Aloha band! I would really like to say: You've made improvements yesterday! Regarding the noise level during assmbling and also combined band. (: The leaders are really glad that yesterday after sectionals, you guys are really cooperative and nobody talked while assembling. It was so quiet that we could hear the fountain downstairs, haha. As long as you guys cooperate with us, everything could be done quickly. We do not have to waste our time, trying to keep everybody quiet or even waste time lecturing all of you about discipline. I am sure all of you don't want the leaders to keep nagging at you too right? So do keep up the good work! Like what Mr Wong had said yesterday: It takes 2 hands to clap. If your friends talk to you, all you have to do is not to reply. It doesn't mean that you are rude, it's just that it's not the right time to talk. All and all, Give yourself a pat on your shoulder for the improvement!
And also, do not forget to pack your scores on this coming monday. You would need to put in 'Majulah Singapura' 'Faith Hope Charity' and 'Romansque' into your files. Everybody should have this 2 scores on the next band practice. And, do take out all the scores that you do not need, like those ancient songs we haven't played for years. And there would be a file check on this coming wednesday (3/2) by the scary and fierce librarians!
Lastly, each and every single one of you should take good care of your section's tuners, I-Recommend and especially your own instrument. Treat it like as if it's a living thing. If you drop it, it would be injured. If you drop it too many times, it'll go to the hospital. If the doctors can't save it, it would die. Why not use this method to ensure that you take good care of them? Although you are not the one who pay for it but it's the school properties. How about your next generation? If you spoil them, what are they gonna use? A tuning fork to tune their instruments? A self-written book of I-recommend copied by themselves? An instrument which has 1000000 scratches and parts missing here and there? Do give it a serious thought as it really matters.
A few reminders: 1) DO YOUR SCORE STUDY AT HOME. :D 2) BRING $1 FOR THE BAND FUND ON NEXT TUESDAY.
