Weilin's reflection: Pride, Discipline and Honour (Sunday, November 21, 2010 / 7:15 PM)
Hey guys, here's another post for the POP yesterday evening.
First off, it was a fantastic memory for me, and it was everything i've worked for for the past 4 years.
Though the parade was pretty much a disaster, i believe we've all gained something from it. I'm not here to pick on the mistakes we made, but rather to let you all remember what you've learnt from it. POP is to showcase what you've learnt, as sec 1s and 2s in your drills, as well as to train your discipline and togetherness. It wasn't as good as the batches before, but i believe that you all have learnt at least something, and put it to good use in the following years to come.
I was filled with pride when i saw everyone march off and weixiang throwing the mace and catching it. My journey is officially over, and i hope that at least i've taught you all a little something. Recollection band was something, where graduating members will play from important events. But i did feel the need to get some important sec 3s to play along, as they've played an important part to fill up the gaps which missing members left. And i'm glad we still had fun, reminiscing about the JBF, Limelight 2008, AYG, and finally Tasmania.
You all have no idea how much you all have impacted my life, and how much i've gained from you all. The pride the whole batch felt when we threw the blazers is truly a reflection of how much we've worked through the 4 years.
I hope that the batches after mine will continue to feel the same pride, after putting in the same, or even more, effort into band. Enjoy band, and stay strong you guys. (:
We'll always be rooting for you all.
Love,
Weilin 2010.
