly. Oh well. Hard times everyone else.
Binding Day
Wednesday, 3 September. CGS Music Room.
Of course I had plenty of classes but I managed to get out of them in order to finish HSC core composition – it’s actually not a bad piece from popular review. But yeah, that day was amazingly hectic, working from 8:45 straight through until 3:25, AND of course recording someone else’s piece at LUNCHTIME that day… O_o;
But yeah, got the piece finished in the end, photocopied and all of that stuff, and it went into a box to be sent off to the 33333bil BOS.
Plasmapheresis donation
Wednesday, 3 September. Red Cross House, Canberra Hospital.
Okay, so can someone say major screw-up? I poured a 2L bottle of water straight down my throat for these people, went through the whole interview process and sat down in the chair…
And then the needle went in wrong.
As a result I now have a quite-large bruise around the inside of my elbow… The blood being returned from the PA machine got pumped outside the vein in what we call a “blow-out” so I’m back there next Wednesday for round 2.
ADF Liason Officer Introduction
Thursday, 4 September. CGS Gallery.
Another gig for Hartley and the Hotseats. Still haven’t been paid though. :3
The Grand Question
Sunday, 7 September. Facebook.
In retrospect, it probably wasn’t the best idea to ask someone to my formal on facebook but at least it worked, hahah. Thank God I had my closest friend helping me to smooth out my insecurities and stuff. But yep. No names here, anyway.
And of course, no possession here anyway. She’s not “my” date or whatever. I don’t think of it that way, as you know, equal opportunity and stuff. Don’t ask me what I do call it though… I don’t have a clue.
And so that brings me to today.
CGS Choral Concert
Monday, 8 September. CGGS Hall.
… can’t speak, Rachmaninoff was too amazing.
…
keep wandering.
