YO band members!
ive already added in 'Celebrate' under the music list
so, feel free to do your e-learning! :D

and, i know most of you guys think that the song is too.....H_ _ _D
but, if all of us work hard together and concentrate during band,
i bet we can conquer this song!
you just have to take it easy and face the music :D

and, let me remind the sec ones :
in just another month you will be a senior already
and, in fact, you guys are already in the main band!
oh, and another thing, if you work harder, you can even join and participate in SYF!
so, cant you see how the time flies so fast?
next year, you guys will be teaching all the little kiddies whom you were once in their shoes ;D
so, why dont you try to act and play senior-like from now on ohkay?
i guarantee you will be better than your seniors if you work very hard.

And band, from now onwards, we have to start practising to get the first GOLD in damai windz history ohkay!!

omairah :D
damai windz ROCKS!/STONES!/PEBBLES!

hello band
i'll try to make a short post
like what roxane says.you're a good band.
so why not make use of your potential.
& help each other when needed help.?
a little initiative can really change everything.
even those people who helped out in the farewell night.
we're really grateful and thankful to you..really.
since you all made the first step .you should continue it..
& secondly..
KEEP QUIET when Mr wong/leaders are talking.
you wouldn't want people to interupt you when you're talking.
because .it's rude..
& when you're in the music room

1) your notebook must be always with you
2)take down notes (mistakes to be cleared)
3) always be attentive
4) DON'TALWAYS TALK.

these are the simple things you gotta follow.
& it's not hard if everyone keep quiet.
so band, we're standing as one , not a part
you all gotta understand this ....

lastly. please take good care of your Health!
don't play your psp, computer games all those nonsense.
as some of you all are getting ill.
drink more water and sleep early.okay
:)

ok here are all the section photos taken during all your section outings...
band, from now onwards, i hope that all of you always rmb what i always say. When you come for band, you are to be at your fullest potential. It doesn't mean that you are the best player, and you stop working hard there. Always ask for more from yourself. Nothing is impossible. At the end of the day, imagine when you graduated from Damai, what would you like to look back and think about your past in the band? Just a place where you go just for CCA points? or something that you have put in alot of effort and thus your highly skilled area which is very meaningful to you? Just by ensuring you play better each time in every practice is good enough.
Every single one of you is very impt. A small effort from all of you would make a huge difference. For the seniors, as we are the ones leading the band to SYF next year, i hope all of you would realise your importance of your own actions. It does not matter whether you are in the committee or not a simple effort of being in correct attire, or coming punctually for band, not knocking your instruments would display a good example to the Sec.1s.
A good band is one that is discipline we need to work on this area.
Also, i noticed that not all seniors and juniors in each section are close to one another. This is one area which definitely need to be improved on. A simple gesture of like: HEY! ___ junior's name. hello! with a big big big smile, would definitely make a HUGE difference and brighten up their day. If you are a sec.1, you would definitely be happy when you are showered with love,care and concern from your seniors! ok... and for the juniors about a month more and you are seniors already:) no pain no gain i know that you have alot more potential than what you are displaying now........ work hard!... jia you!....
Lets work hard together ppl and not let our sec.4s and other ex- seniors down!!!!
