There was SARS and band prac stopped for some time... syf was post phoned... GOT GOLD FOR SYF!!! we worked hard for it man... Got hospitalised for neumothorax (in layman's terms: hole in the lung). Also organised the first camp in the new vs... quite fun as we got to try out many new things... went for some course which changed me drastically...

Typical Saturday -- wasted. I had a great plan. Wanted to do 3 mindmaps and finish my remaining e-maths homework. I did make progress... I have started making better use of my week ends though... Better: from total waste to waste. Still not sure what to do to the section. Next few weeks will be quite full of action. Good luck to the juniors... Hope they will survive me and the conductors. They gonna see a side of me they have neva imagined existed... Yesterday went to this recital by a pro... Not much better than us though... just about a TONNE better... or A FEW TONNES? MORE? I'm gonna be better than that in a few years. I set goals with quantum. Lets just make it a century.
