My Day on June 10, 2008; Tuesday

Ok, we start by…me waking up. Lol. Whatever to that.

Well, I went to school and I think I say the 7:20 43 CB! <33 I say “I think” because I don’t really remember. >_<;; So lost and so cute looking. <3

ANYWAY!

I get to school, without Niko, my one year and five days younger sister, because she’s at home sleeping. At school, it’s make ups and 5th period finals for this day of June 10, 2008 Tuesday. XD HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

I get breakfast and go to my locker with Koala (Ada) and get ready to clean it. LOL. SO MANY THINGS! I have pictures, of course. I’ll post ‘em up later when I get the chance. XD All my stuff was on the floor and I managed to put like 20 pounds of my 11th grade school life in four reusable bags (like the ones from Wallgreens) and stuff them back into my locker with like five egg crates for Music class. HAHAHA. =] Tiffy Unni came and was all: “OMFG. Was all that in your locker?!” Lol. <3 Fun fun. Koala helped me sort everything out. I have a before and after picture. Hahaha.

Hm, then we went to the library where we say Baby Gene and Diana (C.; SOTA) studying for their Spanish final. Hahaha. Lol to Baby Gene for his singings =_=;; Kuya Will was there because he asked me to help him with the Chemistry final =. I asked Tiffy Unni to come with me to help him instead. Hehehe.

Huminah. I also asked Tiffy Unni to help me with Trigonometry Final <333 WHICH I AM NOT SURE IF I PASSED BUT whatever. We hung out, sang songs, watched Kuya Will and the Duckie Wuckie (StePHen) molest each other, take picture, play guitar, etc. People who were there: Me, Tiffy Unni, Koala, Kuya Will, the Duckie, Narangja(Orange), Peachie, Ayabuchi….Gene, Diana. Lol. Fun, fun. Oh and Steve (ShengYuan).

ANYWAY!

Dondeck was supposed to come too but was a bit late and couldn’t meet him in time before 5th period final. Anywhoo. We met up  later. O_O;;; Uhhhh I dunno. Do I remember? Hahahhaaaaaaa.

ANYWAAAYYY! I took my 5th period final– TRIGONOMETRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHH! I actually think I passed but I’m too scared to ask Mr. Corea if I passed. Hahaha. ><; Pokie wasn’t there. :( She was sick. :( :( :( Up to now, I don’t know if she took her final but either way she knows it and will pass with an A in his class. Kekek, meh.

Hmmm. Then….hehhe. While doing the final, I “finished” early ish and played with Jackie’s DS! XD Which I had for like, what, three days? Hehehe, fun. Me and Peachie playing with it trying not to be loud. Then we left. :P

Hurk. Lunch? Aish. Nuna was there. I helped her clean her locker. We ate lunch, talked blah blah blah. Don’t really wanna state what she said but meeeh. :D Well, all I know is that she has moved on and I can’t wait to meet her new —friend. :D :D XDD SHE DIDN”T GO SHOWCASE. :(

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

What did I do after? Hehehe…OH! We rehearsed for the Showcase. World Music class went to rehearsal. woohoo. Uhm. We did Gamelan Jegog first <3 The whole sheebang. XDD Coming in, sitting, Jaran Dauh, Cret Nong, bowing. :D Fun times…I MISS THEM ALREADY!! >__<:;;;

Then we went to the Dojo and moved the American Gamelan to the gym where the show was going to be held. :D Strange, it was being held INSIDE when it was NICE OUTSIDE…. =___=; Unlike last year when it was outside and freakishly cold. :X

ANYWHOO! Steve came in and helped us move the American Gamelan; he moved the Gong, lol. o heavy! Fun, either way. Hehehe.

We moved everything, blah. We then had a sound check in the gym–it sounded soooo nice~! XD

Hmmm. Skip, skip. XD Well, then! WAAAH! For the new piece, Tiffy Unni and I switched instruments and I had to learn the bonang (sp?!) part. Hehe, it was hard and it sort of still is, but I got it. Kekkekeke ^^; <3 U UNNI! XDD

Had a practice run with the taiko and creative writing thingy. I should post up the program. Hahaa, and I should make this more…organized. Well, whateverrr.

Then we also had a sound check with the Taiko Drums–omfg. It was loud ish. XD HELLA LOUD. We played Hiriyu, both parts, and when it ended, it was sooooo quiet. It had a nice ring. <3

Then we had break for like an hour. It was now four ish.

