Calibrate: to determine, check, or rectify the graduation of (any instrument giving quantitative measurements). (Mr lim, correct?? I think I understood your explaination after I found out the meaning of 'calibrate' !)
Understand people?!?!? :)))))
Btw, sec 1s have to PLAY HEY JUDE! IT'S FOR SPEECH DAY TOO!
Seniors, you know you also have to play Samba de loves you and Soran Bushi while waiting for the VIP. (very long time period) That's also when the juniors have to play! Sec 1s want to play for speech day right? Here's your chance! Show everybody that you guys can perform well! :)))
And to those people who dont know what I was talking about during Saturday's fall in. A white shirt which I was saying looks like this! Try asking your parents if they have, then they can lend you first. I think this kind of shirts can buy from UNI QLO.
For male! If you need one , ask your sls to ask their alumni to see if they have. If not, go and buy yourself!!! :)))))
For female!
Marching shoes for males! If you need one pair, ask your sls to ask their alumni to see if they have. If not, ask them to give your shoe size and we will get them for you or you go buy yourself! :)))
Heels can be bought from Bugis! dont buy too high ones! :)))) Remember to buy your proper attire for Speech day! Dont worry, this will be the fixed band uniform for everybody! So you can everytime rewear, reuse and recycle! :)))) The 3 Rs!
Next thursday will be the combined speech day rehersal with the band. So get your attire fast fast before 9 april! :)
your lovely bm

Typical Wednesday
Hi people. As you know, the band room is currently VERY MESSY... So, I decided to clear up my section cupboards first....
Now, the New and Improved Flute cupboard! Neatly organised and so colourful!
Trombone section also tried to clear up, but still a bit messy hor..
Trumpet section very goood!!!
This section ah, embarressing... DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. No wonder all your scores always missing.....
Jingwen Tidying up the saxophone section's scores! Sanzhi must thank her!
:)

sorry saxophones
Sorry saoxphones. Dont be sad okay?? I don't think you see saxophonists in woodwind quintets and brass quintets right? Fortunately there is something called a saxophone enzemble!
Found something catchy for you guys! Dedicated to the whole sexophone section! :) Sanzhi probably will freak out over the soprano sax uh? :P
Percussion enzemble too! :DDDD Sorry, it may sound noisy. But it looks interesting right!??!? :P

hihi
Speech day is on 9 April.
So,
34 days left before Speech day
10 more band practices left.
less then 30 days before the 1st rehersal with the UG people.
We have so little time, so much to do. Yet, no matter how many times I say this to you all, you guys don't seem to care. Last friday I managed to get band room opened. I apologise for informing you guys at a really late time. However, since YOUR common tests are over, shouldn't we be concentrating on the upcoming speech day? It was rather disappointing to see that less than 8 seniors turned up last friday to actually do some practicing.
I wanted to tell you guys about it during fall out, however one band teacher was there. If I told you guys in her presence, what do you think she will think about our band? The pathetic bm actually had to begged the teachers to open for the sake of the band and so little people turned up? It was really embarressing when I told the teacher that majority of the band members will definitely turned up to practice.
To think that I trusted in you guys too much. In fact, I had such high hopes on everybody and it was completely destroyed like that. It was something very upset to me. Why did I bother begging and pestering teachers to open the band room for you guys when you all don't even bother to come? Aren't I just wasting my time?
I just hope you guys will put in more effort in preparing for the upcoming Speech day. We really DONT HAVE MUCH TIME.
Anyway, songs that we will be playing for speech day.
1. Epic March. Part 11-18 and NOT BAR 11-18
2. The Longest Day ( Just learn the whole song first )
3. The Liberty Bell ( Same as above )
4. King Cotton ( same as above )
5. General Salute ( go find it in your messy section cupboards )
So, get all these scores from the librarians. Make sure everybody has their own copy!
If you want band room to be open, then show me that you want it open. I am trying ways to pester the teachers to get it open daily.
