Today was my first Daiko lesson in school. I had to get up at bout 845 am this morning to get ready to go to school. I waited the bus for like 20 goddanm minutes till finally one comes by. Felt sorry that Ridhwan had to wait for me like half an hour..sorry dude.. He told me it have not even started yet so we chill and took our time before entering into the premises. There are other CCAs there like the school band which i have to recollection of them ever existed there. We had to take off our shoe before entering the place for clealiness sake. For those who does'nt know whats Daiko, its a japanese drum where you somtimes see on lion dance performance. It might look similar but both the Daiko and the lion dance drum sounds a bit different..I think..haha..

The first song we practise titled "Ren Shu". I have no idea what it means. There was a lot of banging and hitting the side of the drum. It was quite difficult at first cause its been a long time since i last seen a score sheet in front of me but I finally got the hang of it. My right arm is ok when it says to hit with your right hand. But when it comes to my left hand, it was a bit difficult. It was only a 1 hr sessionfor starters. I guess i'll be going more session in the future..

I hope..
