Busy busy busy

Who says life as a Band musician is easy?

It's parade after parade... and it seems never-ending.

First, there's the endless rehearsals and Corp of Drums for SAF Day Parade on the 1st of July... then there's the Change of Command Parade at Tengah Airbase.. and then, there's Wasbe Outreach Concert and Interaction with a Hongkong Band.. and all of a sudden, we're deployed to a FULL Military Funeral for a Navy Specialist who passed away during a special Ops Training (complete with slow march up the crematorium)... Phew~ Looks like I can store enough off to last me like.. 7 days???

Not that I'm complaining.. Well, you win some, you loose some. Just hope to pull through all these parades and then enjoy the fruits of our labour.. our offs!!




Well, read from others' blog about their recollections of HCCO.. and of Tian Lai Hui Yin.. so, just outta fun and curiosity, I have a little survey here for whoever that reads this:

Who still owns some form of Tian Lai Hui Yin memorabilia?? Or has it found it's way to the trash bin? (Leave a tag on my tagboard) << Lousy way to increase tag traffic.

Hmm... came across this entry that was on my fren's blog, which he ripped from another of his friend's blog... so now I've officially ripped it off again.. wow.. so much for beign H.I.P. (Honour Intellectual Property? Eat my shoe.) =P


As people grow older, I think it is getting harder and harder to maintain friendships. People get caught up in work, lovelife etc. In school, at least there is still some source of common topic. Working life... maybe not. Everyone's path diverge. Suddenly you feel there is less in common and meeting up becomes a chore. There are some friends I treasure a lot but it's tiring when you always have to take the initiative to ask "how are you doing", "shall we meet up", etc. We used to be so close and that's why I want to maintain the friendship cos I feel it's a pity to let it go to waste. But maybe when people drift apart, then it's time to let go. Just treasure the memories. I have this box of presents, letters, soft toys from my friends since secondary school. I used to like taking them out to read through them but nowadays I don't bother. It's sad when you realise how some friendships have just gone to waste. But okay, maybe gain some, lose some. I also got to know a lot of new friends and they were the ones who helped me out a lot in many ways. Maybe as one grows, your thinking change so you need different kind of friends who can click with you. And if you have to constantly meet up to maintain the friendship, then maybe the friendship was never that strong in the first place. For instance, I've known H for more than 5 years and I only meet up with H like two or three times a year but there is never any awkwardness when we meet and we find it very easy to confide in each other. I think that's what true friendship should be like. Always being there for you when you need them.


Makes hell lot of sense rite?

Now sleep on it.
