Went back to school for band only today. Was late cause I miss the bus D: rush like mad into the band room. But once I reach there, Ms Liu and Mr. Yea asked me about the transfer to saxophone.I seriously did not thought that they will consider me. Since I am already sec4, not to mention that I don't even know if I can make it back next year. I thought they will have someone in sec2 or something to transfer over?! I didn't even think much of it after telling Ms Liu that I was interested in playing the saxophone yesterday, and I have 0% of hope when I told her even though she took it quite seriously. I mean, even if she agree, I expected the conductors to disagree. So yeah, after talking to them, they said they will let me try and I spent the whole band section today in the storeroom self-learning how to play the saxophone. I hope I make the right choice. I already miss my clarinet D:
I was given the Alto Saxophone~! Heavier than expected and I still don't really get the right way to hold it, it just felt weird? Since I already played the Clarinet for 4years, I was able to er make sound? using the saxophone, in short thing is easier for me :D Although adapting to a new set of fingerings is difficult. Learn everything through using Essential Element. But I became hungry and began to loss concentration at page14 in addition, I can't get the Low D sound correct! But I can't seems to control my volume, I sound so loud that the whole band can heard outside.
Bought home the saxophone to practice and I have problem standing straight carrying it on my back. So if one day my sitting posture became like Nino's, I blame the saxophone! Anyway, hands hurts after the 4hours of practice ,I feels like chopping it off D:
Love what everyone wears here
Especially Aiba's zebra print jacket :D
