Hi all,
Since Wilfred encourages us to post on random topics and non-musical stuff, I decided to address certain random and controversial issues in my first post for the blog.
1. Posting and Tagging Rules
Well, I feel that we should like impose certain rules and regulations when tagging or posting in the blog. For example, there should be no personal attack stuff like “hao meng has a gf” (quoted from wilfred’s post) as these kind of things -_- are totally false and thus should not be allowed in the well-respected viola blog, am I not right? Lol
2. Bonding! (Random lol)
lol here is some information regarding bonding in accordance with wilfred’s latest post and the recent bonding madness in 4I:
What is bonding?
A grp of ppl (usually friends) surround u, take u down, and do certain things. Some serious cases include spraying of deodorant all over body, hiding of clothes and taking videos of the process and upload them to Youtube afterwards.
How to prevent bonding? (quote from chay choong’s blog)
1) Find excuses to run off (eg. Lie that you have to see teacher in a few minutes), (not useful as they would not care about it)
2) Tell them you will strip willingly in front of them (not useful as they prefer the excitement)
3) Tackle one of them (not useful, as there are usually many participants)
4) Ask for help. If you see your friends or classmates around. (HIGH RISK FACTORS: 1) YOU FRIENDS MIGHT GET BONDED INSTEAD 2) THEY MIGHT JOIN IN THE FUN)
5) Struggle until they give up and change target
6) Let them bond you (this method is highly effective, CAUTION: 后果自负)
Known advocates of bonding: larry, chay choong etc.
Known victims of bonding: myself, jia quan etc.
Known locations for bonding: 4I etc. -_-
LOL
3. To juniors (ie. Sec2s and 1s)
I do hope that ur can improve ur attitude in orchestra practice from now on and talk less, play more. The future of viola section is in ur hands. Btw, do visit the blog and tag more often as the blog will be managed by u all in the near future and all the seniors certainly do not want the blog to become dead, rite?
Have Fun,
Hao Meng
