"Band Number 81, CHIJ St Joseph's Convent............SILVER!"
3rd April, 2009. 12.25pm. I'll never forget this moment.

Our hard work pay off! WE DID IT! WE ACHIEVED WHAT WE WANT! SILVER!
the best feeling i had ever felt in my whole life! Many of us cried, tears of joy, we were so happy that we scream and scream and scream and scream the moment they said SILVER! i don' care if some idiot say silver is not good enough or whatsoever shit. cause like what ms ng said, "if you enjoy it, you are a winner"
I did not felt nervous at all on the stage, i was so excited the night before that i couldn't sleep the bight before! we were screaming in the hall, out the hall, on the bus and in the school, we did ourselves proud.

It was worth it, all the scolding we got.
from the incident we had with blue ridge saga, with starting anew with Light Of Dawn, perfecting the clarinet solo and slowly, falling in love with it. And the time when we received our set piece, jaw dropping upon seeing it, and also, fallen in love with it. Scolding we got from BM and DM, and causing mr. tan to nearly not wanting to conduct us.

I was so happy today, i feel like hugging everyone including mr. tan.

















Clarinet Section!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Woke up at 5am today and took cab to school, even before 6, lots of people were in school already, even Mr. Tan.
Did warm up and all and set off at 7+
DM and BM gave us Mars Bar! to boots our energy level!
went up the stage, gave our best and waited for results!
the feeling was so magical! For many sec3, this is their first and last, and sec4 the feeling our getting a silver from a bronze, it must be a very very memorable moment.

we got back to school and was screaming while walking to band room, as this time, we go back PROUD and HAPPY.
Went to Pizza Hut for celebrating!

on a side note, Mr. Noami was one of the judge!
he is a conductor from Japan! he visited us 2years back, when the sec3were sec1. i still remember having the word "DISCIPLINE" on the whiteboard and us sitting up straight, half the chair for many hours just because of him.
