After 4 years in the orc, all our dear sec4s are leaving us. Today marks the last official day you play with us, as an orchestra, as THE viola section.

All of you had been great seniors. With your guidance, the viola section has become the most united section. You guys were always there, when we needed help, when we needed an outlet for ranting, when we were emo and down, when we were happy and high. You guys were great leaders, leading the viola section to perfection. Although perfection have not been reached, but I believe that all of us have improved tremendously with all your help.

You guys have left a legacy, and it is up to us to carry on the tradition. You've set the standards, and we shall fulfill in, and maybe even surpass it! I remember when Chay Choong's batch left, he set 4 targets for the viola section. If I remember correctly, there was one about being the most discipline section and another about loving music.

I believe the loving music is a common trait every music player shares. All of us really can't survive without music. We practically go to orc room everyday (except for Sundays) to have sects or practice. I think we would have no problem achieving this.

The 2nd target was being the most disciplined section. Indeed, the viola section have been known to be the most disciplined section. However, this tradition is being neglected from one batch to the other. Therefore, I hope that we can work harder to achieve this.

I would also like to set a new target for ourselves. The viola section shall be the most bonded section. That means we shall not neglect our juniors. We shall try our best to ensure that our juniors woould feel a sense of belonging here. I also hope that through this, we can improve the standards of the violists.

Well, that's all for now. Though you guys are no longer part of the orc officially, you will forever remain as a part of the viola section. Hence, your names will still remain in this blog, and your permission to post will stay as long as the viola section remains. We will ensure the doors of the sacred orc room is opened for all of you. The next official practice with you guys around, prepare to witness a whole new viola section! This will not be a 'goodbye' but rather a 'see you later'. Lastly, let's all remember this question to ask ourselves. Do you have the passion?

Regards,
zy (sorry for the length of my posts)

Zi Cong, our imba guest player. Being in violin 2 for about 4 years, you've adapted to the viola section fast and well. You were able to play and join the orchestra, despite playing with a new instrument. You are a very responsible secretary, that never fails to collect orc funds and ticket money in time. Your efforts to blend into the viola section can be seen in many different occasions. Although you won't be with us in the upcoming concert, we will still remember you as part of the viola section.

Dear Seniors,

This will be your last two to three months in HCISO, viola section. Though the time we spent as a section may not be very long, but these moments will forever be remembered in our hearts. You all will be leaving soon, so will we. You have done your parts as seniors guiding us, and we shall fulfill our part by working hard. Here, I represent the whole section to show our gratitude.

Zhao Hong, you've always been a good SL. You lead us, teach us and help us. You treat us as friends, and help us to succeed. In everything you do, you want to help the section and the orchestra. You decorated the sacred altar, the notice board and done a lot for the orchestra (with a little help from Alvin). You lead the section, and feel responsible for everyone. You are the one who make the viola sectionals the most productive ones. You are truly the best SL we could have.

Cong Ning. Thanks for being a good ASL. You are the one who organises outings and galvanises the section. Although there are a lot of failures *ahem* Sentosa *ahem*, but you never give up. You would TRY very hard to keep sectionals productive, and hope that we would improve. You dislike us niao-ing each other from the section, and wants to keep our team spirit high. You like to see us as a section, as an orchestra. We would have to learn this from you.

Jia Quan. You are not as good as Zhao Hong and Cong Ning in terms of playing, but you are the one who keeps are spirits high. You niao everyone, and make everyone happy. You like to crack jokes and find humour, and you care for the section. You treasure everyone in the section, and would not hesitate to help us when we are in need. You are a listener. You listen to our complains and such. Even though you are the vice-chairman, we can approach you as a friend, not as a subordinate. We apprieciate your existance very much.

Thank you all of you. We shall give you our full co-operation in these last few weeks. We will ensure a pleasant memory for all of you. We shall and we will make this concert a success. This is the last time we will shine together, as one viola section, in HCISO. You have left a legacy for us, and we will continue this legacy. We shall raise HCISO viola section to even greater heights. We would part, but it won't be long before we meet again. But before that, let us cherrish this last moments, as section buddys, as cca buddys. Let's make the upcoming concert a success together!

Regards,
zheryin
