Day of the Rumbling Wednesday, yesterday, was a day of physical strain and dust bunnies. Band started at 2:45PM, with Ma'am Elysia informing the band that we were to be stretching our unexcercised muscles for the day in moving some stuff around in the room and organizing the boxes of files kept on the tables. The piano had to be relocated to the area where the computer was, and the computer had to be placed somewhere else. Or removed, whichever happened to the beautiful contraption. Once moving the piano out of the niche it had settled in for a very long time, we discovered DUST BUNNIES. And a book swathed in thick layers of dust and (?) hairs. And of course, a yellow artificial petal or two from the fake flowers atop the piano. Naturally, they were swept away and the piano was moved by a mass of bandmates all gathered together to do the heavy task of lifting up the piano. There were two long lines trailing from where the piano was rested (not having reached its destination yet) to the spot where it once stood. Whether they were scratches or lines made by the copious amount of dust accumulated on the wheels, I don't really know. Well, d'uh. It's not like I was staring at the lines intently. The rest of the bandmates organized the files and removed the papers inside them. This entire process involved a lot of dust and sneezing. I think I saw a silverfish squished in between two files, but then again it might be some other disgustingly silver-ish insect that met its untimely demise between the two files. Finally, at 3:30PM (or in actuality, 3:55+PM), the band was able to practice since the O'levels had ended at 3:30PM. We practiced the National Anthem for a while, during which Alumni Clarissa Ma'am commended the Trombones, woodwinds and single Cornet player that day on their unison, harmony and sound respectively. She also gave advice on the aspects of some instruments' playing and the band co-operation in general that would really help the band if we do actually listen and follow through the stuff that she pointed out. (Stuff like general discipline, a desire to improve the band to try to play a Gold sound, and the history of band briefly.) Blue Ridge Saga then followed up, and then Band concluded with Mdm Alya telling the band that we had to put in the effort needed to sustain the band and the Band CCA Board achieving 87/100 points (fourth), and three other CCAs which all tied in for first place with 91/100 points. Darn close. And, that's it. During the announcements there was some brief questioning of who was going to be doing Term 4's Notice Board and the Band banner, but it was decided that that was to be decided another day. Band concluded. Post concluded. |

To everyone: I am closing the poll as some in this band just cant understand simple instructions after constant reminders. 2008 poll results:
