the audience sees and hears the band as a whole, not individual.




This is us, for 2011 SYF. 2011 SYF is definitely not an easy journey, but I'm so proud to say, we have persevered till the end. =) Like what Sir Badrul has said today, " Its like learning how to ride a bike. We'll fall, but we have to learn how to get up. "


I'm so glad to see individual of you has grown so much, how much effort you guys had put in, how this SYF helped to pull us together.


2011 SYF has been a part of my memories of friendship. =) Thank you for the bittersweet memories. Will miss you guys a lot!




We've won the battle, as a family! =)
Stand firm together for every obstacles!



Thank you for playing a part in this journey. Keep in mind, band is never a one man's effort. Love you all! =)



Jiahui.

Remember this photo? The tears of joy and hard work behind it? The one which we took on 6th April 2009. On the very same date of 2011, we'll be having our SYF. What kind of photo would we be taking on 6th April 2011? It all lies on us.



5 days later, we'll be in this stage... I'm sure every one of you would want to be part of this battle. Overcome the temptation this weekends, don't let the devil win over you. Endure for this weekends. Take good care of yourself!

Your presence for the last 2 prac is very important! Drink more water, eat more fruits. Don't fall ill at this time!


Hang in there for one more week!!! Do remember what sirs have said. Do not let the effort go down to the drain.


IMPORTANT


  • Be consistent!

  • F.O.C.U.S

  • Listen!
Sir Badrul has been emphasizing on these every prac. We've got only 15 minutes of fame and it'll determine our 2 years of glory. Put in your 101%!


Remember, we are ONE BAND, ONE SOUND, ONE FAMILY! We need to think as one, work as one! Only with unity, we can win this battle! =)


Let our 2011 SYF be a part of our memories of friendship.


6 more hours!!!
