i wouldnt be me
if i was never from Jurongville Concert Band.
in short, JVCB is the best thing that ever happened to me.


i am still torn.
i should have climbed
out of this pool of disappointment by now.
but i cant seem to.


i am clueless on how i should react
when the school announces our medal.
it is a victory to them, but a defeat to us.
i feel strong and proud when i think of the band
and all that we've been through,
all that we've learnt along the way.


but all that diminishes to this belittling feeling,
which i know will strike back when our results are announced.
i will smile at the thought of
the band's unity and attainment,
but it will soon falter because in the end,
we didn't get what we, and everybody else,
believed we could have gotten;
what we should have gotten, but didnt.


and the disparaging thing is that
theres absolutely nothing we can do about it.
3rd April was the most triumphant,
yet heartbreaking day of my life.





Speech Day 2008 (Taxi Tijuana), CCA Fairs (always the center of attention!), NCO Camp @ Deyi, SYF Central Judging 2007, Ampio Musica I, Hong Kong Disneyland, The Chia(s), The 3rd April feud in school, SYF Central Judging 2009 and still countless more.


i suppose beautiful things have to come to an end eventually.
like sky-writing. (=




i'll be looking forward to Ampio Musica II.
i am a band geek,
and always will be.
