Band on wednesday was pretty interesting. I came to for band after bio class and found out that we were playing Yiddish for Speech Day. So I'm gonna have to play my solo in front of a gazillion people I know this time. That's 10 times worse. God, help me. Anyways, Swee Jin was conducting us, and she was in a funny mood that day. Like the second time we played, Mrs Tan and Mr Ong were like trying to get us to play in a more lively way, so Swee Jin also was conducting all lively and stuff. Like she was bouncing up and down with her ponytail bobbing up and down and stuff. Her face was really red. She kinda made me think of a great Bouncy Tomato.
And it just so happened that that thought entered my head right before my solo part. So when I was lpaying my solo I was looking at The Bouncy Red Tomato and was trying my hardest not to burst out laughing. Do you have any idea how embarassing it would have been if I had?!! So when I played the freaking solo I squeaked from the effort of trying not to laugh at The Bouncy Red Tomato. But after she heard me squeak, The Bouncy Red Tomato turned her Bouncy Red head and gave me a WHATTHESNEEZE??!?!! look. Which made iteven harder for me, producing yet another lovely squeak. Brilliant. And Si wei told me that when I was squeaking Mrs Tan was grinning. I don't know if it was because of my squeaks, or if she found my struggling to control myself funny, but she was apparently amused. Geeee. Stupid Tomato's fault.
Then we had like 10 minutes tutoring with this jap dude and dudette. When they saw that my E flat clarinet was an RC Prestige they were all WHOOOAAAA!!!! and fussing over it. The dude was like "very expensive!!" in his jap accent. Like dude! I know. $6000 isn't a small sum. Hoho. But my B flat clar isn't very cheap either. I think it's $4000 or something. WAHAHA! So cool.
When we went back to the band room, I got the hiccups. So when we were like falling out, the whole band was quiet then suddenly *HIC*. GAWD!!! It was so embarassing. Sam and marcia burst out laughing and one of the leaders was like "stop laughing". ARGH!! Terrible.
