Being The Lord's Servant

Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance as your reward, and that the Master you are serving is Christ.

Colossians 3:23-24 (New Living Translation)

Pertandingan Pancaragam Sekolah-Sekolah Menengah Peringkat Negeri Sarawak 2009

The marvelous competition was held at SK S.E.D.C in Sibu, Sarawak two weeks ago. Due to my hectic schedule, I only managed to blog about it today. =S



This years competition was indeed very different compared to the past. We stayed at a Pastoral Centre in Sibu which a very wonderful place where we have 16 dogs to guard the place. ;)

This year, before we enter the field for competition, I could say that 90% of the SJSMSB members cried not because of sadness or regretful of something but we felt something. When the instructors & teachers told us that we have supporters from all around Malaysia & also London, we were so touched that we cried & indeed we performed a superb show that caught all the crowds around SK S.E.D.C.





After our performance, I felt very relieved because I have done my best. I am sure the others felt the same way too. I told myself after the performance, "I have done my best. Even if we don't win this year, it's okay because we had performed a tremendous show. It is also quite impossible for us not to win. =.="

The results are as below:

I am sure what we had practiced before was fruitful. After the competition, we had a short session with the judges to hear about their comments on our show. I am sure we had to work hard & improve after this.

On the night of the day of competition, a parent from our SJSMSB sponsored us to a dinner at Kingwood Hotel & we really had fun that night. It was full of surprises that was unexpected.

After the competition, we came back to Kuching the next day & we had another performance in our very own school. We performed to our school mates & even visitors(primary school students from Singapore).





I had no comment about the performance. Haha. Overall, SJSMSB improved a lot since 2006 & we improved every time when we run through the show in Sibu according to our instructors. ;)

What's up? We will go to the Nationals which will be held in Johor Bahru in July(according to public sources). SJSMSB might also go to Wonju, Korea to join The 1st Asia-Pacific Marching Bands Championship Wonju 2009.

I would like to thank everybody for their continuous support towards SJSMSB especially our parents, teachers, instructors & supporters. THANK YOU. I would also like to thank all the readers of my blog & I really hope that you will pray for SJSMSB so that we can end our season in Wonju or even KLWMBC 2009. THANK YOU

GOD BLESS !! ORA Et. Labora !
