Today’s passing down. Yes, and Kay Yun’s BM, tabby’s DM. Jiayou! I believe in you’all, that you can lead the band well :)Ah. Mixed feelings don’t feel good. Part of me wants to be happy because new people are leading us, and we will all work together as a band for SYF, and that the comm. this year did a great job. But part of me can’t help but feel sad and lonely as the sec fours are leaving soon. Real soon. It’s, really weird. When you just got to know them, they are going to leave. I think life is just like that, because nothing will be perfect. And people will never be contented about what they already have. I am glad, that at least I knew them and hoped that we will meet somewhere, one day. And that they will still come back to visit us. But the days when we spend time playing beautiful music together, laughing, even crying together, will not come back. Of course, I am quite happy that I cherished them well, and had taken almost everything in greedily. And I will never forget the band days with all of us. When we talked before band starts, running for fall-in-10-seconds, shouting yes ma’am s, setting up instrus, warming up, practices, laugh at ms chong/random jokes, announcements, dismissal, packing up. It may seem all ordinary, but it really takes up a big part in my life, and you will realize how empty you will feel when you suddenly found out, oh there’s no band today, and you don’t know what to do. Since sec one, band was uplifting for me. When I first came to s’pore, life wasn’t easy. really. New environment, new friends, new school, unfamiliar language, and most importantly, lack of support. Since my parents can’t be by me everyday, I have to settle everything myself. At the start of the year, life was miserable as my relationship with my roommates weren’t that close, and arguments were going on. And I was all alone. At that time, I would just start crying when I called my parents. In school, band was the one that made me happy. During lessons, I was stressed, scared to lose out what the teacher had said, and will not catch up with the rest of the classmates. It’s really horrifying, when you were so scared to have to leave the school because you are just too lousy. I totally stunned when I had my first bio lesson. Guess what, I didn’t even know what a cell contains, and of all the terms she said, I only knew photosynthesis. Which was rubbish anyway. Our syllabus was quite different back in m’sia. We only learned very little on biology, but it covered the entire sec one physics syllabus. Chem was okay, because I found out that people didn’t really know about chem. too. Yes, but anyways. So I was busy copying notes, burying myself in books (gave up trying to take notes after term2. I am not the take-notes kind of person, you see, haha.)and frankly, it was no fun. The only time I get to relax myself is during band, when I have my section, my batch to talk to. They really cared for me and talked to me. Although I can’t really play, I enjoyed listening. When I listen to them play, it seemed that they all knew each other in the music. When I played with them I felt that I belonged to it. When I hear them shouting in Jericho, I was really touched I got goose bumps. I always do, yeah that’s a little weird. But yes, from the start, I treated band as a home in the school, in Singapore. Yeah, and when the people that was there from the start is going to leave, it feels like someone from your family is leaving. It really feels awful. But since we know they will always come back, it’s not that bad. Must be optimistic and think on the bright side (which proves that posts that are posted at night are not good, irrational tsk.) And get the band going! Not on me but I shall do my part and try my best to cooperate with the new committee. Let the band spirit go on and on forever! Band cheer! And, obviously, I mean it from the bottom of my heart: I love nycb.





I exist where music is at.

nycb is the love! that's all I can say. Thank you. It's a kind of feeling when words would fail to express. The passion is there so strong, nothing can pull us apart.

I must thank ms chong for her support. she really inspired me to work hard. I am so touched when she said 'no matter what is the decision, I will support all of you.' and to think that she doesn't care about the name of the concert, and she thinks and feels that it's appa. It really kept us going. Thank you ms chong (:

And the section! ahh. I feel legless now, at the thought of the section. Oops. yes. Thank you for the lame jokes and the time we spent together, prac-ing and laughing. You guys really lift up my spirits(YOU RAISE ME UP. ohhwoman the lift joke) And the section includes toes fingers baa and gumdrop too! Awhh all of you are the love!

Batchies! thank you for the time together before and after bandpracs! batch circle! haha with all the random lame topics. You people made my day brighter!

And the people that came to support us! Without all of you, there won't be limelight anymore (:

Oh, side note. You know my friend, when she saw us so bonded and happy on stage, she was so touched she cried. Awwh. And all my friends loved hymn <3>

Happy belated birthday tabby! haha must do your (meow!) xie wen nicely! Happy 15! (:

I also don't know what to reply to your tag! :D
right. So I am back! From band fiesta, blocks, and cross country. (and I got back most papers. Feeling quite happy. I studied okay. Oh wells sometimes.)So the coming event would be limelight! oh my itik, that's tomorrow. I am so so so excited. haha esplanade you know. Not everyone can go there, and we are invited by esplanade. Not renting the place.

Limelight wasn't easy. We really sacrificed a lot. After much tears and sleepless nights, we had made a decision. Or that's the school's decision, for it makes the school proud. Anything. Why, we have worked so hard for tomorrow. Because everyone in performing arts longed to perform in esplanade. It was really an honour to be invited to play in there. Since we knew we could not have our annual concert anymore, the whole band worked very very hard for this concert. Including sacrificing every lunch to come for practice, staying back after school on non-cca days, even coming back to school on saturdays. We have decided to work towards our best to prove ourselves a excellent band. These few months' hardwork won't be wasted, I am very sure. We will play our best and enjoy our concert in esplanade.

But I am so afraid I will feel so empty after the concert. The concert kept us busy. After that you'll feel that you lost something. And then it will be passing down.

Let's keep the music going and let everyone feel the nycb spirit! Jiayou bandees! <3 We can do it! Because we are the so bonded as a whole! Eat well(val) and sleep well(val). Be the nice gay!(merry!) tsk poor val.
