(Or you can go here for the photos. The thingy above just looked cool so I added it :D)
Oh and one more thing - I cropped some and resized most of them and I think they should still be big/ high quality enough, but if anyone wants the super huge originals um just ask me haha.

Ahh how could I have missed this?! It was posted on 16th October 2008! Quality not fantastic, but still-!
The guy managed to tape down Titanic too, but during Jeremy's solo, he zooms in on Aaron (bari sax) instead! Such injustice! D: (The second time he zooms in you can see Jeremy swaying at the bottom right hand corner.)
Disclaimer: I am simply amazed at the talent, fullstop.
It's not exactly rgssb...*squirms in embarrassment at the sight of Sam Seah's post* But what the hey; at least it's more relevant compared to chubby cheeks right? :b (Eh, but not every single post has to be about band, yes? If not the already-decreasing rate of posts per month will decrease even more...)
Greet everyday with a smile! (Wow, that was random.) Happy Friendship Week and Happy (early) Valentine's Day!
Tons of love! (:

WAYS TO ANNOY PEOPLE IN THE ELEVATOR:
When there's only one other person in the elvator, tap them on the shoulder and then pretend it wasn't you.
Push the buttons and pretend they give you a shock. Smile, and go back for more.
Ask if you can push the button for other people, but push the wrong ones.
Call the Psychic Hotline from your cell phone and ask if they know what floor your on.
Hold the doors open and say you're waiting for a friend. After a while, let the doors close, and say, "Hi Greg. How's your day been?"
Drop a pen and wait until someone goes to pick it up, then scream, "That's mine!"
Bring a camera and take pictures of everyone in the elevator.
Move your desk into the elevator and whenever anyone gets on, ask if they have an appointment.
Lay down the Twister mat and ask people if they would like to play.
Leave a box in the corner, and when someone gets on, ask them if they can hear ticking.
Pretend you are a flight attendant and review emergency procedures and exits with the passengers.
Ask, "Did you feel that?"
Stand really close to someone, sniffing them occasionally.
When the doors close, announce to the others, "It's OK, don't panic, they open again!"
Swat at flies that don't exist.
Tell people that you can see their aura.
Call out, "Group Hug!" and then enforce it.
Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and muttering, "Shut up, all of you, just shut up!"
Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside, ask, "Got enough air in there?"
Stand silently and motionless in the corner, facing the wall, without getting off.
Stare at another passenger for a while, then announce in horror, "Your one of THEM!" and back away slowly.
Wear a puppet on your hand and use it to talk to the other passengers.
Listen to the elevator walls with a stethoscope.
Make explosion noises when anyone presses a button.
Stare, grinning at another passenger for a while, then announce, "I have new socks on."
Draw a little square on the floor with chalk and announce to the other passengers, "This is MY personal space!"

anywayyy for batch outing, does anyone want to go bowling??? it goes at 2 dollars a game (if the promotion is still on) and its at raffles town club, so that's just three bus stops from our school. plus there's an arcade nearby too. just wondering if yall would be interested =) and by the way, if yall really want to go, then we'll have to go by the end of november. so perhaps we could have the outing during band break? or after one of the band pracs after inunion.
talking about inunion, its in theoretically 6 days. our LAST inunion. hm everything is starting to end, if you know what i mean.

11:19 PM
Thanks everyone for staying back to clear up the band room tirelessly, both yesterday (until a whopping 7.30pm for some) and today (for those who sacrificed CES). It's heartening that everyone's willing to put in that bit of sacrifice - though I think credit should go out to the sec2s as well.
"Well begun is half done," quoting Mary Poppins (teehee :D)
Now the only thing is to sustain it, so let's not get complacent/conceited. Everyone refer to Eeiyn's latest Some General Reminders (aka nagging) email!
Photo of the amusing scene that left the six or so of us - left in the band room til 7+ yesterday uncovering bits of history (along with unwanted organisms plus nose-tickling tufts) - shrieking.
:D
Btw, we took down the curtain in that background today, and along with it about tenthousand dead insects.
Jiayou everyone with the PTs and SAs, keep your spirits up!
Talia

Just want to say that I'm very proud of everyone today! (: I feel super happy after band today cause I see that our batch is initiating change! :D :D YAY!
We'll do all the stuff that Mr Oura wants us to. :D
The SC finalists are pro too. :D And and...
Hmm..how's the organising of the section areas coming along? Does anybody know? And i was thinking maybe we should have packet drinks for future band camps...Teehehe...Seeing the amount of plastic cups that we threw away today with all the webs and stuff there. :O And ha! This is a crazy idea...But I'm just saying it anyway, maybe we should wash the band carpet somehow? HAHA!! So much saliva. :P
Ok..Maybe it's weird that I'm saying all these and stuff since I'm not of any significant position.
But just to tell you all that I really enjoyed the first band prac that we sort of took over today though we are still missing the sec 4s.
Let's carry on with our enthu-ness. Muahahahahahahaha...... Yay us!
-band reforms
<3 porkypig. (:
8:14 PM
We have come quite a long way since then right? :D.
And in 2 days, we'll be bidding the secfours farewell and we'll be top batch D:
Anyway, jiayou! :D. to all the leaders of '08/'09, whoever you guys may be, and yep, we'll all be there for you, okay! :D.
And jiayou to everyone with the various scary PTs and tests and orals and scary freaky things ><. We can do this, okay! :D

Photo contributions from me. (I apologise that it may be intepreted as somewhat self-centred because they were mostly, whatsit called, camwhores.)
Please do take note of one particular one labelled "EVERYBODY LOOK AT SAMLEE'S FACE" because revenge is occasionally sweet (:
SIBF results - Div1, Silver, 82%, 3rd place
Just wanted to say -
You don't have to let the results define how much value you place on the effort you've put in these few months (though we were admittedly geared more up for Cadenza rather than SIBF). Nor do you have to let it define the standard of the band now, the standard of the band in the future; or even the attitude you bear towards band.
Please don't be too disappointed, everyone. If you don't know how to feel about it - a position I think most of us are in now - you don't have to let others mould that for you, you know. Let's just be contented with what we have and work harder.
To end off on a happier note again, will post just the batch photos (there are more at the url, though!)
