MUSIC CAMP 2010 with Hougang Sec Symphony Band

DAY 1

on the 15th of june at 7.15 am, the chs band members are found to be gathering at the netball court.
the OCs.

well guess what were we preparing for?


THE MUSIC CAMP 2010!

well for this year, it wont be the same as the annual band camp we hold every year.

this year, we have the Hougang band members joining the camp too!

as usual, the start of the camp = clean up!
the dorms, toilets, even the canteen - they were all cleaned by us (:

dumped our stuff in the storeroom, and off we were to start cleaning!

excited to start cleaning!

dorm cleaning in progress.

moving instruments , stands , etc (:

arranging stuff in lecture theatre.

after clean up, we had a short concert practice.
during the concert practice, hougang sec's people called us and said that they were reaching.
and off we were to welcome them!

after contemplating for a long time.. we decided to welcome them with clapping "爱的鼓励".
and so we wait..
and wait....
and wait....
and wait.....
*cellphone rings* "the hougang people are coming!"

everybody scrambles back into their position to prepare to welcome the hougang people.

meanwhile..

lugging heavy bags and instruments.

and here they come!

afterwards, we had lunch. and it was time for sectionals.
we had concert practice after sectionals.

at night, we had an awesome dinner, which was the welcome dinner for the hougang people.
spaghetti, mushroom soup, pumpkin soup, garlic bread, your typical italian meal, homemade by the awesome mothers of some chs band members.
it was simply DELICIOUS.
thank you, moms!

after dinner, we had games.
which includes a guess-whats-the-plasticine-thingy-is game, the rhythm game, the blindfold/pingpong ball game, and the newspaper game.

everyone having a good time.

its a plasticine tortoise!

trying hard to replicate the plasticine figure made by the previous person.

needless to say, we had a great time and were tired out too.
it was time to bathe and sleep.

some members didnt even bathe and went to sleep. this is deeply discouraged, as it may harm your health! and it may discomfort others.

and that was how our first day of camp went.
