I know most of you are busy with school, band, homework, family matters and band.
So the wonderful me has decided to blog again.
I am not at the liberty to blog but for Jacqueline's sake as well, I have decided to divide some of my precious time to do something about this blog.

If possible, could someone do something about the layout?
No offence because I know the current one is something of a trademark of 1307, largely due to the drawing on the left.
Anyway, if anyone has time, just do some tweaks here and there please.

Hui Yan called me earlier this afternoon about 'lao yu sheng' on the 2nd February.
Should I go or not?
My answer to her was 'tentatively yes'.
Oh well we shall see.

I am bored.

Bye.

Yo this is Yi Ching posting here.
Sorry but I don't have the inclination to label myself as Nai Ma for now.

Yesterday was the SSW maiden concert.
Thanks to those who turned up.
=)

Let's see if I can remember all those from Zwinds who came.
Get this, ZWINDS, not Zhband.

Timothy Yeo, Jia Ying, Li Hua, Fiona.
The whole 2618 brothers gang.
Xin Ni, Elaine, Rachel, Pei Jie, Li Shyuan, Yan Ling.

Okay did I miss out anyone?
Please tag to inform me and I will edit this post.

This was my primary school band, taken in the school cafeteria in the old school campus (the door in the background leads to the computer lab 1). The photo shows the entire cohort who took part in the Singapore Youth Festival 2000 Central Judging for Concert Bands (Primary), when I was Primary 5 then and played French Horn. It's pretty obvious where I am in the photo. To those who are blind, I am in the third row, extreme left. To be direct, I'm standing in front of the girl wearing school uniform and partially blocking her on the LEFT. And there is Mr. Aw, who obviously had a different hairstyle back then.

We played set piece The Crossings and choice piece The Last to Defend by David Shaffer.

Our band then was probably one the smallest ones in the entire competition but we did well for a barely-reached-the-minimum-number-of-members-needed band.

Wonder why I posted this up? I'm just feeling nostalgic and seeing that this year is the SYF again for primary schools, I really hope that Poi Ching School Band can break the Bronze medal curse.

Gambatte!

1307 help me cheer them on!

Cheerios!

=)

hi, tis is my first time blogging so a little bad at it. Anywae, todae's banner making dae, we made a real cool banner and nailed the rest of the banner up too. The temptation to cover the ncc's banner was strong, but in the end, we still hung it at the railings whereby the sec 1's can see during morning assembly. Another was hung at the red part of "wall" above the opening of the canteen. Then the other one is outside our band room. The last one muz wait tomorrow see wat mr chew sae lohx. (I think.) Anywae, we had real fun todae. The gals decorated the new banner while the 7 pathetic guys nailed and hung the previous banners all over the scool. No wonder mr chew sae need more guys nxt yr. Coz 7 guys, so pathetic. I think that's all iw anna sae lah. Like nothing else leh. So, BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now that blogger doesn't hang up on me, it has reverted back to how it was previously, without the timing and date thing below so please don't be gullible and believe whatever time I posted this, thank you very much.

Anyway.
Happy Boxing Day everyone!
26/12/05 already.
It has been exactly one year since the tsunami tragedy.
Let us all have a minute of silence for the victims from that unfortunate disaster.
-1 minute-

okay done.

One more week before you all return to school too.
Sec2 and 3s already, pretty fast, isn't it?
Then next thing you know, you'd be progressing onto Sec3 and 4, where I'll also be starting Year 1 in University.
Time and tide wait for no man, so do cherish your years with your friends, and persuasively, your teachers.
Oh and your family too.
Soon, you'll be devoting most of your time to schoolwork and outdoor chilling, hence neglecting your family at home.
Ironically, I chill at home but not with my family.
Yes you guessed it, I always chill in front of this box I using to blog this now=)

So, what can I say?
Work hard and play hard.
Don't take your studies and work for granted because they're really important, since MOE is making so many changes to the education system.
Better watch out before you fall behind.

Oh yes.
Please try your best to pull in as many Sec1s as you can, whether they have music/band experience or not. But of course don't force them lah~ It'll just kill their interest and dislike band for their next 4/5 years in the school.
If you're not sure of how to 'attract', please ask Jacqueline for advice.
She has 3 years of experience regarding this matter=)
Worst come to worst, ask me, but it's not really recommended because I'm trying to avoid helping out yeah?
Haha just kidding lah.

Probably come on 7th Jan to help out?
Then later that night, I'm flying to Japan.
Then there'll be tryouts for performing arts the coming Thursday.

This is probably the most important way of handling a Sec1.
Never let them feel neglected.
Don't hang out in your cliques in band.
Help out and talk to them as much as possible to make them feel at home.
Joke, laugh and talk POSITIVELY about band.
BUT.
Never, NEVER insult other CCAs.
NEVER.
If the other CCAs dare to do that, report to the Teachers, Band AND those CCAs'.
It's never good to play underhand, just undermining their character to pull in as many recruits as THEY can because they're desperate.
However, if you do hear Sec1s talking bad about band, do try to clarify with them in a nice way.
=)
Nice band members. Nice band seniors. Nice band practice.
Who wouldn't join yeah?

I hope I'm not just making empty talk here.
Do heed seriously of what I just typed above.

I'll update again when I feel like it.
Will be soon as I won't be updating my current blog any longer.
I'll relink my new blog here.
So just go see see lor.
Haha but I also won't be updating that until 1st January 2006.

Till then~
