Thursday
Woke up at quarter to 9 and decided I was too lazy to go to school
Got out of bed 15 minutes later because of guai secondary school upbringing
Sauntered into class half an hour late
All feelings of coolness were swept away when 2 other latecomers strolled in 10 minutes after me
Got through day as per normal, until....
MIDI. Teacher started talking about chord progressions
The ones in the Classical world, cos everyone then used pretty much the same combinations
Then started talking about synthesizers
Got bored
Started playing with Cubase
Decided, for fun, to make a Power Rangers techo piece
Had gotten the flute bit down
Did the drums (a very long and ardous task)
But along the way got distracted and opened another track with piano
Came across some funny (but very nice-sounding) chords
Wrote them in
Played what I had so far, but at that point, I had forgotten I had anything else written down
Flute bit + piano bit = WOW
Ditched the PR idea
Filled in strings bit
And tinkly bells, because I like tinkly bells
Saved everything
Tried to duplicate file, so I could have a spare
File was deleted
Kath cried
Kath cursed Cubase
Kath cursed the Macs
Kath's screams were not heard by the other occupants of the room, as they were all wearing headphones
AngryKath: *to Cubase* You STOLE my file!
OptimisticKath: You'll make another one!
AngryKath: *waving fist* ...I will!
OptimisticKath: A better one!
Kath quickly wrote down what she could remember in notebook/sketchbook/diary
In note letter names, no less!
Kath bitched to poor Mp all the way on home the train
Friday
Got to school early
Worked on her piece
MADE IT!
Was very happy with self
Then exported it for her thumbdrive
So she could save it on her laptop and play at parties to show off :P
When she opened it, found out that the exported file had killed all her instruments
My flute! My strings! My....my...tinkly bells!!!!
However, the music had the nice effect of sounding like an extremely complicated piano piece
Which Kath liked
Since Kath likes confusing the crap out of people
Kath then looked at the clock, and noticed that the CD teacher still hadn't arrived
Kath then decided that the rumour she'd heard last night about there being no CD might have been true
But Kath didn't care, since she had her lovely piece
Saturday
Piano lesson. Ugh
All out of practice
Fingers got stuck
Felt doomed
Exam in December
Oh no!!!!!!
Arranged with cousins and Secondary school buddies to come over for party tomorrow
We were gonna watch Pirates!
Then next week we're gonna watch Pirates 2!
Yahoo!
Fell asleep on sofa
Woke up an hour later, at 3pm
Mp arrived 15 minutes later to do our PW
Was reminded of Primary school by all the colourful playdoh
Hands got yucky and dirty
Cussed at the models for falling apart all the time
Stored in a PPG clock box that I bought 4/5 years ago and never opened
Sunday
Went to church
Was quite an interesting service
Met lots of the Sunday school people there
Wandered around a bit
Had some nice quiet time there
Went for lunch
After lunch bought lots of food from Cold Storage
Went home and saw Queen was waiting outside
She came too early, darnit!
Helped her chimify her report
Jester came soon after
Then Jason
Then Shell
Then heard Elaine wasn't coming
All sat around playing Taiti
I won every round!
Mwahahahaha!!!
Then got phonecall King wasn't coming
All ran upstairs to watch Pirates
Watched Pirates
Wen in and out of room several times to, a. answer phone b. get pepsi c. get pepsi for Queen, d. go to bathroom
Felt bad about walking in front of screen so climbed over sofa and nearly squashed everyone lots of times
After movie was hit by a plotbunny by Shell
Am very excited
Kath wants to write it NOW!!!!!!!!
But regarding the plot, Kath is in the market, as it were
Had lots of fun playing with cats
Still finding a real name for The Big One
Cat had fun playing the leaf-on-a-broom-twig game
Chatted while the guys played ping pong
Almost got hit several times
Said bye to everyone when they left
Today
Got up on time but decided to sleep in
Had a weird dream about garden mazes, showers, old people, and Corpse Bride
Took a taxi to school at 1030
Almost forgot box of clay models and ran back into house to fetch it
Taxi driver was perhaps a bit annoyed
Came to Food Court and sat down with laptop and ice lemon tea
Ice in the tea is rapidly melting
Tea tastes funny today
Waiting for Mp to come out of KEYS and give me a heart attack, just like she always does -_-;;;
All in all, a very profitable 4 days, dontcha think?
PS. Queen - Bring more Subway cookies!!!!!!!!
Jester - You better not back out next week!
Shell - When can we start wriiitiiiing????!!!!!
Elaine - Hope you're feeling better soon....don't get too excited over things, kay?
King - You better come next week!
Mp - *nudge* *is hunting for Prowl fanfic*