OH! HAHHAHA <3

We had this thing for Ayabuchi. We used toilet paper instead of string because Ms. Sen couldn’t find any at that time or something–a last minute thing. XD

Well, we throw the toilet paper around and we say something nice to Ayabuchi because she was moving to San Jose and this was her last show with us.! :( ><;;;

We all said something nice and Ayabuchi started crying!!!!!! <33333 I wanted to cry too! >____<;; Waah! It was really nice. It was like a web of … toilet paper that connected all of us together. <3 WE LOVE YOU AYABUCHI! ALWAYS AND FOREVER! COME VISIT US! <33

Well, then we put all the toilet paper on her haha and she used it to wipe her tears away. <3 (heehs, SOOO UNDETAILED!!! :( …)

Blah , blah. We had break. HAHHAA. Tiffy Unni jumped over ShengYuan. XDDD Baby Gene sang songs. Dondeck and Taylor were….everywhere. XD

We played around, sang on the microphone. XD FUNN!

ANYWAY! Showcase!!!! <333

Yeah.

It was just awesome. … I’m SO LAZY! ARGG! BUT I WILL GO ON! XD

———-

Well, we do start the show, but from like 6 – 6:30 pm, we were playing American Gamelan just as guests were arriving. XD 

Then we played Gamelan Jegog.

Then if was like Creative Writing, and Drama? I don’t know. I was moving instruments……I wanted to see the Freshmen play, haha. Yeah, they played. XD

Then we had break.

Then we had Taiko again 2009! Lol. We figured the ending before the show started. It was good. Ish hahhaa <3

Then was Creative Writing and Taiko Drumming Collaborations. <3

Then was … uh, Creative Writing. XD

Then Taiko 2010. XD <3

Then Drama.

And finally Taiko Drumming again. <333 XDD

I LOVED THE LAST ONE! I WAS SO ENERGETIC! XDDD Many people told me that it was fun to watch me, I was totally enthusiastic and so energetic and so happy. Even Mommy and Daddy told me. <33

ANYWAY!

That’s the basic. I got lazy to do details. Which is why I think I will fail  in AP English if I get accepted. O_O;

Anyway, I FINALLY DID IT! I wrote a blog. XDD

Next time, I will write down on paper (haha, as if) and see if I can….go on!

Anyway!

Wanna go! XD

<3 Always Nini <3

 

I will post pictures….WILL. I have everything on photobucket. But I want a hard copy of everything. Plus there was so many pictures in facebook…. I WILL STEAL THEM ALL!! XD With credits of course. lol.

Well, see ya’ll later! XD

ppbounce.gif image by ritaiyo

Today was our first Taiko gig outside of school! Wee~ We performed for Harvy Mill Elementary School (I think) in San Francisco, around five minutes from Twin Peaks.

It was really awesome. It was hard to get everyone there–teacher was stressing out, students were kind of late, etc. Or something. Hahha.

We took buses and I rode with Ms. Sen to the school with two of the drums. Rawr. And OMG! Ms. Sen’s . . . teacher’s . . . truck had the rest of the drums and !!! One of the little babies almost fell off the truck!! Well, it was held nicely by those things . . . I’ll post a picture of it later. I’m lazy and tired. I don’t know, it was interesting. Ms. Sen looked really small when she climbed on top of the truck, trying to fix the drum. Hehehe, poor baby! <3

Anyway, the rest of the trip there was fine and it was only five minutes or so; not that far. =]
We unloaded and also met Natasha’s mommy and the principal. XD Hm.

Many things went on, I don’t really want to be descriptive as I usually am because I am super lazy and very concious……or however you spell that word. XD; Well, everyone arrived (after many phone calls to everyone to make sure they are coming and where they are and blah blah blah~!) and we had pizza! It was satisfying. :3 Hm.

Well, we practiced. HAHAHHAA! Since the fifth graders were still eating their lunch (with the scary ladee shouting randomly ><”’) we had to play quietly– with our HANDS! YAY! It sounded really nice! I don’t know, I kept laughing. I really REALLY liked. =] It really sounded nice. ^///^. I couldn’t ask Dondeck to record it because because my digital camera had no space for recording videos~!   Yes, very very depressing on my part. Anywho.
We practiced … >_<;; But we didn’t get to practice Hiriyu (sp). Ohhh, the fun.

Hm, what else.

Well, we eventually starting playing for the little ones. OMG. They’re so cute. “I LOVE YOU!” Luis: “I LOVE YOU TOO!” ><” SO ADORABLE. ARG! XD

They were so supportive! So loud and so cute! It was amazing to here them exclaiming and screaming for us. It was so beautiful. <3
It felt like we were professionals! MWAHHAHA! XD <3

Hm. Dondeck was there to record it. XD

We played: Matsuri Daiko, “V” Formation/Tsunami, Hiriyu.
WOW.

I don’t know.

I’m getting super lazy. Maybe I’ll update this later.

Or if anyone who is in this class and sees this, come and comment and share your experience! Or add on to this or something! XD

<3 Always, Rita II/Nini
