♥ -reality check!-
hello.ok. last night had a long and funny conference about PB. we've got lots to say. haiz. i have been thinking about what happened on friday. i just can't get it off my mind. i guess it'll stay in my mind forever.ahh well. this is from the sec 3s:Hey come on guys.what's this about?Its tiring enough going for AB from three to five times a week, getting scoldings and being yelled in our face. Percussion band practise is a solace to us. Why on earth do you think we're rushing from the music room, to the CCA foyer, and back to the music room every friday? And comig for band on wednesdays when we can? Do you think its easy juggling two CCAs? We come, rushing, for fifteen minutes before band ends, to see you guys and enjot the company, but this is what we get. its disappointing.Sec twos, whats going on?Yeah, its true that maybe you're CLOSER to the sec fours to some extent, being in band for a year and four months, while the sec ones only have that few months of experience in PB. but that doesnt mean that you 'own' the sec fours, you 'own' the credit for planning the farewell party. I dont know whats going on. WE dont know whats going on. You cry and say stuff like "They copy our idea, they whatever whatever." begeezes. Its a frigging CAKE. you want to break the band up over a CAKE? And when the ex seniors ask you what is wrong, you guys dont want to say anything. And yet, after the whole event, you guys say that ya'll cried because the sec fours are leaving. Which one is it? You know, that's the whole damn reason why ms ponni walked out on us, cause she thinks that ya'll crying cause of the sec ones 'copying' your idea.If anyone of you actually OPENED your eyes, you would see how ridiculous this whole thing is. the last day the sec fours are gonna be here, and this is what happens. Other CCAs cry on the seniors' farewell party, but it ends in happiness, people crying because of the loss of their seniors, but happy at the renounced unity of the band. The other CCAs dont cry, just because the sec ones 'stole' their idea.The band isnt all about you. Dont you see that a band isnt just fifty different personalities? when we come together, we change into one person, a team. Everybody in SAC knows percussion band as a band with prestige, discipline, people filled with passion for music and much more. Are we about to become a band where in our teacher in charge walks out? That was embarrasing. You KNOW what ms ponni said. she perfectly potrayed our feelings. "You know this thing is just totally immature and childish. I give up on you all." and she stalks off. That was it. the pinnacle of embarrasment. it shows how 'mature' we, as a band, really are.Is it that the sec threes and fours didnt teach you guys well enough? Its the same philosophy. If you guys act like this, the WHOLE BAND taks the blame for it, cause well, we're a band. yeah i keep repeating it but its true.You're the leaders of the sec ones. you earn they're respect the RIGHT WAY. Respect has never been a big problem in PB right? The thing is, you guys dont know when to respect your seniors, but demand respect from us and sec ones just the same. Respect isnt a one way thing. You gotta earn it. not true? see thats your first mistake. you deny every fault you have, but dont ever think about the truth.Seriously, the sec fours dont frigging care about the cake and that. sure, the shirt is awesome, the food is great, the cakes were nice. the whole party was well planned with obvious intention to give a great farewell. But you think its what the sec fours really care about? Nope. they dont care what present was from who, the cost of your extravagent gestures. what they really care about it the band unity, and they want to be reassured that they leave with the band in good hands. they want to see that even us they leave for academic studies, the band continues to flourish and go on fine without them. that's what they care about.When they see it like this, you think they want to come back?What was supposed to be a great show of unity and a great farewell degenrated to this.You know, the only thing you can do for yourselves right now is to just REFLECT. Not lash out uncontrollably and say we're BIAS against you and that we HATE you. but just think about what ya'll have done and how immature this has been, INSTEAD of accusing the whole world and hating everything that comes with it.Is this what band has become?That's all that needs to be said, really.-From Sec threesok its kinda long. heh. yeah. but i guess its true. we're not saying we are angels or what. but i guess u just have to know whens the right time to do what. yeah. don't take it as a scolding k. although the 'letter' might be harsh. just think it through ya? i know you might and would hate us for life or something. but we just gotta say it out. This is what we really feel.my day was fine. went out after church until now. having a headache. uh so irritating. yup. so tht was my day.Labels: REFLECT PPL.
