sabrina bought a 16 gb ipod nano for 300 ):
ohhhhh SABRINA thank you so much for mentioning me in your posts and plurk!
ahaha, i feel like a superstar... or maybe even lady GAGA (that's what isabelle said x)
ohkay... mmm i have nothing more to write.
oh wait there's something.
(excuse my invisble punctuations)
I COMPETED IN THE MALAYSIA WORLD BAND COMPETITION!
booyah! *does the hula*
yeah i know it's only the street parade(but hey they closed down jalan ampang for us so it STILL should be considered a big thing BUT *deep breath* WORLD! there's a "world" word in the name and it's an international thingie with south africans leaving their giraffes and capes (cape town maaah right? ;D) and goddamn awesome indonesian and thai percussionists...jeez i could go on forever and ever and ever and... well you get the idea.
or you could always use your imagination (:
Seriously, the Garuda team from Indonesia was goddamn fantastic. and also the one with the red sparkly uniform. and the one with ohwow biggie snares. yes this is country gal goes to big city and meets big guns. or drums would be more accurate. ha.
The Indonesian bands changed my perspective of their country. Really. How many hours and days and nights did they trained and sweat to achieve their greatness that I saw at the drum battle? What did they endure to climb to the heights? Do their blisters hurt when they grip the sticks? Or are they immune to such pain when are blinded by the passion to success, to win, to be the champions of percussion?
I salute to ya'll. The thai too. Great technique and skills.
(I especially enjoyed the part where the muscles of the quad players bulged) but at the end of the day, I think the Indos are better. mmm yeah they ROCK. awesome routine and i absolutely loved their variations and crescendoes and decrescendoes... accents... doublestrokes... one word- AWESOME. so freakin awesome. possum.
yes i was starstruck. still am, i think.
psst renie sab loki sama tofu ;D see you tomorrow at ou!
