Is band life that cold? How many true friends do I have? In band I don't think there are many that can be considered as true friends. Mostly the friends I have now can only be classified as aqcuaintances. True friends are indeed hard to find.
Having to handle the responsibilities and stress of being a leader is not that easy. Now I finally understand the amount of pressure the previous BLs and SLs had to go through.
You represent... angst.
You represent... angst.
You have an extremely cynical outlook on just about
everything. It's okay to sulk and be
depressed, but life is short, and you only get
one. It's only what you make it, and only you
can make it improve.


What feeling do you represent?

Yeah I'm a slacker right? I don't do anything for the section needless to say the band. And everything I have done so far is negligable? Ok, if thats the case, why don't you people try to take the initiative to do something?

Well, it seems my own personal blog has becomed into a blog for band politics. Haiz. What can I say?
I guess my workload will be increasing soon as *some* people have started to hate band so much. If you hate band so much, why not just quit band? Quit complaining. If you have so much energy why don't you use it to change the band instead of whining like a loser. If all you can do is whine, I seriously look down on you.
Whats the use of crying over spilt milk? We have to make do with what we have now. If we are going to carry on dreaming about the past, we will never get far in life. Look ahead to the future. Think about the things we can do. The changes we can make. The improvements that will happen. Everything that will happen in the future is decided by the actions that we take now.
Splitting the band into performing band and training band will not help Xinfony V much. The performing band members will have to play for the whole concert in both performing band and training band parts. Do you expect half the band to play with a tired embouchure? Their playing will get sloppy and will eventually drag down the whole band.
An alternative to this is to set up an alumni band, which will play on their own or with some of the present members, to perform some pieces. With the alumni band, training band and the ensembles, Xinfony V can be covered easily.
The alumni band will play a few pieces, which will take up about 30mins, the ensembles will occupy another 20 mins, 15 mins interval, then the training band will have a much shorter performance.
