just a few more hours to practice. and i'm sweating in my room, drinking Seasons ice peach tea, the windows are closed, the air con is not working and i'm at the computer. yay.

i'm kind of worried about tomorrow. POC (Passion of Christ aka La Passio de Crist) it must be 95% completed by tomorrow and i can't play that running notes part which sounds like Canon in D if played slowly. but i must work hard to at least clear Movement 1 by next two times i get to play the instrument and move on to Movement 2 which has that triplets part that with alot of accidentals. then my solo..which i work on everytime i get a chance to play. need work on the high E,F and F#. pitching is hard because the songs i'm accustomed to in MSSMB won't need anything higher than B or C#. highest i have ever encountered is D (i think). and i realized i need to make it 'O'-ish (cant really explain it, usually conductors say 'Say "O" and play' or somethin like that) to play high notes but that method is usually for low notes.

end of november, finally gonna get a taste of an overseas band trip. it's at Bintan for camp, adventure camp apparently. the resort seems nice (check it out at www.loola.net) the accomodations very nice, exotic .. everything a resort needs. SGD200 for camp and i think we wont need money but i'll probably bring in 100SGD (or 584,243.51IDR) for some stuff, dont know what exactly but we'll see.

4 houses and various people at my place amounting to about $120+/- (miscellaneous uses for transport,food etc. during pracs .. hari raya money btw) and for some reason my dad is giving my room a facelift.
new bed, new study table & new air conditioner. the air con, i'm not surprised he's replacing it because its spoilt. it drips water everytime i switch it on, and i have to put buckets under the dripping water. worse of all, my ub3r 1n73r10r d351gn1ng 1n571nc75 made me shift my computer table, with all the technology (computer, printer etc.) under the dripping air con. i have to hope that it wont drip that much because what's under it (the com & the power switches) may cause some fiery mishaps.

since i made a blog to rant and most importantly, for memory's sake.. steps to be taken to clear my room.
(may be some guai lan crap but you chose to continue reading on, so dont flame me or anything. the internet may be a free place but you have the power to NOT read anything, by closing this window/tab, so .. if you think it's gonna be shit, dont read on and later on, feel that its shit and tag 'complaints' or whatnot)

CLEAR THE COUCH
CLEAR THE BED
SHIFT COMPUTER TABLE TO OLD POSITION
PUT TV AND CASTERS AT A CORNER
PUT BOOKSHELF OUTSIDE
LET NEW AIR-CON BE FIXED
LET NEW DOUBLE DECKER BED BE ASSEMBLED
PLUG IN THE COMPUTER & TV
SHIFT NEW STUDY TABLE
CLEAR CLUTTER
PUT UP THE 'DECOR'

and done.

& the iPod w/ video is treating me fine EXCEPT that some songs aren't at where it should be (Like clicking Artists and seeing what songs you have sync'd in) it's at the Songs list which actually should be at the Artist page or whatever. but it's a minor setback, no biggie..so now need to get a dock adapter/charger/whatever and a case for it.

a long winded post yes.
cont'd

i just read mr. miyagi's blog and yes, he has left brown town for other projects. i heard from the last podcast he was in, Robobeng, which was the funniest one up to date. and like the ones who commented on his post about him leaving the brown show, i have been stopping halfway during podcasts. like the latest one, it's too boring. school banding? i dont know if Imran Johari and Ruby Pan are the new members of the mr brown show and this Ivan (not ong or ng from 2E3'06) i dont know who is he (sorry, because i dont listen that far back .. i dont know if he had cameo appearances) now the puns are getting predictable or maybe just overused.

broadband? yes most people would think IT, Computers, Internet etc. but i saw the same pun in an Archie comic strip before .. [Archie jargon up ahead BEWARE] Prof. Flutesnoot can't remember the new thing that was introduced to Riverdale's computer lab and he saw Mr. Weatherbee walked by and he remembered it was 'Broadband'.

YES, it's not funny.

maybe a few giggles here and there. but i think this new team WILL make better podcasts. not all podcasts are like the 'Dead Birds' or 'Non-Political Podcast No. 6' i listened to some old podcasts before and ... it sucked :P mai hum mai hum ok it stops getting funny after the 3rd time. but to many people, it cracks 'em up every single mai and hum is sang.

my mum was dissapointed Mr Miyagi left. her fav = last protest island .. which is also my fav.
and honestly speaking .. i started not to laugh at the podcasts when Ruby started to star in them >.< mun =" Mr" benjamin =" Miyagi" style="font-style: italic;">(i dont know how many condos are there are supposed to be in the title) this shows that they still can produce funny podcasts. just let 'em warm up before getting sizzling hawt.

crap, i feel like PNYRO.
