If you don't already know, I'm in HCISO, or Hwa Chong Institution String Orchestra. Something interesting that happened today was that my G-string broke. I'm perfectly serious. While trying to tune my viola, I found out that the fine tuner of the G-string was stuck fast; therefore I decided to use the coarse tuner. Surprise, surprise, the coarse tuner tuned way to coarsely and the string snapped. Hooray. Apparently they do not have any spare G-strings, so I've got to wait until Friday.

UPDATE: I've finally got my G-string!! Thanks to Zhao Hong, my Section Leader, who went in the weekend to get one for me. Thank you!! ;P Now I can play my viola properly.
