After aimlessly walking around because all the shops were closed, we ended splitting ways to save time. Lynette went with Sachiho, Brandon with Ayano, I went with Ami and Saaya. Heard from Brandon that Ayano spent the money like water, 200 over bucks on clothes etc. Saaya only spent 2 bucks on ice cream!!

(oh ya, there's a mysterious little green dot beside Lynette. HAHAHA)

Siying was telling everyone about her Fumiya. If you are curious, this is how he looks like when he plays the Timpani.

As for my favourite Koudai, he looks like this when he plays the Tambourine (oh, the vast difference) *the guy in the background is a hilarious guy btw*

the section's virgin jump shot. HAHA. Kudos to Charmaine for taking such an excellent shot.

virgin "everyone suddenly become very excited" shot. I'm sure we will never forget the story behind/after this picture!!!! *LAUGHS OUT LOUD*

because it got a little too exciting (and noisy) while we were highing, had to stop due to certain inconveniences. THEN MEIDEN CAME OMG ADSLKDJSA;FSHKLD. SAAYA AND AYANO RECOGNIZED ME OMG I COULDN'T BREATHE.
dear Abigail エビゲル (e-bi-ge-ru): Ayano asked for you! so sweet right!


had speeches and such at the gallery, then we sang COSMOS. shit, that tear jerker.

virgin Meiden+Meridian DBR picture! :D siying and I are damn old btw. everyone else is 16-17.

Band Camp Extras: professionally taken studio photos.

Hello people! In case you people think that we are dead this blog is dead, NO, IT'S NOT the case! Just that we have too many ongoing activities that we have not much time to do any updates to the blog! (:

Anyway, here are some smexy pictures taken of the MJCSB double reed players [be it old or new] during the MJCSB 2009 Band Camp: Vivace (:

Anyway, the backgrounds are mostly blue, because we were trying to create a "studio" feel.

Do enjoy our artistic pictures!

Disclaimer: No animals/insects were harmed during the making of this pictorial series.


the "not so oboe" oboists...

3 bassoonists, and a percussionist on the phone.

Nice right, taken by CHRISTINE (:
