SYF 2005 - The Aftermath

17/07/05

Time indeed files. As I stare at my table calendar, with a big 'X' on the date of April 13, I realised that it has been 3 months and 4 days since we last marched forward as one united entity.

This was part of what I wrote in my personal blog on 17th April :

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"It's really strange how little pple talk about sucess and good feelings and they go on and on about the negatives. The kids are like this and I think I 'm going to be the same too. I guess it's just the emotional relief and the lethargy of getting started to talk about it again... afterall it's over and do you have the emotional energy to start all again? at this point in time.. I don't think I have it :)

alright... BRONZE... disappointed? u bet. Proud? u bet too. It's strange huh, how these two apparrent contradicting feelings can co-exist together. I MUST say.. they did well, I thought we deserve a silver... I really feel that they enjoyed their playing... the hall was with us... hearts in mouths when he did the fermata, nope? stone mountain fantasy... they got what I mean.. brilliant... til now it still rings in my head.."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That was then. Real busy now, don't even to have time to relish the memories of SYF 2005. I certainly will and want to, after the Ns. The memories and feelings are still fresh in my mind. There are so many learning points that I have taken away with me. One pertinent point - have faith in my band. They can do it, just that they will give you a heart attack before they do so!

How about you, my dear band member? How did you feel when you heard this "Canberra Secondary School, Bronze"? What learning points have you taken away with you from this experience?
