Hi all!

Dowan this to be such a dead blog (after all the effort that Irvin carefully put in to make batch the blogskin!) so I shall post :)

The past is gone. Everything that had happened, happened. And that's not going to change, even if we regret it and want to go back in time to work so much harder. Nothing's going to change, as much as we hope for the judges to realize that they got the wrong school and the Gold should have been ours.

So we don't have a Gold to flaunt about. Does it matter? Instead of focusing on what we don't have, let's focus on what we have. We have one another, to seek advice when we're down, to have a nice long chat when we're lonely, to play with each other when we are deprived of fun. If we have a Silver but we are content and happy, does it really differ it from a Gold with Honours? If we celebrate as though we are the best band in the world (and i'm not saying that we aren't), does it make any difference between the in name "best band in the world" celebrating?

Band is about the bonding, the memories we share and treasure (such as Japan trip). And this is the continuation of beautiful friendships and close bonding. SYF is over. Band isn't.
