Heard about the bad news... this entry is more like a tribute to Mr Jais...

Mr Jais... gone like that... after several years with bdscb... he's now gone... although i'm not in this band long, i know how much love Mr Jais has given us... even though he might shout at you, its all for our own good... kristeena is right... have we really cherished Mr Jais? humans always tend to cherish only when they lost it...

i came to bds... not completely innocent... i've got problems of my own... that's why i transferred to bds... but Mr Jais guided me along... giving me confidence and assurance in everything i do... Mr Jais is more like a father than a conductor... he cares for his children, us...

remember Jeremiah? remember his flaws and bad things? Mr Jais always talked to him nicely... even came to the house to visit him... wanting to know how's he doing... cos Jeremiah hasn't been coming to band practice... which conductor is so fatherly?

during teachers day... peiliang and me did the speech... speech was written by kristeena... a speech for Mr Jais... i know some of you cried... so touched, by what he's done for us... i wanted to cry too, but i was on stage... couldn't do that... hahaha...

yes... and like kristeena said... don't destroy this band... everything that we've put our heart and soul in... i came to love this band because of Mr Jais and the banditz... without the band... i'll be a wandering soul in bds... band added colours to my life... so please work hard, and achieve something good for Mr Jais... and for yourself too...

i maybe always joking in band... but please... when is time to be serious... please be serious.... and i know its not easy leading the band for the majors... so banditz, please listen to them... frankly, i think the band standard has drop too...

ask yourself this... are you guys happy with the standard now? do you think you can achieve silver this time round? for syf... make a difference in bdscb... attend practices... if you really have no heart for band... den just quit lah... band is for really devoted ppl like cheesim, kristeena and all...

so i hope you all will work well with the new conductor... i know its difficult... heard that most of you dislike her... cos she just changes everything in band... just bear with it... always remember, band spirit is important... one band, one sound...

felt like blogging for the band. sigh ~ it's been one year plus since i left the band, and the school. looking at the current state the band is, it really hurts me alot. throughout my four years in band, i've gone through hell with all the members. but i've never seen bdsband at such a low point before, till now.

hope you guys can move on. clarinet section, stop giving stupid excuses to skip band practices. you know who you are. same goes out to the entire band. don't cry over spilt milk. i hope mr jais's departure can wake some sense into you all. i know you guys will hate me for saying all these stuff, but i just don't wanna see the band go down any further. don't make me despise the band i used to love wholeheartedly. i love band, but why is the current members undoing all that ? why can't you guys appreciate the fact that you're in a concert band ? playing an instrument. making music ? tell me how many people get to do such wonderful stuff ?

i grew up with bdscb. it was this band that made me love band and clarinet. i'm not one that can run notes beautifully, but i still love band. and loving band is not just by using words. you need to put it into actions. attend practices, listen to your conductor, instructor, seniors, leaders. you need to practice on your own, and not only during sectionals. i know the band's standard, because i was from this band. and i know that this band can do it. so why you guys destroyed everything ? destroyed the standard that we worked so hard to attain ? don't get upset only when things happen.

think about this. when Mr Jais was around, how many of you actually appreciate him ? how many of you actually attended all the practices ? and how many of you boast about skipping band practices on your blogs ? it's really disappointing. skipping practices is nothing to be proud of. other bands will only look down on bds further.

i hope more of you guys can be like donna. at least i feel she cares, and that's most important.

sorry if i sound harsh. but i just wanna see the band as one again. prove me wrong.

kristeena.
