Well, guess who is here ?!
no one update then yi ching ask me update... lol
As for what happened thursday , i feel that we are partly at fault too.
PROB:
1] Some went to the lit evening and din tell the SL so that he or she will be able to tell mr chew.
2] If you happen to have SSP or you know it last min pls sms mr chew or tell your SL or ASL .
3]Arrangement of the scores are not in order,not pasted together.Its impossible for mr chew to paste for you rite, he come in for every practice and tell you to paste and arrange but we didnt.
4]When changing of song, is there a need to talk? All you have to do its to put back the score and pull other one out, thats it.
5] Combine practice with sec 1s, i know you guys will tell your sec1s when he or she plays wrong but if you happen to be attentive, do you realise mr chew or mr mas will give us time to explain to the sec 1s. And there is no need to talk.
6] You shld know what to do for every single song and i dun have to say , i know you guys are tired and will be lazy to push but if you want a better song and dun sond so bad you have to do that so that you can bring the band to higher standard.
7]Friday sectonals , people come at 2.3pm and slack when they are having sectionals.
8] Eat before you come band and are to fall in at 2.30pm if you have ssp eat during 1,50 to 2.30 and when ssp finish or it reaches 3.30 jus tell your teacher that you have to go.
SOLUTION :
1] Tell your SL or ASL that on which day you cannot come or will be late so that he or she will be able to tell mr chew so that mr chew will also be able to plan for the practice . so SL and ASL here pls give your nos. to mr chew, if you dun have mr chew no. you get from me or any leaders.PLS state your name and where you are from eg. im so and so from zwinds and will be coming late for band because of...
2]Arrange your scores marches on the left and others on the right , paste your scores and paste form the back not one the front.SL and ASL pls check all your files and arrange it every friday .
3] keep your mouth shut unless you dun understand and have to ask a question and mr chew will give you time to tell your sec1s what to do .
4]pls do what you have to do , you know what i mean.
5]friday its the only day where you can teach your sec1s and interact with them during breaks,every thurs and tues you dun have the time to teach because you are havin a combine practice and you to keep queit during practices.You can bring your husband or wife home [ instr if you dunno.] but pls tell the QM and take good care of them, they are part of you .
If the teacher dun allow you to go after 3.30 give thousand and millon reason to go band and if he or she still dun allow ask for permission to go tell your band leader and pls tell us the teacher name also.
Although there is still many many problems to be listed but we try to slove the most basic and impt one.All of us have to put ourselves into the conductors shoes , imagine you are teaching but your students are talking and dun give a damn about you , how do you feel?Do the leaders have to tell you to keep your noise level down and they have to SHHHHHHHH!!!! every single min , every single preactice , every single hour and every single second??? NO you r suppose to be understanding and co-opreative .
Leaders are members who can express your thoughts or solution to the teacher or the conductors . they are not your maid, they are not suppose to help you to do every single thing . they are there to lead and help to communicate.
Maybe thrusday its the 1st practice that we cannot relay on our sec 4 seniors animore, we have to be independent and strong. We cannot always relay on the seniors to help, try your best and you can do it.
Mr chew finally agree to stay because we manange to gamble with him that after the marchholidays, the band will be a band with good discipline and will respect him.it is because he feel that we talk all the time and dun give a damn abt him standing infront trying hard to bring the band to higher standard.so pls change your attitude and pls be self-disicipline.
like what ms pang says, mr chew is like a bird which flys in and make himself a home and have childrens and we are the children, but one day an animal come and hurt us but mr chew try to protect us in some way or another , we are like his childrens and he try every single way to protect us but we did not put ourselves into his shoe and one day he have no chioce but to leave .He is a good conductor and we want him back so pls understand him .
