Hey band members!

This is Shuyi,your senior citizen who have been albe to see NV16 shows. hahas
Of course this is not what I wanna say to all of you, but being someone who is leaving, I wanna leave my last word,lolz...sounds like dying. I have not been mentioning what a senior should explain when I was in the band. I didn't want to show that we were controlling all of you but wanted to show you that we are friends instead, but hope that you can listion to me carefully this time round. I had spoke to the group of you that night, but not sure how many people really remember and those who absent won't know. I wanna say again here. I knows that band is a CCA that is hard to cope with, long hours, many practices, and heavy responsibilities. We have gone through yout times, struggling like you guys do. But finally we made it and we are proud of it. In the band when all of us were together, we could not feel the importance of each other. Until we leave the band, we realised that the friends that truly understand us are from the CCA. We have been a hard time together, working for a common goal and face all the problems together. We really feel proud of it because we made it. It is hard, but you face it, and you made it come true, and for those who quite band because they cannot cope with the difficulites, I am sorry to say that they are just losers who won't do well in the future too. Think about it, the social is even harder for you to cope with than our band. We do easily get scolding and punishments from the seniors and teachers, but think about it, are they trying to harm you? definitely not! But when you face the social next time, your boss is not going to give you that chance, you can easily make enermies in your company, those are the people that are harming you, if you cannot even face the problem now, how are you going to survive later? When your seniors scold you, the teachers scold you, you rebel, it does no harm to you. But when you go out to the social, who is going to give you this chance? Do you know why is the piece of education certifivate is so important? why does the employers concerns so much about your education? Because it not only showed that you have done well, but more importantly it showed that you are able to pass through the hard school life and you have the abilities to conquer yourself to do the thing you don't like! Our school life is not only to train your brain but also to train you to be a person who can survive in the social! Are you albe to cope with it? Or are you giving up for your future? Pls, I want to hear all of you to tell me that you are a strong person who can do it, alright? pls tell me yes sir. I really wanna hear that.
alright , exam comming , do well in band and get a good result at the same time!
I wish to see all love you success tatally in the future! :)

Just wanna emphasise on certain things especially on the speech day thinggy...

Whenever you are doing parade thing, please seat STRAIGHT! DO NOT SLOUCH!
TROMBONES & TRUMPETS, please do not block your bells by your stand!!!! I do not wanna repeat myself!
Take note, the condition in the band room is different from outdoor, so you'll have to play a lil bit louder...
Do not talk during the parade procedure! Listen and be aware of the surroundings!
Make sure you knw what song we are gonna play for every command given!
AND LOOK LOOK LOOK AND LOOK AT THE CONDUCTOR!!!!!!

BAND!

Speech Day Rehersal was Ok!

You gotta play louder remember that! This is beacuse the condition in the band room is DIFFERENT from outdoor! So the Trumpets & Trombones, please take note, when you are playing, your sound needs to project! And remeber not to block ur bells by your stands! I don't want to repeat myself again and again! And as for the whole band, whenever you are playing for a parade, please sit STARIGHT, do not slouch and please look smart!

Remember to listen to the bass drum so that you will know when to cut off! AND ALWAYS LOOK AT THE CONDUCTOR!!!!!!

One more thing, do not talk during the parade thinggy ok!

Overall, we did ok so give urself a clap! Hak!=]

And for those who took the wrong uniforms, please remember to return them back to Fatin or Pauline!

SECTION LEADERS, remember to inform all your x-seniors from your own section to return their band uniforms latest by next week! You are responsible for it!

And for the speech day concert, not parade, as you all know we will be playing VENUS and THE VILLAGE PEOPLE HIT MIX, so for those of you who are still not sure on how to play these 2 songs, you jolly well bring back home your instruments and practice real damn hard or else Mr Han is gonna get mad!
