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.
