I'm sure many of you heard what Mr Goh said today. Timotheus, Janis, Sin Pei and me are not very pleased as well. This may not sound nice, but i still have to say it anyway.

Firstly, BAND PRACTICE. As Mr Goh said "There is so many parts that needs to be worked on, and I don't know where to start." What does this say. This means that we need to double our concentration and work harder to sustain our silver or get gold. Mr Goh has been so nice to us already. I think its only fair if we practice hard to show our gratitude to him. I think we are disappointing him when we talk loudly during practice while he is helping another section, or when we don't take sectionals seriously. Don't you think we are letting him down? Shouldn't we put in as much effort as he is putting in to help us? Do you think its easy to conduct a band whose not focusing?

Secondly, ATTENDANCE AND LATE COMING. How do you think we feel when we look at the attendance book and see the numerous amount of zeros? Our band is small, everyone is important. Making the small band smaller is not going to help. PLEASE COME FOR PRACTICE ON TIME. Traffic jams and slow buses are not good reasons for being late. If that is the case, WAKE UP EARLIER! If we can do it, YOU CAN TOO! So, from now on, i expect more 1's to replace 0's in the book. Anyone with lame excuses must watch out.OVERSLEEPING WILL NOT BE TOLERATED.

Thirdly, DRILLS. Imagine jelly doing drills. That is what you all look like. Can you imagine the adjudicators' faces when they see our video? Like Mr Goh said,"Its OUR face on the video, not his." So I suggest that we do our drills more professionally. That way, we can CUT DOWN on drills and GO HOME EARLIER. Have you heard the sound you make when you guys march? During hentak, you all sound like fireworks. During darikiri, you guys sound like you are sweeping the floor. Are you all that tired that you cant lift your feet 1cm of the floor? And your 90-45 is more like 45-10. FOR THE LAST TIME, KIRI IS LEFT, KANAN IS RIGHT! Show us you understand that with 'A sense of urgency'.

Lastly, THE BLACK FACE! Please please stop flashing us the black face. I know that doing drills is not the happiest thing in the world, but please cooperate with us. Also, you must think that "You (top 4) are not the ones doing drills, or downing. You dont know how we feel. All you guys do is talk talk talk talk talk." This is not true. We have done drills before. We know how you all feel. But how do you think we feel when you give us the 'face'. Its not making our jobs any easier. For example, we organize practice for YOUR benefit. You think we do this for fun to torture you. HELLO? WE'RE STAYING BACK TOO?! Plus, you guys stay for ONE day. We stay for more than THREE CONSECUTIVE DAYS. Plus most of the time we drill together WITH you, standing in the hot sun WITH you, not standing under an umbrella with a fan and an ice cream. Do you know how tiring shouting under the sun is as well?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, COOPERATE WITH US. IF YOU THINK WE ARE UNREASONABLE, GIVE US CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK, NOT COMPLAINTS OR BLACK FACES.

If you all have anyway to help you all focus more, contribute to the tagboard and let us know. Anyway, KEL LEE here, dont assume other people wrote it and hate them. HAPPY HOLIDAYS :D

P.S. We are not discriminating against anyone, this is just a general picture :)
