Hi! :)
Yay for today. Band camp was fun! Hip hip hooray to us.
So we started with station games. Haha. Our group cheer was totally random.
"The _______ is over there, (fill in the blank with whatever is to our left)
the _______ is over there, (fill in the blank with whatever is to our right)
But the winners are HERE! (point to ourselves)
Man. Made. Fire!
5, 6, 7, 8
Flintstones, we're the Flintstones
Yabbadooba... (forgot)
We ROCK!
(then selene throws a rock as we say)
Yeah."
Haha. Anyway. Then we had lunch, then direct bonding. I guess I have things to say, just don't want to say them. Not so nice. Especially about my impression about our RB C. Hmm. Sad. Never mind. It was comforting to hear that our directs' experiences weren't all smooth sailing. (No I'm not being sadistic. Though I am rather sadistic. Make it VERY sadistic.)
Then we had section bonding. We stone a lot. Don't know what to talk about. But we were asked what we wanted to achieve through band. Actually I've never really thought about it. And compared to my class blog. I think it's kind of important to know what we want to takeaway from band. So we will work towards something, for sometimes it's sad when you work so hard and you don't know what for, and sometimes it's difficult to work hard when you don't know what you're working for. Maybe one of our batch outings we could talk about this solemn topic. But essential. An important element for success is to know exactly what is this success you are talking of, in other words, your goal.
I think today was very fun. Not a lot of batch bonding, but still fun. I got to interact with the other sections and other levels in RGSSB, and that just makes me love RGSSB all the more!
From what I see, our batch blog is very much active compared to the others. Apparently blogger has this new template designing thing, one of which you could have a picture as a background. Suggestion: Try as best as possible to take a full batch photo somewhere and sometime. So, when and where? Are we allowed to take in band room before Mr Goh comes? Or is that slacking? But if we spend 5 minutes without quarreling or anything that should be fine right? Because it's nicer with our instruments. :)
And if you all want a batch outing in September it's never too early to start planning! Or else less than 1/3 of the batch will come again. Maybe not a barbeque this time? Chalet we need some money. Amazing race? We'll need people to organise. Some music concert? Camp? The more ideas I come up with, the more un-feasible they are. So suggest some. :) Or shall I have another voting thing? Quite a lot of people have voted I think. About half? and a bit more. And it's the same people blogging. People come post! Before our blog becomes dead. Actually I don't know of any blogs that are both alive and useful. I think this blog will be useful mostly in the next few years, to track our personal growth together with our batch.
And what do you'll think of the bonded-ness of the batch? I think there can be quite some improvement. Of course we'll seek improvement in everything, though. Tell me what you'll think!
Jiayou for everything and anything! :)Love,
Jia Min
