A.C.S. Military Band

A band that I will never forget..despite losing to nan hwa almost every year,its not the competition that i remember the most..its the friendship and times that we had together that counts..hard times and easy times we went through together..together as one team..as one family.. and this is our logo..

cool isn't it?haha..i know i know..most people think that all band members do is practice practice and practice..which is true..but we do have fun too..for example,our trip to Pangkor island..

see the smiles?yup..that means fun..we went for kayaking too..

not only that..when our neighbouring school(nan hwa) had a food fair,we supported them by going over there and buying their food(despite knowing the risk of getting food poisoning)..haha..joking joking..lets hope they do not read that..

oh yes..we do have a few drum majors who are very playful..

yes..not lying..he was one of our drum majors..as far as i can remember,i dont think that we had a female drum major before..so i dont know what they are called..drum minor?cant be..i heard its drum majorrete..if im not mistaken..haha..this is one more of our drum major..

to be honest,the experience being in the band is like no other..u get to learn how to play an instrument which requires talent..how many people(non band members) out of the blues buy themselves an instrument to play?few..very few..so the skills that we learnt from the band is priceless and i will definately not trade it with anything in the world..besides that,we also get bonded very closely..from form 1 till form 5..we meet 3 times a week for practices on average..5 to 6 times a week when 'desperate'..we have to work together as a team..thats when we get bonded..we are like one big family..

Practices can get a bit tiring..as u can see..but the hard work will soon pay off in the end..those who leave the band after form 5 are usually dark..sunburn is also a common thing..practicing in the rain is also quite common..especially when there is a performance coming up what more during the competition..
