11th Febuary 2007
Sunday
Old faces, new faces.

Supposed to have a class outing to Sentosa in the morning at 10am. But almost everyone either decided to abandon me, or have something important that cropped up. So the outing became one that consisted of only Bonn and me. What a great way to start the day. We roamed the shops of Vivocity for a short while and then decided to go to Compasspoint. On the way to Compasspoint, we managed to get Jason, Loga and Sheri to meet us there for some catching up. Thus, class outing to Sentosa was changed to clique gathering at Compass Point. We ended up playing truth or dare beside Sakae Sushi.

Had dinner with my family at Sakura after the mini gathering, and then down to Lasalle-SIA for Philyouth practice. Initially, I was thinking of staying at home to study for the paper tomorrow. But I decided to follow my heart and go down for practice. It was the first practice for this new season, and majority of the Philharmonic Youth Winds members had changed. Old faces no longer existed among the many musicians that held their instruments. Instead, new faces stared back as I sought for people I knew.

The new Philyouth, conducted by Mr David Glosz, read through a few pieces. The band sounded different from how it used to sound. Maybe it is because of the different sound concepts everyone has. I sincerely hope that the sound will improve soon, and that Philyouth will quickly regain its former prestige.
