 Courage is fear that has said its prayers. I am the shoulder for you to cry on. I am the one who will always support you. I am the one who worries when you are blue. I am the one who promised not to make you cry. I am the guy who would cry with you. I am the person who will wipe your tears for you. I am the jester when you need a smile. I am the teacher who would reprimand when you're wrong. I am the friend who reprimands with pain. I am the first to smile when you see your mistakes. I will never forgive you. Only because I will never be frustrated with you. I am Sebastian and I do these because I love you. Sebastian Wong Aries 15 April 1991 |

Where's The Good In Goodbye?  My family =]Haaaaay guys! The much awaited Swiss Chinese Orchestra concert ended gloriously yesterday. I am so sorry for not blogging about the concert yeserday , but time was really limited and I felt that if I were to spend a mere 15 minutes on the day's events , I won't be doing justice to it. Although I am glad that the concert was a success , I can't help feeling sad that the concert was over. Exactly the way I felt 2 years ago , except that this time , it was much more stronger. Lets's have a rewind and go back to yesterday's concert alright? Yesterday , I met up with Lina and went to Republic Polytechnic together. Passer-bys kept staring at me because I was dressed ridiculously black but that didn't matter. Met all my C.O friends and percussionists at the concert hall. Wailoon immediately said I was dashing in black =p Had our concert rehearsal and stuff from around 1 to 4 if I am not wrong and I was walking around in Replublic Poly because I only had to perform in Technology. When it's time for Technology , I realised ( with much horror ) that the vibraphone was in front of other percussionists. I was very very reluctant to stand in front because I really didn't have much time to practise my part. Of course I didn't forget what Kathleen , Xueying and Raymond drummed into me in the past. This was that they said. '' Sebastian , do you know most of the audience down there do not know how to play the song we are performing? Even if they knew that song , they couldn't possibly remember what was the exact note you should play , so even if they somehow do manage to memorise all the scores and know exactly what you are supposed to play , as long as you exude an air of confidence , who will possibly know what mistake you made? '' So during the rehearsal , although my legs were shaking , I still acted as if nothing was wrong , because I know no one except for my beloved percussionists will realise the mistakes I made , and so what's there to be afraid of ? After the rehearsal , the percussionists had lunchboxes for dinner. Joshua ate 3 chicken wings and Raymond was lecturing him about cholestrol and fat levels. Aren't we like a huge and fun family? ;D Not long after , the concert started. I went to the audience's seats and watched the concert because I don't fancy watching the concert from the little television they have inside ^^ Saw Ruikang , Don , Jia Jin , Glenda , Eugene , Xiao Han , Shafiq , You Xiang , Jun xiong , Wayne and many many more of my schoolmates ^^ Missed them loads. I was pretty relaxed throughout the concert and paid most of my attention on percussion naturally. John was so good in the xylophone that pride swelled in me when I was watching him although I know I didn't teach him that instrument. Joshua played 徘鼓 in ( 台湾追想曲）I forgot the song's name but I really have to say that when he entered the song , his 台风 was awesome. My pride continued swelling when I saw Wailoon playing the dagu as his 台风 was nice as well except that I thought he appeared quite uneasy perhaps due to nervousness. ZhiChuen made so much inprovement that I can't help by smiling , his 音色 in 大鼓 was so wonderful that I wonder how many hours of practise was put into it. Paulina played the 徘鼓 nicely in 庆典序曲 and Jiawei's 台风 and confidence never fail to amaze me. Tricia's grace and style was so evident when she played the xylophone that I couldn't help but realise the massive change that took place since that silly girl used to throw her sticks on the floor when she couldn't play a particular piece and cried when she had difficulties in the xylophone. Lastly , if I were to say , ''Astound me'' I know that Raymond and Jieying's wonderful aura of confidence and excellent 台风 will never fail to do so. I was so proud of Percussion that I annoyed Ruikang and my other classmates so much when I kept saying , '' Look at that person on the right. Saw him/her? Excellent right? He is my junior/senior! '' '' Look at Raymond! Oh my god isn't that impressive!'' '' Look at Tricia , Look at John , Thats Jieying! Look at him , Look at her'' until they started ignoring me when I said that and just nodded their heads. Well I could go on forever if you want me to. ;D Next we performed Technology and claps and cheers were so evident from the audience that all of us smiled when we went into the backstage. ^^ After the entire concert is over , I went back to Swiss Cottage and moved the instruments with Percussion. Then , we had our dinner together and took pictures and stuff. Here they are.  Swiss Chinese Orchestra Concert Brochure! Again xD My beloved Percussion ^^ Before the concert ( We couldn't find Raymond and Jieying T.T) Percussionists acting cute xD ( Wailoon , acting cute not acting cool -.-) Smile! ;D See the heart me and Raymond is trying to make? ^^( I wasn't smiling because Joshua forgot to say 1,2,3 -.-)  Blinked at the wrong time again ^^  Me and Jieying ;D Eating! (Raymond was lecturing about hepatitis A and B, which totally freaked Jieying out xD) Mega Fishball! Stupid bug on veggie. The Pro-est The Pros The babies! xD  Joshua and John with scary auntie. x.x After our dinner together , all of us went into separated ways and went home. Seriously , when I said goodbye to them , I almost felt like crying. So much for '' We shan't be sad that everything is over , but glad because everything happened..'' As usual , I couldn't practise what I preached and I felt really really sad. I guess goodbyes were never easy to say. I still remembered that when I was preparing my farewell gift for Percussion and I spent 2 hours searching a good quote about friendship , I came upon a phrase like this. '' Good Friends Are Brothers and Sisters Fate Forgotten to Give You'' If that was true , I guess Fate had forgotten to give me 9 brothers and sisters , namely Raymond , Jieying , Joshua , Tricia , John , Paulina , Jiawei , ZhiChuen and Wailoon. And even though I am really sad what we have parted , I shall preach once more and say, '' People part to meet again.'' I love all of you so much. You guys are my best buddies. Will never forget any one of you. Don't any of you dare forget me too =] We are the pulse! ;D P.S. Jieying , the cockles are fried with the kway tiao , you eat the kway tiao also can get hepatitis A/B de. ;D P.P.S. Today , I started to realise that I love her more than I knew. P.P.P.S I gave someone a gift today too. She looked quite shocked though. =] |
