I write this entry with a very sore thumb (literally). Today started out nice and easy...midway it was rather rushing...but night-time was once again nice and relaxed.
I got up at about 1ish and just lazed in bed till 2 or so. Had to travel to Sembawang to meet Ervin to go to Mr Philip Tan's house which is right beside the Sembawang MRT Station. We went over and well..the moment we got to his doorstep, his daughter had an accident where she fell down and was hurt some so Mr Tan and his wife brought her to a nearby clinic to make sure she was ok. In the meantime, Ervin and I worked up some tunes on a couple of Jimbae's (Not sure how you spell that) and we got some pretty cool tunes. By the time Mr Tan got back, it was around 5 and we started deciding what we'd bring to the Art House to use for our little performance. I ended up using one of the Jimbae's for my main instrument. When we actually performed, we switched around so I hit on the cowbells and on a bucket and bass drum too =) Anyhow, after deciding, we had to rush the stuff down to the car, pack it in and make our way to the Art House which is like..just beside the Fullerton Hotel. We made it to that place just nice at 6:50 so we had 40minutes to set up and do a short run trial to ensure everything was set. It went good really. Although we had no formal practice with the instruments, we just played imprompto and made up rythmns as we went along so it was really awesome!
It was especially nice of mom and Aunty Karen and Zi Ei (my godbro) to come down and watch too! Support is always a wonderful thing! =) At the end of everything we packed up....and myself with Mom and co. made our way for dinner. Mr Tan paid me on the spot yeah...very generous of him. He was saying that the organisers would take a hell of a long time so he just gave me my pay first so he'd just collect from them when they eventually hand him the money. =) Which reminds me...I've still not recieved my pay from Drum Cafe..wonder how long more that'll take *wonders* Oh well..in good time yeah!
Anyhow, I'm gonna chill out some and call it a night...or morning rather...its like 2:40am lol..Awesome weather I must say! Its always wonderfully raining and blowing wind at these ungodly hours for some unknown reason...geeez...wish it would be like this in broad daylight..that would make the day real nice and cooling xD Well good night!! Till tomorrw, ciao!!~ =D
