Hey, these are some stuff that you might want to say to juniors who are not happy because of SYF or have questions about the process...

1. I didn't pon anything, I worked hard, so why was there so much scolding at times during fall-in?

Basically, the band is a collection of all it members, not just one single one. Just because you put in 100% doesn't mean that every band member is a saint. As long as you believe that, there is no reason to feel wronged or anything, but a sense of responsibility to your own interests as well as the batch should push you to encourage and motivate the batch even more.

2. We could and should have played more beautiful music/made mistakes during SYF/did not put in enough effort, so why is everyone consoling each other when they were scolding each other previously?

Well, it is true that we could have been much better, but whats the point of blaming each other? Might as well stone all these people now is it? What matters now is that we get over this and start rectifying all these problems we have. Of course we recognize that things should have been better, it not as if we just ignored all that happened.

3. Before that, everyone was talking about how they wanted a GWH and all those stuff but now that we don't have it, everyone seems so okay with it, even going to the extent that they claim to be proud of it. Seems very loser rite?

Well, what are medals? Medals aim to tell us how united and able a band is. However, sometimes medals do not give the full story, as we see here. As we all know, there was poor progress and attendance at the start of SYF training period, but as time passed we learnt as a batch responsibility and diligence, as can be obviuosly seen in the week just before SYF. If we had started this way, no difficulty could hinder us. But we did not. So we understand that, and we are happy because we managed to utilize our potential (albeit a bit late). Of course G or GWH would be nice, but we all know that it isn't the medal that matters. Personally, competitions do not tell us how good a band is, but concerts which show us how well a band performs, which is the essence of a band.

Just my thoughts... to revive a deading blog :(
