My Daiko Life
Alirght. i promised to have the award show after i blog this entry .
My Daiko Life.. hiaz.. and wow.. its been 3 years liao. I been in that club for 3 damn it Years. So much ups and downs. Many quiters and losers. lol.. well well.. a little abit of what ive been thru these few years in that club where the drum beats so loud it wakes up the rain God.
Year 1
When i 1st entered SP.. i was siting at the convention hall.. as they flashed out the pictures of CCAs they have at SP.. somthing caught my eye.. the Daiko group. So i when for the CCA drive and got myself..enlisted.. ;p
Back then I was.. a noob drumer. Really noob.. was taught how to stand "5 O'clock direction" , how to hold the sticks and of course.. how to shout. Training then was diffcult... very diffcult as compared to the ppl in charge now... slack and under disciplined. Back then. the trainers were very fiece, there was this bitch. .. if u remember i wrote on one entry in 2005 that kept scolding me.. say i no stamina to countiue traingin blah blah. lol.. she taught me the daiko style funk.. which i felt like fuck... the president that time told me this : " Ivan once youre good enuff , i 'll let you perform" it was the Misubitsu performance that time, good old days , good memories. Back then there were like 8 guys and 11 gals... my clan was big i really wanted to quit... but i told myself if i can make it these 3 years with them.. its will be my accomplishment.
After a few months...
I got promoted to Assitance Quater master. I was thrown to friday practice with the gals. And then there were ppl like HR, J, XXX,XXX omg.. i forgot thier names liao.. lol...they were the famous F5 guys older then me by one daiko year. Yes some of them thought they learn daiko songs fast.. but they in my opinon lack the basic style. Quite as i was that time.. i didnt mix around much with them.. nor with the seniors. The seniors back then were YZ, ALY,JL,LM those ppl .. treated them " the F-5" like Daiko cream of the crops. Back then .. i remember being treated like an insignificant person.. its like i nv existed when ever i go help them carry drums or go practice or go attend the AGM. Even the gals in my clan were more able to connet with them (Seniors) cause they like to convers in Chinese. Except i remember JW was quite friendly towards me. Other then that.... all treated me like nothing. Then the diease struck ..this diease is called the MIA diease.. slowly one by one fell victim to the MIA diease.. as they slowly disappear.. like 1 - 2 mths nv come.. then come back again..then disappear again for a long time.. then come back again..its like wtf..treat the club like a hotel. Got once my clan the gals one of them .. i think, embrassed to come back..ask the mother to come down with her...to see her train.. disgusting man.. Ya soo .. slowly ..the gals in my clan and the F5 guys began to say bye bye to the club.. it was then ALY started to talk to me.. we both were to learn the old version of DOH... i remembered clearly.. i started interacting with the future committee. And thus i entered year 2 of daiko.
Year 2
After YZ left, ALY became president...and i was PRJ.C cum quater master. My entire clan... gone. Except left me.. i started feeling significant and ppl in the club were talkign to me.. " Of course la.. left me only what.. then what? Talk to the drums arh" lol ... I remembered being tasked to get the New rules up for the club house and its was harvest for the new generation of daiko players.. So like after the CCA drive.. my 1st CCA drive.. we harvest ppl like ZC,MZ,MO,JCK,FURN,LC,XX,XH.. and of course my dear sharon.. once Sharon join my daiko club liao.. i felt more at familar in my club. So ya.. we trained them.. and ALY they all trained me..soo been thru a lot of performances in Year 2.. i really spent alot of time to build up the club... as there were very few senoirs then.. and my clan left only me. I really did alot of stuff like organising, recording down perforamances , going to se Hope, checking Mail box, cleaning up the club house.. all the dirty work the president "ASK" me to do.. and i did it willingly.. its called boot licking.. yes .. i have to confess.. i wanted to be the next president..i really wanted it or the VP position... either positions will make me happy. However, life is always full of surpries.. during my ITP.. i got news that two of my junoirs got the VP, P positions.. Sharon got the QM title and FND got the PRJ.C .. i was reduced to ordinary memeber.. lol..i remembered feeling very betrayed , upset and angry. it was then i really wanted to quit.. but i promised myself to hang on one more year blah. I still havent forgive them though..only time will heal all wounds. Then we enter year 3
Year 3
After the transition.. i told myself to be humble and just contiue to support the club.. as i love drums and performing. So i decided to support the New President... after a few months i began to realise it was a blessing in disguise... end up all the work or rather most of the work were given to the "P" person to do it.. there wasn;t any1 helping him.. organsing, planing every damn thing all give him do..i always thought to myself.. lucky i nv got this kind of responsiblity. hehe..
