* This should be below the previous post... =P
On this day, I had my piano exam in the morning. After that, I received an SMS from Sgt. Lim requesting to swap duties for Sgt. Major. I was already running late, so I rushed home, polished up my uniform and headed for YMCA. I arrived about half an hour before band practice was over.
During squad meeting, attendance was not very encouraging, but for Parade, the attendance recorded is:
Present: 97
Excused: 15
Absent: 29
Before that, during squad meeting, only about 40-50 boys were downstairs for squad meeting. There seemed to be a certain lack of urgency to attend uniform inspection (sq. meeting) , or the boys are just afraid of the scorching sun. However, this attitude cannot be tolerated and should not be repeated in the future.
After an opening parade in unusually hot weather conditions, we moved into the hall for singspiration, followed by announcements .Then, we were split up into our separate sessions for Golden Jubilee practice.The band went down to do some marching practice, the juniors had their singing practice, while Cpl. Soo taught the recruits BB Knowledge component for their Target Badge. Then, the basketballers, creative drillers and recruits had their respective practices. Today, there was a bit of time wasted in between sessions partly due to the rain, the lack of urgency mentioned earlier and also partly due to the fact that the boys were not yet used to the new timetable for Golden Jubilee Rehearsals and needed some time to adjust.
After rehearsal was Drill time for seniors and then closing parade at around 5.40 p.m.
