guys ah, it's not an april's fool joke ok.
we really got a cop.
which is a certificate of participation.
imagine how are we gonna face the seniors, mr lee, the teachers.
how did you feel when the other bands present were to cry tears of joy, shouts of joy, cheers of joy because they have done their best while you guys were all crying your lungs, hearts, diaphragm *insert organ here*?
embarrassed right?
- E
(really don't know what to say anymore.)
p.s, i didn't cry. i'm sorry, but i didn't cry. it was painful. i felt we deserved at least a bronze. but hey, the standard improved, so we have to improve in order to catch up.

Band #61, Canberra Secondary School.
Certificate of Participation!
COP, in other words, is 'Thank you for participating.'
Ms Mariah and Mrs Lee were absolutely right. We deserve this COP.
COP attitude = COP band.
How do you feel upon hearing the result?
The once COD band.. Marching our way out the stadium proudly, heads held high, crying with joy, performing so proudly to the school late at night, showing that CSSB is best..
Now a COP band.. Hiding our faces from the other schools which were celebrating their victories for attaining their goals, while we moved out the hall in silent mode, crying with disappointment and as soon as we reached band room, quickly took off our band uniforms so as to not let people know we are now a COP band member.
Mr Lee, Mr Kelvin, and teachers.. Are we appreciating them? Have we had a full attendance for practice before? When were we serious about band? And when will we be?
Mr Lee, Mr Kelvin, teachers and seniors may say we already tried our best. But think again.. Was that performance a standard of CSSB? Answer is No.
What for the conductors and teachers lie to us, telling us we are in between a silver and a bronze? What for Mr Lee repeated himself over and over again that Silver is our goal, Bronze.. easy peasy, any time also can..? They made those statements because we are really up to it and they have faith in us.
But today, CSSB had shown those who have 101% of faith and support for us, that we are not but just a COP band.
Are we going to change our COP attitude to a COD attitude and make a comeback in the next 2 years to come? Or are we going to stay happy with COP and be ashamed of ourselves again in the SYF '11 ? If we're aiming for a COP in SYF '11.. Tell the ones who are serious about band to not come and waste their time. Tell them no point working so hard when the rest of the band members heck about it. Tell Mr Lee and the teachers not to sacrifice for us anymore. We shall just meet up on the SYF day itself and play rubbish, like today. Anyway band is about unity. One die, all die. Not one work hard, and all enjoy. No such thing. And, dont ever point fingers saying who caused us to get this result. Blame on the whole band, blame the attitude of us, the band members. And most importantly, do something about it and not let this COP stuck with the band. Take today as a lesson learnt and wake up now.
Work hard people. Mr Lee, Mr Kelvin, teachers and seniors will always be there for us.
Give ourselves a target now and work towards it.
Show everyone CSSB is something. Make those who are proud of us proud. The next time we return from SYF, people will congratulate and not console us not to be sad.
I am sorry for not doing my part as a bm. But I trust and believe our band can do it and we are definitely not of COP standard.
Prove me right. Ok band?

I dont know how am I going to start this but let me be straight to the point. Tomorrow is the day and YES, we can make it! Silver is what we are getting if we put our 100% effort into the play!
Hence, dont give up alright. Tomorrow, you have one chance, one shot and its gonna be your best effort! Whatever happens, tell yourself that you have done your best and you have tried.
Good luck to all and see you tomorrow at the concert hall... I'll be your NUMBER 1 cheerleader when you guys perform. =]
