There were a lot of thoughts & feelings that I wanted to say that Wednesday night but I didn't cos' I had to chiong out my PI :( I really don't feel like talking about it anymore cos' ... I'm not in the right mood now y'know what I mean rofl but I shall try to express my thoughts clearly!!
To be honest I was really quite disappointed at first I mean like, Bronze really isn't something that you see often in DHSSB's history. But after calming down and thinking it through, I realize that it really isn't the color of the medal that counts but the effort, friendships and memories that we've all forged in the process that counts. Not giving excuses or anything but given our situation, we really didn't know what to expect.
C'mon man it was only 2 months ago then we decided to join SYF again, (because before that we didn't have French Horns and Mr Ng said it's very difficult to compete without the horns), only 1 month ago that we really started working intensively and we are the smallest band competing of only 32 people. Other bands were all at least thrice our size and we were probably the only incomplete band.
I'm very proud of ourselves, that we decided to go ahead with SYF even though all the odds were against us and of how far we've come!! We improved hell much in just less then 2 months and I'm so proud to say that I'm a part of this happy family! I'm extremely touched by the support Mr Ng, Mr Teo, Miss Soh, Mrs Wong, the alumni and our band juniors gave us, for standing by us throughout and also the band juniors who still look up to us even though we only got a Bronze.
Reading all those posts on DHSSB's Wall on Facebook and all those Notes that bander's wrote really made me tear. I love our Lotus Sutra because it really is very healing! Everytime we play it my heart never fails to swell with joy and emotions. I really hope our next batches of juniors will stay on in the Senior High band to continue our legacy and fighting spirit, to make this racing car of 3 wheels into 4 wheels :-)
军乐队一家人 never meant so much until that day, when I truly felt the meaning behind it! Love DHSSB so so much we really have bonded so closely together!!
And a special dedication to my beloved Clarinets:
I LOVE EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU WITH ALL MY HEART (YES INCLUDING MY JH KIDS) ♥
Natalie, Roy, Ching Woon, Zoe and Kristal are the best part mates I can ever have we're seriously the awesomest section everrr 8) We're such a crazy bunch I really don't know what would have happened if not for them. There were times when I really felt giving up, when I felt so tired that I wanted to just back out. But it was them who encouraged me to stand back up and to persevere on, and it was them who made this SYF process so much less painful I'm so thankful for all of them!!! :-)
