MWBC 2009

Day 1
well, first of all, i was there late. the band departed Penang on the 11th of Dec and i was there on the 14th of Dec. before i reach UKM's hostel, i imagined the hostel will have nice beds, air-cond, most importantly air-cond and a shower. UNFORTUNATELY when i arrived at UKM's hostel, i was shocked! it's kinda dirty, there was no air-cond and no shower! omg it's so shity but we still had to live in it. so a few minutes later, practice. == just arrived also need to practice. oh btw, only 4 ex-members and i was there on the 14th. the rest was in Terengganu on the 11th and 13th in KL. so after practice we went to Kajang for sate. i was so frustrated cause we came all the way here just for sate. we could've done something better than going to Kajang to have SATE. anyway after that went back to the hostel and sleep. we were supposed to reach the hostel at 10 something to 11 BUT the bus driver got lost. so we reached the hostel at abt 12am something to 1am.

Day 2
morning........practice again. then had lunch. the whole band went t KLCC except for the Pipes and Drums who decided to stay back for practice cause the next day was their competition. so we practice practice practice until we've perfected the songs. not bad you know. thanks to who? thanks to muahhh. HAHAHAHA =P then at night we continued to practice to make sure everything is 101% no problemo. after that, sleep

Day 3
next morning. Pipes and Drums woke up at 4am in the morning to get ready. wore our uniforms. warmed up our pipes, practice for the last time and at 7 something, we moved to Berjaya Times Square. 4 other pipe bands were there. St John, St John Alumni, UiTM and KL Pipes and Drums. after competing...btw this is the preliminary rounds. then results time. the last place for the preliminary rounds will perform first in the finals on the next day in Pavillion. so we got last because of our shitty chanter reeds which are so old and so out of tune and it's so sucky. for the results, go to Penang COPAD's link in my "other's blogs" section located at the right side of this page. at night the whole band went for the Street Parade competition at Jalan Ampang. at that time, it was raining heavily and they're not cancelling the parade. so we had no choice but to continue under the heavy rain. we were soaking wet. but luckily we were the first few contingents and we get to get out of the rain earlier. not like the South Africa band who is the last contingent. so unlucky for them. lol then go back planned for who wants to go back to penang and who wants to stay and watch the grand finals. 26 wants to go back and 25 stayed. the Pipes and Drums team had no choice but to stay back cause they had to perform in the grand finals. but it was worth it cause our faces was on world television through ESPN and Star Sports...LIVE. hahahahaha the programme will be on ESPN and Star Sports for 2 months. so to those who didn't watch it, don't worry. you still have a chance to watch it till next month i think. =)

Day 4
woke up and helped those who are gonna go back. those who're going back will be helping us to bring back whatever stuff that we don't want to leave here except for their own instruments. so after that. some of the members went to Pavillion to watch the Drum Battle while some of us stayed back. the Pipes and Drums team went to..............sleep cause we were too tired. 1 hour later. i woke them up. practice for one last time and we changed into our uniforms. when we reached Pavillion, a lot of ppl were there and now Sri Dasmesh - the Malaysian Sikh Pipe Band was there to compete. they couldn't make it the day before cause most of their members are not in Malaysia. so today they're all here and they're gonna go first instead of us cause......you know la. if you don't know then only ask me la. lol so before we start, we had a meeting. we told ourselves there's no point in competing anymore cause we know that we're gonna lose. so we just told ourselves to have fun and sure enough we had fun playing the songs. ppl acknowledge us as the entertainment band. well at least that's what we thought cause our songs can make them dance while the other bands played simple dimple(learned this idiom from St John..haha) songs. then results. we knew it..we got last. but who cares? next year, we're gonna rule over them. i have confidence. the Western Australia Coastal Scottish Pipers were the guest players for this year's MWBC Pipe Competition 2009 and let me tell you, eventhough they're only a Grade 3 pipe band, they're super d duper. they're such pros man. anyway after that we went to Midvalley Megamall. when it was time to go back, we saw this really really really really hot hottaty hot hot and very very very beautiful with a perfect body lady standing at the fence? i don't know what it's called but whatever. she pushed her ass out and upwards eventhough she knew that we're looking. LOL so hot. hahaha then went back...sleep.

Day 5
woke up, bathed, had breakfast and changed into nice nice mia clothes and went to Sungei Wang mall and Berjaya Times Square's indoor theme park. i tell you the roller coaster, the DNA mixer the other ride which i forgot what's the name was SUPERB! hahaha vincent vomited after he went on the Dizzy Izzy. hahaha. play play play. then went back hostel, Pipes and Drums changed into our uniforms. i tell you, we've been wearing that same uniform for 3 continuous days already. after that went to Putrajaya for the grand finals. woah i tell you....very nice laaa. after everything was done. everybody went centre stage and PARRRTTAAAYYY. haha well just shouted, danced and sang. haha

Day 6
woke up and went to this band seminar in Wisma Bentley until abt 3 something. then we went to the curve. after that went to some restaurant for the farewell dinner. let me just tell you this, all the other bands are SOO LANSI!!!! they don't even care if we're there or not. so we just had our own fun la since they don't want to come join us. play play play. dinner, eat eat eat. after that party time! woo hoo. the South African singers were really entertaining. party again!! haha sweat a lot. one of the ex members said, "this is like an underaged club". hahaha well i think it was true. had fun till 11 something i think then went back hostel sleep.
