Weekends whole day out!

Been a rather busy but enjoyable weekend... And ironically, i thought work was much more enjoyable. haha!

It was the usual prac on sat... this week with charmaine instead... we really like taking turns huh... Prac wasn't really bad... but not the best too... I felt that we are not as prepared as we were for the concert 2 years ago... and i can't really figure out what's the problem.. it could be that they started planning much later this time... and i rmb we really had many long saturdays for the last concert... whereas this time practice time is really precious to the whole orchestra. But... i will do my best de lah... somemore this time got 2 gaohu less! like dotx...

Then took laoshi's car down to SCH. Finally i'm not late for the concert... but anyway.. the concert wasn't really up to what i expected.. or rather.. we expected... didn't really understand the wayang song... For 红楼梦... i was only attracted to the first and last song they played... -.- but i really like zhao laoshi's playing... Like no matter under what condition he can always produce the finest sound from his erhu... at least that's what i hear till now... But butterfly lover wasn't as great as i thought it would be... sians... first part already keep speeding... then fast part also speed... Plus i was already super tired... i didn't really have the energy to listen to everything.. haha! Anyway i didn't really like her violin sound... it's VERY soft even thou i'm sitting like super in front.. the sound is only bright when she plays the high notes... at first position... all very soft and kinda muffled. She played encore also! And it's like super obvious the soloist and the orchestra wasn't tgt. DOTX. But still went for the autograph after that.. but could see that most people can't be bothered. -.-

Sunday was work lor... stayed a bit later to finish up some work... then went over to vivo to find yushi... thinking that she can go off at 10pm.. then we can go eat.. in the end.. waited for them to finish packing up everything! And by the time we reached 85 market... it was almost 1am!!! And i was hungry like dunno what already. haha. But the process was quite fun.
