  • Prayers

    1. For all J2's to have the discipline to manage studies and band!
    2. For J1 Band Members to get settled down to JC life and work hard as a new band member
    3. For all band members to be blessed with good health as this would be a very hectic year.
    4. Every Band Practice will be productive and filled with fun and laughter, peace and joy.

    One Sound We Make,One Beat We Create

    If my memory does not fail me, this blog was created by Kok Hoe's batch. I have always believed that it is the efforts of many members that results in the survival of this blog.

    Browsing thru this blog,i realised that the entries had stopped with the 2007 batch. N i doubt it will continue with the 2008 batch.

    As i compare the culture of the band 6 yrs ago n now, I discovered we have lost the following:
    1) the passing down piece:Twins
    2) our band table
    3) our blog
    4) our family

    I still remember very vividly how the batch of 2002-2003 cried while they played Twins for their juniors. How this piece was passed down from batches to batches. I dun deny that i have an emotional attachment to this piece.

    The band table. Remember how the "need to balance" come abt for the 2005 batch? Remember the cute Winnie the Pooh drawn by Jojo on the band table? How we succeed in smuggling the band table to Potong Pasir only to be asked to send it back to Malan Road? I believe we all know how much this means to us.

    Our blog. A white elephant?

    Our Family. No longer in existence. I was very disappointed when one current band member told me "what family? Stop lying to yourself."

    Things that i had believed in, things that i hold so dear, are all gone. Sometimes i wonder what is there left for me to hold on to. Often students find me living in the past memories,n i just can't help it. Band,nowadays, is just like being with hi-bye people. They have destroyed the culture but did not create one.

    Whenever i want to justify that i have made the right decision to stay on, the only thing i can turn to is the things given to me by the previous batches.

    My love is still with them, but to them, it is really not worth a thing.
