hmm.it feels weird to see the sec 3s taking charge. it seems like just yesterday when we were understudies (yes,i noe it sounds cliche) .n now i feel what's really to be out of the band. technically we've not stepped down, but we dun play with the band anymore. n speaking of that, i still haven't quite made up my mind abt whether or not to join NBC .mabye i will, maybe i won't , i just dun want to rush like mad for prelims like what i did for MYEs. but den again, i feel like i didn't finish band nicely, without a bang, n i think NBC would really leave great memories for me.
band has become such a routine in my life that it feels weird without going for band , n it feels weird to really see myself no longer being in charge.
i rmb the first day of band when i got so scared of the seniors n Sir,
I rmr how i was one of the last without an instrument and comtemplating between euphonium or percussion but hannah t chose euphonium so that i could take percussion instead [thanks hannah:)],
I rmb how i got the shock of my life when i realised i've got a senior called tiffany wong too,
I rmb how the seniors used to scold us for crossing our legs and talking while Sir was teaching,
I rmb the drills sessions that the sec 4s seniors gave us n how scarily they scolded us,
I rmb the day yong en transferred me n beatrice to 2nd trumpet n made me sit between Zhi Jie and Suzanne,
I rmb my first performance, the sec 1 induction,
I rmb when we went Johore for the exchange programme, how long we waited for the GOH n how hot it was, n also the shopping trip with my dear seniors, Zhi jie, Becky, Thilanga, Peirong and of course queenie the qi ni.haha,
I rmb how suzanne used to freak me out with her 'ni ai wo mah'
I rmb during the first NBC, my first competition that i took part in, how afraid i felt, how i rmb ms sia asking me to smile n walk straight into VCH,
I rmb the times i spent chatting with peirong during sectionals abt idol dramas,
I rmb the SYF period when Ms sia insisted we adjust the aircon to 16 degrees ,n i was sitting right under it so i got really numb n cold n always wrapped in the super huge cedar jacket,
I rmb how united the band was during that period n we were almost too happy to come for extra practices,
I rmb SYF when i was so shocked to see the band moving so lively during Yiddish dances and that Ms Sia smiled at us after our performance,
I rmb 50th anniversary when we donned our super short skirts and suspenders, and danced to the rock n roll,
I rmb how we understudies worked hard together and slept at 2 plus just to finish proposals and reflections,
I rmb how late Yu xin, Rena and png mole stayed at my house just to finish the proposal,
i rmb speech day o8 when it was the sec 4s last performance.
the list looks long, but the ending isn't great.
