People seldom ask me what is pride,
Cause they already knew the answer.
To me, pride is nothing.
Dun see why people get so crazy over this.
Instead of wasting time on this thing,
I did rather go practice my trombone playing, even though i used a different and harder style of tonguing, its difficult to change now.
With syf now, after syf i will have to slowly adapt to the better and easier style.
Reading people's blogs, i realised there are many things happening around me.
Good things, bad things.
Now, pride is one thing, fate is another.
But to me both are equally nothing.
Well, maybe fate has a higher rank.
It could be fate that i was chosen into band, even though it was my second choice.
It could be fate that i only talked more to the band during my leader days.
It could be fate that Elisa actually stayed on the section. (She will make a great leader, she just need to learn)
It could be fate that I exploded and abandoned my job for a long time. (took me a while to get back to my senses)
Everything could be fate, even the silver for syf.
But
I think all these consequences were caused by the actions we do everyday.
Even if i werent chosen into band, i would quit ncc air and transfer into it anyway.
Talking more to the band? i made a right choice in communicating more, this way we have a stronger bond.
Elisa will be a brilliant person, it will take a while before she learns everything, i am willing to take a risk that she will be able to command respect in the band.
I cracked, ok? but i came back to my senses, teachers and seniors and juniors actually are there, im the bad egg that time. Self consious all that. But i came back.
These are all fate?
Dun make me laugh.
To make choices means u had chosen ur fate.
Good or bad choices determine your future.
I decide my. Lets hope the others will. XD

Yesterday i stayed overnight in school in order to watch philwinds practice XD
I tell you all...
It was really stunning, any ordinary band member would have their jaws dropping.
The philwinds are a really brilliant bunch of people.
This was the first time they had seen the piece and they actually side readed it... (dun noe how spell)
Amazing!
Thats wat i want to become. but i nid to concentrate on my o lvls this yr.
However, it doesnt mean i can slacken in my practice XD
We, the sec 4s had a really long talk at night.
We talked about some of the main probs of the band now.
This was my opinion.
In order to do more work, we need to waste less time.
During free time we should be studying scores, looking at articulations, tempos and the notes rather than talking unnecessary.
The same goes for drills, like i had said to the sec 2s today, if you are able to do things right once, why not do it right everytime or at least most of the time.
This allows the teachers, the sec 4s and even alumnis who come back to be able to teach and give our knowledge to our juniors.
This is my opinion.
In order to do it, the sec 4s had finally worked together XD
last yr we still had problems now and then, like one sec 4 would feel left out or another would not bother.
This time, we really have the same mindset at last.
We will work hard for the last few months we have...
