ATTN: ALL FELLOW BATCHMEMBERSits 12.33 am, first day of the CNY. SO HAPPY CNY!!!!!! unfortunately i wont be able to celebrate enjoy the festivities so I'll use this time to Bloggg. Tuesday was quite a nice day. When i arrived at the band table, was pleasantly surprised to see a gang of j1's at the band table. but did'nt see many of the j2's..hhmmm...so i went up to e band room and realized that the j2's were there. Though many peepz looked quite blur and lost in da morning. The morning rehearsal was really energizing esp during hot latin plus plus the shaping and gimmicks. ( see how a bit of cleaning up and prac makes things so much better ) , not to forget the chinky snake song which was quite funky. we played it a billion times cleaner than CO by the way yeah. Oh yeah, the actual performance too , in my opinion was good too. So that's a good start for our very new J1 + J2 band. and the moving of percussion down to the performance area was real quick too cos everyone contributed in some way or another. yup yup. but apart from that, sch and band is begining to get really really stressful. Had a chat with aloo marcus and enru after SAS POP at macs and we were just talking about how to make the atmosphere less stressful and more happy and stuff. though we were kinda lost and dry for ideas. Basically, this year,for j2's, the schools going at a much faster pace for the lectures and tutorials and some teachers are hounding on some of us and stuff. Not to mention the upcoming blog test, alevs, trip concert, syf yada-yada. even for the j1's, i got feedback from the easterners J1's that band kinda feels more stressful than academics. Naturally it would, considering the sch is quite slack @ first 3 months and band with all kinds of up and coming activities. Mins ago, i was scanning thru all the pics stored in the this blog, and was just reliving all the fun times we shared last year. all the movie outings, shopping, GFC, non-stop eating, sentosa outings, x'mas party, batch chalet, glosz house day thing, queensway things, organising and preparing for events like college day ( our 1st perf ), open house, SAJS, yeah all those stuff. It was so much fun. For this year, lets relieve it. let's make it bigger and better. please. let's make our final stay in this campus and band a fantastically memorable one. let's just try our best to balance our work, and band time really well and set aside abit of time to play and bond. That'll be great. furthermore, We've got the J1's now. And The more the MeRrier! ok, from this sat onwards ( 12th feb ), we've only 20 days to the concert, SAINTS E FESTIVA! and rmb this concert is led by our batch everyone of us. ok so pls, give your all for this. We'll be having our batch item, we'll be singing the college hymn while the j1's play the hymn. and yeah band sings better than choir any day! Nick is in charge of getting the score from sas. then we have our funky stage band ensem ( fly me to the moon ) which was written by deon and reagan. and wanna get some j1's to dance to it and hui min's choreographing it... we're making a Saints E festiva banner too. percussion too has been preparing for their ensem We're gonna rush thru this things in the next couple of dayz... oh yeah, and our upcoming event by our Batch, this saturday at orchard. our first ever real public performance. Go full force publicize, call your frenz, u're uncles and aunties, cats and dogs, sistas and brudders, alumni's wadever. we surely would want ppl to cheer for us right... not like the super sian quiet audience we got for the cny performance @ school.. ok tat's all i'm say for now ... but keep this in mind, it's our last year ( make it memorable, fun , unstressful, shiok, gerek! ) ok!? ok ciaoz and happy indulging in bak kwa, assorted nuts, raisins and red packets...
