OUR blogfirst of all, happy new year bandies!!! yeah, so tml's the start of another brand new year. new kids, new bandies. j2s either working, NS-ing or slacking. j1s no longer j1s-u guys are now the j2s, the seniors, the ones guiding the new bandies, passing on our traditions, our culture, our ways. which brings me to my point. this blog. it saddens me to see that so far, none of the j1s have really used this blog. it has been around for around 3 years now, something started by our ex-seniors, yes, who are ppl many in the band may not have known though. but they started something which they hoped to be passed down, from batch to batch. someone has to start it, and they did, and now, after just 3 batches, its stagnant. and i mean really stagnant. look at the intervals between the entries. if u have the time, look back at past entries. even if u're not a member, u can still feel the spirit of the band from them. i know its too powerful a word, but now, the blog's fading away.. the one time the blog actually really faded, when someone deleted it, everybody, from non sajccb bandies to members to alumni were suddenly concerned abt it, asking each other what exactly happened, who did it, can it be retrieved back. and not wanting to lose a part of our band history, a few j2s investigated and tried to retrieve it, and eventually succeeded. and here u are reading it, the sajc band blog. a record of sajc band life, the sweat, blood, and sweetness of 3 batches. and while alumni of cos are more than welcome to write entries, they cant be the ones keeping the blog going.. of cos, not expecting ppl to start writing essays here from now on, but some things, serious or even nonsensical here and there would be nice. im sure no one needs a lesson on how to blog right.. so yup, soon-to-be j2s. keep this blog going, alright guys? -jj at 9:14 PM 0 comments
