Have been back in school for 2 weeks. First week wasn't very good, I was sick for the week. At least the week that has just passed by was better but my mental state can be even better!!! Anyways, I had a great brass class with Damian Patti, trombonist in the Singapore Symphony Orchestra. Really learnt some important aspects of playing from him and gained some more perspectives of trombone playing. I feel that my practice sessions are so much more productive when I plan and reflect on them. It really makes me know what I want to achieve and how to achieve my goals for the day and in the long run. I must really make it a habit.

Brass band rehearsal was great just now. Mr. Fujita sounded really good playing the concerto. Percussion section will come in on Wednesday so I hope it'll be another great rehearsal. Do come and catch the brass band in concert. Details are on the left. Hope to see you there!

I'm now back in Singapore after a wonderful holiday in Club Med Bintan! A really great place for a holiday; lots of activities, hyped-up staff, great food and comfortable rooms. It's too bad sea conditions are poor and we can't do water activities like kayaking, but it's alright, it was 4 days well spent there. Pictures are up on my facebook, do check it out!

School's gonna start again and it will kick off with a non-music module; how interesting.... Oh well, have to fulfill NAFA's requirements. So that's all for now, goodbye!
