I dint juz went to Melaka for tat children camp...(oh ya...tat place was incredible...El Sanctuary...)
Most of my holidayz weren't sleeping at home...
In fact,
I've spent more nitez outside than at home...
Geezz...

After the camp...
Was another camp...
Skul band training...
But b4 tat...
On 7th June...
I went to a concert with my band...
KLCC...MPYO...
Malaysia Philharmonic Young Orchestra...
Gotta wear very formal oso...if not won't let u in...phew...
They were great...real cool...
Bcuz they can be in an orchestra...AT THIS AGE...
Most of them are college students i guess...
But there were a bunch of high skul students oso....
Their concert inspired a few of me frenz...
They suppose wanna quit the band...
But after tat concert...
One came n told me tat if his skills dint reach tat lvl...he wont leave the band...
*applause*

The day following...
Is the start of the training camp...
Hell's training...

From morning...
Practicing...
To nite...
My teeth have gone outta shape as well...
But...
It was worth it...
Most of us found back the spirit tat we were suppose to have...
I have a real gud feeling tat our future won't dim...

We watched a real cool movie...called...Drumline...
Its abt a outdoor marching band...
Marching bands are REAL diciplined...organized...professional...
The movie is abt a drummer who plays the snare drum who had juz went to university...
He is real talented...but self centered...
The storyline is how he changed himself...n eventually change his band director...n finally make history...
There was one special line...All of us who watched it still remembers it now...
"ONE BAND, ONE SOUND"
If everyone have this line in their heart...
I am 100% sure tat our band can climb back up to the top...

Our teacher dint give up on us...
Y should we give up on ourselves...???
During this camp...
Teacher kept on saying motivating things...
He mentioned one little yet important thing tat we have neglected for the last few years...
"Treat ur bandmates with honesty(dunno how to translate it...so a bit weird)...N dun treat ur bandmates' comment on ur skill like they r attking u...Playing music is playing music...Dun bring ur personal affairs to the band..."
These problems...r real problems in the band...
Most of us dun comment other ppl...If we did...we do it at their backs...
Those who r gossip behind their backs don't noe wad they r wrong at...
So...
We ended up talking abt ppl's bad behind their back...
Both sides ended up with bad relationship...
N no one...has been improving...
One band...One sound...
Our bond should be the greatest...
We stand strong holding hands...
In only one circle...not 2 or 3...
We stand together side by side...
We play together day by day...
We practice together notes by notes...
Tatz wad we r suppose to do...

Teacher always say tat our band is real lazy...or else...real quiet...
Wad we were suppose to do...we dint do...
Was we were suppose to NOT do...we do best...=.=
We r a big band...
Big in both money n people...
But not yet big in name....n time...



I guess tat sums up my holiday...
The last few of my holiday...I stayed at home...Thinking...
The seniors of the band...
The juniors of the band...
I am between senior n junior...
Ready to say goodbye to senior frenz...
Ready to lead my junior frenz...
Frenz...
I ought to be making frenz...
Make our bond stronger...
Make our friendship forever...
Tat way...things would be smooth...
Tat way...One band One sound won't be a problem...
Tat way...Dreams n hopes of our senior won't die...
The seniors told me tat this camp...is the last present from them...
The last present is a real gud year of new juniors...
Making our band's future brighter...

I wanna say a BIG...Thank you....to them...
They have reli put some effort in it...
They don't want to leave us in jeopardy...danger...rite on the edge of a cliff...

A senior told me tat...
After this year...
We would be the ldrs of the band...
It is up to us to make the band btr...
To be a family...

J3 players...
Next year...
We will be S1 players...
Senior...is a big word to carry...
We have a responsibility to carry out...One band One Sound...



One band...One Sound...
We r all in this together...