There were alot of conflict through this year..the P didnt manage things well at 1st, lot of complains from the memebers and from MR E.. Break his drumset soo many times... and it was partly my fault cause i nv guide or assit him the least bit...the alumni had to come down and settle the problem.. lol.. Once the problem was settled.. the MIA dieases come again..some ppl felt they were too left out of the group then quit, some ppl genna insulted then quit, some ppl just quit cause they very lazy to come. I was also surpised that the VP insulted me on her blog (Yes i read ur blog that time).. say what i nv come la.. i nv support them la.. blah X3. I wanted to scold her cause it was going to exam .. i cannot always go back mah.. eventually.. i didn;t la.. i forgave her. Totally forgave her. We even when to tioman .. and i remembered the good times i had with my junoirs. That time will nv be forgotten. We had fun..real fun.. tracking forgest, exploring, snorkleing, JCK eatting then shit after that.. the Rock FALL!! I remembered.. omg.. i missed that time. Ya..soo good things nv last soo long.. FND suddenly quit.. i mean..his one of my good friends.. just quit like that after the DAIKO amazing race. The alumni actually came down, those 3 -4 generations before us.. wanted us to show them our standard.. They were NOT impressed.. i wasn;t surpised. They (Alumnis) even though play like shit.. they had the coolness and the basic technics right.. i was soo happy when the 1st President who founded the club.. priased me for my daiko skills and performance.. he said in chinese " Ni de Da Fa wan de Hun how" Means u played very well .. lol.. Of course.. even though i dun like to shout.. after training for like 3 damn years. my daiko skills is uqiue , basics are all stable, stlye and speed brillant...I have to compliment myself.. as i was the only among those NOOBS!!! got praised.. HUmble plz ivan Humble!!! bUT...
Hiaz. suddenly the P disappoint me again.. purposely avoided and excluded me from the Superstar concert TMD.. i feel damn betrayed.. had can u allow the alumni to take up all the performing position? I specifically told him i was free and was able to perform.. i was soo looking forward to it. Then went i sms him.. he tired to avoid me.. saying what exam crap.. dun want to distrub Blah X4... Omg.. what if i nv sms him at all? He will just leave me guess wheather im performing or not.. sick!!!! Some more say i overact.. =_+; You throw ppl asided when u dun need them.. ANyway i saw the Superstar concert... Pathetic.. and i thought u all will go onto the main stage.. i cannot understand this kind of actions.. well .. i knew some how the Presidents and i dun see eye to eye. Oh well.. goodbye then I graduating soon. I feel i have done all i can, my entity of a Daiko performer has come to an end. I will miss the club house, the drums, Fernado, JACK, the wooden sticks , the small drums...etc etc. Its too bad I and the P have left off on a bad note. I dun see that its my fault..then i will not apologise to him. I had it... its time to move on ... i think i will not attend thier concert blah... the daiko team nv celebrate my Bday b4.. and nv wish me seasonal greetings.. not say i want to complain but .. its good to wish those who supported u for 3 damn years.
and lastly.. even though i dun get a goodbye farewell party like most graduating Daiko members do.. i feel the club itself or rather the spirit of the DAIKO club wishes me all the best in life and many thanks. One day if i rich enuff i'll empoly the daiko team come do an opening performance for my chain of business. hehe..
