9 practices left, and suddenly, all the bad things start to strike. to her, she's brave enuf to hold back her tears. all i can see on her face is worries worries and worries.as for me, as im telling her to be brave, i started crying. tks to the strong tear glands. i dunno why i get so emotional, but yah. talking from experince, the precious 9 days seem so precious, you dunno wat to do with it, so that you can achieve tat medal. everyone put in their best effort. but no one seem to tell them that they are doing a good job. to them, the alumni, the instructors words seem to impact them more than what other ppl say. but the alumni likes to say that they r bad. although they sometimes cant put straight lines into straight lines, but accidentally turned it into nice curves, they still look beautiful. but no one told them. as i watch them do it from above, i realise that if i just shift my attention to smth else, smth amuzing may happen on the field. i recall 2 yrs back, when i was watching at them on the competition day, i felt a miracle happening. how can a group of ppl coming from different schools, different backgrounds come together to do smth that requires not just the mouth, the breathe, the movement, but the courage, the determination, the memory, the friendship to bring them so far to reach a gold? to her, that was a gold band. what she have today may just be a bronze or silver. and to her, there are many consequences to face if they dun get the gold medal. but i told her: its not about what we get ultimately. its about the process. although this may sound cliche, but its true! is a cca all about getting the medal to bring the school glory?! its abt educating the students. and i totally believe that everything in life is fated. whether we get a silver or gold, its fated. everything is fated including the ppl you meet, and the things that will happen in your life. but what you can do, is determine what kind of performance you want them to see. whether you wanna let the legend remain at titans, or as ping yi marching band. this is the 1st yr we proof ourselves, but the last yr you can put up your best show. i know you all can do it, because i see it. if you believe in your members, they will believe in themselves. there's no point telling. because they can feel it too. i stopped there. i didnt know what else to tell her. but before i went to bed, i told her: don't worry because everything is fated. and god will let the members have the courage and strength to finish the show, as well as let the parents allow their children to go for practices, because god will let the parents see the amount of effort that their children put into this competition. and no parent on earth will wanna let their own children's effort for a few mths go down to drain. especially in pingyi. and i know and trust that their effort will be paid off. because i see it in them. =) 9 more practices, and that's it. All The Best! Don't lose your way With each passing day You've come so far Don't throw it away Live believing Dreams are for weaving Wonders are waiting to start Live your story Faith, hope & glory Hold to the truth in your heart If we hold on together I know our dreams will never die Dreams see us through to forever Where clouds roll by For you and I Souls in the wind Must learn how to bend Seek out a star Hold on to the end Valley, mountain There is a fountain Washes our tears all away Words are swaying Someone is praying Please let us come home to stay If we hold on together I know our dreams will never die Dreams see us through to forever Where clouds roll by For you and I When we are out there in the dark We'll dream about the sun In the dark we'll feel the light Warm our hearts, everyone If we hold on together I know our dreams will never die Dreams see us through to forever As high as souls can fly The clouds roll by For you and I ♥ shanjoo
