jamie and me made up plans for our kids next year! :D hahaha.

1) they will come two and a half hour before/after every band prac:
-2h for warm ups
-half an hour for blow paper on wall thingy

warm up will consist of the following:
-long tones (16 counts each)
-leewei's fav articulation excercise (the torture one) in circle of fifths. instead of 4 counts each, play 8 counts.
-the fun articulation excercise in circle of fifths.
-symphonic band technique: everything. (they will play so many times they can memorise everything)
-ms leong's warm up

blow paper on wall:
-they will stand in one line and blow the paper onto the wall for half an hour. by one month, they should be able to make the paper stay on the wall for 1min.

2) they will stay have sectionals every day for 4hours. and we wont need to be there coz they are disciplined and guai enough to conduct their own sectionals and be trusted not to slack.

3) they will always be in tune, anywhere and anytime. we will save the money needed for tuners to buy reeds (coz they play so long reeds get worn out faster). their sound will all be the same because they play with each other for a few hours everyday.

4) they will pay to the section fund per week (and will not complain). the section fund will be used to buy more reeds and better/more instruments. there will be another bobby and another sophia! :D yay.

muahahaha.

oh and have i mentioned the circle of fifths is in harmonic and melodic minor scales too. we must do alot of circle of fifths! :D

p.s. go listen to clarinet candy. it's crazy!
p.p.s. im pat. blogger is screwed.
